@Moshugan it feels like we're getting....conned into this? Huh?huh?

This kinda proves some of those rumors right. If Nvidia is still making these things their way, it could very well be that this is were their new chips went. Nintendo probably convinced them to heavily modify the x1 and in this new shield lies the x2.

I must say it's a little messed up to do that(reveal the new shield). Specially when the switch isn't even out yet but maybe Nvidia is double thinking just how popular the switch will be.

Ha!!! Zelda always being delayed even way back when,lol.

@diwdiws I thought it was DS3 and trilogy might be considered based on sales.

@SLIGEACH_EIRE
I totally agree

I don't know too much about the tech talk but these guys make it seem as if it will be really weak. I know it doesn't make sense for companies to talk down a partner that would , hopefully, be lucrative. This report though seems to be calling all these "excited" third parties full of it. With new games coming out needing power which the switch apparently lacks, why be excited? Unless that is excitement for releasing crappy ports of 360/ps3 ports. That pretty much dooms third party support.

Personally I don't care how good a game was I'm not paying sixty bucks for any game that is no longer that price on another console. If third parties bring out all those old games at 20 bucks a pop they will do well. I just really hope they don't expect us to buy old games at new prices. Like I said I'm not big on the technological language used here, so I'm not sure just how bad this is. Honestly though knowing Nintendo I wouldn't be surprised if we are getting a really undempowered system. "Now you're playing with power".....yeah underpowered, power. Oh well....

That's terrible it's only running at one FPS. I knew the Wii U couldn't handle this game, it's totes cancelled😉😂😂.

@JLPick
I entirely agree. I've given this some thought in the last years and you are correct. I think most Wii games look crappy because they are meant to be played on old school CRT TV. If played on said TVs they don't look too bad, once brought to HDTVs they look horrendous. I tried playing twilight princess on the Wii u before the HD version and it was pretty horrendous. So much so that I really couldn't play it. I remember thinking how gorgeous it was way back when. As far as games being rushed, I think this could be the first time Nintendo can be found guilty of this.

@JLPick
I'll give you the GameCube and Wii but the Wii U was much better. I know you said not much. But Nintendo even had trouble with the added horsepower as they weren't used to it. Or at least that was their excuse.

@LeRaposa
I think it's up to develovers to choose their exclusivity. It could be that it's not affordable to develop for all systems, do you not think so?

I hope these graphics are doable on the switch. It seems these graphics are the target, but not running on switch yet. If they get those results I'll be more than happy. Also if the switch could pull this off we might have a very small or no gap in power differences to other consoles.

Not "better than mama" 😟

That's pretty sad. I wonder how this came about.

@MadameSpuki I've found them pretty much everywhere. You should still try and grab them now, just in case.

@OorWullie
You have to realize nintendo is hoping for Mario fever because of Mario run. So I'm willing to bet all these day one Mario games are meant to attract all these Mario Run users to the switch.

@JaxonH
I didn't even know there was 100 games on the Wii U. 😂😂😂😂
Seriously though we got close to zero multiplatform games on wii u. Most that we got were close to launch, and they were pretty lacking ports. I know during the wii, we got lots of M rated games. Most weren't bought at all.

@jimi
We get accussed of doing the same. Just with older games.

@Tsurii I take it more as a child friendly crowd. Which is the way we as nintendo fans or "audience" are perceived. It's an image neither nintendo nor us it's fans have been able to shake off.

@DragonEleven
I certainly hope not. We shouldn't be getting these old tired games at launch. The only exception should be Skyrim. The reason being that we have never received any games from Bethesda. This would be an ideal time to prove any game will sell on a Nintendo console.

I really dislike the perception of "Nintendo audience". If the higher ups think this is what we like, we can kiss third parties goodbye. Why? You may ask. Simple, we won't buy enough of these games to warrant them making anymore games. I'm not beyond playing ANY game if it's good. Sadly Mario constantly outshines any and all platformers, making other cartoony platformers almost irrelevant.I'm purely talking about platformers released on a Nintendo console. Not to mention plenty of the Nintendo crowd want something more than E-rated games. So if all we get is this we will not buy enough leading to no mas third party support. I've bought most games worth my money regardless of publisher or rating, but if we as a "Nintendo audience" can't change the perception of "us" only buying kiddie games we are in for a bad ride......again.

@NintyFan

"There’s been times when inconvenient circumstances made me wish I could play my Wii U GamePad outside of my room, but I couldn’t." That right there kills me and I think partially killed the wii U as well. I think that we all expected a little more freedom then the Wii U actually afforded us. The range is just sad.

@SetupDisk
Yeah I must say I saw no slow down on YouTube version either

@KiWiiU_Freek I agree with you. Way back when people thought of slowdown as proof that the game they were playing was pushing the hardware they were playing it on. When did we become this jaded? I'm not saying it's ok, but at this point I don't think there is much to be done about it. I think they are going to release on wii u because they really, really have to, problems be damned. If the switch version is the same, then it's time for concern. They bit off more them they could chew on the wii u, but we've known that since the first delay.

There is a chance they might release texture packs like on xenoblade to alleviate such problems.

I'd really like to know if links tablet will be replacing all items found? We've seen old items be turned into just regulary found, breakable weapons(deku leaf, fire rod ). Maybe items they always want you to have access to will be programed to the sheika slate?

I can swear I've read on multiple locations and occasions the verification of dungeons. They are supposed to be ginormous.

@hieveryone ha!!! New.

@WilliamCalley he should have been.

There is a chance he could just be accepting an award. Who knows. Personally I'm tired of his crap. He's lied to our faces on a bunch of occasions. Not to mention he was the president of NOA while the wii u floundered. I'm sure he had to have had the power to bring in more advertising for the system from the get go, yet he did nothing. I don't hate the guy but we really need a new face for NOA.

@ollyander I don't want a six month old stale port. If EA has any success on the switch they would do well to start releasing games on the same day as other consoles. They can't expect good sale numbers of games that have been out elsewhere for 6 plus months. It's just dumb business. Obviously some of us that only own Nintendo hardware will pick it up. But like the wii U proved there isnt enough of us. They need to have an option for the switch version on day one. And Nintendo needs standard voice chat on their online games or those switch online multiplat games will get no love.

This is what the wii u needed. Nintendo got too cocky and figured it would sell on the wii brand alone. There was no demo kiosk prior to launch. Hopefully nintendo will actually advertise this sucker.

@samuelvictor Walmart has most of the new ones for 5 bucks a pop. 12 for the playsets. Toy R Us usually has some decent sales on them. Like buy one get three free.

@RadioShadow
I think that exact thing is what started pushing third parties away. When the wii u exclusive got turned into a multiplatform game BEFORE IT EVEN RELEASED. We'll see what happens this time. Hopefully not the same thing.

@MrHero Agreed.

I'm willing to bet we'll see little to nothing new. Maybe a new item or ability but not much else.

Have you seen John Connor?

It's pretty awesome that they held out on releasing it until now that the wii u is dead.

@Captain_Gonru is there a new where's Waldo I don't know of

Dang it. Ignorance is bliss and I was so blissful until now.

@Equinox
I'm in a bad state right now but I've been thinking of this. As soon as I get back on my feet I'm buying me a spare.

You guys are hilarious putting a 4k TV under nintendo deals. Nothing that has to do with nintendo is capable of fully taking advantage of 4k. That's pretty funny.

@rjejr I completely agree. I've just always been of the state of mind that minions were kind of rabbit rip offs. Much more popular ones mind you but the personalities and even sound effects are ridiculously similar.

@rjejr I see them as the precursor to the oh so popular minions. They sound alike and are both quite eccentric.

I honestly hope this isn't ubis big gun. It won't attract many specially if it's not that great. I don't see too many adults being comfortable enough to play this on the go. Specially with all the annoying noises they make. If this is prepare for underwhelming sales and ubi abandoning the switch due to these sales.

I can see what they are doing. They are switching,sorry, their strategy. Last time they tried an adult game at launch (Zombi U). This time they're trying a kid friendly approach. Hope the quality is there, I will support it if it is.

@neufel I doubt it. For them it's probably akin to giving out a copy of the game for free. I can most definitely see the benefits but it's something I personally highly doubt they would......ever. They could do this with all their games now but they dont.

I think with this alone we should get a decent install base. Maybe not a ridiculously large one but a big enough one to get third parties to risk it.

Is this the one that got released a while ago then retracted?

@IceClimbers
Considering their comments showing interest in the then called NX I think plenty were hopeful for a port. But alas they are full of it.

@MitchVogel
Straight bold face liars.

I think this game is too old to be relevant and beneficial for the switch. I think we need third party games that are either new releases or no older than a few weeks. We don't want the same situation as the wii u. Where we were getting year old ports at full price when they were already 20 bucks or cheaper on other systems. It just won't help the switchs appeal, except to us who are already buying it. I really don't see too many people waiting skipping a release for the Xbox or ps4 in order to play it on the switch.
