Yeah the job is for Imagica Digitalscape for outsourcing for a Vanpool-developed Switch port of sorts, likely using NintendoWare Bezel Engine (some 3rd-party stuff uses it like Nippon Columbia's stuff, Vroom in the Night Sky by Poisoft (yes) and the 99 series, including Pac-Man 99).案件 No.94424

remember that they had Monster Games also help with DKCTF. They're certainly not doing something as big and important as Prime 4 by themselves.
I think they're being helped by either NST or NLG because while making MP4 they've been also remaking MP1.
I don't see Prime even having a multiplayer mode. They went out of their way to highlight that their direction was "back to the roots" with this one. Prime ain't Halo, as much as everyone at the time wanted to pit the two against each other.
I see it the same way, for the most part.
just make Hunters HD. that was a good multiplayer game
I mean Prime 2 does have multiplayer, and also...
This. Have NST/NLG make a multiplayer mode that's basically Hunters.
To be fair! ...I forgot to say "new" Prime. LOL
One of the reasons Nintendo bought NLG was specifically for better co-ordination with their other teams. It might simply mean that a dozen or so NLG staff do bits and pieces to help Retro out; development assistance doesn't need to absorb too much of NLG's resources and it would be self-defeating given Nintendo want to ensure more efficient development.
I mean yea, that is just how they do all of these (especially remasters where the bulk of it is reworked assets anyhow). That's also one of these speculative things you don't really need insiders for (not a diss towards them, just a big supporter of using one's own common sense and experience).

Calm before the storm.
Assuming there's a February Direct, and that the game is now on track after the reported issues, I figure that's when we see it. Maybe at TGA.
I would love it if they just wend and ported over all those original games they put out on 3DS in its last two years or so with some enhancements and improvements. All the ones that crashed and burned commercially despite being good-excellent games (Code Name S.T.E.A.M., Ever Oasis, Dillon Dead-Heat Breakers...).
There were no "reported issues" though. The report about them working on performance improvements is just ...gamedev. All games run like crap until you go to polish. It's one of my issues with this rumor reporting stuff. Basic every day things turn into "ah, that game is having problems!" and get blown out of proportion.
I agree we see it in a possible February Direct.
Really? Woof. Which thread btw?
Soon they'll blow our minds with the best visual showcase the Switch has to offer and they'll finally be honored with the title of Nintendo's premiere graphical powerhouse developer. No rushed development with a longer development cycle, more internal employees than ever before, and a higher budget.
Soon, my friend. We're near the end. Also here's a higher quality GIF if you're looking for one

They time the took to make X made that world worth the wait, so hopefully XB3 will also be as intricately designed. Maybe they'll be able to close the gap between the linear and open approaches even more.Soon they'll blow our minds with the best visual showcase the Switch has to offer and they'll finally be honored with the title of Nintendo's premiere graphical powerhouse developer.

I hope they improve the gameplay of their exploration. I want more environmental interactivity to push the evolving progression of open world. Right now everything is pretty regular with a lot of open fields and not much other than treasures and enemies to engage with. I wonder (since this is the first new Xenoblade from the ground up since BotW came out) if they'll look at BotW, especially as a developer who worked on it, and implement some of its world interactive philosophies. It is a Monolith Soft type thing to do for developers who consider map/world design their number 1 priority.
They do need a lighting overhaul. That would help solve some of their presentation issues. They added depth of field in Torna (a mega low quality version), improved on that engine for XC: Definitive Edition (a much cleaner, no bleed, no ghosting DoF), now adding a real time day night cycle, better and more accurate shadows and highlights, improved LoD, improved grass distance, better ground textures, higher resolution, and somewhat of an attempt at actual localized lip syncing, they'll be gold
Emily made a post in the Nintendo General Discussion thread talking about Nintendo's 2022 lineup. Just go a couple of pages back and you should see the post.
Wayforward must've been crushed by the pandemic if that's the case. Yeesh.
Hey, on the bright side, it seems like the game is releasing in April!
To be fair, 2020 and 2021 were Covid years, and games had to be shuffled around accordingly. Either due to development reasons, marketing reasons, or both.
Predicting release schedules isn't easy even if your sources are A++ quality. My understanding is 3D World was originally a Holiday 2020 title - not a February 2021 title. Another first party game must have been delayed from Jan-March 2020, so they filled that slot with 3D World. That's why that had to extend Mario's 35th anniversary celebration beyond 2020 (into early 2021). Pikmin 3 Deluxe was originally suppose to be a Spring title, not an October title. Again, games got shuffled around.
Advance Wars was suppose to be 2021, but it's getting bumped into early 2022. Delays happen.
Also, Zelda BOTW2 isn't "rumored" for 2022. A 2022 release date for BOTW2 was officially announced by Nintendo at E3 last year! That didn't come from insiders, it came from Nintendo's mouth.
This proves how easy it is for misinformation to spread.
Here is the post I made.

I said AW was 2021, not 2020.
I think you might be mixing up what I said regarding 3D World Deluxe.

Nintendo General Discussion |ST2 Nov. 2021| Are You Gonna Play Shin Megami Tensei V the Dub Way, or…
I had never heard of this until yesterday but it looks so much like Legend of Mana I'm surprised I didn't know about it. Do we know if this removes any F2P gacha elements from the mobile version? The Gematsu article with the trailer didn't have any details on changes. IIRC the gacha was mostly...
I was surprised as well
It’s okay Emily. I’ll forgive you if you spill all the beans on a Star Fox title for Switch
well that solves that question. I don't think Ambrella was that big, wonder why an acquisition. though I guess doing it this way gives them all their assets like studio leases and equipmentCreatures have finally acknowledged their acquisition and merger of Ambrella. Looks like it went through at the end of November last year.
This brings their staff number up to 178 (from 144 in August 2019).
The last Rumble game was in development for 3-4 years and bombed, so I'm guessing that Ambrella didn't have much time left on their own. Having worked on Pokemon for years was probably a good enough reason for Creatures.
