>rail grinding in mariokart >costume items What?

Oh god damn, there's a lot of characters

Had a feeling they would show off Mario Kart first. It was the first new game teased when Switch 2 revealed after all.

OPEN WORLD MARIO RACER BURNOUT PARADISE: MARIO EDITION

>>1084957 I think it's funny, definitely a wild pick. Some autists are going to complain about it unfortunately. >>1084959 Can't wait to see Daisy's outfits

>open world mario kart oh god

>>1084957 To be fair, the list of characters that haven’t been added is getting kind of short. Might as well make it fun and add a cow.

This is genuinely insane holy shit

The graphics look very pretty.

>>1084966 Yeah, I think it looks great

>>1084968 I know Nintendo wanted to introduce open world to several of their series after BotW, but Mario Kart was never one I'd guess.

But will it be better than Diddy Kong Racing or Wacky Races for the dreamcast?

>open world mario kart with free roaming Launches same day as switch 2 more info on 17th

>The C button is just a push to talk feature huh

>>1084974 I thought about that too.

Is this dubbed over Japanese? Their lips don't match what they're saying.

>the sound is off-sync >for the audio chat feature

>>1084977 Dunno,the Japanese video have different people just nips there

I think we get it guys, anybody who's played a game in the last 17 years gets a chat feature

>>1084979 That's probably why. Nogs make the game go out of sync.

>Nintendo Switch 2 camera GUYS THE KINECT IS BACK

Jesus they're really leaning into this. This is Wii U tier cringe, can we please move on Nintendo.

Can i get a controller without this shit

YOU EVER PLAYED DISCORD?!?! NOW, LAUNCHING, DISCORD TOOO

I think you should show us fucking games

>>1084983 One the things that I liked about the WiiU was the MiiVerse, but unfortunately the Switch doesn't have that.

How are they still talking about this? My god.

GameShare is cool, but I think this is something Steam has had since 2011.

GameShare like the DS had. 2-player with ONE cartridge.

>>1084989 And the connection will still be absolutely terrible

>They're advertising 120fps over 4k GOOD

i literally just want to see the games

It looks like a Steam Deck now >120FPS 1080 Ain't no game going to support that

>>1084994 Full on dlss

Mouse controls confirmed lol

>>1084914 It looks like you were on the money, Anon.

>Mouse control fucking called it

>>1084999 It's REAL, anon. It's REEEAL!

I'm glad they're at least getting all this TECHNOLOGY out of the way first, but wow this block of nogaems is jarring after that great Mario Kart reveal.

>>1084999 Maybe anon’s uncle really DOES work at Nintendo…

>advertising stereo sound This would impress me if I were a dad in 1966.

I hope i can remove this shit of mic and all that

>tfw my brother-in-law bought a switch literally less than a week and a half ago how you think he is taking the news?

If sound is desynced for anyone else, I switched over the Nintendo UK stream and it seems the audio there's fine.

That's still not a lot of internal storage by today's standards. At least it can do 4K HDR output to a TV.

Looks like they improved the dock's tech.

They finally added a fan to the dock. I'm still kinda surprised they never made the dock more of a deal

A pack-in, kind of like Aperture Desk Job and Astro's Playroom.

This background music reminds me of Terraria.

Here's where you'll put the paperclip!

Just make a guide why does it need a game

>>1085017 gen alpha attention spans

>consoles are finally KB+M-pilled RPGs and FPS will actually be playable, praise be

>you have to pay for Welcome Tour WEW

>a games to explain how the system works >it's a paid digital game instead of a free inclusion

Jesus fuck we're almost halfway through and they've shown one (1) game, what??

>Still no analog triggers lmao even

>>1085023 That was the same mistake they made with nintendo land.

Is this proprietary storage?

Launch date

>>1085023 That is incredibly retarded. >>1085025 I still wonder why they didn't brought back analog triggers.

Mario Party

2002 ass party game

Existing games get graphics bump.

What are those cameras look like a early 00s video quality lmao >>1085031 >I still wonder why they didn't brought back analog triggers. There is the noXbox controller

>>1085034 Not just graphics apparently. Mouse mode & camera support.

I hope it gets better soon, this doesn't feel like the console's big reveal. >gimmicks >ports >lots of minor technical details

Why am I not surprised that you have to pay to upgrade?

Why is the Japanese stream so ahead?

>upgrade pack for existing owners Presumably cheaper than a full game purchase?

>>1085042 The stream desynchronised

>>1085043 OY VEY!

No games only paid DLCs

>more fucking ports Nintendo, what is this?

Fucking Google Maps for Zelda.

MOUSE CONTROLLED METROID FPS

Are you guys ready for more Smash autism?

>>1085050 Yes

Jesus Christ finally, new games. It's neat to see Prime 4 can be mouse controlled.

>>1085049 I knew they would do this!

I'm in tears

>>1085056 Stairs.

This looks rough

This is so funny. >Japanese dev discovers new gaming device known as a "mouse"

MAXIMUM REPRESENTATIVE HANDICAPPED GAME

>>1085056 They know their audience has the disabilities

>>1085056 I cannot BELIEVE they thought this was a good idea

More ports yay

>Elden Meme of course

I knew it, I just knew there was gonna be an Elden Ring port.

>>1085056 With games these days having vitiligo sliders, will this title have a down syndrome slider?

mech game let me guess its pvp...

Oh Elden meme.

More ports

Please god tell me this is a singleplayer mecha game

FUCK DA OSCARS

>Split Fiction No fucking thanks.

Freaking really? EA Sports?...

>the Wizard game is coming to Switch 2 I can already hear the butthurt.

>Hogwarts Legacy using mouse controls So third parties are actually going to use the gimmicks now?

Probably have one big tease at the end?

Are they bringing all those games to say "look we can run them now"?

I actually like the Hitman reboots, but I wish they made another like Blood Money.

>>1085083 Yes.

I still can't get over the cripple league.

FF9 remake

>>1085085 IO are making a new 007 game actually

>>1085088 Nvm i got baited she looked like garnet at first

I'll be disappointed if devs don't use the mouse controls for shooter games.

>>1085088 >>1085090 I got baited too.

I was really hoping they'd finally show off Project 007, not say "yeah hey we're still making it :)".

>LIke a Dragon: 0 This is kinda huge, no?

PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS PORTS

Oh bravely default. Kinda nice actually.

>Zelda Warriors 3 Why not use Xenoblade instead?

So Switch 2 has games?

0 probably could have run on the original switch.

>>1085099 But don't you know that decent hardware and FPS don't matter anon?

>That hair Ugly like sin

I'll be honest I'm really tired of this zelda.

It looks like I forgot to post a few. I actually liked the Hitman reboots, but I wish they'd make another like Blood Money.

Going to play all of this on the Steamy Dick 2

>Gamecube FINALLY

>>1085106 Fuck just make Hyrule warriors 2 already.

Just rename it to Nintendo Port 2 already

>show one new game <HERE'S MORE PAID ONLINE SHIT Jesus this is a terrible Direct

>>1085106 >AoC 2 Get the fuck outta here

>>1085094 Question is which VAs they've (re)hired. Some like Nishitani's are already deceased.

What happened to og hyrule warriors Zelda? Remember the witches too.

WOW, THE SWITCH IS FINALLY POWERFUL ENOUGH TO PLAY FUCKING GAMECUBE GAMES BRAVO, NINTENDO

GameCube on Virtual Console or whatever they call it now.

>>1085110 Feeding everyone a spoonful of sugar in between the ladles of shit

>>1085115 This is never getting more than 10 games and no melee

That controller is gonna be sold out very quickly

>>1085115 How will no analog triggers work?

I can really see why they need to hold this off til April.

I shouldn't be too shocked, Deltarune and Undertale were huge in Japan.

BADASS

>greasy Randy eh >>1085106 At least this Age of Calamity won't play at 6FPS, but that was one weak warriors title.

Randy why do you insist on being the face of your company?

Was OK with deltatroon chp. 1 but chapter 2 sucked so much dick I refuse to touch the rest

>HI, I'M RANDY FROM GEARBOX I know who you are you fucking faggot.

Why is the left bumper button so damn small compared to the Z button? That's bad design.

>>1085131 Authenticity I guess but yeah they should have just put another full sized z button there.

RTS games are coming with mouse support. Not my cup of autism, but many were wanting this on a portable system.

Twitch stream dead

I guess I'll have to post some of these later, the stream froze.

Finally some good Idol shit isntead of all that garbage

>Soul Calibur 2 port I just want a new Soul Calibur game w/o all the meter bullshit.. >>1085127 "Hey, buy the game again on the Switch 2 for mouse support!!!"

>>1085134 So did YouTube.

>>1085131 They're appealing to the same demographic that think the design for the GC controller is good.

Reminder for the Japanese stream: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nkaodTSlhbU

>>1085137 >good >idol Into the volcano you go

They took the "switch can't run this" personally didn't they ? >>1085142 i just wanted to see cute girls anon

>>1085137 Link to a working stream please.

>>1085143 WATCH ANIME GET OUT OF MY HOBBY

FF7 Remake Part 1 confirmed, Part 2 is a big fat no.

UK version working https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1uGRs-ispRU

>>1085144 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nkaodTSlhbU

Big day for annoying people

Actual new footage?

>stream froze on Jewtube >comes back with video far behind the audio It's finally sync'd again, but that was shit. Crashed with no survivors.

>>1085143 Play some JRPGs with cute girls instead. >>1085151 I'm not surprised if Ubisoft will put Asscred Shadows as well.

>>1085155 On April Fools a few gaming sites listed Bloodborne on Switch. People thought it was a joke, they just did it a day early.

>It was actually Bloodborne 2 WHAT THE FUCK?

>>1085156 >>1085145 You guys didn't understand i just wanted to see cute girls compared with the rest of the shit that was showing

It's Nightrein

>they got Bloodborne 2 Sony's fucking dead

Did that frog have jiggly tits?

So when's the PC port?

>>1085163 Yes

Well it's basically Bloodborne

We are getting bloodborn 2 on switch before pc port

>>1085166 I don't think they can use BLoodborne title but Fromsoftware wanted to make one

>>1085163 >>1085165 Doubledeck reported running to his drawing tablet at three times the speed of sound

New kirby?

From Software vampire game

>Air Ride 2 wew lad

>>1085171 They arr rook the same to me.

Smash fags btfo

Item bounce 2

>Samurai is doing a Kirby again What in tarnation

Air Ride is back.

Is this a new Banjo game or something?

>3D Donkey Kong game WHAT

That movement is fucking tasty

>DK FINALLY

So we finally see this, this has been rumored for over a year.

Finally some good fucking food

Man I really fucking hate this new DK design

>Japanese only what?

>>1085187 Agreed. Miss the old design.

>>1085053 >>1085060 What are the ergonomics going to be like for Joycon mice? I'm not sure at a glance if it'll be as comfortable as an actual mouse.

3D Donkey Kong is back. I was wondering if they'd ever do another non-sidescrolling DK

Verdict? I give it a 5/10. Way too much time on unimportant minutia and ports, nowhere near enough new games shown. The new games did look good, but there were maybe four of them across the entire hour.

Thanks for wasting my time with 50 minutes of my life with useless ports and those explanations faggots.

>Switch has games I want to play >Don't want to give Nintendo ANY money whatsoever because the fact they ripped out Free Online to make it paid offends me on a consumer-friendly level <pirating means no multiplayer for a good deal of those games (Mario Kart for instance)

>>1085192 I think it's closer to a 6/10 myself. There were some good looking games here, but yeah, too much time was focused on ports and upgrades for previous games.

>>1085192 7/10 I only care for jailbreaking viability.

DK's new look is.. different. Game looks fun. Smash the ever-living-shit out of everything. Punch through the ground. Yank chunks of earth up & ride or throw them. Crazy strong ape.

>>1085192 If not for the last ten minutes it would be a solid 3, 5 because of Danky Kang and I Can't Believe It's Not Bloodborne. The showcase was only an hour and still felt like it was padding for time. Take the third party games/ports and put them in the showcase last week, make the technical stuff its own video, and do a 15 minute Direct focusing on the new stuff.

btw, Croc Legend of the Gobbos is releasing today on Switch eshop.

>>1085041 Free update for current owners, or fork over more cash?

I expected at least two more first party titles announced than what we got. No 3D Mario? There hasn't been a new one since Odyssey. No FE? Didn't they push back the Switch 2 to have more games? Where are they?

>>1085191 I wonder if koizumi is working on it.

>>1085187 IIRC, some anon said that the design that we know is made by RareWare and Miyamoto didn't like it. >>1085193 I find it retarded that they didn't show a single glimpse of how the UI of the Switch 2 will look like. Instead, they spent so much on the new chat feature that's pretty much Discord. >>1085192 I'll give a 5/10. Nintendo should fucking do a separate Direct that talks about ports.

>>1085171 >biting Hope that's one of more grapple moves and not another backstab animation Also mounts are back One-handed(?) automatics, ringblades, and more gravity-based magic's in

>>1085192 >The new games did look good, but there were maybe four of them across the entire hour. That’s why there was so much filler, the new games are interesting but they didn’t have much to show for them besides title cards and mini trailers/teasers. >>1085194 Stay strong anon, your morals are more important

>>1085197 Looks a lot like Seth Rogan Kong from the Mario Movie. Coincides with Sega starting to give Sonic/Shadow the electrical effects from the Sonic movies starting with Shadow Generations. Further synergy is likely to happen.

>>1085192 9/10, I see a lot of potential in the launch titles and stealing the BB sequel from Sony's nose is hilarious. I don't care about the lawnmower sim, but the rest seem great and have a lot of potential to surprise and excel. Donkey Kong in particular seems like the Hulk 3D platformer that never was. Also the upgrade pack seems like a better deal than buying a Switch edition again, I'd wish for free content for old buyers but I'll take what I can get. >>1085200 DLC for old owners, Switch 2 cart owners get it for free as part of the package.

>>1085200 More money. Paid upgrade packs.

>>1085208 >DLC for old owners Damn. Was hoping it would be a free update.

>>1085171 >Bloodborne 2 on the Switcheroo 2 Sony is dead lol

>>1085194 Ill get one when Homebrew becomes available.

>>1085201 >Didn't they push back the Switch 2 to have more games? Where are they? If this is their current lineup after the delay, I understand why it happened in the first place. They had to do a feature on the PS2 EyeToy styled party game.

Not really seeing a system seller. I suppose to corporate mariocart counts.

>>1085214 There's a flashcart for Switch, but I somehow doubt it'll work on this.

>>1085216 ...Anon, Mario Kart is probably the biggest selling Nintendo game nowadays.

>>1085216 Pretty sure Mario Kart 8 was the best selling Switch game.

>>1085149 I mocked believers but their faith paid off, supposedly.

If you haven't played Croc, I recommend it. Classic PS1 game remaster is coming soon & to Switch today.

>>1085224 It was only three seconds and it had no new footage. Team Cherry has missed release dates before, I put no stock in this.

>>1085221 >>1085223 I wasn't being sarcastic. Just disappointed.

So bloodborne 2 is a multiplayer only game roflmao

>>1085233 Where was this stated?

>>1085027 Okay, I looked up MicroSD Express & it looked like SanDisk was the only brand that had any to buy. Samsung supposedly makes them or is going to, but I didn't find any Samsung ones. An article said there were no devices supporting them & the thermals are bad causing throttling. So it's not like Sony's bullshit with Vita & PSP's proprietary memory cards, but MicroSD Express is a new spec I hadn't heard of. For price, it's $59.99 on Amazon for a 256GB MicroSD Express. It says "Up to 650MB/s Write, 210MB/s Sustained Write" so you can clearly see the heat & throttling issues of this storage. I think that's par for the course with a lot of SD cards & USB sticks, they get hot & throttle.

>>1085238 Anon all the soulslikes are multiplayer. That doesn't mean it's like Nightreign.

>>1085238 It's legit: https://nitter.poast.org/NintendoAmerica/status/1907432474759569770

>>1085238 Monkeypaw'd

>>1085237 Whats the read speed?

>>1085232 I'm glad they added voice chat finally, but damn do I not look forward to seeing people's faces. That is immersion breaking.

>>1085233 >>1085236 >>1085238 >>1085240 Wouldn't the game be essentially bricked without paid online then? Surely it has single player capability.

>>1085244 >Wouldn't the game be essentially bricked without paid online then? Yes and?

>>1085243 You can probably choose to not see anyone.

Voice chat is great, but I also hope they add a message system too. >>1085246 Really hope it is optional. Last thing I want to see are IRL faces in vidya.

>>1085243 I wonder if the camera can detect people's faces. It would be weird if someone records the camera that isn't a face and its something else.

>>1085248 You mean DIQQ, right?

Won't people be using the camera to stream offensive and illegal content?

>>1085238 >Fromslop >Multiplayer >Switch 2 These words together don't really sell.

>>1085250 Shit like that.

>>1084914 I'm glad they added the mouse mode gimmick, but more glad that third parties are actually going to USE that gimmick so you can have RTS & FPS games on this. In the past Nintendo didn't even use their own gimmicks in first-party titles. (No touchscreen support for BotW) Second place feature: GameShare. 2-player using 1 game cartridge like Nintendo DS did with DS Download Play. 4K HDR or 1080p 120Hz could be nice, but I just don't have that much faith in the hardware until I see more games running on it. The paid upgrade packs for existing Switch game owners are hand-rubbing AF, so I hope they are at least CHEAP, but I doubt it. Prob gonna be like 40 bucks at minimum to upgrade a game you already bought on Switch.

>>1085192 It's a little weaker then the switch 1 presentation. But that was helped greatly by the BotW trailer, regardless of how you feel about the game. This one had more surprised but was a little too slow paced compared to their usual directs. There was some cool stuff in here but having to pay for simple resolution upgrades and performance boost to existing games is gay.

>>1085238 Anon, Demon's Souls was multiplayer. The multiplayer part was probably only added so people new to Souls game would know they could play with friends. There's nothing stating that this is a "multiplayer only" game.

>>1085263 > There's nothing stating that this is a "multiplayer only" game. The gameplay footage looked mostly single-player & I saw a part where a second player (or bot) was summoned. So any multiplayer potential seemed like all the other Souls games from what was shown.

>>1085262 OG switch presentation had Mario Odyssey, Splat 2, Xenoblade 2, SMT V and the big BotW trailer. It was considerably better than this.

>>1085270 Naw, it's gonna be scalped to hell & probably be over $1,000 on eGay.

>>1085270 Fucking hell.

>>1085263 >>1085238 Looks like it really might be just a Nightreign after all. Lame.

>>1085270 Imagine paying 80 to 100 buckaroos to >Not get a game manual >Getting a gutted version of the full game >You have to download patches or the game itself I know this isn't new but the excuse they gave before was "games are to cheap! we would lose money!" Please god, let this be what crashes the industry with no survivors People will buy and support this wholeheartedly

>>1085268 We did know about Mario and Splat before hand, but Xenoblade was a really nice surprise. I forgot about that, and they kept a lot of the 3rd party stuff for a sizzle reel. You're right anon.

You know Niggerpill is running low on material when game and console prices is what triggers him. You are pirating your games, right anon?

>>1085293 >You are pirating your games, right anon? No, I still buy games. And because I detest everything Nintendo is doing, I won't be giving them any of my money.

>>1085293 I only play gamed on PC, so yes don't engage him just report

>>1085270 >the Mario Kart World bundle adds $50 >the main page for the game itself says it'll cost $80 <Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price. Actual price may vary I'm just confused at this point.

>>1085294 It'll happen if the people developing it aren't retarded. It's a pretty big if. Developing it in secret and dropping it out of nowhere is the way to go, but people these days are such attention whores, so who knows.

>>1085270 If games cost that much, Switch 2 upgrades are probably gonna cost a ridiculous amount like $30-40 per game

>>1085301 If they were smart, they would collaborate on a Git server over Tor or I2P while practicing maximum OPSEC, but most devs are too incompetent to use anything other than GitHub.

Is it common from this place to go full doomposting after a direct or is it one person hopping IPs?

>>1085312 It's probably a good thing those retards are being replaced by AI.

>>1085315 >or is it one person hopping IPs? How new are you to have never experienced niggerpill's meltdowns?

>>1085315 Incomplete video games being 100 dollars a pop is a pretty big deal.

>>1085315 I see you're new around here. Yes, it's one guy IP hopping, and yes, he's hated everywhere in the webring, not just here.

>>1085312 How would their patreon accounts work?

>>1085329 Monero

>1085328 Why are you you quoting yourself, Willy? You're supposed to show how other people agree with you, not your samefag posts.

>Organic Doomsaying (1)s with repetitive posting styles state and terminology niggerpill is a psyop Remember to brag about it on Foxdick and post your epic defeatist screenshots on cuckchan before collecting your paycheck. Glad you learned to consistently use ((()))), it really helps sell your opinions as natural. >>1085268 >Miner Dong >Air Ride 2 >MK world >BB2 Not-Nightreign edition >Daemon X Machina Anthem done right edition >Zelda lawnmower 3: Smell of Wild cut Grass 2 Seems like a decent lineup, it's missing Monolith, Smash and Atlus contributions but Metroid might as well be a TP situation and some expansions give a decent content for people getting into it. Price is a downer, but it's a surprise that inflation took this long to hit Nintendo. >>1085294 >>1085299 Oh no, people will have to practice ancient traditions like OpSec, not hunting after new releases and not drawing attention of yourself when pirating and emulating. Yuzu devs were a blight upon the emulation scene regardless, their antics disrupted the shaky balance of the scene and deserved everything they got and more.

>>1085331 Thats pretty limiting.

>>1085336 I'm pretty sure there are clients out there that allow you to make recurring donations.

>>1085335 >Miner Dong I actually like this one, but I wouldn't consider it an ending show-stopper. In the 2017 direct it would have been a middle game at best. >Air Ride 2 We saw basically nothing and frankly Forgotten Land wasn't too long ago so I didn't feel starved for Kirby. >MK world I like the open world aspect but the price is a huge turnoff. I'll look for daisy duke Peach art at least. >BB2 Not-Nightreign edition It's a fromsoft extraction game. It's literally dead on arrival. That trailer tricked a lot of people into thinking it was a real game, which I guess was the point. >Daemon X Machina Anthem done right edition Hopefully it's good. Wasn't a huge fan of the original. But again, not a huge show stopper. >Zelda lawnmower 3: Smell of Wild cut Grass 2 One of the most baffling decisions. TotK's characters sucked. Trying to make a game out of the zero personality past characters is certainly a decision. I'd have rather Koei made a musou based on a different Nintendo franchise.

>>1085293 I blame OAG/Billy for mentioning 8chan in the first place.

>>1085329 They would have to actually have a real job.

>>1085275 I really don't understand this shit. Why focus on making a multiplayer-only game exclusive to a system meant to be portable? When I am using a portable system portably, I am not at home connected to muh wifi. The system doesn't even accept SIM for data plans, so...?

>>1085342 What? You mean to tell me that "everyone" DOESN'T live in a bustling city, where hundreds of families live in the same building, everyone takes public transpirtation to and from work/school, and public Wifi is available everywhere? Are you a Luddite or Amish?

>>1085342 Because Nintendo probably paid for it to show off NSO

Croc Legend of the Gobbos Remaster is out on Switch now.

>>1085342 Nintendo has no idea what they're doing.

>>1085342 I believe they think Fromsoft fans will jump on NSO right away cause of this. Is there an actual couch coop Souls game out there?

>>1085320 >there are people in this very thread that thought nintendo would have done things right >after all the scummy, slimy bullshit they done in the last 15 years There is a reason why is morally correct to pirate nintendo games and not give them a single penny, it's like giving money to a crackhead expecting this time he will actually use it to get clothes for a interview. I will emulate Metroid prime 4 and that's it, if they make the switch 2 "un-emulatable" then i will simply forget nintendo exists.

>>1085270 It's a bit less than the mid-range Deck oled (549.00) but more than the base Deck (399.00), but you have to remember that the deck has a fuck-load more functionality than any traditional console ever will. That game price is absolutely stupid though, I hope homebrew neets crack this thing wide open.

>Will we get a new 3D Mario game, Nintendo? <You get $90 games and paralyzed basketball

>>1085342 Because extraction shooters were the hot new thing for a few years and ,like Nightreign, this is FromSoft's late contribution for the trend.People are warming up to Nightreign so it's a coinflip if the Switch equivalent will as warmly received eventually. The real question is why is there no Armored Core MP game, the parts are right fucking there and it's already designed with a mission structure. Just make bigger maps and with more bloated enemies and that's 80% of the work done.

>>1085293 I just looked at the thread again to see several (Deleted) posts, I was expecting him to show up after that honestly rather weak Direct.

>>1085354 I think it was fine enough ,especially in comparison to the competition. The PS5 went by a whole generation with only Astro Bot to it's name and Switch 2 already has 5 exclusive games to lord over it. >>1085354 I guess it's wrong to call them "shooters" but they're games where sessions can be definitively split between the times you play with other players to get something and sitting in a lobby until you do without ever finishing them beyond grinding: >Lethal Company and it's clones >Helldivers 2 is pretty much Sony's only smash-hit following TLOU2 >Warframe chugging along for way longer than it had any right to >Deep Rock Galactic had a decent success. >Payday 2 technically counts >Whatever the fuck Capcom had going on with that dinosaur game that crashed and burned.

>>1085360 It's good that they paid attention to the series, but wasn't there a sequel coming out soon? No news, really?

My sole disappointment is the reintroduction of region-locking, meaning I would have to import the Japan-only Switch 2 (although it's less expensive than the global console even when accounting the eventual shipping rates) since pretty much all the stuff I have on the original Switch is from the Japanese Eshop, barring the few former title purchases. However, I did the silly thing use my EU account to play games that I bought from the Japanese account so I guess I'm losing all the saves in the process unfortunately. On the other hand, I suppose the good thing is that Japanese games don't have to worry anymore about making changes for worldwide versions as this reintroduces regional SKUs, which I'm entirely okay with this return.

>>1085363 Is region locking confirmed?

>>1085362 guess it got quietly dropped since the writer disappeared. After all those multiple endings, I don't blame them on not wanting to make a canon ending for the third installment.

>>1085364 Only between Nip(which is actually reasonably priced) and the rest of the world. My guess is they're trying to jew people out of people taking advantage of the Yen getting weaker and deal with import taxes.

>>1085364 >According to the Japanese FAQ, the console will be available in both “Japan-Only” and “Multilingual” editions. Only Nintendo Accounts with Japan set as the country can be linked to a “Japan-Only” Switch 2, and the console’s language is Japanese-only. https://www.nintendo.com/jp/switch2/faq/index.html The FAQ also mentions you cannot link an overseas Eshop account on the Japan-only Switch 2 >>1085367 I wouldn't call it "jewish", it seems a good way to avoid the product meant for the home audience in Japan to get scalped to hell (similarly how it happened to the PS5) because of foreigners taking advantage of the low yen value.

>>1084914 Im sad cause there is no scroll wheel. RTS games are gonna still suck. FPShitters are the only ones being pandered to here

>>1085368 That's very weird, so basically Japan can have the option between region locked and region unlocked?

>>1085360 >Good thing they kept the strip poker minigame I was really happy to see that in the trailer. I was worried they'd cut it. Helena looked so cute taking her clothes off.

>>1085363 Why would they even reintroduce region lock in the first place?

>>1085363 >On the other hand, I suppose the good thing is that Japanese games don't have to worry anymore about making changes for worldwide versions I wouldn't be so sure about that.

>>1085360 YYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSS

>>1084959 >rail grinding in mariokart mario kart finally has 5% of the power that sonic riders had https://youtu.be/qI-FZDyvSq4?si=GeY7O02HjVI4D2mR&t=20

>>1085370 You cannot use any digital features from Japan with the global-version console, just like you cannot use any digital features of an overseas account (be european, american, etc.) on the Japan-only console. Foreign physical cartridges of the Switch 1 seem fine on the other hand as long as no DLCs are involved. No idea if Switch 2 cartridges will be region-locked similarly to the 3DS, which could read DS cartridges from any region but not the same for 3DS carts. >>1085372 >currency value of the yen went massively down since the Switch 1 release (which had a similar 1:1 pricepoint between regions too back then) >not wanting to deal with the scalping from gaijins like the PS5 experienced for years

>>1085360 >game coming out for only 40 bucks That's good for a 15 year old port, right? probably the cheapest launch title for the switch 2

>>1084982 same price too >50 dollar camera >110 dollar dock >80 dollar case >90 dollar controller I mean at this point is there a point to the system itself being cheap and using old underpowererd chipsets?

>>1085378 Tranny mod lol

I just noticed that the new joycon used a mice is a pretty cool feature, and apparently the upcoming Metroid Prime 4 supports being played like an old FPS that way. >>1085375 >I wouldn't be so sure about that. Worldwide releases of Japanese games on day 1 have been more a monkey paw than people might want to admit. And there were issues with the Mastercard & Visa card companies stirring shit in Japan as of late, in which Nintendo recently removed the support for the Japanese Eshop in late March. The Switch 2's region-locking is obviously not a 100% foolproof way as Squeenix & Capcom (for instance) can continue to do the usual modern shit by still going multiplatform/global, but for plenty of other third-parties, it's a good step in the direction to me.

>>1085084 they did and nobody liked absolution (I liked it though)

>>1085102 looks like a tribal so much for medieval blonde princess

>>1085375 https://www.nintendo.com/jp/switch2/faq/index.html Here are the facts directly from Nintendo. >For domestic use and multilingual use, the account and body language that can be set are different. In "Nintendo Switch 2 Japanese/domestic only", you can only work with Nintendo accounts that set "Country/Region" to "Japan".

Although in the following Answer it says >All products are not guaranteed for overseas use. My guess that it IS allowed, but might be limited based on the developer/publisher. I could be wrong, would be stupid if they have even soft-region locking.

>>1085107 no wii even though joycons GIVE ME RHYTHM HEAVEN FEVER ALREADY

>>1085390 They're probably saving that for the future.

>have to pay to use my old shit on the new console >40$ for improved framerates goy! >noo we totally didn't lock your framerate to 24 fps so that'd you would pay us :^) Fuck that. I'd rather wait for emulation to work in a decade.

It's funny how instantly the hype died for Duskbloods when everybody realized it was online PvP shit. We witnessed an entire hype cycle in 2 hours.

>>1085394 Is that guy doing a JoJo pose? or is he just stretching.

>>1085396 Bit of both. Dandadan and JoJo has its similarities.

>>1085360 HOLY SHIIIIIIT

>>1085394 In case of Kirby Discovery, there is a whole expansion in addition of the performance/graphic enhancements. Zelda BotW and TotK are more basic by comparison and I argue both titles had bigger problems in regards of the gameplay itself, than a matter of performance which was more a non-issue to me. But at least there is the option to do just an upgrade rather than buying the whole game again.

>>1085401 While the former bit looks like something more reasonable to pay for - it's additional shit far after release - FPS bullshit are what broke totk for me, and made me unable to recommend it to anyone. Comparing it directly to pissstation or xbone releases, Nintendo just has a shittier deal for most titles. I'm not paying $$ for a title to be usable on a new console when it was practically falling apart on release on the old one.

>>1085403 It was the whole thing of breakable weapons that I had a personal problem, killing any will to fight monsters because any equipment were meant to break easily within a single encounter or two. The sequel didn't fix that besides the ability to fusion props to make an improvised weapon. By comparison, Dying Light 1 on Switch was more enjoyable due of weapons being more durable in general but also repairable (over a certain amount of times) and I also preferred far more Age of Calamity even if the hardware could struggle at certain parts in the musou.

>>1085394 >40$ for improved framerates goy! >noo we totally didn't lock your framerate to 24 fps so that'd you would pay us :^) This isn't the real price, right? RIGHT?!

>>1085311 >>region locking most likely coming back please no my japanese account has a shit ton of games already

>>1085406 meme price Shitpost aside, that's been the approx pricing of previous expansions Nintendo has sold. If I was being reasonable, 5-10$ is more likely. 20$ if Nintendo is feeling extra jewish.

Explanation of how Switch 2 carts work https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/68415

>>1085412 What if I don't have internet 24/7?

>>1085413 Then you're basically fucked

>>1085413 It's basically just a replacement of printed download codes that you'd see from certain publishers and retail stores (at a cheaper price than the full packaging) No idea if it mean the game-key cartridge can be re-used into another system afterwards, I doubt that and it seems to be a waste of additional plastic/electronic if so.

>you have to pay for upgrades for games on the Switch 1 despite Microsoft and Sony already allowing it for free >a push for $80 games with Mario Kart of all things >region locking MIGHT be back >you need an internet connection to even play the physical game because it's not even on the fucking cartridge I feel like I'm seeing a slightly-less fucked version of the XBONE when it was revealed, with the saving grace being that the camera isn't forced on people like how the Kinect was planned to and there's nothing I've seen that says anything bad regarding used games. I don't think Nintendo's gonna make it past the Switch 3 if they keep this shit up. The only reason why Switch 2 will do well is because it's running off of goodwill from Switch 1, as well as Nintendrones buying anything with the Nintendo logo on it.

>>1085424 Well that and the only reason the Xbone failed so hard to begin with was because Sony capitalized on showing customers that the PS4 had superior value. You're not seeing Valve capitalize on the Switch 2's failure by announcing a Steam Deck 2, so I doubt it'll fail as hard as the Xboner.

>>1085424 >The only reason why Switch 2 will do well is because it's running off of goodwill from Switch 1, as well as Nintendrones buying anything with the Nintendo logo on it. It's gonna do well in Japan because the shit that gaijins complain about do not affect or matter to them, such as the MSRP as game prices in Japan do not follow such thing (it's entirely up to the publisher there) And once again, game key cartridge is just a new option given to publishers who has usually done the download code print (inside the game case) thingy.

>>1085424 >you need an internet connection to even play the physical game because it's not even on the fucking cartridge

>>1085428 It depends on the publisher/game, same with the current Switch

>>1085428 >>1085429 >>1085427

damn nigga deleting post left and right. Chill out big homie.

>>1085434 What do you expect during a raid?

>>1085424 >you have to pay for upgrades for games on the Switch 1 despite Microsoft and Sony already allowing it for free Most Sony upgrade are not free to be fair. It's actually extremely rare when they are. Still Nintendo probably shouldn't be charging for some of that shit. Kirby I get because it has an expansion and new content. Zelda is just slightly better graphics.

>>1085432 Thing is there will barely be any "regular" game cards on this thing.

>>1085439 Both Square-Enix and Capcom pulled the game download code on the Switch 1, so it's hardly new from them

>>1085427 >because they don't contain the full game data What do they mean by that? So you can't fully play the game when you insert it on your console because you need to download some updates first?

>>1085433 Niggerpill had been IP hopping and spamming for the past few hours, complain in the meta thread. >>1085437 Supposedly it's reserved for big titles or with added functionality, there's a list of games getting the upgrade for free for whatever reason. >>1085439 >Crapcom and Square >Not skimping out whenever they can. Square was too shit to ship KH1 and 2 for the switch and aimed for running them from their cloud, this shit is entirely in their wheelhouse.

>>1085412 But... why? Even if it is as >>1085432 says, why do this? It makes NO sense.

>>1085412 >paying $60 minimum for a 1¢ piece of plastic that acts solely as physical DRM Imagine. >>1085413 Then you don't get to have the console at all, obviously.

>>1085435 > raid isn't just one sperg?

So should we expect a Steam Deck 2 announcement in June or more likely next year. >>1085452 At this point I doubt it. It's probably a group of people.

>>1085360 >Good thing they kept the strip poker minigame Never played Droods 2. What's the context for that scene? How does it go?

>>1085027 No, it's "next generation" SD cards (using PCIe and NVMe interfaces) that are otherwise physically compatible with old slots.

>>1085476 I kinda hope the next gen Steam Deck supports it considering that it's supposed to be as fast as a standard SATA SSD which is very impressive in itself.

>>1085443 No, anon, there is no data. It's a digital download key in cartridge form. You're not misunderstanding that, it's exactly as stupid as it sounds. The "muh physical" argument in shambles.

>>1085496 No, it isn't. You're just purposely misrepresenting what the actual argument is. The argument for physical games is that you have the game. Period. End of story. That's it. The company has absolutely no power over you anymore, whatsoever, no matter what you say or do. They cannot take your account away, thereby stealing your games, simply because you don't worship nonwhites or trannies. They cannot steal your games from you simply because they got tired of hosting a server that cost them $10 a year to run. You are literally a god and they are less than an ant. That's why people argue in favor of physical games. These are not physical games.

>>1085497 Yeah, it's very pointless and I don't even know why it exists. One is better off just buying a digital copy.

I don't understand why there are people confused over this game key card thing. This is what computers did wither their physical games before embracing digital games only. Also, take note on how the next nintendo console will have a webcam and computer mouse functions. It's turning into a computer. Next thing you know there will be a nintendo operating system.

>>1085507 >nintendo operating system. lol imagine that shit

>>1085507 >>1085508 Nintendix

Gonna buy it but not many games for it. 80 dollars for Mario Kart? Nigga please. I don't even want to pay $70 for a game but I want to play DK so I'll probably bite the pillow.

>80 bucks No thanks

>>1085512 What about 10 bux?

>>1085412 I am not paying $80 for a lump of plastic to be able to play a game like this. Emulation will break through this encryption given time and then it'll be useless.

>>1085498 >>1085446 >Even if it is as >>1085432 says, why do this? It makes NO sense. It's a form of DRM (Like how you had to have the PC game disc in the disc drive despite being installed entirely on the computer), and an incentive to have developers release game digitally. Remember that the original Switch significantly scaled it's licensing fees for the game carts with the increasing size of cart. It's why, despite there being Switch carts bigger than Blu-Ray in space, devs were still reducing games to a fraction of their original size, which resulted in shitty textures. >>1085507 >Also, take note on how the next nintendo console will have a webcam and computer mouse functions. It's turning into a computer. Next thing you know there will be a nintendo operating system. So even Nintendo is just embracing their consoles just being a close-system PC.

>>1085517 >switch carts bigger than blu-ray in space Never heard of this. I heard the max size for Switch carts was 32 GB.

>>1085518 And your average single-layer Blu-Ray is 25 GB in space.

>>1085519 >single-layer Who the fuck uses single-layer Blu-Rays?

>>1085517 >Remember that the original Switch significantly scaled it's licensing fees for the game carts with the increasing size of cart. What do you mean? Can you provide a source?

>>1085395 Because people want single player games.

>>1085514 What about no bucks?

>>1085530 https://archive.ph/dtz2n >Another problem with the Switch is that manufacturing costs rise as cartridge capacity increases. In other words, the cost of manufacturing will vary drastically depending on whether you need a 1GB or a 32GB card for your game. Smash Bros. series creator Masahiro Sakurai has mentioned having to compress Super Smash Bros. Ultimate to under 16GB, but even for smaller games, whether it can fit on a 4GB or 8GB cartridge will directly affect how much revenue its developer gets from sales. The developers we talked to mentioned that reducing a game to fit on the target cartridge size was one of the hardest parts of bringing a game to the Switch.

I was wondering how nintendo would fuck things up this generation since it seemed they had it in the bag. Good old fashioned greed.

>>1085535 In my long years of life watching this industry it's always the exact same fucking thing. Game company does well one gen by having generally good practices and games then next gen they think they're untouchable and fuck everything up. It happened with Sony, it happened with Xbox. It's not happened with Nintendo twice.

>>1085427 I hated this decades ago when Valve did it. I bought Half-Life 2 but the full game wasn't on the disc so I had to download it over fucking dial-up. I was so pissed that I paid for the game & it wasn't even complete on the disc.

>>1085536 Problem this time is that the rest of the industry isn't giving much reason to bother with them, so Nintendo basically has free reign to fuck people over because there's no other real competition in town. Soyny is controlled by California with no plans to make a handheld for the Jap audience, and Xbawks is basically dead in the water (and the Japs wouldn't bother with xbawks anyways unless they actually bothered to make a handheld and exclusive games for them).

>>1085534 And they wonder why third-parties hate them? >>1085536 >It's not happened with Nintendo twice. You mean now?

>>1085558 >You mean now? Wii-U and this one were what I was thinking.

>>1085560 What about when they became over-confident with the NES, only for Sega to kick them to the curb, and Nintendo's reponse was to literally resort to government action?

>>1085561 Kind of a mulligan because Nintendo and Sega both started trending down in the 16 bit era. Every Nintendo system sold worse than the last until the Wii. Similar for Sega it's just it killed them eventually.

>>1085439 >>1085432 You telling me there will effectively be NO physical games on Switch 2?

>>1085197 >Mr. Kong, I presume?

>>1085572 >No tits This doesn't Expand Dong.

>>1085572 >already has a banana hoard of porn

Welp, unless you're a paypig you can't even pre-order the Switch 2. Probably will cut down on scalping, though. Most scalpers are lazy these days and won't go to a launch since they're used to using their bots to camp Amazon. https://archive.ph/P5feo
