"Certain major title"?Yeah that kind of language is an instant red flag. Definitely BS.

Nintendo would never do shitty mobile games. And if they did, they would never include them into main series. Right? Right?
Yeah you know the one"Certain major title"?

No, that's not until the 30th.glad to know with near certainty that that post was horseshit
No matter what you count the mobile game as, there will probably be no MK 9.companies tend to skip the number 9. iPhone 9, windows 9, macOS 9 etch, also this:This can't have been a tease, since the next Mario Kart game will be MK9, not MK10.
The point is that the Booster Course Pass trailer treats Tour as Mainline Mario Kart.Is Mario Kart 8 a shitty pay-to-win mobile game ?
My one source on that is that article. It might be BS....that is the first I've heard of nine being negative in Asia.
Two PS5 Game Discs store 256GB WITHOUT file compression. A game would have to be awful full of... Poor decisions for it to require such generous...ness.Ehh I doubt they would eat the additional costs associated with a two disc release just for a marketing gimmick.
Regardless, Nintendo has treated the portable MKs and and the TV ones to be a single series, and Tour continues that trend. If for no other reason that Mario Kart 9 is likely the internal name for Tour, they won’t reuse it for the next one.My point was sarcasm about how shitty mobile-Nintendo-to-please-idiot-shareholders is.
...for the Nintendo Switch Family of Systems, huh Sega?The ”major title from SGF” truly would not surprise me if it was Sonic Superstars. Nintendo and SEGA have a great relationship, Geoff treated Superstars as a pretty big thing, and it would be a great contender for a 4K patch.
This was back in 2011. You can't expect them to keep this kind of attitude for even a few years following, especially since this was before Wii U launched (and flopped) and 3DS slowed down hard in sales.Once again, I know that, of course. I was trying (obviously badly since people answered seriously) to express how much I despise what Tour is and how much it is in perfect contradication about all I love so much about Nintendo, in my opinion. To be even more direct, Iwata was always relectant to that.

They can even give up on hardware and publish titles on PS5 if that's what idiots shareholders want. Not gonna like it, personally.This was back in 2011.

they would when the discs are cheap
What's the source for this? Given that the film industry is still primarily releasing on dual layer BDs, I would not assume triple layer BDs are as cheap as you are making them out to be.Two PS5 Game Discs store 256GB WITHOUT file compression. A game would have to be awful full of... Poor decisions for it to require such generous...ness.
And yeah, it's not a Nintendo Switch Game Card; as others have said, discs are cheap, dirt cheap. A two disk BDXL game today costs no more than a one disc CD game from the 90s.
Not if they market it as the next generation and start phasing out the previous genREDACTED being folded into the Switch family would imply it's a Pro instead a new gen which is absolutely false at this point.
Not sure I follow, but I think I agree in spirit.Not if they market it as the next generation and start phasing out the previous gen
well we don't even know if this game is printed on such discs. FF7R was on two discs as well, so this might be the same thing. given how pretty much no other company is doing this, SE is doing it for the prestige, and is still charging the same price (or $70, but not for disc reasons), the difference is probably not so much biggerWhat's the source for this?

That would be a great way to recreate the WiiU problem of "people think it's just an add-on not a new console".Not if they market it as the next generation and start phasing out the previous gen
I’m not sure how folding Redacted into the Switch family would imply that it is a Pro. I think Nintendo very much wants a family of systems considering how much they talk about NSO & Nintendo Accounts.I think the "family of systems" comment was just a combo of being a super formal press release and translation quirks. Plus, to me, REDACTED being folded into the Switch family would imply it's a Pro instead a new gen which is absolutely false at this point. Do we have any examples of Nintendo bundling same-brand successors (e.g. DS & 3DS, Wii & Wii U) into the same families? I can't recall any.
Frankly no one is gonna think this unless they completely change the shape of the device & name it something like Super Switch.That would be a great way to recreate the WiiU problem of "people think it's just an add-on not a new console".
SEGA of America, Inc. announced Sonic Frontiers is launching just in time for the holiday season on November 8, 2022 and is now available to pre-order for PlayStation 5 (PS5) and PlayStation 4 (PS4) consoles, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, the Nintendo Switch family of systems and Steam starting at $59.99 USD and will be supported with Smart Delivery on Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One.
not to nitpick, but there was a MacOS 9.No matter what you count the mobile game as, there will probably be no MK 9.companies tend to skip the number 9. iPhone 9, windows 9, macOS 9 etch, also this:
"Also, it's believed that the number nine isn't welcomed in many countries and cultures. The number has negative meanings in Asian languages, with one translation meaning a literal curse in Chinese and torture or agony in Japanese"
Why Did Tech Giants Microsoft & Apple Skip The Number 9 For Their Products?
Every year, Microsoft and Apple launch their new products, whose launches are looked forward to worldwide. But why did these two tech giants skip the number 9 for their products? Let us decode this for you!www.indiatimes.com

Retracted. Or should I say, REDACTED?so glad that we can move past the "family of systems" semantics
did you miss the frontiers copy above?Can we? In what way?
(I joke but, seriously, nothing really suggests we can or can't. I don't think it's unreasonable to speculate on the usage of "Family of Systems" by a third party publisher, however slim the chance it actually means anything might be.)
Yeah.did you miss the frontiers copy above?
The average consumers relationship with technology in general has matured and evolved so much in the last decade. At this point I think we're babying the consumers and Nintendo too much by alluding the Wii U debacle. It was terrible, but It was also a unique set of circumstances that led to that, circumstances that would require a deliberate effort from Nintendo to make happen again. People are able to differentiate between iterations and successors.That would be a great way to recreate the WiiU problem of "people think it's just an add-on not a new console".
Where have you been for the past decadeNintendo would never do shitty mobile games. And if they did, they would never include them into main series. Right? Right?
The Ring Fit Adventure sequel is gonna be crazy!Switch 2's dock will include a weighted crank /s
That would be insane lol.Was that the one that also included a VR headset?
It was a patent. I was kinda hopeful that it was a concept for the next device, which allowed the 120 million Switches that are out in the wild to connect with it for asymmetrical play.
Imagine if it was VR, and this was a flagship title along with MK9
Lol, you can't compare what he said in 2011 and what they did in 2015. They were pressured to to mobile games because they were not in really great position.Once again, I know that, of course.

Sorry that this is off-topic but I'm unsure what counting mktour as part of the main franchise has to do with anything "pleasing shareholders." It is just a choice they decided, especially since they're porting over tracks from said title.They can even give up on hardware and publish titles on PS5 if that's what idiots shareholders want. Not gonna like it, personally.
I’m not making any comparisons. I explain why personally I am symbolically quite hostile to the fact that Nintendo considers Mario kart tour as part of the main series. Precisely for the reason that you imply yourself: the reason why Nintendo went into smartphone games is that they were forced to do so by pressure from their investors while they were going through a difficult situation.Lol, you can't compare what he said in 2011 and what they did in 2015. They were pressured to to mobile games because they were not in really great position.
Mario kart tour and its deplorable micro-transactions would simply never have existed without shareholder pressure.Sorry that this is off-topic but I'm unsure what counting mktour as part of the main franchise has to do with anything "pleasing shareholders."

It doesn't work like this. NieR: Automata was over 40GB on PS4, while Witcher 3 was even more, but we have full games of both on cart on the Switch. Bloat is a thing, as are optimisations, as are architectural, efficiency, and performance gains. NieR: Automata was about a quarter of the size on Switch.If FF7 Rebirth requires 2 discs on PS5, how many cartridges would a Switch case need to carry
