Angola / Zaire border region.
Mario launch title
Bundle
Coker scheme White and Blue for packaging
Bigger box then Wii U (I'm still surprise just how tiny the box was)
Box still saids NX

Leaks were pretty crazy back then
Nothing is funnier than "insiders" being exposed to the harsh light of reality. Either they are exposed as frauds, or they are forced to confront the fact that their "sources" are feeding them bullshit lol.

9. Donkey Kong: Then why hire real writers and multiplayer programmers?

Assuming 3D DK, Multiplayer could be animal buddies spun off into a racing mode like the cancelled Donkey Kong Racing or the return of Kong Battle from DK64.

Writers doesn't suddenly assume Naughty Dog style narrative. Even a decently developed cartoon story would require good writers.

That reminds me... remember Steep for Switch? lol

I have a feeling this thread is nearing its final hours soon.

I really wonder what is happening to Steep.

Last thing we heard is that it's still coming. Just hard to believe that months after the Steep announcement, the surprise DOOM port got announced and released. And now it's been out for months and Steep doesn't even have a release date.

I ask Ubisoft about this every few months and they still insist it's coming.

I heard it was still coming about a month ago but there is one major obstacle remaining.

Does anyone even remember it was announced for Switch, though? Like... is anyone waiting for this version?

I have zero interest in buying or playing it but it's such an intellectual curiosity at this point.

Good lord, they must have really trusted their insider knowledge to be so sure that the 4chan post was incorrect. I wonder if afterwards they checked their sources and admitted defeat or quietly swept their comment under the rug...

They're probably hoping everyone forgets Steep was supposed to be a thing for Switch until one day, a year from now they finally confirm they officially cancelled it, confirming what everyone knew from the start, that it always was nothing but vaporware.

It doesn't make sense to release Steep especially because it will be a full price title. It will bomb badly.
Unless they have been working on a Steep X Mario collaboration.

Now I think about it delaying Switch Steep to coincide with the winter olympics next month would at least make some sort of sense (if that is what happened lol)

That's not really a leak but a Russia exclusive bundle just like they had a Mario Kart 8 Deluxe bundle last year which never came out outside of Russia.

Lol, Donkey Kong Planet info leak:

Donkey Kong Planet Info. leak

>Spritiual Successor to Donkey Kong 64.
>Massive interconnected world.
>You can go anywhere at any time (aren't gated by lack of abilities)
>Although the open world is huge, it's actually used properly because it was developed alongside Odyssey. A lot of ideas were exchanged.
>5 playable Kongs all with unique abilities.
>Puzzle solving involves using 2 or 3 Kongs at a time to synergize. Think BoTW, but much more action focused.
>New Donk City is the only world they're revealing during the Direct. It's much larger than Odyssey's version, isn't in the sky, and is overgrown by nature.
>Heavy emphasis on "Photorealistic graphics" in the environments. They want to recapture that "DKC feeling".
>You travel between areas in a minecart.
>There's 2D sections, although I haven't heard more than that. I have no idea what this means.
>Seeing BoTW caused them to delay the game and ALMOST rework the whole thing. It paid off.
>Over 1,500 main collectibles. (Not that crazy when you consider how much Korok Seeds and Moons there were in BoTW and Odyssey.
Dam yes this is what I wanted, so happy!!

I like the Donkey Kong Planet idea.

If true, I hope they reveal more areas than just New Donk City. That would make the game look like a Mario Odyssey DLC and confuse a lot of people.

Imagine BotW Hyrule being one of those lands... Everyone would go bonkers.

What is the standard space of time nowadays for Nintendo to announce a Direct and for that Direct to happen? I firmly believe Nintendo is having a Direct this month, but there's no announcement yet - and I'm getting worried because I need it to start the year properly.
