Headline: a rumor that Nintendo is doing something ooh, lets go to the comments to see all the random internet people who are better at marketing, development, distribution, design, and market research than a 85 billion dollar company; all that with no privileged information. Makes my day
@ogo79 they licensed most of the video game stuff in Brazil back in the 80's/90's, after that they kinda died out, and now produce mainly low quality stuff. I wouldn't trust this genesis to last very long, not worthy of a 150 usd pricetag, at all.
I've played both, and although Horizon is very good, BotW is the absolute better game. After playing Zelda, every unclimbable rock, and invisible wall on Horizon made me wish I was playing Zelda instead.
@AlexOlney Yeah, this actually got me worried about the motion controls... I've heard so many good things from 1-2-Switch and Arms responsiveness. This looks terrible. I hope it's just Capcom's fault, not the controllers.
@RyanSilberman It is super edgy to be anti-Switch, so everyone is doing it. It's super amazing fun power Indie when it comes out on other platforms, it's an iPhone game when it's on Switch, just ignore them.
I find it pretty funny people comparing the Switch with a PS4. "Oh, i can buy a PS4 with a last year game and that and that and pay less than the Switch" Well, no sh&t, it's a 3 yo system, that actually launched at $400, if it was not cheaper now it would have died.
The Switch's launch price is just right, there will be some bundles during the Holidays, with 1-2-Switch, BotW, or something, and the same price, but right now, it's launching, get over the price people, technology costs money.
Shame, I don't care very much for Miiverse, but Streetpass was always cool. On a side note... Pokemon Sun/Moon has no Streetpass, so that explains that, if the Pokemon Stars rumors are true...
Probably just the "Run" thing, Super Mario Warriors would be... interesting.. I think, I don't know... But what I found most interesting was that Reggie kept saying "Super Mario Br-- Run, Super Mario Run" during the interview, like he wanted to say the title for the upcoming Mario game, but stopped himself.
I'd like to see a "Coming... right now" at the end of the trailer. Not only because I really want to play this, but, just imagine the chaos! Would be so hilarious.
@PK_Boss11 I mean, I don't blame them so much for dropping the Wii U, I mean, rats abandon a sinking ship. It bothers me more their "we've been great partners forever" attitude. But EA's overall practices in the industry are my real problem with them. They just never recovered from the "Worst Company in America" title in my point of view.
I just can't trust EA. I hope the Switch is successful and they get a lot of their fans on it, buying units, games, and all, but I don't even like seeing their name, anymore.
On the bright side, though, little more than a month now to have a better idea if those companies really mean what they say about the Switch.
I just want them to think of all those people who already have the game. I know the whole point of porting is to expand the game's audience, and all, but it would be nice to get a little love back from Nintendo, like that trade in thing people rumored about some time ago.
This sounds so weird that can't possibly be false... Or... It is a false lead Nintendo has told someone to try and find the people responsible for current leaks, and plug it. That would be a nice move for Nintendo's Ninjas... Also the Reality in my head is way cooler than the reality outside.
That's a nice romantic view of Brazil's relationship with gaming and piracy. It fails to touch on the more pressing matter that games are so expensive here because of nonsensically high tax on gaming, heir of a "protect our industry" mentality from the 60's.
And that those things eventually made Nintendo completely abandon the country a couple of years back.
But that's a really nice documentary, gotta watch the rest.
@Ryu_Niiyama @Spoony_Tech Yeah. I mean cordless is nice and all, but this is so ugly. And, come on, I used to sit 3 feet away from the TV anyway when I first got my NES. If there's no one saying I'm sitting too close to the tv it's not a real NES.
@A01 Yeah, that too. But I mean, even the 3DSs have it, this is probably covered. (I hope... I mean, I trust Nintendo... but, yeah) I worry about the connector because in the trailer people just put it and remove it from the cradle neatly, but on the day to day things can be different, if the connector is fragile it could be an issue.
It looks pretty cool. But I'm pretty curious as to what the lower part of the NS looks like. What kind of connector it has to the other unit and all, so we can have a better understanding of it all. Guess nobody knows that yet...
@FX102A I totally agree. But I'm optimistic, with the whole expansive list of supporting developers and all, I think Ninty have learned from the Wii U's and 3DS's mistakes. Lets just hope the have, and this can be a great return to form for Nintendo.

Re: Random: Check Out This Neat 3D View of the Nintendo Switch

Re: Analysts Weigh In On The Nintendo Switch Debate
