Unfortunately, at this point, it's pretty obvious that the current Rare is simply uninterested in revisiting they're past. Banjo has clout. He is very much still remembered by many people. An outsourced made Banjo&Kazooie is most likely to happen.
@patbacknitro18 How does namco co-developing smash have anything to do with my argument that their third-party support has been poor so far. @Entrr_username People have been saying this since the Wii days: "Third parties have only given us late ports and not much else but they haven't given up just yet. Just wait and you will see!" @Galarian_Lassie While you are right about the licensed anime games; that's mainly the Bandai side. I'm mainly talking about Namco's original franchises and habit of skipping the Switch.
@patbacknitro18 We will see. The rumor is the Bamco entire E3 line up has been leaked. And while yes, Switch has been getting many games, Few are AAA and I'm talking about Namco specifically. BTW if youre excited about namco's output then more power to you
As you mentioned, the PS4 version will be upgraded to suit that console's capabilities. While the Switch Version will be the same as the past gen PS3 with no features to compliment it.
Seeing as most of the iconic JRPG series were being released on the DS and they were nowhere to be seen could have easily fueled the perception that Falcom simply didn't care about DS. Also, hearing the "NINTENDO KiDDY!" argument from an industry figure sure is.... something to say the least.
This game is four years too late. The concept of toys-to-life was novel at first, but the genre is pretty much dead now. I hope people think before investing in a product like this. There is no telling how long UBISOFT of all people is going to support it.
Of course it ''doesn't affect'' us, the thing was barely available here. It's a shame really, I believe that the regular New 3DS is the best version of the console and I love my Pokemon 20th LE.
I only know him through that terrible Mighty No. 9 ending theme with the unfortunate ''They probably shot blanks'' line that could easily interpret something else.
This is probably really a thing in this particular city were they would allow you to have something that big on your property for seasonal purposes only. I see inflatable mascots here in Tampa Bay Area all the time. Then again, Florida I notorious for having the vague laws in the country. There are still people out there trying to decipher our knife laws.
@PlywoodStick I completely forgot about the D grade. My point still stands about people use our grading system as a reference for review score of not just video games but movies as well.
@Tempestryke I think many people (especially if they're Americans) view review scores through the lens of the American educational grading system. IIRC: 100-93 = A 92-90 =A- 89-87 =B 82-80 =B- 79-77 = C And everything below that is an F.
Don't get me wrong, I love 2D platformers but the oversaturation of them in the Indie scene is getting out of hand now. especially the generic looking ones that look like they were made in Adobe Flash, like this one.
@Megas I too, wish Nintendo would keep their store open to everyone! Super talented studios such as Ninja Pig were unfairly punished and I hope they come back home free one-day!/yes, this is sarcasm.
Are people here really not bothered by this?! I mean, this is another AAA game that will not be on Switch. If this game isn't getting ported what makes you think Kingdom Hearts 3 will.

Re: Ni No Kuni: Wrath Of The White Witch Will Grace The Switch This Fall
This is just a port of the PS3 version while the other console get remasters. If the other Leaks are anything to go by, Bamco is done with Switch.
