Use dual mouse controls to move your wheels by sliding both Joy-Con 2 controllers on a flat surface forward to move ahead or move just one controller to quickly turn and pivot and the other back. Once you grab the ball, simply raise your hand and flick your wrist to shoot. Rack up extra points by performing tricks like doing bunny hops, backflips, and even launching yourself off a half-pipe. You can also clap, wave and high-five your teammates using motion controls 1!
