Also Pikmin Bloom

@Anti-Matter

You didn't even read the whole thing did you? It supports 60fps.

I bet the tariffs caused this. Trying to cut costs with things like this and raise secondary product prices(Amiibo, Controllers etc.) to try and avoid raising the Switch 2 price so early on especially before the holidays.

I'll get Galaxy 2 at a minimum. I have 3D all stars so I might skip the retail package

"But Miyamoto-San we will go over budget if we actually playtest!"

"Did I stutter? Get out of here before I sic the Purple Pikmin on you."

79.99....

This looks good but lmao you aren't GTA or Mario Kart

Even Call of Duty backed off back to 70$.

Every 3D collectathon needs this tbh.

@dDankGM

That is not remotely what Attach Rate is.

If I sell 100 switches and 5 Gooblethingys then Gooblethingys have a 5% Attach rate. That is it. Attach rate in this context has nothing to do with actual usage.

Given that there are third party cameras and non Switch 2 branded cameras that work the amount of people using a camera may well be much higher then 5%. But this article is talking about a specific camera accessory not usage or total cameras used with a Switch 2 of all kinds.

I wonder if they will see what Donkey Kong Bananza did and try a 3D Steamworld Dig?

Assuming a 5% attach rate....selling 80k 55$ camera accessories in a month is pretty good honestly.

Least shocking news tbh.

Gonna be terrible for the games sales missing the holiday and probably arriving about when Switch 2 is about to hit.

Level-5 is really absolute garbage at getting games out the door and handling the marketing sensibly.

They have a metroid Prime 4 situation with most their major releases nowadays...

@Solomon_Rambling

I'm hoping this is sarcasm but if not...We have 18 regular jupiter picross games on switch. S1-9 and E1-9

There are ~4 licensed ones IIRC(Overlord, Kemono Friends, Sega and Namco) and also Logiart Grimoire.

Not gonna lie I'm hoping for a new Mario Picross, Super Smash Picross and a not stamina and micro transaction filled Pokemon picross though.

People can't even handle 2D or the most basic tenets of level design lol.

But do it anyways.

Both figures are as of March 31st btw.

So its after a week and a half and a just over a month.

@Anti-Matter

This is a childish mindset. There is no victim. The crime is meaningless.

He was only selling pokemon. The game does not have pokemon microtransactions. You need a copy to even recieve the pokemon.
The game has hack checks so they can't hurt the online battling either.

They lose no money. No one is hurt. Its a ridiculous overreach.

Modding legally purchased software(or abandonware) should be a legal right anyways.

@Sisilly_G

Agreed. Give it a 1/10 "Its broken don't buy" and move on

Wario and Waluigi

"Balatro was developed by someone whols saur antamour and palstakis care has been taken to ensure that the game does not feature gambling mechanics of any kind"

Uh what?

Regardless this is a nasty thing to do and they need to stop removing games for a simple rating change unless evidence is provided of malicious attempts to significantly manipulate a rating.

-Eshop that runs better
-Way to sell digital games
-Higher internal storage
-More sales on Nintendo games
-Nintendo to not get buttmad over emulators existing so I can play out of print games when the eshop closes down without paying 200$ on ebay
-Complete banning of Denuvo and DRM in eshop games

@Synecdoche

Well given its not even revealed yet likely only the big studios, a handful of mid size ones, close partners like Mercurysteam, and a select few of the biggest indies or indies most trusted by Nintendo have dev kits or much official info.

The number will double, triple or more shortly after the official reveal as the smaller and indie devs that outnumber the major studios get kits or start deving with Switch 2 specs in mind while waiting on a kit.

The number most interested in Switch 2 over any other platform is four times that of the number developing for a reason.

This is good. Even with how Much Nintendo and Monolith soft have expanded they will still need a lot of external help to keep a good cadence of releases and give recently neglected IP like Donkey Kong a new home. And dare I say...F-Zero or even a really old revival like Mysterious Murasame castle.

Or 2D Zelda as the resources for 3D Zelda are enormous now.

I get knight being a mess(though 0FPS is nuts) but the others were on PS3. Zero excuse to not be almost perfect 30fps.

Speedrunners already hatching terrible plots with this knowledge no doubt

@sanderev

Everybody 1-2 Switch
Advance Wars Reboot Camp
Pikmin 1+2
Sushi Strikers
Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE Encore
All Labo Kits except the Variety pack

The first 3 might make it by the end of the FY with Pikmim being most likely and 1-2 Switch being least likely.

Plus a few third party games games they published but not worldwide didn't make it either.

@reporterdavid

Come on man.

The tagline is "Every first-party game that has sold over one million copies." If Nintendo didn't publish it it isn't here(and also if they only publish a game in some regions rather then worldwide we likely won't get updates from Nintendo as they don't have all the sales captured and they rarely publish massive games for third parties anymore) For example triangle stratgey was self published by SE in Japan but published by Nintendo in America and Europe.)

Plenty of third party IP that are million sellers.

Monster Hunter Rise. Over 8 million
Suika Game: 3 Million
Dragon Ball FighterZ - 2.43M
Witcher 3: 1.8 Million
Resident Evil Reveleations collection 1.4m
Etc.

Mamy others we have partial data or no specific numbers but we know they have/have to had sold over a million. Games like

Stardew Valley
Minecraft(over 5 million just from Japan, Spain and French retail sales alone)
Dragon Quest XI: S
Monster Hunter Rise Sunbreak
Crash Bandicoot N'Sane Trilogy
Etc.

I compiled a list a few weeks ago(some games have had updated numbers since mostly Nintendo first party games)

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/189706-nintendo-switch/80601091

For the record Nintendo normally publishes sales of the top 10 all time Nintendo Published sellers per system + whatever Nintendo published that has sold over a million during the fiscal year. Otherwise we wait for CESA numbers once a year(usually in the summer) that cover up till the end of the prior year and covers games that sold over a million on a platform Life to date.

That is some penny pinching nonsense for such a high profile game.

WB can (redacted for foul langauge)

Unless Nintendo decides to follow up on Switch with Wii U 2 and Virtual Boy 2 at the same time...lmao good luck Microsoft.

What I need

-Framerate to be mostly stable
-Pop in and draw distance to be greatly improved
-Not to be bug ridddem
-Refine the open world and world design. Make some interesting dungeons and such.
-More love and care given to animations. Pokemon since going 3D have often felt sterile and lifeless. The N64, GC and spinoff games often have had far better animations for pokemon then post X/Y games.
-Speed things up. Why is the battle system so insanely slow?
-More challenge. Can we get hard mode, single player postgame content etc?

In terms of story and pokemon design I loooove Scarlet/Violet. And world design is much better then Swsh. But it still all feels duck taped together and rushed out.

No new IP option?

3D Mario is the obvious choice. 6 years since the last original one and 2 1/2 years since the last port. The team has had ample time.

Nintendo if Jupiter comes to you for picross you say "Yes" without question dangit!

Juat rename them scalper meals

A 3DS could do a better looking 3D game geez.

Offer Refunds to everyone.

Any free content promised pre launch should be considered part of the purchase. Cancelation is not acceptable.

@Xiovanni

Not give any exclusives to them.

Give them lesser stock of limited release items. Send more elsewhere.

Etc.

*Fifa 19 5 you mean.

It's so dishonest calling a free to play download a sale.

Now you punch her gut and your hand just breaks.

I feel like gamefreak has always been a coding disaster.

Frankly Gamefreak should be strictly the creative team and someone else should be programming the game itself.

And yes we can go more then 3 years without a new gen if there needs more polishing.

Aside from GTAV the entire top 10 is switch exclusives or multiplats with a switch version (and mostly ones that Switch has a plurality or majority of sales)

Level-5 died with the 3DS essentially. They milked their good series to death and completely lost any and all goodwill in the west(which was already strained with their inconsistent localization and poor communication and extremely long waits for localizations in an era where most devs that weren't indie moved to simultaneous release or a least cut waits down to only a few months)

Now Layton is dead, Yokai watch is a shambling Japan only husk and they can't even get an Inazuma eleven game out the door...for a series that was near yearly before.

I stopped even attempting to care about anything they do several years ago and would be surprised if they survive the decade without going under.

@Vil

Least given that there are only two more months left after October...that means MP1 in November, MP2 in December and MP3 In January most likely.

Seems like a respectable effort all around. It's a only like...2 sentences tops for every major character so hard to really judge the voices but they all seem to range from inoffensive to pretty good.

I'm interested.

Shovel Knight 64?

The best? Absolutely not even close.

Fun? Yes despite its jank, low amount of content, godawful voice acting and often poorly aged BS its fun.

Etrian Odyssey VI

Sega owns Atlus just announce it properly already.

Single game directs for already announced games have little bearing on general directs.

We have gotten many single game directs and pokemon presents close to directs.

There are actually several I am interested in but us pretty groanworthy how s good fourth of this is farm aim games.

I am convinced the sole purpose of these is to blue ball us on Silksong periodically.
