It looks so impressive, and I can't believe how well the open world looks and feels. They kept bringing up Super Mario Sunshine when describing the game and I can definitely see the comparison.
Wii U ports won't get people like me to buy this thing in 2017. Quick games are nice, but aside from Super Mario Odyssey, Splatoon 2, and Arms (which I wouldn't consider a system seller), there isn't anything coming out in 2017 that would stop me from waiting a year or two (Xenoblade looks cool but I bet it will be delayed). If Nintendo showed off some big titles coming to the Switch next year or beyond it would sway a lot of people like me who are ok with waiting.
What a curveball. I understand that the Switch is kind of recent and that this game was probably made well before its release, but this game still feels very unnecessary. It's not on Switch or a gen 1/gen 4 remake for either Switch or 3DS, so what's the point? Also those weird forms of the legendary Pokémon look weird.
I bet it will be a Pokémon stadium/Battle Revolution type game releasing this year. This would allow them to make all of the models in HD instead of doing all that and making a game on top of that.
More third party characters! The 3rd party characters they have recently added have been so cool and there are plenty more (like Sora or Monster Hunter) that could be great additions.
I don't have a Switch, but this game went from looking like a gimmicky Wii boxing clone to looking like an awesome new IP. The modes, characters, and customization have won me over.
The art on these old Nintendo comics is always awesome to see. Considering how simple Dr.Mario is, it's crazy that they were able to craft a story like that from it.
I can believe it. Considering they are already brainstorming on the sequel to BOTW I can imagine why they want to ride BOTW's momentum. The Zelda series is huge with plenty of mini games or possible ideas for a mobile game so I'm interested to see what they come up with. Just no Metroid mobile game plz...
It's something they see promise in, so they want to use it before their competition makes it big. It's awesome advertisement as well, and playing a game competitively would be fun.
We need some big Switch announcements, and Nintendo needs to dig into their vault of IPs which means sequels to dormant franchises like Metroid and VC titles from the Game Cube. Give me a compelling reason to buy a Switch besides two Wii U ports! Also the 3DS should have some fun surprises.
My Nintendo could use literally anything to make it worth logging on weekly. People complained about Club Nintendo for no reason, but My Nintendo is so bad.
Badges were ok but they weren't worth paying money for. Also the games were definitely rigged. I wonder if they made enough money with it to make a Switch version worth making.
It will be a good E3 for Nintendo as long as they announce some big Switch games. Anything announced for 3DS will be great, but they really need some showstoppers on Switch. Give me a reason to buy a Switch in 2017 besides two Wii U ports!
Kirby is easily one of Nintendo's best franchises. I think Super Star Ultra on DS is the best game, but there are so many good games in this series that it's hard to pick just one.
If they bring equivalent ports to the Switch then it is very important that Nintendo fans buy it. If you want 3rd party games on Nintendo platforms, buy them! If you don't buy them you have no right to complain.
That's a lot of dlc, but most of it seems very optional. It's too much dlc imo, but only packs 3 and 4 sound important. Locking classes and other important story chapters behind dlc is a dangerous concept.

Re: Gallery: These Yoshi on Nintendo Switch Screenshots Have a Good Feel
I wonder what the actual title will be? Looks kind of like Super Paper Mario so that's cool.
Re: Video: Listen to Super Mario Odyssey's Vocal Theme Song in Full
Surprisingly catchy and it also matches the game very well.
Re: A New Pokémon RPG Has Been Confirmed For Development For Nintendo Switch
I almost wish they hadn't said this. The last thing we need is a rushed Pokémon game on a brand new platform.
Re: Super Mario Odyssey Features 2D Wall-Merging Gameplay, Like A Zelda We Could Mention
It looks so impressive, and I can't believe how well the open world looks and feels. They kept bringing up Super Mario Sunshine when describing the game and I can definitely see the comparison.
Re: Remake of Metroid II, Metroid: Samus Returns, Announced for 3DS at E3
2 new Metroid games announced in the span of an hour. I think Nintendo won E3.
Re: Video: Marth Takes Centre Stage In Fire Emblem Warriors E3 Footage
Hopefully we get more characters than just the ines from the 3DS games.
Re: A New Yoshi Game Is In Development For The Nintendo Switch
Looks cool and sort of like Super Paper Mario so I'm interested.
Re: Super Mario Odyssey to Launch on 27th October
It looks creative and based on the stream it looks like fun too. Open world is doing some great things to Nintendo series.
Re: Thank Samus, Metroid Prime 4 Has Been Confirmed For Nintendo Switch
Best announcement of the direct by far. It can come out in 2025 and I would still wait. Looks like I will need a Switch by 2018.
Re: Video: The Top 5 Most Embarrassing E3 Moments by Nintendo
No E3 2015?
Re: Editorial: The Nintendo Switch, E3 and Its Opportunities for Quick Wins

Re: Here's The Free Gift My Nintendo Members Get During The Summer Of Play 2017 Tour
See? Free water bottles are so much better than free virtual console games! I wish My Nintendo didn't exist.
Re: Etrian Odyssey V And SMT: Strange Journey Redux Confirmed For Western 3DS Release
Do I need to play the other Etrian Odyssey games to play this one?
Re: Pokémon Gold And Silver Are Coming To The 3DS Virtual Console
These were my favorite games in the series... until heart gold and soul silver came out
Re: Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon Confirmed for 17th November Release on 3DS
What a curveball. I understand that the Switch is kind of recent and that this game was probably made well before its release, but this game still feels very unnecessary. It's not on Switch or a gen 1/gen 4 remake for either Switch or 3DS, so what's the point? Also those weird forms of the legendary Pokémon look weird.
Re: Pokkén Tournament DX Confirmed For Nintendo Switch
I have yet to buy a Switch and so far I'm only missing out on enhanced ports. Hopefully E3 changes my mind.
Re: Pokkén Tournament DX Confirmed For Nintendo Switch
I'm hoping for more partner Pokémon and stages as well, but a new mode and 5 new fighters is pretty good.
Re: Get Ready for a Pokémon Direct on 6th June
I bet it will be a Pokémon stadium/Battle Revolution type game releasing this year. This would allow them to make all of the models in HD instead of doing all that and making a game on top of that.
Re: Guide: A Nintendo Fan's Breakdown of E3 2017's Press Conferences and Events
I watch every press conference besides pc. E3 is always a great time of year.
Re: Nintendo Reveals More Details About its Paid Online Service
$20 a year is great compared to the competition. Just don't try to be too unique and ruin it.
Re: Video: James Farr's Star Wars Story Continues in The Triforce Awakens Part 2
This series is probably the best Nintendo fan animation out there. Thanks for letting me know this came out!
Re: E3 is Coming, Which Means Anonymous Super Smash Bros. Switch 'Screenshots'
Fake, it's too low on detail and Mario looks photoshopped.

BUY IT!!!
Re: Confidence in Nintendo Grows as Share Value Surpasses Previous Pokémon GO Peak
Wow, and this is by selling actual video games and not selling out like every investor wanted them to.
Re: The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess is Now Approved for Sale in China
It sucks that they have waited this long for it but I guess it's a win win. Nintendo gets to make some cash and China gets an awesome game.
Re: Poll: Who Would You Like To See In Super Smash Bros. For Nintendo Switch?
I voted Tom Nook because I think he has a lot of potentiality cool move set ideas.
Re: Poll: Who Would You Like To See In Super Smash Bros. For Nintendo Switch?
@VENOMVSCARNAGE
I think less characters means less characters that are competitively viable (not many Melee characters are).
Re: Poll: Who Would You Like To See In Super Smash Bros. For Nintendo Switch?
More third party characters! The 3rd party characters they have recently added have been so cool and there are plenty more (like Sora or Monster Hunter) that could be great additions.
Re: Feature: The Big ARMS Direct Summary and the Key Question - Did It Win You Over?
I don't have a Switch, but this game went from looking like a gimmicky Wii boxing clone to looking like an awesome new IP. The modes, characters, and customization have won me over.
Re: Random: Does Dr. Mario Take Place Inside Luigi's Brain? A Manga From 1990 Says It Does...
The art on these old Nintendo comics is always awesome to see. Considering how simple Dr.Mario is, it's crazy that they were able to craft a story like that from it.
Re: Video: This Culdcept Revolt Overview Covers Card Types, Online Play And Story
I'm really interested in this so hopefully people play it online.
Re: New Splatoon 2 Switch Accessories And Hardware Bundle Announced
That bundle might make me consider getting a Switch... If it weren't exclusive to Japan and didn't cost more than a standard Switch.
Re: Ubisoft Confirms It Has An Unannounced Nintendo Switch Game in Development
Maybe it's that rabbids game or the new Assassins Creed?
Re: Sega Is Looking To Revive Some Of Its Past Classics
An HD remaster of Daytona USA with online multiplayer would be sweet. A real Mega Man game would also be great but it's highly unlikely.
Re: Rumour: Nintendo Is Working On A Smartphone Legend Of Zelda Game
I can believe it. Considering they are already brainstorming on the sequel to BOTW I can imagine why they want to ride BOTW's momentum. The Zelda series is huge with plenty of mini games or possible ideas for a mobile game so I'm interested to see what they come up with. Just no Metroid mobile game plz...
Re: Poll: Nintendo is Keen on 'Social Competitive Gaming' on Switch - Are You Game?
It's something they see promise in, so they want to use it before their competition makes it big. It's awesome advertisement as well, and playing a game competitively would be fun.
Re: Talking Point: Nintendo Sets the Scene for Mario and the Switch at E3
We need some big Switch announcements, and Nintendo needs to dig into their vault of IPs which means sequels to dormant franchises like Metroid and VC titles from the Game Cube. Give me a compelling reason to buy a Switch besides two Wii U ports! Also the 3DS should have some fun surprises.
Re: Nintendo Badge Arcade Receives Its Last Set of Badges in Japan Later This Month
@HyrulianOfHyrule
My Nintendo could use literally anything to make it worth logging on weekly. People complained about Club Nintendo for no reason, but My Nintendo is so bad.
Re: Nintendo Badge Arcade Receives Its Last Set of Badges in Japan Later This Month
Badges were ok but they weren't worth paying money for. Also the games were definitely rigged. I wonder if they made enough money with it to make a Switch version worth making.
Re: Poll: Are You Excited About Nintendo's E3 2017 Plans?
@JKRiki
Aside from Hyrule Warriors which was a port, I would say only 5 of those games were actually good.
Re: Poll: Are You Excited About Nintendo's E3 2017 Plans?
It will be a good E3 for Nintendo as long as they announce some big Switch games. Anything announced for 3DS will be great, but they really need some showstoppers on Switch. Give me a reason to buy a Switch in 2017 besides two Wii U ports!
Re: Review: BYE-BYE BOXBOY! (3DS eShop)
If only they localized the trilogy cartridge in NA. I would buy it on the spot so I could get the other games too.
Re: Kirby Director Shares a Few Words on the Series’ 25th Anniversary
Kirby is easily one of Nintendo's best franchises. I think Super Star Ultra on DS is the best game, but there are so many good games in this series that it's hard to pick just one.
Re: EA Is Considering Bringing More Games to Nintendo Switch
If they bring equivalent ports to the Switch then it is very important that Nintendo fans buy it. If you want 3rd party games on Nintendo platforms, buy them! If you don't buy them you have no right to complain.
Re: NBA 2K18 Shaquille O'Neal Special Editions Coming to Nintendo Switch
If you want the Switch to have 3rd party support, then supporting a game like this is a must.
Re: Pokémon Trading Card Game's Guardians Rising Expansion Is Out In The UK Now
The cards look awesome, but the game itself is facing a major power creep. They need to make some good counters against gx cards.
Re: Nintendo Outlines Pricing and Details for DLC in Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia
That's a lot of dlc, but most of it seems very optional. It's too much dlc imo, but only packs 3 and 4 sound important. Locking classes and other important story chapters behind dlc is a dangerous concept.
Re: Poll: What Do You Think of the Zelda: Breath of the Wild - The Master Trials DLC?
It's not bad for a first round of DLC. A lot of these are just small additions to an already incredible game.
