I live in Hong Kong. Just been to buy a switch from a major chain called Fortress, only to be told I must purchase a game if I want to buy the machine. The machine is advertised in-store and on the website as sold separately. They have a choice of two games (Pokken and Arms) neither of which interest me. I have to ask if this policy is approved of by Nintendo.
I'm glad that we have this information now. Last year I was very excited for Nintendo's E3 and was utterly deflated afterwards. At least now I'm utterly deflated before it starts. Let's just hope that Zelda is that good. It should be by now.
Fans don't know what they want? Call of duty fans know what they want and they buy it in the millions, uncharted fans know what they want and they buy it in the millions. Clearly Nintendo fans wouldn't buy a new Metroid game every few years which was the same game with different environments. A Zelda game every few years? Same style with different dungeons? Surely there's room for these spin offs and the games we all want. Sony and Microsoft don't seem to have a problem selling their big franchises. Fans don't know what they want?
