[Rumor][Potential Spoilers] Nintendo E3 games leak

4-Time GIF/Meme God
Octopath Traveller - waiting on my special edition pre-ordered. I haven't bought one since PS2 FF12. The only thing I wish it had was an art book. I love the saturated color painting art in the trailers.
and Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus - DOOM has been great on switch looking forward to this. Haven't played one since the one after RTCW(RTCW was my favorite!)
Super Smash Bros Developed by Bandai Namco - Doesn't Hal Labs usually make these? What gives?
Metroid Prime: Renegade - is this 4? I really think the first 3 are needed on the system only played first, and I hate when story games are released that doesn't include access to previous.
Yoshi’s Flipping Island - this looked great. Going to wait on reviews as it looked kinda easy. I,don't want new Kirby levels of ease.
The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening 3D - the only Zelda I ever liked! Is this isometric 3d or are they doing full 3rd person 3d world? This was a game boy game. Unexpected very cool. MAYBE THEYRE USING BOTW ENGINE YOU THIEF!
Luigi's Mansion - DAY FKN 1. PRE ORDER SPECIAL EDITION MINT SEALED IN COFFIN WHEN I DIE OF JOY. PEACE ON EARTH CAN WAIT, GOT GHOSTS TO VAC!
Smash= Namco already worked on Smash for the Wii U
Metroid= Prime 3 was Corruption, so no problems with a sub title
Link's Awakening 3D= chances are that will be just like the Sega classics with 3d effects for the 3DS, not a new game. I guess they won't remade a game for the 3DS from scratch at this moment.
Luigi Mansion= already confirmed for the 3DS, so no big deal if is only for the 3DS. If they show it and more Game Cube games to the Switch, that's another beast.

Not buying it. Nintendo is usually not this early with releasing info on directs (internally I mean) if the past leaks are anything to go by.

I'm with this one, honestly. I've always had the impression that Nintendo is so secretive and restrictive that Reggie isn't even sure if he can brush his teeth and take a shower in the morning before getting some Chief Quimby, Inspector Gadget-style message out of a trashcan telling him it's ok.

While plausible, this seems sloppy by Nintendo standards.

While none of this seems unreasonable, Lylat System doesn't sound like a very Nintendo-y subtitle. And I'd expect them to have more small projects to show off than this list implies. I'm gonna say fake, though I wouldn't be terribly surprised if it ended up being true either. *shrug*

Unless it was intentionally leaked by Nintendo.

Never forget NTKRNL “leaking” Halo MCC and other things.

That would be amazing. My Switch doesn't get much action nowadays, but that list of games would change that...but like my mom always said, if it's too good to be true, then it probably is, and your father is never coming back.

It's been 4 years, but I'm sure he'll be back. You know how crazy those lines at Wal-Mart can get.
 
I would have actually believed it more if it weren't for those shots of the printouts. I guess we'll see, but I certainly am not getting my hopes up for anything on that list being real.

I'm interested in Smash Bros, Punch out, and F-Zero. Too bad no Animal Crossing.

Also, I was a huge fan of Tomadachi Life. Hope they make another one some day.

I wouldn't think they're remaking it "from scratch" per-se, but I imagine IF this is real and it's an actual remake, it's an asset dump, similar to Triforce Heroes. Reusing as many assets as they can from Link Between Worlds in order to get it out with a relatively low development cost.
 
I cant tell if this thread was started because op actually thinks these are somewhat real or to try and see if gaf still takes paper "leaks" somewhat seriously.

As much as I'd love a Links awakening remake, not for the 3ds, please no. The 3ds is 7 years old, make a successor already or make an hd version for the switch available.

All these titles reek of a fan desperately trying to come up with a name for them.
Fire Emblem Memories - I could kinda see it, but the only games that were named like this were Fates and Revelations and I feel they would want something more unique for the Switch game.
Metroid Prime Renegade - The hell? Why would they rename from Metroid Prime 4 after that reveal teaser that heavily focused on the number 4?
F-Zero SX - Might seem plausible at first glance but let's be honest Nintendo would want an interesting name for the first game in 15 years. Also, GX was the only game named this way, there's no reason to expect them to continue it.
Yoshi's Flipping Island - I'm not even going to dignify this with a response lmao
Star Fox Lylat System - Too much of a mouthful
Punch-Out!! Become the Champion - This one is silly enough that I could actually see Nintendo doing it. Pretty good name 9/10

Exactly. No chance in hell NoA looked at that title and thought "I sense no danger here."

Yeah, if Link's Awakening 3D happens, it'll be made using Link Between Worlds Assets in the Link Between Worlds engine. You'd already have a fair amount of the enemies and some of the items done.

Fallout 3 and Skyrim must be the most rereleased games of all time. It's the gift that keeps giving to Bethesda.
What are you talking about?

Skyrim has had 2 releases: original and SE.

Fallout 3 has not gotten re-released at all. Only the version released in 2008 is available.

Please do some actual research before posting false statements.

Rude post.
Obviously I'm saying they have been ported and released a multitude of times of several different consoles.

Again false.

Fallout 3 has had ONE release. Not many. One. It was released on 360, PS3 and PC in 2008. It has not been re-released on any other systems since that time. Saying it has gotten multiple releases is an absolutely false statement. It has not.

Now if you’re trying to argue about the number of editions Fallout 3 got okay, but that doesn’t really count because each of those editions was being targeted to a different audience. The vanilla edition was targeted at the casual gamer, the bobble head collectors edition at the collector and the GotY edition was targeted at the person who didn’t get the original release. It’s unlikely that one person is going to buy all of those because theyre the same game.

There are quite a few games that have gotten released on multiple gens. As of now Fallout 3 is not one of them.

Fact.

Skyrim has its original 2011 release playable on PC, 360 and PS3 and the special edition which was released on PS4 and X1 (PC got a free upgrade). That’s two.

In fact the only game off the top of my head that I can think of that got more than two re-releases was the original Halo as it was on OG Xbox, rereleased as the Anniversary edition in 2011 and the MCC.

I hope none of these are 3ds games. Let that thing die.
I agree, with the amendment that I hope none of them are exclusively for the 3DS.

There's no reason smaller teams can't keep porting smaller games to 3DS til 2025 for all I care, but it's just... self-defeating and weird when Nintendo releases games exclusively for 3DS after their next gen console/handheld is already out. Was there any reason for Samus Returns to be exclusive to 3DS? Maybe they see an opportunity to get double purchases with a touched-up port later on, but I think you run into the Tropical Freeze issue then, where your last gen version competes with the current gen one. Basically, unless it's a concept that can only be done on a dual-screen handheld, every game should be cross gen, IMO.

That cuts both ways though. If that picture we have of the next Pokemon is legit, and it is a continuation of the X, Y, Sun, Moon, style, then I see no reason 3DS owners shouldn't get a down-port too.

Skyrim kind of has. Fallout 3, though, wasn't it released just for PS3/360/PC?
Skyrim has been ported once to its respective next gen consoles. Fallout 3 hasn't so the original post that they are the most rereleased games of all time is simply a stupid statement

If that shit is real I"ll shit a chicken.

That would be an unbelievable lineup for an E3. Incredible. So it can't be real.

But my PRIMARY target for that list is mother fucking Punch Out!

The Renegade sub-title to Prime has my jimmies super rustled. Samus going against the Galactic Federation, after a very very long setup for that?
 
I'm sure many of those games will be great but is it me or is Nintendo the least interested out of the big three to create all new ip's with all new characters? I know they sometimes create all new experiences but they don't take as much risk because they continue to rely on known characters to help advertise them.

Showing DBZ and Crash Bandicoot in the sizzle reel is a good segue to them announcing Goku and Crash in Smash5!

All I care about is Fallout 3 Anniversary as I don't have a Switch and probably won't for a while. It would be nice if Bethesda had come out and hinted that this was possible as they did with Rage 2.

I like the list. Would be satisfied and happy with Retro's game being an open world Starfox revolution a la BOTW.
 
wh would Metroid Prime be at e3 if it does not guarantee it will come out this year? Nintendo has already mentioned, "that games coming after 2018 will be shown at a later date". That's something to keep in mind.

Have they confirmed that Metroid Prime isn’t coming this year?

I’m inclined to believe that Fallout 3 Anniversary is fake. When something leaks there has usually been some evidence that it’s real but nothing in this case.

Of course no denial could also be seen as a possibility.

They literally showed a logo as the reveal. I don't think it's optimistic to expect a new trailer?

It’s the one that adds more validity to the leaks for me tbh. Zenimax and Bethesda have been supporting the Switch like crazy. After the success of the Skyrim remaster, a Fallout 3 remaster makes perfect sense.

So I initially thought this was super fake but Splatoon 2 Octo Expansion has just been announced and Fallout 3 anniversary has had another rumoured leak... Does this mean we shouI'd take this rumoured list more seriously?

The octo expansion was announced months ago.
