@FragRed Will you be able to do dances in it like Fornite though? That could be a huge problem as Samus' suit is too bulky for the finer motions of dabbing and flossing.

@jump I think Nintendo are working closely with Microsoft to work out dance moves for Samus as Master Chief uses a similar bulky suit, and that’s why there’s a Switch on Phil Spencer’s shelf.

People complain they can’t keep playing Mario Kart 8 as it’s too old yet the even older GTA5 is gonna sell another 20m copies now to the same people. Lol

@Grumblevolcano Looks like Nintendo will need to delay all games until at least second half 2022, because that game is gonna destroy anything they release for a whole year

I'm beginning to think Red Dead Redemption 2 was a disappointment to Rockstar. I for sure thought that game would be getting this treatment.

The Harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. When the going gets tough, the tough gets going.

I'm currently playing Assassin's Creed: Revelations & Watch Dogs 2

GTA V sold 20m copies last year. The game generated 227m in profit last year because of the those sales and shark cards. It remains one of Take Two Interactive's big bread winners, for eight years now.

GTAV comes to consoles that already have access to it (through backwards compatibility), and have an install base of only a few million.

And the Switch?...

At least 2'8".

...is probably too expensive because nobody, not even Nintendo themselves, are using 64 GB cartridges for their games. That's even if Take Two considered splitting the offline and online portions into two separate applications. But that shouldn't stop GTA V from being a digital-only game on Switch like Doom Eternal and yet here we are..five years into the Switch's lifecycle. Not a single GTA game on Switch, not even III, VC, or SA.

It makes me wonder if the business side of Nintendo pissed off Rockstar themselves at some point.

Did Body Harvest and GTA Chinatown sell that badly? I dunno.

No idea why GTAV isn't on Switch.

Don't get me wrong- GTA isn't really my thing. But I still want it on Switch. Might actually play it again if it were.

It has to be relationships. Whoever makes the decisions for GTA platforms doesn't like Nintendo, for one reason or another, and doesn't want the game on Switch. Everyone knows it would be a massive evergreen title if it got a hybrid release.

But it's fine. Saint's Row 3 and 4 are on Switch, with Gyro, and honestly those games are a lot more funny and interesting imo.

Still, they should put GTAV on Switch. Maybe they will with Take Two's new pro-Switch policy.

I love collecting amiibo, and that Zelda amiibo is possibly one of my favourites so far, but I have to say it's kinda unfortunate they would lock a convenience feature like that behind amiibo.

@Slowdive Just hope this Amiibo isn’t going to be incredibly limited and therefore impossible to find in typical Nintendo style.

Oh, look Spanky's Quest! That game is legitimately great! Not that most people will care. Still nice to see it hasn't been forgotten. Used to own the Game Boy version.

EDIT: here's a playthrough...

Spanky's Quest was the one that caught my eye there, but damn does that little dude move slowly.

You guys had me at blood and semen.

What better way to celebrate than firing something out of the pipe?
