The price is ridiculous. I laughed and then thought are there morons who would pay this much when you can get free mobile phone games better than this? I suppose the people who buy this will also buy the calculator at full price on the eshop. LMAO

Pathetic, an insult to our intelligence if Nintendo thinks we are going to be happy about this update. Why even bother?

In much the same way that my hopes are fading for a Yokai Watch 4 western release I had almost given up hope for this title. Great news

Haven’t played this since the first week of July. Need some decent content for me to get back in to it for more than a couple of days

It’s not worth it as an upgrade for most but worth it if you’re buying your first Switch. I actually don’t want a pro to be released as I want to get 2-3 more years out of the current Switch before Nintendo go to a new generation.

The graphics do not look HD. Graphics look sooo dated and like a 10 year old game or a budget title. No way am I paying the full asking price for this. Could u imagine if this ugly game released at full price on PS5 or even PS4 it would be a laughing stock or just totally ignored. If this wasn’t a Zelda game no one would buy it

I know it’s a business and I know Apple do this sort of thing too but if that’s the case that Nintendo are just profit gouging on the new model then I hope people continue to buy the base Switch

I hope the download size is smaller this time around

Graphically it looks terrible when compared to BOTW. Heck Link’s Awakening looks better than this. First Zelda in a long time that I have no interest in

Swapping between SMT3, American Fugitive, World Of Final Fantasy Maxima and Saints Row 3 thanks to some great e-shop discounts

Knowing that it was a 40 minute direct they packed a lot in. There was no Pro, Trilogy Pack (Zelda, Metroid, Mass Effect) also no Donkey Kong, Xenoblade, Mario Kart 9 etc. But I was pretty happy as I feel there is plenty of good games to look forward to and when all is said and done that’s all we really need. I give the direct an 8/10

Level 5 released Ni No Kuni II but are they also taking care of the Switch version or is Nintendo or Bandai Namco taking care of the Switch port as Level 5 have financial issues

They are even marketing the next update by delaying it to build hype and interest

This is giving the game plenty of publicity and a lot more exposure than If it released as was expected a couple of weeks ago. Smart marketing intended or not.

Hope it’s better than Balan Wonderworld

@chardrich I really agree with Nintendo buying Level-5 that would be a good win for Nintendo and makes sense. Konami would probably be a good idea especially if there's a way we can get a MGS game but Rare might be a waste of money as they don't do much anymore.

@Alucard83 I agree. Do you want DLC for Pikmin 3 or would you rather have Pikmin 4? DLC for GTA 5 or do you want GTA 6? After 7 years I’m ready for MK9

Speculation only but maybe we are still getting it but this is the reason why it's taking a while.

Can Nintendo or Bandai Namco please localise Yokai Watch 4

Look at the list of new software. Looks like every single title comes with the Nintendo Seal of Approval. Quality AAA stuff. If.only I could buy them all. Thanks Nintendo.

Just tested my PAL version of Omega Ruby and it still works

I'm interested but ultimately I'll wait to see if the reviews are good to decide if I'll get it

I actually think Nintendo have got so much publicity out of this promotional gimmick that it’s worked well. I would caution Nintendo about repeating this gimmick because it will wear thin and annoy consumers in much the same way as micro transactions. They would be best advised not to test the goodwill of their customers too much IMO.

Ryza 1 & 2 are the most expensive games on the Australian eshop at $90 for the base game which is what is stopping me from diving in.

I loved the repetitive relaxing RPG loop of Miitopia on the 3DS but I’m not paying again unless there’s substantial new content which it doesn’t look like there. Mii customisation and a horse is pretty lazy. Miitopia 2 is what would’ve got me to hand over my hard earned $

I loved this on the 3DS. I want this more than MH Rise

Is this coming out soon?

Finally they give us a date

Picross Round 2 on 3DS looks better than this, so I'll dust off the 3DS when I'm in the mood for Picross

Sure there were some obvious ones left off the list such as SMT but I loved reading through this as most of these games I haven’t played and a few I never knew about

I loved the games on 3DS and will probably get this although looking forward to SMTV more

Yokai Watch 4 is one of the best selling Switch games in Japan. Please localise it.

Good to see Yokai Watch 4 made the list even if only just scraped in. Would love to see a western release

Gonna wait for the reviews of this and SOS to see if either is any good. Might have to wait for Rune Factory 5 if that is still coming out

@embison haha that was funny

I'm also disappointed with the graphics. If they are going to go with a top down style, fine but it needs to look as good as Link's Awakening not a cheap Harvest Moon game. That said it might still be fun so even though the art-style is ugly I'll be interested when it drops to see the reviews. On a more positive note the Legends Arceus game looks very promising.

I wouldn't download it even if it was free.

Obviously new Metroid, Zelda or Pokémon would be great but Yo-Kai Watch 4 being localised is my long shot hope for the direct. Failing that an Etrian Odyssey or proper Persona game would be amazing. You can probably tell I have fond memories of my 3DS

@koffing Really well said. As much as I love Nintendo products I have to say joy con drift is an unacceptable disgrace especially now that the Switch has been out for over 3 years. Not good enough Nintendo, yet you've increased your profit expectations from 300 billion yen to 450 billion yen. Profits over people and profits over ethics.
