    There's a Nintendo Direct AND a State of Play tomorrow? Another console war about to start.

    You mean for a cross-gen release on the OG Switch and Switch 2?

    Most likely, yeah, that would make the most sense in terms of getting maximum sales

    I could also see it being exclusive to switch 2 if it’s really graphically intensive but that seems doubtful

    Either way they’ll probably time it with the switch 2 release or release window so I think they’re waiting to show it off until the console announcement

    Only reason they haven’t shown it off imo is they’re waiting for the new hardware

    Mario vs DK, Peach, remake of ds and wii game linked to each other, zelda news, f zero (possibly remake)

    Streets are saying the DS & Wii remakes are:
    ’Another Code’ series (known as ‘Trace Memory’ in NA)

    but they announced switch before the holidays in 2016

    I don’t think it will effect sales unless it’s not back compat

    Different circumstances:
    Wii U was being pulled from store shelves so Nintendo could afford to announce their brand-new platform before the holidays.

    Switch is still alive and kicking 6 years after launch; therefore a Switch 2 reveal so soon could cannibalize their holiday sales this year.

    Really hope we see FF Tactics tmrw. Also in for that rumored Peach game

    how tf did gamefreak manage to f*** up a DLC is beyond me like some explain to me how can a DLC have even worse performance than the base game honestly wtf

    Wtf
    It’s about time you PKMN fans started voting with your wallets

    I did that with TOTK since I didn’t wanna support that $70 price tag. (And speaking of performance, the earlier section of the game on Great Sky Island had such atrocious performance. I would’ve been furious if I paid $70 for that s***. Fortunately the game runs well afterwards.)

    Yeah but the circumstances are quite unique, especially if there’s cross-gen releases I think switch will still sell really well years into the release of switch 2. Like what happened with the PS2 after the PS3 dropped. Not to mention they could do a price drop. Like maybe Switch 2 coming in at $400 and oled dropped to $300 with reg Switch dropped to $250

    It’s not the first time Nintendo would’ve done this.
    They waited till early 2015 to officially announce New 3DS for NA and Europe territories, despite said system being announced in 2014 already for Japan and Australia.
    They knew if the NA and Europe branches announced the new system before the holidays despite the launch being planned for after that period, it would eat away at their holiday sales, in the eyes of casuals of course.

    No Direct announcement today means we aren’t getting one for the rest of the year 💯

    Oh the performance hiccups in TOTK are unnoticeable comparing to what’s goin on in the Pokémon dlc I’m talking about assets and textures taking 5+ seconds to load in or a the whole game getting stuck when you turn the camera towards the water s*** is unreal and I don’t know how I can refund this s***
