Do you think first-party publishing could be impacted by the virus, at least in the immediate future?
Such as games that were planned for H1 this year.
Here's a Would You Rather, for the sake of keeping this thread going.
Would you rather have....
Would you rather have....
- Nintendo now drops a trailer for a first party game on the first and third Thursday of every month. The game trailer shown will not be announced ahead of time, so you never know what it will be. It could be an announced first party game, an unannounced first party game, DLC for an existing game, or an e-shop game. But Nintendo Directs will cease to exist, including E3, and Nintendo no longer shows up at TGA, PAX, or any sort of gaming convention. Treehouse segments now take place once every three months, showing only games that we already know about.
- We keep going on our current trajectory, with Nintendo Directs every few months or so and various trailers and gameplay shown at conferences like E3 and TGA.
Do I have a say in the matter?
The best proposal so far along Doom Eternal
Zippo was wrong just like literally everyone this month that's tried to nail down what Nintendo is up to
I defend ALL leakers
Sabi, Zippo, Liam, my aunt, Raccoon and others
except marcus sellers because ...like... that is too much =P
Yep, that's exactly my point.
It made sense to label absolute conspiracy the links between Directs and coronavirus when you made that tweet. But, as the days go by and the virus situation is getting worst, we can't exclude some kinds of correlation.
Can't dismiss the possibility at this point in time.
Right. My tweet was for that point in time. Not now or future days/weeks. As time progresses and the gap between the September Direct expands, perhaps folks can look at the very real impacts the virus is having and put their personal need/want for a Direct to the side.
User warned: Engaging in off-site drama
As someone who is not really affected by the "down" sections of this thread, I would say 2.
Hey aren't you the guy that thought Dark Cloud was an insider
........OOF.
lmfaoHey aren't you the guy that thought Dark Cloud was an insider
But not something like delaying Animal Crossing again after all this time?
That's not gonna happen, right?
Never.
Sounds good to me. If video games are truly dead that is.
Hey aren't you the guy that thought Dark Cloud was an insider
Yup, that's me alright. I'm totally willing to take the L on that
I finally wised up and I'm done with insider-worship
Shitty direct schedule is still better than the alternative.
If you drink your own urine, then I will drink my own urine.
You're too nice to force me to drink my own urine, right?
While I would advise against it, I'm not going to yuck your yum.
I'm just replying to a question about someone's track record, that's not doom&gloom.
Did you expect to say "he got stuff right" when that's not the case? He hasn't got anything wrong either, I'm just giving details for someone asking that isn't following the dozens of pages being done every day.
True, but it's more a global strategy issue. Nintendo isn't going to release 2 party games next to each other.
I mean I live in one of the few states that has not one, but two confirmed cases, so I know exactly what's going on.
Hey aren't you the guy that thought Dark Cloud was an insider
I said Damn Son!
Don't leave. Its up to the Fire Emblem boyz to save this thread
Nintendo Directs are so much more hype than random announcements because it's multiple announcements chained together and there's the fun lead up to when it goes live. I also love watching it live and seeing live reactions. So definitely 2.
It's also fun loading up ERA after and see it went down from everyone else doing the same. That camaraderie , yo.
no urine for either of us
hey dark cloud's not an insider btw
edit: not directed at you obviously
A couple dozen pages ago in this thread people were discussing the possibility of a Splatoon spin-off. A lot of people speculated an action, platforming, or RPG spin-off of Splatoon.
I think a Splatoon spin-off is very likely (no more content updates for Splatoon 2 for almost a year now, extremely popular game in Japan, Splatoon 3 probably still a while away). But my guess is a rhythm spin-off game. Splatoon has so many in-universe bands and its soundtracks spans a lot of different genres of music. There are some real bangers. Just makes sense!
Indieszero, the company that made the Theatrhythm games for 3DS, worked on Sushi Striker and no word about its next project. My speculation is Indieszero's next project is this.

I can't believe Shigeru Miyamoto himself was banned from Era for a week. He's gonna make a new Star Fox game now, isn't he. Oh no.
Animal Crossing should have gone gold by now. I'd suspect no delay will happen.
My state is bordering a state that has a confirmed case and I'll be in Mass next week for PAX. So it's a situation I'm certainly watching.
I mean, maybe not you personally but i bet we could find evidence in the internets about people that would want it.
But seriously, dont
Dark Cloud is an insider in our hearts. But not our minds.
The only hint we have is the "SOS: Save our Salmons" tweet. That feels more like it has some sort of adventure element, since it feels like you'll be either saving or fighting salmonids.
lmao if you read this thread you'd see not a lot of zippo worship going on, quite the opposite
The coronavirus is fucking everything and everyone up, man. I'm worried about it. Any word on if it's slowing down?
I'm happy to hear that. I know that was a bit of a paranoid question, thank you for answering. :)
I use it extensively, the unfortunate part is that insiders for some reason never use it.
It is always the same trajectory - initially they say they don't mind naysayers, then they say they are above it, then they argue a little with some naysayers, then they get deeply offended (they don't say it, you just see it in their posts), and sooner rather than later they are gone from Era or no longer provide any information whatsoever.
It happens exactly the same, each and every time, and they NEVER use the ignore function. Go figure. :-(
And to those who would say good riddance (whom I won't see since they are probably already in my ignore list :-)), I am not talking just about "leakers", I am talking about any people with some inside information that share a little of that information or just insights, including industry people.

I actually just got an email at my job about how we're changing security measures because of the virus... my level of concern with this epidemic has clicked up by one notch. :/
