Honestly there was a small feeling in my gut that this is the answer, but I refuse to let myself get hurt.
Yep. It makes this place more fun instead of us getting on each other due to frustration.
you're right. Nobody will ever ask for Odama including Nintendo.
oh boi if this means we could see the other Ys games and possibly the Trails in the Sky Series it would be awesome.
Ys Origin - Nintendo Switch announcement
Ys Origin is now available on the Nintendo eShop for $19.99! Nintendo US: https://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/ys-origin-switch/ Nintendo Europe: https://ww...youtu.be
Dunno, does XSEED own the translation of the other Trails games? Because if that's the case, even if Falcom does license them out to other devs, they would have to redo the translation ...
Which might not be a problem for an old game like Ys Origins, but for the Trails games? Boy that's a task.
I had a dream about a July direct. Pikmin 3 was shown. The big changes mostly consisted of a mode where you can collect items around the levels and then you can use pikmin to help move them around to decorate your ship. Then they showed this trailer of characters like Mario and Yoshi throwing paint at each other. This was just for a special line of Amiibo where the characters are mostly colorless but they have their colors in paint splattered around them (think Splatoon amiibo.) Then lastly there was a trailer that started with a sideways view of F-zero racers driving on a track. "Oh cool a new F-zero. That will make people happy." The camera shifts to a frontal view and you see that it's actually the F-zero stuff from MK8 and that this is just a trailer highlighting small QOL improvements. That was the direct.
It's quite different to Ys 8 overall imo. While it's also an ARPG, it has its focus set on dungeon crawling, some light puzzling/platforming and less elaborate fighting mechanics. You still fight a lot, though. It's simpler and more straight forward. It's a good entry point in my eyes.
I've been telling you guys about Yabuki's FPS for close to a year now but you wanna ignore the truth.
great news! hopefully the rest of the Ys games will come too.Ys Origin - Nintendo Switch announcement

This is a great point. Nintendo are making a lot of money now, but I really think they're underinvesting.
Microsoft are buying studios. So are Sony. WB games are going. There's a lot of consolidation going on in general, and I just can't see Nintendo keeping up a decent schedule when the Wii U ports are no longer an option. They just don't have the manpower.
I get that Nintendo don't mode themselves on Microsoft or Sony, they want to be Disney. But Disney bought Marvel and Power Rangers and Star Wars. They expanded their IP catalogue in a way I really think Nintendo should do.
Is it called Spladoom?
Nintendo doesn't need more IPs, they can start doing something with those that they have and don't use as of now. Buying studios is also always double-edged, because the people might just leave and you end up with a name.
What they should do more is definitely collabs like with Astral Chain, and licensing out their IPs for exclusives like with Mario & Rabbids.
What's the opposite of ignoring? I've been on that train since you first mentioned it.
Meh, you had the chance to write: Return to Castle Star-Wolfenstein ... and you didn't.
._.
Silly me. I was excited to finaly get the much hyped Cross Code on Switch and now I read that the framerate is crap.
I'm pretty sure we saw that bird before in the previous video.
Strong disagree. I think they need IP they can leverage in different media. The reason they've got loads they don't use is because those IPs are mostly game based. Nintendo is clearly moving in the direction where they can do more then just games (the mario film and theme park are the first signs of this). They're just a very cautious company so are doing it slowly.
I think it's the real reason we probably won't see another F Zero. The anime didn't take off and maybe they feel the IP is not distinctive enough. It's the reason they'll keep going back to the Star Fox well. The games don't really matter. They're almost like a byproduct.
One thing Nintendo has been doing lately that I've liked is putting developer names/faces forward in a more public fashion. Ten years ago, you knew Miyamoto, Iwata, Kondo, Yokoi, and maybe you knew Aonuma or Tezuka. But now you know Nintendo faces up and down the organization. New IP called ARMS? Here's Kosuke Yabuki, the producer! Wanna talk Animal Crossing? Here's Aya Kyogoku! Mario? Here's Koizumi! Getting more and more names and faces out there really humanizes the usually secretive company, at least in my eyes.
sigh, happens too often with switch ports. even games you expect to run well on switch :(
yeah, it's been a great shift. hope to see more of it. they did it with luigi's mansion 3 as well, featuring devs from next level in the presentations and interviews.
Nah, I really disagree with this. Nintendo's core business is gaming and the major purpose of expanding their IPs out of gaming is to use those same IPs that people see in theaters or theme parks to draw people to their core gaming products. They've reiterated this time and time again, that's the main goal of their expansion.
What they need to combat industry consolidation isn't buying up more existing studios, it's simply hiring more developers and more talent. Which they're currently doing (they've been adding hundreds of new employees every year), though not necessarily to the extent needed. They could certainly stand to open up some new studios in regions outside of Japan too but buying up existing studios really isn't their best bet.
Especially when, in the case of WB, you're not even getting the IPs with the studios.
Like wait till later today kind of wait or wait a few days kind of wait?
so.... will it be a nintendo direct... or a mini direct/direct that focuses on just one game?Don't take the date of 16th as "sure", it'll be around
Great, I'll be expecting a range from the 13th-22nd honestly. No way it happens on Xbox's day. Thanks!Don't take the date of 16th as "sure", it'll be around
Side note, I NEED Paper Mario previews to tide me over. Really hope they're tomorrow or Friday at the latest
