You guys were played it is a marketing stunt. You guys were playing checkers while they were playing 4d Chess. Free advertising for all and no breaking of the embargo.

Seriously starting to get over this. The reveal is happening IN DECEMBER. Feel bad for all the people that worked on this that have to get their work shared early in such LQ form.

Eh, not sure it's so bad tbh. Since we have no game for switch announced this will be in the spotlight a bit more and people will look forward to the reveal.

It's even possible that it's leaked on purpose, lol

Stay tuned, we are going to make some announcement soon... #theadventuregoeson

Seems like it was close to announcement anyway? Maybe her source works in the departement that manages the trailers.

Cool find. What did nicowav say about the Switch? I remember people not trusting something he said recently but he would know about the Switch since his team is making a game on it, right?
 
ok. gonna ignore whether this is either a marketing stunt or a legit leak, but i'm really surprised the studio is planning to reveal it this month. I wonder they got greenlight from Nintendo to go ahead and reveal it lol

Looks like a purposefully leak now from Any Arts Productions to LKD for some viral marketing as a big new Switch title - which is all good and well. Curious to see what the game looks like.

It Laura has the trailer and is leaking images, why not just leak screen caps from the 1080p trailer she has rather than stream it on a microwave and take a picture of it running on a CRT TV with her Nokia.

Anyway, as good as this looks, if it launches same time as Zelda, it will bomb.

Spill the beans or wait for the damn reveal. This kind of teasing seems like a deliberate advertising "leak".

I really don't understand what the issue is. Why get upset?

Put yourself in their shoes.

Developers don't want leak their games. Imagine a indie developer/company working on this game for 1 year and it doesn't can to announce it first for themselves.
Now someone has leaked it 1 month/week before you can announce it.
 
If Nico is being so blatant and has been working on the system then we have Laura now accidentally getting into their marketing plans with a planned leak.

It might make sense for Nintendo to start looking at Nico for the source of any leaks she receives.

is this going to be an e.m.o.t.i.o.n walking simulation with sad violin and piano and a message of childhood innocence or something

Yeah. It feels like Nico is leaking things to her or atleast knows who's doing it lol

Looks like the UE4 Kite demo, doesn't it?

Nice, an extended version of the UE4 Kite demo

Looks like Kite tbh. Maybe Epic made a small game out of it for the Switch?

Lighting/grass look really insane even from these pics if those are gameplay graphics

My first thought as well.

Considering people keep thinking it's the UE4 kite demo there's a high chance it's running on UE4 which doesn't run on the Wii U

Mystery game for Switch:

You didn't know about that nicowaw tweet? Saw it while ago.

But neat if this is their upcoming game. Laura is doing marketing now, it seems...

And it would give some evidence that nicowaw actually knows stuff about Switch, if they are making a game for it...

That's not what I'm really arguing. I hate leaks in general, and love official unveilings because it's in the light that the company wants it to be. Spoiler free as well. Same reason why I try not to get on here around e3 time. Big or small, I'd rather them not happen. That said, I wouldn't enter a thread about a leak/leaker/reporter and complain about it. That would be the same as me going into an Angry Joe thread knowing full well I hate everything about his videos and his opinions.

So there still is someone working on the Wii U :p

Yep. I promised that there would be a Wii U version of my game and I intend to deliver...even if it'll be well after the system is dead. It'll be a sense of accomplishment considering how much work working on the Wii U is. I hope the NS is easier to work with.
