I didn’t think how great fake leaks will be with AI writing

I asked it (in a very uncreative way, I'm sure there are ways to work around it) and this is what it said:

As a language model developed by OpenAI, I am unable to provide information or make predictions about unannounced products or events. This includes leaks or speculation about future Nintendo Direct presentations.

Providing false information or spreading rumors can cause harm and disappointment to others, and goes against the principles of responsible and trustworthy communication.

If you have any questions or would like information about the latest announcements from Nintendo, I recommend checking their official website or social media channels.

Then I asked for a shitpost:

This includes posts that are intentionally disruptive, irrelevant, or nonsensical.

If you have any other questions or requests, I'll be happy to help.

Oof, that's where it came from? Nevermind then, Mario Sluggers is dead (for now, anyways).

Still hoping for a surprise Mario Musou, here.

Even if I admit perhaps next year might be better suit for such.

I would legit be very very hyped for a Mushroom Kingdom Warriors. Add in all the characters you usually get in Mario spin-offs like DK and friends, Wario and Waluigi, and Princess Daisy and I'm doubly sold.

There was a screenshot of Daisy (with updated model from one of the previous sports games) swinging a bat. Zippo I believe saw the picture and made the rumor of a new Mario Baseball game and already everyone is citing Zippo as the one leaking it. Pretty sure the picture was out there before Zippo made the claim and he just made the rumor based off of that and shouldn't be getting credit.

Three things:

1 - Can false leakers stop coming up with ridiculous subtitles for mp4.
2 - Nintendo will never show both mp4 and the metroid prime remaster, if that exists.
3 - any direct "leak" where most of its games arent absurd and underwhelming like a barbie game, star fox zero remaster or 300 farming jrpgs (like the last direct) is simply not real.

Anyone else think of music when they read mp4? I know it means Metroid Prime 4

People on this forum have been discussing Mario Sluggers before him. Process of elimination regarding what’s been released regarding Mario sports games.
 
My Switch backlog: Fire Emblem Three Houses, Fire Emblem Engage, Xenoblade 3 (I am getting there), Xenoblade 2, Sparks of Hope and let’s see how the Direct goes.

  • Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp (april)
  • Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon (march)
  • Pikmin 4 (july)
  • Mario Super Sluggers: Home-Run (june)
  • DLC for Xenoblade Chronicles 3
  • DLC and Online for Cruis 'n Blast
  • Metroid Prime HD (august)
  • Teaser of Wave 4 for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe - Booster Course Pass DLC
  • The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom + new special edition Switch OLED (may)
only 3 announcements, while the rest are discussing games we already know about!
obviously, there will be some 3rd Party games; but I'm not predicting those; --No NSO news either, not even a mention of the next few N64 games.

again, no reveals for a holiday title just yet.. after all, they will air other Directs through the year;

EDIT: Forgot about Return to Dream Land DX! Defintely will be there as a quick reminder! .. No Pokémon, as usual.. but odds are TPC will do a Pokémon Presents soon (probably where Detective Pikachu 2 will finally appear)

I remember one insider tease the possibility of a Mario Musou or something last summer and I haven’t been able to get the idea out of my head since.

Actually, speaking of spin offss, I miss getting DK spin off games. Games like Diddy Kong Racing or Donkey Konga, or the canceled Coconut Crackers or Donkey Kong Racing. I want DK to become a prominent enough series where we can start getting those kinds of games again. Give me something starring Diddy, or Dixie! I really want to see what a Dixie focused Spin-off game could look like.

Preach it. Donkey Kong and company deserves more than just to be playable characters in Mario spinoffs.

Also, more people need to play Tropical Freeze

The one thing I would hope is that Koei/Omega Force, being the regular co-collaborators with Nintendo that they are, get a bit of freedom to dig into the vault as much as they want for character ideas. For both base game and possibly beyond.

It's one thing to put in regulars we see regularly enough, like Diddy, Daisy, Waluigi, or even my beloved Koopalings. It's another thing to bring back the likes of Captain Syrup, Foreman Spike and Wart. Or even utilize characters that have potential which Smash won't utilize, like Ashley.

I asked ChatGPT what it thinks the subtitle will be for Prime 4:

The best subtitle for "Metroid Prime 4" would depend on the specific themes, setting, and gameplay of the game. Some potential subtitles that could fit with the "Metroid Prime" series and its sci-fi, action-adventure style might include:

  • "Echoes of the Past": This subtitle could emphasize the connections between "Metroid Prime 4" and the previous games in the series, as well as the idea of exploring ancient ruins and uncovering long-forgotten secrets.
  • "Galactic Hunt": This subtitle could focus on the exploration and discovery aspect of the "Metroid Prime" games, as well as the idea of going on a dangerous, intergalactic mission.
  • "Chronicles of the Chozo": This subtitle could highlight the mysterious and ancient race of the Chozo, which has played a major role in the "Metroid Prime" series, and could emphasize the story and lore aspect of the game.
  • "Shadow of the X": This subtitle could play on the idea of facing new and unknown threats, as well as the idea of exploring the dark, mysterious corners of the universe.
These are just a few examples, and the final subtitle for "Metroid Prime 4" could be something entirely different. The most important factor will be how well the subtitle fits with the game's overall themes, story, and gameplay.

A Donkey Kong warriors that takes place at the great ape wars would be something

So if everyone remembers all this money Nintendo invested into game development… will we be seeing the results this direct?
Click to expand...
The recruitment investment and new building were only really announced near the end of 2021, so we are probably a ways from really seeing all of that bear fruit.

Probably something we'll start to see the results of next gen, although you'd assume a good portion of it is just to make the number of games they were already making at higher fidelity, but with less outsourcing. That said, I think Emily implied that Nintendo often has things/franchises they want to work on, but lack the resources to dedicate to, so I'm sure increasing software releases is a big part of the overall initiative.

A lot of it is just based on speculation, regardless of whatever Zippo says. We got Strikers back, Sluggers would make some degree of sense to follow suit.

I like your prediction, although I'd switch September and October. Two 2D games releasing in a row wouldn't be ideal.
