Understand Controller Support

Joy-Cons are the only usable controllers for Nintendo Switch Sports. Pro Controllers and other controllers supported by Nintendo Switch won't work, even if they are wired or wireless.

Note that Switch Lite won't work on Nintendo Switch Sports unless you have an extra pair of Joy-Cons. Although even if you got Joy-Cons for it, it will still be hard to play the game because of its small screen and can't be docked on a large monitor or TV.
