Ridge Racer 8
Project x Zone 3
Tekken 7: TBA with exclusive Nintendo costumes?
Maybe you did. I never believed they would do it nor did I care for them to touch Metroid.Didn't we come to an agreement that From Software is making the new Metroid?
This is was my 1st thought. I don't care about Metroid & Ridge Racer.
Also, Namco working on Prime 4 was part of that huge leak on Reddit way back late last year.
If you guys remember that leak has got a lot of things right. They got the SFV season 3 characters dead on, even including Cody and a brand new character in G "The President".
They got Soul Calibur VI before the reveal although they got the platforms wrong but said they were unsure on that
They leaked DMC V, which has pretty much been confirmed at thus point
They also leaked that the Switch was getting The World Ends With You 2 (ended up being an expanded HD port, but 2 might still be coming)
They also got several DBFZ characters right in Hit, Beerus and Goku Black (Rose) being launch characters.
What a crazy leak. So much is coming true

Speak for yourself, in my heart, it was going to be a Platinum collaboration and a spiritual successor to both Vanquish and Metroid Prime. ;/Didn't we come to an agreement that From Software is making the new Metroid?
I mean the last one would count as more of a port than an exclusive.
3 Million dollar budgets? Hope that's not for the entire gameYes, the timing lines up too with it being just under a year before they first announced it.
Gameplay will 100% be at E3 and I think it'll be out Q1 2019
Yeah, I thought the same thing when I saw this. To be fair, we're often pretty insulated from development over there, since most of what we deal with here is western or Japanese developed. But seeing this thread, I immediately thought, "Ah, that's why he knows."I like how my smart brain never connected "hmm, the main people who know things about Prime 4 live in China" with "maybe Prime 4 is being made in a country with close ties to China."
Great brain.
What's the big deal about Ridge Racer being a Switch exclusive? Hasn't the franchise been dormant/dead for a while now? I've never seen anyone asking for one.
Ouch on Sony losing Ridge Racer exclusivility if true. Especially with the sparse amount of Arcade Racers right now on the market since EA NFS Payback killed it.
And while Microsoft have Forza Horizon, Sony wouldnt have any arcade racers on the market since Evolution is dead.

And the old Evolution staff cant do anything since Sony owns the IP :(I'm still mad there's no sequel to DriveClub. I fucking loved that game
Ridge Racer hasn't been exclusive to Sony in years. There was an altered port for N64, there was a port of 1 for DS's launch, 6 was a 360 exclusive launch title, RR3D for the 3DS's launch, that multiplatform one by Bugbear that was essentially their take on Burnout, and a bunch of mobile games.Ouch on Sony losing Ridge Racer exclusivility if true.

I have a theory:He even lists that it's a Nintendo published game later on in the profile...
He's worked in video games for decades too... It's super strange mistake.
I mean is the original source from the Wall Street Guy? He himself said three exclusives for Switch.
How on Earth guys working in the videogames industry can make mistakes like this on Linkedin ?
He could have said " working on unannounced exclusive Switch title" . I mean "First Person Shooter/Adventure" doesn't let much room for guessing error :)
He means location-wiseDon't think we are close to China tbh.. I think our politicians shot themselves in the foot quite a few times regarding China
At the end of the day, Metroid Prime 4 has already been publicly announced. I don't think putting this info on his LinkedIn profile will jeopardise his career
I don't see how they did? Bamco is known to have a close relationship with Nintendo and Ridge racer is an amazing fit for the Switch.
I would like to know what Bandai Namco Singapore have done before. I guess they will be mostly made up of a new team, though, will be interesting to see how they handle a FPS game, I don't think any Bando Namco division have made an FPS game.
Also, Ridge Racer 8 is a surprise.

It's pretty interesting that a lot of people that worked on Star Wars are in the studio.I would like to know what Bandai Namco Singapore have done before.

A leak seems to have come out from a Youtuber named Doctre81 with a LinkedIn slip. He's has been known for doing some detective work, discovering these types of leaks which have been accurate in the past.
Edit: The Ace Combat 7 piece in the LinkedIn picture is specifically talking about the VR section, which is true. It is confirmed exclusive to PS4/PSVR
Edit 2:
doesnt FPS/Action-Adventure fall under that though? Like what else is it lol
I'm not sure a port of Tekken 7 would be all that feasible. Unreal Engine 4 does work well on Switch but one of the first things cut is frame-rate. I don't think there are any UE4 60fps titles on Switch which is what Tekken 7 is. I know that T7 is already very rough on a standard Xbox One. Anything is possible but I just can't see them pulling off a 60fps version of Tekken 7 on the Switch hardware.Ridge Racer 8

Repurposed from what? As old as 6 and 7 are, they'd look absolutely terrible on the Switch. If they want low budget, they can just farm it out to another studio. But I doubt they'd bother to bring back Ridge Racer after all this time for a shitty-looking gameI'm expecting Ridge Racer to be a repurposed port made into its own entry
that multiplatform one by Bugbear that was essentially their take on Burnout
