Topic: The Nintendo Switch Thread

This twitter user who claims to have inside info, is claiming Bowser's Fury is around 30 new levels and took them a year to make. So could be quite substantial if this is true. A year's development could make it quite large, given that they're probably reusing a lot of old assets, so it wouldn't take as long as the original development.

In the base game, each world had around 8 levels on average. So this would be 4 new worlds basically. Pretty damn good.

@Dezzy
That's coming from that same marcomaro guy that hasn't ever leaked anything correctly yet keeps making all kinds of bold statements on twitter. I had to warn Giancarlothomaz about him a while back.

Not to say the expansion won't be meaty. I suspect it will be.

@JaxonH

Has he leaked things incorrectly though?

@Dezzy Literally everything he's leaked has been incorrect. He's got worse odds than blind guessing.

Hey did you guys see this video on youtube about the Switch easter eggs? http://eleburic.com/6MZE

@link3710

Oh ok, well I'll ignore it then. I was just assuming this youtuber had used some kind of criteria for including it.

@Dezzy the criteria was probably "will it get me clicks"

@JaxonH Ah, of course, I shoulda thought of that, but I've not had to resort to that practice yet. Explains why you need all those tbs of SSD space though

This is pure gold

Monster Hunter Kart

👀

@JaxonH this is amazing, cutie and adorable, Capcom what are you waiting for giving us Hunters, Monster Hunter Kart with Palimute on Switch or any console.

@FragRed problaby we gonna know what the myterious Bowser Fury is.

@FragRed The Direct dream is dead, just gonna be another partner showcase this month. Disappointing for sure.

@Grumblevolcano I know it kinda sucks big time but at the same time, it’s what I expected. To be fair though, this may not have been the plan. The lockdown in Japan along with what’s happening in Europe and the US may have forced them to change things last minute

Only a two minute trailer for SM3DW + BF? Sooner...and shorter than I expected. I assumed BF would be more involved. Oh well, since SM3DW + BF is the only first party game scheduled for release in Q1 it appears as though Nintendo is going to keep fans on pins and needles all the way through to Spring.

@Magician I never expected it to be anything much of an expansion considering Nintendo knows full well how well Mario games sell regardless.

However, at the same time a length of a trailer means nothing. It's how you use that time and you can cram a lot of content into 2 minutes if you make the most of the time. If Nintendo brush over 3D World, they could allocate say 90 seconds to Bowser's Fury assuming its a big enough expansion to warrant it.

I'm actually still on the fence about it myself. Unless BF is some crazy sort of add on I need to have, I'll probably hold out. I've yet to finish it on wii u so I may just play that when it launches on switch to feel "normal" lol. Bravely Default II has my attention for February thus far.

Lol

1) A direct or mini direct announced in advance.
or
2) A new trailer randomly dropped out of nowhere.

1+2= A trailer announced in advance. Wooohoo!

@Dezzy Damn it, Nintendo's logic is all math based. They were playing 4D chess all along.

Called it, nothing until a partner direct in March.
