Finster Dexter posted:Did the last Zelda sell over 2m? Skyward Sword and A Link Between Worlds sold 3.5 and 2.5 million copies by the end of their second year, respectively. Reportedly Skyward Sword has hit the 4 million mark since then.

Zaphod42 posted:Looks like the Mario Kart 8 engine to me. That game's graphics are still underappreciated. Its one of the best looking games of this gen. I was going to say it looked very similar to Super Mario 3D World, but you're right. The shader work here bears a much bigger resemblance to Mario Kart 8.

Minidust posted:"There's also the Joy Grip accessory that players can pick up..." The language implies it's a separate purchase, but I may just be jumping to conclusions. The article doesn't cite a source other than the video and Nintendo's press release, so I think it might be an unintentionally poor choice of words on their part. Utnayan posted:You will love the new Metroid. I hope I will!

teagone posted:Hmm, so games are going to be on those mini cartridges? I won't be downloading them to a microSD card? Is the SD card just going to be used for saves then? If you buy games through digital download you can store them on the internal HDD or on MicroSD.

A bunch of European retailers are listing the Switch at €330. I already thought 300 was steep, but anything over that is definitely too rich for my blood. Gonna have to wait until a price drop or sale comes up this time around.

Sakurazuka posted:Is there a confirmed launch title list yet or is Zelda just the only one we know of? There's no definitive list of launch games yet, but Breath of the Wild; 1, 2 Switch; Super Bomberman R, and Just Dance appear to be the only notable launch games.

Mulva posted:Off the top of your head name the best launch titles of the PS4 and Xbone. I won't make you go back any further than that. As much as 6-ish games is really paltry for a launch line-up, Zelda and Bomberman alone make it better than any launch line-up in recent memory IMO. I can't remember the last time a console launched with two games that I genuinely thought were worth buying right out the gate. Xbox 360 with Condemned and PGR3 is a contender, but even that is kind of a stretch. That's all subjective, though.

well why not posted:We kinda got spoiled with Wii Sports, that was a pretty big game for free. Amazing move by Nintendo, I wish they'd keep it going like that. Nintendoland was a pack-in too, right? Not quite the same level of global appeal as Wii Sports, but still a pretty good general audience game.

Dr. VooDoo posted:I think ARMS is gonna turn out to be really fun Splatoon got the same "what the hell is this weird poo poo" when it was first shown too. Hoping the TreeHouse shows more of it today cause I'm getting some big Punch Out vibes from it Arms looks really cool. It's like a combination of Punch-Out and Virtual-On I never knew I wanted. I hope it's not too sparse on content, though. The trailer didn't show much in that regard.

Quest For Glory II posted:they are probably gunshy about a pack-in after Nintendoland (which honestly was pretty good) flopped so miserably that they had to remove it from the eShop entirely The obvious solution would be to make it a universal pack-in and not print any physical copies until different pack-ins are available and the game has proven to be successful enough to warrant it.

Utnayan posted:And now this just in. The Wii U version of Zelda runs better than the Switch version. (Multiple hands on reports from various sites) Wouldn't this be based on what the hosts remember seeing of the Wii U versions many months ago? Not exactly a clear-cut case if so.

XyrlocShammypants posted:Zelda will be a good story but the game doesn't look that good. Right now it's a stutter fiesta (combat, panning shots) and of course graphically it's ancient. I wouldn't really call BOTW epic as much as I would call the franchise beloved, because any other game that looks like that wouldn't receive a warm reception Games that don't have top-of-the-line visuals get positive receptions all the time.
