yeah nintendo will just shut down their office until december 7th
Even Bamco is no longer that bad, they have 4 games planned for the Switch until the end of the year + Tales of Vesperia in January.
There's a good chance Animal Crossing will be there in some form tomorrow.
Was thinking of something more like Final Fantasy XI reboot or XIV :P
Are you referring to Smash Ultimate? Because Smash 4 actually did do this.
- Sonic's around the time Lost World came out.
- Olimar near when Pikmin 3 happened.
- Toon Link on the day Wind Waker HD released.
- Zelda when Link Between Worlds launched in Japan.
- Dedede a day before Triple Deluxe launched.
- Diddy Kong w/ Tropical Freeze.
- And Shulk with Xenoblade 3D being revealed.

Wait really? Has there been any hints or anything from insiders on here?
Sorry if I missed anything, this thread flies
Only one of these characters was a newcomer in Smash 4.
Remember how weird it was in 2013 where apparently E3 happened in April?
We have two insiders hinting at it. King Zell and Tom from Eurogamer.
Ok, hear me out. What if the Pokémon rep in Smash Bros. is #808, and we get its Smash Bros. reveal trailer just after its reveal for Let's Go in this Direct? I understand the Smash roster was finalized in 12/2015, but given how the Pokémon design process works, it's very possible #808 existed by then. Also, Smash isn't a stranger to promoting brand new / unreleased content with characters: look at Roy in Melee and Corrin in 3DS / Wii U. A Gen VII Pokémon would be passé by now, with Gen VIII just around the corner and Let's Go out soon.
I feel like using a newcomer clause isn't really fair to apply to Ultimate though given that everyone is returning in Ultimate.
Is Kingdom Hearts 1 + 2 coming to Switch? All these other old Square ports are nice, but CC and TWEWY are small stuff. I want the big guns like KH.
I'd like them to talk more about how they're gonna release retro games beyond NES/SNES but I won't get my hopes up after so long.
Shulk is the only Smash 4 newcomer out of that set. And he was revealed when Xenoblade 3D was revealed, not when Xenoblade 3D released.
You'd think that they're doing something "game-changing" since they skipped an entire gen.
Even if it's generally the same as New Leaf but more refined... I still want it.
It will be a dumb move from Nintendo to kill the franchise.
Just call the next iterations Mii Sports and Mii Fit.
The Switch has JoyCons with motion controls. And Mii Fit can work with a new balance board and even smartphone app for extra fitness stuff like steps tracking and other functions outside the game.
Also don't forget Nintendo's and Brain Age which have sold quite well in the DS era. Perhaps they can make a comeback but most likely they will make a comeback on smartphones
Can at least one more insider please hint at AC so our hopes and dreams have a third leg to stand on? Thx
Like I told LOL, I feel like the newcomer clause isn't really fair here since we already knew we were getting all previous characters when the game was revealed. Thanks for letting me know on Xenoblade though, I'm going to change that.
I WANT a new Wii Sports game. Nintendo should continue it.
We're not under an NDA :) Just don't think it's Skull Kid's time to shine just yet
