Japanese developers surely love Mazinger Z. It is also reference in Xenoblade 2 Chapter 4.
It's going to be published by Nintendo outside of Japan, so probably.
Now it makes a bit more sense why Nintendo is the publisher even though Marvelous is a publishing company themselves.
Designing a game purposefully for the Switch would feel a lot better if Nintendo liked the direction you were going.
I still don't get what specifically is different other than the less demanding graphical techniques.
Regardless I'm still interested in it.
Mechanically it looks way more enjoyable than Starlink.

Go Nagai is God for every mecha fan in Japan.
Well to be fair Go Nagai is God for all Japanese nerds, what he did in his career is unmatched.
Not much new info, but I'm keeping an eye on this game for sure. I like what we've seen and where it's heading.
The very same two things I thought reading the OP, hahah.
Beyond MHGU this is currently my most wanted game for Switch. It looks amazing, both in terms of gameplaya and visuals.
Didn't he more or less invent(or if nothing else popularize)the mecha and magical girl genre? And whatever the heck you'd consider Devilman?
Yes and yes.
He's also Hideaki Anno's primary source of inspiration between Mazinga and Devilman, and Hideaki Anno basically inspired every mecha anime post Eva (the most recent example being Darling in the Franxx) so he's a properly Miyazaki-like figure. Take basically any mecha anime ever and if you follow the inspiration you arrive at Go Nagai.
For those wondering why he says Deus Ex Machina is greek, here's the origin of the Deus Ex Machina, from Antics Greek's theater.
OP
OP
TBD, officially.
It could be a Holiday 2019 game...
My guess is "light sabers".
I know it originates from greek :)
However, the sentence in the OP is wrong, maybe mistranslated?
so far, nothing. it's just cel-shaded Armored Core. I'm guessing Marvelous wanted to get back into making their own games outside of Senran Kagura and Nintendo felt there was value in publishing it in the west
Looks amazing. Does this game have mech customization/building like Armored Core? That was my favorite aspect of those games.
The Zone of the Enders game we dont deserve! OMG this game looks awesome. ZoE3 vives right away.
This is definitely a must buy for me. The thirst for another Armored Core/Mech style game is definitely there.
It seems to have customizable loadouts at least. Not sure about parts. And we can probably forget silly stuff like stabilizers and airfoils ^^
Somewhere in 2019...
Exactly opposite of what Reggie claims they have done this E3 aka only focussing on 2018.
I actually feel its gonna be an early 2019 game or at least a First half of 2019 game due to Nintendo's insistence of showing games close to their release these days
It does, you actually customize the pilot and the Arsenal. As far as upgrades, you can actually do it on the fly. If you see an enemy with a weapon you want you can kill it and use it immdeiately.
Here's the Treehouse segment from e3 last week:
nah
he said they focused on games that are soon to release
so this game could see a spring 2019 release
My mistake then, I've misunderstood the 4gamers itw. Thanks for this great piece of info !
No offense, but I can't tell if people on here are just...stupid, or if they still don't realize "focusing on 201x" doesn't means ONLY showing games releasing in 201x. Like how many times does this have to be the case before that's understood?
I like the look of the mechs, but otherwise the game looks painfully generic so far.
The environments, enemies, and combat look incredibly bland in that treehouse segment.

Then Reggie shouldn't use it as defense when journalist ask why they haven't shown much new games..
They freaking even kick-started E3 with a game further of. Might as well shown Yoshi, right?
But hey, I just don't like Nintendo PR spins.
This game does look amazing though!
I'm kinda hoping that the customization can capture both extremes of Armored Core gameplay pretty well.
Like, if you want to skirt along the ground at high speeds like you're in a Scopedog from VOTOMS (the ACV style), then you can do that. If you want to fly forever like you're an Orbital Frame (For Answer style), you can do that too.

but that argument still holds. They focused on 2018, while sneaking in 2 titles for 2019, DxM and FE. I think the idea and gimmick of the new Yoshi game has been well conveyed, and showing it would have been pretty much a new level or two.
The part that baffle me is that people are upset that they surprised us with a couple of games for next year.
It's like me saying I'm gonna give you 5 dollars when i see you next. When we meet i give you 6 bucks as a surprise. I'm pretty sure it'd be a welcome addition and you'd appreciate it.
But on Era, either i'm a liar, or i should've just gave you 10 bucks since i gave you 6 anyway.
Profound Sadness.
But the game has nothing to do with the switch being portable and it doesn't look like it would make use of it.
Why he doesn't outright say that he wanted to make that kind of game and Nintendo offered to fund it?
At least (some) people have heard of it and know it's a Kojima game ^^
It definitely seems more Armored Core than ZOE gameplay style wise.
This should hold us over until the new Armored Core release.
We can pretty much fly with no reserves already as show in the treehouse demo. Definitely eager to see the customization options even if it won't be as deep as AC.
