A live reaction of the directs will be super funIt would probably be a Twitch channel show, if I am able to set it up and schedule a weekly slot that works well for me. Maybe in early 2022 I can launch the concept.
all hail the Hallowed Vermin ProPik!you just aren't one with the pikmin, sorry
I have 49 pikmin so I basically am a mega pikmin pro gamer
I was hoping we'd at least get Mystical Ninja 64, if only for the Impact song. Mischief Makers and Space Station Silicon Valley also things I'd love to see.Iβm more curious to see what we get outside the list in the first couple waves considering it has zero Japanese third parties

Yeah I had a similar idea a while back, it feels like the next big step to take, especially if it's one of those things that's designed to take advantage of faster loading speeds (a la Ratchet and Clank).I have a random, dumb idea for a next generation Mario Kart that won't happen but I love the idea so I need to throw it out.
What if the next Mario Kart had a time travel game mechanic, with stages based on past, present, and future both fictional like a cyberpunk future along with moments in earth's history like the ice age. Like all the drivers are essentially in DeLorean time machines.
Maybe they could take a bit of inspiration from Sonic CD and how different time periods had different level layouts with unique shortcuts or gimmicks, and how gaining speed (88 MPH anyone?) could trigger a time jump. Or you could have items play with space time stuff, like a powerful one can cause opponents to move in slow motion for a brief moment. Heck, have that game's version of Rainbow Road take us back to the Big Bang.
No, they didn't. For reasons that will become clear as you play further into the game.Good weekend to everyone!
I've just been off absorbed in that blasted NSO and I have some random thoughts
- Did SEGA ever make anymore games with this Alys character from Phantasy Star IV? She's really cool
No, they didn't. For reasons that will become clear as you play further into the game.
Well now I guess I have to play the whole game lol
Nah it'll be Goddess of War starring a pissed off Palutena.The Internet will break when the Switch exclusive "God of War" Game is announced.
Together with Mushroom Kingdom Hearts, Haloid and New Donk City -GTA that will be an insane 2023.
I tend to forget some of these on account of just personally really not caring for having to download things, but there the software library is fairly insane , though Eternal Darkness would guarantee peak insanity.There's one 2023-24 game, in particular, that I can't wait to see the internet's reactions to.
I think people latched onto the statement of prototyping, and then others thought that implied a concerted effort and not just ... running through ideas. Which, prototyping implies the prototypes might not even work out.Star Fox and Pikmin are constantly getting prototyped. Nintendo is always experimenting with those two IPs.
That doesn't mean they'll materialize into products on retail shelves.
Nintendo was prototyping a Star Fox action-adventure game before Rare's Star Fox Adventures.
Right, both IPs are particular favorites of Miyamoto, and there's no reason to believe they're going anywhere anytime soon.I will say , people overly ascribe how quickly nintendo would just dumpster a series, especially after a βflopβ. I donβt think star fox or pikmin are going anywhere any time soon , even if there isnβt anything in active development (which is not what anyone said, just being hypothetical) .
Particularly I feel folks have utterly ignored and dismissed how well pikmin has sold for what it is . on the wii u it was close to its best selling entry and far exceeded some other franchisesβ title sales on what was obviously a very small install base , the port on the switch has already sold 2m copies in what was about 6 months.
I'm all for Uprising being brought to Switch, even if porting it might be incredibly involved (Throw on the older games, sure, why not)If we can't get Star Fox, can we get the superior on-rails game, Kid Icarus Uprising on Switch?
Do it. We need to both become higher-ups at Nintendo so we can tag-team championing Eternal Darkness, thus plunging the company into a darkness eternal unless the IP become a Nintendo mainstay.So what you're saying is all that needs to happen for a new Eternal Darkness to be made is for me to get a job at Nintendo and slowly rise through the ranks to finally become a producer who won't shut up about it?
It is about time for Kirby's Anniversary celebrations.look Iβm gonna be real, I hope that someday I have an official way to play Kirbyβs Air Ride again
I donβt know why I like that game so much when the controls are not particularly involved, butβ¦ I wannit
I actually really like the idea of a Wario Land collection leading into a whole new Wario Land adventure (Yeah, I know, it won't happen).This might be wishful thinking (points at avatar), but I feel like Wario Land has a shot given Good-Feel have done back to back Yoshi titles. Nintendo and Good-Feel can also provide more Yoshi on Switch with a Woolly World port, leaving Good-Feel and Nintendo free to tackle something else.
I like the idea that anything they've scrapped could potentially return in some form, whether it actually reached production or languished as a mere concept. Does everyone remember Retro's concept art for that potentially really cute Boo game?Speaking about 2023-2024 games I wonder if retro is still working on that new IP that was rumored or they completely scrapped it. Even if they have to be working on something after prime 4 right.
So I guess that rules out my Sin & Punishment Trilogy cartridge desire."The sequel to the only playable N64 game on NSO"
I'll go further and say that I wish he'd been promoted to playable character.1. I wish they kept Saki from Sin and Punishment as an assist trophy in Ultimate.
The hotel is actually a spooky place for guests to stay. It's located near Luigi's Mansion and an area attributed to that Boo game, resurrected.Forget donkey kong movie, give me a luigis mansion movie so that we get one step closer to a luigis mansion hotel or area being built in the theme parks.
I was once at a museum that had a section where you go through a tunnel that "shrinks" you as go through, everything seeming to get larger as you become smaller, until you're in a little passage in the dirt with giant bugs around you.Pikmin is mainstream enough already
Actually since Sony is putting their games on pc now and branching out you never know what may happen, From Microsoft's side Halo was supposed to come to switch and switch is even getting banjo with NSO. SO the Microsoft and Nintendo relationship looks god. I can actually see more microsoft games coming soon, don't know about a exclusive but anything is possible (probably something from rare) Going back to sony, a few years ago I didnt think that ps4 games would ever come to pc and now they are doing it so who knows what will happen next.The Internet will break when the Switch exclusive "God of War" Game is announced.
Together with Mushroom Kingdom Hearts, Haloid and New Donk City -GTA that will be an insane 2023.
This is obviously just a new take on the Kid Icarus IP and the way you spun this leak won't fool me. I look forward to seeing how this series goes forward after the upcoming Uprising port.The Internet will break when the Switch exclusive "God of War" Game is announced.
FΓΌr Palutenas Verstand, Skittzo! Why do you have to beat me to the obvious Kid Icarus connection?Nah it'll be Goddess of War starring a pissed off Palutena.
I said it and I was serious about it!Someone joked(or was serious idk) about Nintendo trying to get get PS1 games for NSO and like... they totally should.
Like why not? Sony ain't gonna touch any of that old stuff ever again after the classic bomba. Folks on Switch rebuy and love talking about old games.
May as well license it out like SEGA does and make some easy money.
It was you! Yeah I think it just makes sense for every party involved.I said it and I was serious about it!
It wonβt happen. But I seriously think they should!
Maybe do PC-Engine first
Honestly my NSO wish list at this point is likeIt was you! Yeah I think it just makes sense for every party involved.
PC-Engine seems obvious too, yeah. Bring on the Bonk!
5 player BomberMan 94 online please.Honestly my NSO wish list at this point is like
1) fix OOT
2) Sega CD
3) PC Engine
4) PC Engine CD
WANT.Gasp Nintendo Japan has n64 Boxart keychains as my Nintendo rewards!?! I want them
sniffles Thank you for this.WANT.
Also, been playing Luigi's Mansion 3 the past few days, and I've gotta say, I wish Nintendo would go back to making Professor E. Gadd a character in the rest of the Mario series instead of just restraining him to the Luigi's Mansion series. There was a period of time where E. Gadd was showing up in the Mario & Luigi games and even referenced in Sunshine! And then they just stopped doing that. C'mom, Nintendo, put E. Gadd in Mario Kart already!

No worries! Honestly I had something similar too, have you checked your profile settings for displaying online status to friends, best friends or no one?Sorry for asking again:
I migrated to a new Switch from being the secondary user on my wife's Switch Lite. Now somethig seems to be off with my online status/friends list. It seems for players on my friends list I appear offline for many days (since I was last playing with the old Switch Lite), although I've been busy playing old and new games alike on the new Switch.
Has anyone an idea what is happening here?

The thing about Switch-Era Nintendo is it feels like they're going through a checklist of "Nintendo fan dreams".
- Banjo, Sora, Ridley, King K. Rool and Simon Belmont in Smash Bros? Check!
- Pokemon Snap sequel? Check!
- Grand Theft Auto on a portable Nintendo system? Check!
- Most of the Final Fantasy games on a portable Nintendo system? Check!
- New 2D and New 3D Metroid? Check!
- Advance Wars? Check! Clubhouse Games? Check!
- Fully 3D Kirby? Check!
- Monster Hunter? Check! Dragon Quest? Check!
- Bioshock? Skyrim? Diablo? Crash Bandicoot? Spyro? Check! Check! Check! Check! Check!
I'm very intrigued to see how 2023-2024 plays out. When the Switch era does come to an end, I think it'll end with a bang. There's one 2023-24 game, in particular, that I can't wait to see the internet's reactions to.
When you consider both first party and third party content (including indies), Switch's software library is just insane at this point.
And in 2029 they add Dreamcast and the OG versions of Shenmue 1&2, along with the announcement of Shenmue 3 being ported (with a new DC graphics mode) and a partnership between Nintendo and Suzuki that funds the rest of the Shenmue series going forward.It's 2028

While I don't think these games need such radical changes to make them "worthwhile," I don't mind different, wildly disparate takes if well considered and well executed, and I understand why these IPs might be used in these ways: a major draw is the characters or overall universes, and this is a way to explore those.I would probably check out a radically different Star Fox but I've always been of the opinion that if you have to change a series that much to make it "worthwhile", you're better off making a new thing entirely. Whatever they do with the next one, I hope it retains its arcade-y space shooter DNA.
E. Gadd is one of my go-to examples for characters that Mario Kart snubs but which really should be included. Nintendo Kart seems widely requested, but I do think there's a lot of room for the series to go deeper into the DK-Mario(D'Kario) 'verse, and it should do that instead. Between representation of subseries and spinoffs, characters and locations and items, with so much that can be worked with, this is the opportunity to highlight different parts of the D'Karioverse which would not be highlighted otherwise. E. Gadd could potentially be added even to the likes of Smash Bros., but I figure Mario Kart is more important for him.Also, been playing Luigi's Mansion 3 the past few days, and I've gotta say, I wish Nintendo would go back to making Professor E. Gadd a character in the rest of the Mario series instead of just restraining him to the Luigi's Mansion series. There was a period of time where E. Gadd was showing up in the Mario & Luigi games and even referenced in Sunshine! And then they just stopped doing that. C'mom, Nintendo, put E. Gadd in Mario Kart already!
As someone who really doesn't much care for NSO, I think I might be cast out from Nintendo land.And price has gone up to $100 a year. Nintendo fans still eat it up.
Startropics is now an inevitability thanks to this forum reminding Nintendo employees that it's a franchise that exists.StarTropics would be more than surprise; now THAT would be a miracle game.
Regarding the first part of your post, I made a reply the other day saying something just like that. The Switch era has been pretty amazing.The thing about Switch-Era Nintendo is it feels like they're going through a checklist of "Nintendo fan dreams".

Itβs Super Mario RPG 2.Strap in folks. Speculation on the 2023-2024 game begins now!

Beat me to it. I would pay $100 easily for that set.I mean $100 a year for all of that would be a great deal.

Yes, I already checked, it's set to "all users". I'll try setting it to Friends and see if that triggers something.No worries! Honestly I had something similar too, have you checked your profile settings for displaying online status to friends, best friends or no one?
