I think we will get a next gen console announcement before a direct. If neither come then I will be shocked that Nintendo is dragging us along so much.
If they want to talk about the inner workings of Nintendo they could write a book, but what they want is what we have, a tour of the chocolate factory.
For decades tourist have been skulking around their headquarters trying to get a peek, and so the Nintendo Museum gives those people a destination to go to.
Remember when the Switch came with an IR sensor in the Joy-Con and everyone was like, "what is this for?" and then a year later Labo was announced. Well I imagine this strange patent will be used in whatever crazy gimmick thing that will cost way too much for the Switch TOO.
This is a sign of things to come, what happens when the game is 60GB on Switch 2 with those 1440p graphics? Do you think companies will not just make you download most of it to save money?
I think the Pokemon company and Nintendo are taking the mick here. Are they going to charge extra to play their extremely old games that any phone can download for free and play??
I think more than ever with theme parks and movies Nintendo is trying to keep the focus on Nintendo and not a particular dev.
I feel like Nintendo itself has decided it is now bigger than simply a game developer but now they are fostering a global brand that transcends one medium. Best to focus on Nintendo the brand with all it’s projects.
It's small dev with limited budget and clearly the quality could not be maintained on Switch.. A game like this used to run flawless on Nintendo DS and 3DS, Switch is more than powerful enough. It is simply a lack of money and knowhow that made this fail.
Hopefully it will be patched, because the Switch is probably the ideal platform for sales.
Wait a minute, are you trying to tell me Epic is CHARGING money for virtual Lego items? I thought all video games were free???? I mean this is Fortnite, and you are trying to tell me there is a store that charges money?? Who ever heard of such a thing??!!!
If you didn't think the "free" Lego expansion was not going to sell you stuff you need to have your head checked.
This I believe the only Star Wars game that lets you easily drive AT-AT's around at will. The newer Battlefront games treat them like short timed rail events.
I was hoping this work like a Yoshi game where you have a to b levels but then to 100% it is more challenging. Also there is loads of collectibles to earn.

Star Fox, come on Nintendo! Even f-zero got a game!
Re: Talking Point: What Is Nintendo Thinking Trying To Keep The Lid On This Playtest Program?
This should have been a paid internal thing to test this. No way Nintendo is this stupid.
Re: As Expected, Nintendo Is Struggling To Contain Switch Online Playtest Leaks
From what I saw if THAT is what they plan on releasing I am not interested, if it is a framework for something else in the future, maybe.
Re: Round Up: The Previews Are In For Mario & Luigi: Brothership
I think after that football kick animation we can assume it’s next level games makers of Mario Strikers and Luigi’s Mansion 3

Nintendo is a lifestyle brand now, think about it the My Nintendo Store is selling tons of merch.
Nintendo and Pokemon are all about lifestyle brands.
Imagine rushing into your local GAME and queuing for the new Nintendo Alarmo! LOL
Re: Talking Point: After A September No-Show, Will There Be An October Nintendo Direct?
I think we will get a next gen console announcement before a direct. If neither come then I will be shocked that Nintendo is dragging us along so much.
Re: Feature: The Nintendo Museum Goes Hard On Merch & Fun, But Could Dive Deeper Into History
If they want to talk about the inner workings of Nintendo they could write a book, but what they want is what we have, a tour of the chocolate factory.

Re: Nintendo Submits "Mysterious New Wireless Device" To FCC

Re: Random: Someone 3D Printed The Rumoured 'Switch 2' Design
If the Switch successor is NOT this people will be in uproar. Nintendo Ninjas may have to disappear this woman!

Re: EA's Vince Zampella Praises Nintendo As He Teases The Next Battlefield
If Nintendo can manage decent online connectivity and voice chat + we get Battlefield on switch, I literally will never need another console again.
Re: Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection For Switch Confirmed As "Code In Box" Release (Europe)
This is a sign of things to come, what happens when the game is 60GB on Switch 2 with those 1440p graphics? Do you think companies will not just make you download most of it to save money?
Re: Nintendo Announces New Switch OLED 'Super Mario Bros. Wonder' Bundle
Imagine how many Switch's they would sell if they a themed Mario Kart 8 special edition console that included MK8 Deluxe and Booster Course Pass

Re: Nintendo Expands Switch Online's GBA Library With Pokémon
I don’t really care for Pokémon and the older games, but is shocks me the Pokémon are so late to releasing their GBA games in Switch.
I mean it is a slap of the face to fans.
Re: Review: LEGO Animal Crossing - Fly With Dodo Airlines - A Great Little Set With One Glaring Omission
I am fairly certain they will do an Animal Crossing CMF series in the future. He will probably be in there.
Re: Nintendo Expands Switch Online's GBA Library With Pokémon
I think the Pokemon company and Nintendo are taking the mick here. Are they going to charge extra to play their extremely old games that any phone can download for free and play??
Re: Review: LEGO Animal Crossing - K.K.'s Concert At The Plaza - A Pleasing But Pricey Set

Re: Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition Launches On Switch In July
Should have come with the power glove, it is so rad!
Re: Gallery: Nintendo Introduces The Cast Of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door
Well so much for the dev who told us they weren't allowed to use unique characters anymore. I guess Nintendo course corrected very quickly!
Re: Talking Point: Why Isn't Nintendo Revealing Its Partner Devs Before Launch?
I think more than ever with theme parks and movies Nintendo is trying to keep the focus on Nintendo and not a particular dev.
I feel like Nintendo itself has decided it is now bigger than simply a game developer but now they are fostering a global brand that transcends one medium. Best to focus on Nintendo the brand with all it’s projects.
Re: Review: Contra: Operation Galuga (Switch) - Does The Series Proud, But Best Played Elsewhere
It's small dev with limited budget and clearly the quality could not be maintained on Switch.. A game like this used to run flawless on Nintendo DS and 3DS, Switch is more than powerful enough. It is simply a lack of money and knowhow that made this fail.
Hopefully it will be patched, because the Switch is probably the ideal platform for sales.
Re: Talking Point: Should We Be Expecting More From Remakes And Remasters?
I just want Star Fox Zero without the two screen nonsense or Star Fox Assault.

Re: LEGO Fortnite Is Under Fire For Brand New 'Kits'

Re: Reminder: LEGO Animal Crossing Sets Are Out Today, Will You Be Picking One Up?
I bought Isabel’s Visit and it’s small but gives you the best “starter set” experience as it comes with a house, Isabel and tools, a garden, etc
It uses the Mario round connector piece system so you could connect it with Lego Mario for a bizzaro Nintendo Lego crossover.
Just like with Lego Mario these will I think get larger adult focused sets in the future.
The sets are very well priced for what it is. Easy to mix these with other Lego bricks for more stuff.
Re: Sega Implies That Releasing Sonic Superstars Next To Super Mario Bros. Wonder Wasn't Smart

Re: The Original Star Wars: Battlefront Games Are Coming To Switch

Rare replay is on gamepass stream it to your device.
Re: The Original Star Wars: Battlefront Games Are Coming To Switch
I don’t know what took EA so long, it obvious! They have literally no games coming and this is such an easy one.
Star Wars Battlefront (the good ones) 64 player online on the go. Sells itself.
Re: Hands On: We've Played Princess Peach: Showtime! - Is It Any Good?

Re: Soapbox: With Switch Online, It's The Perfect Time To Bring Back These Wii U Gems
Instead porting these titles why not bake the spirit of them into NSO with leaderboards, speed running, unlocks and weekly, monthly challenges.
