Nintendo has released some of the best games this year for Switch owners and they have thoroughly enjoyed them as well. However, even the most amazing games can sometimes tend to feel frustrating. Especially due to the occurrence of unknown and unexpected bugs.
Something similar happened last week with Nintendo Switch Sports. The game received an update, few days back, after which it was required to temporarily suspend it. The reason was a bug that caused the Switch exclusive to crash. Now, this issue has been resolved by Nintendo.

Furthermore, anyone who is a member of Nintendo Switch Online and owns Switch Sports will have their membership extended by an extra week. Maybe the Mario maker is trying to compensate for the problems faced by the players. Well, it’s a good thing to please the fans this way. Not just that, points earned between October 17th and November 2nd while playing “Play Globally” will be doubled.

How did y’all mess this game up

This whole Switch sports fiasco is just sad, the game barely had any sports and they somehow messed it up
I just hope they stop with this "free updates" method they've so stubbornly have adhered to, it just doesn't work for all games
