Thank you for this. I was looking to buy one of the three Mario sports games but now I’ll just get a different game

I think there are much better games to get on Switch. The Mario sports games are fine, but nothing spectacular.

Chain-Chomp should be in more of the sports games

Not for $60. It is on my wish list with other Mario games but I'm not getting any of them if they stay at $60. I may have to look for physical copy on sale or used ones.

I agree with most of the video except the comment at the end that there is not enough competitive depth. This game is incredibly well thought out. s lacking as there is in game modes and overall content, it is hard carried by the excellent gameplay. It might not be apparent at a glance but there is a reason people still play it. Ranked is starting to get pretty dead but like Golf Super Rush, M&S 2020 and dare I say Smash Ultimate, the meat and potatoes is in private lobbies. Sure the Mario sports games aren't as populated as Smash but you get the idea.

Yeah, I suppose you're right. It's just hard to see the competitive depth outside of very small in-person tournaments and a dying online space. But I agree, the gameplay mechanics are very competitively sound and overall highly well-made.

I never had the opportunity to play this game, I wish they made available this game again for NSO Game Trials or it get released as a Nintendo Selects brand for cheaper. I don't wanna buy a game that has so little content for full price.

Agreed! Power Tour is where it's at!

I still remember the hardest part of the story for me was that rally challenge with Kamek. Literally harder than the final boss because of that stupid pole messing everything up lol. But anyway I still come back to this game sometimes but the online is very dead unfortunately at least the last few times I tried to play it.

For me, Switch Mario sports games are " just fun arcade sports games". With the good and the bad things those words imply.
