If the Switch wasn't coming out so soon, I would be buying this North American Turbo Duo and 5 games for $200.

Help me Dr. Mario...I've got Switch fever!

I'd guess they both have heard someone saying that someone said Metroid is being worked on.

a little piece of info that has been passed around but the kind of thing you can´t directly leak cause you really don't know where it came from or if it really means anything.

as for me.. I am a believer

Federation Force Port BALEE!

Mentioning Pilotwings makes me wonder; how would a niche sports collection game work out nowadays? Steep is the only one I can think off right now and that did terribly, but it was also not that great either.

Wow not according to every podcast I listen to. People love it.

Now that the Cemu emulator really kicked it up a notch with custom resolutions and other graphical tuning things I guess I have with what to keep me busy until Friday morning. If XenoX works well on that, I might not even need the Switch port unless it brings some QoL changes.

I also wonder if it will work with Zelda, I might need to double dip for Switch and Wii U versions just to see how it runs.

Pls Nintendo

Ocarina 3D + Majora 3D remasters in one cartridge

I am fighting the paranoid urge to not read too much into the fact that she's holding OoT Link in her hand.
(further indication of Zelda being the launch headliner title? timeline hint? I dunno.)

Come on, it's a Link amiibo because of Zelda. Who gets into teasers at such deep levels? Especially about something not announced?

I really hope to see a Pikmin 4 close to launch. Pikmin 3 is my favourite episode in the series by far and one of my favourite games on Wii U.

If they will di it, I think they have to let us play nightime too, would be great and scary.

I wouldn't say so, I think they're just gonna show off the amiibo functionality in BotW.

Yeah I was kidding with that post :) If I were to take a legitimate guess I'd think it's just a hint at Zelda launch, we already know what the Zelda Amiibo do in BotW so it's not exactly that much of a reveal.

Yes please. Wii was great.

I still say Wii U should have been Wii 2 and should have featured an improved version of the wiimote setup as the primary control method. Better motion, more buttons and 2 analog sticks.

Yeah, if they could've had a machine that used the motion+ wiimotes as the primary controls, and had up to date graphics, I would've been all over that.

I like you.

I also think a surprise nighttime survival scenario would be so fresh and exciting for the series. Pikmin has such potential to be spontaneous and scary.
 
Are we bold enough to dream of seeing Monolith Soft's Xenoblade X successor at the Switch unveiling event this week?!

The Switch logo on one of her nails... OoT Link amiibo...

Hhmm...


Are we finally getting the third Hero of Time Link game we needed to top off OOT/MM and make it a proper trilogy?

Forgot about that amiibo. Kind of want to pick one up.

Edit: and orbitalbeard with the link, now it's happening for sure.

The event was retweeted by someone of note (can't remember who) so maybe.

I think it might be too soon for the next game, but perhaps the rumored xbx port will be there at least.

Fantastic to hear about the tweet. I never played Xeno X so if it's just a Switch port that works for me

I think that's some way off yet, after all there was a five year gap between the two Xenoblade games.

Good point. I want to say someone from Monolith Soft said the next Xeno would be more character driven like blade's Shulk rather than Xenoblade X's main character. I may be remembering wrong though

WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?!??!

well I guess in a way that is a good thing if it's meant to be strictly a gaming machine, for those that want that

Yeah it's not like i'd buy a game system to play the games on it, I need another device to play BR/Netflix/etc (I have many, between PS3, PS4 and XONE). Unless you're just now entering this generation in 2017 it shouldn't even matter. You can also buy a BR player for 50 bucks these days, just seems silly.

Then again, i'm not sure if I should question someone who thinks a blu ray would fit into mobile device.

Would she actually know anything? I'm not sure what her job entails other than appearing on Nintendo Minute.

They knew about Cloud in Smash before it was announced. It doesn't really mean anything other than we already know.

- BotW on Switch
- Switch will use amiibo, obviously

Yesterday NateDrake asked what IP would piss people off the most if it was revived as a Nintendo Exclusive.

"CHRONO TRIGGER"

Imagine a Chrono Trigger, FFVI and OoT Tripple remake RPG Collection as a Switch Exclusive. People would lose their minds

I think FFVI would probably put some people on suicide watch tbh.

Unless you're just now entering this generation in 2017 it shouldn't even matter, lol. You can also buy a BR player for 50 bucks these days, just seems silly.
my first dvd player was the Ps2, my first blu ray player was the Ps3, and i was hoping my first 4K blu ray player would be the Ps4.

anyways though of course first and foremost they're supposed to be game consoles, but ever since consoles have become more than that, i always expect more than that and i don't think it's unreasonable.
I mean, netflix and other streaming services will most likely be available.
yeah I guess but it'd be nice if it also could do discs. whatever it's probably not a big deal to the masses
