Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Nintendo Switch Sports has become a hit with fans old and new, as the game has quickly made its way to the top of the UK sales charts.

In our review of the game, we said: “It’s a strong continuation of a tried and tested formula that will find near-universal appeal with anybody who remembers the glory days of the Nintendo Wii.”

Announced in the latest Nintendo Direct and released in April 2022, the game is selling like hot cakes and could be on track to be one of Nintendo’s best selling Switch games in the near future.

Favourites like bowling and tennis are on display but there are a number of new gaming modes, such as volleyball, badminton and football which make use of the Switch’s joy-con hardware.

Best pre-order deals for ‘Nintendo Switch Sports’

Nintendo Switch Sports is now available on Switch consoles. But players should note that, as motion controls are required to play, it will not be compatible with the Nintendo Switch lite unless separate joy-cons are paired with it.

A digital version of the game game is currently available to pre-order through the Nintendo website (£31.99, Nintendo.co.uk) but if you want to play the game’s “penalty shootout” mode, the game will require a legstrap peripheral which can be purchased with a physical copy of the game (£39.99, Nintendo.co.uk).
