@harouhiko I wonder if maybe Retro Studios has been working on a Metroid Prime trilogy HD release? Why have they been so quiet for so long? The suspense is killing me.
@Heavyarms55 being a little over dramatic don’t you think? Sony PS4 had the same sales figures in the same time span, and with Pokémon and smash coming out this year, along with other surprises I think Nintendo Switch will do just fine.
Best Buy has a pre order up for the official Nintendo brand GameCube controller adapter. I’ll just pre order that and use my wavebird/GameCube controllers!
@Giygas_95 agreed! I personally would also love to see other worlds in the Nintendo realm! Breath of the wild track, super mario odyssey track, octopath traveler track, and a Metroid Prime track!
I wasn’t completely disappointed with the direct, but with no sign of Metroid, Nothing from Retro Studios, no online service info, and no more ports to hold us over through the end of the year I’m a little concerned.
I’ve been waiting for an announcement from Retro Studios 5 years now. If I don’t hear anything from them this year, I will assume the studio is finished and will no longer care about any future projects they put out especially considering they’re not even working on Prime.
@CairiB I finally found something a little more current about Seasons of Heaven. There was a developer interview on YouTube I watched and apparently they are just a very small studio. They had to shop the game around to a new studio to be able to continue development. Along with that the developer just had a kid so he also had his hands full. I do believe he eluded in the interview that the game would first be released in France sometime around June or so which makes me think that it should be released elsewhere around the fall?
On the contrary; Nintendo didn’t specify that it was a port (and they seem to have no issue telling people when a game is indeed a port). That being said; I think when E3 hits we will all find out that Smash for Switch is in fact, a new game and not a port.
Would love to hear a Retro Studios announcement and since we all know there is a Prime 4 coming, it would be nice if Nintendo could give us something in the mean time to pass the time; for example Metroid Prime Trilogy HD?
Part 1 had its limitations as well but it didn’t stop me from enjoying the game. I will be purchasing part 2 for sure. I’m also hoping that by the time part 3 comes out, there would be a physical release.
@Joeynator3000 20 bucks too expensive? As opposed to what? Xbox or PS4? They’re like 100 bucks a year dude. What world do you live in? That’s super cheap.
I liked miitomo, but my issue was I had little to no friends that were interested in using it. I tried to convince some to download it and create their own mii but I never got past 9 friends. I really did like how you could create a character and it would be the same character for my.nintendo. I hope Nintendo incorporates something like this with your Switch Profile.
Seeing as how this game is IMPOSSIBLE to find here in any retail location in the US a budget selects option would be more than welcome. I still haven’t found a copy myself.
@davey1983 I know it probably means nothing and I realize that but at least it’s something. I mean, what else can we do? Not buy their games? Well that’s easy for me seeing as the only thing they’ve ported to switch is FIFA and though I realize a lot of people like the FIFA franchise, I am one of the few that could care less for it. And even if they ported battlefront, it’s still not a proper Star Wars representation.
EA doesn’t deserve the Star Wars license. Already signed the petition to have it revoked. I’m sorry, but battlefront is not a good representation of what a proper star wars game should be.
@RaphaBoss on the contrary; it IS impressive that Mario Odyssey and Zelda BOTW has no competition which probably helps drive the sales of the Switch. Your logic is twisted.

Re: Gallery: Surprise, 8BitDo's N30 Pro 2 Is Another Must-Have Switch Controller
@ittleamber thank you for saying that. It bothered me too that they compared it to a super famicom. It’s clearly an N64 themed controller.
Re: Super Mario Party Bundle Arrives In North America On 16th November

Well, the system is crashing. I can't even see what deals they have because their servers can't handle the volume.

Re: Talking Point: What Games Are You Playing This Weekend?
The Fall Part 2
Re: Review: The Fall Part 2: Unbound (Switch eShop)
Part 1 had its limitations as well but it didn’t stop me from enjoying the game. I will be purchasing part 2 for sure. I’m also hoping that by the time part 3 comes out, there would be a physical release.
Re: Feature: Unbinding The Fall Part 2 with Developers Over The Moon
Day 1 purchase for me. I’ve been waiting for the sequel ever since I played part one on Wii U. Seems like years ago that I played it...

@Tempestryke you make it sound like BOTW is an incomplete game without the DLC. Spoiler alert: it’s not.
Re: Poll: Have Your Say on the Best Main Series 3D Mario and Zelda Games
@BlueOcean alright alright I get it. You obviously don’t like BOTW.
Re: Poll: Have Your Say on the Best Main Series 3D Mario and Zelda Games
