Nintendo would never allow thatMaybe Retro has been working on Banjo Kazooie 3 and it will be a launch game for Xbox 2.
Still, I'm almost as surprised. 6 didn't seem too great to me, and didn't seem to get a very warm welcome.Yeah would have loved RE7, it's a fantastc game.
Ok seems like RE5 is the best selling entry but RE6 is very close.
On Amazon Germany a placeholder listing for a Banjo-Kazooie (working title) on Switch popped up. Probably a mistake, but here you go:
Funny that it's already sitting at 16th position in the sales charts.

Yeah, i didn't like both 5 and 6 but i know i'm i'm in the minority. Forums like these can sometimes give the impression that most fans don't like these games but the sales just don't bear this out.Still, I'm almost as surprised. 6 didn't seem too great to me, and didn't seem to get a very warm welcome.
I was mainly talking about critical reception, but it's true that forum posts are limited when it comes to accurately representing...well, reality, I suppose.Yeah, i didn't like both 5 and 6 but i know i'm i'm in the minority.

Actually RE5 has the most sales in the franchise, with RE6 second (http://www.capcom.co.jp/ir/english/finance/million.html). So these two games are the top selling RE games, and they were never on a Nintendo platform before. Still not live action trailer worthy imo, but Nintendo might disagree.I didn't know that. Makes more sense indeed, yes. I just felt super blue-balled as I expected as least RE7 or Revelation 3 to be, hum, revealed.
I'm still scratching my head trying to figure out what they were doing.One day we really need to find out what happened to Retro the past 5 years.
Does anyone else find it odd that the Direct had two Netflix games shown in it but Netflix keeps refusing to make a Switch app?
Making games and eating BBQ.I'm still scratching my head trying to figure out what they were doing.
Can you remind me which post-E3 reveals we got last year again?Last year, the post E3 reveals were much better than the (very poor) E3 showing. While I do not expect a perfectly similar scaling between both years, there are probably other significant surprises for 2019 which we still haven't heard of. Nintendo seems to be comfortable releasing 3-4 games within one month and that's great.
That E3 was their best direct since the Switch was introduced and it's not even close.
Can you remind me which post-E3 reveals we got last year again?
I see. Yeah, the September Direct definitely was a lot beter than the E3 one last year. I think you're right about at least Wolfenstein (although I believe it did leak as a listing right after the unveiling at E3). Doom Eternal was announced in August iirc, so you're right, there.Warframe, Civilization, Katamari, Into the fucking Breach, and probably others that I'm forgetting. Doom Eternal or Wolfenstein were also confirmed for Switch during July if I recall; during E3, we still didn't know wether they would come to Switch or not. I remember the September direct to be much better than their E3 direct.
Anything could release on switch tbhI still think that Dark Souls 2 will release on Switch before the end of the year, and will be part of the next direct in September or October.
But honestly, even if nothing get's announced between now to February, there will still be games releasing for almost everyone on the system.
Anything could release on switch tbh
It doesnt even have to be in the september direct. There could be a seperate announcement like we saw for diablo 3
I'm still astounded at Nintendo's transformation. They went from a completely tone deaf company in the WiiU era to one that really listens to the fans and give them what they want .
I need to find my image, but I did get stuck under the floor of one of the Boss battles in LM2.
At this point, I'm fully convinced that the Switch won't get anything running on the RE Engine (and while this is purely speculation, I don't think I've ever noticed a game with the RE Engine use dynamic resolution, so that could be why).I didn't know that. Makes more sense indeed, yes. I just felt super blue-balled as I expected as least RE7 or Revelation 3 to be, hum, revealed.
Hopefully they announce a bunch of new Amiibo today (I believe Bill Trinen said in an interview that they would, but not sure).
If they didnt care about gameplay then why are Astral chain, NMH3 or daemon x machina exclusives?Meh, their games no longer have any challenge in them whatsoever. I never felt like I was stuck in LM2 and it took me a handful of tries to beat the "final gauntlet" in Odyssey. Every dungeon and puzzle shrine in Zelda treated you like it was your first. The LM3 Gooigi sections looked like puzzles intended for babies to solve. In the Fire Emblem clips all they show is anime garbage instead of actual gameplay because they know their audience. Animal Crossing is a franchise that has no gameplay whatsoever and was the premier 1st party game they showcased in the Direct. I don't need to explain how much of a joke Kirby and Yoshi games are these days. This is the harsh reality. No, Nintendo is no longer "about gameplay", those times are long gone. The Octo Expansion is the only thing that offers a decent amount of challenge and mechanical involvment. Have people here forgotten about games like Tropical Freeze? Heck, even Nintendo Land felt almost impossible to 100%, but I did it after 120 hours of enduring frustration and it felt so good. Getting Perfect Score in all of the Rhythm Heaven DS minigames was such an incredibly satisfying gameplay experience. That Nintendo is gone, and noone cares.
They showed off Dark Samus, Chrom, Richter and a Link's Awakening amiibo yesterday
Astral chain will be out by then so I hope we see some bayo 3 gameplay.I see. Yeah, the September Direct definitely was a lot beter than the E3 one last year. I think you're right about at least Wolfenstein (although I believe it did leak as a listing right after the unveiling at E3). Doom Eternal was announced in August iirc, so you're right, there.
We'll see how the rest of this year shapes out. We have a ton to look forward to this year as opposed to last year, so that makes things a lot more relaxed.

I'm honestly absolutely baffled, Pokemon sword and shield looks legit bad, uninspired and too similiar. Yet I feel these games don't get the scrutiny every other game gets, we have threads breaking down how a game is garbage because the main characters hair is too dithered, yet there is nothing they are doing in this that seems at all redeemable and yet people are hyped.
I'd be fine if it was not the highest grossing franchise of all time, but its inexcusable at this point. I love love Pokemon, it just bums me out that we are still stuck in the same formula.
Same sounds, same transitions and cameras, same type of formula, graphically/artistically very uninspired, animation very unappealing. I was just hoping for the Breath of the Wild pokemon moment...
I feel like I'm crazy for not being happy with it.
Yesterday they said they'd show FE in the Treehouse the next day. I'll bet we'll see some gameplay just like all the other featured games.Are they going to show FE gameplay? We only saw anime cutscenes

I truly believe BOTW 2 and Bayonetta 3 will be 2020 games. Pikmin 4 is vaporware until they show it. Metroid Prime 4 is 2021 at least.So does this mean that in 2021 we are gonna have Metroid Prime 4, BOTW2, Bayonetta 3 and Pikmin 4?
guys I know it's a stupid question but is Animal Crossing new horizons a game of the main series? has this been confirmed? Because I heard someone who thinks otherwise
It's absolutely a mainline release.guys I know it's a stupid question but is Animal Crossing new horizons a game of the main series? has this been confirmed? Because I heard someone who thinks otherwise
Is this the place to complain about the lack of Retro and Pikmin for yet another year?
Are Retro just flushing years of work down the toilet and focusing on Prime 4?
And where's my god damn Pikmin 3 port you cowards!?
Never was a fan of his. Why was it terrible?
Ok thanks :). I was absolutely sure of it too. Except that someone had questioned me hahaha
In most cases I am not one to turn down additional/better features in a game. However what you're suggesting clearly isn't something the developer or the fanbase holds in high regard since it hasn't happened and the games are still selling like crazy.So at the very least though, would good visuals, sound and animation ruin that in anyway? Even at the most basic of levels?
Just cannot understand how they seemingly get a free pass, where if it was any other title there would be a petition by now for them to fix it.
And my apologies if I sound like I'm descrediting peoples happiness, I guess I'm legitimately etly trying to understand.
He seemed tired and disinterested. Said there were barely any big reveals.
