What a long drawn out way, of saying absolutely nothing at all. Plenty of people like sports games, even the generic ones. There are plenty of games that are uploaded on this site that are generic, or bare no artistic relevancy or merit.. everything about video games is subjective to the person that is playing. Therefore I think what he was trying to say was that they're just as important, and deserve equal attention as non-sports titles. As with any artistic outlet, I believe all forms of the video game media deserve equal attention, because in the end everyone has different taste, everyone is going to appreciate a different variety.

Even though I'm not the biggest sports fan (besides football ), I still enjoy quite a number of sports games. Regardless of how one might feel, they deserve to have as much attention as most action games as video games are, first and foremost, an art form.

The statements that “they’re appreciated” and are “a large part of sales” have no bearing on the original (spontaneous strawman) claim that people act like the games “don’t matter.”

In reality, the generic sports games that only “sports game fans” play, meaning people who don’t or barely play any games other than the official sorts games, have no overall design relevance for the broader phenomenon of games. Nobody cares whether they sell….many of the worst garbage things in the world “sell well”, so that’s not an argument. They generally don’t do anything interesting in an artistic manner that interacts with the scene of other games/creators (or if they do, no one is paying attention).

Sports games that have appeal *as games*, rather than as official sports consumption, are the ones that have an effect on designers, broader players, etc.

If you like this or that game, that’s fine, but why launch in with a strawman (“people say they don’t matter”) followed by vague statements that don’t even refute the strawman.

Thanks, a lot of people online act like they don't matter, but sports games are appreciated and were (and still are) a large part of most consoles sales. Appreciate you adding them!
(I used to play a lot of NBA Shootout, NBA In the Zone, and NBA Action for PS1 and Saturn as a kid, and I don't think any of them were on here in their original ISO form)

Michael Jordan was undoubtedly one of the best players that Represented the NBA's Chicago Bulls team at the time, although the game itself isn't bad for a 1v1 basketball game for the Mega Drive/Genesis, but it has its own thing at least.
