and since the switch isnt reigon locked, the japanese version will be available

unless they uncensor it

that'd be a sight to see, tbh

They'll probably reveal whether it's true or not tomorrow in the Direct, if I had to guess.

if there is a he fates actually happening I will pee my pants

I'm gonna get it for HD Camilla and HD Hinoka.

okay i'm down for that

daddy sakurai thank u for the FE representation in smash and thus lots more FE demand

Well now that's interesting. Rather hope they uncensor the English version this time (I can dream right? ;~. This, FE:W & Xenoblade 2 are actually tempting to buy a Switch at some point.

Am I the only one who thinks the Switch might be a similar deal as with the PS4 or 3DS?
In that it starts off slowly at launch but overtime but the first year turns out to be good overall?
Well, that's what I'm hoping for at least.

I have no idea if I should get a black joy con switch or a red or blue one

For any Fire Emblem fans out there they just announced a new traditional game on the 3DS for march (has a specific date I can't remember), a new traditional game on the switch sometime in 2018, Fire Emblem Warriors this Fall and the new mobile game Fire Emblem Heroes

(Makes me wonder if there will be other "Echoes" titles, perhaps including remakes of other old FE games and ones that never came to the West?)

I would be 100% on board with this.

In a interview, the producer of the infamous Senran Kagura series said that he has interest to work with the HD Rumble to express "softness" and "touch sensation".

Now this console will sell.

Huh, well how would pieces of plastic be able to convey "softness"? I mean what kind of game is-

No backwards compatibility with older consoles on the Switch

I ran out of expressions with the last bits of stupid news so I'll just settle for "lol".


Seriously, I've seen no reason to get a Switch on launch whatsoever. Maybe once Odyssey is out and hopefully some price drops and tweaks, but now? Hell no.

I think very few people should get this on launch. Most games releasing by now are enchanced ports or are available on another console. Plus we would have the common problems we see on every console's launch. Low online activity due to low user base, lots of possible bugs, few games, it goes on. I would personally wait for a price drop and more games.

You mean the fact that they were using cartridges for it didn't automatically tip people off?

Considering the amount of acessories and how much they expect you to use other stuff while playing, I was hoping there'd be some method. But it wasn't make it or break it for me on that regard, but again, they're giving no reason for you to buy this on launch instead of being comfy with your WiiU for a while longer(other than no first party games).

I... hate to admit it, but I do actually agree that it's not worth getting on launch. I was actually planning on getting it in April the earliest, 'cause then I'd also have Mario Kart and (possibly) Yooka-Laylee alongside whatever else I want to get.

If I wasn't going to get a Wii U first, I would wait for the start of 2018 or at least the end of 2017 to get the Switch.

Switch gameplay of Shovel Knight: Specter of Torment. Nothing much, but yeah...

Still not sure what the deal with Shovel Knight is. Is it that you can buy the three games separately or in a bundle together?

As I recall I'm pretty sure it took me until Mario Kart 8 to actually buy a Wii U... and right now it doesn't look like I'll be getting a Switch sooner after its launch. Besides, I've gotta save for PAX East. <.<;

wait, shovel knight's gonna be on this?

always wanted to play that!

I think Im just going to wait until Splatoon 2 comes out to get a Switch. Im positive there'll be some sort of bundle with the game and that also gives me more time to save up the money necessary.

You guys have made me realize Im better off waiting on a Switch anyways. Thanks everyone. Now to pre-order the Wii U version of Breath of the Wild.

If you buy the game now, you still have the entire package. Later, you'll be able to buy the base game or the DLCs.as standalone, hence why the base game now looks like the rest. Full game also will get a price increase after April.

So wait, is there like someplace I have to order this entire package then?

No, just buy the regular game. It'll turn into Treasure Trove after the changes.

Oh. Well, that I did do. (Even though my memory for it has been screwed over)

So then do I need like a proof of purchase or something?

From what the blog post said, I don't think you need any, probably the game name will just change to that and they'll list the DLCs and Shovel of Hope after.

Wait, so the treasure trove is an update for the version of the game you already own? I'm sorry for being so clueless about this.

I just realized that New Donk City in Super Mario Odyssey only has taxis. I hope the final game has more variety of vehicles, it'll be easy to get bored of seeing only one kind of car.

Apparently, the name is nearly complete. I'm assuming they're gonna start polishing things until it goes gold. Hope they fix up the junp roping business women too.

According to Nintendo Poland, there is 5 Battle Modes available in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. They are:

• Balloon Battle
  
• Bomb-Omb Blast
  
• Shine Thief
  
• Coin Rush
  
• Piranha Plant (no official name)

There's also a new Amiibo Suit to use on your Mii unlocked by Splatoon figures.

Im guessing it's the same suit but either in purple, orange, blue, green, depending on the Amiibo used? Unless it just doesnt matter which specific Amiibo...

Also, thats the Inkling Amiibo colors, what about the squids and Callie and Marie?

Usually doesn't matter what amiibo you use but I could see it being a color you choose.

Wonder if the Switch will be demoed at PAX East. I imagine the line would be too ridiculously long for me to even try it out if that were the case... <.>

Guys. According to this, the Switch takes 10 seconds to load a game. TEN WHOLE SECONDS! That's it, I can put up with paid online, expensive accessories, even the NES/SNES rental deal, but THIS is the straw that breaks the camels back, Nintendo are scumbags and I am never ever supporting them again!

I'm joking in case you couldn't tell, but I'm pretty sure the article is indeed serious.

I mean if it runs on cartridges it should take on less than a second
