Nintendo Switch Sports Resort, the sequel to the beloved Wii Sports Resort, can now be purchased for £26.11 instead of the usual £50, thanks to a TopCashback sign-up bonus and Argos cashback.
The game, which launched at the beginning of the month, is available at Argos for £41.49, undercutting Nintendo's £49.99 price. However, by registering as a new member of TopCashback, shoppers can claim a £15 sign-up bonus on their first purchase, reducing the effective price to £26.11 for new Argos customers, or £26.32 for existing Argos customers.
How the Deal Works
To get the deal, new TopCashback members should register via the link, search for Argos, select 'Get Cashback Now', and buy the Nintendo Switch game. Cashback should track and appear in TopCashback accounts within seven working days of purchase.
The prices are calculated on click and collect orders. For delivery, an additional £4.95 charge applies, but even with delivery, the total still undercuts Nintendo's price.
What's New in the Game
Enhanced with pinpoint Joy-Con tracking, the game provides tactile, responsive feedback. There's a split-screen capability for multiplayer, perfect for family game nights.
The game features a 12-sport collection, including familiar golf, bowling, and tennis, plus new sports like power cruising and skateboarding using Joy-Con 2 mouse controls.
Early Player Reactions
Gamers have expressed they've been left 'in awe'. One player on Metacritic said: "As someone who played the original Wii Sports when it first released, and was awed by the rudimentary real-life movements being mimicked on screen."
Another gamer said: "A fun but unambitious new sports game collection that features the best motion controls the series has ever seen, but disappointingly few surprises."
Tom Hutchison of The Daily Star said: "A big benefit of this game of course remains the physicality of the rivalry between household members." He added: "Archery too felt great, pulling your arms apart holding two controllers to fire an arrow. Very good. But others fell flat on me."
Basketball didn't gel well, with odd ways of moving through the court hindering the feel of a real game. The mouse-as-skateboard feature felt like a way of trying to justify the Joy-Con 2 mouse controls a bit too much.
