Switch Sports is one of my most anticipated games of the year.
So a follow-up is under intense pressure.
History has gotten further away for us as a culture.
My parents were born in the late 60s, and grew up in the 70s and 80s.
But I had access to and appreciation for the time before I was born too.
You might be wondering what this has to do with Wii Sports.
If this feels wrong, it should prompt some reflection on how video games preserve culture.
Video games are a much younger medium than film, television, or music.
Nintendo also has a back catalogue, but considering its impressive history, is extremely limited.
The DS eShop is set to close, and was poorly advertised to begin with.
And the reason we badly need Switch Sports is because video games have the worst memories of all.
