I know its based a lot on optimism but I do think Mario Golf is in development. I imagine Ultra Smash provided a solid foundation for Aces and the team required is fairly small compared to something built from the ground up.
I also think the lack of sport titles on Switch means Nintendo will have to to it alone and make there own and these two titles would be a great start.
There's a reason we're getting Aces instead of a new Mario Strikers or Golf game despite them being absent for far longer. Aces is clearly an extension of Ultra Smash. That turd was half-baked, it was removed from the oven way too early, there's no way Aces can be worse. I prefer Strikers and Golf personally. And I'd love a new Mario Golf game out of all the sports games Nintendo make. I'd change the swing meter though.
Nintendo needed something on Wii U near the end as it was continually starved, they kept all the good stuff for Switch. They shoveled out some awful crap. They probably looked at it like, "we're going to rerelease Wii U games on Switch anyway, so we might as well give Wii U owners the demo version of Aces and charge them €60 for the privilege disgrace".

I wonder if there will be Mario Martial Mix.

Oh, Mario and other guys will be barechested for Boxing / Kickboxing.
Toki Tori 2+ is OUT NOW on Switch Experience Toki Tori's Epic Puzzle
Adventure on the go, for the first time ever, as Toki Tori 2+: Nintendo Switch Edition is OUT NOW in the eShop. In this blog post, we explain why this is the best version of the game so far.
I have no issue with Aces being an improved and expanded version of Ultra Smash. I love tennis games but I didn't buy that one as I knew beforehand what I would have got if I had,or in this case wouldn't have got. I left a comment in this thread several months ago saying I'd like to see a new Mario Tennis game for Switch that uses the same engine as US but has all the features Ultra Smash should have had and more. The graphics and gameplay itself were good, just there was nothing to do in it. It would have been a shame to see what was half built be wasted.
I loved Toki Tori, I completed it on Wii and then bought it again on Wii U just to support the devs. It's sequel however I didn't enjoy at all. It was a lovely looking game and certainly unique but I just didn't find it to be fun to play. I think gave up on it about half way out of boredom, rather than challenge.
I think there's another AWOL franchise we're forgetting... Punchout. It hasn't been absent as long as F-Zero, but the last acknowledgement of the franchise was Smash 4, half a decade after the last game.
And yes, I'm aware ARMS exists. But comparing the two is like apples and oranges. One is a fighting game. The other is a puzzle game cleverly disguised as a boxing game.
I would like to see Next Boxing games for Switch
Instead of Next Punchout for Switch, how about some Cartoonish Chibi Boxing like my design with Gameplay like ARMS (Without extension arms and weapons) + Character customization + Live Mode (Career Mode + Live Simulationlike Animal Crossing) ?
JK: Shining Resonance Refrain, although brand new for the West, is a remaster of the PS3 game Shining Resonance, which was originally released only in Japan. This is the first time we are bringing it to the West. Along with improved graphics, Shining Resonance Refrain includes all the DLC released for the original, plus a brand-new “Refrain” mode with new content, which unlocks the Imperial Princess Excella and Dragonslayer Jinas as party members. This new mode is intended for those who want a second playthrough or who previously played the game released in Japan.

I get the whole Punchout is a puzzler disguised as a fighter and it's different to Arms but with Arms existing and Smash Bros and Pokken how could Nintendo market it to the mainstream?? We get what Punchout is about but surely the average consumer would just see it as 'another fighter'.
To be fair it's never stopped them with 2D platformers...

Outlast :Bundle of Terror is out now on PAL region Eshop's. It costs £19.99 and comes in at 5.7GB. It can be bought for the equivalent of £16.76 on the Russian Eshop though. I'm assuming it will release later today on the US Eshop probably for $19.99 so that will be the cheapest place to get it.
Can't believe they just released it like that. The last news on it was when it was announced as coming back in December. All they said was it would release in Q1. So we have 3 of the scariest horror games ever made, Layers of Fear, Outlast and Detention all arriving over an 8 day period. Outlast 2 is also supposed to arriving Q1.
