Wii Bowling launched back in 2006 alongside the Nintendo Wii as part of the packaged Wii Sports title. Over the years, it’s been a game that has brought people of all ages together for fun.

To see that there are people continuing to enjoy the game, no matter the age is nothing short of heartwarming.

If you want to play some Nintendo bowling but don’t have a Wii, you can bowl in Nintendo Switch Sports that’s out now.
