Victor Vran and Shining Resonance Refrain were also both announced after this went public. Even that new Sonic Racing game.

I keep finding more and more games. Games that fall in the "nearly impossible to guess or predict" category.

@JaxonH Ye, I can believe the smaller indie games have more accurate titles. With AAA development, I'm sure the name of the game is among the last things to be decided on.

I never drive faster than I can see. Besides, it's all in the reflexes.

Assuming this isn't real...

I have to wonder how the livin heck did they predict so many impossible to guess titles dead on?

If the day comes this is proven false, I'm gonna be asking that question. Because it seems anything short of a crystal ball would fail to explain it.

@JaxonH Super Smash Bros. for Switch would still sound like a port because the 3DS and Wii U games are the only Smash games that mention the platform they're on. There's only 3 ways Nintendo could've made it clear whether Smash is a port or a new game:
1. Straight up say after the trailer which it is
2. Show any gameplay that would prove it's a new game (don't have any ideas for this given a lot of stuff could just been seen as extra content, even moveset changes could be seen as extra custom moves)
3. If a new game, have a special name for the game like GC had Melee and Wii had Brawl

There's a lot in that list I would want. If even part of that list is true, it's an amazing lineup.

The only part I hope is not true is Metroid Prime 4: Sylux's Revenge. Because that's a terrible name and I don't think that's a good premise for the next game to focus on with Sylux as the protagonist.

"Your time has come, bounty hunter. I will finally exact my non-specific revenge and take over the galaxy!"

@Grumblevolcano
Right, that was my point. Super Smash Bros for Nintendo Switch would surely be a port. And that is exactly what most people were expecting. So if somebody were to guess they probably would have put that down as their guess. But the fact they didn't, the fact the actually have a new game listed... makes it a lot more believable.

Course I firmly believe the Smash Brothers that was announced was a new game. There's no way they would announce a port of a Smash Brothers game and not clearly market it as such. There's over half a dozen other reasons as well which we've been over but, ya.

Lack of gameplay actually indicates is being a new game. Because if it was not a new game they would have no reservations in showing what the game looks like because everyone already knows what the game looks like.

Lack of subtitle also indicates it being a new game. Because if it was not a new game they would have had a proper subtitle or title for it "Smash for Nintendo Switch" or "Smash Bros Deluxe" or whatever. And almost all their new games get announced the exact same way.

Yoshi
Kirby
Fire Emblem
Pokémon
Smash
etc

@JaxonH There's a very easy way that it could be faked, one that's been seen before. They had a genuine leak of information from GDC (Which is where all those titles are from), and combined it with all the stuff they wanted to make this particular leak.

link3710

JaxonH

@link3710
Do you have evidence all those titles are from GDC (genuinely asking) because I don't think all those titles are from GDC. A lot of the legitimate announced titles (like V Rally, Victor Vran, Shining Resonance, new Sonic Racing game, Sonic Mania Plus, etc) are not GDC games afaIk.

If they did have a genuine leak for GDC games though, why taint a legitimate leak with the fanciful? Seems a little counterintuitive to me.

Im all for people shooting this down if there's legitimate evidence it's fake. Best to stop it in its tracks before it goes any further if it's not real. But I just haven't seen any evidence yet. That's an interesting theory but I just don't think it holds water.

Perhaps someone else can take a stab though. Which I'm sure the entire Internet is doing right now. If there's a weakness to this... people will find it. You can bet on that

@JaxonH Beats me, and I suppose not all of them are. It still could be a legitimate leak with more added on, that's not unheard of. As for why someone would do that...? Why do people make fake leaks in general? I don't really know.

@subpopz I'd see Sylux being the main villain with a title like that. As for the connection, if they were to follow it on directly from the 100% Prime 3 ending I'd expect a Prime Trilogy remaster released around a year before launch. We've seen it so often on the 1st party front (Microsoft/Sony/Nintendo) that earlier games for story based franchises are remastered for the new system that doesn't have backwards compatibility so newcomers can properly enjoy the new game when it comes.

Data Mined codes for Nintendo Switch Games that are due in the next 2 years or so. Some are already announced, some are not announced (note that this data mine updates time to time):

That should ring the alarm bells right there. Edited post.jpg

The list was made on Reddit a month ago.

They're just saying the data it was mined from changes, but the original screencap and post of listed games was well documented a month back

@JaxonH Arbitrary scepticism.

Honestly there is stuff on there that is so far into the realm of lol no I have to ask if anything is credible, why ruin it?

Like who expects FFXVI to be out within two years? The damn DLC for 15 goes to 2019!

Amiibo Festival DX?
Wrath of Cortex HD?
FIFA 19?
Star Fox Zero?
Mii Fit?
Mii Party?
Sonic Heroes HD?

Yeah thats a load of BS.

I see a lot of names tossed around in rumours and nothing more, edited to look legit as time goes on.

@YummyHappyPills Okay, so I have to ask, why is FIFA '19 on your list of BS titles? I mean, we got FIFA 18 after all, and it did sell through it's entire initial shipment. There's a good chance it might not happen, but it's not like the rest of those I'd say.

@YummyHappyPills
Nobody said anything about 2 years.

People just noticed some games had 2020 in the title so it means games going at least 2 years into the future. Some of the games might not release for 15 years. All it would take is a simple application filing to be registered for release at an undisclosed date in the future.

Some of those do seem unlikely. But no matter how unlikely they look, if there's no explanation for the games that were correctly predicted... and no viable explanation as to how they were predicted...

Then it's a matter of simple logic, regardless of how believable or unbelievable someone finds a potential release to be.

And most of those you listed seem pretty likely. FIFA 19 is a sure bet. Crash was just announced against all odds, so anyone questioning a Crash remake should perhaps think again. Mii games would fall in line with Nintendo trying to pull in all demographics. The 1-2 Switch and casual 3DS gamer (Tomodachi Life) demographic.

@YummyHappyPills Why is FIFA 19 hard to believe. I have no doubt whatsoever that will be released this year. Especially since the online service will be up and running by then. EA have already said they are happy with 18's sales and said they have more games to come.

If that list is legit then there are several titles in there that will make Nintendo fans happy . 1080 anyone? Supposedly every title from yesterday's Nindies Showcase was in the list from last month. I can believe titles have been added to it in the weeks since though to make it look more legit.

If it is true though then why on earth would Nintendo include so much data to be discovered by miners? Surely they must know by now if stuff is in there, no matter how well hidden it is, it will be found.

I still say that list is fake. It's a shame. I'd really like to see Kirby 64 remade. It's my favorite Kirby game by a wide margin. In fact, I haven't really even enjoyed the others. I'm sad that the Kirby 64 style ended with Kirby 64. =(

@JaxonH Datamined codes for Nintendo Switch games that are due in the next two years or so.

Right at the top of that Imgur link.

No viable explanation to how some games were predicted?

The power of editing.

@link3710 FIFA 19 is on the BS pile as EA stated that they were not planning anything else until they saw demand for the sytem after a full 12 months, i.e. NOW. They wont be making a FIFA 19 in just 6 months, sorry.

Until EA comes out and says otherwise thats what we have to go on so lets take it from the horses mouth until stated otherwise.

Thats generally my rule with this things. Be sceptical until proven otherwise. And EA would only be greenlighting it in the past few weeks.

I am taking everything these companies say and the information presented in this leak as it is, with what has been supplied in terms of information, to come to these conclusions.

I may well be wrong on some things. Maybe EA changed their mind. Who can say until they do? But with what we know and the confirmed info we currently have that is my stance.

When said info changes, hey, thatll be great. But right now Im just basing expectations on what Im given.

While I don't think it would be called Mii Fit, I do think a Wii Fit successor on Switch will happen. Labo is proof that Nintendo's willing to go down that path again, the bigger question is whether they will focus too much on it like in the Wii era.

JaxonH

@YummyHappyPills
Yes, right at the top. Which was clearly logically deduced by the games that had 2020 in the title.

Hence the or so.

It doesn't mean there won't be the odd exception, or even many exceptions. Just means there's definitive proof that the games go out at least for two years via the 2020 in the sports titles.

If you have evidence showing that a screen capture was edited, please share and let's drop it right now but if you don't then you're just speculating without evidence.

Again, I''m all for shooting this down if we can find proper evidence to put it in doubt. But let's not run with an unsupported hypothesis. Screencaps can't be edited. For one. So this would require

A finding evidence the actual screenshot was taken recently before IGN posted
B corroborate with original Reddit post and not assume IGN has properly vetted

Please pursue these paths and give all of us some credible evidence to go on. You could be the one to shut this down. But bring some tangible evidence, not speculation. You very well may be right, but as of right now you would only be right by a lucky guess. And that's not good enough. If you want to shut it down, that's what you'll need to do. Someone's going to either way.

I'm just going to wait until someone reports back, because I honestly don't care about it that much to waste my time when somebody else is going to do it anyways
