@Andrzej777 i feel for the third party they've gone for make sense, that's the ones that will sell. if it was say cod battlefield yeah it would be meh.
@SavoirFaire less decisions = more sales look at the wii u, had loads of choices 3rd party left because everyone got mario u and other nintnedo games. if you was third party would put out your game out the same time as a new Zelda?
@Cyberbotv2 same could be said for sony with all the remasters and ps3 games brought to the ps4. then the ps4 pro on top of that, add in reselling the ps move for vr at a stupidly high price btw, 6 year old tech and yeah you was saying?
@Peterjr1 well monster hunter getting a new 3ds game in japan real soon or is out, so that would have killed it. i think they'll wait till they show the mobile AC and make it a direct like the Fire Emblem direct was.
@Kosmo i agree they plan to keep the hype going leading up to the release giving out more info, it's likely why the ui and e shop has yet to be shown off imo.
@Jessica286 yeah i know the 3ds market is huge and they will likely be swayed over to the new hybrid in time, especially if nintendo get smart and sell a sku without the dock as a portable version only. they sell the dock alone so you could get it if you wanted it in the future anyway. to me this them looking at the future with possible upgrades, if you only have to buy the middle hardware they could upgrade it in time and charge us less because we would have the dock/joycons already.
@impurekind i own uncharted 4 and i don't think much to it, starts way to slow and removes things from past games that they realised oh wait people like that... put it in multiplayer aka the super natural element from uc 1 2 3, yes as said i own a ps4 as well i owned a ps3 also.
@Jessica286 thats why the 3ds is still being supported sun/moon gave them huge boost in sales, through same could happen if pokemon is put on the switch too cause pokemon is friggin gigantic of a ip.
@_ijin if they have the games transfer over then yeah i'm super happy. i doubt the wii u games will because the gamepad/ switch tablet are very different things though.
@impurekind basicly meaning duh, it's same ip it's gonna have similarities. and they stil haven't shown off the game only a demo of it
i could say the oh um gravity rush 2 is 1.5 remastered game for the ps4 too... but that would be lying, there's new mechanics and changes to the game.
@Yorumi i'd say keep checking you might get lucky nintnedo are claiming they will have enough to go around of cause if this blows up they will not have enough.
@Yorumi it's more covering their bases, i seen the live pre order on a reaction live stream. some preordered with seconds later told there's had be canceled at x place and the scrambling to find a new one to pre order at.
@Arkabed oh man i can't wait to see monster hunter on it, everyone was like why didn't they show it on switch reveal. well a new mh is slated to come out for the 3ds that would be dumb cause people in japan might just wait if that happened.
@impurekind um mario kart 8 deluxe is like the only one that's in that line at all...??
(edit i guess zelda botw too, but ps4 launched with many ports from the ps3 too tomb raider the last of us are one i recall)
@nhSnork there could be more on the way too, i think they are slowly announcing them to get them have the moment in the spotlight. rather than release huge list and get the, no one cares look at zelda and mario!
@JamesR and less the sony oh this games totally coming out for the ps3.... oh now it's on the ps4 not coming to the ps3 sorry (the last guardian) could be same thing for some promises they've already made for the ps4 also.
@impurekind i bought the ps4 for square enix over sony games just so know, i'm not alone seen many say they got the ps3 thinking kh3 would be there too.
@flightsaber why it won't have the prettiest versions, the games could be coming to the system. look at dq heroes 1/2 a ps4 game game. and the sales point is taking the console on the go, like sony tried and failed to do 2 times before. because the psp wasn't a ps2, nor the vita a ps3. but seeing the games on switch says hey these was on the wii u and now it's portable is what sony failed to do they watered down versions.
@PotatoTheG yeah i get what you mean, just adding that into the rest of the news would be more confusion though, why i think there waiting on the ui/eshop stuff and online details.
@Romeo-75 odds are it will it's likely them being nice wording it that way, them companies might not have decided yet. but if the switch sells big, they will be there real damn fast.
@Grumblevolcano i feel that's their plan to keep people talking, keep giving out new info leading up the release, it's the only reason i can think of why they won't show much about the UI/E-shop too. they keep hinting the vc stuff from the wii u may carry over too.
@Ogbert i'm looking at super bomberman R and other games, also sniper clips looks crazy fun to play. i really like the look of the new ip arms. but zelda and mario will be the big ones to sell systems, mario kart will likely help there too especially to them who missed the wii u mk8 game. also if pokemon is shown off game over that's when this things will fly off shelves, and add in mh for japan even if it's not the best looking one, odds are japan will buy it on the switch to ps4 because consoles are not seling great in japan still.
@marko i think nintendo have made the best system to do the upgradeable model if you ask me. you will have the joycons the dock and so on already, they could push out a cheaper base unit to upgrade the graphics easily and keep it price down quite a bit.
@Nintendian i'm telling you they will likely be on switch from now on than the wii u, see the indie devs themselves say coming to the switch no wii u listed recently.

Re: Kimishima on the Role of the 3DS After the Switch Launch
@parallaxscroll or switch with no dock for cheaper, after all they are selling the dock separately too.
Re: Kimishima on the Role of the 3DS After the Switch Launch
@Decapre for about a year or 2 then it'll be dropped look at the games, pokemon has struggled to run on it even.
Re: Kimishima on the Role of the 3DS After the Switch Launch
because they've said the same lines more than once in the past aka, if the switch sells well they will drop it real damn fast!

Re: Poll: A Week On, How Do You Feel About the Nintendo Switch?
@Jessica286 you see the same when pokemon sells well it's, oh it's the pokemon company... something bad happens it's Nintendo!
Re: Poll: A Week On, How Do You Feel About the Nintendo Switch?

Re: Poll: A Week On, How Do You Feel About the Nintendo Switch?

Re: Poll: A Week On, How Do You Feel About the Nintendo Switch?
@Cyberbotv2 Um no they wouldn't not even the hardcore sony fans liked the 600 ps3 remember how hard that tanked at launch?
Re: Poll: A Week On, How Do You Feel About the Nintendo Switch?
@Kanbei 3ds has a good amount of games to play, but they will comprised games like hyrule warriors legends in the future most likely.
Re: Poll: A Week On, How Do You Feel About the Nintendo Switch?
@Kizashi if as game was packed in it would be more expensive than it is now though
Re: Poll: A Week On, How Do You Feel About the Nintendo Switch?

Re: Poll: A Week On, How Do You Feel About the Nintendo Switch?
@Yorumi i'd say keep checking you might get lucky nintnedo are claiming they will have enough to go around of cause if this blows up they will not have enough.
Re: Poll: A Week On, How Do You Feel About the Nintendo Switch?

Re: Poll: A Week On, How Do You Feel About the Nintendo Switch?
@RenanKJ If it wasn't a portable it would flop in japan hard. that's the big key thing.
Re: Poll: A Week On, How Do You Feel About the Nintendo Switch?
@JamesR and less the sony oh this games totally coming out for the ps3.... oh now it's on the ps4 not coming to the ps3 sorry (the last guardian) could be same thing for some promises they've already made for the ps4 also.
Re: Poll: A Week On, How Do You Feel About the Nintendo Switch?
@JamesR they are honoring their words much like the twilight princess gamecube version
Re: Poll: A Week On, How Do You Feel About the Nintendo Switch?
@impurekind i bought the ps4 for square enix over sony games just so know, i'm not alone seen many say they got the ps3 thinking kh3 would be there too.

Re: Poll: A Week On, How Do You Feel About the Nintendo Switch?
@impurekind okay then, how was ps4 launch any better?
Re: Poll: A Week On, How Do You Feel About the Nintendo Switch?

Re: Poll: A Week On, How Do You Feel About the Nintendo Switch?
@Ogbert the difference is how the last pokemon ran on the 3ds and gamefreak saying they will bring pokemon to the NX/switch.
Re: Poll: A Week On, How Do You Feel About the Nintendo Switch?

@Miss_Dark splatoon 2 by any chance? your avatar and such XD
Re: Poll: A Week On, How Do You Feel About the Nintendo Switch?
@wayneyrob22 i'm very excited to see there e3 plans this year also.
Re: Poll: A Week On, How Do You Feel About the Nintendo Switch?
@Nintendian so your are trying to troll i see i won't be replying to you again i'd advise everyone one else to do the same...
Re: Poll: A Week On, How Do You Feel About the Nintendo Switch?
@Ogbert i'm looking at super bomberman R and other games, also sniper clips looks crazy fun to play. i really like the look of the new ip arms. but zelda and mario will be the big ones to sell systems, mario kart will likely help there too especially to them who missed the wii u mk8 game. also if pokemon is shown off game over that's when this things will fly off shelves, and add in mh for japan even if it's not the best looking one, odds are japan will buy it on the switch to ps4 because consoles are not seling great in japan still.
Re: Poll: A Week On, How Do You Feel About the Nintendo Switch?
@marko i think nintendo have made the best system to do the upgradeable model if you ask me. you will have the joycons the dock and so on already, they could push out a cheaper base unit to upgrade the graphics easily and keep it price down quite a bit.
Re: Poll: A Week On, How Do You Feel About the Nintendo Switch?
@Nintendian i'm telling you they will likely be on switch from now on than the wii u, see the indie devs themselves say coming to the switch no wii u listed recently.
