Topic: The Nintendo Switch Thread

So according to the Japanese eShop, the Legend Edition and Legend Edition Gold versions of NBA 2K18 will be available to download in addition to the standard version.

Also, the base download for the standard edition is apparently 6.8GB. Where did the previously reported 25GB come from? Or is there a hefty day 1 patch for the game (which wouldn't surprise me in the slightest?)

Edit: Apparently the listing mentions you need more than 6GB of additional storage space. That's still only ~12.6GB...

So, if the Direct is at 11pm, does that mean it will be 18 rated?

@GrailUK My body is ready....

@GrailUK Depends on what they show of Skyrim. 😉

@GrailUK The Direct is at 5pm actually, or 3pm, or whatever depending on where you watch it from.

I was thinking, if a Smash 4 port came with all the DLC would the age rating increase to 16+/M because of Bayonetta? I know there's separate age rating rules for DLC and disc content.

@Octane 0:00 CEST if I'm correct (For us Europeans)

@Grumblevolcano They've already toned her down so she only half-strips for her Wicked Weaves, and of course none of the usual gore present in her series is in Smash. The game already has ''mild suggestive themes'' listed in it's rating, most likely courtesy of Zero Suit Samus, who wears just as revealing clothing as Bayo, if not more so.

I just seem to remember a late direct for Wii U and that turned out to be 18 rated because of Fatal Frame.

I boycott Smash for objectifying women.......oh and Shulk. 😜

100 minutes to go. The end of Sony is nigh...

Here's a prediction:

Neon Pink (left) and Neon Green (right) JoyCons.

Animal Crossing inc. Train to zone.

(Everquest people from back in the day? Anyone?)

Hopefully Smash 4 Switch and P* stuff.

Watching a game of FIFA 18 on Switch. It's actually this RedCube episode from Nintendo EU that I happened upon. And... I'm really into it! They've got 2 player local coop with single Joycon, heck they've even got local wireless where each person uses their own system, no internet needed.

That's legit.

Oh spam, I just realized I'm in central time now. I gotta get home fast, it starts in 25 minutes!

I've never expected Bethesda to support this hard. You've my kudos, Bethesda.

Did that just happen?!

..DOOM?!

..WOLFENSTEIN?!?!

!!!

DOOM?! WOLFENSTEIN II THE NEW COLOSSUS?!!!

THANK YOU BETHESDA!

So no announcement of Sonic & Mario Olympics or Mario Party (but apparently that Mario Party remake was somewhat true). However, even the NEW games shown appear to been for the holiday season.

Only thing that got a window release was Kirby into next year, so guessing March for that. And we have a December/January Direct after this, so I assume that we MAY be seeing a drier first part of the year from Nintendo as for what we know now. I mean... This year has been pretty heavy with nonstop releases on Switch from them since launch.
