I was just giving the man what he wanted. Pikmin 4 I have no stake in the rumor.That is as fake as it can be when we all know that SFV is a PS4 exclusive game
That's way too good to be true.
. I would, however, predict a Direct soon. That's just my wild guess, I have nothing that backs that up.
Soo..
God I wish...
That's such a Nintendo move to make...lol @ Nintendo announcing they will discontinue the 3DS mid-Direct
And there you also have a good explanation for why so many Switch games (say, Skyrim) hold their price.Normally it is the retailer cut which is the more important (25%). I'll use the numbers Ubisoft gave us to do the math :
https://www.resetera.com/threads/ub...y-ms-nintendo-take-12-in-cogs-per-game.22783/
The idea is that for 8Gb carts or smaller, Nintendo is charging about the same as Sony/MS.
Now let's take the 32Gb carts with the assumption that Nintendo charges 25$ by units. It is a big game so they decide to ship 1m copies day one.
Scenario 1 : they sell every single copy at full price
The best case scenario - profit = 20m€
Scenario 2 : They sell 75% of the overall shipment at full price
Medium case scenario - profits = 8.8m€
Scenario 3 : They sell 50% of the overall shipment at full price
Worst case scenario - profits = -2.5m€
Since you have to pay the fee for every copy you manufacture, your profit is very depend on your ability to sell those copies at full-price. It is a huge risk with little pay-off because if your underestimate the demand you'll need a lot of time to have a second shipment and momentum could fade away in the meantime.
Excellent point."The Direct begins with a big announcement: Super Mario Maker 2.0."
The day before New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe releases on Switch.
Sure.
It was posted (presumably) as kind of a joke.
Excellent point.
This is why, by the way, I was highly skeptical of a MPT reveal at The Game Awards. Nintendo practically never announces something until one of their heavily promoted titles is released and in a lot of cases has been in the wild for a few weeks.
I don't suspect well hear about a Direct until after NSMBUD releases.

I'm quite disappointed people actually clicked on it and read it and then commented on it. What a waste of time.

I can see that... although, it's hard to see Nintendo asking Disney for anything. Then the hole gets deeper when you include spirits n what not. Hope it happens for y'all smash players.God I wish...
If something KH comes to Switch, we'll see Sora for Smash announced before that.
I clicked, read and commented. Then I took a shower..I'm ahead of y'all, I didn't click on it, didn't read it and still commented on it!
Sora couldn't get in to Dissidia because Disney didn't want to see him in a fighting game. That was a nearly a decade ago so things could have changed, but it could still be an issue.I can see that... although, it's hard to see Nintendo asking Disney for anything.

Wow, I didn't know that. Things could've changed, but I doubt it. On the other hand, there's Mario. If he can be in a fighting game so can Sora.Sora couldn't get in to Dissidia because Disney didn't want to see him in a fighting game.

Iirc, he's a Disney property. Dont think there's any original FF characters in 3. We'll see tho.
Poor Kamiya will never work on a sequel.Ehoavash mentionned numerous times that it was going to be Kamita's new IP. It will probably be something quite unique.
Didn't we have that one Direct in 2015 that got leaked by a photo of a Monitor with folders for each game in the Direct ?Honestly, any "leaks" that are presented as an outline or transcript of an upcoming Direct should be treated as fan fiction instead of as rumors. They're always bullshit. Last year we had a Direct that was delayed a full week and still only individual announcements leaked, rather than the full Direct.
I'm sure that leak's fake. That said, there's a 16 gig last-gen version of a GTA V that a Switch port would be much closer to. The problems with a GTA Switch port are:
-Who would do it? (There's probably more hands free now that RDR2 has shipped)
-How do you price it? (The game's dirt cheap elsewhere at this point, but that didn't stop Skyrim and Doom)
-The last-gen version doesn't get new GTA online content anymore, which is a huge money maker for them. What would they do about that?
I think these are all solvable issues, but I could understand if they chose not to port it.
W101 will probably be ported. That W101 picture he posted might have been in relation to this new projectPoor Kamiya will never work on a sequel.
Hopefully critics and players appreciate it more than TW101, what a shame, that was his best game imo.
People should be smarter than this but they're not. If anyone's wondering why I keep "yelling" at them in here over stuff like that, seeing this circle repeat itself again and again over the years is why :DHonestly, any "leaks" that are presented as an outline or transcript of an upcoming Direct should be treated as fan fiction instead of as rumors.

It is precisely for discussing them. Just only the ones that aren't obviously made up by some troll, as per the guidelines in the OP. :)Guys, this thread is for reporting and archiving rumours; it's not for discussing them.
Yes, like a day before, from some asshat taking advantage of NOE(?) fucking up or something. Never weeks in advance, never by some rando on a forum.Didn't we have that one Direct in 2015 that got leaked by a photo of a Monitor with folders for each game in the Direct ?
I was an active part of that leak. Let's just say that the objective of whoever made that photo wasn't to turn it into an internet leak. However, it ended up in the hands of journalists (the website I was writing for back then) and it was picked up by other (international) websites and outlets from there.Yes, like a day before, from some asshat taking advantage of NOE(?) fucking up or something.
