I guess I will have to wait a few years until the games that I really want comes out on NSW2.

Mario Kart etc. is ok but not really what I am after.

It may take until 2030 to get a new Zelda, that would be a bummer.

 

[GrandlyBodacious]

These will all come and probably much sooner than 2030.

 

[NanaMiku]

Yeah, compared to the Switch presentation, it had Xenoblade 2 and Fire Emblem Warriors

 

[touchfuzzy]

Tears of the Kingdom came out two years ago, were you expecting a new flagship game in the franchise that fast?

 

[nial]

What? You think Nintendo and its partners don't go through the same long ass development cycles as everyone else?

 

[Arsic]

I'm happy to get 60fps totk that uses my save file.

I would've been blown away if there was a Zelda 64 remake on the horizon.

 

[blacktout]

They haven't even unveiled their full first party lineup for this year yet. Their latest dated game is in July.

Not that I expect any of the games you listed this year, but the long-rumored Fire Emblem remake and Monolith's new game (probably a new IP rather than Xenoblade) could easily drop next year, since both have apparently been in development for quite a while.

 

[Deerock71]

Xenoblade Chronicles X just came out like...3 weeks ago. Grab it, it's BRILLIANT!

 

[SimTourist]

You got Zelda Dynasty Warriors, be happy

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

Xenoblade Chronicles X just came out like...3 weeks ago. Grab it, it's BRILLIANT!

Yeah, but let's not pretend like the game isn't 9+ years old.

 

[The Lunch Legend]

This 100%.

Cool your tits and have some patience, OP.

 

[Deerock71]

Yeah, but let's not pretend like the game isn't 9+ years old.

Brand new to me. I apparently just let my 8 year old (at the time) play it. I don't remember anything about the game itself, and the battle system is a blast.

 

[Jinzo Prime]

Some game announcements are being held back for the Treehouse and future events. Also, Nintendo sits on finished games until they need them, so the next Monolith Soft game could be damn near done by now, but Big N is holding it back.

I remember Monolith Soft having Xenoblade 3 done months before it launched, so Nintendo was able to switch its release date with Zelda TOTK, which needed a bit more polish.

 

[Robb]

There was plenty of Zelda though. One Switch 2 Edition of BotW/TotK and a whole new Warriors game on top of that.

Mainline Zelda was never on the table.

 

[Jinzo Prime]

I would've been blown away if there was a Zelda 64 remake on the horizon.

This was the game I was kind of expecting, shame on me. Maybe next year?

 

[Deerock71]

There was plenty of Zelda though. One Switch 2 Edition of BotW/TotK and a while new Warriors game on top of that.

Mainline Zelda was never on the table.

I WAS hoping for Wind Waker HD, but instead we get it through GameCube emulation.

 

[Ritsumei2020]

Xenoblade Chronicles X just came out like...3 weeks ago. Grab it, it's BRILLIANT!

I replayed the WiiU version not too long ago, I love the game but too early in my mind to play it again!

 

[Danjin44]

Yeah, but let's not pretend like the game isn't 9+ years old.

So? Monolith Soft put LOT OF improvements and add new story chapter and still doesn't change the fact the game is so fucking good.

I have 100% trust on Monolith Soft to release killer game on Switch 2......let them cook.

 

[Robb]

I WAS hoping for Wind Waker HD, but instead we get it through GameCube emulation.

Oh, right. We got Wind Waker here as well.

I'd say this presentation was fairly Zelda-heavy.

 

[Thabass]

You literally got a new Hyrule Warriors. I swear gamers are never happy.

 

[Ritsumei2020]

You literally got a new Hyrule Warriors. I swear gamers are never happy.

I know, its just that those types of games are not my cup of tea. I love BOTW/TOTK and cant wait for the next proper Zelda.

 

[HYDE]

I WAS hoping for Wind Waker HD, but instead we get it through GameCube emulation.

I so hope that we still receive the HD versions of TP & WW at some point.

 

[Liopleurodon]

They also haven't announced TLOU at the start of PS3 era.

 

[MagiusNecros]

I have 100% trust on Monolith Soft to release killer game on Switch 2......let them cook.

Monolithsoft x Tecmo Koei

Xeno Warriors let's go!

 

[Hyet]

They are dripfeeding games like they usually do. We'll get more details on the currently annouced tirles on summer and a few bread crumbs for Next year as well. But they rarely announce anything that is relasing in more than 8 months.

 

[Danjin44]

Monolithsoft x Tecmo Koei

Xeno Warriors let's go!

Watch giga chad Rex killing everything on site.

 

[NanaMiku]

Monolithsoft x Tecmo Koei

Xeno Warriors let's go!

I will hate that lol. I don't like Warriors game.

I prefer they made something like Project X Zone but all Xeno characters

 

[MagiusNecros]

When you clear all objectives and are clearing the map XB3 Chain Attack starts to play

 

[NeoIkaruGAF]

Yeah, compared to the Switch presentation, it had Xenoblade 2 and Fire Emblem Warriors

Xenoblade 1 released in Japan in 2010. At the time of the OG Switch presentation, Xenoblade 2 was at least five years in the making. These things, they take time.
Also, it was a very niche IP that had barely released in the US thanks to popular request. Let's not rewrite history and fool ourselves into thinking it was already a firm reason to get a Switch in 2017.

What did people expect? For Nintendo to reveal a two-year lineup when unveiling a new system? People seem to have forgotten how barren the OG Switch release window actually was. Apart from Zelda, it had Snipperclips, 1-2 Switch, and a port of fucking Street Fighter II.

 

[Danjin44]

And bring back combo announcer from Xenoblade 2.

 

[Oberstein]

A Xenoblade was released just 15 days ago... It was obvious that he wasn't going to present anything. Now it's true that there's no real new JRPG in the bunch....

 

[ProtoByte]

What? You think Nintendo and its partners don't go through the same long ass development cycles as everyone else?

Someone's going to have to explain why that is. I was told long dev times was all about grafixx.

Mario Kart etc. is ok but not really what I am after.

Not really, Nintendo didn't show any of their Q4 titles (aside from Metroid which is not a Switch 2 game), there should be a direct in June that will show at least 3D Mario for the end of the year, I am not saying we will get Zelda but we might get a Fire Emblem reveal so don't get that bummed yet.

Doubt it. Will be getting nee Zelda games sooner than you think.

 

[Evil Calvin]

That was an asset flip game.....DLC

 

[ADiTAR]

You'll play a new Xeonblade and Fire Emblem before Intergalatic.

It's obvious they saved their games for later, they have Directs and now Nintendo Today. They are changing the way they communicate news.

 

[Ritsumei2020]

Doubt it. Will be getting nee Zelda games sooner than you think.

Hey I hope so! I mean I have plenty of games to play in my backlog, but thinking that we may have to wait another 5 years for a big Zelda adventure makes me sad.

I hope a new Xenoblade will hit next year. Ah well…

 

[RoboFu]

You want a yearly Zelda? lol they showed a new Zelda dynasty warriors.

 

[Ritsumei2020]

You want a yearly Zelda? lol they showed a new Zelda dynasty warriors.

Sure. And I hope its a good game.

But my experience with those dynasty warriors type of games has been terrible in the past.

Edit: now if it was a Zelda tactical RPG, I would be interested lol

 

[Arachnid]

Tears of the Kingdom came out two years ago, were you expecting a new flagship game in the franchise that fast?

Same with Fire Emblem Engage, which was mid compared to Three Houses, so whatever.

Still, this is a major console release. Cant fault the guy for expecting a system selling flagship series or three to put out.
