SilentWarrior25 Posted January 13, 2017 Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 Since the Switch is getting fully shown off tonight, I decided to close the old thread and start with a new one. Once the live stream is over, I'll create a poll to see what everyone's opinions are. Here's a link to where you can find the stream (and links to other places if you choose to watch from there): http://www.nintendo.com/switch/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterOfAwesomeness Posted January 13, 2017 Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 Games so far: 1 2 Switch Arms SPLATOON 2! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilentWarrior25 Posted January 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 Can I just say that they need to find new translators in the future. They aren't interested AT ALL! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterOfAwesomeness Posted January 13, 2017 Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 Next game is Super Mario Odyssey. Mario's hat has eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilentWarrior25 Posted January 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 Just saying. Fire Emblem Warriors is going to be amazing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterOfAwesomeness Posted January 13, 2017 Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 More Xenoblades and No More Heroes. The Switch will launch on March 3rd. AND THE NEW ZELDA GAME WILL BE LAUNCHED WITH IT! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilentWarrior25 Posted January 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 So my overall thoughts on the presentation. Quite a lot of games shown off that I was not expecting to see, but my concern is that we only have two launch games confirmed so far: 1 2 Switch (it's just like what Wii Sports was on the Wii) and Zelda: Breath of the Wild (it has to be contending for GOTY at this point). On the Switch itself, I like the ideas that it has going for it. I'll definitely try out the Rumble HD features of the JoyCon controllers with my brother when we get the Switch (which comes out 2 days after my birthday, best present ever! :D ). Now the Treehouse Event is supposed to start at 9:30 ET, so I'm actually going to wait for that event to finish before making the poll since it's clear there's not enough information given gamewise. The only real negative thing about the entire presentation is that the translators were just awful. It's supposed to be an exciting time, try to show some excitement when speaking, even if the people talking on stage are not exciting.

Just like every open world game, you just saw a game that will be padded with going back to the same areas countless times just to get one more item or collectible that you need to progress. It'll take 50 hours to beat a Mario game with 8 hours of actual content in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darksphere92 Posted January 13, 2017 Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 hey guys, i think we finally got Sonic Adventure 3, just with Mario. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilentWarrior25 Posted January 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 Oh, so Sonic Mania is also getting released on the Switch in the spring when previously it wasn't. That's cool for me. And it looks like Super Bomberman-R (finally a new game in the series!) is coming out in March for the Switch (exclusively?). It looks like it should be fun.

Based on things you THINK will be flaws? How can you still claim to be a rational skeptic? But I will say 1 2 Switch is the worst thing Nintendo ever conceived. A game where you don't look at the screen? Then that's not a video game? You're literally telling people to point at eachother and calling it a game. Oh and Skyrim getting confirmed is a huge win. That's proof that the Switch is powerful enough to play AAA open world games. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really doubt that for anyone who only buys Nintendo games that they would even care about skyrim tbh, and for anyone who does care about skyrim they probably have a Pc, PS4 or Xbone so why buy it for the switch? let me know if im misinformed or wrong about it.

SilentWarrior25 Posted January 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 Shoutout to Donnie (aka ssf1991) for creating a list of all of the announced games for the Switch so far. I'm expecting this will get updated after the Treehouse event in the morning, but this is still a lot to be excited for so far. https://mynintendonews.com/2017/01/13/heres-an-entire-list-of-the-games-announced-for-nintendo-switch/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoveskeSaiga Posted January 13, 2017 Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 Pre-ordered a Switch just for Zelda, and pre-ordered the Breath of the Wild Master Edition. That game looks so freakin good! I'm pretty excited for Fire Emblem Warriors too if it turns out anywhere near as good as Hyrule Warriors was. Aside from that I probably won't be playing much on this system aside Zelda, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, and Dragon Quest Heroes Bundle this year but I'm okay with that. I really enjoyed the Wii U and I'm sure I'll get my money out of this system too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noir Posted January 13, 2017 Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 SMT V and No More Heroes 3 sold me a switch. Got it preordered now 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WOOF Posted January 13, 2017 Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 None of these games announced so far really make me want to buy the switch, hopefully something better will be announced later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sateler96 Posted January 13, 2017 Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 only excited for Zelda and i can get that for cheaper on the Wii U lol it really doesn't matter its like Twilight Princess when it was on Gamecube and Wii and the GC version was better sorry that I don't wanna pay for $300 for a console just for Zelda if i can get it on a cheaper hopefully Wii U with probably a better battery life than the Switch lol plus the Mario in New York gives me BAD MEMORIES OF THAT SHITTY MOVIE. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nintendo never had a game as epic and big as Skyrim this generation. This is huge news towards Nintendo capturing that audience they missed out on and catching up with next gen. Say what you want about it performing less or the game being old. The fact that it runs a game like that (The remaster I believe) in the first place is a huge step forward. And yes. The Mario game looked fucking amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilentWarrior25 Posted January 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 Well, thanks to my mom for preordering both my graduation and birthday gift lol. I got the $510 bundle at gamestop since their shipping was the best and I get 5 games (3 of which we didn't even see get announced) with it. But preorders were almost impossible to do as the lower bundles were starting to disappear before our eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
