@Harmonie The Wii version of TP was, honestly, unplayable to me. The blur filter of the Wii, and the waggle controls infuriated me. I never finished the game until the WiiU version (GCN version was impossible to find after launch.)
But few owned GCNs or WiiU's and many own/ed Wii/Switch, so a swansong game for each means little compared to a launch title for a very popular system. The public will surely remember these games as Wii/Switch.
The best versions of Wind Waker and Twilight Princess are definitely the HD remakes on Wii U, well unless they get ported to Switch just like most of the other Wii U games
What a weird discussion. Breath of the Wild is a Nintendo multiplat that released on both Switch and Wii U. It's as much a Switch Zelda game as it is a Wii U Zelda game. That's just a fact. It doesn't matter what system it was originally designed as an exclusive for.
My Top 10 Games
1. Judgement
2. Baldur's Gate 3
3. Bully (Rockstar)
4. Person 4 / Golden
5. Sonic Adventure 2
6. Xenoblade X
7. Ape Escape 2
8. Animal Crossing: New Leaf
9. James Bond 007 Nightfire
10. Persona 3: Reloaded

And here I thought the whole which console "owns" Breath of the Wild had finally ended. I myself consider BotW a Multiplatform title and agree it is likely to be remembered more as the Switch's Big Launch Title rather than the Wii U's swansong (heck a large proportion would argue the Wii U barely had a "birth"). Besides loads of titles have seen their platforms change during development or even multiply. A vision will always evolve during development due to many circumstances. I played BotW on Switch and TP on the Wii; loved both and felt they did their job greatly.
@Harmonie
Speaking about Animal Crossing for Switch, Nintendo SHOULD work Very Hard to bring Deep Robusted concept of Animal Crossing.
From my experiences with other similar games , what other games try to sell and compete are so many aspects. But, Animal Crossing Switch SHOULD have these aspects :
1. Open World. Other similar games like Animal Crossing such as Yonder the Cloud Catcher Chronicles, Portal Knights, Dragon Quest Builder, My Time at Portia, LEGO Worlds are using Open World style to let players explore the beauty of Big landscapes. Imagine if you can build your Animal Villagers houses on the heart desire places, watching them spreaded on different places rather than 1 side scrolling like on Wild World / City Folk / New Leaf.
2. House Furnishing. Animal Crossing Switch should Upgrade the House Furnishing system like The Sims series / Portal Knights / Dragon Quest Builder / LEGO Worlds which we can build own house with heart desire of wall / floor materials, furnitures to be placed, gardening, etc.
3. Activities. Animal Crossing Switch SHOULD have Tons of different Useful activities to be done. If on previous Animal Crossing, players just only do collecting fruits (and eat them), planting trees from fruits / saplings, fishing, catching bugs, digging fossils / Gyroids, selling items on Flea Market / Re-Tail, do part time job, gazing the sky, finding constellation, watching Live performance, shopping at Supermarket, designing clothes / patterns, etc, Animal Crossing Switch SHOULD have these :
a. Farming. Make it like Harvest Moon style (plants them on correct seasons). Other games like Yonder the Cloud Catcher Chronicles, My Time at Portia, Rune Factory, Re:Legend, Portal Knights, Dragon Quest Builder are also have Farming. And we can sell the crops / fruits on place like Re-Tail or we can open our Flea market / own shop selling specific items.
b. Crafting. Players can making new things from different materials, so players should collecting some items, foraging, fishing, digging, etc to get specific items to craft new things. The crafts can be sold or used for specific purposes.
c. Cooking. Players can cook some dishes and we can sell the foods / drinks to make profits or give them to Animal villagers as a gift or can be used for Cooking Festival or or simply we eat / drink them to gain more Energy (Yeah, Animal Crossing Switch should introduce Stamina meter for player).
d. Open Business. We can open Our store to sell specific items. We can make own Boutique (Selling your design clothes), Restaurant or Cafe or Bar (Selling your own foods / drinks), General store (Selling various items), Plants shop (Selling flowers & other plants), Furniture shops (Selling our furniture crafts), Fish market (Selling fishes and other water creatures), Flea market (Selling Unwanted items). Also, we can hire some Animal villagers as our staffs to help your business and you should care with the sales & profits, what popular items to be sold so you should manage your Business Tycoon by yourself.
e. Building Public places. Similar with PWP from Animal Crossing New Leaf but with more Public places and their functions like Police Office, Museum, Shopping Center, Carpenter, Theather, Hotel / Inn, Restaurant, Office, School, Sea World, Science Lab, Tailor & Boutique, Re-Tail shop, etc. We can beautify our town with different things like PWP (Chairs, Pond, Traffic light, Arc, Bridge, etc).
f. Part time job. Similar with making coffee on Animal Crossing New Leaf, but we can experience with different Part time job from different Public places & get some money / rewards if we don't make money from our stores. Part time job section will be like on Dillon's Dead Heat Breakers, we actually have to work like a real job.
g. Mini Games. Sometimes we get bored by some tedious activities, so Animal Crossing Switch SHOULD have Tons of Mini games. And it would be better if there is an Arcade Center on Animal Crossing that we can play at to get some tickets and redeem the tickets for various rewards.
But, the Most Important aspects for Animal Crossing that SHOULD be Fixed are :
1. Move Out. DO NOT FORCE us to play the game every single day or Animal Villagers will Move Out. Nintendo SHOULD give us Freedom to play Animal Crossing without being under pressure of losing dreamy villagers if we don't play the game for very long time. Make it like Disney's Magical World 2. And NO MORE Move Out from Animal Villagers. Nintendo Should give us Freedom to choose which Animal Villagers to stay in / kick out from your town like MySims Wii.
2. Conversations. Animal Crossing is well known with Long & Tedious conversations like Wall of Texts. Nintendo should make it brief and shorter. Talk briefly, No more weird SFX while talking, and we can skip the conversations very quickly.
3. Warnings if we don't Save the game. I was thinking "Does it really matter if we don't save our games ? Why do you concern ?"
And Don Resseti can shut his lip to NOT nag at us if we don't save our games, i mean "That was NOT your business to nag at us. If we don't Save our games, so what ?"
No More stupid warnings like that.
4. Maximum of person during Multiplayer session. Make it up to 12 players can join during Multiplayer session (Local / Online) or 8 players from Wireless play.
5. Randomize Villagers. No More Random Villagers on Random places. We can choose our Animal villagers from Hotel, we can ask them to stay at your town or kick them out if we bored with them, we can choose the place for them to live.
6. Town Tune. Animal Crossing still Doesn't have Sharp & Flat key ? What the heck !
And still limited to 16 musical notes, limited Octave. Animal Crossing Switch should has Sharp & Flat key, duration maximum 30 seconds & BPM changes.
Well, that's All my ideas for Animal Crossing Switch.
Sorry for Wall of Texts.
What do you think about my ideas ?
I think, regardless of whether BotW is "more a Switch game" or "more a Wii U game", the point is that the Wii U never had it's own Wii U game, making it not too unusual that there was no Animal Crossing.
Considering that each Animal Crossing installment is essentially the same game with a few gameplay enhancements, and that such a game is really suited to handheld play, I think that Nintendo decided that another home-only AC would be a tough sell. But now? We have the perfect time - and the perfect machine - for a new Animal Crossing. It really wouldn't surprise me if they've been working on an HD installment for years, and are holding off its release for the right moment.
@Anti-Matter that sounds awesome I see you want to see the series going for a bigger scale and that sounds cool. Some of your ideas might be hard to implement but if any company can make it happen its Nintendo.
@JaxonH You make some fair points. Did Nintendo ever reveal when they switched development from Wii U only to both Wii U and Switch? I vaguely remember Aonuma releasing a screenshot of a message he sent to his team saying “We have decided to also release Breath of the Wild on the Switch. Have it ready for launch day ” or something to that effect. Wonder when he sent the message. But regardless I guess it is technically a multiplatform release.
Crash Bandicoot is getting published on Switch in Japan.
By SEGA.
Yet another example of "someone else has to do it" with this system.
Oh and Dark Souls Remastered is on sale on PS4 which is where I'll be getting that game now. Been far too long with no news for this alleged Summer release and the entire situation is sketchy, so yet another late port cheaper elsewhere if and when it does release.
As I said at this point its either day and date, unless the game launched pre-Switch obviously, or not at all for me
I see no reason to buy Dark Souls on PS4 or X1. Same game that was on PS3 and 360. They could sell that game for $10 and I'd still see it as $10 wasted.
The only reason the remaster was justified in the first place was to get a portable hybrid version. If I cant get that then I just dont want it at all, no matter how cheap it is. Already own the game on PC, already own the game on X1 with BC. Not gonna buy the game again unless I'm getting something I didn't already have.
The game has been out for 10 years. Why rush out now to buy it, especially when it offers nothing we didn't already have 10 years ago.
Salt and Sanctuary is coming to Switch btw
Psalms 22:16 (1,000 yrs before Christ)
They pierced My hands and feet
Isaiah 53:5 (700 yrs before Christ)
He was pierced for our transgressions
60 fps is always gonna be the reason I choose a multiplatform game on another console versus Switch. The portability is not worth the premium price and worse performance for me. At least not this time, where they delayed it so you have the bonus of not only paying more for a game that technically runs worse, but months after the other versions released and are cheaper
@JaxonH I'm not sure, but after many multiplats on PS3 were um....Bayonetta situations, I felt it best to hold off. Besides, I know Blighttown was a problem on every past gen system.
