Alfalfa The Roach posted:Launching with Zelda, MK8 Deluxe the following month, Splatoon 2 in the Summer, and a brand new 3D Mario hearkening back to 64 and Sunshine for the Holidays, along with ARMS, Fire Emblem Warriors, and Xenoblade 2 coming soon. And that's not even mentioning all the third party stuff like Skyrim, Disgaea 5, Bomberman, Sonic Mania (which I'm extremely happy about), new Shin Megami Tensei, Shovel Knight, Ultra Street Fighter II, and Yooka-Laylee, among other games The problem is a lot of what you stated wasn't even shown or talked about in the presentation, and a lot of good stuff was held back to show us 1, 2 Switch and their dumb haptic feedback. Rather than spend that time telling us about the new Mario Kart we got some throw away game and small clips of other games that looked decent. I'm not talking about the console itself, which I don't think has much promise, I'm just talking about the presentation.

Takoluka posted:Yeah, see, I don't understand why they're releasing good games like ARMS, Splatoon 2, and Super Bomberman R. It looks terrible. While Splatoon 2 looks great, it's not coming out at launch, and I don't think ARMS is either. It's looking like the only new games that the Switch will launch with are Zelda, Super Bomberman R, and Has-Been Heroes (that's new, right?).

I doubt Xenoblade makes 2017 in any region. Probably will get delayed until Winter of 18.

Pureauthor posted:Not to dampen your enthusiasm too much but at least 1 of those games you listed (most likely 3) will most definitely not be releasing this year. Oh I know for sure Xenoblade 2 and Fire Emblem Warriors aren't, but a lot of other games I listed most likely are

Nintendo has been "doomed" since they started making consoles. The Famicom was risky af to release outside of Japan after the videogame crash but they did just fine That said the Switch definitely needs to perform to keep Nintendo in the hardware market. I think it will.

I love Nintendo but if you're gonna spend so much time talking about 1-2 Switch you better include that gimmicky poo poo as a pack in. Looks like it could've been the Switch Sports but if it's not a pack in forget it.

Pre-ordered on Target. Hope I can get it on Amazon at some point within the next 49 days (49 DAYS!!!) and just cancel it.

I'm not in love with the thing and I ordered one too because I skipped the Wii U. And $300 is still close enough to what they're asking for a Wii U.

I think the major disconnect is that apparently looking at red flags and glaring issues that the console has is apparently immediately gas lighted as "Nintendo is DOOMED!" talk which is loving stupid.

Starhawk64 posted:Saw the Super Mario Odyssey trailer. Seeing Mario run around in a realistic city is a surreal experience. The other levels look gorgeous though. Also, lol at the hat throw. I am happy we are getting another Mario 64/Galaxy style game. Everyone plays nintendo consoles for nintendo games. so why keep making these weird unpowered consoles whose gimmick everyone ignores after a year instead of making games for other consoles and save their fans all this unpleasantness

I wonder if their business model will let then walk back paid online. I can't see people paying a monthly sub for Nintendo online and Splatoon will die without a solid base. Lol if they stumbled into their most successful new IP in ages and kill it immediately.

i bought a wii u deluxe on launch which was a huge mistake but my friends and i got a lot of fun use out of nintendoland. i also got a wii at launch and we had a good time with wii sports. i imagine the same would've happened with 1-2 switch but they're not making it a pack in so if you think this thing sells more than 20,000 copies. no one is gonna buy it. i want the switch to succeed but given how bad it seems they're botching this, i really don't think it will. by 2020 nintendo's gonna be making stuff for sony and microsoft. Asema posted:I think the major disconnect is that apparently looking at red flags and glaring issues that the console has is apparently immediately gas lighted as "Nintendo is DOOMED!" talk which is loving stupid. they...kinda are though? they haven't had a successful console launch since 2006. they can't fall back on the portable market because now the switch is the portable market. if they have another wii u launch there's no way their investors will keep letting them make consoles only to see a bunch of money be lit on fire. the switch has to succeed or the nintendo of 1986-present will be dead.

I mean I'm pissed about all the Red flags and I wanted to preorder and be excited for it but I'm probably moved firmly into "maybe 2019/2020" camp so I can get my Nintendo fix at a much cheaper price* *probably buying from a friend or craigslist because gently caress if Nintendo games ever drop in price

Lol if they stumbled into their most successful new IP in ages and kill it immediately. This is a fair concern though. Splatoon made dumb bank off of being a free online game once purchased. That said if they actually launch a good online service (lmao) it'll be fine. I will buy it anyway because Splatoon is extremely my poo poo.

I admit I don't need the joycon stuff at all but it's super interesting to me how it seems like a natural evolution of the wiimote. It's like a peek into an alternate dimension where they didnt take a six year hiatus from motion after Wii Sports Resort and Skyward Sword.
