If we get smash I want a tag team or rotation mode, give us the ability to choose a team of characters to use in stock matches.

Reggie: Nintendo will have a big E3 this year.
- Thread starter BY2K
- Start date
We don't even know if that's what happened with Splatoon 2.
I would enjoy that. Idk if anyone would agree with me but I would like an improved subspace emissary. I feel like smash 4s engine would already improve it quite a bit

^ I agree with you!
I really want a single player mode like the Subspace Emissary. It not being there really lowered my play time for Smash Wii U compared to Brawl. Not living on a college campus also did that though.

I really hope we get closer to Melee with a new Smash game. We've had 2 slower paced games already, it'd be nice to have another faster game in the series.

Definitely not an STD, as I'm a pure.
I hope so. The Switch has so much potential to bea great console. Hopefully he isn't all talk like that Phil Soencer guy, who hypes up their E3 conference year after year and end up with mediocre showings, and the highlight of their shows is fucking controllers and being able to play 360 games.
Just give me a mainline Pokémon on Switch and I'll be more than happy.

Doesn't he say something similar every year? Like I bet he said this when the Wii U released.
Show me some games.

All I need them to say is "Mario Maker is coming to Switch"
After E3 2018: "Reggie: Metroid fans, your passion is endearing. We hear ya. this is totally not damage control."

FTFY.
Anyway, not sure why it's now controversial to claim Nintendo will show new games at E3. He's not saying it'll be bigger than ever or anything...

I really want to see what Retro is working on and Bayonetta 3 would be awesome.

Almost nothing Reggie says is meaningful. Nintendo should have a big E3 this year, though. Mario Odyssey and Pokemon Stars (assuming the rumors are true) would be enough. We'll also see a couple unannounced games like a SSB port or Pikmin. And I'd be surprised if we didn't see what Retro is working on in video form even though it's almost certainly a fall 2018 title. Add Virtual Console news and almost anything fans have been asking for and that's a pretty massive E3 for them.

Well i hope so because the Switch lineup doesn't look too hot right now

Whatever the 3DS focus is it will simply be whatever is in either the development or translation pipeline. For Japan, there probably isn't much to release after DQ11. Rest of the world takes a bit of time for translation, so you guys maybe getting 3DS game for a bit longer.
No way would 2 games one of which being a port would be enough.
Well, their fucking loss then. I won't buy another 3DS game. The sooner this console dies, the better. Switch all the way baby.

What I would love to see:
Metroid Prime
Pokemon (for sales)
The Last Story 2
Pandora's Tower 2
Xenoblade 2
Enternal Darkness Remake
Pikmin 3 Switch Port
Luigi's Mansion
All I want from the 3DS is for SquareEnix to finally give us FFV remake.
I also hope Reto is creating a new IP, if they're not working on Metroid. All the talent they've acquired has been wasted on Diddy games.

Eurogamer has a pretty outstanding track record when it comes to Nintendo and Switch news though.

Exciting. NIntendo normally avoids trying to drum up hype for E3 because they worry they won't be able to meet expectations. So the fact the Reggie has come out and says this.... it's a big deal. They normally do not talk up E3.

Bring it on.
More switch games is great because I actually want one but couldn't justify it just for Zelda.
More 3DS games is great because I'd play them too.
Even if all Nintendo is doing is hyping up localizations for 3DS

Pretty sure Reggie does this every year lol. It's standard PR speak.

I always find this statement odd because Zelda/Mario Kart/Splatoon 2/ARMS/Mario Odyssey/Xenoblade 2 looks like a pretty solid opening 10 months to me. Honestly, add in any 1 or 2 games we commonly discuss (Smash, Mario Maker, Metroid, Pokemon, Animal Crossing, etc.) And that's the best opening year ever haha

While I'm still pretty confident we're getting Smash at some point... since they already revealed things like No More Heroes 3, FE Switch, and Shine Megami Tensai with barely anything why would they hold back Smash from the initial release if it presumably had more to show? Maybe to make it seem like fewer ports were coming or save the announcement, but Smash is huge. Hell, I bet if they just showed the Smash logo and said '58 characters... and counting' and people would have exploded.
I wonder a little if it started as a deluxe port but at some point they decided to make it more significant.

Day after E3 2020: It's OK guys, Nintendo is just waiting to reveal Metroid with the Super Switch console reveal next year. I'm telling you!

Just add a picture of a gamecube controller attached to the Switch and then drop the mic Reggie
Honestly if this is all in the pipeline for the next couple of years than I am set!

Why is Eurogamer getting no benefit of the doubt when they've called so much on the Switch?? All that's left is the Pokémon Stars rumor and GC VC rumor.

Yeah I completely agree. The Switch 2017 lineup is insane from a first party perspective.
I guess the lack of third party titles filling out the gaps is the major issue.
Laura Kate Dale even confirmed that a Pokemon Stars is coming out. She wasn't sure it was a 3DS or Switch. My money is on a Switch version. Makes sense. I hope either a new Metroid, Advance Wars, Star Tropics or another vague nintendo ip gets resurrected soon. Oh and a new Golden Sun would be awesome too

Keep your expectations really low. With Nintendo you never know if they mean "there's a lot of great content coming to switch... here's our lineup for the next 4 months" and skip all potential 2018 hype games. They are so very weird like that.
I personally just wish to see some surprising 3rd party support. I don't expect anything 2018 and beyond 1st party wise.

Nintendo, I have somewhat higher expectations this year! Don't disappoint me with the Switch. :3
So why did GF, a Dev who are well know for taking the "easy" option most of the time in terms of re-using assets and animations etc, go to all the trouble of making loads of HD models for Pokemon Sun and Moon, sticking them in the game files and then not using them?
Why did they bother doing loads of animations for Pokemon walking beside the player char which never got used?
I really feel like there is just too much smoke now for Stars to not come to Switch. I'm guessing it will be on 3DS too but I cannot see them not getting it on Switch. Nintendo will have been pressuring them HARD to get it done and don't forget, they own like a third of Pokemon.
You mention them releasing a DS only Pokemon game after the 3DS came out, however I would argue this is very different. The reason for this is that DS games could run on the 3DS. People who bought a 3DS could still play Black and White 2 on their new system. Sure, it didn't take advantage of the increased power but it was still playable.
I'm fairly sure this is what we will see with Stars - it will launch on both but won't really be much of a showcase for what Switch can really do.
Nintendo will NOT want to wait till late 2018 / 2019 for a mainline Pokemon on Switch. It's the biggest gun they have.
As others have also said, EG have a great track record with Switch rumours - they've not got one wrong yet and seem extremely sure of their sources. Given that Fire emblem Warriors is coming out on both sets of hardware it is not entirely unreasonable to suppose that Stars could do the same. If they've already got lots of HD models etc (which they clearly do) then it shouldn't be that much of a big deal to port it across. Especially if EG is to be believed when they stated that it was "well into development" in late 2016 and had been being developed "in parallel" to Sun and Moon for a while. If that is true, then give an extra year from November 2016 - November 2017 then I don't think it's unreasonable to expect it on Switch by the end of this year.

More like believe it when it's on store shelves. I.e. that Direct Show they've had after WiiU launch showed a really promising lineup for once. Until it turned out that all the announced games were far from ready and actually spread over WiiU's entire measly life.
