It was in the hypothetical timeline where Nintendo didn’t buy them
Any board games any of you could recommend? These look good.

Well, I think one of the strengths of Splatoon outside of multiplayer fun, is the story mode. Both games came with single player story content that was well thought out, creative, and of course, a narrative and heck of world building. I expect the 3rd entry to follow suit. And if they add even more single player like the Octo Expansion, which was fantastic, even better.Not to say whether or not people's concerns for Splatoon 3 are founded or not, any individual can make that judgment for themselves, but it's...funny? Telling? that Splatoon 2 was a game that was an extremely iterative sequel with meta changes outside of one new mode (Salmon Run), and we got Splatoon 3 coming out with Nintendo showing us...an iterative sequel with meta changes, with our main hope of something different from the predecessor being one new mode.
I do wonder what Nintendo is aiming for here, even with the caveat that this game would've come out a year ago if COVID didn't happen.

You have the right to remain horse. Anything you horse can be used against you in horse. You have the right to talk to a horse for advice before we ask you any horses. You have the right to have a horse with you during horsing. If you cannot afford a horse, one will be appointed for you before any horsing if you wish. If you decide to horse horses now without a horse present, you have the right to stop horsing at any time.Can we quit horsing around in this thread already?

So I was browsing netflix yesterday and they showed a really uhn.... not expected selection of US Documentaries:
But the second one seems to be correct acording to this topic.

I mean...the Splatoon 2 single player was also extremely iterative of the first game's, and it's part of the reason why Splatoon 2 felt as derivative of the original as it did at launch. The weapon switching is a big deal, but the structure and progression are the same, the collectibles are mostly the same, and the game even focused on characters from Splatoon 1. It's mostly on par with Splatoon 1's outside of the less impressive final boss encounter, but it couldn't help but feel like "second verse, same as the first." I also don't think the world building from the sunken scrolls was as interesting this go around, but that's subjective.Well, I think one of the strengths of Splatoon outside of multiplayer fun, is the story mode.

Don't fix what ain't broke as they say. The core loop is fun as hell. Of course one iterates and I think it is silly that they just keep making expansion packs, especially if they want a new setting.
Only thing outside of refinement and improvements they can add is a new mode.
not that much since strikers wasn't that successful, but it's still a great result for xenobladeBeating Strikers feels like a fairly big deal, no?
I remember Iwata stating some like Nintendo bought Monolith Soft precisely because they wanted a long-running RPG series; I remember reading something like Iwata wanting Monolith Soft to create a series that could become Nintendo's own Final Fantasy, but I can't find it now I'm looking for it.I'm still shocked that the original Xenoblade 1 was even made. For context, it came at a time where Japanese developers, JRPG developers in particular, were struggling to make quality games on the HD consoles. You had some decent ones on 360 and PS3 but they were being eclipsed by games made in the West. So image a relatively newly acquired Nintendo studio who is known for making mostly linear cult-classic RPGs proposes to make a new game, then called Monado: The Beginning of the World, a new IP, for the Wii. The game will dwarf other JRPGs in size, on weaker hardware, while also being story rich and cinematic. Oh, and the composer team will be stacked with some of the industries best. And it's semi-open world with a hundred hours of gameplay.
In terms of scope, this was a massive undertaking with enough risk that any other publisher or developer would put their full weight behind to ensure that it doesn't fail. But it did get approved by Nintendo and with the seeming belief that the game would probably still be pretty niche. It had to be all that Wii and DS money Nintendo had at the time. They were willing to take a risk with Xenoblade because they were making fat loads of cash elsewhere.
It certainly wouldn't have happened in the form that it did, given Takahashi offered to cut the game down when running behind schedule, only to be given the time and resources required to finish it properly.I saw people on the other forum yesterday speculating that they could’ve made the game and Bamco and it would’ve been multiplatform. I really don’t think the game could have existed without Nintendo though.
Worry not, I got your back.As much business as I've done on eBay, you'd think their algorithm would know me better:
This is so painfully inaccurate to my tastes that it's almost funny
