Because the Switch would be dead on arrival if it costs 400 dollars.

Maybe you should pre-order the Switch before it becomes sold out across the Earth upon release

Your wish is granted. You can be whatever you want. For sixteen more days. Then America will be great again and you have to be normal.

That's why I'm preordering now. Starting Jan 21 we won't be allowed to spend money on Japanese things.

I'm sure they have a brand new mario game coming out in 3 months and haven't said a word about it. No company has ever shown concept footage or tech demos before, ever, and all games shown in promo videos always have come out.

They have only officially announced 1 game for Switch.

Do you think that will be the only first party title at launch?

To be fair there have been glimpses of things that didn't happen or changed. Famous spaceworld Zelda made everyone cry because Windwaker happened instead. 128 marios turned into Pikmin.

But that looked pretty drat polished and gave me instant SMSunshine vibes. So I want to believe.

On the other hand, if more titles means we get a Rabbids Mario RPG, I think I'd actually prefer fewer

I agree 100%

But, people convinced that this is a game that exists fully because we saw a clip and it looked good, therefore...are reading a lot into it.

Spaceworld Zelda and Mario 128 were both obviously tech demos and labeled as such.

Shaped like a friend

The difference was that spaceworld and mario 128 were obvious tech demos to show how strong a system was and how much poo poo it can render

Samba De Amario was just gameplay with levels built in and the like.

If it's anything like 64/sunshine then I'm superbly stoked, haven't been this excited for a game since the Gamecube era

Yeah I don't see how tech demos exist in this day and age besides vr tech like ~Milo
