Never played Horizon or Genshin, but Immortals is pretty damn good.Aside from Elden Ring, what’s the best “If you like BotW, you may also like:” out of Genshin Impact, Immortals Fenyx Rising and Horizon Forbidden West?
I can also only speak to Immortals but I'll also say that it was a pretty fun time. It's less directly BoTW and more "Ubisoft open world but with BoTW traversal and more of a puzzle focus" but it does achieve its goals admirably. Nothing masterful, but a solid all around fun title that's a blast to play through.Aside from Elden Ring, what’s the best “If you like BotW, you may also like:” out of Genshin Impact, Immortals Fenyx Rising and Horizon Forbidden West?
Nate is 1,000,000% confident in Metroid Prime HD. It's been discussed at length during several other episodes, and he expects it to be shown off at E3. No new updates from the podcast on new FE though.
Barring any big surprises like Mario or DK, my opinion of the June Direct is going to be predicated on 3 things:
1) How good does Metroid Prime HD look, as someone who's beaten every 2D Metroid (Zero Mission/Samus Returns subbing in for the oldies) but never played any Prime game?
2) Do we get our first Metroid Prime 4 teaser? Is any of it in-engine?
3) Do we see BOTW 2?
Funny enough SMT 3 Nocturne at least where we have charts sold more on the Switch than PS4 lol
Yes, great morning to them!Good morning to everyone, except to the person who designed the last boss battle in Kirby’s colosseum
Internet Hype =/= Sales numbers , Bayonetta like Yakuza/Silent Hill or Megaman are big in the internet but in reality they don't sell as much as you would expect. Bayo 3 is going to seller quite better than Astral Chain for sure though I think around 3M is a good bet.Say all you want about Bayonetta 3 and how many copies will be sold, but the september's gameplay trailer is at 2.4 million views. That's twice as much as the Astral Chain announcement trailer that was in 2019...
what the HECK is up folks!!!
Mario 128
It all depends on Nintendo's marketing push for the game. Other titles like Xeno 1, Astral Chain, Marvel got 1m sales with close to zero marketing efforts but if Bayo 3 got what Kirby got recently, 3m should be an easy task. I'm thinking 5m if Nintendo pushes the game hard enough.3 million for Bayonetta 3 would be a miracle. I’m thinking 1.5 million is the ceiling.
Either way, the sales discourse will still be less obnoxious than the “OMG Switch/Nintendo is holding the series back” discourse.
Have you tried looking at the sun? That is what’s upwhat the HECK is up folks!!!
I would be very surprised if BOTW2 didn’t have a showing in the summer Direct.I think Nintendo has to be gearing up for a significant announcement at their June Direct.
Looking at the biggest games they have planned...
Pokemon will do its own event like usual for Gen 9, Splatoon 3 will be nearly out by then, and BotW2 just got delayed and likely won't show up until later this year like September.
It really is time to show a trailer for Prime 4 and/or the next Mario even if they're 2023 or later.
They will never learn than 30fps>0fps lolEither way, the sales discourse will still be less obnoxious than the “OMG Switch/Nintendo is holding the series back” discourse.

Inb4 it pops up in the next direct with a fall release date
The sequel to Development Update on Metroid Prime 4 for Nintendo Switch
is now in development
The boss is great, but the unexpected second phase hit me hard the first timeYes, great morning to them!
(That boss is so cool…bring items like the double health bar if it is giving you grief...)
I would be overjoyed with a simple confirmation of a 2023 release window.Inb4 it pops up in the next direct with a fall release date
I would love to see Kimaya face in that situation lol it would be the biggest fuck you to Capcom possible . But honestly Bayonetta 3 if it’s as good as Bayo 1/2 and gets the full Nintendo marketing push 3M is not out of reach more than that is dreaming territory though.If you think Bayo 3 will outperform DMC5 sales-wise, I’ve got a bridge I’m willing to sell you
BOTW2, sure.I'd put money on no Breath of the Wild 2 or Metroid Prime 4 at the June Direct.
Capcom's marketing efforts is nowhere near Nintendo's level. Bayo 3 beating DMC5 sales is more than possible. It all depends on IF Nintendo wants to push the game.If you think Bayo 3 will outperform DMC5 sales-wise, I’ve got a bridge I’m willing to sell you

Marketing isn’t going to make a niche title sell wonders. I’d love for the series to have a glow-up just as much as the rest but the simple fact is that Bayo 2 has sold not much more than 1 million across two platforms.Capcom's marketing efforts is nowhere near Nintendo's level.

Marketing is one thing. But Bayonetta has always struggled with being a character that could match or exceed Dante's appeal, and I don't think she's even going to beat out her "big bro" in that respect. Cereza couldn't even do that when she was still multiplatform, let alone when her new adventures became exclusive to one.Capcom's marketing efforts is nowhere near Nintendo's level.

Nintendo was able to make Astral Chain a new IP with not that much marketing a Milion seller it only took 6 months. Bayonetta is an establish series even if niche but it has one of the most well known characters in Bayonetta (even if there are a lot of differences appeal wise it’s similar to Kirby situation of being bigger than the games) . I think expecting Bayo to do 2/3 times better than Astral Chain it’s not that hard to imagine when it’s an IP that Nintendo has put a lot of money behind.Marketing isn’t going to make a niche title sell wonders.

It doesn’t matter how much marketing $ Nintendo throws at this series. It’s niche and that’s going to prevent it from having a wide base of appeal unlike Kirby which is incredibly approachable.
