'sokay. it also shows just how far we have to go in making believable graphics. even with only stills, 8 bit monochrome, and low-resolution, the images are believably real. with hdr, and 4k, we can still tell when animation is cg.
@Leon-mirage ditto. darsiders 1&2 were old zelda clones. 3 might be a new one. instead of evoking past zeldas, it'll be a dark and gothic breath of the wild. seven deadly sins standing in for the divine beasts. her whip as magnesis etc.
i suspect this courtship has a lot mroe to do with them likely being the cloud providers for nintendo's online service. not largely, but a large part of it definitely is. i mean, what're amazon and alphabet going to offer?
thank badness that this actually exists outside of a press release. a better test would be for reliability as less known brands tend to have less reliability - even some known brands tbh. how to test that tho'?
@DanteSolablood maybe steal a few ideas from blizzard & valve or outright poach a few execs since they seem to have a lot of experience in that matter. the way people talk about 'this generation' of switch however makes me think we are in the ds cycle, and the next generation is the 3ds cycle.
if mario tennis aces is the title they deem relevant enough to be mentioned, i wonder what else they will talk about? i mean, it's hardly a big draw, is it? then again, having a direct is the draw itself.
i have to wonder just how late into the game development was greenlit. that by itself likely means it is't a 2018 game.
EDIT: this might also explain why the teaser had the old bay look. they might have just reused the assets to make the teaser and there aren't any new ones yet.
i luv that the art is commando, rambo, and aliens. never appreciated it before. i guess game cover art will now go the way of comic book original art. a good thing, so invest now!
@Mqblank it's still possible that it could be. there are six fighters revealed so far and that's not enough of a roster. maybe these early fan service shots are jsut to get early interest. right now, even the dead or alive girls look modest.
i bet a whole heaping weight was lifted off their shoulders when it was decided to make it a switch launch game, not a wii u showcase. good move, that.
i will gladly dip as many times into bayonetta as needed. great game, great series, great character. i jsut hope bay3 (ba3?) isn't all dark and broody as the trailer suggested since it's the over the top joyful fun hacky-slashy game to beat out the gloominess of the other ones. that sheer joyfun is what deservedly makes her nintendo. also more costumes! mix & match, even. ice climber weapon set, too. all of it!

Re: Surprise! There's A New Nintendo Direct Coming, And It's Due Tomorrow At 10pm
if mario tennis aces is the title they deem relevant enough to be mentioned, i wonder what else they will talk about? i mean, it's hardly a big draw, is it? then again, having a direct is the draw itself.

Re: EVO Japan Trailer For SNK Heroines Turns The Fan Service Up To Eleven
@Mqblank it's still possible that it could be. there are six fighters revealed so far and that's not enough of a roster. maybe these early fan service shots are jsut to get early interest. right now, even the dead or alive girls look modest.
Re: EVO Japan Trailer For SNK Heroines Turns The Fan Service Up To Eleven
if it weren't for the fan service, i'd swear this game looks like it was made to get girls into fighting games.
