It’s Dae here! I promised to write up a bit on my opinion on the Switch reveal, but it turned out to be longer than I expected. Therefore I’ll take this opportunity to publish my first article in a couple of years. Enjoy!
Let’s get the conference out of the way first; it was a poor showing. Live shows are usually a hit or a miss and this one was definitely a miss. Awkward, stiff translations as well as weird presentation of games and holding out on information that would entice customers are among my major gripes. The nice thing is that the Zelda trailer was absolutely amazing and Mario and Xenoblade 2 had a good showings too. But Zelda shouldn’t have been the final ‘one more thing’ surprise, everybody expected it to be a launch title already. Rather, I’d have liked a Metroid tease or something along those lines as a finisher for the show.
The lack of distinct games was also apparent. I guess they didn’t want to show games that weren’t prepared for release, but it didn’t show any confidence that they could produce a steady lineup of games for the Switch. People fear a repeat of the Wii U now, and that could really damage the sales of the console. I also wonder what makes the games so sparse at launch. Nintendo hasn’t released a lot of games in the past two years so I would have assumed they were working on new ones. If that isn’t the case, what were they doing all the time? I guess we’ll have to take a wait and see approach here and time will tell if they announce more games.
The games that have been announced do look pretty good though. Zelda is, of course, breathtaking and had one of the best trailers for a game I’ve ever seen. It really hit all the marks on a checklist of ‘how to make the perfect trailer’. Odyssey looks refreshing and can set itself apart from Galaxy so it won’t have the trouble of being compared to its shadow. The real life city may feel a bit uncanny valley, but I actually like the effect it brings out and luckily there’s a whole slew of different environments. Really looking forward to a more sandbox-style Mario again after the more linear games we’ve had in the past ten years. Splatoon 2 looks fresh, although it looks more like an upgraded port instead of a actual sequel, but then again what is a shooter sequel actually? You can’t innovate a lot except for new weapons, new maps, new strategies and a better online infrastructure. I don’t know if it was confirmed or denied, but I hope for online co-op possibility. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is also more of a luxury port, but the base game was great and this one will still be lots of fun for parties. I liked the new style of Xenoblade 2 too; it’s a bit different from the previous two but that’s OK in my opinion. Looking forward to hear about those games. 1 2 Switch looks like a fun mini-game collection, but I understand people saying they wanted this to be a pack in title. I don’t expect many people to cough up $50 for it, and I do believe they should have made it a $30 game, but I wouldn’t count on Nintendo rethinking it as a pack-in. I feel like they want to give the impression of it being a top-quality title.
The Switch will launch with only a couple of games, the sparsest it’s ever been for a launch of a console. I think there are a couple of reasons for this. First, you have Nintendo releasing Zelda: BotW. Most who picks up a Switch will pick up Zelda too. That makes for a tough competition from the get-go and games like Skyrim really could suffer from it. That’s why I think some high profile games got delayed last minute when they heard Zelda was making launch. And on the third party side, there a few ports of older games. But then I think, who buys all those ports anyway? Yes, they can make the ports and show ‘confidence’ in the Switch, but neither customers want old ports of uninteresting games they already bought and the publisher won’t make their money back too. It’s sadly a bit of self fulfilling prophecy, as few ports don’t entice customers to buy the console which leads to even fewer ports. But the Switch will all-in-all be a Nintendo and Japanese gaming system, and we just have to have faith in the usual companies to bring over their franchises. In this way I see Switch more as 3DS, with it getting the 3DS like library. With this I mean stuff like Phoenix Wright, Zero Escape… To be successful I think Nintendo just have to push through with being an alternative system, there’s no point to go compete with PS4 and XB1 without bringing some new stuff on the table.
And that brings me to the hardware. I haven’t used the actual hardware itself, but I read many positive impressions. The build quality is great and the looks are top notch. I even find it to have a bit of ‘sex-appeal’. If you search for direct comparison shots between the Switch and Wii U Gamepad, you’ll realize how bad the Gamepad looked and feel like it was made by Fisher-Price. But they did a great job with the Switch. The concept is appealing, and can be demonstrated easily to someone unfamiliar with the console. As a power engineer with some electronics background, I can also tell from all the technical stuff I read that this is the best console they could have built. The processor and graphics card is the most modern one that can power the console for continuous use. Processors in a iPhone 7 or upcoming Galaxy S8 may be faster, but they clock down due to power and heat concerns. The battery is also rather large and takes up a lot of space already, so saying they skimped out on battery is untrue. The battery life might not be a lot, but it’s actually comparable to phones running at 100% load. They also use a lot of modern application like USB C fast charging, Wifi AC, multitouch… Maybe you don’t believe it, but it’s really an impressive piece of tech that is competitive with stuff released today.
We can’t forget about the best parts of the console too: the Joy-Cons. I feel like they are the heart of the console, they are so well designed that the concept of the Switch really shines. Some vendors do have some detachable controllers for a generic tablet, but the from factor, build quality and ease of use are so far ahead that you can really see the ‘Nintendo magic’. Switching (haha, get it?) between docked, portable and table mode is so easy that it gets this wow factor when showing it off to friends. Being able to share a Joy-Con for two players is also nice, even though it doesn’t seem to be the most comfortable thing. But I can assure you, I can pop out my Switch and have some great fun with friends playing Mario Kart 8. The HD Rumble works well too apparently, and I think Nintendo can find some good applications for its use in games. Having some motions controls built in while functioning as traditional controllers is what makes this console combine the best of both worlds. A 20 hour battery life isn’t too shabby either, and you can easily recharge the battery when you dock the console.
This all reflects on the price too, which is indeed a bit expensive. $80 for a pair of Joy-Cons is steep, and far above a regular PS4 or Xbox One controller. Yes, you technically get two, but you’ll be buying them in pairs, because who wants a single lonely Joy-Con? I suspect many games to require a pair of Joy-Cons too, even though I don’t know if it’s possible to connect four pairs of Joy-Con if some game featured four player local multiplayer (Smash Bros?). They feature lots of tech and game companies always want to make money on accesories, but I think it would have been better if they priced it $10 to $15 lowers to reduce the sticker shock effect. The other accessories are expensive too, the Pro Controller is the definitive controller for couch gaming, but it comes with a definitive price as well. Buying extra Joy-Cons don’t even give the same colour straps, which can be bought for $8 seperately. And if you want an extra grip and be able to charge your controllers, which you can’t do with the included grip, it’ll cost you an extra $30. Granted, including it in the box would have upped the box price with another $15. If you want a ‘starters pack’ for new Switch users, you can feel nickel-and-dimed due to the high accessory costs. I wish Nintendo can first address those prices if it seems that it is a barrier to entry.
As for the box itself, I feel the $299 is still a fair price. Based on what I read, I already expected that $249 would be a tough target to reach. $299 is actually reasonable if you know what’s inside and how much things cost in manufacturing, R&D costs, distribution, retail and not to mention bad exchange rate and taxes in Europe. I believe that Nintendo still makes less profit in Europe per console sold, since people always forget that doing business in general is more expensive here due to wages, business taxes and buildings. The real question is actually value sided. It’s not: ‘Is this a fair price to charge’, but: ‘Do I feel like this is a fair price to me’. Nintendo will have to do a good job in selling value to the consumer and needs a clear messaging what it’s actually selling. In that I feel that a comparison with PS4 and generic tablets is not the way to go. Yes, the PS4 is comparable in price and more powerful, but as long as the Switch offers distinctly different features, people may still get enticed to buy. We’ll see if this works out, but I’m not the one who is calling this out as a flop already.
As for myself, I still believe in the Switch and even did save up enough the past two years to go on a crazy shopping splurge. I pre-ordered the Grey console, got the Pro Controllers, the Red/Blue Joy-Cons, the Charging Grip and an extra case. I really felt like that at some point in the future, I would have bought it anyway to play my favorite Nintendo games and therefore it doesn’t matter to me if I buy it sooner. I also want the definitive edition of Zelda, and being able to transport it between my dorm and home is a really big plus to me. I really look forward to most of the first party games that are announced, even though not many details have come out already. The conference damped my enthusiasm a bit, but I think it will be on full fire again closer to March 3rd. I’ll do a technical review of the Switch in six weeks when I get my hands on one, so look forward to reading it here!
This thing has gotten really long now, and I didn’t even touch on all the aspects of the Switch, but I need to wrap up here. If you’d like to have my opinion on an untouched subject, just ask in the comments. I’ll still check them regularly, even though I may not be an active writer anymore 🙂 I’d love to hear your opinion on the Switch too. Are you buying at launch? Holding out a bit? Or have even become uninterested? What do you think of the price? What games can entice you to buy? Tell me in the comments!
Enjoy and you’ll hear back from me when I get my Switch!
~Daedardus~
Not even worth buying when Zelda is the only noteworthy title available at launch. Best to wait until summer or maybe even after
I can’t say no to Zelda sadly. Ah well, €700 euro well spent.
yea you can’t after you see this
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/ecfb06de2570a7bd13fe8e281bdb775cc6fbd9e479c139cae2592f0cf314ee9d.jpg
Tearsss rather upgrade my rig for that money. I mean I want the Switch but not going to spend that kind of money for just one game. I’ll probably wait it out until at least August
It’s not for one game though, I was already sure I will get the other games announced at the conference. And the 700 euro figure is including all of the additional stuff I’m buying.
Here’s a rundown:
€330 Switch
€65 Pro Controller
€75 Extra Joy-Cons
€30 Charging grip
€50 128GB Micro SD
€20 Case
Games
€90 Zelda BotW LE
€60 Zelda BotW Wii U
€20 Snipperclips
€20 Fast RMX
Amiibos & other stuff
€60 Zelda BotW Amiibos
€40 Zelda: Arts and crafts
Which totals a fair bit more than 700 but it includes stuff I’d have bought either way if I didn’t buy a switch or stuff that I don’t really need to buy but am going to either way. Some of the things I get as a present too :).
I could’ve just went with the 420 euro figure for Zelda, but I saved up enough for it anyway and I the things on the list is stuff I will never regret buying. I still don’t regret my Wii U purchase, even though I agree it was an expensive purchase.
In the first month I intend on buying Zelda, BomberMan, SnipperClips, and I Am Setsuna. I play games that look fun not noteworthy.
oh me too!
so much reading but ill do it for you dae
Originally it was going to be like 1000 words more, but then I was like, nah, too much already.
Lol im about to spend more on the switch then i did on my ps4 lol
I just hope there is enough consoles in stock because I won’t be able to get it in release :/
And me? I need to sell my XBOX360 (Which will be hard, will take some time) and turn BRL into USD, cuz i dont live in USA! I think ill be only able to buy it when release =/ Good Luck The singular Kuppo!
Nvm, i get it in Target, they restocked it! Go there! Maybe you can got there!
Nvm again, my parents will not buy, we dont have that much money to spend =/
Speaking of extravaganza, did anyone attend the James Earl Ray Extravaganza?
Rumor of Fire Emblem Fates port to Switch. Yas please. Never picked those games up.
Hopefully we get all three routes off the bat rather go through a paywall.
Yea I feel like it’ll be an ultimate edition situation.
Oh goody, more censorship from Nintendo.
we will find out tmmr lol
And then if it’s not true we’ll get another article crying about Fake News.
I don’t see how that’s “crying”.
Gaming journalism is incredibly biased.
Didn’t like Fates as much as Revelation. Felt like the first chapters were of the hard but unfair type. I got stonewalled in one chapter because the RNG decided to glitch out and what should be a winning move ended up being a full KO for me.
I don’t think it needs a full port on Switch too, I have the game on 3DS and doubt there’s a big public for a port. Can’t say no to a new FE on Switch though. 🙂
Fire emblem warriors gameplay tmmr i hope, if we get a new game too ill cry
Awakening was purtty easy. I’d invite a more challenging game.
New FE on Switch is gonna be a minimum of another year. Building an engine from scratch and for an HD console will take time. There doesn’t need to be a huge market for a port. That’s the beauty of ports. As long as it didn’t cost much to port the game it doesn’t need a large market to be profitable.
fates would have a big graphics overhaul
It sounds like you were having trouble with the Conquest route.
If you’re used to playing Awakening, Birthright might be more your speed.
Are you kidding? Revelation was the absolute worst out of the three storylines IMO.
Oh damn, I meant Awakening xD
Oh, I see what you mean now. I still think Fates (at least Birthright and Conquest) was better than Awakening, but to each their own.
I stopped playing Fates when it should have become good I suppose. But I got annoyed at FE when everything turned out to be this unfair chess game where I had to go through hoops just to protect my weak and useless units.
When did you stop playing?
Before I could choose my path unfortunately, so I didn’t play much of it. But I felt like if the whole games this then I couldn’t be bothered spending my scarse time.
We could even get more content for the game if that ends up being true :O
I just want FE15.
Reggie arent you suppose to be in school lol
Nope teacher meetings today!
you are so lucky this pass few days arent you
Yeah, five day weekend. Couldn’t’ve turned out better.
Nintendo’s main developers do not work on ports. So this wouldn’t hinder that from coming any sooner.
I know, but I mean at the direct tomorrow. FE13 was released in 2013, FE14 was released in 2015, so it wouldn’t be that far off to see a teaser or something.
The unannounced game I look most forward too on Switch is Animal Crossing. It will be the perfect merger for the portable/home console version. The portable ones were usually the best because you could take them everywhere you go, but sometimes you wished to dim the lights in the living room and relax in front of the tv. I really need the game in my life, Animal Crossing always managed to wind me down when I got into stressy periods. 2018 can’t come soon enough.
i can see it being announced at either this e3 or the next one, actual animal crossing not Animal Crossing Amiibo Festival Switch or Really Happy Home Designers
And hopefully with paid online we get a more fleshed out onlin experience for AC. And bring back the bright colors! The drowned out colors really killed the experience for me on 3DS.
Maybe paid online allows you to have towns with your friends, not just visit them.
Same here, we’re due for one soon, and all of these spinoff titles don’t count. 😛
Where did you get the info that a new Animal Crossing game will be released in Nintendo Switch?
From nowhere, it’s the best educated guess I can make.
Ok
There better be. Can’t believe that didn’t do a WiiU one. They made HD models!
I also expect it to have way more content than NL. I’d like to be able to travel places like the city in City Folk. Better character models would be good too, and how about not having to answer a questionnaire in the beginning to design your character? xP
I think that Stars will be on 3DS, and DP remakes will be on Switch, because Nintendo confirmed that Switch will not substitute the 3DS.
What logic is this?
Idk, i think it makes sense ‘-‘
It doesn’t subsitute the 3DS in the way that the current audience for the 3DS is different than the one for the Switch. They want to keep selling the 3DS as a cheap handheld with many games readily available. The Switch completely replaces the Wii U on the other hand, they don’t want you to know about that anymore.
Therefore, I expect the next two years that the 3DS will still get marketed and maybe even get a price cut to close to $100, but all the major games will get released on the Switch. They just don’t want to discontinue it already and fear that people won’t buy it anymore.
I’ve already posted my full thoughts a while ago, so I’ll sum it up here.
———————————
Presentation was strong, translator doesn’t effect my enjoyment. Xenoblade 2, Mario Oddysey, and Splatoon 2 are my most hyped announcements. They spent a little too much time with 3rd parties IMO, but I get why they did it. I do agree with you Dae, a release date shouldn’t have been a final surprise. I think Super Mario Oddysey should’ve filled that spot instead. Launch looks weak, but launch period looks fairly strong. MK8 Deluxe shouldn’t be 60 dollars for simply a battle mode and three new purely aethstetic characters. Arms looks fun, but I hope it has enough content to warrant a 60 dollar purchase. 1-2-Switch should’ve been a pack in, there’s no way I’m paying 50 dollars to milk a cow. I loved splatoon 1, so of course I’ll pick up splatoon 2. Xenoblade 2 has me extremely excited, I loved the original and X, so I can’t wait to see what they do with this one! Art style is sorta off putting though. SM Oddysey looks amazing! I’ve been wanting them to go back to sandbox mario games, so I’m glad they’re finally making another one. Overall I think the switch will sell relatively well at launch, but I think it’ll really take off in the holiday season. I also think they need to have a strong E3 to have a strong holiday, as the only Q3 and Q4 game we know of is SM Oddysey.
hmm knowing Nintendo Fire emblem warriors will launch Q3 and Q4 along with Xenoblade 2
FE15 maybe? xD
Im most hyped for Xenoblade 2, Super Mario Odyssey, Splatoon 2, Zelda: BotW and the next PKMN games of couse.
I can’t wait for all of those games as well! If stars is real I honestly think we’ll see it for the first time in May.
yea 5 second teaser of a shooting star
Pokemon Hokulele and Pokemon Ryusei
Theres always 2 big titles released at the same time in November it seems . Odyssey is totally gonna be one
Stars? Animal crossing? Metroid? Retro’s game? Xenoblade 2? MOTHER 3??????
Stars would be my best bet, but Animal crossing seems like a 2018
Pokémon Stars will the other 😉
Super Mario 3d World and Link Between worlds 2013
ORAS And Smash 2014
i think they skipped the next two, due to lack of games for the wii u
Finally. Someone on the same page as me.
On what? Or just everything?
Just about yea haha
Great minds think alike.
Although I legit think Arms looks fantastic. I’ll admit I wasn’t totally sold but the second I saw live gameplay I was in. Looks very fun. It makes me think of Smash Bros in the sense that Smash made 2D fighters more approachable and this looks to make 3D fighters more approachable.
Arms could be the splatoon of fighting games and change up the formula the genre got used to
Im really want to play breath of the wild, I’ve never finished any Zelda game before and I want it to be the first one that I finish.
I’m also excited for Project Octopath(weird name uh) fell in love with the graphics and can’t wait to play it.
You’ll enjoy Zelda, I’m sure of it.
Forgot about Octopath! Liked Bravely Default so I look forward to it at least.
I personally don’t feel the starting line up are showstoppers (except Breath of the wild, you should’ve seen how petrified I was when I saw it….even drooled a little) but honestly who cares, I know I know games make the system but don’t forget they’ll make new games and have plenty unrevealed in the making, I will still get the switch now and that’ll be good in the long run, I still get use out of my Wii U everyday so I know the switch will do just fine we just have to give it a chance
So I was just working in the lab I got recruited for, and the two grad students were discussing Pokemon Sun and Moon. I’m so glad to be researching with nerds like me 🙂
Lucky, that must be awesome!
What field are you in?
My opinions 😮
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The presentation was pretty bad. The translator really put me off as funny as he was in hindsight. The spent too much time emphasizing motion controls. That should’ve been a side thing so people wouldn’t distract from that great reveal.
As far as the system itself, I’m excited! Zelda looks absolutely amazing. Mario looks like pure fun and the idea of switching the console into a handheld is brilliant.
I think that there is still a chance that there will be a digital game packed in with it. Maybe something similar to 1-2-Switch.
Accessories are for sure way too expensive though.
Reggie said there was no pack in.
Source: I am him.
Actually he said that in an interview.
Just wanted to make sure it didn’t sound like a joke.
.-.
The translator made the presentation better for me ^~^
I heard reggie is saying this thing will focus as a console so im kinda scared they are barely gonna market the fact it can be taken anywhere
I saw the first Switch commercial yesterday and you can be sure they showed off that it can be taken everywhere.
ok thank god, One thing that scares me with Nintendo is their marketing tactics
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y7B7rucLUyk
Here is the commercial btw
i need that song AND STILL NO CHILDREN
If the switch is mobile I have a perpetual fear that my natural desire to bring my tech with me everywhere I go will pose problems like what if I involuntarily sit down with it in my cargo pocket and it bends, what kinda resistance and push does this thing have
this is why u bring a carrying case….
I know I’m not stupid (deranged maybe) but I would never put it in a pocket unprotected I think the case would fit my pocket or not,
In what universe would you be able to bend equipment like that by just sitting one it for 2 seconds? Unless you’re morbidly obese maybe..
…….
How will you even fit it in your pockets?
I use very deep pocketed Cargo Pants
I run a very strict inventory
my phone in my Breast pocket
3DS XL in my left pocket w/ case
Ear buds and general objects in right
iPad mini in right cargo pocket w/ case
And porta-charger and wires in left cargo pocket also a comb
Wallet in back left
Keys back right
Some of my jeans don’t even have pockets to fit my phone, I don’t know how you are able to stuff all that in your pockets.
The only thing I worry about when leaving the house is if my outfit’s acceptable lol
Silly https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/c53377f8372135ee93b1eb91e3b413cf43564a4fdde62a8c251c04c2f7f4b78b.gif
I just said big ass pockets
You probably should avoid bringing your switch around if you have all that other stuff. If you lose it or break it you’re fucked
Today’s sucking, can we please move to tomorrow now? ;~;
Go to sleep. It will be tomorrow in no time.
I’m in school and hw exists
Lol. School. Good times.
I hate my life
Already? Your life hasn’t even started yet.
Yep already …:
I have from one of the worlds worst books I have 12 notecards for three different topics due tomorrow that I haven’t started yet that are for a reasearch paper decides life and death of the next marking period and I have two clubs in between so I have an average of an hour to eat and do that + the rest of HW I have and to relax before off to the next thing
I can relate to your problem
Wow….
What book?
Catcher in the Rye
Go to Australia, is already tomorrow there 😛
I can’t ;~;
I wanna though
Me it’s still 11 am or so in your region, the day may get better ^^
Same time here
Doubt it
What happened?
I botched up a test really bad
A bad test isn’t the end of the world. I did some pretty bad tests too, and now I’m graduating as an engineer.
But it’s gonna tank my average..
Talk to your teacher over it. Do you think it will affect your GPA and chances of higher education? Show that you are willing, tests only give an impression of a certain moment in time, but don’t really show your real performance.
It probably will.. and I doubt I can change it
lets say if Stars is real and is a sequel, how far a of a time skip would u want to see happen, personally i would love to see a 10 year time skip since alot can happen in 10 years
5 years, so not to many happens while I’m gone, also, what if you could battle sun(The main protagonist)in the game ? That would be lit and it’s a shame they didn’t do that in BW2 °~°
maybe you can sync the games up? the 3ds can do that i think
It could be a possibility
I wanna see something Pokemon
Best version yet
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_i5S5lr1vps
sounds like its narrated by Link from the CD-i games
“I’m so hungry, I could eat an Octorock!!”
I cant wait to bomb some dodongos
Whoever made this should be shot
Has the Troll of the year returned yet? I hope he isn’t!
Called it!
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/32bb27d4e818cb81ecc08e2468d4cf28bad5bffd905f6b171dc8ec6b50cf6837.png
I’m not wrong though.
You all sound like you want him to come back just so you have something to make fun of
But we already have you to make fun of
Name checks out
No just making sure after this I’m done with him
Again, no trolls, just hypersensitive children.
It’s unfortunate that someone who claims they aren’t a troll changes their IP address after getting banned just to come back here and say inflammatory things about the man who shot MLKJ
He has a name you know: James Earl Ray
Most of the games announced looked great. I am looking forward to Splatoon 2 and ARMS. I think the reason why we didn’t hear about other games is, because 3 months after launch is E3.
oh my gosh I must be getting old, times flying by, it feels like we just had E3
also you’re 100% right. I just hope that we get Animal Crossing
I’m cautious as to whether or not arms has enough content to justify $60
Im guessing it will, maybe it will go the Splatoon route and do free content updates?
That’d be nice, nintendo is usually pretty good about that stuff.
if they do lets say Paid DLC you do get what you pay for 😀
Yeah I’ll be watching to see what they do with it before I make a decision 😛
That should be one of the perks to the online service: free paid DLC
Honestly, this year’s E3 will make or break long term sales. They better have a few tricks up their
sleevehat.As long as it’s better than 2015’s we’re good..
Better yet, can they pull off another E3 2014?
Or another E3 2011?
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=outJSCu3FOc
I don’t remember that lol
Oh God it’s back
What’s back?
I don’t want to say it again but…….
I CALLED IT :v

i dont see what u guys are talking about
They’re just crying as usual.
If Steven Universe is good for anything, it’s for pacifying piss babies.
ziggy came back as a new account. I think all of its post where deleted.
whats the deal with this ziggy person and everything that has been going on here ?
A troll that keeps coming here and spouting racist nonsense and whatnot.
Flag, ignore, repeat.
And here comes the thought police.
Public service announcement:
To take care of the you know what, just handle it like the Bye Bye Man.
Don’t think it, don’t say it.
You should make an account so I stop getting you mixed up with it xD
How does one make an account?
You can make a disqus account and it works here. 🙂
Just a heads up, I might change my online handle.
It should say like log in or something somewhere, if not, you can just google Disqus and make a Disqus account and it will work here
Will try to work on that.
I thought they were the same person.
Gamexplain said something in a discussion that caught my interest. Since all the trailers and stuff say “Switch Presentation 2017”, do you think that we’ll see one of these every year? Could this be the new format for directs? But then again, we have a direct tomorrow, even though it is game specific.
So, you mean that in 2018 we may get another presentation like the last one?
That’s suggested by calling the presentation “Switch Presentation 2017” and not just “Switch Presentation” or “Switch Reveal Presentation”.
I’m already excited for that presentation…. We may get Mother 3 or better yet MOTHER 4
What if they’ve waited so long to give us Mother 3 because they’re working on an HD remake? :O
Leaked image from the new Mother 3 HD remake

maybe! but i think they will return back to direct formats
I hope so, giving us like 2 directs all year (last year) wasn’t enough IMO.
because there was barely anything to show lol
True, but when Iwata was alive we had a direct like every month or so, and ever since his passing we haven’t had many.

I’ll have you know that my entire team was wiped out by Totem Lurantis and I only cried for 20 minutes.
Go right in
Not until I’m through with him
ur not even in it yet
*Intimidation check*
I’m playing a nuzlocke right now with Popplio and I’m scared for that fight.
I’ll be praying for you. ;-;
If I even get that far, I guess.

Welcome (officially)!
After six years of lurking, it’s so weird to be an official member.
SIX YEARS!?!
Wow, I can’t believe you’ve been a guest here for so long! xD
Yeah, I was a lurker. ^^;
I actually found out about Pokejungle when Black and White was first coming out in Japan.
I’ve been here ever since.
*Cracks Knuckles* if thou wish to join the clan, you must pass a series of increasingly tedious and life threatening trials
I saw the Regular Show finale, I’m ready for anything.
Alright first trial
I will blindfold you and lead you into a Urasring populated forest while you’re slathered in berries and honey,
I am awaited!
Nice! Now you are a Official member!! 😀
No, you’re just Ziggy Fartdust.
is he really?
Yeah.
😮 plot twist
wow that literally fooled me.
How can you tell? Same IP?
I have no reason not to trust the mods but I’m not sure I buy this.
Refresh the page, his comments are awaiting moderation °-°
Yeah, and that’s what makes me confused. Mostly because Ziggy wouldn’t be able to last that long without going off on some rant.
Yeah I’m confused too. This user has posted nothing but regular conversation. He even claimed he played through the game to the point Lurantis swept his team and Ziggy clearly didnt
No, I recall some of the earlier comments were along the same ideals. It’s not hard to be manipulated.
.-.
So… Maybe Ziggy it’s just a fake Persona created by Yuki
Seems like a stretch but the mods know more than I do.
Lol you’re trying to fool us right?RIGHT????!??
Wait no
the mods see more then us 🙁
Knew it!
…I would like to point out I’m not.
You use the same IP and have similar email adresses…

This should have been in the presentation

NOW I HEAR IT
Yeah it took me a few minutes to recognize the themes lol
i heard unova wild battle theme
I heard the gym theme….
i mean its a mix so of course we heard two different
I know and I also know that this is almost a hour long and would occupy too much time, but still, it’s Pokemon 😉
i mean i put the video as a timestamp so it would right to the pokemon
They’re so hard to recognize tho
i think the background helps lol
Tru lol
I was watching this for five minutes until I saw the instrument I play, the Bari Saxophone.
