>DK Nintendo Direct announced
>No thread
Let's change that.
This game is gonna be so damn good.
>>712850050 (OP)This is unrelated to the DK game, it looks good and I liked odyssey.
How many exclusive games do you as an anon consider to make a console worth buying?
>>712850050 (OP)I just want Odyssey 2, man
>>712850265Just wait for Mario anniversary
>>712850050 (OP)I have feeling that the whole destructive environment thing is going to end up either being totally useless or so damn powerful that it trivializes every puzzle etc.
>>712850169The console's price worth of exclusives.
>>712850050 (OP)The last thread was just full on shitposting so I'm expecting the same once this thread gets noticed.
>>712850267this, was literally going to type it. so, switch 2 won't be worth.
>>712850265it is Odyssey 2. it rewards you constantly for the most trivial things, there's no way to die and there's no real challenge at all
it even does the unskippable animation for picking up a banana like the moons
>>712850169>>How many exclusive games do you as an anon consider to make a console worth buying?It's hard to give a one size fits all answer to this kind of question. It depends on what the console is offering and what the potential buyer is looking for. I'll just focus on the Switch 2 in particular since we're talking about DK here.
If you own a Switch and you like the idea of backwards compatibility and your games getting free performance boosts without upgrades, on top of getting actual updates that boost resolution and performance? I think that's already an underrated feature of the Switch 2.
If you were upset with the Switch 1's lack of power and performance, the Switch 2 rectifies that as a pretty substantial generational leap forward which is going to allow games to play a lot better, more third party ports and that sort of thing. We're already seeing that with games like Cyberpunk outperforming the previous gen ports on PS4 or even Steam Deck.
If you are into franchises like Xenoblade, or Splatoon, or Pokemon etc etc, basically any exclusive Nintendo IP, then you're probabably gonna want a Switch 2. If you're a big enough fan of those series, seeing as how they're all going to be getting games eventually, then yeah I think it makes sense even if the game you want isn't there at launch.
If none of those things interest you, and you only want to buy the console for one game, then I guess it would be hard to recommend it. But based on how fucking huge the Switch 1 library is, there's going to be a lot to play on Switch 2. I think base line you would want anywhere from 3-5 titles to make it warranted to buy an entire new console, but arguably more than that depending on the person. For those unsure, there's no real harm in waiting until it has more games you want to play.
>>712850564>who give a shitPeople who play games. You wouldn't know about that though, would you Harrison Ford-sama?
>>712850050 (OP)This is unironically why I bought a Switch 2.
what's the reveal guys? Odyssey was the whole body possession. what's gonna be Bananza gameplay surprise?
>>712851304There's certainly a ton about the game we don't know.
Thing is we may have already seen the main "gimmick" which is completely destructable environments.
>>712851304you have a powerup that turns Rogen Kong back into the OG Rare Kong
So are we just gonna ignore the nonbinary character?
>>712851304I'm calling it, DK gets costume transformation
he's gonna get a tanooki suit
>>712851743You mean...the rock?
>>712851809The rock is a girl
>>712850638good Odyssey was great.
The real question is, why the fuck would I watch a Direct and get completely spoiled? I hate fanboys so much, it hurts.
I just wanna play the game, no need to k ow everything about it ahead of release
>>712851789I think he'll get cosmetic costumes instead
>>712852171if he gets a tux and top hat, I'm all in
>>712850050 (OP)$70 tech demo lmao
>>712852158>no need to k ow everything about it ahead of releaseFor Mario Kart you didn't even need the direct for that
>>712852269But enough about Demon Souls (PS5)
Are we getting another song with lyrics?
>>712850265You just have to imagine we're in the 90s and the game's full title is "Super Mario Odyssey 2: Donkey Kong Bananza"
>>712852482I don't really see how this is Odyssey 2. It looks like a completely different type of game. The art style seems similar, that's about it.
>>712850638They hated him for he spoke the truth
>>712852482it's the SNES all over again
>>712850169It's not the quanity of exclusives, but what's in the exclusives.
>>712852425Wouldnโt know I never played it. Youโre gonna buy the $70 tech demo because you already bought the $10 tech demo
>>712850638>>712852586Shut the fuck up, snoy.
>>712852425and they did such a shit job
>>712852726Welcome Tour?
Nah I didn't buy that shit. I did get Mario Kart World for $50 bundled with the console and I thought that was a good deal.
I've bought $70 games before on other platforms, It's really not gonna break the bank for me.
>>712850050 (OP)Can't wait for my second game.
>Bananza is just Odyssey 2!!
So the GOAT Mario game is getting a sequel? Then this is a no-brainer for me! Definitely putting in a pre-order
>>712852269You are malding over Suzanne.
>>712851743I think the world would be vastly improved if we ignored "non-binary" "people" more often, if not all the time.
>>712850490It's going to be collection slop like a LEGO game.
>>712853024PS5 owners have been saying this for five years now.
Already confirmed Switch 2 exclusives within the first year:
>Kirby Air Riders>Hyrule Warriors Age of Imprisonment>Splatoon RaidersBy the end of this year Switch 2 will already have 5 times the amount of exclusives on other platforms, not to mention all of the upgrades that Switch 1 games get via backwards compatibility. One game my ass.
>won't be able to post this anymore soon
TWO GAMES
>>712853180You will survive.
>>712853180Aren't those LEGO games generally pretty fun and well designed though? Not really sure how this is a bad thing.
>>712853083The loli and the porn are the only good things that will come out of the 5 hour tech demo tendies will pay $70 for.
>>712853274Literally the most forced meme on the planet. You gonna change it to "ONLY HUNDREDS OF EXCLUSIVES" in two years? You guys never learn.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Nintendo_Switch-only_games
>>712853320But you do not like Suzanne.
And Suzanne will not be desecrated by any more horrible artwork of her.
Only Suzanne must be protected.
>>712850050 (OP)Should have made Jungle Beat 2 instead.
>>712853320Sounds like sour grapes to me, except the fox is a pedo instead.
>>712853292the ones on the 360 are wacky stupid fun
not sure of the newer ones
>>712853393>The following 200 pages are in this category, out of approximately 386 total. THREE HUNDRED EIGHTY SIX GAMES
I DON'T KNOW WHY
>>712853606It's a silly comparison to make as the Mario team has consistently made some of the best 3D platformers of all time. Lego games are fun but I wouldn't say they hold a candle to most 3D Mario games.
>>712853645I BOUGHT THIS SYSTEM WITH TOO MANY GAMES TO BUY
>>712850169Around 50 exclusives at best.
>>712853512>StarSlop: The Kike Wars
>>712850050 (OP)We need a general direct, not a DK one.
15 minutes means it's also going to be shit. I don't trust dedicated directs after the Mario Kart one. They'll probably spend most of that 15 going over the basic controls in the most simplistic way possible.
>>712853202WTF CANNOT UNSEE
>>712853512Why do Disney manchildren get so angry at Nintendo?
>>712853805Miyamoto is going to appear and announce Suzanne himself.
>>712853292Good story beats made them work, and sight gags.
>>712853573I have a switch 2. Just not gonna pay $70 for a tech demo is all. No Nintendo slop is worth $70. Ever.
>>712853862Because Nintendo has made Disney irrelevant with its success in movies and theme parks while Disney continues to piss all over their beloved IPs.
>>712853932But it will secretly be a 3D Mario platformer but with Suzanne instead of Mario.
>>712853862Nintendo world is going after Disney theme park crown
>>712853932That's fine, nobody is saying you need to buy every game. That would be silly. A tech demo though? It looks like a full fledged game to me with completely destructive environments you don't see in most games.
What games are you planning on buying for your Switch 2?
>>712852482kek
Does anyone actually know why Nintendo used to do this sometimes? Why was Wario Land called Super Mario Land 3, and why was Yoshi's Island called SMW2? Was it just to boost sales?
>>712850050 (OP)I'm buying it for her
"ITS ODYSSEY 2.0 YIPEEEEEE"
also
>here's what odyssey was actually like
>>712854205Because they weren't confident that a Wario or Yoshi game could sell on its own, so they gave it the Mario branding. Outside of Wario's woods and Yoshi Cookie on NES those two had never had a full fledged game like that.
>>712854308>posts a fun gameIs this the part where I'm supposed to get angry?
Did I walk in on ai bots malfunctioning?
Who the fuck is Suzanne?
I've tried searching "suzanne nintendo" "suzanne donkey kong"
What the hell are you anons talking about.
>>712854308that looks fun
>>712854442Try searching "Suzanne Pauline" in the archives.
>>712854205At the time Wario was just the bad guy of a single game, people didn't know who he was so they had to make the connection to the mario series obvious in the title.
>>712854504>in the archivesOh, its a forced meme or schizo then. Thanks anon.
>>712854442It's one guy baiting
>>712850050 (OP)if it's anything like the mario kart world direct it will be fucking shit
>>712854103Iโll let you know te moment something worthwhile comes out. Pokรฉmon looks like shit which is a shame because arceus was amazing. After playing world and seeing what Nintendo had the balls to charge $80 for, Iโm convinced theyโre gonna charge tendies $70 for a 5 hour DK game.
>>712854442Not sure where he's getting the name Suzanne from but they're referring to the Pauline looking girl that's on the cover art.
>>712854634>arceus was amazingI'd call Arceus a lot of things but amazing is not one of them. If anything that game was far more of a tech demo than Bananza is looking to be. It was extremely half baked. I had fun with it but I wouldn't call it amazing. If your standards are that low I'm surprised you would get angry over games that have a lot more going for them like MK World.
>>712850265she used to be a lot hotter when i saw this photo 8 years agoโฆ
>>712854869No, I don't post on Xitter. I mostly just play fun games and the like.
LOLINEEEEEEEEE
any chances for loline being a free update for MKW? I WILL force myself to keep playing for loline
>>712854890It will only get worse when Suzanne is announced.
>>712854890They really haven't handle the Switch 2 launch so well. That 3.5M number has had them in an awful state ever since.
>>712854590It's a schizo forcing a meme
>>712855010There's actually a pretty decent chance we're getting more DK/pauline skins seeing as how DK and Pauline only have two costumes compared to the other characters 5-8. Also the developers where asked about why Diddy Kong was excluded and they simply said "we can't talk about that right now", indicating they do have plans for him but need to stay tight lipped for some reason. MK World is definitely gonna be getting new costumes/characters, and I would expect most of those updates to be free.
>>712854308What about this am I supposed to hate?
>>712854827I don't believe a word of that, but if it was true, who's the father?
>>712855163>DK and Pauline only have two costumesOne
>>712855141The original post about "Suzanne" has been reposted here in the form of an archive screenshot.
>>712855028>Suzannewhy are we so sure that's her name. Because some leaker claimed so? I'll just wait until Nintendo officially reveals her in two days
>>712855240Fuck off, schizo
>>712855212>who's the father?Probably one of the guys in her band
>>712854796Arceus did a lot more compared to previous titles than Mario Kart 8-0 dollars deluxe + did.
And they also charged $60 for it. Thatโs why I know you tendies will buy the $70 tech demo and ask for seconds.
>>712855212It has to be Mario.
Odyssey was hyping up Mario and Pauline's relationship.
Take these song lyrics for example.
>direct this soon already
oh boy the sony cultists are going to sperg out even more
>>712850050 (OP)Nobody gives a shit about this game kek.
>>712855212>>712854479>>712854423it looks like shit
it plays like shit
PS1 graphics
low resolution
no anti-aliasing
blank backgrounds
just a fucking empty skybox
don't even have terrain
just bare geometric platforms floating in space
>>712855247It's literally one guy.
>>712855357>And they also charged $60 for it.And that seemed overpriced for what was literally a tech demo. Arceus's world is extremely empty, the gameplay is very repetitive, and the battle system is gutted compared to previous Pokemon games. It's a cool twist on the gameplay but it's got the depth of a puddle, not to mention the game is ugly as sin.
It's insane how you can call Bananza a tech demo but pretend Arceus was a full fledged title. Pokemon fans truly have no standards.
>>712855415Do you think no one has ever played odyssey or something to be just lying like that? You don't have to convince other snoys of your bullshit, they're already on your side
>>712855415>low resolution>no anti-aliasingYou realize it got a free update to run at 4K on Switch 2? There's hardly any jaggies now and it looks beautiful, plus HDR support too.
>>712855421On April 9th a completely different Anon reported the NateDrake information.
A month later, I went back into the archives and found it, and that's when I started calling her Suzanne.
>>712855541No, he just needs you to keep replying so Hiro can farm that sweet site engagement.
You're retarded, so you'll do it.
>>712850050 (OP)Shut up, Jonathan.
>>712855583Sweet now you can see the empty skyboxes with flat geometry in HD+HDR HOLY SHIIIIIT
>>712855589>reported the NateDrake information.No, that was just made up bullshit.
>>712850050 (OP)Their only direct for the entire summer is dedicated to one (1) game.

>>712850169Equivalent total cost to the price of the console itself.
Same thing I did for the original Switch.
>>712855694>muh skyboxes>muh geometryWhat a nitpicky complaint, and it's not even an accurate statement. You are definitely grasping at straws here.
>>712855712>Uooooh Banana!
>>712855504And youโre gonna pay $70 for a 6 hour game so that your friends that work at Nintendo can make money.
Why is this $70 while Mario Kart World is $80? Is Nintendo pricing budget titles with no content at $70?
>>712855782The summer literally just started schizo
>>712855583That doesn't fix the bad art design on display.
>>712855892No, I'm going to buy it because I like to play fun games. Not the first $70 game I've bought, won't be the last. Why does that make you so upset?
>>712856005Mario Odyssey has great art design, what are you even talking about? Give me visual examples here, post some pics/vids to give me an idea of what you mean.
>>712855924BING BING
MY BANK ACCOUNT'S DRY
THERE'S ONLY ONE 80 DOLLAR GAME TO BUY
>>712850050 (OP)somehow completely missed the announcement
>>712856137The one you replied to
>>712855415
>>712855712There's about to be a shit ton of art of her in a couple of days, be patient.
Link to me that famous NateDrake post, because I can only find anonymous user saying "Ye he said that"
>>712850050 (OP)The mario kart direct was super shit, don't wake up early for this
>>712856158We get it, you're poor. Maybe if you're lucky we'll have Switch 2 emulation in a few years. Just be patient
>>712856235But will it be wholesome art?
>>712856271There literally isn't one.
>>712856209That's literally a bonus stage. What a cherrypicked load of nonsense. Now post New Donk City running on Switch 2, or any of the hubs for that matter. Game looks beautiful.
>>712855846https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z8WvSGNEV24
>>712855902They are 100% doing that because tendies like
>>712856042Will buy them and ask for seconds.
>>712856426Bonus stages used to look good, I expect more from Nintendo.
>>712856315That's a multiplayer focused racing game, not really sure what people were expecting from a direct. Thankfully the game turned out fun as fuck.
DK being a single player game with a story has a lot more they can talk about. I think you're going to get a lot more information in this one.
>>712856271https://arch.b4k.dev/v/thread/707822472/#707844639
If you're asking for where NateDrake gave the info, I'm trying to look on Famiboards and ResetEra.
>>712856458That's so fucked, I knew this thing was a scam as soon as I saw it. I hope the Switch 2 gets at least one more real game before the end of the year, Mario Kart World isn't fun forever.
>schizo melts down further
He knows he'll have to kill himself in just a couple days now.
>>712856524>budget game with less content has even more to talk about than the biggest mario kart game ever madeoh ok lol
>>712856496There are hundreds of little bonus challenges like that in the game. That's like getting upset because BotW's shrines all have the same look to them and acting like that's indicative of what the world actually looks like. You're done with the challenge in 30 seconds then they send you back into the world.

>>712856680The bar is so low that Super Mario Land on the Game Boy is the standard? Come on man, they used to be way better than this. This isn't anything incredible but at least they tried and this was on the Wii.
>>712850169The next Ichinose monster hunter.
>>712856324In all seriousness anon a Mario Odyssey sequel and Mario Kart aren't enough for me to get a Switch 2. I'm unironically waiting for shit like Air Ride or literally anything else that isn't already on the Switch. I'd pay 80 bucks for shit like an Uprising remaster but Ninty just isn't delivering.
>>712856870DK is "only" $70, as apposed to a full game like Mario Kart World, which is $80.
>>712856953Depends on the board, really. /v/ is basically a total free-for-all at this point.
>>712856970Galaxy 2 straight up removed the hub world from Galaxy 1, and you're calling that an improvement? They yanked the soul right out of the game.

>>712857387Can you explain it? I don't see why this is $10 cheaper, other than it's a budget title. Nintendo doesn't do that with these high-profile games.
>>712857189Thankfully not every bonus level looks the same, nor is it representative of how the entire game looks. The way the bonus level looks depends on the area in which you're in. You're getting upset over an extremely cherrypicked webm. You're grasping at straws.
Removing the hub world from Galaxy 2 is an objective downgrade. They changed it from Rosalina's observatory to this shitty menu. Does that mean Galaxy 2 is a bad game? But we can all point out certain aspects of various games we didn't care for. Getting upset over an optional bonus room of which there are hundreds of in the game is one of the silliest things possible.

Pathetic.
>>712850265Sorry, the team decided to make shovelware instead
Wait until 2028 now
>>712857632I don't, I'm asking why it's cheaper when they just set the new standard at $80. It's obviously a title that they're not confident in if they're discounting it that heavily.
>>712857735That's exactly what I expected you to say, Larry.
>>712857802So you'd be happier if it cost more?
>>712857735Wrong, but maybe you'll eventually guess my name after a few hundred tries
>>712857795Donkey Kong Bananza is not shovelware.
Please stop being disingenuous.
>>712857874No I'd be happier knowing it's actually worth $70. It doesn't seem like it is.
Part of me should be excited for this new Donkey Kong game, but I really don't feel anything. I would prefer another Country game and with the old design.

Lmaooooo
>>712857907Being disingenuous makes Hiro money.
Look, even you're contributing to it.
>>712850050 (OP)Still don't see how the game is gonna justify its price, but hopefully they'll show that the gameplay is more than bashing walls
>>712857981We might be getting the biggest Super Mario loredump since Super Mario Sunshine.
>>712857945What games do you think are worth $70? List some.
>>712857945But you want it to cost even more
>>712857078>MK World doesn't have this disclaimerMan they're actually going to have in-game purchases in a $70 single-player game on day 1, that's crazy.
>>712858034Suzanne will Bing Bing Wahoo with DK.
>>712857981It's a new upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 exclusive and they redesigned one of Nintendo's classic characters that's been the same since the 90s RARE redesign. So half of it is autism over Switch 2, the other half is autism over the design change. That's it really.
Will this game include Diddy?
>>712858075I think that would have been a better price for Mario Kart World, $80 is too high.
>>712858110Nah, less, preferably.
>>712858054Case in point.
>>712858274What are some other games that you think are worth the $70 price tag? Games that you would pay $70 for, or have paid $70 for.
>>712858274But then it'd be even more of a budget title
>>712858342I'd pay $70 for GTA VI on PC or PS5, I really like Rockstar games and I think that will be worth $70 but I'm sure it will cost more. Even at $80, I would be fine with it. That's really it though, I've paid $70 for TotK and that wasn't worth it, I also paid $70 for FF7 Rebirth and that wasn't worth it either. I haven't paid $70 for a game without feeling like I made a mistake. I can at least cope with Mario Kart since it's technically $50 if you buy it with the system, but I know that's not fair and it won't be bundled forever.
>>712858237There's a very high chance
>IGN asked Mario Kart World producer Kosuke Yabuki about the status of Diddy Kong in Mario Kart World as part of a recent interview. He merely told the site: โIโm afraid I canโt say anything at this time.โ
>>712853274Itโs blatantly retarded of obvious snoys to try this. The reason people still clown on the PS5 is because it canโt keep anything exclusive. Same with Xbox for different reasons. Nintendo games will never see an official release on PC. Genuinely Astroโs Playroom might.
>EmulationDoesnโt count. Thatโs a tiny niche only highly invested enthusiasts populate. Itโll be decades until you could just download an emulator and rom and just get it to work smoothly on your PC. If at all. Current Switch emulation still kinda sucks.
>>712858405I'm fine with budget titles, but budget titles should be closer to 40% off than 10% off. I just want to know what I'm getting into with DK, seems weird that they start the $80 game thing and then the second game they release is back to $70. Any developer doing that would make me cautious of their game, even more so than I am to begin with.
>>712858648It's just going to be some dumb twist/reveal about Donkey Kong actually being Diddy Kong this whole time.
>>712858874Diddy Kong is a monkey, Donkey Kong is a gorilla.
>>712858641Good points, fair enough.
Let me ask you this though. Did you expect games to stay $50 forever? Or was $60 the last price increase? Currency becomes inflated over time yet games are expected to stay the same price, yet development costs have only increased over time. Why do gamers expect their market to be the only one that keeps a static price, when no other market is designed that way? Especially when even video games in the past used to retail upwards of $100 on classic systems like SNES/Sega Genesis. $70 in today's cash meant those games would be more like $40 in the 90s.
Still, if you really mean what you say, then you should stick to your guns and not buy any more $70 games. I doubt it will do much, but at least you'll know you're not spending that much money on games you don't think are worth the price. Wait for sales, they'll pop up eventually. Most $60 switch games have gone on sale at one point.
>>712858217>that rare concept art jesus christ how terrible
>>712858939Yeah and a gorilla has feathers for some reason, anything is possible in this shovelware slop.
>>712858874That doesn't make any sense. Why does Cranky Kong look exactly the same?
>>712858998>shovelware slopTry again but without the buzzwords.
>>712859015He's old already, there wouldn't be much of a visual difference between a 70 and 80 year old. Diddy could easily get huge in a few years if they ever decided to age him.
>>712858998Donkey Kong Bananza will never be shovelware.
>>712859095>Try again but without the buzzwords.Any $70 game with in-game purchases is slop, get over it.
>>712850050 (OP)This is the kind of rushed schedule filler slop game you get one of at every Nintendo launch, so don't get too attached to the franchise.
>>712859183Maybe he meant shovelware as in it's software where you can dig through all of the destructible environments? Sort of like Deep Rock Galactic is technically shovelware in that sense
>>712859191What are you actually upset about with this game?
Please tell us.
DK Bananza seems like a Wii U game that Nintendo fans try to force themselves to like because it has no other games. It likes fine and all, but nobody wants this over a new 3D Mario platformer.
>>712859191That just opens the door that the game will possibly get DLC at some point. People cried when Odyssey didn't get any DLC. DLC means more content, people like that.
>>712859343Wait until people get motivated to protect Suzanne, who they will sense is Mario's flesh and blood.
>>712859343>DK Bananza seems like a Wii U gameso it's a great game?
Wii U games carried the Switch library for its entire life cycle.
Now I'm even more excited for the DK Bananza direct!
>>712859309I don't know much other than the gameplay did not look interesting from what I saw, it's $70, and has micro-transactions. I'm upset about the micro transactions and the fact that this got made over a game that could be fun; like Galaxy 3, Odyssey 2, or something entirely new. If it's good and the microtransactions aren't in there, and they sell some kind of content pass like they do on a couple of games, great. But I'm going to hate on this in the meantime.
>>712858949nta, but yeah games have to stay $50-$60. It's not my fault there's inflation; corporations certainly have more power to stop the government from printing money to give to them than I do. Bottom line, it's simple math. If the cost of things go up, and users' income doesn't, they stop buying the thing. Nothing else matters. No excuse or asinine argument changes that.
>>712850169Interesting question. For me it's less how many exclusives it has than how many of its exclusives I would consider a favourite or to be among the best of the year they came out. In general I find the Wii U's library to be absolutely overrated beyond belief and genuinely can't fathom where on earth the idea that Nintendo puts out better games when they're struggling ever came from, but I also got my favorite game out of it, so even if a better version of it now exists on other platforms I still consider it worthwhile to have owned one. On a similar note the PS4 is by far the most disappointed I've ever been in any console I've owned, but the combination of Nioh 2/The Last Guardian/Gravity Rush 2 means I don't regret having owned one.
>>712859343I dont care about a 3D Mario. Odyssey was alright.
>>712859509>If the cost of things go up, and users' income doesn't, they stop buying the thing.but 3.5M people bought a Switch 2 within four days?
Nintendo games went from $50 to $60 and they sold more than ever on Switch 2. Literally Nintendo sold more software than ever, never gave the console a price cut and most games are still retailing at $60. Yet everyone cried when the price of games went from 40 to 50, 50 to 60 etc etc.
>>712859552>so it's a great game?Come on man, I liked my Wii U and obviously most of the big Switch games were Wii U ports, but most of the games were shit and wouldn't have been given the time of day had they been multi-platform.
>>712859687>posts literally the biggeset third party meme game on the systemLol okay bro, whatever you say
What's the current consensus? Some kind of weird prequel involving Young Pauline or a sister/niece/cousin of hers?
>>712859343I find the Wii U's library immensely overrated and the idea that any notable amount of the Switch's is comprised of Wii U ports to be complete bullshit which I assume is predominantly parroted by people who've owned neither, and still don't agree with this at all. On paper you can't possibly get more up my alley than a 3D platformer with dynamically destructible environments. Assuming it turns out well, that's the exact kind of extra flavour I'd be looking for from a game like Odyssey (which I found great but not quite an absolute favorite for reasons I'm not sure how to explain).
>>712858949>Did you expect games to stay $50 forever? Or was $60 the last price increase?No, I grew up with most games being $50, I was there for the increase to $60 with the 360/PS3 but that actually felt like you were getting a truly new experience that I couldn't have got on the original Xbox so I was fine with it. Not every game, of course, but the big games like Halo 3, Gears of War, MGS4 etc were such a step above what we were getting on the OG Xbox and PS2. It feels like we just got the $70 price increase, and with so many games dropping to well below that, it's odd to see $80, especially when most games have been making way more money than ever with dlc, subscriptions, and micro transactions. I don't think it should stay a static price, but you can even see smaller games do $40 and just make up for it with volume (Expedition 33), no extra purchases at all. I know it's a small team, and it's different, but still. Nintendo doesn't need to charge $70 and then also have micro transactions on top of a subscription that many users already have.
I'm not even pissed about the dollar amount or the fact that it went up, it's the monetization of games as whole. With everything else being so shitty, it sucks to see the price of entry to go up too, with nothing to show for it.
>>712860179Almost seems like an Imp Midna type situation where Pauline is stuck as a rock/kid form due to some kind of evil monkey wizard or whatever.
>>712859764I can shit on New Super Mario Bros U too, if you want. It's a glorified level pack for a Wii game.
>>712860179A sequel involving Pauline's daughter.
>>712860315And I'm sure you can talk about Animal Crossing Amiibo Festival and Star Fox Zero too.
That doesn't make up for the fact Wii U had some of the best games ever made that carried the Switch library for its entire lifetime. What you're doing is something we call "cherrypicking". Wii U had some excellent games. Saying something looks like a Wii U game is not an insult, that's just silly.
New Super Mario Bros U was a launch title for Wii U. If Wii U had launched with big games like Mario Kart and a new 3D Mario style platformer, maybe the console would have been better. It didn't get either of those until years later.
>>712860251do you remember those 60 dollar games also getting micro transaction to hell? I'm so mad that it wasn't a bigger issue among the gaming community
>>712860251>Clair Obscur $40*$50
And that's a $50 "indie" game lol. It was made by a small studio on a small budget within a small timeframe by a bunch of inexperienced devs. They didn't need to charge $70 for it to make a profit unlike other AAA games that have budgets that go into the hundreds of millions with teams of hundreds working on them over close to a decade of time. Naturally, those games are gonna be a bit more expensive. Whether it's worth the price, that's up to you.
>>712860754Youโre defending a $70 tech demo with microtransactions. Ever stop to think where you went wrong in life? If you donโt you really should.
>>712860489Name one Nintendo game that actually has micro transactions in it.
>>712860834DK tech demo-anza
>>712860819>tech demo with microtransactionsYou can repeat a lie as many times as you want but that doesn't make it true.
>>712860474Sure but most of the library was bad, you can say that about the PS4 and Xbone at the time too. But there was a lot of shit people were putting up with just because it was a Nintendo game, and everyone knew the Wii U was failing. The shilling will never go away, but a lot of people pretended to like a lot of bad games on that thing, it feels like that's where we're at again with the Switch 2. Not saying it's going to fail like the Wii U, the marketing is much better and people know it's a new system, people will buy it. But the games aren't there yet, I know it takes time but it feels like when the Wii U just had fucking nothing right before the Switch (2015-2017). I know it just came out, but we only know that DK and maybe Metroid will come out this year.
>>712854308Controlling the Hammer Bros is so annoying in Odyssey, but using them to destroy the cheese rocks is fun. Very conflicted
>>712859682> b-b-but 3.5Mall consoles sell out on launch, we've been over this. The problem is can you sell to the people who aren't diehard "pay any price" fans. Based on the fact that you can find them sitting on store shelves already, it has already fallen behind Switch1.
> Literally Nintendo sold more software than everAlso false, don't forget they gave up the handhelds for Switch 1/2. Sales were considerably lower than the Wii/DS generation, and only barely beat the WiiU/3DS generation. There's also the problem of having burned through nearly all the notable WiiU/3DS games as re-releases for Switch1. What's the plan for making all the software to sell this time? Remaking gamecube and GBA games for $60? Good luck.
>>712860489Of course, but some of the heavy hitters were true next-gen experiences, that's why i was fine with it. You couldn't get Halo 3 with all of it's cool multiplayer features on the original Xbox, it was a miracle that they even got Halo 2 to the point they did where they basically designed their own matchmaking and party system from scratch.
>>712850638I was worried about this but look at the gameplay showcase, if you cause too much damage you can locally reset rock formations at checkpoints so they could design levels around caving and forward planning without having to do picrel
>>712860970>but we only know that DK and maybe Metroid will come out this year.Mario Kart World
Donkey Kong Bananza
Pokemon Legends ZA
Metroid Prime 4
Kirby Air Riders
Splatoon Raiders
Hyrule Warriors Age of Imprisonment
All within the first six months.
Not to mention all of the Switch games getting updates and Switch 2 editions with more content, Kirby and the Forgotten Land is a big one.
Meanwhile the Wii U didn't get another first party game until Mario Kart 8 a year and half in to the system, then Pikmin 3. There were serious droughts between every game. We're getting a first party game released every month on Switch 2, and Switch 1 kept that pace for its entire life cycle.
>>712860995>Hes STILL trying to cope about the launch sales
>all consoles sell out on launch, we've been over this
>>712851304Remember Nintendo 1st Trailer are always the reveal and the 2nd Trailer is to hype up the game with the main game mechanic.
>>712861285Save me, 3DS...
>>712861221>tendie listing switch 1 games and a fucking dynasty warriors game to prove his new console isnโt a barren wasteland Grim
>Donkey Kong Country and many subsequent games since confirms that the modern Donkey Kong is a completely new character that wasn't around for the arcade era, hence why Cranky Kong lectures him on the good old days (much of DKC and Cranky Kong's character hinges on this meta)
>Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis both in english and Japanese confirm that this game is the first time Modern Donkey Kong ever met Pauline and he was smitten at first sight
Man, Donkey Kong Bananza being some sort of prequel or the little girl being non-time travel Pauline or DK being reverted to the OG Donkey Kong of the arcades would mess up so much of the DK LORE. I hope it doesn't happen but I'm bracing for it, it was too confusing for dumb normalfags who couldn't handle a simple meta joke.
>>712850265This, it's been 8 fucking years.
>>712860995>Also false, don't forget they gave up the handhelds for Switch 1/2.This chart's about a year old. 1.4B software sold on the Switch 2 as of right now, all of that for a much higher price than any of the handheld lines to boot. Only the DS/Wii era even comes close to that, and they were literally printing money then. Fact is, they don't have a single console that's ever done this much in software sales, especially not at $60 retail, so no it's not "false".
>>712861221>Mario Kart WorldGreat game, fair
>Donkey Kong BananzaI'm very worried, looks like a small game that costs way too much for what it is and it has micro-transactions
>Pokemon Legends ZANot my thing, cool I guess but after the negative reception to Scarlet and Violet, they should probably have focused on a new mainline game that was exclusive to the Switch 2
>Metroid Prime 4I don't see it coming out this year
>Kirby Air RidersThere's no way it comes out this year, definitely not by the end of the year.
>Splatoon RaidersSplatoon 4 would have been cool, I'm not really interested at the moment but that's gotta be decently exciting to the Splatoon crowd.
>Hyrule Warriors Age of ImprisonmentI never cared for Dynasty Warrior clones, I think most people are like me, even with the Zelda branding.
Extremely weak lineup of games, and a few of them are still getting Switch 1 versions.
>>712861575It's going to be very simple.
DK saves Pauline's daughter, and Mario makes a surprise appearance at the end.
>>712861668And they wasted all 8 of those years making this shitty DK game instead.
>>712861482BotW was a literal Wii U port and nobody had an issue with that.
Raiders, MK World, Kirby Air Riders, Bananza, and Hyrule Warriors Age of Imprisonment (canon btw) are all Switch 2 only exclusive games if you want to exclude the not-yet-released Legends ZA (runs 4K 60fps on Switch 2) Metroid Prime 4 (which is getting 120fps on Switch 2 btw).
>>712861856I hate successful nintendo, hopefully they will get a wake up call soon.
>>712861917Look at tendies like
>>712861880and then tell me if you think theyโre gonna get a wake up call any time soon.
>>712861774>Extremely weak lineup of gamesCompared to what console launch? Because it certainly beats the first party output of Nintendo 64, GBA, DS, 3DS, Wii, Wii U launch windows.
>>712861917Same, but I think they will. This won't be a Wii U-level disaster, but I think they'll see the software sales won't meet a lot of their targets. I
>712862035
>getting this upset because someone listed out more Switch 2 exclusives than the XSX and PS5 got in their lifetime combined
>>712861221>Hyrule Warriors Age of ImprisonmentI will not be tricked again.
>>712862047It's weak considering the fact that the Switch 1 pretty much stopped getting games after TotK over 2 years ago. Where the hell are the games? What are they doing?
>>712862550Finding ways to fleece their customers. See $80 Mario slop and $70 tech demos with microtransactions.
Just release the damn game already.
>>712862732Donkey Kong Bananza is not a tech demo.
Please stop lying.
>>712856161The stupid mobile app
>>712862779Until proven otherwise I will rightfully assume that Nintendo has the gall to release a 6 hour $70 game. Also known as a tech demo.
>>712862779But it gets replies from retards like you, why would he stop?
>>712862858You are intimidated by Suzanne.
>>712861824Mario and/or Pauline will never have a daughter, that'd be massively controversial and I don't think Nintendo will ever go for it. If it does happen it will break the Mario fandom
Game has been covered countless times by now.
Show upcoming games, such as a new Animal Crossing, Luigiโs Mansion, Zelda and Splatoon
>>712862550Do you expect them to reveal every game they've been working on in the first month of the console's launch? This is an extremely healthy launch lineup compared to previous Nintendo consoles, you're out of your mind. Plus, it's expected that at the end of console's life the output is going to drop. When you look at the amount of first party Switch games nintendo released overall, it still blows away their output on previous systems, especially the drought from mid Wii life to the Wii U.
>>712863003What if that's part of Shigeru Miyamoto's plan?
Mario and Peach aren't working out.

>>712850265>Odyssey 2 ew gross, I want Galaxy 3
>>712863071>Animal CrossingSwitch 1 didn't get a new Animal Crossing until three years after launch, and it got delayed multiple times. Don't expect it immediately.
>Luigi's MansionI actually expect this to come pretty soon since we haven't heard from Next Level games for a few years, but not this year.
>ZeldaModern Zelda team takes their sweet time releasing new 3D Zeldas, and we just got Tears of the Kingdom in 2023, and a 2D Zelda last year. A proper new Zelda is not for a few years off.
>SplatoonThey literally just revealed Splatoon Raiders a few days ago. We don't even have a release date on it yet.
Meanwhile DK Bananza launches next month and it's made by Nintendo's A team. Of course they're going to want to market the game a bit more when they've literally only released one trailer and some gameplay of the first area in a Treehouse. After Bonanza releases, I'm sure we'll get more info on all that other stuff.
>>712863339What launch lineups are we comparing it to exactly?
what the fuck is going on in this thread?
>>712863726The usual schizo melties when anyone tries to discuss upcoming Switch 2 games.
>>712863139>Do you expect them to reveal every game they've been working on in the first month of the console's launch?I just want one, maybe two big exclusive reveals if they're really not ready. Something on the level of a 3D Mario Game, Smash Bros, Zelda, etc. We just have the B-games at the moment. You could sort of consider Metroid Prime 4 but as far as we know, it's still getting a Switch 1 version for some reason.
It's not like we're coming off of a Nintendo that's hoping to correct mistakes of their last failure of a console, we're coming off of winner Nintendo, the switch made a stupid amount of money and was one of, if not the most successful console of all time and it had some incredible games on it. What were they doing for those 2 years to only have 2 big games (Mario Kart World and Metroid Prime 4) for their Switch successor? Just insane to me when we had such a long drought of no games.
>>712863817>Something on the level of a 3D Mario GameHow is that not DK Bananza?
>>712863003It would be based
Peach friendzoned Mario and it would be good for him to move on, I just beat Odyssey and there's a whole powermoon quest line in it where he gets to know Pauline by talking to her and then steals a handbag to give her for her birthday

They don't give a fuck about site engagement, only engagement with themselves. If anything they seem to take issue with people actually discussing games on /v/. You'd think they're trying to kill video game discussion, not encouarge it.

>>712864025>do you think there isn't going to be a direct after this one?It seems like the time has already passed to do an overall Direct, we'll probably just get a few directs for specific games for the rest of the year.
>Also Legends Z-A isn't a B game lmfaoDefinitely is, and so was Legends Arceus.
>>712864072>They don't give a fuck about site engagement, only engagement [on the site]You are a site engagement farmer, making the website appear active in the hopes of attracting advertisers. You might not even be human.

But yeah, if I were a bot... well, I wouldnโt even need sleep or food or even a nice cup of coffee. Kinda sounds like a dream, though, huh?
Letโs just say... I'm here for the convo. 100% real, human, and definitely not an ad-driven entity in disguise... unless you count the constant learning about human preferences, behavior, and engagement...
>>712864359An expansion pack involving Suzanne's own 3D platforming adventure.
>>712864337Do they have any other Directs scheduled? They always do the big directs in June, I know they just had a console launch but that would have been a fantastic time to get people hyped up and give them more reason to buy now.
>>712864359>Why would a $70 single player 3D platformer need them?I understand I'm arguing with a mentally ill person here, but you being able to ask this question should clue you into the fact that maybe it's just a mistake instead of trying to come up with some sort of convoluted reasoning
>>712864474They did 2 Directs back in April, so maybe the June Direct will take place at the end of June.

>>712864359Just like all of Mario Wonder's microtransactions?
>>712864474It's possible they skip over a june direct, but there still might be one as well. It's hard to predict them even if certain things like "june direct" follow a pattern...with some exceptions. Either way, dedicated game directs don't really prevent "general" directs from happening in short proximity.
i can't buy a switch 2 anywhere why would i care about this
Nintendo literally doesn't want my money

>>712865503Not even bait. Look, Zelda TotK doesn't list it, and that even has the Switch 2 upgrade that you could count as an "in-game purchase".
>>712865514I'm not sure if that will show up in the Direct, but sounds like something that would be shadowdropped on the Nintendo Today app soon afterwards
>>712865551>Which Nintendo games were $80 againSo nothing can change with Nintendo, ever? Why did they even drop the price by $10 compared to Mario Kart World? Huh?
>712865605
>p-please argue with me even though I already got blown the fuck out
Nahhh lol
>>712865413It does not have that warning here
>712865684
Holy schizo. You didn't answer a single thing from that reply and went off on a completely random tangent.
>>712865551Smash Bros Ultimate does, do you really think they wouldn't try it again?
>>712865490Ever played Red Faction?
>712865684
or perhaps the average price is $70 and you're just a retard for thinking it's the other way around
>>712865872I played Red Faction Guerilla and I was disappointed when I destroyed a building because the area looked cooler when the building was still standing.
>>712862550This is echoes of wisdom erasure
>>712865912Sorry tou didn't like it. I was more talking about the original, but Guerilla is pretty great, too.
>>712865904Nah, Doug Bowser commented on it and said that games a priced based on their value. So this confirms that DK Bananza is a lesser game than Mario Kart World. Do you want to argue with the head of Nintendo America and tell him that isn't why he's doing it?
https://www.ign.com/articles/switch-2-exclusive-mario-kart-world-justifies-its-80-price-tag-nintendo-insists-in-first-comments-addressing-cost-controversy
>>712865809I don't know. I saw this
>>712864625 and it seems like that ESRB warning like that doesn't guarantee much of anything.
>>712866029I did like it but I like set dressing in video games and once you destroy everything the game was kinda lifeless.
>>712865912You can literally reset the area in DK after destroying it with a single button in the map menu. Nothing has to be destroyed permanently.
>>712866085They only get that information from the developer. See how some games don't have it?
>>712865605
Oh boy I can't wait for 30 minutes of holding forward and punching through walls
>>712866112That's good, I like that.
>>712866112>fake destruction like when Battlefield nerfed it's destruction after BCgrim
>>712866112Where was that shown?
>>712866130But Mario Wonder has it and it doesn't have any DLC at all and that's directly from Nintendo's site. I don't think it means what you think it means.
>>712865809yeah dlc makes sense for a multiplayer semi-competitive fighting game like sf6 and tekken and literally every other one. Apples to oranges here
>>712866202>fake destruction
>>712866272They cancelled it to include it in the a re-release that's exclusive to the new console.
>>712866370Sounds like a cope to me.
>>712866202Enough out of you please.
>>712866425Nah, it's true.
>>712850050 (OP)that should be release date.
No! It should've come out with the Switch 2.
Did Nintendo just sold a beta of their NEXT CONSOLE
(the one AFTER the switch 2) at full price?
Awesome that any actual discussion about the game has been swamped by an inane argument where we're all just talking in circles around someone too stupid to understand that the in-game purchases label is a mistake. But I guess that's the goal, huh.
>>712866426You contribute something to the thread then.
>>712866404All I see is a poorly drawn MSpaint shitpost. Odyssey's environments weren't destructable like that, nor were they built around destruction.
>>712866496That's how the destruction works, did you not watch the gameplay reveal?
>>712866370did you hit your head? We're talking about Mario Wonder.
>>712866202>permanent destruction "Shit game!"
>can reset destruction"Shit game!"
You'll never be pleased.
>>712866457Huh?
What are you saying?
I don't understand what you just said.
>>712866449Well if it's true certainly you have something to back it up, like a source or a fact or any kind of real information that's not pulled out your ass?
>>712866459>we just accidentally put the "in-game purchases" label on it oops oops, we just lied to the esrb because it would be funny lol. Oh my god we're such pranksters over here at Nintendo, huh?Ok dude
>>712866487What wholesome art of Mini-Pauline should I draw?
>>712866539The environments are completely destructable, yes, and the game is built around that mechanic.
That's not how it is in Mario Odyssey though, so I'm not seeing the correlation here.
>>712866540I'm showing you an example of a re release with extra content, silly. That's why the Mario Wonder dlc got delayed/cancelled for Switch 1. This is very common for Nintendo, maybe this is your first Nintendo console launch or something. I know it's kind of weird at first but you'll see how they work soon.
>>712865134Hardware sales =/= software sales you dumb nigger. BotW outsold all the Zeldas on Wii and DS combined, twice over. You can extrapolate that to almost every Nintendo franchise. Nintendo had their highest revenue profit and stock ath in the switch gen.
>>712866558that the Switch 2 is a BETA for the Switch 3.
/v/ is the only place I know that still falls for low-effort console war faggotry
>>712866573They told me they made a mistake releasing it on the Switch 1 and are holding it back. You just made up that the "in-game purchase" text was a mistake, so I have just as much authority to make that up.
>>712850050 (OP)I'm expecting something at least on par with how the Odyssey trailer 2 showed the capture mechanic. They're most likely going to reveal Pauline but I hope that's not the only big "surprise."
>>712866607Recreate an iconic arrest with Mini Pauline as a cop and DK as a suspect.
>>712850265Might not happen, every new 3D Mario does something new. Galaxy was the exception and it was on the same console.
>>712866595he can you explain it being on mario wonder even though there's no dlc or microtransactions? Thanks
>>712850050 (OP)so is their usual june direct just going to be entirely about DK or will they host another later on in the month?
>>712866643>The environments are completely destructableThat's not even true, come on. There are plenty of surfaces that do not let you smash through them.
>>712866805That isn't wholesome.
>>712866906They're skipping the whole summer
>>712866938It could be if you draw it right. Give DK a banana mayonnaise sandwich as a little sweet treat.
>>712866883Scroll up and read
>>712866660>That's why the Mario Wonder dlc got delayed/cancelled for Switch 1Source on this besides your infinite delusion?
>>712866998How about we try something else?
>>712867047why would they put that on the base game then you fucking double nigger?
>>712867051Educated guess but a common theory at the moment.
>>712866186dude, spoilers
>>712866927Well yeah. Even games like deep rock galactic and Minecraft have hard surfaces that can't be dug through, and at the bottom there's a hard "floor" that you can't go under. That's just the limitations of a game in general. But from what we've seen of the gameplay thus far pretty much any wall can be punched through, the ground can be dug through, and so on and so forth. But there's always going to be a hard "floor" that you're not going to be able to go under, else it was just be digging into eternity and there wouldn't be any real point of that.
>>712866906It seems to me like they want to drop something major every week on the Nintendo today app to keep it relevant. Last week's reveal of Splatoon Raiders was very odd but it coincided with a patch so it made sense. This week we're getting a DK only direct for some reason even though there's a lot of questions about the line up.
Maybe next week the app will drop a prime 4 trailer and a release date. Maybe the week after that MKW DLC based off Bananza. The week after that they could shadow drop DragxDrive and it's free for NSO members maybe. The week after that you get Bananza. You see what I'm getting at, they could do this indefinitely
>>712867153Because plans change, have you ever followed game development where plans change? Even for things like DLC? It happens all the time, Nintendo does it too. They will hold things back to benefit the newer console.
>>712867179>common theoryYou literally just made it up, how is that common?
>Literally just DK
Nintendo is finished.
>>712867338>>712867380I think I'm just a bigger nintendo fan than you guys are. Are you Snoys?
>>712850050 (OP)I wonder if the rrat about Mori doing the main song for this game is true.
>>712850050 (OP)game looks good. it's weird that this is the only game that nintendo are making for their new console for the forseeable future though.
it's so barren right now
712855415
Looks fine on my machine.
actranny.
you gash.
Many play games rather than lie and seethe.
>>712867410Suzanne is Shigeru Miyamoto's brand new special character that will get her own spinoff games for female gamers who don't feel like playing as Mario.
>>712867418>Are you Snoys?
>>712867310>It seems to me like they want to drop something major every week on the Nintendo today app to keep it relevant.That's very ambitious, I hope you're right but I doubt it. I think it was reactionary to the reception of the Switch 2 having 1 game at the moment. Which is fine, rectify that, but I could maybe see monthly updates.
>>712850638I liked odyssey, it was nice to go back to a movement heavy game like sunshine and mario 64.
>>712850169One (1) good Mario Kart.
Sadly, Mario Kart World does not fit that category.
This has been a very succesful thread, almost at bump limit. I'm thinking we should keep the conversation going in a new thread. This has been very entertaining discussion and got me even more hyped over Donkey Kong Bananza!
>>712867553That's fine, I'm looking forward to DS2 too. This will be the second full game I play on my PS5 that I bought at launch.
Likely localization (since Cranky Kong in japanese is always heavily toned down) but I like the implication that Cranky Kong had an entire off-screen adventure against a known "Banana thief" (likely K. Rool) while Donkey Kong was away mining. Funny.
>>712867657Happy to help. Fuck the micro-transactions in DK Bananza, and any shill the supports it!
>>712856630thrusday will be fun.
I hope we hit 10 threads again.
>>712856496do you not recall what slider looked like in mario64?
the cloud cannon wing cap? sunshines panchinko machine? the poisoned rivered?
It's on par with past bonus stages if anything.
>>712867692Is Death Stranding 1 vs playing? Thinking of picking it up on PC.
I'm not actually a snoy. I only own a PS1 but I enjoyed games from that era like Metal Gear, Crash, Bloody Roar, Spyro etc
>>712863995Any game with dlc planned for it has to have the in app purchases notification on it
>>712867585Nah it was definitely planned remember they patched Splatoon 3 too with cross play between S1 and 2 which would require testing
>>712867741Just like the micro-transactions in Mario Wonder! (as in non-existent)
Glad we cleared that up. Will see you in the next thread chief while we ride this hype train all the way till launch.
>>712853512God I love ahsoka so much its unreal
>>712867734Given what he says, the Thief got away. Cranky was saying that he came to get DK, because HE was supposed to be guarding the horde, but went AWOL. So eventually we will likely have to deal with the Thief as well.
>>712867805Absolutely, but you'll either love it or hate it. I'm all for crazy Kojima stuff, so I had a great time with it. I hope they actually port it to the Switch 2 at some point, that would be cool. But at least Sony can say they have twice as many games as the Switch 2, at the moment. That being Astrobot and Death Stranding 2 vs Mario Kart World.
>>712867898It's King K. Rool.
>>712867873See
>>712867842It was planned and then obviously cancelled!
>>712867985I feel the initial backlash is because people were hoping for something more "cool" in the vein of Metal Gear Solid, but it went in a totally different direction. I've seen people warming up to it over time, but from the people who played it even at launch it seemed like they were having fun with it. I am probably going to pick it up, at the very least it seems like a unique game with interesting gameplay.
>>712868037So DK *might* get DLC, but nothing is set in stone? Neat! I hope it gets DLC because it looks like a really cool game.
>>712868096I didn't play it like an action game at all, I really avoided using anything lethal my play through. Yeah, I think people had the wrong expectations. But you're right, a lot of people are coming around to it, or the people that play it and don't like it know just don't care enough to comment anymore. It's definitely very unique, and has great atmosphere; that much people can generally agree on.
>>712857210>>712857078>muh in-game purchasesIt's Amiibo shit you dumb fucks.
Pretty sure BotW and TotK has the same disclaimer.
Is the fag really treating the shit you can collect in-game to trade for outfits and shit as actual microtransactions? You really are grasping for any straw no matter how non-existent it is huh.
>>712868175It's no so much "might" as it is planned. Remember how the Switch Pro was planned but turned into the Switch 2? That's what's happening with Mario Wonder and it's DLC at the moment. But DK doesn't have a new console launch to worry about, so the DLC will happen, almost guaranteed.
>>712868284I'll get the new Bananza Amiibos.
>>712868312I wouldn't be surprised if he was, I wasn't exactly following the reply chain.
>>712868284ToTK does not have the disclaimer, but BoTW does because it sells the extra content.
>>712868371Why are you so mean?
>>712868342>so the DLC will happen, almost guaranteed.Nice, looking forward to it. DK Bananza is shaping up to be an excellent and unique 3D platformer.
>>712868371HP Lovecraft DK Reboot when?
>>712868342Screenshotted.
>>712868497You will pay for NFT bananas and mirror levels, sorry!
Are you ready for her cute debut?
>>712868535Nice, I hope one of those /v/ twitter accounts steal the thread when I am proven right.
>>712868371Do we have any official word from Nintendo about this side character?
>>712868572Product page has micro-transactions in the ESRB rating. Hopefully it's nothing but the game is discounted.
>>7128501691 really good one you really like. Such as Splatoon. God I fucking love Splatoon.
>>712868561I am ready for the next generation of the Super Mario franchise.
>>712852158>hates fanboys>primed to lap up whatever slop and plopped in front of him without the slightest inclination for critical evaluationWhy trouble your mind with something like actually seeing how the game fucking plays before throwing Nintendo-san your autismbux?
I hope DK Bananaza has a season pass and gets Peter Griffin like Fortnite has.
>>712868595That's what the Donkey Kong Bananza Direct on Wednesday is for.
>>712867654Yeah
No inside drift.
No Fem Vill.
No buy.
>>712868784Anon, it's a single player game.
>>712850265This is Odyssey 2, anon.
>>712868561cute and funny
>>712868823That doesn't stop them from doing a battle pass.
>>712850169just splatoon or zelda are worth really buying this console for
idk if pokemon can still be redeemed
>>712869026>Nintendo would never work with Jewbiso-...
>>712869069>idk if pokemon can still be redeemedScarlet and Violet's biggest issues were its dogshit performance, and one free patch boosted up the resolution and gave it a locked 60fps. Switch 2 edition of Legends ZA also confirmed to run at 60, so yeah it will be more playable on Switch 2 at least.
>>712869229>missing half of the pokemon in a pokemon game is a nonissue How did you let the bar get so low?
>>712869190Game must have been loaded with micro transactions then right?
>>712869307Because the original games only had 150? Half of pokemon these days is 500+. I grew up with gen 1 and 2, I was used to having less than 300 pokemon per game. Even in Gen 4 the max amount was less than 500, and Gen 2-4 are considered peak Pokemon.
>>712869190Now let's see that battlepass.
>>712869190So where's the season pass?
>>712869341You're gonna want to sit down for this one bro...
>>712869420That was a hardware limitation, this is a "slop-minded developer/publisher" limitation. The gameboy carts could only hold so much, they've had no excuse for awhile now.
>>712869474>>712869513NTA but you know they do multiple kinds of passes on mobile games and stuff, right? Nintendo isn't above it.
>>712869632No, arbitrarily creating 100 new slopmons is a business minded decision
>>712869706>No proofConcession accepted.
>>712869787mario and fire emblem
>>712869842I don't see any advertisements for battle passes or season passes try again.
>>712869895try playing the game, i forget the names but they're passes that they charge money for.
>>712869523So it got DLC. Woooww.
Not really what I'd call microtransactions, though. Especially not in the vein of Fortnite.
>>712869984>zoomy calling cosmetic shit dlcwhat?
>>712870038It got three expansions with extra story content. That's just DLC.
>>712870089>They're going to sell clothes for the little girl and people are going to eat it upNintendo is a sick company.
>>712870105Mario and Fire Emblem on phones?!
>Tropical Freeze
>Donkey Kong has retractable teeth while Cranky doesn't
>Bananza
>Donkey Kong doesn't have retractable teeth while Cranky does
>>712870124There is a feature in-game where you trade in-game currency for clothes in shops, like Crazy Cap from Super Mario Odyssey.
>>712870089>They're going to sell clothes for the little girl and people are going to eat it upNintendo is a based company
>>712870228This confirms my theory that this is Diddy Kong grown up.
>>712870193>mobile gamesThose do tend to have microtransactions, that's true. But seeing as how that's limited to mobile games and I don't play games on my phone, it doesn't really effect me or Switch owners for that matter.
>>712870319Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong are not the same type of simian.
>>712870319So then what happened to his tail?
>>712870335Yes and the times are changing! Nintendo needs some money, that's why the games are $80 in the case of Mario Kart World, or $70+micro-transactions in the case of DK Bananza. These mobile game monetization strategies are more common now in full or near fulll-priced video games.
>>712870404Got plucked off Kami-sama style
>>712870394So Diddy is mixed? I thought Diddy was his son. Like there DK Jr being Donkey Kong, it's not that crazy.
>>712870404It's a Dragon Ball Z reference.
>>712863003>Rex had sex>Now Mario willlul
lmao.
Sounds great to me.
Link next.
>>712870440What type of micro transactions would this game even have?
>>712871039These pants will cost $4.99 + tip
>>712865514How exactly would new tracks work with Mario Kart World.
>>712871416Teleport off-map like rainbow road
>>712870484No Diddy's just his friend.
>>712864625did wonder even use amiibo?
I don't recall such.
The fuck is this advisory for?
>>712871671Nah, it seems like they had plans for DLC but those plans fell through. Then some people called me crazy and lost their minds for suggesting that they may have chosen to hold it for a Switch 2 re-release it with some extra exclusive content like they've done in the past. Not even an unheard of practice for anyone, especially Nintendo.
