You'd think this and Hyper Light Drifter would've been in the showcase as they would've been two of the bigger announcements and made the overall direct less disappointing.
When Splatoon 2 came out I didn't get it because it seemed too similar to Splatoon 1, but I'm more interested after seeing this. Hopefully there''ll be a complete edition or something down the line and I may get that.
I'm suprised people seem disappointed by this. Remember it's a spin off not a sequel, and the gameplay to me looks as bonkers as the best of Suda51's stuff.
Labo
Kirby
DK: Tropical Freeze
Ace Attorney
Wolfenstein 2
Diablo 3
Those Namco Bandai games (maybe Metroid)
Hyrule Warriors
A 3DS/DS game ported to Switch
Detective Pikachu
Yokai Watch 3
Valkeria Chronicles
Project Octopath Traveller
Some Indie Games
N Sane Trilogy
1 or 2 suprises/ New announcements
Maybe a release date for Yoshi and Fire Emblem
Anyone who hasn't played Celeste should definitely do so, it's easily my favourite out of the ones on this list. Also I would've swapped out Floor Kids and Stardew Valley (which just doesn't appeal to me) for Night in the Woods and Enter the Gungeon.
I'd have thought this game would come out before E3. If this is true the only big releases for the first half of 2018 are, Dragon Quest Builders, Bayonetta 2, Payday 2, Kirby, Labo, Tropical Freeze and Dark Souls, with Kirby and Labo being the only new games.
That's a little disappointing for the first half of the year.
Makes perfect sense. Sounds like all they are doing is bringing digital pre orders in line with physical ones. If you can cancel a physical pre order you should be able to cancel a digital one.
Nice numbers, 9 million for Super Mario Odyssey is very impressive. I have a question, do Nintendo only announce the first party best sellers on the Switch or are we to read this as no 3rd party game reached a million? Because i'd have thought games like Rocket League and Mario + Rabbids would've at least reached 1 million.
I didn't vote for MP4 or Bayonetta 3 because they don't have a definite release date for 2018. The three I voted for were No More Heroes, TWEWY and Dark Souls.

Re: Action Platformer Shadow Bug Will Put Your Speedrunning Skills To The Test Next Week
Looks pretty fun, when my backlog clears a little i'll look into this one.

Re: Feature: Which Games Do You Want To See In Today's Nindies Showcase?
I'd like to see Bloodstained, Inside, Shovel Knight, Guacamelee 2 and Spelunky 2.
Re: Nindies Showcase For Nintendo Switch Airing Next Week
I'm hoping for more information on Inside, Shovel Knight and Hollow Knight.
Re: Nintendo Download: 15th March (Europe)
Nothing for me this week.
Re: Runbow Sprints Onto Switch On 24th April, With A Deluxe Edition Hitting Retail In June
I may get physical, depending on price.
Re: Shantae And The Pirate’s Curse Comes To The Switch Next Week
Good game but I have it on Wii U already and don't want to double dip.
Re: Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy Is Finally Confirmed For Nintendo Switch
@dumedum I've played almost every Crash game, and I consider Crash of the Titans to be the worst one I've played.
Re: This Is What Travis Strikes Again: No More Heroes Looks Like In Action
@khaosklub I don't know if a sequel's coming too. But there's nothing wrong with a spin off simply being a spin off.
Plus a lot of people took against Federation Force's gameplay too, whereas this just looks like a solid game that's gone in a different direction.
Re: The Splatoon 2 Octo Expansion Will Add A Brand New Single-Player Campaign Mode This Summer

Re: Praise The Sun, We're Getting A Dark Souls Solaire Amiibo
@gordjscott You can do the Praise the Sun emote in the original, this presumably just unlocks it early.
Re: Praise The Sun, We're Getting A Dark Souls Solaire Amiibo
I want this.
Re: Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy Is Finally Confirmed For Nintendo Switch
I'll be double dipping on this.
Re: Nintendo Download: 8th March (Europe)
Just Flinthook for me this week.
Re: Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Trilogy Secures Western April Release On Switch
Looks like this is the three games that Namco was working on.
Re: Surprise! There's A New Nintendo Direct Coming, And It's Due Tomorrow
@WiltonRoots This made me laugh, well done.
Re: Nintendo UK Wants To Know Which Switch Games Made Your Top Ten
I do not have twitter so I can't enter sadly.

Yay!
In addition to Mario Tennis Aces I predict

Re: Review: Fear Effect: Sedna (Switch eShop)
That's a shame, I was interested in this but I'll likely just wait for a sale now.
Re: Feature: Nintendo Life's Top Ten eShop Games From Switch's First Year
Anyone who hasn't played Celeste should definitely do so, it's easily my favourite out of the ones on this list. Also I would've swapped out Floor Kids and Stardew Valley (which just doesn't appeal to me) for Night in the Woods and Enter the Gungeon.
Re: Review: Hollow (Switch eShop)
Yowch! I was interested in this but decided to wait on reviews, glad I did.
Re: Rumour: Amazon Spain Listing Suggests Mario Tennis Aces Will Take Centre Court In June
I'd have thought this game would come out before E3. If this is true the only big releases for the first half of 2018 are, Dragon Quest Builders, Bayonetta 2, Payday 2, Kirby, Labo, Tropical Freeze and Dark Souls, with Kirby and Labo being the only new games.
That's a little disappointing for the first half of the year.
Re: Guide: PAYDAY 2 Heist Tips - How To Grab Loot, Escape, And Get Paid
Thanks for all these, as someone interested in Payday 2 but not sure where to start these guides have been invaluable.
Re: Break Out Those Calendars Because 27th February Is Pokémon Day
Gen 8 announcement?
Re: Two Free Legendary Pokémon Will Hit Your Nintendo 3DS System This March
@8-Bit_Superman Yeah gen 4 legendary.
Anyway I don't have Regigigas so will get myself down to GAME sometime in March.
Re: Nintendo Download: 22nd February (Europe)
Payday 2 and Typoman.
Re: Review: Superola And The Lost Burgers (Switch eShop)
Maybe I'm just getting old but I don't understand why anyone would want to play a meme game.
Or why anyone would want to make one for that matter.
Re: Guide: PAYDAY 2 Skill Trees - How the Skill System Works and All Skills Listed
Is it best to stick to one skill tree or to spread your points over different trees? How many points does it take to completely fill a sub tree?
Re: Fear The Dark (And Everything In It) As Those Who Remain Stalks Onto Switch
Looks cool.
@Nincompoop What makes you think he's lying? he just said he didn't find VR experiences scary.
Re: Random: Nintendo Lands Itself In Hot Water With Norway
Makes perfect sense. Sounds like all they are doing is bringing digital pre orders in line with physical ones. If you can cancel a physical pre order you should be able to cancel a digital one.
Re: The Lost Child Is Bringing Cthulhu-Inspired Demons To Switch This Year
I'd like to see some gameplay.
Re: Guide: Payday 2 FAQ - Everything You Need To Know About The Co-Op Heist Shooter
Probably gonna get this, there's not enough shooters on the switch and a multiplayer bank robbing game sounds fun.
Re: Arena Shooter At Sundown Will Plunge The Switch Into Darkness This Spring
Looks cool, will keep an eye on it.
Re: Heavy FIFA 18 Switch Discount Sends The Footie Franchise to Number One in The UK Charts
Bayonetta 2 and Kingdom Come Deliverance both did better than I was expecting, though I knew neither would make it to number 1 in the UK.
Re: Super-Tough Platformer OkunoKa Has Been Announced For Nintendo Switch
Giant Bomb calls this type of game a splatformer and honestly I think that's a better name for the genre.
Masacore just sounds weird to me.
Re: Nintendo Download: 15th February (Europe)
Getting Bayonetta 1 and 2 and Dragon Quest Builders from last week.
Re: Fear Effect: Sedna Will Run, Guns Blazing, Onto Switch On 6th March
For £16 i'll take a punt.
Re: Hideki Kamiya Shares Background of Bayonetta 3 Development
I have high hopes for Bayonetta 3.
Re: Ubisoft Is the Leading Third-Party Publisher on Nintendo Switch
@MartyFlanMJFan If he went into the redownload section on the eshop he would find it, but I think that's the only way.
Re: Rumour: Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy Might Be Spinning Its Way Onto Switch
Yeah i'd buy this.
Re: Nintendo Download: 1st February (Europe)
Interested in Night in the Woods, also got Celeste from last week. Will there be a review of Night in the Woods on this site?
Re: The Town of Light: Deluxe Edition Is Coming Exclusively To Nintendo Switch This Spring
Didn't enjoy this when I played it, so won't be getting it on switch.
Re: Nintendo Releases Stunning Third Quarter Financial Results, Confirms Switch Sales Have Overtaken Wii U
Nice numbers, 9 million for Super Mario Odyssey is very impressive.

Re: Image & Form And Zoink! Games Join Forces Under New Company Thunderful
@imageform Oh you tease!
Seriously though good luck to you and Zoink, I like the games you both make.
Re: Nintendo Download: 25th January (Europe)
Well i'll be picking up the Easter Island DLC for Chess Ultra (seeing as it's free). Nothing else for me this week though.
Re: Feature: The Most Exciting Indie Games Coming to Nintendo Switch In 2018
Went for Bloodstained, Inside and Shovel Knight.
Is Night in the Woods any good? I've heard mixed responses.
Re: Feature: The Biggest Nintendo Switch Retail Games of 2018
I didn't vote for MP4 or Bayonetta 3 because they don't have a definite release date for 2018. The three I voted for were No More Heroes, TWEWY and Dark Souls.
Re: Nintendo Download: 18th January (Europe)
Darkest Dungeon: Ancestral Edition is tempting.
Re: Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 Sells 500,000 Copies Worldwide On Nintendo Switch
Not bad at all, I'll echo what others here are saying and ask for FighterZ on the Switch (it would be such a good fit).
