Poll: Will You Be Using Motion Controls In Mario Golf: Super Rush?

Probably not... my hunch is that the precision will be better with joystick input. Outside of a few games that were seemingly built with motion in mind (Ring Fit, Splatoon, maybe a couple others), I feel like motion control as a selling point for a game/system has long passed.

If I don't have to deal with joycon drift after using the motion parts...

I loved Tiger Woods on the Wii so I will give them a shot. Hoping they will be just as good or even better.

Motion control should of stayed dead in 2010.

This is Nintendo hoping the casuals would return someday. Good luck, maybe Skyward Sword HD will help convince them too.

If it's anything like golf in Wii sports resort HELL YES

@Ghost_of_Hasashi Animal crossing is the new casual bait lol kinda weird considering really only intense fans liked it before

I’ll give the motion controls a shot, just to see. But, I’m probably gonna rock standard controls.

I don't think the controller is really made for motion controls, it's too small. At least with the Wii remote you could somewhat hold it with two hands.

@ecco6t9 I disagree. There are benefits to motion controls like better bow aim in Breath Of The Wild.

I’ll use motion controls if I can find a little golf club shaped joy con holder

@ecco6t9 should have*

For us, this will primarily be a family game with casual players, so yes, we'll be using the motion controls. I just hope they're (at least) as sophisticated as those of Wii Sports Resort's golfing, where the twist and strength of your swing actually have an effect on the ball, as opposed to inputing those parameters via button-presses beforehand and the act of swinging the joy-con merely behaving as a swing activation switch. It's hard to tell from the video what the case may be. I wish Nintendo would post a video going more in-depth into the actual functionality of the motion controls.

I'm glad motion controls are still included as an option. I probably won't use them but I may try it out when playing with friends. It's also cool for casual players who may enjoy an experience more similar to wii sports.

Nope. Personally I've found motion controls in most games to be gimmicky and honestly not that fun. The only notable exception was Wii Sports Bowling, which nailed the feeling perfectly.

@Fulbright
Gyro aiming in Splatoon 2 is another big one

Oh heck no, that sounds awful!

I vote "I'll try motion controls out of curiosity, then stick to conventional controls".

No motion controls... not for this not for anything.

I can't say without trying them first. Wii sports and resort golf controls are awesome. Any other golf game with motion controls doesn't even compare. Strangely wii sports club on wii u controls weren't even as good. Unless this can match or top wii sports controls, which I highly doubt but sure wish it would, I will sadly have to use standard controls.

IF I get the game ill probably use a bit of motion controls, but I don't know if I'll use them a lot or not it depends if i like them

No. I won't. Standard for me.

Absolutely not. Apart from gyro aiming in some games I hate motion controls. I play games to relax not wave my controller/joycons around the place.

It's the reason I skipped the Wii era.

Could change once I get a try on them, but the current plan is traditional for single player/ story mode and motion for anything multiplayer. Multi for these games always seem so lighthearted anyways, so I like to just go for it and not worry if a shot gets botched by a weird input.

It's a cool feature to have but I'll never use it. I don't use motion controls on Mario Tennis Aces either. The only motion controls I love is gyro aiming. Other then that I stick with thumb sticks and buttons.

We'll certainly be giving the motion controls a go in this house. Golf and tennis tended to work well with motion controls on Wii and the Switch JoyCons are more optimised than those.

There really should have been a premium physical edition with Mario and Luigi themed golf club attachments for the Joy-Con (and perhaps Yoshi, Peach, Toad, and Bowser ones sold separately if they really wanted to bleed us dry).

I would love to play this with motion controls, but the Joy-Con are far too small.

"I'm using tilt controls!"

Well, no, I will be playing entirely handheld, so normal controller.

Nooop, I hate motion controls with a passion!

Bearing in mind I love Arms but only play it without motion controls I believe my response is obvious

Myself, probably no.
Our kids, definitely yes

I will if they feel as good as they did in Wii Sports.

Nope the waggle generation has left the room!

Unless I want a change of pace no, I have been playing Mario Golf since the Gameboy Advance days so I am just going to stick with what I know, good old fashioned buttons.

My Dads favourite game is still Wii Sports Resort Golf with motion + and he’s been wanting essentially for the same experience but with more courses for years. I’m so happy he’s finally got a new game to replace that same style of game. I’m going to give him my old Switch and buy him this game. I’m also a big fan of both Mario Golf and motion games in general. Bring it on!

Doubt it will work with the JoyCon Drift™ feature.

The controllers are priced high for tech that’s not warranted. Nintendo blamed developers for not utilizing the WiiU screen pad but barely used it in their first party games.
Sure, some people like the gimmicky uses of the controllers. But there is no must have game for Switch because of these controls. Surely they can give us a $60 port of Wii Sports.

Motion control...uhh NO.

Only reason I'm interested in the game is for the motion control. Need more casual games to play with the family.

I wouldn't bother with any sports game w/o motion controls. I play games to have fun, not git gud, and I just find them more fun that way.

That said, still waiting for a definitive on 2 or 4 players on 1 Switch, really only getting it for rush and battle modes w/ the family. If those are only 2 player, probably a pass.

No. I do like motion controls, but I remember fighting against them all the time in Wii Sports Golf.

Mario Golf requires a lot of accuracy and precision that I don't believe is achievable with motion controls.

The biggest exception to this was We Love Golf on the Wii, but that game rubber-banded the issues so far in the other direction it was hard for me not to get a Birdie every hole.

@Lord Guess you didn't play Mario Odyssey?

@rjejr Next on the list of Mario Sports revivals, Sluggers? I'd love to pitch and swing the bat with motion controls.

Golf, not so much. I'll probably use buttons unless it feels surprisingly good during a test run.

Yes! Wii Golf is the only golf game I've ever enjoyed and that was due to the motion controls, so I'm really hoping this will work as well.

@Bret Yeah we REALLY need a new Sluggers game. That game was so good on Wii, showed just how limited Wii Sports baseball was. I made 2 teams of Miis w/ all of our family and friends, was great playing w/ my 2 young kids at the time w/ all of their relatives. Also had a decent single player story mode. Baseball is pretty big in Japan and in the US, it's surprising they don't at least give Sluggers the HD DX treatment b/c it's been 13 years between baseball games, it's not like Switch is getting MLB The Show, even if PC and Xbox do.

Like so many things Nintendo Logic, I don't get it. 🤷‍♂️

@rjejr I do really love Super Mega Baseball, but the presence of that shouldn't prevent Mario Sluggers from returning.

@Bret Yeah, I was thinking there might have been an indie baseball game on Switch while I was typing that but those games aren't getting the marketing muscle of either The Show or a Mario Sluggers game. Certainly more tennis and gold games on Switch and Wii U than baseball. And 3DS I'd guess though I don't know.

Maybe next week in the Direct. Who knows, it's Nintendo.

@rjejr I have major doubts that they'd announce another Mario Sports game before Super Rush comes out, but I sure wouldn't complain!

@Bret Well seeing that it's Nintendo announcing a baseball game in June to have it release in November makes perfect sense. 😉

Will give the motion controls a go first but can see myself going back to standard controls soon after. Motion controls might draw some people to the game though so it's good to include them.

Absolutely not — d'you know how much precision is required in golf? I don't think my gibbon-like flailings are going to be of much use on the fairway...
