by game_tinkerer  • 
Fast RMX
Game
7.3/10on IGDB
Released
Use a horizontal Joy-Con each for a local split-screen race. The fast tracks make the smaller stick feel twitchier than it does in Mario Kart. Pick this when both players want sharp turns and the challenge of changing boost colors at speed.

Mario Strikers: Battle League
Game
6.9/10on IGDB
Released
Hold one Joy-Con horizontally each and pick a local match. A single game gives you enough time to try out positioning and passes. The pace is fast, so try playing on the same side against the computer while one of you learns the controls.

Nintendo Switch Sports
Game
7.2/10on IGDB

Start with a local match of tennis or bowling, where one motion-controlled Joy-Con per person is enough. Put the straps on before swinging and give each other room. Check the game’s controller screen before picking other sports or variants, since some expect more hardware.

Go Vacation (2018)

by game_tinkerer  • 
Go Vacation
Game
Released
Explore Kawawii Island with one Joy-Con per player and stop at activities along the way. Compete when you want a score to beat, then spend time wandering the resort together. It’s a good fit when you’d rather pick different activities than commit to a tournament.
