This game isn't doing anything the Switch can't handle if the devs are talented enough.

Turn more ideas down.

@Xaessya Visually at least, XX doesn't even standout after playing Monster Hunter 3U (the pic is from the Wii U version naturally).

Look how much more detailed the Rathalos model looks, and how much deeper the environment is. It really sucks they couldn't use the better models fro 3U on 3DS, look at those talons. Graphics aren't everything of course, but this is a game about watching monsters move and aiming strikes at their bodies. And I really liked Tri's assets and 3D models.

It wasn't even worth starting Breath of the Meh for this.

Why is it so... mustardy...?

Information missing from this article:

1) It's still the Switch's launch year.

2) Monster Hunter: World, despite the title, is not open world. Just look at its map.

3) The Japanese XX singleplayer demo comes out on the 10th and the Switch is region free.

The self-serious entitlement in these comments is laughable.

This article didn't help explain whatever that new feature is at all.

How could these be content removed before launch if their names were only added in one of the patches? Why does this published article contain such contradictory speculation?

Also, RNA is a pretty good joke on the developers' part.

There was no last time, it was some moron's misinterpretation on NeoGAF. Do your research before you throw your half hour of typing up so you're not blatantly lying and misinforming your readership.

@SDF This game is announced with nothing shown and not even a release window. Persona games tend to come out late in the generation, so by the time this game's out there will be a lot more active Switch users and a lot less ones on 3DS. Especially people who are avid enough to play PS4 games as well.

@NinjaWaddleDee Remember when Persona 5 was only on PS3 but Atlas started developing a current gen version because the release was taking so long? Just wait.

A third party game only coming to the Switch? Sacré bleu!

I mean it was in the trailer, so you'd have to be pretty oblivious to be surprised.

@Grudgebearer For starters, you're lying. Capcom didn't say no, it was a mistranslated interview that then got spread around by terrible reporting that they had to correct. Monster Hunter XX is on Switch in one territory, Dauntless isn't anywhere. Capcom is objectively supporting the platform with more action games. Maybe you should try to be wiser than your username.

@Grudgebearer Dauntless isn't announced for the platform either. Monster Hunter XX is nearly released in Japanese, meaning work has been put into its development. Your comments are illogical.

@Grudgebearer Lol no thanks, that indie game has less weapons than World even if that rumor about fewer weapons had been correct.

I'm most interested in World or another fifth gen Monster Hunter with new monsters coming to Switch. And World seems pretty doable on the platform, especially since it's still using MT Framework, the engine Capcom ported to Switch in a couple of months.

@Rika_Yoshitake Soon (well, okay, probably not soon-soon, but soonventually).

@NEStalgia That was a mistranslated interview. Lots of erroneous fan translation of Capcom promotional interviews this year...

@Olmectron The thread seemed kinda sleepy, I didn't know many were braving the regenerating health.

Really scraping the bottom of the barrel for other ways to play this limited game. Or one could just go play the Master Mode that no one played because it was offensively unbalanced from the start.

"launch at the start of the year."

No, it launched two months in, right before the start of the fiscal year. Nonetheless, selling nearly 5 million Switches in 4 months is very good and puts them on pace to meet their 10 million goal, especially with the fall sales season yet to come

I'm not buying Kingdom Hearts 3 for quite some time.

They haven't even shown a Frozen world yet — why do I care about Tangled and Toy Story?

Cool, I just won't buy anymore Kingdom Hearts 3 on PS4 then.

@Aozz101x You have Xenoblade if you want to play endure MMO combat that bad.

Anyway... what is this even for? It's quite similar to the Gamecube version oddly enough.

This is a tease for Switch. Bayonetta? That was a conspiracy theory.

It's literally the same art. As in the icon looked exactly as bad to start, just smaller.

Poor writing on your TV.

Poor writing on the go.

Wow, the possibilities...
Show me Dontnod then we'll talk.

This is another nothing article. Maybe I'll still be interested when Platinum finished porting random games to PC.

That's not 'strangely beautiful' it's just the copy pasted grass, water, and cloud shadow effects from everywhere else in the game.

@RainbowGazelle Well I mean that doesn't make much sense. The Switch launch line year in terms of first parties was probably decided in 2014 or 2015, and Iwata would have had a large hand in that. Video game development is like trying to hit a target you can't see yet, and it's certainly not decided by just one person.

@NickOfTime90 Everyone who has 900 Korok seeds does, lol. A lot of the placements are practically impossible to find without a guide FYI.

Please make an infographic to help me understand all of these dang Kirby games.

@SLIGEACH_EIRE Why would you make a fuss about the release of a previously unavailable game? This is one of the biggest landmarks in game preservation in its history.

@LUIGITORNADO I mean, they're both ugly because of how outdated the packaging was made to look.

Nintendo funded an exhibit about the history of indie games at the Museum of Popular Culture in Seattle. They had a bunch of weird Wii U indies playable, as well as a really near history scroll chronicling indie games from the 80s to Journey and on.

Also, Reggie talks weird.

That is one plural possessive title.

Weird that Skyrim of all things is launching after Black Friday.

@Lord You're so dramatic. Gonna look real silly when — surprise — a series made by multiple teams that sells well on portable comes to the only current gen handheld in a year or so.

Why don't people see open world games about freedom and metroidvania games about locked doors as polar opposites, lol? I'd love to have more set piece moments, but it's hard to see how flying into the atmosphere will have any practical application in a game partly about platforming.

Have Intelligent Systems make a new IP (not Fire Emblem for the love of god) that's essentially just a new Paper Mario game with a new battle style and completely original cast.

Ah yes, because the Wii U infographic worked out so well... Anyway it's interesting, I didn't know Lego Worlds was releasing, or that June was 'Spring.'

I never would have expected them to do this.

This E3 was basically just a great Mario trailer and a bunch of insubstantial announcements. A Yoshi and Kirby game without titles, yes, yes, I heard that song and dance with the Wii U. A direct sequel / successor to Prime 3 is great news for Metroid, but that trailer wasn't even a 'reveal' it was just a promise.

The Pokemon announcement wasn't even that, as everyone with half an ounce of hindsight knew Pokemon would be coming to Switch eventually.

@Sakhasm Several Ubisoft games and a neat port from Bethesda, but losing Monster Hunter is a huge blow for Nintendo. The modern series will probably make its way back onto Switch in a year or two, but it sucks that the Switch doesn't get Monster Hunter: World.

Correct Daft Punk sub head.

@CrazedCavalier What the hell does this have to do with Dragon's Dogma?

Anyway, Capcom's mainline Monster Hunter studio are making this mainline Monster Hunter game.

@Darkhound1999 It's developed by the main Monster Hunter team that has made every numbered entry so far.

XX and Monster Hunter Portable 2018 are likely releasing to Switch (as well as subsequent entries), but World looks like the Monster Hunter I want.

Looks like I'll just buy them all, hahaha.

But seriously a real move from Sony. They don't need and shouldn't want to have all the games on their platform.

@JaxonH @Hordak @StephenYap3 Skyrim is obviously not competing with Breath of the Wild in terms of polish, combat, or physics + chemistry. Its combat system is designed around a first-person perspective to the benefit of immersion, and that's the canon way to play it IMO. Its got climbing though: It's called a jump button and a will, haha.

It's a very atmospheric game with tons of dungeons and natural locations to discover. There is a lot more to the world than Breath in that many of the dungeons tell a story of some sort and there are tons of books in the world to read and a deep lore underpinning the series and a lot of character dialogue. Generally you'll find a lot more quests, unique items/locations, and NPCs out in the world. I think it occupies its own space of immersive, environmental storytelling-focused open world game that nothing this gen has really committed to (besides Life is Strange, weirdly enough).
