@BacklogBlues That seems about right. Most likely next generation. I feel the earliest it'll be released is around the end of Switchs life span, in that awkward year or two that next generation and the switch co-exist. Think BotW.
Instead of holding my breath, waiting for it's older IPs to make come backs, I'd love to see new IPs. At least one that will blow away it's rivals games. I want a monster hit that will have us all salivating for months. I can wait on all the remakes and all that. Just a new IP please.
@NEStalgia that's a normal TV budget. Streaming services might make a good amount of money but they still don't have the full budget of normal TV companies.
Star Trek Discovery is an exception as CBS thinks we have short attention spans and a short season is all we can handle. If they weren't trying to compete with all the other online services, they would make more money with a 22 episode season. (Ok, so that's just my opinion on CBS)
I like the Black Mirror show regardless though. Short stories are fine to me.
Special full remake HD collection of all Metroid Prime games including Prime 4 and a 2' (0.61m) tall statue of Samus from the prime series. MSRP $199.99
@RickD the sentence he received was in part due to his being a repeat offender. Florida law punishes those who continue to make the same mistakes. If you don't learn your lesson the first couple times, you will get a harsher sentence.
I'm pretty sure that the people behind this decision were smoking meth or something. Why would anyone pay to play against the CPU? I would rather spend the $10 on a good indie that's on sale. It's so gracious of Nintendo to listen to the "community". sarcasm
Does anyone remember when buying MKx then paying to unlock characters that were already on the disc? Now they want $40 for a handful of content. I probably won't be returning to the franchise anytime soon.
@Nicolai that's my though as well. It's probably just a SBS image. Would be kind of lame if that is the case though. I'll wait on real players to buy and try first. Won't get my hopes up yet
@Donutman I hear you but TBH, it is a bit of a survival game. Also if you are only having one encounter in a match, try following other players out of the bus. The point is to be the last one standing not highest kills.
For the price of the definitive collection, I could make concrete statues of them, much taller with good detail from a local artist. Forget that over priced piece of plastic
Speaking of horror games, I'd like to see the Silent Hill games remastered for the Switch. Resident Eve is a nice addition to my Switch collection ofcourse but SH is better in my opinion
@patbacknitro18 I'd be satisfied if they would just release more titles each month, like 6 or so, not including the "SP" version of games. Those really take the fun out the OG gameplay.
I'd hate to see them go the way of Sega interms of only publishing games. Although Its their business and they always do whatever the f they want to anyway.
Kinda like when they allowed video saving, then removed it for "preformance". I honestly never had preformance problem with th game before that. I accept that playing some games on the switch are going to lack certain features.
First party games are physical purchases for me. I rarely get those titles in digital format. Indie games on the other hand, and most third party AAA games( depending on the file size) are digital only.
@bluesdance I doubt folks will just stop playing, well Atleast not immediately. I'm sure you'll get another year or two of support for the game servers. Isn't it Nintendo's best new IP?
Rather than read all the hate and disappointment in the comments above, I will just say this: I paid for the sub in hopes that it will help Nintendo bring a more robust service to the fans.
It's early investing in a company I still believe in.

Re: Ubisoft Happy To Be "The Last Game On Wii" With Just Dance 2020
"...Nintendo was well and truly focused on the Wii U - which isn't getting Just Dance 2020, you'll notice."
No need anyway. After all, the Wii U was backward compatible. Hell we could even get it to play GCgames (iso anyway)

Re: Fan Creates Homemade Switch Mini Console, Beating Nintendo To The Punch
Nintendo already laid those rumors to rest. Besides, hd rumble was a selling point for the switch. Losing that feature might be counter productive.

Re: Nintendo Adds Three New Games To The Switch Online NES Library This Month
@MotionMan could be the license issues with those third party games. Nintendo may not want to pay up.
Re: Did Gearbox Software Just Share An Image Of Borderlands 2 For Nintendo Switch?
I wouldn't mind a whole series port including the mobile game. I enjoyed them all enough I'd pay for them again.
Re: This Portable Joy-Con Charger Doubles Up As A Controller, And It Charges Your Switch Too
Still not paying $50 for that thing. Maybe if it's dropped to around 29.99

@Ooccoo_Jr while I'd agree, seems that stock holders don't agree with you. Hence why stock prices fell after the announcement

Re: Feature: Our 15 Most Anticipated Nintendo Switch Games of 2019
I would easily pay $100 for Prime 1-4 as a package deal. Too bad Nintendo probably wouldn't do such a thing. At least not this early on.

Re: Reminder: Three New NES Games Have Launched On Switch Today, Plus Another Bonus SP Version
SP versions kind of ruin the game, I'm. They were meant to be tough. I suppose the younger crowd would like it though.
