Nintendo Switch #5

[Seedtype]

Come to PC, Nintendo.

(It's free real estate)

(And that will be my last PC request until the next console, sigh...)

There better be some bombs dropped tomorrow.

The “surprise” in the new Mario Kart better be something cool. Like you can get out of your kart at the finish line and start brawling.

On Thursday, they have another four hour thing called "treehouse", which i think is people showing off more demos so not everything will be revealed tomorrow

True, but have to imagine the meat and potatoes will be tomorrow, then they probably going into in details with everything on Thursday

I'm thinking tomorrow is mostly first party games and maybe a Final Fantasy IX Remastermake thing and Thursday will be third parties and a deeper dive into first party stuff. Too bad I don't live in the major cities where their having these "Experience" things throughout the spring.

Tree house is usually a deeper dive of something already announced if my memory serves me correctly.

For instance they had the Metroid Dread 90 second trailer in the direct and then the tree house was a 45 minute sit down about the gameplay.

 

[Oogie Boogie]

Yeah, Treehouse events are generally in-depth conversations about a particular game along with a live look at the gameplay itself.

 

[Jovavic]

Thanks, guys, I heard the term before but wasn't quite sure what it meant

 

[robertmac43]

That looks awesome - a great start with Mario Kart World

 

[Blitzkrug]

Lmao party chat.

Look the f*** out everybody, Nintendo has arrived in the year 2005.

(mostly in jest, i still love nintendo)

 

[robertmac43]

Got to get new SD cards.

 

[Blitzkrug]

They better not charge for Switch 2 editions of games.

Xbox doesn't charge for Series S/X versions of games or devs will bundle them together at no extra cost. Sony only charges a small upgrade fee when they put out enough of an upgrade where they consider it its own game if you happen to own it already.

They are charging an 'upgrade' fee. The tutorial 'game' for Switch 2 is one you have to buy as well.

I joined late so I'll have to rewatch the start to see if they highlighted the upgraded hardware but this has been an overall disappointment for me.

 

[Blitzkrug]

GPS for Zelda?

Uh, sure i guess.

It won't be free knowing Nintendo - hoping for a 10 to 20 dollar upgrade fee similar to sony.

 

[Blitzkrug]

Upgrade packs if you own the original game. Alright so the sony route.

Fair enough.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

I wasn't expecting a ton of new stuff from the new Mario Kart but it definitely looks like they've put a lot into it.

 

[Blitzkrug]

No f***ing way. The first mention of IO's Bond project is on a Nintendo showcase?

 

[Blitzkrug]

That's a legitimately strong 3rd party lineup. Like the best Nintendo has had since probably the gamecube.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Man we're really doing Zelda warriors again, eh.

Not that I'm complaining, this is the perfect franchise for it, but still.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Oh my god you bastards did it.

 

[Blitzkrug]

So that crushes any hope of Wind Waker's HD remake getting a port. Damn.

Yeah that kinda sucks but the original game is still so good.

Not the most impressive lineup out of the gate but it's better to have it than not.

 

[robertmac43]

Gamecube made me scream with joy.
