I could name 10 wii u games that would be cheaper to port AND more desirable than star fox zero.

mother fucker just do an HD version of star fox 64 3d for switch. that would sell way better.

Star Fox Zero without gamepad controls seems like a way bigger undertaking than could possibly be worth the trouble

gamepad controls are the only reason that game ever existed
All the more reason they should (hopefully) just make a new game.

Continue after Zero's story, if you gotta, but the next game really just needs to finally give us the no-BS followup to 64 a number of us have been waiting for so long, and never really got.

Just messing with ya.
But for a Direct this significant, I expect 3 days notice, 2 minimum.
The Switch preview, our first look at Nintendo's next console, was announced the night before the reveal. 13.5 hours before they dropped a whole new console so I guess that also was pretty significant.

Just because some random person says some random game is coming to Switch doesn't make it a rumor. At this point, I think the whole darn Wii U library has been listed in a rumor as a potential Switch release that will be shown at a Direct.

Just get Namco on Star Fox Assault 2 with the same voice actors and composer, taking after that game story-wise. Please. :(

So... to make myself into a Nintendo rumor guy, what do I need to do? Is Twitter viable or should I start by making 5-10 minute Youtube videos about something that can be summed up in half a sentence?

I don't think it's wrong for people to expect more Wii U titles to make it over. A few already have and it makes sense from Nintendo's POV to try to produce more profits off of essentially completed titles.

You also have direct teases in some cases like that Wonderful 101 art from Platinum.

That said, I don't think every first party Wii U game will make it over... but a few more, sure.

Yo, I just saw on Twitter that TANK! TANK! TANK! is getting remastered for Switch. Legit?

Got any juicy tidbits for us man. Give us something so we don't go to Twitter and post fake rumors. :P

Agreed fully.

Also if gonintendo is going to cite every rando with a rumour, era should consider banning them for a while.

I'm expecting a few more, myself. The Wii U library has a number of gems no one played due to the limit install-base - hence why we see Bayo 1/2 making way to Switch. But it feels like every time a person goes to Twitter or Reddit is saying 'Wii U Game X' is coming to Switch. If you guess enough stuff often enough you will get something right.

GotY 2018 right there.

Nah, you just have to preface a sentence with "take it with a grain of salt" and then say whatever fun rumor pops into your head.

The bolded all already have listings up on Amazon, so no, it wouldn't be those.

As somebody who put hours upon hours into the game to master the controls, I have to say that I really, really liked the core of the game. It was a lot of fun. However, the controls were just way too cumbersome. I'd gladly welcome a traditionally-controlled version of the game.

I personally don't think so. They made need to touch up some of the environmental textures but I think it really wouldn't be too hard to remake it in HD.
Glad I'm not alone in thinking this. I imagine stuff like Kid Icarus and Luigi's Mansion 2 would look plenty good on Switch also. I'd love to see a 3DS port to Switch line.

No but seriously guys, I've heard Tantalus has been hard at work on a remaster for the Switch, apparently it's one a lot of people have been asking for. The boxart has leaked, quote to reveal:

I asked a while back in the old forum if folks would be cool with a Switch version of Devil's Third Online, most said nah. But I think the online was the only praised part of the game. Maybe a remaster that runs in 1080p, 60fps, and tries to fix what can be fixed, might make it a good game... maybe?

Take it with a grain of salt, but my sources tell me we're getting 3DS remakes of the Zelda CD-i games.

Don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe to this post. Thanks guys.

I'm shocked we've heard nothing else from Tantalus on Switch since Sonic Mania and the sadly poorly received RiME port. Panic Button really ate their lunch and took over their "Nintendo AAA port house" title from their Wii U days.

Seems like there's not been much out of them since November, when they made a cryptic tweet saying "Yes!"

please no more star fox 64, remake assault if you need to rehash a SF game

also I would really like ports of Super Mario 3D World and Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze. Switch is lacking in good co-op options right now.

Well, I think we are past the hype stage.

We're now fully on the "let's go crazy with made up rumors" phase

worst part is the direct will come and its 10 minutes of indies they've shown already, then remind people about mega man collections and mega man 11, some wii u ports announced, remind people about Bayo 1+2 and 3, then some kirby and yoshi footage, a reminder that metroid and pokemon are coming to switch "2018", then brief trailers for Fire Emblen and Animal Crossing.
