Sorry haha, Echoes was my favorite so I have a soft spot for the somewhat more serious/macabre vision of Metroid that Retro gave us.
I’m getting a steam deck mainly to play some of my favorite older ones and some select newer ones. As well as ones like spider man from PlayStation
What do you think?
so no idea but I saw one of his tweet pass
team september 1st
Jeff basically said that they "shouldn't be stuck on Wii U for much longer and that we'll hear about them soon"
Thank you both! No interest in replaying them since I played them on Wii U, but if they come to Switch I'm glad others will have the chance to play them. I really enjoyed both ports a ton.
The internal schism of platform exclusivity versus non exclusivity must eat Dill alive.May I present the return of dill Spowser but also his ultimate betrayal
Why did you ever stop?
Never played F-ZERO GX, but from what I've heard it would probably be better than anything new and funky Nintendo would try to revive the franchise instead of just a port/remaster
This is correct. It’s also harder than anything they would make now, so might be the best way to reintroduce F zero. Soundtrack is absolutely next level as well.
What if syluxhunter is just Samushunter? Ever thought of that?
Real answer for a sec: I got burnt out from all the speculation that led to outcomes (like the June Partner Direct) that I was personally unsatisfied with. It was becoming unhealthy and obsessive, and I needed to step back and take a break from rampant speculation and shitposting. You may have noticed I’ve been active here on Fami, just not near as much as I was in June… it’s because I can’t handle the constant levels of insane speculation. Not that there’s anything wrong with it for others, I just know that I become obsessive and it starts to overtake other parts of my life (as stupid as that sounds).
Was mostly a joke on my part but glad you took a break to reset. I haven’t been as active since my general ST, mostly because of summer activities and responsibilities (and in the PNW we get like 3 months of nice weather so have to maximize it).
No worries, I figured you were joking anyway!
What do we know? I keep forgetting that the Mario Party series is always made by an outside studio.
Only way I'll like the Zelda remasters is if BotW 2 also shows up and gets a release date.
Eh, it's more fun than just saying "Nintendo Switch"
The plural of Switch is Swatch, as in "I have 2 Swatch"
Never thought of that, because Syluxhunter has gotten a thing or two right
...that 2nd WW boss music.
8, 2, 5 4, 3
Ok so maybe I am back to shitposting after allI am pleased to announce that after hundreds upon hundreds of Famiboards PMs from people BEGGING me to get back into the detective business…
I, Switchum, have found conclusive, definitive evidence of the date of the next Direct.
Don’t say I never gave you anything.
To solve the problem, we must look at the three insiders involved in the long-fabled Speculation Trinity: Nate, MVG (who is Nate’s co-host on the podcast), and… SamusHunter, who represents the evil within the speculation community. Stick with me here.
Let us begin by alphabetizing the three names:
MVG
NateTheHate
SamusHunter
Let us now solve each of the three members’ puzzles, in alphabetical order.
First: MVG.
MVG follows 340 people on Twitter. I will begin by adding these digits:
3+4+0=7
Now look at select words/phrases from MVG’s Twitter bio:
“YouTuber by night” and “GameDev”
How many letters in each word from the first phrase?
“YouTuber by night”
Let’s do some subtraction.
8-2-5=1
Remember that.
Now look at GameDev. It is no coincidence that MVG capitalized the “D” in “GameDev”… he cleverly wanted us to think of this as one word, but unfortunately for him, I see past his ruse. The capitalized “D” means we must consider “Game” and “Dev” as two different words!
“GameDev”
Again, let us subtract.
4-3=1
Now we have two “1”s: one from “YouTuber by night”, and the other from “GameDev”. Now look back at the seven we obtained by observing MVG’s 340 following count. Let’s add the numbers together:
7+1+1=9
NINE is the answer to MVG’s puzzle.
Second: NateTheHate
Nate’s puzzle is a bit trickier than MVG’s (which was obviously quite obvious, anyway), but never fear, Switchum the Sleuth will break it down for you.
Nate has 10.1k followers on Twitter and 2.4K tweets. Subtract these numbers and you get:
10100-2400=7700
Let’s turn this into a time: hours and minutes. 77:00. But how many days is 77 hours? It’s about 3.2 days, which we can round down to 3.
Now, if you’re as smart as I am, you’ll notice a sneaky number 2 at the end of Nate’s Twitter handle: NateTheHate2. Coincidence? I think not.
Subtract these numbers.
3-2=1
Hence, the answer to Nate’s puzzle is ONE. Clever one, Nathaniel, but you can’t get past me!
Finally, SamusHunter.
Now, quiet down, young ones… I hear you.
“SamusHunter is a fraud!”
“SamusHunter is a fraud!”
YES, YES, I KNOW. Of course someone as smart as I does not need to be told this.
But… wait. Listen to what you’ve just said:
“SamusHunter is a fraud”
How many characters in that sentence (excluding punctuation)?
My, my, now you’re catching on. The answer is 22.
And just like that, we have solved SamusHunter’s riddle: TWENTY-TWO.
Now, let’s put it all together.
MVG: 9
NateTheHate: 1
SamusHunter: 22
9.1.22
You are welcome.

The most important thing we can glean, currently, is that they don’t seem interested in turning Mario Party into a live service game. They would rather make a new game.
