Looks like Arlo is on Team January
I'll check this later on my lunch break.
I wonder if and when Nate will drop his 2023 Predictions.

Soon-ishI'll check this later on my lunch break.
I wonder if and when Nate will drop his 2023 Predictions.
I hope someday we will see Cruis'n Trilogy HD.
I was so happy to see Cruis'n Blast during a Nintendo e3 Direct (and I love the game).
If it makes any difference, there is an option you can toggle that affects how much the chars are chatty.Forspoken is going to "flop" anyway no matter what if SQEX keeps their attitude about how these types of games ought to perform from the days of their TR reboot.
Not gonna buy it myself unless I can turn off the bloody in-game dialogue or have it trimmed down to the necessary bits, the world and gameplay look interesting but ffs I cannot stand how "late aughts Western AAA" the dialogue sounds.
Arlo is only good imo when he talks about the hyper-specific things that interest him. His 4-hour review of Pikmin 1 was actually very enjoyable. He has a few select, niche things that he really loves and it can be fun to hear him talk about those things, but when he tries to speak about Nintendo as a whole or the industry or anything else, you realize he really doesn't know what he's talking about at all.Arlo is the worst if you want to hear logical predictions.
(Or pretty much everything else).
January: Kirby Air Ride HD
I've said before, and stand by, the only reason Arlo got big was due to the puppet gimmick. Don't get me wrong it's a great gimmick, but his actual content almost always comes across amateur hour. His insights often feel like Arlo went to gamefaqs and made a thread like "why do people like/dislike ___" and then argues those points in a video.Arlo is only good imo when he talks about the hyper-specific things that interest him.

Oh absolutely. I also think the puppet is the main reason why people are so nice and forgiving to him even when he is blatantly wrong about something. They don't see the man behind the channel, they see a cute puppet, and they don't want to be mean to something that reminds them of their childhood.I've said before, and stand by, the only reason Arlo got big was due to the puppet gimmick.

That would be a great line-up and it seems quite realistic. Maybe I would swap 2D Mario with Pikmin 4. Based on rumors 2D Mario is a big "?" since it is huge and supposedly no other huge release is planned this year.Supposing new HW is due FY2024/25, here is a new prediction of FY2023/24 first party releases:
April: Advance Wars 1+2 (West Only), Everybody’s 1 2 Switch, Metroid Prime 1 HD
May: Zelda TOTK
June: F-Zero GX HD
July: New 2D Mario
August: Baten Kaitos HD
September: Punch Out Wii! HD
October: Pikmin 4
November: Metroid Prime 4
December: Style Saavy 5
January: Kirby Air Ride HD
February: DK 3D Country
March: Kid Icarus Uprising HD
FY2024/25 will start Switch 2 titles like new Mario Kart or Mario 3D but also feature cross gen original games like a new 2D Zelda or Pokémon RPG, in addition to new remasters/remakes.
No new IP's? This late in a console life is the perfect timeframe to do some. Immense install base will help no name games gain traction quickly. Maybe not directly from Nintendo but through some partner studios. Nintendo x Team Ninja? Nintendo x Soleil? Nintendo x CyberConnect2? Nintendo x Sandlot?Supposing new HW is due FY2024/25, here is a new prediction of FY2023/24 first party releases:

I’d like Nintendo to form/buy/dedicate a team to their arcade racers. Have them always working on Cruis’n or Wave Race or 1080° or Excite!! _____ or something.I hope someday we will see Cruis'n Trilogy HD.

+1 for the Last Story remake.Can't help but hope the Baten Kaitos thing is true, even though I'd never heard from that website before.
I do hope Nintendo also gives The Last Story another chance one day. Such a good little game with a tight battle system and a really likeable cast.
Come on, Nintendo, release the Gooch
I’ve never played Baten Kaitos. But it looks like my type of game.
Card base and Monolith Soft style? I’m in.
Make both available. I heard the Prequel is better
I'm sorry, but Capcom doesn't have any big games planned for Switch. The most you can expect is a new Mega Man or Ace Attorney and that's it.This isn’t a smoking gun or anything but I feel it’s worth thinking about. Capcom should be announcing a Resident Evil showcase fairly soon due to the Resident Evil 4 remake coming in March. I think there’s a chance this may help with identifying when the Direct is coming due to the following:
Resident Evil 4 remake na fase final do desenvolvimento
Resident Evil 4 remake é um dos grandes lançamentos da primeira metade de 2023 e de acordo com a Capcom, tudo parece be…www.eurogamer.pt
“Masachika Kawata added that the team is preparing several promotions for Resident Evil 4 remake before release and also speaks in the announcement of several Capcom games for 2023, including more Resident Evil games.”
It’s too early for Resident Evil 9 I reckon, so there’s a chance this could be in regards to the potential Outbreak remaster (which you’d assume would get a switch port) or the “Revelations 3” Rebecca Chambers game that was meant to be a RE switch. Although it did seem like that project had been canned. It also could be something completely different.
IF there’s something RE coming this year for Switch then I think we’d likely see it at a Direct first. Capcom did this last year with the Cloud ports of RE2,3,7&8. First appeared at a direct, then covered again at the Resident Evil showcase. The showcase will mainly be about RE4 so I think having the official reveal at a Direct then just touching on it during the RE showcase would make the most sense.
Like I said, nothing huge here but if we get an RE showcase announcement date before a direct date I think we’d at least know the latest date that the direct would be.
Or I could be completely wrong about it all! That’s the game, baby .
I'm sorry, but Capcom doesn't have any big games planned for Switch. The most you can expect is a new Mega Man or Ace Attorney and that's it.
Pretty sure the rumours about a Switch-bound RE were all debunked after the hack.
That does make it appealing, thanks for the info.If it makes any difference, there is an option you can toggle that affects how much the chars are chatty.

If you are referring to the rumoured RE "Outrage", the Capcom leak apparently showed that it was some kind of multiplayer spinoff for PS4/XB1 and not the Switch exclusive that DuskGolem was originally claiming it would be.I wouldn’t expect the Outbreak project to be a big game to be honest. It seems like a smaller deal, especially when anything RE releasing the same year as RE4 is going to be overshadowed by it. Regardless I was just spitballing. I’m sure more RE will end up on switch eventually - even if that’s after new hardware.
Nintendo's new AR mobile game?
While true, I think this statement / the general hate on him misses the point of his channel being entertainment focusedArlo is the worst if you want to hear logical predictions.
(Or pretty much everything else).
I think the enjoyable thing for me is that, even keeping track of leaks and rumours and hiring calls and development chat, there absolutely still are complete surprises. Advance Wars, for example, was completely out of the blue. Just a shame we don't have it yet.While true, I think this statement / the general hate on him misses the point of his channel being entertainment focused
For eg. I have plenty of other sources I go to for "quality" predictions and sources, but still revisit arlo for the year end/start videos to capture that classic Nintendo fan hype childlike hype that we all have inside us. Gives me hope for those crazy megaton moments that Ninty still manages to pull even when we think we know their plans to a tee.
This is 100% correct, although is predictions this time around are REALLY tame, like, only TWO games are releasing after Zelda FOR THE REST OF THE YEAR?? If he was someone from here being pessimistic cuz we’re winding down, I’d get it, but he literally says we’re still getting the Switch Pro this year (although this was recorded before Digital Foundry said anything)I have plenty of other sources I go to for "quality" predictions and sources, but still revisit arlo for the year end/start videos to capture that classic Nintendo fan hype childlike hype that we all have inside us.

That's the big reason why I stopped watching arlo, he's extremely pessimistic on nintendo every time he wants to predict something, it almost feels like he thinks nintendo doesn't want to make games.This is 100% correct, although is predictions this time around are REALLY tame, like, only TWO games are releasing after Zelda FOR THE REST OF THE YEAR??

I'm not saying those are bad games, but let's be honest in terms of scope, budget and sales they are far below series like Resident Evil, Street Fighter, etc.Don't threaten me with a good time
I totally feel thisThat's the big reason why I stopped watching arlo, he's extremely pessimistic on nintendo every time he wants to predict something, it almost feels like he thinks nintendo doesn't want to make games.
I think one of his worst prediction was a luigi's mansion multiplayer spin off for 2019 which didn't make any sense other than just being negative for the sake of it.
It just gets tiring and then I just stopped watching.
Imagine caring about scope and budget, couldn't be me.I'm not saying those are bad games, but let's be honest in terms of scope, budget and sales they are far below series like Resident Evil, Street Fighter, etc.
That's what "Taisen", whatever it may be, seeks to change. What little we know is that Capcom will be spending the most they've ever had on the brand (granted, that's still around what they did for something like MH Stories), which makes me think they're ready to try something a bit different. And as much as I want a X9/ZX3/new 2D/12/etc. too, it's actually pretty exciting to know they want to do something more ambitious with the brand than what they've done in the last decade and some change.I'm not saying those are bad games, but let's be honest in terms of scope, budget and sales they are far below series like Resident Evil, Street Fighter, etc.
