We’ve always been rather fond of sports games compilations, even if they’re not overly common on consoles anymore. God bless publisher GameMill, then, for announcing Looney Tunes: Wacky World of Sports – an arcade outing featuring four sports, including basketball, tennis, golf, and football for up to four players.
Featuring nine iconic characters with unique special moves, you’ll be able to choose from Bugs Bunny, Lola Bunny, Daffy Duck, Porky Pig, Elmer Fudd, Sylvester, Taz, Wile E. Coyote, and the Road Runner. There’ll also be a ton of familiar backdrops, including Porky’s Barn, Foghorn’s Farm, and Road Runner’s Canyon. As you’d expect, Acme will be on hand to provide some power-ups.
The press release teases: “Compete against friends and family with the Looney Tunes squad in basketball, soccer, golf and tennis. Play your way solo or in four-player local co-op and choose the characters that best suit your play style. Avoid wacky obstacles and gain power-ups to incite chaos as you control your favourite Looney Tunes all-stars!”
While its output can be up-and-down, GameMill has generally carved out a niche for itself based on these licensed properties. The last Looney Tunes sports game, Galactic Sports, launched as a PS Vita exclusive in 2015, and was fun despite its flaws. We’re genuinely looking forward to this new compilation, then, even if we’re anticipating some ropey gameplay in places.

Should've called it Sports Jam
I actually thought the trailer looked pretty good, although seeing GameMill's name attached to it is a bit concerning.
@jvecc Sports Jam was so freakin' good! I miss games like that.
I always had this idea that the next Everybody's Golf game should be more of a sports game compilation called Everybody's Sports. I wish it would have happened.
Thought this looked good until thes started showing the other sports. If they had just kept it to basketball with a huge roster and ripped off NBA jam gameplay with rediculous moves this would be awsome.
I miss Looney Tunes so I'm in. 🙂
This is reminds me of Tiny Toon Adventure: ACME All Stars on Sega Genesis

I used to played that game a lot with my friends. Good times.
I was hoping for Baseball as well. But I am not complaining either way.
Reminds me of this Looney Tunes basketball game I used to play on the NES as a kid. Can't remember the name of it.
Looks great! I was hoping for more sports like in the SNES Tiny Toons Adventures Wild and Wacky Sports. One of my all time favorite SNES games!
