"Drag x Drive" is a wheelchair basketball game. Players need to use the somatosensory control functions of two Joy-Con 2 handles to simulate the movement of the wheelchair by moving the handles back and forth.
Players can also raise a Joy-Con 2 handle to shoot, striving to throw the ball into the basket and score.
VGC Media once tried Drag x Drive at the Nintendo Switch 2 event in April and found that its control experience was excellent, but there were still many unknowns at the time, including how rich the game play and how highly the game relies on teamwork.
