StarFox with re-worked controls and a bit of extra development time could be interesting.

1000% agree and add in 3 v 3 online multiplayer. This game would do very very well.

Portable Tropical Freeze and Bayonetta is all I ask.

I think DKC will be on Switch. I think it is a no brainer. But I wonder if they bundle both DKC:Returns hd, plus DKC:TF.

Monster games could do the hd port of DKC:Returns. Since they worked on tropical freeze. They should be able to handle porting over to hd easily.

 

[Zoon]

Maybe WW+TP HD for 2018 and OOT+MM HD for 2019? 2020 for new Zelda.
There's also SS but unless they make it playable without motion controls, I don't see it happening.

Monster Games should port their two Excite-games from the Wii instead, Nintendo needs more racers on their system!

That would be smart.

 

[Shiggy]

Why haven't I thought of this?

Call it Fire Emblem Fates: Complete.

Yeah, I can see this happening.

So much value and content on one cartridge. Damn.

I think I already own that on my 3DS huh.

 

[Pachimari]

All I want for now is for the new Game Informer issue to release with new details on Breath of the Wild.

Why port? Make a new one.

I thought the Switch was rumored to have motion controls?

EDIT: guess I confused it with the IR pointer. never mind.

Well, that would be even better!

But it is supposed to have motion controls.

 

[Zoon]

It is but still it won't be playable in portable mode. You'd have to remove the joy cons and play from a distance.

 

[Neoxon]

I had the weirdest dream that Nintendo accidentally uploaded all of the trailers for the January 12th event publicly to YouTube.

 

[Bidermaier]

I would like to see Shin'en working on a Nintendo game, F Zero or Star Fox are the obvious choices.

this is what I get for only reading the quote on the OP and not clicking the link.

Maybe you could use the touch screen instead? Probably not an ideal way to play but it could work

 

[WhiteWaterM00se]

Honestly if you ported the other Zeldas you wouldn't even need to make a new Zelda this Gen.

Based on what you all theorized:
2017: zelda BoTW
Early 2018: Twilight princess hd + Wind Waker HD bundle
Late 2018: Hyrule Warriors 2
2019: MM 3DS HD remake + ocarina of time 3ds hd remake bundle.
2020: zelda 2 remade as a Souls game.
2020: Top down Zelda remake

Well, it happened with Hyrule Warriors Legends before their E3 conference.

I need my zeldas, ports are only stop gaps

Zelda Souls would be cool, but why not make it a new game then?

IIRC, LKD mentioned SS HD already.

 

[LordKano]

Nope, she didn't.

 

[Dark Cloud]

So many posts about port this game and port that game. Idc for all these ports. New games new Zeldas new F-Zero and Wave Race please.

 

[STGHMAAV]

I hope there's only a Skyward Sword HD as a Zelda port/remaster/remake on the Switch and nothing more, now Zelda have, as I called it, the Star Wars effect, releasing a new Zelda used to be a great event, hyped by all, I'm not saying that BotW isn't hyped, but having almost a Zelda port/remaster/remake each year since Ocarina of Time 3D, my hype has gone down for the franchise.

You know you wouldn't be required to buy them all, right?

I'm down for getting as much of the back catalog onto the platform as possible.

 

[STGHMAAV]

Yeah I know, and I have them all and I'm super-hyped for BotW, but listening every single year about Zelda, doesn't help a lot.

I dont get this. Personally I havent bought any of these remakes since I owned them all before, and didnt get Hyrule Warriors because Musou, so for me this is that big Star Wars moment of first Zelda since Skyward Sword - and that makes me incredibly hyped!

 

[Plinko]

Nope, she didn't.

I'm fairly certain LKD or Emily did at one point. May have been just guesses at the time and not news, though.

 

[TEJ]

If bayonetta 3 is announced for the switch at the thing next week i'm preordering asap.

Hell, Vanquish 2 would make me preorder as well. DKCR3 would be beautiful as well.

 

[MouldyK]

Has anyone in the UK got their invites for the London Hands-On?

I want confirmation that I missed out so I can cry in peace.

 

[Peru]

Tons of stores here in Norway taking pre-orders so I just gambled on one of them. Will check in with them a little later to see if they expect enough units to send me one at launch. I know I can cancel but I don't want to pre-order on all of them either.

Lkd said not to expect any platinum announcement next week sadly...

Really? I wasnt aware of this at all. Which store did you get the preorder from?

I believe some people were talking about it yesterday, so it sounds like they have been sent out.

Just means that they will be showcasing a collaboration with another japanese developer

Yeah they have been sent out although a lot of us haven't had a confirmation email after registering our details and day/time slot which is a little annoying.

My friend still hasn't received confirmation about our slot on the Saturday morning.

Yep they sent them. The deadline was 19 December for the email entry version.

 

[doop_]

I was gonna give mine away but no one replied.

 

[TheOnlyOneHeEverFeared]

Is it still available?

 

[Peru]

netonnet.no

Several alternatives https://www.prisguide.no/produkt/nintendo-switch-254023

Hard to say which is best positioned for getting a lot of units.

 

[HandsomeCharles]

I haven't received any email confirmation either. All the details were listed on a page after you entered your details. If you need the deets, they are as follows:

Venue: Eventim Apollo
Registration time: 30 mins before your session was set to begin (e.g 12.30 for the 1pm session)
Bring Photo ID

At the Wii U-launch, I just walked into Expert and picked up a console, so I doubt there will be shortages here considering how Sony dominated everything in Norway. But thanks!

True. But the NES Mini was hell to get (and also the Wii)

[Angry Chair]

I have Metroid hunger! I need a new Metroid!

Hope we get some news next week. At least a hint for E3.

I don't understand why people still want a new Metroid. Most people gave FF no chance (I'm not saying it's good because I didn't give it a chance either), MOM was a complete disaster, and I have even seen people on GAF hate on Prime 2 and 3. Complete indifference or KingBroly's endless fountain of pessimism are more rational responses than excitement.

Also, unless plans have changed due to FF bombing, it is going to be centered around Sylux which I know most people here don't want.

Spoiler

This is common sense not insider knowledge.

I sent them an email asking them to reconfirm and verify everything, but my guess is that they will have been out of the office over christmas (And Nintendo UK is normally a bit slow to respond anyway).

I'd imagine all will be well though

Deets

The Wii wasnt hard here in Bergen, but yeah, the Nes Mini was terribly undershipped here and everywhere else.
