Gameplay
Wii Sports Resort
Players hold a Wii Remote vertically and swing it up and down to throw a basketball.
3 Point Contest
In 3 Point Contest, players compete to see who can sink 25 balls in 60 seconds. They point the Wii Remote down and press 
to pick up a ball. Orange balls are worth 1 point and blue/white balls are worth 2. If the player gets a perfect (all balls get into the hoop) then the game will award the player with extra points for the remaining time left. The maximum possible score is 50.2 [1]
Pickup Game
In Pickup Game, players play a regular match of Basketball. When they have the ball, they can press 
or the 
to pass the ball, shake the wii remote to dribble, and to prepare a shot, where they have 5 seconds to jump and shoot. Making a jump without shooting or taking too long forfeits the ball to the other team. When they are on defense, they can swing the Wii Remote to trophy to steal the ball, but missing may cause them to fall over. The team with the most points after 3 minutes wins. If both teams end up with the same score, it's a draw.
Nintendo Switch Sports
Basketball is planned to be added to Nintendo Switch Sports on July 9th, 2024,[2] featuring 2v2 play locally and online, along with Three-Point Challenge and Five-Streak Battle locally.[3]
