@OorWullie yea Celeste is very fun and addictive. The immediate respawn feature bodes well for it. That's great your clearing up your backlog. Nothing stresses me out more than having tons of games I started that I haven't finished lol. I'm basically only having a rotation of 3 games max to avoid not finishing games or starting new ones. It's a new plan I've set for myself and it's been working out for a couple weeks now. Good for you though and jumping back into something you stopped playing a while back.
I mean, it's Mario Maker. Everyone knows what to expect. If they release another trailer and a launch trailer they're set. They don't need a Direct or E3 for that, technically. Doesn't mean they won't do it, but it shouldn't be taken as a given either.
I think the “average American” hasn’t yet had need to go beyond 18mbps. As soon as the day comes they have need of it, they won’t hesitat to upgrade. Like... the average American didn’t have a blue ray player 20 years ago. But as soon as Blu-ray’s started hitting the market, the need shifted and people bought one. Now, the average American might not yet have the speeds necessary. But that’s because they haven’t needed those speeds yet. Once you present the need, they’ll upgrade the speed. Just like if someone needs a console to play games, they buy one. On top of which, the “average American” is dragged down by 100 million non-gamers who just want to browse the net on their iPad- avid gamers will almost certainly skew higher for average speed.
The problem here is though, that ISP’s need to invest in their networks to be able to meet the correct levels of demanded infrastructure for streaming gaming. And to justify network investments, they unfortunately mainly look at these 100 million non-gamers with fewer needs. Of course, in the long run your argumentation holds up perfectly.
Personally I only want to hear more info about links awakening. Is it a straight 1:1 port( with visual upgrade) of the dx version or are we getting more ?
From what we’ve seen so far it’s already quite obvious that we should at least call it a remake, right? Assuming we are allowed to use more buttons than the GameBoy’s d-pad and A/B-buttons 😉 What makes you even consider that this would be ‘just a straight port’?
...Mario Maker 2. Its one of their biggest titles of the year.
Glances at Pokémon, Luigi’s Mansion, and Animal Crossing 😂
@AlohaPizzaJack so you name 3 other titles? That only proves NintendoByNature right. I would say SMM2 is bigger than Luigi’s Mansion btw, making SMM2 potentially a top 3 first party release for 2019. Of course, it all depends on taste 😉
@toiletduck what i mean by straight port is... Will the entire story, dungeon and overworld be identical to it's dx counterpart or will we get some thing a little different. Know what i mean? Its obvious it's a remake when you look at its visuals but what about the gameplay and story. That's what I was referring. Sorry i shouldve cleared that up
My Top 9 Favorite Games of All time.
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
What isn't known is the exact date. But I'm confident that Nintendo will shadow drop a demo for SMM2 during E3 to raise interest in the game. Although I'm also sure that interest in the game is already at a fever pitch. SMM2 is going to be one of those games that'll sell ten million+ copies.

@NintendoByNature Perhaps Nintendo did it on purpose. Aonuma give a tease of the (distant) future months ago when he said "We know what you're waiting for. Skyward Sword for Switch right?".
They sometimes tease this things in one way or another 😉
