Yeah, I think the game/film year naming scheme is tacky and reminds me of all the terrible reboots like Total Recall 2013 for example.

love him regardless tbh he's a great reporter and even better twitter user lmao
That's not true at all. Death rate so far has been the same or even lower. The problem lies on the amount of confirmed cases. In a country like Italy only the very ill get tested, while many others are probably infected and will course the virus without any or very mild symptoms. Hence why the death rate seems very high.
However in countries like Germany or Norway, the death rate is very low, even lower than some of the normal flu viruses. And that's because anyone in Germany can be tested if they request it. And I'd imagine that not all of those infected without symptoms actually go and get tested in Germany, so the death rate is even lower.
There are around 60 thousand deaths per year in the USA only due to influenza/flu according to the CDC and no one says anything about it.
And BTW I'm not denying it's a dangerous virus, it is for the vulnerable groups like very old people (average age of the dead ones is 80 years) and for those with preexisting health conditions. But it will go through as mild to asymptomatic in the vast majority of people, just like flu does.
Lastly, common flu is far more lethal on young people than this virus, don't alarm everyone.
Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Mode was just rated for unknown platforms in Korea.
This could be a nice Direct shadowdrop but personally I do not like that it's only the campaign.
NateDrake is this the Call of Duty game coming to Switch you were talking about last year?

It's ok to reassure people, but don't forget that without the right measures, it will still bring a country's health care system to its knees. Many more infected people need hospitalisation than in a common flu season.
Completely agree, taking the right steps to avoid the propagation is what needs to be done. However alarming the population can be more.harming than keeping things calmed and the public informed.
It should be forbidden for games that are not on Switch to interact with those on Switch.
Square, get off your ass and port the game to Switch already. Everybody wants it, fans, Switch owners, Yoko taro and Platinum. You're the only problem.
The death rate is estimated to be 1 or 2 percent. This is not the flu. It's worse and you are the one who seems to be spreading wrong information. Did you ever see the common flu create huge lockdowns? This virus directly targets the lungs and is in fact more dangerous than the flu.
I'll take this as confirmation of a Nier: Automata Switch reveal next Thursday in the Direct and if it doesn't appear I'll have some very strongly worded posts for this thread.
But this thread is innocent! It's on SQEX!
Don't be mean to the thread now that it's one of the few not-insane ones. ;_;
I had zero intention of ever getting AC, couldn't care less about it and never followed any of the teasers or trailers and well... I picked it up on release day. Well played Nintendo, well played...
This is a videogame topic, ffs please stop.
We don't usually quarantine for the flu do we ? So yes it's slightly dangerous and no it's not a death sentence to have it, the vast majority can and will recover, even those who are 'at risk' can recover fully, also a lot of treatments are promising AND the first human trial for a vaccine started ! See the positive side ffs. Follow procedure, have fun as much as you can during those tough times, and bickering and politicizing the issue we'll get you NOWHERE.
Now, because I can't just think of ONE virus the whole day when I'm quarantined (france), let's hope that direct is indeed next week !
I know there are tons of lists and wishful thinking
- Xenoblade DE
- Bravely Default 2
- Super Mario 3D world
- Paper Mario
- wii u port 2 ?
- Nier please please
- Kingdom Hearts collection, this is by far something I really wish I had in portable format, we have it now on Xbox so no more PS exclusivity here
- Wind Waker...never finished it and would be just amazing on the Switch
- New IP
- BOTW, MP4 and Bayo that's E3 territory for me 99% we won't see them
I'm too absorbed by Fire Emblem to start AC:NH haha, that fire emblem is SO FREAKING GOOD.
Early death rates are insignificant when a large parte of the population is.infected without.knowing it.
Besides, Italy has officially reported than more than 99% of the reported deaths come from old people with preexisting health conditions.
That's official.
Germany has a death rate of 0.25%. That's official and that's the country where more tests are conducted BY FAR.
Edit: Sorry moving on from this.
Not itching, just saying they were open to it, but that people should ask S-E for it.
I could really use an N64 announcement for NSO. Like I feel like playing those classics all over again without having to go and fetch my N64 (in fact I can't since all population is in a total quarantine here in Argentina and the console is like 20 blocks away from me) or without having to undust my WiiU

I'm not going to go on about the virus but being worried is a good reaction to this type of situation. No one should panic but a healthy dose of worrying will keep you and everyone you love around you more safe.
now back to videogames, Nier Automata is my most wanted port. And a 2020 date for botw would make it an excellent year for me. I think this year will be port heavy but I missed on so many PS4 games the last 3 years that I wouldn't mind some of the ports.
J*der, sí, me haría feliz la 64, y más cuando no la tuve.
Sorry to the rest of the thread for posting in spanish
Una consola fantástica, sin dudas y yo la tuve mucho más tarde cuando ya estaban Wii y PS3 en el mercado, pero valió la pena.
Be safe!
You'll get Game Boy classics this year (not even Advance, just Gameboy), and you'll like it!
Why utter that accursed name, you shall rain down calamity on us with such poisonous words?!
That and Doom Eternal are my most anticipated games of the year currently. By far.

Just after Switch was revealed, Square-enix stated that they see Switch differently from other platforms and would create a different lineup. They did, their whole lineup had been traditional and nostalgia themed. I mean, even Dragon Quest XI, which was a special request from late Iwata, has nostalgic aspects to it.
So far they haven't released any modern games on the console. Remakes, remasters or RPG's with traditional gameplay & visuals (like Bravely Default). No last gen ports (there's Last Remnant though), no current gen ports (DQ11 most likely funded by Nintendo), absolutely zilch from Eidos. If Nier Automata really happens on Nintendo, it's gonna be a first.
Suda51 killed all my hype for NMH3 when he revealed the gameplay would be motion control focused. As a Lite owner, if the button gameplay feel like second thought, I'm out.
Look, if it gives us Switch-exclusive remakes of Final Fantasy V and VI developed by the Bravely/Octopath team, I'll be okay with it.
It's best to expect the worst from Square-enix. FF5-6 remakes make super sense (though I'd want them looking similar to Trials of Mana. Prerendered popup book backgrounds are not my thing) but they'll probably remake FF3 for a second time, aka the worst FF.
I'm sure it's just a coincidence, but I can't help noticing...

A) I don't believe we have ever had an announcement tease like this actually coincide with a Direct, like ever
B) the Direct should be on March 26th if it's next week
he did? huh pretty weird, interesthing how this is gonna turn out, motion control gamming hasn't been a thing for many years. kind of nostalgic.
By the way, Animal Crossing: NH is the ultimate example of how the fact that we don't know much about a game close to its release is absolutely not an indicator of the amount of content or features. Game is packed with polish and features despite us knowing next to nothing just a month ago.
I thought Sega were going to have their own direct sometime this month. It might be related to that.I'm sure it's just a coincidence, but I can't help noticing...

WHAT IF THEY ANNOUNCE YAKUZA ON SWITCH I WOULD LITERALLY* DIE
