They should give different small IPs like punch-out, ice climbers, mothers and other Smash characters old IPs that they will probably never touch again to indie studios to experiment with, so if it fails, it is just a small ip and if it succeed, the Switch will have another cool exclusive in the backlog
It will be a nice way for them to use their older IPs, help indie studios and get exclusives
I might bite for some games, but my backlog is already big, especially now that epic games create a backlog for the computer as well (it’s raining free games!)
Ring fit adventure sales are amazing!
Pokémon sale are more than the game deserves.... as someone who bough at least one game every gen since gen 3 and played of course played the first 2 gens
Monolith is not the only studio working at the game (teams from Nintendo biggest studio, Nintendo themselves, are working on this game as well) and Monolith have 5 studios working on at least 4 or 5 games while 2 or 3 of those are still unknown
They are always on the look out for developers and they opened their new studio only few months ago, this hiring doesn’t have to be Zelda related at all
@Ventilator I only find the anniversary edition, is this the one? Cause it is only 66% and not 90% And if I go the game page I will see it is for free?
Hmmm they said they might do a Zelda maker in the future if the dungeon maker in TOZ LA will be successful.... might be another way of testing the demand.... Zelda maker 2020/2021! It will be awesome!!!!
This is smart It will bump all of this games to the top of the eshop charts which in teen make them selling better in the future and help building their name
I already have Robonauts but a 9 games boost to my library is always welcome
Star Wars is somehow losing money right now, Marvel comics collapsing and their movie will make less from now on (probably.... idk), the theme park losing their momentum as it seems and less people are coming And merch sales are falling for many Disney properties Not hating on Disney, I love many franchises including Star Wars and Marvel and many of their own movies
Today in the US and in Japan kids know Mario before they know Mickey
Nintendo grew significantly in the last 2 years with new game studio+ increasing their teams, movies and tv shows, building 2 them parks, opening Physical and digital stores to increase the brand and the company stuff grew significantly as they hired about 1000 people in the last year or so....
And they have tones of money to invest to grow now, Disney is light years ahead of them in size of course but they are working hard to grow now
I bought this stock a while back at a bad time because I thought it will rise to the 60$ fast but than some big shark started shorting and I didn’t have much extras money to ride on the short....
@Yorumi I wonder where are my GBA.... or at least my ds, it’s backwards compatibility should do the trick lol and I want to Set up my we and play Pokémon colosseum property (when I was young I only played the battle simulator, I need to play it the way it was intended lol)
@Crockin because the are cheap! This is the biggest franchise in the world! Game freak is rich AF! And they are backed up by Creatures and Nintendo! Smaller budget games have those features, most of the game assents were copied from gen 7, and come on, loading the characters before you see them is a basic of the basic
@Crockin want the same game? No one want the exact same game.... The hardcore only want a high quality game with all the Pokémon, we want NPCs to load before we see them and not appearing out of thin air because this look just bad
We want all the content and more instead of cut content
And most of all, we don’t want to have certain Pokémon locked in a cloud behind a pay wall until one day, in a year? 2 years? 5 years???? We will have a game that we can transfer them into
Game freak did an EA while EA actually did a Nintendo
Ring fit adventure is a stupidly good selling product I heard that it keeps on running out of stores in Japan Nintendo, I hope you will increase production because the next few months will be crazy
@gamer89 although true, this kind of game isn’t the type that usually sales much (although Nintendo prove it is wrong time and time again with their literally sport games)
I decided to not buy the game at lunch like planned as a kind of temporary wallet voting For the first time ever since gen 3 (were I started with the games) I am considering to not even buying this one at all, the price went up but as it seems, the quality and passion went down.... I will see once the reviews are up (never thought I would say that on a Pokémon game.... sigh 😔 )

Re: Chinese Nintendo Switch Packaging Appears Online Ahead of Release
@BarefootBowser not really, but Nintendo not doing business in China is worse for the Chinese People than if Nintendo wouldn’t do that
It is a complicated issue....

Re: Chinese Nintendo Switch Packaging Appears Online Ahead of Release
@BarefootBowser Nintendo is a business and most of their products is made in China (not all of it, but a lot) including most of the Switch systems
They, like most big companies, are deeply involved in China anyway
