@skywake Again, the thing I was specifically talking about wouldn't be a new game.

It's A Link Between Worlds, the 2013 game, in HD. A port. A remaster. Not a new game.

Now Playing: Mario & Luigi Brothership, Sonic x Shadow Generations

Now Streaming: The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom

And now the video is gone. FREAKY

Be yourself, no matter who you are!
For me, that's being madly in love with fictional characters. Plz don't judge.
Yes, my first anime was High School DxD. Don't ask or judge!

A moot point given I was trying to argue that it wasn't crazy for it to be a thing even if it was a brand new game. If it's a HD remaster that's even less unprecedented than a new release. If you include remasters we've had basically one Zelda every year for almost 10 years.

Even so, I think it would make more sense if they did something new in the style of A Link Between Worlds in HD. Like what Majora's Mask was to OoT or Spirit Tracks was to Phantom Hourglass. And if you think about it A Link Between Worlds was built on A Link to the Past. Why not do A Link's Awakening equivalent on Switch in HD?

I could fake that video. It would take me a while and I'd never bother, but my basic editing skills could pull that off.

You guys had me at blood and semen.

What better way to celebrate than firing something out of the pipe?

Ahhhh 2018...the HARD launch of the Switch!

I'm that guy who gets way too excited about rumors and believes every one, so I'll address all the reasons people think the video is fake with explanations from Reddit. (It's probably fake though.)

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe takes up the wrong amount of space.
It's possible that, since this would be a test system if real, the games are simply dummy files meant to see if games load properly on 5.0.

The YouTube app has the wrong icon.
PS4, Apple TV, and Xbox One use that icon.

The "g" in "Legend of Zelda" is in the wrong font.
I actually cannot find a really good explanation for this, but something I noticed is that the g's in "Online Lounge" and "Messages" is correct. This leaker is kind of stupid if they got the font right before and then got it wrong. The explanation I found on Reddit (from a game dev, no less) was that Nintendo just forgot as this is still a beta.

Too good to be true, I think. I could never imagine they have the resources and technical know how to pull all of that off with a single update. If they could, it makes me wonder what the point of even putting effort into that online app was for, considering they probably knew their plans for their online service long before this leak

@Operative2-0 It looks like the app is optional as you can seemingly transfer and control rooms from your phone too, likely for quick mutes etc.

Bit like the PS app actually.

@Strix That Breath of the Wild 'theme' was just a commonly available wallpaper. There was no accompanying change in sound, nor any music, nothing changed apart from the background, which is easy to fake. Is anyone going to pay for a theme as half-hearted as that?

I've been playing Guns, Gore & Canolli which I think is great fun. Just saw some new footage from the sequel and it looks superb. It looks like there's a lot more variety and the game play looks genuinely brilliant. I really hope this will be coming to Switch too.

@OorWullie I'm happy it looks like you can aim diagonally this time.

@gcunit Well, it is Nintendo. They could've done it halfheartedly. Another explanation was that it's a test theme that is not yet completed.

I think it's fake but the contents are the kind of stuff I'd expect from Nintendo given their decision to make online a paid subscription.
