Emily mentioned that one of the reported ports is actually a sequel. You have any intel on whether it's Splatoon?

As I said on the previous page, it's not Splatoon.

 

[EatChildren]

Nintendo to close down Naughty Dog

 

[sanstesy]

No need to be facetious. Mario Kart is unique in that way.

Yes, unique like Mario Party 10.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

Man if a splatoon 2 announced with a 250 price at launch it would already be a great night for me. Hearing that it's not splatoon 2 killed a bit of my hype.

It has new content though, it's not like a sequel would add much more.

 

[Spy]

Why would she correct something Laura said though? That would be just ... rude. As they usually corroborate the info they have and they usually correct or update their own info.

I don't see how what she posted would be rude if it were something like Rayman that was actually the sequel.

 

[Trevelyan]

If anything, Mario Kart being a sequel would make the most sense, since it's been 3 years, and seems to be getting more than just cosmetic changes(2 item mechanic). Splatoon came our less than 2 years ago, so I'd be real shocked if it was that.

 

[LiamR]

He went from

"All of this is completely false!"

to

"Well, some of it is completely false!"

in just two minutes?

OK.

I haven't got time to go through and check everything on that dumb list, but I have concluded since those are totally wrong that the rest must also be made up. And I never said "All of this is completely false". Don't misquote me.

 

[PadWarrior]

As I said on the previous page, it's not Splatoon.

Smash bros?

 

[Broken Hope]

I want to play Skyrim at work. I don't really care if it looks worse, as I have a nice PC for third party stuff that I want to look nice. I don't care for the idea of convincing myself that some janky ass console version of a game is the optimal way to play it--give me a way to play that's different from how I can experience it elsewhere.

I've recently sold my Xbox One and likely won't ever buy a PS4. Those consoles are boring as they offer substandard versions of games I can play on my computer. The Switch offers something inherently different, portability, it's why I'm excited for it.

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.

So Splatoon got upgraded to a sequel? How much did they end up adding, anyway.

 

[Oersted]

I just want something named Snipperclips

Rename Zelda, I don't care

 

[oti]

Nintendo to close down Naughty Dog

Arrogant Nintendo is BACK.

 

[Colonel Mustard]

As I said on the previous page, it's not Splatoon.

So, Xenoblade is a sequel and we're not getting a port of X?

 

[Dark Cloud]

As I said on the previous page, it's not Splatoon.

Then it is Mario Maker.

No other game she's listed can be a sequel. Smash is way too early.

Nintendo Switch |OT| If Karen enjoys playing with it, then you will enjoy it too

Nintendo Switch |OT| Something something Karen something something

...

In other words, the OT's title needs to have the name Karen mentioned

Nintendo Switch |OT| Bring it on Karen!

 

[Relaxed Muscle]

I'll just got up for work, and read the 200 threads on GAF, there's no way I'm staying up until that late, neither I'm gonna wake up earlier.

 

[Discomurf]

New Smash Bros.?

 

[Magwik]

Yeah the leak sounds pretty false, mainly because I can't see ATVI putting any more money into Skylanders toys sitting on shelves. If anything they will announce a CoD port and claim its the first true portable CoD experience while hoping nobody remembers Declassified for the Vita.

"One of the rumored WiiU ports" makes it sound like it's not Splatoon, or Mario Kart. Since those have been shown and thus aren't just "rumored."

My bet is on Mario Maker.

Spoiler

I'm not sure what a sequel to Mario Maker would entail...

All eyes on Nintendo

 

[Solid SOAP]

Time will tell but I feel Skyrim is going to perform terribly on the Switch due to hardware specs.

If the 360 can run Skyrim but Nintendo's latest can't, God help them.

 

[thecouncil]

Ok, so we're getting Skyrim 2 then.

 

[Dark Cloud]

New Smash Bros.?

Or Mario Maker, which makes more sense.

 

[optimiss]

He went from

"All of this is completely false!"

to

"Well, some of it is completely false!"

in just two minutes?

OK.

I'm pretty sure he is just saying he can verify 2 of them as false which sheds doubt on the other parts of the leak which he has no idea about.

Nah it's just gonna be a dry presentation focusing on like 3 launch games.

Nintendo ain't going big with this one at all. Not at all.

This is a very good point, and I feel Mario Maker would be the easiest to add content to for obvious reasons.

 

[EDarkness]

As I said on the previous page, it's not Splatoon.

What other games are there? Mario Kart, Splatoon, Mario Maker and ...?

 

[jon bones]

what time is this in EST?

 

[Spy]

Then it is Mario Maker.

No other game she's listed can be a sequel. Smash is way too early.

The name Super Mario Maker doesn't need a 2 as it's more of a quality of life title.

 

[Caelus]

If the 360 can run Skyrim but Nintendo's latest can't, God help them.

It's the Special Edition, lol

 

[DNAbro]

Or Mario Maker, which makes more sense.

Mario Maker 2: now we got slopes

 

[Oersted]

Time will tell but I feel Skyrim is going to perform terribly on the Switch due to hardware specs.

Is that feeling called hope??

 

[Diprosalic]

can't wait for your "well i guess all of it is true, i just didn't read it right" tweet

 

[RM8]

I don't believe SSB is a new game. SSB4 has a ton of content and it's quite recent, I believe they're absolutely going to port it.

 

[thecouncil]

what time is this in EST?

11pm

 

[Kouichi]

New Smash Bros.?

My money is on this.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

Ok, so we're getting Skyrim 2 then.

 

[GodfatherX]

There's no way Nintendo would release a game called Mario Kart 8

Well at least this time the number would be correct

 

[squall23]

Pretty awful idea to launch it a week or two after (before?) FE Fates.

It wasn't just that. I personally feel that people got burnt from PxZ1 because that game honestly did have major problems, many of which were fixed in PxZ2 but that doesn't matter when people aren't willing to give the IP a second shot.

 

[Colonel Mustard]

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.

Never implied that with my post. My interest level is somewhere in the negative for Sony first party stuff. Tearaway was neat and im borrowed a Vita to play a bit of it, but not interesting enough to buy a console. Everything else is meh, for me.

 

[Neoxon]

Smash bros?

I could see Bandai Namco branding it internally as Smash 6, but it's too soon after Wii U/3DS DLC development to make a sequel.

Then it is Mario Maker.

No other game she's listed can be a sequel. Smash is way too early.

That'd make sense.

 

[KingSnake]

As I said on the previous page, it's not Splatoon.

If it's not Splatoon and it's not Mario Kart, then what?

SSB? I don't think they can can make a new one in such a short time.

SMM? I guess they can call it a new game, but that would require whole new styles for the courses, not just some minor add-on features.

Xenoblade X? This is my next guess if Splatoon is not the one. They already have the world, they just need to continue the story and change a couple of things. This seems feasible.

 

[DNAbro]

Is that feeling called hope??

It's despair

 

[-Horizon-]

Almost there. Almost.

 

[JustenP88]

My money is on this.

But when tf would a new Smash Bros be ready? I thought the last one took forever and really wore Sakurai out?

Also, if it's a sequel, why are we calling it a 'port'? I feel like I've missed something.

 

[OnionPowder]

what time is this in EST?

11 PM

 

[Solid SOAP]

It's the Special Edition, lol

Has this ever actually been confirmed?

 

[OrbitalBeard]

Well at least this time the number would be correct

Which previous Mario Kart game have you deleted from MK canon?
