Nintendo-fans be like:
(pls take not of the shitty hold mobile phone. yes, us nintendo-fans love shitty old tech!!1)
Honestly, could someone with a ResetEra-account copypaste that posting of mine into their Nintendo Direct Hype-thread? I wanna see their reaction. Considering how they celebrate every little shit game and defend Nintendo's 2020 lineup (recently calling it "ok", omg), these ideas/hopes of mine must make their heads explode in a mix of "omg, that sounds so awesome, ah, I can't anymore!" and "OMG, that pathetic guy is such an entitled man baby, LOCK HIM UP!".

My Switch collection consists 95% of Japanese games, so I thought it would be time to balance that, starting with The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. I kinda swore off large, open world games, but couldn't resist.
For those who own it: is it true that 500 MB is allocated for saves?

No idea, but have fun, it's a great port imo. First time I finished the main story of the game, too.
Meanwhile I played some more Deadly Premonition. It really has that certain *something*, but omg, I just drove the car for the first time and I think graphics went from early PS2-level to PS1-level. It's hilarious.

So this thread, the only thread really where we talk about Nintendo-stuff, is on page 3. :/ Thank you, Nintendo, for all the exciting stuff you communicate to us, your fans, that enables us to lead great discussions. /s
On another note, *this* is the state of the super fanboys:
www.resetera.com
Removing the fluff that is DLC and updates, they're predicting old games only and they're celebrating it - and ofc you're an entitled man baby if you expect more. :/
That's why I feel like showing an example of what a reasonable release schedule for H2/2020 would be for Nintendo 1st-party + exclusives. Here we go:
July: Paper Mario
August: Splatoon Singleplayer-spinoff
September: Monolith Soft's medieval a-rpg, because it's time
October: Bayonetta 3
November: No More Heroes 3
Dezember Super Mario Collection (includes Galaxy 2), countering nextgen-systems with pure nostalgia overload:
January: Xenoblade X Remaster (because Xenoblade 3 releases at the end of 2021 and all previous Xenoblades needs to be released before that when X3 combines all story lines)
*That* would be a reasonable expectation for an alright lineup. One big new game, two 3rd-party-helmed games, two medium-sized singleplayer-games, a collection featuring the biggest mascot character, and then easing into early next year with a port again. Et voila, great H2 that doesn't require all that many ressources. Then put BotW 2 somewhere near March 2021 and nextgen systems will have a hard time with their shitty early-gen games.
On another note, *this* is the state of the super fanboys:

Sad how this thread keeps vanishing from page 1
On a more positive note:
I think BotW 2 will be something truly special. It came to me when I just posted a screenshot in another thread. This first game was already so big, yet it has so many lacking areas when you truly think about it. Both because we'll definitely get a new world to explore (even if it's just an extension to the existing world) and, more importantly, Aonuma wouldn't leave the existing world just the same. And then all those little things that aren't significant by themselves, but in sum add up to a big improvement, thinking of stuff like: introducing the option to make weapons unbreakable, bettter npcs with better sidestories, more varied enemies, new abilities, individual challenges instead of copypaste-design shrines, and so on. It's really like BotW1 is the blank slate that certainly was revolutionary, but because it was the first of its kind, it also was relatively barebones.
As shit as Nintendo's 2020 lineup is as well as their communication, this is something worth looking forward to.

Me visiting this thread lately
Yes, this situation surrounding the Switch is just sad. It's not like there's no games per se, but we have ZERO announcements of games that we can look forward to, hype ourselves, and talk about. Woohoo, Paper Mario :/ And with E3-time gone and July on the verge, there's nothing to confidentially look forward to until ... September. :/ And even that's only a flimsy hope for TGS and a Fall Direct. Until then it's hoping for drip-feed announcements one at a time, any many rumored games aren't even hype at all (all those rumored OLD games, ugh). It sometimes makes me wanna cry.

That Mario collection is months off they won’t release that with paper Mario coming out in a couple of weeks, I think we’ll hear rumblings of Metroid and Zelda I reckon they’ll both come out next year maybe we’ll get an update in August/September.
Pokemon snap is defo late november title I think that will be the holiday title.

I don't know friend. NSMBU Deluxe and Mario Maker 2 came out in the first half of 2019, like months apart. I could see Paper Mario in July, Mario Ultimate Mega Compilation All-Stars 64 coming out in November.
Since we're putting up guesses here, I'm going to try to visualize their schedule for the remainder of the year:
July: Paper Mario
August: Pikmin 3 or 4
September: New Kirby
October: Metroid Prime Trilogy + Pokemon Snap
November: Mario Super Moneyshot Ultra DX Package (WITH fucking Galaxy 2, git gud

January: No More Heroes 3

I always try to look at how they've done things before with releases.
For example, Paper Mario was announced May 14th for a July 17th release.
New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe announcement was Sept 14 2018 for a January 11 2019 release.
I think therefor it's safe to assume that any game announced as early as next week would not be releasing until early September.
The only exception there would be if a game was to be digital only and I don't see why they would do that.
I have a bad feeling that something is badly wrong with their release schedule.
Possibly some projects not working out, being cancelled or just being delayed.
Could easily be a combination of offices being closed due to Covid19 and production lines slowing right down.
Pokemon Sword and Shield was announced Late February 2019
Smash Bros Ultimate teaser was early March 2018
Mario Odyssey announcement trailer was January 13th 2017.
I believe these were Nintendo's big holiday releases of the last 3 years?
So we are into July 2020 almost and they haven't even given a teaser trailer of their big holiday 2020 game.
Something is up.
Nintendo's marketing strategy tends to be to give a teaser, then official announcement, then a few gameplay presentations, then finally release.
A lot of these rumored releases have nothing so far.
Even a pretty standard sequel, Mario Maker 2 was announced on Feb 13 with a release date of June 28th.
A non-flagship title like Astral Chain had a Feb 13 announcement for a August 30 release.
The only way I can see Nintendo pulling out some good stuff in 2020 is if we are going to get some digital only releases with physical editions coming down the line in a few months.
I just don't see them doing a Pikmin or Metroid release without significant build up.
Which means those are at least 2 months out OR they are not even close to ready or they don't even exist.
I hope they aren't hoping to skip the big holiday season game this year but we are almost into July now and by this stage on the big holiday games they will be full on showing these games in action on "Treehouse" streams and FOR SURE those Treehouse folks would be able to stream from home or whatever.
I know I like to rib

regarding Monolith Soft's new IP but if we are being real here they would probably want to give that one a good 4 to 6 months of publicity before release. Here's the teaser. Here's the release date. Here's what the special edition will include. Here's some gameplay.No way they are going "here is the new Monolith Soft IP, releasing next month".
I am concerned, to be honest.
Maybe 2021 will be stacked as we get some kind of rebound effect after Covid19.

To be honest, I think Pokemon Snap is nowhere near big enough to be their holiday title.
I'd be blown away if Nintendo don't have their holiday releases penciled in many years in advance.
They don't have THAT much to work with so you can be sure they must be working with a "top tier" roster of mainline Mario, Zelda, Pokemon, Mario Kart and Smash.
My assumption at this point is that we were due to get Mario Kart 9 or BotW 2 this holiday season and due to the current situation whatever they had planned is going to miss the holiday season.

What makes this dead release schedule even weirder is that just three days ago, Nintendo Japan made a statement that Corona virus has *not* impacted their 2020 release schedule. This is actually something I've speculated about before, but I was shot down because "come on, it's Corona, dude!". Turns out it's not Corona after all! This means the shitty schedule SO FAR was always planned by Nintendo, which is shocking.
So that leaves the second half of the year. In this case, the news about Corona having had no effect is good news, because it allows us to be hopeful that some good, big new games will release later this year. However, I agree with S Saruhashi on that the announcement windows is getting smaller and smaller.
I'm at best 50:50 about this prediction, but I can see BotW 2 being their November/December-release this year after all. Nintendo wouldn't have shown that reveal teaser if they weren't far along. And while it's a lot of work, too, BotW 2 is probably "only" content creation, all the foundation already exsits (the physics, the environment of Hyrule, lots of assets, etc.). It's certainly possible. What makes think that it *won't* release this year is nextgen consoles. Nintendo has always been shying away from direct confrontation and I kinda see them back off this time, too. Putting a new Zelda vs. PS5 vs. Xbox Series X. It might not necessarily hurt Zelda (much), but it creates conflict where it's unnecessary, and unless BotW 2 is the 2nd coming of Jesus and instantly noticable as such by the mainstream audience, it just won't be the HOT TOPIC during that time. So I'd say it's more likely that we won't get the game this year.
Now, this is my personal hope/wishful thinking, but since Switch does need a big holiday game still, why not have that be Monolith Soft's next game? My theory always was that their next game would release this summer, then Zelda for christmas. Zelda is most likely out, so that leaves a spot for a big adventure-type game. Monolith Soft-games aren't as mainstream as Zelda, but they have their own audience, an audience that won't care about nextgen systems coming at the same time. And there's the chance that it might benefit from the christmas treatment, pulling a Xenoblade 2 and enjoying unusual sales legs.
Ofc, the most likely scenario is that neither Zelda nor a MS-game release this year and Nintendo's christmas game is the Mario Collection. And I'm gonna puke then.

"Something cool" is euphemism for "nothing of significance".

I have to stop reading right here. I don't think anyone ever plans a sub-par quality thing unless they don't like the customer. It's far more likely that the company that oft struggles to complete their games on time has simply failed to complete their games on time again.
Namely, I think this was supposed to be a Metroid and Mario holiday schedule with 2 historically awesome trilogies released this year and a brand new release in MP4. I also think they probably wanted Bayo 3 for October. MP4 and Bayo 3 being M.I.A. is what's up.

Can we all agree we’ll never bitch about E3 again? From Nintendo’s implementation, to scattered conferences, this is hands-down the worst execution of E3 season I have ever seen, and I’ve been following this stuff (as horrid as this is to admit) most of my life.
Nonetheless, if it’s true, I look forward to it. Paper Mario was a fun little announcement, and exciting, if not what I wanted.

Wording. The act isn't horrid, but admitting it is.
It's social stigma. I quite enjoy it, but a lot of the people who tend to get into this stuff that hard, are not people I want you all to mentally associate me with.
I'm not obsessed. It's a fun little hobby for me. I live a life apart from that. I feel a need to draw a line inbetween me, and the people that are the opposite of all those things.

One of us! One of us! One of us! Your one of us, Arcade Girl!
We're actually all pretty chill with our interest in this hobby, I think. Obviously some, like Jooxed, are waaaay into collecting, which is another valid way to enjoy video games. I don't even think of video games as my biggest hobby. It's probably third on the list, actually. I know what you're talking about with the social stigma. There was a time when I used to think I was hardcore into video games, and the Xbox scene showed me otherwise. I could never pour the hours into playing games that some people do. I've since realized that my taste in video games is much more refined and nuanced. More sophisticated. That's Nintendo. And a hand full of others. I prefer to get temporarily lost in my games as opposed to forfeiting my life going from fix to fix as some seemingly do.
I too have been following Nintendo and E3 going back to around 2000. You could say I was intellectually interested in the business side of the hobby. A nerd.
