"Mix live action with CG animation"

And just like that my minimal interest in this dropped even further.

Although the "no plans" thing could be BS. Plenty of times game companies have utterly lied, or made use of exact words to BS things they aren't ready to announced.

No plans for gen 2 VC?

@MarcelRguez

It's actually over 5 million copies now.

Uh 4U hit 4 million a year ago...you guys reported on it.

https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2015/10/monster_hunter_4_ultimate_passes_four_million_global_sales

So basically they got reckless and than when things went south they made it even worse.

I do feel bad for them getting burned by Wii U but it sounds like they handheld the situation very badly.

Also localization is likely because Monster Hunter has sold over 3 million copies in the west on 3DS.

600K+ for 3U(3DS ver)
1.6 million for 4U
Around 800K for generations(it was at 3.3 million on Capcom's platinum sellers section on their investor website and it updated today for sales as of September 30th to 4.1 million. As generations has been absent the top 20 sellers in Japan for awhile it's been selling a few thousand a week maximum so the vast vast vast majority of that 800K is western sales)

Plus most the game is already localized because of generations. They just need to localize the new characters and G rank content.

It's coming over. Mark my words. Monster Hunter has broken out of being a niche title in the west. It's not as big as in Japan yet
yet but it's certainly a hit and strong seller now. They aren't going to stop the gravy train when they can still top off several hundred thousand more helpings of mash potatoes for themselves with less effort than the last 800K servings.

Generations save transfers to this. So if you have generations don't sell. It's proba worth to pick up generations on sale so you can jump right into the new G rank content.

Maybe better than sonic 06 but that's about this,

This demo is medicore at best. It's too open for its own good. You basically have to try to encounter enemies.

A game like sonic needs some linearity.

Oh and that green hills texture gets kinda nauseating with the combination of camera angles used and speed.

@buildz

With 3DS being almost six years old, Wii U and PS4 doing medicore numbers and XB1 being a complete non factor it's no wonder sales are low.

Let's hope what happened with dream team happens(IIRC dream team debuted at around 30K but actually rose in sales the second week and had several 20K+ weeks in a row.) because Star Rush seems like a notably better effort that Island Tour.

Also advertising, and people disliking Island tour could be a factor in the sales as well.

I for one initially dismissed Star Rush because recent Mario parties(especially Island tour) looked disappointing to me. But footage and more information has changed my mind and I will likely purchase my first Mario party since 8 come November.

@jamesRainbowBoy

To be fair in like Wii to Wii U we actually have several confirmed first party games launching after the Switch launch(Pikmin, Mario Sports Superstars and Ever Oasis)

And none of them are localizations we had waited a long time on either. Although we do have plenty of likely localizations to fuel the library in 2017( and maybe 2018) such as Yokai Watch 3, Etrian Odyssey V, Monster Hunter Stories, Dragon Quest XI etc.

@Kimite They can always increase shipments if preorders trend higher than expected.

Plus it has a single month to sell and probably not even the entirety of that month.

Yeah reminds me of super stardust and Galaga legions.

This is good. We need some N3DS games with solid graphics and we also needed more SHMUPS.

If they made a roller coaster based on Nintendo Stock in the last decade it would be one wild ride.

The Pokemon Go spike would probably result in some fatalities.

And this is that shocking how?

Somewhere from Minor profit to moderate losses was pretty obvious given the barren(except to a small subsection of 3DS owners) release list for the covered period.

They are still expecting a profit for the year as a whole and with the holiday period, Mario Run, Pokemon Sun/Moon, Mario Maker 3D, Switch launch, New Amiibo, and NES mini it's pretty easy to see them hitting their target.

New course themes, mechanics and enemies when?

Seriously where is man factory, forest, desert, space, volcano, beach, ice, etc. themes?
And where are mah chargin chucks, blarghs/magmaargh, mechakoopa, swoopers, shy guys/spear guys, eerie, Sharks, clams, crabs, Pokey, broozer, Octoomba, piranha creepers, , bomb boos, tweester, fire snake, jellybeams and bulbers.
Also water wherever we want please, light/Dark mechanics, barrels, ice flower, cat suit, plus webs/fences, vertical levels and meteors, gravity mechanics

Even just a a 5th of this stuff would be great. Pls Nintendo. Don't waste this opputinity to add new elements to Mario Maker. The updates you did for the U version were cool but too too little.

It's likely all the games shown will arrive in some form. I don't even remember that zombie game for the Wii U reveal but couldn't it have been a early version of ZombiU?

it is possible for them to be canceled or change drastically but we really have little reason to doubt especially for the 3D Mario game.

And thanks to this article we will get several thousand more troll topics on message boards using this as "proof" that third party support will suck on Switch. Not that it was wrong to post the article of anything, but I wish the Internet would stop making the worst assumptions about everything.

Kyogre smelled the pork and couldn't resist going back for a bite to eat.

Serkan do you know what didn't struggle in Japan?

3DS. Over 20 million and still selling decently. And now they have third party support and will consolidate their development on one platform.

It's gonna be fine chillax

@ThomasBW84

A Nintendo Smartphone stronger than PS4 PRO that is sold at a huge profit for just 200$ Probably.

The Investors have stupid and unrealistic expectations. They always want huge immediate gains so they can make a ton of money with no regard for the future of the company. They are completely out of touch with gamers and the core Nintendo fanbase.

I will riot if there is no touchscreen.

How will Etrian odyssey work without a touch screen? Not to mention Mario Maker...

It's better ******* have a touchscreen. Etrian odyssey needs a touchscreen

@Luna_110 It's possible they are finizaling some third party deals so they can announce them at the reveal.

Because they really need to nail the reveal.

@SLIGEACH_EIRE

And given the success of Pokemon Go and how many people signed up for notifications of Super Mario Run....that is not a bad thing for now.

Disappointing numbers unless this Is like Yokai Watch(the first one) and it just sells like 20K+ a week for like a year.

I want those plushies now....

@kamikazilucas No. No they aren't

@kamikazilucas Nintendo has little to do with this.

Namco is the publisher. blame them

Did anyone seriously expect this to have 3D?

It was pretty obivous it wouldn't

We can remove hats and wear glasses.

10/10 game already

Bought a copy because of this article.

Will double dip if a 3DS version does end up happening.

God bless him and his family. He sounds like a talented and all around stellar guy and his son is adorable.

They better localize this and bring those badass Amiibo over.

Actually just do a full on Amiibo lineup for this.

Say a little higher quality slightly larger than normal amiibos for 20-25$?

I would totes buy both the stories ones and a bunch of regular MH Amiibo too.

@HappyMaskedGuy

People need to stop this crap on totally unrelated articles.

"lol not NX don't care"

We know when it's coming so just chillax

Nintendo needs to permantely ban RCMADIAX from all Nintendo platforms.

@Snargledon 3D world and Mario Makef felt pretty fresh.

It took everything 3D land did, took it up to eleven, added multiplayer and did its own things too.

NSMB 2 was meh though. It would've felt fresh if it took the coin mechanic further and had more new assets but it was a glorified expansion pack in the end.

This trailer is dope.

Its like no one thinks Nintendo Killed the Wii U dead enough yet so third parties keep digging the corpse up to kill it more.

3DS already stole severs of the Wii U's "organs"

Please have mercy.

RCMADIAX putting basically no effort into his games?

Gee how unexpected!

After this and treasurenaughts(both of these excite me more than any of RK/Atooi's past games have) Xeodrofter 2 would be great.

xeodrifter was the first RK game that I really got hooked on.

Sounds great...

Poor treasurenaughts though...feels like its title should be

"Treasurenaught ever releasing"

:/

@Angelic_Lapras_King

Yeah but we have some 2017 release confirmed or quasi confirmed.

Yokai Watch 3
Snack World
Lady Layton
Ever Oasis
Etrian Odyssey V

For example.

Oh god please localize this please. What company makes these?

I need to know so I can blow their Facebook up with enthusiastic localization requests.

My wanted localization list is too big.

Dragon quest XI
Yokai Watch 3(as long as 2 doesn't bomb we will get this though)
Etrian Odyssey V(it's a forgone conclusion that we will get it in NA...but official confirmation is always soothing)
Puzzles and Dragons X
Picross 3D
Detective Pikachu
Monster Hunter Stories
Etc.

:/

Blast em bunnies DLC literally costs way more than the game even with its DLC half off....

We got a few new games revealed last year right?

Let's hope that happens again!

Technically only one of these is a new reveal.

We have known about all but the crab dude(who is actually pretty cool) for a week or so.

If only this thing had arena trap.

It would be amazing for revenge killing Choice band attackers like Scizor.

Sega announces a game us Gaijins will never get :/

No rotom pokedex in new features?
