this would be fine as a budget title but full price? eeeeeeh

 

[Laevateinn]

Beard guy is terrible at this game.

 

[Sora the Cat]

Wait so.. you could just put the joy-con in the same position and it would work right? No need to move your body at all

 

[Wishmaster92]

eat another senzu bean

 

[Fidelis Hodie]

The fact that he keeps losing 😂 love it

 

[NipplesAndToes23]

Damn, this dude ain't shit.

 

[SomewhatGroovy]

POSE!

Oh god hahaha

 

[Mory Dunz]

ARMS is interesting.

It seems like a straight up fighter. (Maybe meant to try to be competitive? It does have tradititonal controls option)

I'm sure other people noticed that there's like no party elements so far.
Smash Bros has items, hazards, other junk.
Mario Kart has the same.

But what they showed for this game was straight fighting. I was expecting some kind of "wacky" thing in the treehouse, or a mode but nope. Just fighting techniques were shown.

Thoughts...?

serious question: Have we seen anything yet that couldn't be on the WiiU? I do get that this is a hybrid where the WiiU wasn't and so that is an upgrade.

I assume Mario Kart would've been 1080p on Wii U if it could.... -_-

 

[uncle_koploski]

Only good for parties. Should be bundled with the switch.

I'm not buying this for $50.

 

[Spukc]

is this game a pack in like wii sports?

 

[Tangeroo]

Heh.

Whelp, I'm sold.

 

[Kintaco]

This dude can't win a single round. lmfao

And they claimed he was the 1-2-Switch Master. :lol

Whelp, I'm sold.

Switch redeemed!

 

[KHlover]

I'd buy for $5. Not a single cent more.

 

[nubbe]

I want to fast forward this

 

[Immaculate]

arent they selling this game for $50 lmao

 

[wild wild rice]

The sessions to come up with ideas for the game during development must have been a blast.

 

[BitStyle]

They're presenting it well but I'm mostly laughing at Nintendo trying to sell it for the price they are. Especially considering that it's one of the three launch titles. Just fuck off lmao.

Seriously. What about this looks like a $50 game?

 

[Sendou]

Wait so.. you could just put the joy-con in the same position and it would work right? No need to move your body at all

Where's the fun in that?

 

[13ruce]

Lmao

 

[ThanksVision]

Wait so.. you could just put the joy-con in the same position and it would work right? No need to move your body at all

i'm fairly certain it tracks the entire movement of the pose segment

 

[TheAbsolution]

Lol he can't win. Hilarious.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

not sure what to think of this game

 

[DecoReturns]

So how accurate is the Joy cons?

My phone won't load the stream anymore.

 

[Soroc]

This Pose Copy game is... not good. Its clear the game is only looking at the force and the location of the Joycon. In other words, you dont copy the body movement, you copy the Joycon movement. Which is easy to fake.

Thats what I was thinking, this would make a good kinect or ps move game with camera capture

 

[zroid]

Do we have any idea how many mini-games there are?

This Samurai Training one is the first game they've shown that looks mildly interesting imo

 

[dallow_bg]

Will the Japanese version also have these american actors for the videos?

 

[Genio88]

Do we know if is from the Rhythm Heaven team? It looks a bit like their style, perhaps they had 4 people doing it while working on something bigger

 

[oti]

ok, this mini game is great
I also like the quick draw one

 

[Axass]

50 bucks.

Nintendo is crazy.

 

[Iriscomeback]

This is starting to look more and more like a tech demo

 

[Boy Wander]

Do you need one or two sets of joycons to play this?

 

[Yado]

The Switch really needs a pack in game to help the price.

It seems like they want to hit $350 mark at any cost. Worked well for the Wii U.

 

[Wolfgunblood Garopa]

Is it just me, or do I hate this a lot.

 

[WordAssassin]

I usually really like Nintendo's minigame demo games but this just... sucks. I do not see myself buying this game, ever.

Maybe it's the presentation? Like what if they had given it a Wario Ware aesthetic? It just seems really really lame. Wii Sports and NintendoLand were MUCH better at showing off the new controllers and gameplay ideas.

 

[Peltz]

Do you need one or two sets of joycons to play this?

1 set.

 

[MegaPanda]

Beard guy has no honor

 

[SinCityAssassin]

Do you need one or two sets of joycons to play this?

You just need the one set.

 

[Sora the Cat]

i'm fairly certain it tracks the entire movement of the pose segment

Oh, so it tracks the whole movement of the joy-con from the default start point to the end. Yes, that makes sense. So the important part isn't the final pose but how you get to it.

 

[KojiKnight]

This is starting to look more and more like a tech demo

I mean, it is. So was wii sports and Nintendo land.

 

[Fidelis Hodie]

Lmao with the secret keep him talking strats.

This game is going to be hilarious to stream at the least if nothing else.

 

[KScorp]

Do you need one or two sets of joycons to play this?

Just the one pair that comes with the switch.

 

[OricWindstar]

So how accurate is the Joy cons?

My phone won't load the stream anymore.

Between this and Arms, they're definitely seem a big step up from Wii remotes.

 

[deleted]

We've already got a Fire Emblem Direct incoming, I'd be amazed if we didn't get at least one more before launch. Probably more.

One big one, or several small.

They have to do one pretty much weekly to catch up on the information vacuum they created...

With the Wii U they didn't have a clear message, this time that part is clear, but they didn't even manage to communicate the launch line up. There are games circulating in the air that should clearly be coming, but for some reason are not yet announced.

Everyone seems confused on what is there on launch, what is in development and how the system and it's services actually work. And that is completely unnecessary.

 

[zroid]

ARMS is interesting.

It seems like a straight up fighter

Treehouse sold me on ARMS. When it's played well like JC did it looks very impressive.

 

[Iriscomeback]

50 bucks.

Nintendo is crazy.

50?!

Holy crap

 

[see5harp]

This sword thing looks like hot garbage.

 

[Spiral Insanity]

Maybe it's the presentation? Like what if they had given it a Wario Ware aesthetic? It just seems really really lame. Wii Sports and NintendoLand were MUCH better at showing off the new controllers and gameplay ideas.

I think they wanted this to be the next Wii Sports, and make it super relatable to non-gamers.

 

[moltonasty]

I can't comprehend how this is worth $50 lol

 

[ThanksVision]

air table tennis is laughably dumb

 

[Sendou]

I was a huge fan of Nintendo Land and even that was a pack-in. This is so far away from Nintendo Land. Everything about it just seems so cheap. Could be fun for sure but they really need to learn they can't get away with quite everything.
