If the Switch gets GTA V, that's it, the system is a guaranteed success.
GTA V still sells gangbusters for some reason, and people will flock to a portable version.
Lincoln Davis
Monster Hunter World.........
Oh wait, that isn't coming to the Switch, is it????
Leo Hill
Monster Hunter went to shit with 4 anyways. No one will be playing it by the time the pc version hits.
Chase Miller
The Switch is literally the greatest system ever made.
Joseph Gutierrez
Why does Miyamoto have such a habit of announcing Pikmin games too fucking early?
Adam Adams
Do you think Nintendo will continue to work with NLG after Federation Force?
Christopher Reyes
Probably, just with much less creative freedom.
I'd say that games's issues could be equally blamed both on NLG and Tanabe.
Robert Rodriguez
Is this the advertising thread? The Blizzard leaker from the other month that's been credible so far said there's a Blizzard port coming to Switch. Safe bet is Diablo 3, unlikely bet is Overwatch.
Gavin Johnson
Overwatch is pretty simple graphics-wise, I could see it happening
Dylan White
GTA V quite honestly has no excuse to not be on Switch so Rockstar better not skip an easy opportunity for money.
Nathan Thompson
I mean, Dark Moon did make gangbusters (5 million) and I hope Koizumi's team could encourage a new one to he more like the original
Jace Gutierrez
is the switch the successor to the 3ds?
by this i mean will there be another portable only system that nintendo puts out to replace it or is the switch the replacement?
Nolan Lee
Nobody is sure yet considering Nintendo refuses to let the 3DS die.
Landon Carter
There's no signs of a new handheld being in development at Nintendo. I think that Nintendo themselves underestimated how well the Switch would do and overestimated how long the 3DS had before it started plummeting. 3DS game sales have fallen off a cliff this year.
Brandon Anderson
USUM is said to be the last 3DS Pokemon game so it might as well be dead.
Dylan Morgan
fuck
i dont want to buy one until i know the answer
Noah Jackson
Seeing as Pokemon is now being released on Switch, it's safe to say that this is their main system going forward.
Elijah Bailey
Only idiots would think they have a 3ds2 up their sleeves. Consoles get games after their successors come out. That's nothing new. Persona 4 came out a year and a half after the PS3.
Logan Wright
And why would they. The thing still makes them money after all.
Carter Rivera
>FROM Source? I'm hoping it's Eternal Darkness
Jose Davis
>3DS game sales have fallen off a cliff this year
Shit like this makes me angry that the Mario Party game got announced for 3DS and not Switch
Michael Morales
It's the only thing he does now. And that's for the best, keeping him confined to other projects is what saved Odyssey from being another New Mario Bros. Now Paper Mario has a chance to return to its former glory, remember that Sticker Star was "only" a Thousand-year door-like paper mario game. Thanks to Miyamoto we now have Sticker Star.
Julian Reyes
>Dividing resources for two systems >Not just focusing it all on a single system that's already portable
Henry Martinez
Just to be safe I'd wager that one platinum game is Bayo 1+2, but what would the other one be? W102? >Unannounced Retro Studios project >Unannounced FROM Software project S O U R C E
Henry Anderson
>2 platinum games
But your source only mentions one
William King
Actually hyped for Doom and Skyrim
Tyler Cruz
>Dividing resources for two systems One would thing they'd be used to it by now.
I think we'll have to wait till next E3 to get an idea on the 3DS' fate.
Not OP Retro has been having a secret Wii U project in the making right before Tropical Freeze released and it probably got moved to the Switch. Hopefully it doesn't end up like Project HAMMER
Isaiah Lopez
Fuck yea. Sure it's 6 years old but it's Skyrim on a fucking tablet. Too hyped for it.
>w-we didnt want it anyway and the cycle is complete
Ryder Diaz
>Platinum
This can't get me excited since their games have like a 50/50 chance of being junk anymore.
>Guy who teased/leaked LA Noire early this year recently teased GTA V
I don't even want to know how massive a download this will demand on top of the cart after what happened with la noire.
Liam Jackson
But it is the special edition, just no mods, which they're being hush hush on for now.
Landon Collins
I'm of the opinion that W101 is the only good game Platinum has ever made. Well, I haven't tried Bayonetta yet but I played MGR and fucking hated it. The whole game was just a series of QTEs tricking you into believing you were doing cool stuff, the combat outside of them was barebones and the vocal OST was shitty.
Oliver Nguyen
Platinum teased Wonderful 101on the Switch with a picture on Twitter
Hunter Johnson
Why couldn't any of this stuff have been shown at their E3? What did they have to gain by keeping their E3 conference down to 25 minutes?
Brandon Evans
but where is mario sports
Leo Lopez
Their track record ever since like vanquish released has been suuuuuper spotty.
anarchy reigns was literally broken garbage. Korra was like a janky half of a game. The TMNT game was junk. Transformers was neat but way too content short for a full price game. Star Fox zero was questionable. Scalebound looked terrible before it was cancelled.
I just can't put much faith in them.
Christian Cooper
By not spilling all their load at once, they can keep people entertained, unlike other companies that showed the same games as last year and made people a little underwhelmed.
They could use the PS3/360 versions of GTA V, I guess. What makes L.A. Noire so big, anyway? Uncompressed audio?
Oliver Gomez
How would anyone be on a board named video games and not have a switch and ALSO something else. Like, were you just not playing video games until the switch came out?
I'm gonna play it in my Xbox. And that'll be the first time I've turned it on in months.
Luis Butler
>GTAV
Not gonna buy it, but it'd be a huge point for the average consumer market. People still lose their shit over GTAV. It should totally be possible too. The game was on the 360 and PS3, and the Switch is more powerful than both consoles, so there are really no excuses.
Jayden Rivera
The facial animation data on that game is apparently huge.
Samuel Gutierrez
It can run, the question is can they make it run without requiring an extra download due to cartridge size/cost limitations.
Andrew Edwards
Bayo 1 + 2 port would have little to do with Platinum directly. What they're working on are new games. I'm betting on Bayo 3 and a new IP. Still reckon we'll get Bayo 1, 2 and w101 ports though.
Nicholas Nelson
branding issue, but it wouldn't surprise me if it was lacking many of the special edition features, Bethesda can't optimize for shit.
Faces were are recorded videos played on the characters face, it's really strange but you should be able to notice it in a video of the game.
That never happened on that show.
Carter Turner
nothing, I don't own a switch and don't plan to
Owen Clark
Wtf
Hunter Scott
>Fifa I know Bowser used to work for EA but does he really think normies will eat up a watered down port made with no effort?
Jose Bell
Of course not, companies want to make money so they won't be going for higher than 8GB carts until the price of production of these comes down to the same price as 8GB carts.
Not necessarily true, Platinum has workers they need to pay so they would take contracts for ports if they came up. how many teams does Plat have currently I think 4.
Kayden Reyes
I wanna know what FROM is. I hope it's not more souls stuff and either a new IP or armored core
Nicholas Foster
It's more than likely a port of Dark Souls 1, nothing special at all.
Dominic Butler
>Unannounced Retro Studios project Didn't everyone and all the talent who worked on the metroid prime series leave retro studio after some japanese higher ups treated them like dirt.
DELETE DELETE THIISSSS DELETE RIGHT NOW SONY ALWAYS WINS BABY WE HAVE ALL THE GAMES
Camden Brown
I thought it was because they didn't want to work on Donkey Kong, I thought it was NST that fell apart after being treated like shit, project HAMMER looked so bad that I think the team got treated accordingly.
Neato.
Someone post that vid with that black guy who was super salty at that.
>why is smt on switch and not ps4 >everyone knows that there is no smt on nintendo >ignoring that 3ds has more smt games than ps4 and vita
Ethan Lopez
oh yeah I believe it, GTA V is a huge success even compared to how big GTA is and a mobile version? fucking EZ money
This is why there's so many dumb sony wojak pics where they're dark as midnight
Connor Cruz
...
Brayden White
i have a good pc (gtx 1060 6gb + i5 7600k + 32gb RAM), a ps2, ps3, and a 3ds
would the switch and the ps4 be good purchases for me?
Juan Thompson
That depends, what do you want to play in those
Jeremiah Green
It's an exclusive Switch Edition. It's probably based on the special edition but with a few Nintendo-centric things thrown in.
Jacob Diaz
for ps4 bloodborne is the main draw but id probably buy most of the exclusives. im hesitant tho because who knows how much longer the platform has
for switch id like to play BOTW and future zelda titles (im a zelda fan through emulation) and im interested in the virtual console if there will be gamecube and wii games on it
Noah Bennett
Holy shit this image actually has a crop from a larger Mario bait image I made. I feel a little proud.
Benjamin Johnson
PS4 should have an 8 year lifecycle, there isn't any guarantee of virtual console or even another Zelda on Switch, Most Sony published titles suck complete ass, but if you enjoy analingus then have fun, there's lots of non Sony published exclusives though.
Christian Hughes
my understanding is that Sticker Star was more due to the guy who directed the first two Paper Mario titles being unavailable so the team just relied on basic Mario imagery.
Joseph Carter
NLG did great work, FF wasn't their fault and they made the best thing they could have with what they were given. Nintendo is not going to punish them for that. Wouldnt even surprise me if they're part of that new Prime 4 team.
Jeremiah Peterson
Same mistake they made with the original DS and Gameboy. I think they'll manage.
Grayson Turner
>PS4 should have an 8 year lifecycle >2021
i dunno man, seems like a long stretch
Benjamin Turner
BotW has universal acclaim, an engine that surely won't go to waste, and on a system selling above and beyond optimistic sale expectations. I think a new Zelda, this time Switch-exclusive, is a given.
Brody Fisher
Well for starters when you say PS4 exclusives, then you have to be more specific here Because a good part of those (or at least the most popular) are 3rd person shooters for some reason, the ones that aren't are okay to good like GR2, Yakuza 0 and Persona 5 to name a few from recent times, but if those don't interest you, avoid. On Switch's case, don't expect a new Zelda until the end of its cycle, and there's no news on VC yet, so if absolutely nothing else on the console interests you, then avoid.
Camden Russell
I'd say the art style and structure was their fault
Luigi's Mansion Dark Moon also got a lot of flack from fans of the original for being too cutesy and linear
Daniel Evans
The new Paper Mario team are going to still take his advice as law unless someone convinces them that people do want story, do want the classic battle system, and do want original characters in Paper Mario games. Hopefully that'll be Koizumi. He hasn't written a fleshed out narrative of any kind in years and he came up with Majora's Mask's story
