GUYS.

What if they white knight chronicals 2 us and Xcx is the sequel with an enhanced fixed version of 1?

Baseless hype activated.

 

[Mik317]

These ports sound like sports game sequels.

 

[LiamR]

I'm sorry, what.

What is your definition of "completely fake"?

Where did I say "all of this is completely fake"? He put that in quotation marks and I didn't say that.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

I don't think so. Miyamoto talked in 2015 about taking 2D Mario in a new direction now that SMM is a thing. I think we'll see 2D Mario, 3D Mario, and Super Mario Maker all on Switch.

Yeah.

 

[wild wild rice]

I don't think so. Miyamoto talked in 2015 about taking 2D Mario in a new direction now that SMM is a thing. I think we'll see 2D Mario, 3D Mario, and Super Mario Maker all on Switch.

I was unaware of this statement, but I can dig it.

 

[Raet]

Could the "not a port" be a remake, not a sequel?

Super Smash Bros Melee Switch?

Lol.

 

[Spy]

Ubisoft won't work on so many exclusives and times exclusives for Switch, come on. They already have Rabbids & Mario and B&E 2. No way they have also Rayman Legends sequel done by ... the same people who work on B&E2.

I am using Rayman as an example, there were quite a few rumored Wii U ports.

 

[OrbitalBeard]

Nintendo world report podcast joke

And I'm pretty sure he always means double dash

Well then that guy's a monster

 

[BGBW]

What Mario 2d styles would SMM use to make it a sequel? There's no new Mario 2d out there yet.

Mario Bros 2, Land, Land 2 and a mix of everything.

 

[JustenP88]

It could still be an enhanced port of Smash 4 with a lot of new content and rebranded as a sequel. Sakurai did consider Smash 3DS and Wii U two separate entries so it's not entirely out of the realm of possibility.

True, we'll see.

I'm leaning towards a new Pikmin being the rumored 'sequel'.

 

[Sheroking]

Could the "not a port" be a remake, not a sequel?

Super Smash Bros Melee Switch?

They're going to remake the one Smash game they like the least?

 

[Coffinhal]

what if breath of the wild on switch is the one that's a sequel instead of a port

 

[friskykillface]

Ice climbers hype
Bring them back 😎

Metal gear solid the twin snakes for surprise GC VC launch 👀

 

[Inferno313]

True, we'll see.

I'm leaning towards a new Pikmin being the rumored 'sequel'.

But, I don't think there was ever a rumor of Pikmin 3 being ported... Was there?

 

[DryvBy]

I heard Italy Amazon had a glitch so I'm gonna be refreshing the Switch page on US Amazon all day. I just have a feeling this thing is gonna be sold out the moment it pops up.

 

[KingSnake]

I am using Rayman as an example, there were quite a few rumored Wii U ports.

What other Wii U port besides Splatoon, SSB, SMM, MK8, Zelda, Xenoblade X and Rayman was rumoured?

 

[DNAbro]

But, I don't think there was ever a rumor of Pikmin 3 being ported... Was there?

No. People are being dumb and just throwing everything out there.

 

[Dark Cloud]

But, I don't think there was ever a rumor of Pikmin 3 being ported... Was there?

Nope

 

[Neoxon]

Could the "not a port" be a remake, not a sequel?

Super Smash Bros Melee Switch?

That's said to be a Virtual Console release, not an actual port or remake.

 

[Interfectum]

I heard Italy Amazon had a glitch so I'm gonna be refreshing the Switch page on US Amazon all day. I just have a feeling this thing is gonna be sold out the moment it pops up.

lol same here man. I'm gonna pre-order before you though... game on breh.

 

[_PsiFire_]

This thread is moving too fast. All you bandwagoners.

I've been creeping in all Switch threads from the beginning...

Maybe the hype is bringing out the quiet ones?

 

[Diprosalic]

Where did I say "all of this is completely fake"? He put that in quotation marks and I didn't say that.

in your first tweet

"this 4chan leak is completely fake"

 

[Baleoce]

I'm getting a renaissance vibe from the switch so far. I hope it barrages us with games, even if it is partly ports. I don't agree with anyone that says a launch with all the expected games is overkill either. Bring it all on. Start big right out of the gates.

 

[BGBW]

These ports sound like sports game sequels.

I certainly predict there will be debates on whether said games are ports or sequels when they are revealed.

 

[Finale Fireworker]

Metal gear solid the twin snakes for surprise GC VC launch 👀

Anything but that!

 

[Oersted]

It's about as powerful as a PS3 and...Bethesda.

PS3 had terrible architecture. Switch does not. Bethesda being Bethesda is on, you guessed it, Bethesda.

 

[KingSnake]

Mario Bros 2, Land, Land 2 and a mix of everything.

That would be pretty weak for a sequel.

True, we'll see.

I'm leaning towards a new Pikmin being the rumored 'sequel'.

Pikmin was always rumoured to be a sequel, not a port.

[akidnamededdy]

It's not easy to port though.

Remember when Emily said Nintendo was having problems with bringing Mario Maker to the Switch?

Emily is wrong more often than she's right.

 

[JustenP88]

But, I don't think there was ever a rumor of Pikmin 3 being ported... Was there?

Nah, but I don't understand where this whole "which one of the ports is a sequel?" discussion is coming from... like, if it's a sequel, it's not a port, right? There's always too big of a gap between MKs and Smashes. Splatoon doesn't need one. Mario Maker doesn't need one. Hasn't Miyamoto said something about another Pikmin being in the works?

 

[Jaded Alyx]

It's about as powerful as a PS3 and...Bethesda.

It's several times more powerful than a PS3.

Anyway, no spoilers please but does the story in XCX end with a direct sequel (continuation) being viable, or is it more likely to be a new adventure in the same world?

 

[TunaLover]

Nintendo Switch |OT| We're DRINKING Karen!

Nintendo Switch |OT| Oh look, is Karen with her Nintendo thing!

lmao

 

[Spy]

What other Wii U port besides Splatoon, SSB, SMM, MK8, Zelda, Xenoblade X and Rayman was rumoured?

That's all of them which is 7 games.

 

[OrbitalBeard]

I was unaware of this statement, but I can dig it.

From a TIME interview with Miyamoto

Doing this now at the 30th anniversary [of Super Mario Bros.] is really putting some more of that creativity into the players,” says Miyamoto. “But at the same time, we as the developers feel that it’s time for us to move in a new direction, and we’re preparing to work on the future of Super Mario from here on.

 

[Interfectum]

Where did I say "all of this is completely fake"? He put that in quotation marks and I didn't say that.

 

[Tizoc]

Just chiming in to say that I expect a Megaman (classic) game to be announced.
And I say that unironically, unoffensively and in all seriousness.
If there isn't one, I wouldn't even be mad~

But yeah this thing takes place 12ish hours from now right? I'd be waking up, taking a shower and heading off to work so hopefully GAF doesn't die from all the Nintendo news.

 

[PadWarrior]

So wait some of that 4chan list is right?

 

[LiamR]

in your first tweet

"this 4chan leak is completely fake"

If you put something in quotation marks, that suggests it's a direct quote, but I didn't say those exact words. I am saying the leak is fake. What I did not say is "all of this is fake" because I did not have the time to go through it all. There might, by some miracle, be something on there that's real but I just glanced over it and noticed the fake stuff that clashes with my information. I'm really trying not to be a dick, but there is a small distinction there.

 

[Neverthelesser]

It could still be an enhanced port of Smash 4 with a lot of new content and rebranded as a sequel. Sakurai did consider Smash 3DS and Wii U two separate entries so it's not entirely out of the realm of possibility.

Speaking of Sakurai, has his health improved since making Smash 4? I'm sure a port wouldn't take nearly as much resources to pull together--Nintendo may even work with another developer, too--but I hope Sakurai doesn't hurt himself trying to make it happen.

 

[Orakio Rob]

What if Breath of the Wild has a 2D mode just like Dragon Quest XI on 3DS? Best part is: that could work even on Wii U.

Not happening, but it would be dope.

 

[Okami Haundo]

It's the big day! (At least in the U.S.)

I have to say that my hype has died down a bit. I'm still really excited for the Switch, it's more about accepting responsibilities on my part. My hype for the Switch has led to me thinking about it in isolation, now I'm thinking about it in my every day life. Still getting it on day one no matter what, but I just know I won't have the time to play it non-stop like my hype convinced me I would.

You can play Sony first party games on your computer? News to me.

I understand XB1 since you can play most first party games on the PC.

PC has Playstation Now, so yes... you can!

 

[BGBW]

That would be pretty weak for a sequel.

Game styles aren't the only thing that make a sequel.

Level themes, level elements, new modes (say a simply music composer or map designer), expanded options (more than two maps per level).

There's lots they could add without even touching the game styles.

 

[Inferno313]

Splatoon: Inked

In addition to regular paint, you can "tattoo" territory with your team logo, sort of like graffiti. They take longer to paint and remove but give you an alternate spawn point while existing.

 

[RM8]

So wait some of that 4chan list is right?

Only Street Fighter, and it's going to be awesome!

Maybe.
