Fire Emblem Engage – The Fell Dragon Rises (Nintendo Switch)youtube thumb
Thinking about it; is kind of lame that the new 'mainline' Fire Emblem game is just another shallow crossover relying on callbacks to all the previous ones to get nostalgic attention from the fanboys.

They've done this so many times now, like the first Fire Emblem Warriors or the Fire Emblem Heroes gacha.
Would have been better if it had been a new game of a defined setting that stood on its own two feet.

I don't really care for Fire Emblem but I still don't get what's up with that. I know they've done direct sequels in the series, but why a series crossover? Just seems like a lazy way to boost sales even though every game since Awakening has done pretty well.

Nintendo is suing the palworld devs, but instead of monster designs it seems like its something to do with game mechanics?
https://www.nintendo.co.jp/corporate/release/en/2024/240919.html

Fuck nintendo, they patent the most generic basic shit as a 'game mechanic' and then use it as an excuse to bully people with their lawyers.

Fuck nintendrones more, when the company goes out of its way to fuck them over in terms of not making old media readily availible while hounding anyone using emulation. Just a bunch of asian dinosaurs thinking they are electronic emperors.

At this rate, it's not impossible. I don't wanna lose out on Metroid threads nor do I want to miss out on Mii maker threads (assuming Tomodachi uses the Miitopia character creator).

Remember that American port studio Nintendo acquired from Embracer?

No thread specifically for the MKW Direct, huh? I'm guessing 8moe is where all the reacting is. Ah well, it's just Mario Kart.

This is true. I'm people. Obviously it sucks that it's expensive, but oh well. I feel I can justify the price when I get hundreds to thousands of hours out of multiple titles.

that direct was meaningless
what happened to normal, super nintendo/n64-styled battle mode?
it's not like those were missing in later editions, just that 8 decided to go in a lazy direction

If they needed to convince people they should have showered us with exiting numbers. number of tracks, number of characters, etc. I'm a bit disapointed that costumes are unlocked in the food, feels like either an unfun gatcha system or a dumb fetch quest (depending on wheter or not the costumes are rng).
With donkey kong having some voice acting I also expected more voices overall. Maybe a commentator for races?

I don't really like mario kart and I'm not a fan of the system's default colour, did any leaker hint for other bundles or colors coming in the future?

So Nintendo made word of prices regarding the tariffs. The system itself and the games will remain the same price, but all the accessories (pro controller, joycons, camera, dock, etc.) will see a price increase, in addition older nintendo products being subject to price increases as well

This will sound stupid but
If you were to make a nintendo account on PC, you could later link it to your switch/switch2 account right? I'm guessing the answer is "yes retard", but im asking because i just realized that my last nintendo console was the wiiu and i did the bare minimum to get online working on just the console and never did care to even properly finish setting it up any more than that.

Ahh, alright alright
Anyway, do you guys think we'll be getting splatoon 4/splatoon 3+ as a launch title for switch 2, or are they going to wait some time with releasing it

who knows, i was thinking they could do some shadow drop a few days before the console is set to actually release.to drum up extra hype since splatoon is a big thing, especially in asia.

Mayby it's both.

No way we have an unnanounced splatoon anything in the lauch windows, it would have been shown already.
splatoon 3 is compatible to the global performance enhancements but it already runs really well anyway. I think we might get a spaltfest at the very best.
that said they might start teasing a splatoon 4 in the near future, that's one game that will help people doing the jump from Switch to Switch2 for sure. I dream of an holiday release, but realistically they are going to wait for next year imo.

Yea, you can make an account and later link it to the switch. You can also link your 3ds/wiiu account as well but all that’s really good for is friend suggestions through those systems and linking whatever funds you have on those accounts to your main nintendo account
>>431430
A shadowdrop for a new splatoon wouldn’t work, especially to drum up hype which takes time to build. At best we’ll get a switch 2 update for improved graphics/framerate and maybe mouse support
>>431447
They have been doing seasonalfest/big run reruns and we are slated for a summerfest in july, which may be the last one as they prep for splatoon 4. On that note projections do have it for a ‘26 release given it’s been in the works since a year and a half ago. We’ll likely see it in the next direct

I really hope they don't implement mouse controls in splatoon, the inertia is part of the games physics, making it "as fast as you drag" will kill the game for most people (including me). I don't want CSgo faggotry in my colorfull cephalopods game

Considering the circumstances this is the best-case scenario. Not ideal, but far better than the system going up to $700
