Also, the comment section is mostly filled with idiots, not gonna lie. Lots of blind praise/laughable things like praising the lack of media apps or just blind hate is completely shortsighted and missing the bigger picture like with Nintendo's E3 2018 and their Direct schedules.

Nintendo is going to make announcements at Gamescom, including a deeper look at Daemon X Machina.

I need that game so bad dude. So can't wait for it.

@Ralizah Somewhat. I swear the more nightmare posters are frequent posters more than drive-by posters. I'm hesitant to say "trolls", but I'm not gonna' not.

@EvilLucario Indeed, and both sides of blind praise/hate just inflame the other further, which is probably the point. It's honestly disturbing watching how little capacity for debate and consideration of various possible, if theoretical, angles so many people have. Any consideration of all the various pros, cons, ups, downs, potential reasons, results comes back to, in those threads yesterday "but look at the stock value dropping, it's clear it's because there's no F-Zero and because Nintendo can't run Red Dead 2 and MHW and switch has no games (because I arbitrarily don't like most of the ones available)!" It's like a WiiU argument with a Replace All for WiiU and Switch being done.

@asdz0722 Ohh, I haven't even realized type C BT adapters exist, that's kind of cool. I guess it won't work for me since I often use an external battery on the port, so I'll stick with wired. That's the one pet peeve I have with the hardware. I was looking forward to using my wireless headphones I used with my Vita and never imagined it wouldn't support them. Wired has plusses (no need to recharge headphones) but it would have been nice.

More on what @EvilLucario posted, the full Gamescom lineup appears to be:

  • Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
  • Super Mario Party
  • FIFA 19
  • Dark Souls Remastered
  • Travis Strikes Again: No More Heroes
  • Dragon Ball FighterZ
  • Starlink: Battle For Atlas
  • Killer Queen Black

With new gameplay videos on Nintendo's Youtube channel during that time including:

  • Super Mario Party
  • Torna DLC
  • Daemon X Machina

Maybe the motion control capturing is why Pokemon Let's Go is missing.

Dark Souls Remastered eh?

Well last time they had it playable at a trade show it got delayed to the following season so...

Here's the thing though...

Gamescom is the 21st of August. Summer ends in September. Dark Souls needs to hurry up and come out, because I hate being right.

Pretty cool to see Nintendo flexing a bit at Gamescon. I can't wait to find out more about the Daemon game

@Grumblevolcano What is with their promotion of Killer Queen Black. They spent a whole segment of E3 on that and skipped over Fighter Z and a dozen other things. It looks thoroughly budget and they're trying to make it like it's GTAVI.

@Grumblevolcano Which means, and I honestly figured this would be the case given their lack of clarity, that it's missing the summer window entirely. Which puts it into the September/October rush season of games on PS4 and after that against Pokemon and Smash.

They really missed their chances there, unless its in 2019.

@NEStalgia Killer Queen Black is the first console release of a limited availability arcade game. Nintendo is going to be shouting about that like you wouldn't believe.

I wonder how long we'll have to wait for the next Direct? The recent rumors suggested July, but clearly that didn't come through. And now we're less than a couple months away from the online service going live. Nintendo has to be (HAS TO BE) airing a Direct sometime between now and before then.

Right?

Anywho, I'm always eager to hear news more news on third party support, since the rest of 2018 is pretty locked up exclusive-games-wise. August, Monster Hunter. September, Labo Vehicle Kit. October, Super Mario Party. November, Pokémon Lets Go. And December, Super Smash Bros.

@Knuckles-Fajita Oh jeez, arcades are going 8-bit indie retro now too? Even when the arcades were seriously big the whole thrill was they looked better than the 8-bit NES

I find it more interesting now after finding that out (if it has arcade stick support to match the cabinet), and I looked it up but it still seems....but this isn't exactly street fighter. There's 40 of them, moreso bar/arcade-bar settings than actual arcades, and it seems oriented around party play 5v5. Yeah, perfect for Switch, so I get it on the 1-2-Switch level of marketing now. Fun if you have a big group and a lot of controllers.

We'll all know roughly 2-3 days before it happens lol

I know, ain't that the truth.

I just hope Labo Vehicle Kit isn't the beginning and the end of Nintendo's announcements for Q2 and Q3.

@Grumblevolcano Yeah, colloquially we have some messed up months. We consider June "summer" and September "Fall" and December Winter, with March alternately being spring or fall depending on how the weather goes. It's largely based on meteorological seasons, but calendar seasons are another thing. I recall in the past Nintendo counts Summer by the calendar, Jul, Aug, Sep, and Spring as Apr, May, Jun.

I’m predicting the next Direct on either the 14th, 15th, 17th or 24th as they’re the weekdays I’m on Afternoons and won’t be able to watch. It’s as scientific as you can get.
