@Pikachupwnage True, but if you look at the video I posted here, you will probably see that it might not always be that easy to increase shipment. (Don't want any workers to overwork themselves way too hard or be punished unfairly :+(. ).

Anyway yeah, like other rjejr has mentioned to me the 2 million units might just be for a few days and not meant to least from the beginning of March :+).

@JLPick I live in Norway so I don't think it will be that bad for me compared to the US, as we have a lot smaller population. (The Wii U's install base is actually over the double of the entire Norwegian population so).

Anyway, I think I will talk to some Gamestop employs near where I live so I can hear what they think and whether or not pre-ordering is necessary. Still, I hope it goes better for you with the NS, as that doesn't sound fun :+(.

I don't think I have pre-ordered anything beside Hyrule Warriors for the TP skin as we didn't know they would be purchasable later and Smash because of the Gamecube adapter or what it is called, and the Pokémon Go Plus as the Gamestop employs adviced me and I said why not as I was unsure on if I would be able to get it otherwise. So doesn't pre-order without a reason.

We will probably get to know the bundles and such next year if not before, so I wouldn't worry too much :+). Just try to get through your backlog would be my tip ;+).

Anyway yeah, lets hope BOTW comes out on NS's launch or if not as close as possible :+).

@rjejr From the post you set me I can't say I see where you mentioned BOTW would come later than March, but I don't think that's due to English being my second language either. (Or do you mean an another comment in the comment section from you).

With Nintendo's approach or to say Kimishima's approach with the NS reveal, I actually wouldn't be surprised if Nintendo doesn't say anything about BOTW until next year. I always know to keep myself occupied and not feel to impatient, but I do agree that I would prefer BOTW news this year. Still... wouldn't complain to much if BOTW comes close to my birthday, as then I can get the Switch and BOTW as a birthday gift ^^. (Though it is probably better overall that BOTW launch on the Switch launch).

I said Japan first because it is Nintendo's home county, but I agree with you on how the Japanese gaming market right now maybe aren't too interested in the NS overall due to their gaming habits with phones and 3DS.

US first might be more likely... or Australia or Oceania as a test market, even though I would be surprised if the NS gets test launched in Australia or Oceania first. Europe aren't Nintendo's biggest market, so more likely that US get the NS first in that sense.

Hehe, wouldn't be surprised me either that Japan would be the first region to get the NS standalone without the dock :+).

@rjejr I see.

I suppose you mean that the NS could first be launch in Japan or possibly the US and then later in the rest of the regions? (Kind of hopes for May launch in Europe due to birthday).

Anyway, even if March isn't the big month for console buys, I think Nintendo might be underestimating the appreciation for the new Zelda game as a lot of people/core Zelda fans probably want NS on launch day or BOTW's launch day. Nintendo did say they wasn't going to sell the NS at a loss at launch day, so which might be why the price is higher.

Still like you pointed out rjejr, Nintendo might just have a late March launch and will have a lot more units in April or that it is a region split launch.

Either way, hopefully the people making the NS will be treated well and their human rights maintained :+).

@cleveland124 @MarcelRguez Thought so.

I think at least 3 or optimally 5-6 million would be better than 2, but as you clereland said it could be manufacturing which does make sense if Nintendo aren't able to ship that many consoles at once.

This might be interesting video, but note that Nintendo is set in a bit bad light in this video even if it is fairly informative. The video is nearly a year old, so things might have changed for the NS.

If Nintendo is aiming 2 million specifically at launch, but the week later or later in March ship more NS-s with BOTW I guess it is logical to only have 2 million at launch.

Either way, it is probably best to pre-order the NS and I am not a person who pre-order really. Hopefully the launch doesn't end in a extreme shortage of NS-s and mostly everyone who want a NS at launch gets one.

Isn't just 2 million units for the NS's launch a bit little or is it just me who are reading it wrong?

If it wasn't for that BOTW likely going to be on or close to the launch, I could maybe agree with 2 million.

Either way, it will be interesting to see how the NS does :+).

Actually I could see us getting some NX news or at least vague NX hints this week as Nintendo's investor site show that on the 30 Spetember this Friday there will be an event, or at least what is listed is "Record Date for Interim Dividends for the 77th Fiscal Year".

I don't really have an idea if the title indicate that NX news is coming as English is my second language, but thought I should mention this here as we are kind of talking about the possibility of NX news coming this week.

(The next thing on Nintendo's investor site is "Second Quarter Earnings Release" on the 26 October).

In any case, I suppose we have something to potentially look forward to this week :+).

Super Paper Mario for me I guess ^^.

I thought maybe Super Paper Mario would come out during Gamescom similarly to Xenoblade Chronicles, but sure I don't mind getting Super Paper Mario one week earlier .

@Seacliff Oh, I see. Thanks for telling me Seacliff ^^.

Is it meant to be a 7 or an 8 score, as on the top it says 8 but in the conclusion it says 7. Typo/mistake?

I am not sure if I will play Pokémon Go that much by the end of the year, but it will likely be a game that I will play now and then when I feel for it. If good headset AR support are added then maybe a bit more than I would otherwise.

I guess if Pokémon Go are connected to Pokémon Sun and Moon as in providing some benefits for both of them, or at least Pokémon Go providing benefits to Pokémon Sun and Moon, I think I will likely be playing Pokémon Go still :+).

@TheERaichu I rather want NES games on my 3DS so I can take them where ever I want, and play bigger games like Twilight Princess and Tokyo Mirage Sessions when I come home ;+).

Still yeah, it is really cool in terms of preserving history and a perfect gift to someone who don't have a 3DS or a Wii U, and didn't grow up with the NES games like the 8-12 years olds today as well as older kids/people like us and of course people who grew up with the NES :+).

A little treat to everyone ^^.

Wow O.O

Can't say I expect this at all ;^^.

Not sure if I will buy it myself as I am not from that generation, still really happy for people who want something like this .

I have to say I am a bit surprised that we saw so many Pokémons from previous generations, still the more the better I guess :+).

Will be interesting to see what that dance like move does, even though it seems like it is tied to the special move which could potentially be the move for the fifth move slot.

In any case, really heartwarming video and I really hope we will see more of these kinds of videos ^^.

@invictus4000 Making Pokémon Go only related Gmail account shouldn't be hard I think, as in just making a new Gmail and only use it for Pokémon Go :+).

I hope this works for you or something else if you can figure it out.

@invictus4000 I don't have Pokémon Go myself yet, but I would imagine you should be able to restart by uninstalling Pokémon Go and then reinstall afterwards :+). (I hope it works for you).

While trying figure out if here are likely some Pokemon Go activity as in Pokestops where I live through searching up Ingress a bit, I stumbled upon this picture and wondering if this is us after a while in Pokémon Go kind of ^^.

@Jeronan I am also a Norwegian so I know what you are talking about.

I noticed that Niantic are the once who are displayed in the Google Play Store and as Ingress are available here in Norway I do think there are a fair chance we might get Pokémon Go at the same time as the others, or at least the European launch or if not a little bit later as in within a month.

Hopefully we will see Pokémon Go here in Norway soon as well :+).

While I am not a fan of the art direction from the new Mickey Mouse cartoon shorts, I have to say nice :+).

Also, for people who don't know Nintendo and Disney have actually collaborated a lot before in terms of card games and board games, and I have to say I would really liked if Nintendo and Disney collaborated more again ^^.

http://blog.beforemario.com/2014/01/nintendo-board-games-part-2-disney.html

@MysteryAozz I see what you mean now and yeah I understand, you don't want to get the Nintendo version if it doesn't have all of the extra content if the other consoles are getting the extra stuff.

I am not sure if I think the Nintendo versions will get the extra DLC or not, but if the NX versions sells well enough I would think the extra DLC/content are coming or at least are more likely to come :+).

@MysteryAozz I think once the NX are properly announced and maybe depending on the overall fan reactions to the NX, the third party developers such as Ubisoft will likely announce more of their games for the NX.

I think even if the NX having a really slow start due to gamers not liking Nintendo's new potential 'gimmick', I do think we will likely see more third party games than on the Wii U if the NX is easy to port to :+). (Note: I am not saying that the NX has a new 'gimmick', just that there are a potential even though as long as the game are fun and plays well I don't mind).

One part kind of confuse me a bit in terms of what you mean as in one part you say that first that in the sense that if the NX doesn't get third party titles you are sad, but in the other part you say it as in that even if the third party titles are on the NX you will likely get them on other platforms. I assume you meant that if the third party games isn't coming to the NX, you will just get those you want on the other consoles, which is understandable :+).

Yeah, NX is likely going to get Lego games and other similar license titles no matter what, and indie titles will likely come to the NX as well even if it take a little longer depending on when they receive a development kit for the NX.

I am not a person who play Nintendo only on Nintendo machines if I get a chance to, as I really like games from the Japanese side of gaming industry such as Nintendo, Square Enix, Level-5, Bandai Namco, PlatinumGames, Capcom, Koei Tecmo and so and would really like the NX to be a console big on those kind of companies at least ^^. (They are the companies that make games that Nintendo fans in general want the most it seems to me).

Anyway, in terms of Ubisoft I am not sure if we can expect NX exclusive games at NX launch to say, but I am pretty sure there will be at least one game from Ubisoft beside Just Dance 2017 at NX's launch :+).

I do think Ubisoft will likely support the NX, but how much Ubisoft will support the NX or for how long I am unsure of. If the NX is really easy to port to I can see the NX getting a fair amount of titles, even if not all the games sell that well they still likely recoup their costs I would imagine.

I think Nintendo kind of needs Ubisoft to help appeal more to the western market, as the western market are likely just getting bigger and bigger. While I personally are more interested in games like Rayman and Child of Light, I do think the NX need games such as Assassin Creeds whether or not we Nintendo fans are specifically interested in them.

In any case, it will be interesting to see how much Ubisoft will support the NX and I am pretty sure we will see some games beside Just Dance no matter what nearly :+).

@ThanosReXXX Thanks for the tip as I have been wondering on how to make images appear on Nintendo Life :+).

Also shouldn't you be changing your Url ;+). Anyway for the Cloud gaming idea if that's what you mean, I don't think people would mind Cloud gaming that much as long as the streaming works well enough :+).

I am not sure, but I come to think of that the next idea might be the scrolling wheels we saw a while ago from one of Nintendo's patents and I think that it could be something like that potentially. I mean I don't think scrolling wheels for the L and R button wouldn't be that extreme and something more like the rumble pack.

I think I prefer the altered version as it looks better to me and I would probably feel way more weirded out otherwise ;^^.

Still I wouldn't mind if there were a option for either the altered version or the original version :+).

@ShadJV True, but we don't know if Zelda: Breath of the Wild will let us translate in game like with the stamps or to say reveal the letters meaning in-game, but we should at least be able to translate texts from outside the game to say like from a PC, phone, tablet or something else :+).

I know at least I will do my best to translate Hylian texts when I feel for it ^^.

A part of the reason why the fans have been able to translate the Hylian so fast is because on the first version of the E3 site there was Hylian that said "The Legend of Zelda" so that's likely why the translating got a head start :+).

(I will likely try to translate Hylian texts as well in the game and hopefully find some hidden lore).

@peeks Technically Link is only seen upon as a male because that's the only representation Link has been given, but as Link is reincarnated over and over again and never the same Link beside direct sequels I would say a female named Link isn't out of the question.

Of course if there are some lore in the Zelda series that says the Hero Spirit can only reincarnate as a male then I understand, but otherwise I don't see why Link could have a female counterpart though I do want her to be her own character as well and not a gender swap :+).

I do agree that it would be strange if a character like Sora from Kingdom Hearts suddenly turned into a female, but as Link have so many different versions I don't think Link can't be a female or to say having a female in the Zelda series named Link.

Actually a not too bad week in terms of content I see :+). Not sure if I will buy any of these games this week, but maybe ^^.

I can't really help, but being excited for Nintendo's E3 and E3 in general and also as I don't focus too much on expectations. Of course I do have some wishes for Nintendo's E3, but I think as long as the games are presented nicely along with at least one surprise I will be fine... or a Nintendo Direct for Japan seeing what we might get in the future. (I think there will likely be a Japanese Direct soon if not a English one as well).

In any case I think this E3 will likely be okey enough as in a waiting time until the NX, and for all what we know we might see a teaser for a NX game without knowing. So yeah, just 8 days now until Nintendo's E3 :+).

Edit: Can't say I really complain about getting more time to cleaning up my backlog a bit more before the NX comes out either ^^.

If Virtual Reality is actually Augmented Reality as like in an much improved Hololens like device I am all for it if the games are good, but for VR I don't think I will ever interested in VR before we get something like the Amusphere I guess. (No Nervegear please).

In any case it will be interesting to see how VR does at E3 this year :+).

I am pretty excited for E3 actually as I consider myself not just a Nintendo fan, but also a gaming fan in general :+).

I am looking forward to Nintendo and Zelda U information, but I am also excited for many of Square Enix games like the Kingdom Hearts and the Final Fantasy gams as well as Dragon Quest too ^^.

I am also excited for to see how the VR and AR technology are improving, and what sort of games will be made for VR and AR devises that will chance how gaming looks :+).

No matter what happens during E3, I don't think I will be too disappointed in general .

@shani I see :+). Well, as long as you have fun playing something I think that's the most important thing, and I hope you will enjoy the older 3DS as well ^^.

Well, I still live with someone and that person is usually the one who occupies the TV, so I personally prefer games I can play Off-TV to say :+). I don't mind playing mobile games, but they are very game-y mobile games or past dedicated gaming games such as "The World Ends With You". (It isn't as macabre as it might sound like, as it is a Square Enix game).

Anyway, I hope you find some good games to play and have fun, and hopefully in the end we will get Duckburg game ^^.

@shani I see. Well the best would be if you bought either a (used?) cheap PlayStation 3 or 2, but if you don't have a PlayStation at all I am not going to say that you can't emulate it on a PC just to try the first game :+). (Probably best with a controller). Also no problem ^^.

I think the reason the Wii U didn't get any Kingdom Hearts games was because of the Wii U's sales, even though I am pretty sure a lot of hybrid Zelda and Kingdom Hearts fans would likely have bought a new Kingdom Hearts game as well as getting Kingdom Hearts fans to buy a Wii U. Still yes, Kingdom Hearts is a perfect fit for the Nintendo fans ;+). (Kingdom Hearts isn't really like Xenoblade Chronicles X at all though, but it is a RPG yes).

You can actually have a SD Card that let you put in a MicroSD Card as that's what I had I think in my old normal 3DS. It is up to you if you want to buy a new 3DS or not, but I kind of don't understand why you would sell your 3DS unless you lack money for other things in real life. (There are coming a lot of RPGs to the 3DS still though). Either way, I am glad you can hopefully get all of your games back ^^.

I don't have that book, but I have borrowed it from the library a number of time as I didn't know where to buy it back then. I think I have read most of the Don Rosa comic if not all of them as I have read a fair amount of them in normal Donald Comics as well as read them from some special Don Rosa collection books :+).

I don't think I will ever get truly tired of that duck or at least for many years now ^^. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1k3e5b6KcF8

@shani You don't have a PS3? All of the older Kingdom hearts games are there in one form or another, even if the DS games are just cutcences and text I would still say they are worth it :+). (If you are going to start playing Kingdom Hearts I say do Kingdom Hearts 1 first no matter what even if you are emulating it first just to see). This is the opening for the 3DS Kingdom Hearts game and I really recommend listing to it ^^. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SZPsjy76TBo

Still too bad with you N3DS though and I hope you don't miss it too much . (Hope you kept the SD card at least).

Yup, read those Scrooge Mcduck stories a ton of times and I am set that book on my birthday wishlist as I love them so much ^^. And yeah, I 100% agree on that Don Rosa's stories could be made into excellent games or at least mini-games . (Actually a Don Rosa comic taught me that parchments are made out of animal skin and that papyrus is made out of reeds, as well as things about real life locations like you mentioned).

Actually I think Don Rosa could be the perfect story writer for the next Ducktales games maybe if you understand what I mean ;+).

In any case I guess we just have to wait and see ^^.

@World I would say play Kingdom Hearts regardless if it has Duckburg or not though, as they are such good games in my view . (I feel like Kingdom Hearts had made me a better person and apparently more people feel the same: http://kh13.com/forum/topic/86412-have-you-been-deeply-inspired-by-anything-from-kingdom-hearts/).

Anyway, I am thinking about getting Disney Magical World 2, but not sure yet as I am not sure how long the game can keep me invested, as I prefer more story based RPGs. Still it is nice to hear that Donald might get a bigger role in the new game ^^.

No, here it is literally Donald Duck comics featuring Donald mostly or at least his closets circle. I will say the quality varies a lot in the newer ones as they sometimes are just things that could happen in real life and are a bit boring, but some of them have amazing references like one not too long ago that had VR, a reference to Summer Wars and maybe Digimon if I understood that comic right and I was mindblown by that one as I never expected it .

Either way, I definitely like to read Donald Comic/Pockets when I can ^^. (Getting the new once because of habit kind of, but I don't mind it. Also my favorite Donald drawer is Don Rosa).

In any case, lets hope we get a new Duckburg or Donald and Co related game in the near future :+).

@World @shani @Luffymcduck I have thought about that maybe Kingdom Hearts could have a Duckburg world at least if not a full game featuring Duckburg, but do to Disney Town that we saw in Birth By Sleep I am not sure if it is logically possible to have Duckburg in Kingdom Hearts or at least as a part of Sora's story.

We could maybe get a Duckburg in a future Kingdom Hearts game maybe, but I think smaller mini-games are a likelier possibly if not something Disney license out.

I think right now I think our best hopes would be if the new Ducktales series catch on and is good, we might get a new Ducktales game if not exactly a Duckburg game :+). (The new Ducktales game doesn't necessarily have to relay on just Scrooge as a playable character though, but a lot of the Duckburg characters hopefully).

Also I will say that I am a Norwegian and read Donald Duck comics and pockets quite regularly and like them a lot :+).

@NintendoVideoGa Nice ^^. Tror ikke vi kommer til treffes siden Game On varer så lenge og ikke er en helga con, men kanskje :+).

Håper at vi begge kan dra på Game On på Teknisk Museum i Oslo ^^. (Bor i midt Norge så vi for se, men får det mest sannsynligvis til i løpet av sommer).

Så forhåpentligvis vi for det til :+).

(I hope you understand my Norwegian).

What?!!! O.O. Finally something big is coming to Norway for once ^^.

Really hope I will be able to go to Oslo and attend the event as this is really big for me/us .

(Also I hope other countries will get this soon as well).

Edit for Norwegian people: Game On er på det Tekniske Museumet og har faktisk vært der siden 10. Mars fra det jeg/æ forstår. Forhåpentligvis er Game On bra her i Norge også :+).

I have talk to Dream Mix on Zeldainformer's article about Legend Maker and they did say that if there are enough demand for Legend Maker on the Wii U or at least the NX they will consider porting the game.

I have backed Legend Maker with 30$, but am not sure if Legend Maker will be able to reach its goal in time or not. Reason being is that I am not sure who really want the big rewards as they people like me who just want the game ;^^.

Still hopefully Legend Maker will be able to reach its base sketch goal at least :+).

I might have bought bought the game for a young girl I know, but my problem is that I don't live in a English country so like a bit too hard ;^^.

Still I am glad for young kids though and hopefully the game is good enough to play for teens and adults as well :+). (Kinda a like Animal Crossing if good enough and have enough interesting content).

As a person who has nothing against smartphone/tablet games and likes to play turn based RPGs, but also plays on her 3DS and Wii U I have to say dedicated gaming devices are definitely best yet smartphone games can be very convenient on a bus.

I don't think it is anything wrong with playing smartphone/tablet games, but yeah it is sad that the overall all gaming market are suffering because of Smartphones and tablets.

Hopefully Nintendo can recapture today's kids with their upcoming smartphone games and movies :+).

If collection cards only then I will probably at least get some, but if it is a actual playing card game then... while not how I am on the Internet, but give me, give me, give me ^w^.

Yeah, I would be really happy if we got a actual Zelda playing card game I could play with other people and not just collect cards for the sake of them just being Zelda themed cards :+).

Miiverse seem to be on now again for those who are wondering :+).

I am glad we have more 3DS titles to look forward to either before or at E3 :+).

I am personally fine with that the NX is coming next year as I know I will have too many games to finish anyway as usual, and it wouldn't get better with additional Wii U indie and VC games ;^^. Still glad to hear that Nintendo are trying to have as good as possible lineup for the NX.

Either way, I guess we will know more in less than 2 months .

@GN004Nadleeh I have also pick up Japanese words here and there, and I can definitely say that I can't complain during the Japanese Nintendo Directs and other similar cases :+).

I always prefer sub too for anime if I watch any ^^. (Haven't really watched a lot of Animes lately though).

I say this to everyone here, learning some Japanese unconsciously isn't really a bad thing and you get a lot of good perks really :+). (I personally can't complain I think).

This is just me though at least, but I am actually more curious about how many people that will start to recognize some Japanese words unconsciously than cosmetic changes ;^^.

I hope hope everyone here will enjoy the game though, regardless of the changes :+).

As long as there are no significant changes to the overall story I don't really care, I mean it is just cosmetics change and doesn't really change the whole game ;^^.

Either way I am curious about Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE and hopefully I will like the game :+).

Hopefully the Wii U stock issues will be solved in Japan soon as it is sad for the Japanese people that doesn't get a chance to play Wii U games they really want.

Either way I am glad at least that there are Nintendo games are still selling fairly decently :+).

1 April right?
