@Nintendian also if you look at history nintnedo move on rather quickly from the last thing, be it the snes to 64, the gba to ds, gamecube to wii, Ds to 3ds, and wii to wii u. why do think this will be any different?
@Nintendian the new president of nintendo stopped all wii u games being made to focus on the switch, in an investors meeting he basicly said the wii u is dead.
@Nintendian because they will terminate the service when they move over after so long and no new games after zelda botw are coming for the wii u AT ALL
@Excalibur_120 might want to pre order just to make sure you can you know play it? don't expect news about the online service till it's close to happening, likely a direct for the online is planned. the VC i expect them to do a direct/press release before the system launches covering that and the UI. they haven't showed it for a reason, they likely plan to go in depth later.
@Nintendian um i bought a ps4 for kh3/FF, alone not any ps4 games tbh. buying this for Zelda mario, if sony lost the third party in that area they might see a huge drop off just saying you know. also look at the launch line up for the Ps4 it was bad too, all system launches are bad. but they have the killer game botw to push systems sold, not many bought a wii u but may buy a switch for zelda alone.
@nhSnork depends on the content they like, they might be not that impressed by the games there. i wouldn't get why, it's a pretty diverse set of games on psn. yes i own a ps4 too still a pretty big nintendo fan because there games are (Mostly) always fun to play.
@PotatoTheG i respect that decision but online is something they needed to do last gen. psn and live makes a lot of money in the paying for plus/live alone. waiting for the mario game i get, heck might be a good plan they do a bundle at xmas time with that and switch even. but if this blows up getting one might be expensive as all hell at this time too also.
@Jimmy_G_Buckets it's not expensive at all... look at the ps4/xbox one launch prices not today's market, to be fair factor in a second controller to them also because the switch has 2 out the box
@JamesR i think they are gonna keep talking about new things for the switch leading up to the release day like ui and VC. this keeps it fresh in people's minds and builds more hype hopefully not de-hyping it.
@carlos82 i believe it was planned to replace the 3ds but with the 3ds sales spike recently they'd be fools to stop that. but there signs that people might slowly move on, the next pokemon game is key to this, if it's on switch with a watered down 3ds game then we know they are moving forwards. also look at previous 3ds only devs making switch games, the bravely defualt team was a big indication and the SMT switch game coming in the future.
@liljmoore they are saying xenoblade 2 is this year, not sure i believe it myself but it would be a killer game to have year 1. could hint at 2 xeno games being on switch if we get one in year one too.
@PAppleyard i'm fine with pre ordering hardware, not the software part unless it has collectors edtion/ real limited edition that i like. there always a chance this could blow up and sellout for ages, then when say mario odyssey hits you, 1 have to pay scalpers or 2, wait a longer time to get one. (this could happen nintnedo isn't the best at keeping with demands)
@impurekind guessing this hd rumble and the gyroscope is the reason for their joycons being so expensive, i think hd rumble and gyro are in the pro controller too from reading.
@Anti-Matter i want to see more of the ui. i expect nintendo to be talking about the switch and revealing more as we get closer it/ could be plan to keep people talking about it.
@impurekind i think the ds was worse and all launch lineups are usually pretty bad tbh, i'm fine with zelda botw being launch because if i got more games, i'd not play them till i had my fill of the new zelda game.
@redd214 Yes Final Fantasy XV it's on xbox one too, just playstation fans seem to not realise and treat it as an exclusive. not sure why though, also Kingdom hearts 3 is set to come out on xbox one too last time i checked.
Eh that was a long time ago, it's clear they patched that up or we'd not see any square games on nintnedo. and there's been many since then with the crystal chronicles series, and even 4 kh games.on nintendo hardware.
with pokemon company making remarks about it makes me think that's the gameplan, to sell these as handhelds and consoles and then do a dsi/new 3ds upgrade kinda thing in the future.
not interested in power i'll wait to see the games, i mean older system prove it's not the power but the games that sell them. i mean if it was power... would the vita lose to the 3ds?
@Kimite the play the first few levels where clever i got hooked and had to keep playing, i was doubtful on the game till i played it and realized oh this isn't that bad for a spin off. also i like the levels feel like design went into them, not the same thing looped till you die route.
@MarcelRguez or it could be a let it come out so people have the thing then do the c/d to keep the copyright laws kept. i mean they likely knew of the other past projects and they let them all come out before shutting them down, they could axed them a lot faster like square did to the chrono trigger remake once.
@DanteSolablood star trek okay but if they went to rival the movies coming out and people watched them more than paying for the real thing think they wouldn't stop it real quick? and did star trek know of x projects or ignore them like sega do they can't say we let these on a official stream go watch where they was asked to.
@SLIGEACH_EIRE well the devs couldn't put new npc's in as the creator said no to it. so they just made the toads all have things to say and unique personalities, you can't say they didn't try it wasn't a copy paste job from sticker star they changed things up.
@BlatantlyHeroic also they wouldn't risk saying it would be coming to switch, as it could stop people from buying the remastered versions coming soon. as some might wait for the switch version with play everywhere sell.
@rushiosan even if you had that it would be like kamek would block all other attacks out but the hammer. you'd still have the same issue, it's locking the run command that screws you/battle spin
looks like it was missed in testing i guess, but reviewers missed it also. assuming many of them played long enough than the, i played 2 hours here's a review types that exist out there. (not saying on this site, but i've seen reviews like that in past)

Re: Random: Sony's Shuhei Yoshida Couldn't Resist Checking Out The Nintendo Switch

Re: Random: Sony's Shuhei Yoshida Couldn't Resist Checking Out The Nintendo Switch
@Ryu_Niiyama he's avid gamer and a pretty big nintendo fan, he had 2 wii u's btw. one for him the other his daughter if i recall.

Re: Guide: A Breakdown of Confirmed Nintendo Switch Games and Release Dates
@impurekind guessing this hd rumble and the gyroscope is the reason for their joycons being so expensive, i think hd rumble and gyro are in the pro controller too from reading.

Re: Guide: A Breakdown of Confirmed Nintendo Switch Games and Release Dates

Re: Guide: A Breakdown of Confirmed Nintendo Switch Games and Release Dates
@impurekind when i go the 64 me and many friends of mine only brought mario 64 at launch of the 64.
Re: Guide: A Breakdown of Confirmed Nintendo Switch Games and Release Dates

Re: Guide: A Breakdown of Confirmed Nintendo Switch Games and Release Dates
@impurekind i think the ds was worse and all launch lineups are usually pretty bad tbh, i'm fine with zelda botw being launch because if i got more games, i'd not play them till i had my fill of the new zelda game.

Re: Nintendo Apparently Told Square "Never Come Back" After Losing Final Fantasy VII To Sony
even though a tech demo, i think video above looks way better than ff7 looked on ps1 also imo.

Re: New Code Found in Unreal Engine 4 Further Reinforces Claims of Handheld / Docked Power Gap with Nintendo Switch
with pokemon company making remarks about it makes me think that's the gameplan, to sell these as handhelds and consoles and then do a dsi/new 3ds upgrade kinda thing in the future.
Re: New Code Found in Unreal Engine 4 Further Reinforces Claims of Handheld / Docked Power Gap with Nintendo Switch
@dkxcalibur this could be there new handheld too, they say it's not but they said the same lines for the gba once.
Re: New Code Found in Unreal Engine 4 Further Reinforces Claims of Handheld / Docked Power Gap with Nintendo Switch
@JamesCoote scorpio could fail in the same thing if it's too expensive it's premium product is all ms will say.
Re: New Code Found in Unreal Engine 4 Further Reinforces Claims of Handheld / Docked Power Gap with Nintendo Switch
not interested in power i'll wait to see the games, i mean older system prove it's not the power but the games that sell them. i mean if it was power... would the vita lose to the 3ds?
Re: Super Mario Run Passed 40 Million Downloads in Just Four Days, Focus Shifts to Improvements
@SLIGEACH_EIRE um sony and ms do the same thing we shipped x amount of this, not sold through of cause that'd make things look bad at times.
Re: Super Mario Run Passed 40 Million Downloads in Just Four Days, Focus Shifts to Improvements
@OorWullie more apple than nintendo it's there storefront, but yeah a try instead of download would had helped too.

Re: Nintendo Shuts Down Another Pokémon Fan Project
also it's competing with there games in a lot of ways as it's on pc not on there systems.
Re: Nintendo Shuts Down Another Pokémon Fan Project
@MarcelRguez or it could be a let it come out so people have the thing then do the c/d to keep the copyright laws kept. i mean they likely knew of the other past projects and they let them all come out before shutting them down, they could axed them a lot faster like square did to the chrono trigger remake once.
Re: Nintendo Shuts Down Another Pokémon Fan Project
@Dr_Lugae yeah i mean if it was put in that kinda place, odds are the legal team seen it.
Re: Nintendo Shuts Down Another Pokémon Fan Project
@DanteSolablood So if someone was to make a star trek vr of their own right now think they wouldn't shut it down, because i bet they would.
Re: Nintendo Shuts Down Another Pokémon Fan Project
@DanteSolablood star trek okay but if they went to rival the movies coming out and people watched them more than paying for the real thing think they wouldn't stop it real quick? and did star trek know of x projects or ignore them like sega do they can't say we let these on a official stream go watch where they was asked to.
Re: Metacritic's 'Best Video Games' Feature Highlights Quiet Year for Nintendo

Of cause they was mock ups, it doesn't mean these things aren't in development though.
Re: Nintendo Share Value Drops 6.5% Following Switch Reveal
@BlatantlyHeroic also they wouldn't risk saying it would be coming to switch, as it could stop people from buying the remastered versions coming soon. as some might wait for the switch version with play everywhere sell.
Re: Random: Paper Mario: Color Splash Has an Iffy Issue in its Battle System
@rushiosan even if you had that it would be like kamek would block all other attacks out but the hammer. you'd still have the same issue, it's locking the run command that screws you/battle spin
