Watching motion controls in games are a good way to brighten any day, as we sometimes do absurd things in the name of entertainment. We waggled our way through the Wii generation, and the legacy still lives on thanks to the motion support of the Joy-Con controllers.

And so we present the trailer for Champion Jockey Special on Nintendo Switch, a horse racing game out in Japan on 14th September. Oh yes, giddy up.

Out on the same day will be Winning Post 8, which is more about management and simulation. As a result the two games will have notable connectivity - horses you train in Winning Post 8 can move into Champion Jockey Special, while the jockey can transfer the other way.

It's not a series that typically makes it to the West, so we'll likely have to load up those Japanese eShop accounts to get hold of them. It's just a shame that we can't use the accessory below, in what is possibly the greatest patent diagram of the Wii era.
