(Switch)
Saburo (Switch) originally appeared as an easter egg to replace the Sportsmate CPU with a Mii CPU in version 1.2.0 of Nintendo Switch Sports. His Mii data file can be found in
His Mii name in his Mii data file is
His Mii data file does not contain any unused data.
While the names of the CPU Miis from Wii Sports Resort were also given to the CPU Sportsmates characters in Nintendo Switch Sports, version 1.2.0 of the game added 10 CPU Miis as an easter egg, activated by holding down L + ZL or R + ZR when on the CPU configuration screen. Saburo is one of the CPUs to have gotten a Mii version, however his Mii has been altered since his appearance on the Wii. Below is a comparison between his Wii appearance and his Switch appearance.
In order for Saburo (Switch) to appear in Nintendo Switch Sports v1.2.0, one must begin a game of soccer (Four-on-Four), and on the CPU configuration screen (where the player selects the difficulty of the CPU), hold down L + ZL on the left Joy-Con controller, or R + ZR on the right Joy-Con controller. If done successfully, a confirmation noise will play, and when the player begins the game, the Sportsmate CPU will be replaced with a Mii CPU using this Mii. The Mii CPU has the in-game title "Legend". As Four-on-Four soccer is done with four players on each team, Saburo's team consists of Gwen (Switch), Anna (Switch), and Miguel (Switch).
It should be noted that Saburo (Switch) is the only Mii to have an appearance in Nintendo Switch Sports like this whose Wii appearance was not a champion of a sport in Wii Sports or Wii Sports Resort, aside from Yoshi (Switch). However, Yoshi (Wii) does have a history of being the previous champion of table tennis before Lucía (Wii) took over, so Yoshi still retains some significance, unlike Saburo.
The purpose for the Miis in Nintendo Switch Sports being different from their Wii originals is unknown, however an educated guess is possible to make by analyzing the Mii appearances and the data we have. To learn more, visit Lucía (Switch)'s page, as the explanation involves her Mii the most.
