I didn't mean in terms of difficulty, but how you lose a big part of the combat system when you don't have to switch based on type or other stuff

Bloomberg: Nintendo targets a record year in Switch games sales, boosted by a series of marquee title and an enhanced revision
- Thread starter Lelouch0612
- Start date
Pokemon has never been hard, we remember it to be ¨harder¨ because ( if we were kids when it first came out) our reading comprehension wasn´t as developed, they didn´t tell you at times where to get the HM, and internet wasn´t big at the time to find the typing of certain Pokemon. The QoL and remover of Hm has made the game a lot easier though. That being said, removing the HM was a good for the series imo.
I'm really not convinced that we're getting BoTW2 this year. I can see it launching march if Pokémon Legends is posponed to the next fiscal year, but if not I think it will be late 2022.
I'm pretty sure they'll release a middle tier game like DK, Metroid, Kirby or Yoshi this year, and another heavy hitter together with BDSM for the holidays (not Zelda though)

User Banned (2 Months): Platform Warring; Long History of Platform Warring
Hopefully this translates to them releasing games that's actually worthy getting a console for.
That will likely be a Switch 2 launch game, maybe cross platform too. I was surprised to see Splatoon 3 coming to Switch, which I expected to be one per generation like Mario Kart.
my guess is they wanted to show BOTW2 closer to the switch revision so they can show it off in the absolute best state. probably is coming in 2021.
I mean, games that ERA think are worthy or the games that are currently releasing and selling like hot cakes?
I can't see that being the case for you if you aren't already interested.
The day after full Switch Pro reveal: "OT - Switch 2 Hardware Speculation"
How do you have that broken down? Evergreen Catalog + 3P Catalog + 1P New Releases + 3P New Releases?
I think >250M can happen if Bloomberg's right about most of the lineup still pending announcement, but I haven't attempted a breakdown yet.
then yes.
if this is a cheeky remark because you don't think Nintendo games are worth the money, no
I mean, there's a ton of those, you not liking them is another thing entirely
Yeah, a $60 mario collection that does nothing but emulate rooms screams value.
We're not pretending that Nintendo only releases stuff like this, right?
You will! Sometime this year, probably October, you will know the full lineup of Nintendo in 2021! :D
Maybe not for you but for the 8 million plus, sure. crazy, how that works.
Sorry, I thought for a moment that i could ask for better offerings from a company trying to sell more than they are right now, but I guess this would be out of place of me, right?
Yeah, you can. All of us are, but going against reality and saying they aren´t worthy for people. That´s just absurd. When the data shows other wise. Which goes with what me and other people said. maybe not for you but a good chunk of people they are releasing awesome stuff.
I would think merely the fact that most of the next year will be with a userbase of 80-100m rather than 50-70 would make a big difference, regardless of how marquee those titles are.
Among all hardware original Game Boy is probably the one with the latest peak, since each of its last 3 or 4 years before GBA was a new high (even before GBC). It is peaking later than PS2, Wii, or PS4, but it hasn't quite reached the point where DS peaked.
This is like saying microtransaction is all that consumers ever wanted because it's the most lucrative endeavor gaming companies ever had. Just because it sells well or it is successful doesn't means it's good.
I don´t want it, but clearly majority want them since they are super successful. T
The proclamation was never that Nintendo would release good titles though. All that was said was they would release software to accelerate total software and hardware sales. One repackaged Mario game will sell more than Xenoblade 2, Fire Emblem 3 Houses and Astral Chain combined. It is a sales thread, the analysis is going to be different.
Me too. Mario Golf, a Skyward Sword port and a Pokemon remake aren't going to feed me.
I'm sure within the hour after half of ERA IS oohhing and awwwing and the other half moaning in disappointment on the Switch Pro reveal, the Switch 2 thread will be lively.
They don't have that many first party hits left though.
Pokemon
Splatoon
Tomodachi
What else?
Metroid and Pikmin are not big sellers.
I think they will release a bunch of casual titles and hope they become a hit like Ring Fit.

People are never going to give up on the fantasy of Nintendo chasing power.
I think they are hoping that the AC crowd buys a lot of games, unlike the Wii Sports crowd. Furukawa has stated that people that bought the Switch for Animal Crossing are buying more games.
If that stays the same, that crowd will be buying a ton of games this year.
Sequels to Mario Kart/Odyssey/Mario Party. A 2D Mario game.

The "they don't have many 1st party left" narrative is nothing new, we heard it since 2018.
To answer your question, for the FY:
- BOTW2
- Pokémon x2
- Mario Kart
- Donkey Kong ?
With Splatoon, 3D Mario, Tomodatchi, Pokémon Gen 9 and a 2D Mario being after April 2022.
There are more collaborations on the way as well. Nintendo has already stated that there are content that they themselves can´t create and they will rely on third parties for that content, whether they are funded by them or just brought by the companies.
Being 4-5 years less behind on a machine released 4-5 years later doesn't require much of a chase.

Yep, Monster Hunter ans the upcoming Resident Evil Outrage are signs of that.
Nintendo should get plenty of content from its Japanese partners.
Bravely Default 2, project triangle and the Dc Super hero girs are another example, sure they may not be giants, but they´ll sell pretty well. A million to 1.5.
Only year was mentioned yes. People speculate, that a late March/first week of April release (end of the Japanese school year, when kids have time) is possible. Similar to the summer window of Splatoon 2.
Mario Kart and Donkey Kong titles that aren't ports would be nice.
