Maybe I'm off center here but don't you just connect to the Internet, launch the game and join/start a multiplayer match? What's "Wii U rinse and repeat?"

I have a feeling that, at launch, it'll be functionally similar to Wii U online, because Nintendo has stated that the smart device app isn't launching until later and that app is what adds functionality like match scheduling and remote lobby creation.
It will be cool if that's all part of the games that launch but I suspect it won't be, and the trial period is going to be initially running like a beta where Nintendo's only delivered a minimum viable product.

I paid good money for this Dynex!
Sounds good. I really want this thing. I'd buy it for $60, because I'm dumb, but it really should be $40.
I dont think so. It probably means 4 joycons sliced 2 =8 on same hardware

50 stages is not a big number, considering the footage suggests the single player is standard classic bomberman "destroy the enemies on a small maze" 2 to 5 minute stages. Noone buys Bomberman for singleplayer though, it is dull as dishwater.
It supports all modes apparently.
Online: 1-8 players
Local on console/tabletop with multiple controllers: 1-8 players
Portable mode local Wi-Fi: 1-8 players

The real question is, will people be able to play Bomberman on planes?

I don't think I've ever played a bomberman game for more than 2 minutes.
A story mode is a pretty nice incentive to give it a try though it doesn't seem like the N64 ones which were pseudo 3D platformer adventure games, but I'd give it a go after I'm done with Zelda

Hoping for a lot of multiplayer customization offline and online. I wanna be able to turn of any item change time limits, etc.

Bomberman 64 was my favorite bomberman of all time
Hilariously fun game in multiplayer and had a surprisingly challenging and satisfying story mode
Use a headset or turn off the volume just to be safe.
And of course never ever mention the title of the game.
Obviously they went for 33 because Jesus was 33 when he rose again.
Maybe the 33 indicates how many times Bomberman has failed to come back to life.

why did giant bomb not like it? looks like regular old bomberman to me.
Anyone here played Bomberman Online on PC in the 2000's ?
Playing online to this will remind me that sweet era!
It will also probably make me a more tired man with a ''Just one more game!'' syndrome late in the night.
I'm checking the best versions of BM...this announcement revived an old crave to bomb shit. Sounds like the best one is Saturn Bomberman, will probably import since US copies are like 500$ CAD. :lol
Just watched the Treehouse segment of it that I missed last week, this is hype!

I didn't know I wanted this prior to the announcement, but I'm definitely excited.

I dont understand why Nintendo didnt show this game in the presentation, is actually pretty cool and can be a system seller (well at least for me).

I mean, no one has played this particular version of Bomberman, but is Bomberman in general worth it? Yes, most definitely.
All I mean is that the marketing is all about co-op, and I have no interest in that. I'm gonna wing it, hopefully I like it.
Co-op isn't a prominent element of Bomberman at all; in multiplayer it's all about competition. You're trying to blow up the other players.

Buying it at launch
IIRC it's more levels than most of the SNES Super Bomberman games had for their single-player modes and those were pretty good.
Sold, thanks.

I'm so excited for more Bomberman. He needs an amiibo and a Smash Bros appearance next....

Already can tell I'll be starved for games at launch, so I'll probably pick this up. I've never played a Bomberman game though, should I play any of them before March 3rd?
I was wondering when video games would achieve photo-real graphics. I didn't realize from watching the game, but apparently Super Bomberman R is the one! 
Still undecided on picking this up. If it's on the cheaper end, probably. Want to show support for mid-lower tier production value titles getting physical releases, and I like Bomberman. And I like that Bomberman isn't just dead.
But ever since that first Bomberman game I played (which, embarrassingly, wasn't until the Nintendo DS iteration (and that iteration was great fun. Still very fondly remember getting a spontaneous 8-player match going while waiting in line for the Wii.)), it feels like Bomberman is what it is and I don't really need more. Some of the titles seem charming (Switch version only slightly), but for the most part I'd just get a Bomberman game to have a multiplayer option at the ready.
