@PlywoodStick I actually highly doubt it would be delayed. Odyssey has probably been in the works for just as long as Zelda probably. They've even made mention that the new Mario was being worked on a ways back but hinted it would be on next gen hardware. I obviously could be wrong but I have an incredibly good feeling about Mario's release date.
I hate to be negative here, but I don't think Snakepass and RMX are good examples. Visually, they are on par, but there are other games that XB1 and PS4 run that require a ton of resources due to more than just graphical fidelity. Consoles now are more powerful to push a solid frame rate for games with a lot being processed in the background. Idk, I'm no game designer, but the smaller gap in graphical power this console cycle shows that there is more to play than just graphics.
You would think a charismatic, light-hearted company like Nintendo could pull off a "more funny" or a "more surreal" type of prank. At the same time though, Pokémon Go came to fruition because of an Aprils Fools joke, correct? I think companies are AF day just to test the waters! 🤣
I mean, I love the Witcher 3, but the game is filled with technical hiccups here and there. If we can praise TW3 then we should allow Zelda the same standard. I actually think, so far, that BoTW is way more polished.
I didn't realize how bad offset the left control stick on the right joy-con was until I saw the picture for article. That looks so uncomfortable. I hope I'm wrong about that though.
@BLM That is already happening. My wife and I have bought one each. We want to be able to play multiplayer on the go with a screen each and online with each other when we're not together. I personally don't think Nintendo has marketed that idea enough! The super bowl ad touches on it though.
@thesilverbrick it's really not overloaded compared to the Mario and Pokémon series, so another FE character wouldn't bother me. It's the fact that it could go to another representative or a new IP
I'm confused.... Why not just buy the Switch and never play it on the TV? Leaving out the dock in the packaging will not lower the price that much. It's literally just a dock. No processing power or anything. If you want to be mobile, just buy the console and not worry about playing on the TV.
I'm actually all for everyone of these designs. I want to know what the deal is with ultrabeasts. They don't seem to be considered Pokemon and there designs are missing that humanizing factor that Pokemon usually have. Definitely seems different.
Can anyone else not help to read/pronounce his name as "turdinator." Lol I understand what they were trying to do, but it kinda seems like a tongue twister

Re: Nintendo Confirms Switch Save Data Is Tied To The Console And Cannot Be Transferred
This doesn't bother me personally, but I could see this being annoying to some people. Is cloud storage how you would fix that?

@Whopper744 my wife and I have already bought one each. I see this being a big deal in families.
Re: Video: Nintendo Switch User Interface Shown Off In Leaked Footage
Well, stating it was an early preorder appears to be a decently clever way of avoiding NDA problems, but really, who believes that. Lol
His wouldn't be the only one that came in early and would be hearing reports of the happening if it was true.

I think he is pushing Nintendo to reveal the thing so they can reveal their thing. Nintendo is making everyone nervous.

Re: Wall Street Journal Reports That Nintendo NX Will Indeed Use Flash-Based Game Cards
Calling it now.
Nintendo in 2017: "Here is the NX! It uses cartridges instead of discs."
Gaming community: "This sucks. Why Nintendo? Nintendoomed!! Go 3rd party!"
Other gaming companies in the future: "Here is our new console! It uses cartridges instead of discs."
Gaming Community: "This is genius! I love the faster load times! I love how this company revolutionized gaming!"
