I don't mind fanboyism as long as people are willing to admit the faults of what they love.

I'm perfectly understanding of the fact this is way more exciting for people who play strictly on Nintendo, anyway. Just wish people would understand why others aren't that excited.
Never use fanboyism for insulting people, that's all. It's not gonna make you better at all.
I do admit those flaws of course. And sorry about that huge rambling on Shiko's video, it's not really good, but hey that's just his opinion and I respect that. But for those who want to know how good was the presentation don't look at that video.
My personal problem with Nintendo is that they focus on my country which has a huge gaming population (Since Taiwan young ones loves Japan stuff, including me to some degree). And glad that Switch has no region lock cuz that was the problem with Taiwan's 3DS, it had the least playable games, which sucks out loud.

wait wait does that mean ill have to pay at launch right away to plat online and If I dont, I wont be able to play online at all? That needs explaining
Nintendo's online service will be available only in USA, Canada and Mexico at launch. No news about the rest of the world.

I assume you live in the US. So you don't need to worry. You have the free period after which you have to pay.

I suppose Ninty either doesn't want to cannibalize sales or causing any huge game droughts if they released all their big games in one go. Which I guess I'll be fine with if most, if not all revealed games will be coming out this year.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe will be coming out a month after the Switch release no?

I think at this rate I should probably just sell/trade in my Wii U...

Assuming Akaneia characters besides Marth are confirmed to appear in FE Musou, I'm hoping Minerva and Merric make it as playable.

Assuming we got 10 characters from Akaneia, here's what I think would be a good selection:
-Marth
-Sheeda
-Julian
-Merric
-Minerva
-Tiki
-Hardin
-Camus
-Gharnef
-Medeus

Probably should swap Julian out for someone else but w/e.

...I didn't insult you though.

...you know, I won't even bother.

Honestly, as pessimistic as this may sound, I feel like the Switch came too late. Even if it ends up having a ton of third party support as time passes, I have a hard time imagining many current PS4/Xbone owners being interested in the new console.

I don't know if it has been said yet but the Wii U port of Breath of the Wild is still alive and will launch alongside the Switch.

If we can ride a Pegasus in the battle, that would be sick.
Azura should be playable. I want Tharja, Tiki and Takumi too.
Don' really know many FE characters.

the changes are actually so ****ing funny

read JWong's twitter for more
Sounds like suffering for anyone who likes Honda.

I wouldn't mind trying messing around with this game though.

Oh, and you can select your color instead of it being mapped to buttons.

TBH...I actually really hope Tharja is playable in FE Warriors...

She was one of my favourite characters in Awakening...

Since I don't have a Roster Maker with me, I'll just type who I think will be in Fire Emblem Warriors

Practically Confirmed
Marth
Chrom
Corrin
Ryoma
Xander

My Predictions
Caeda
Medeus
Lucina
Robin
Azura
Takumi
Camilla
Ike
Black Knight
M̶i̶a̶
Anna
Tiki

I could also see Soren and Titiana replace Anna and Tiki if we get Tellius characters
If Ike is not in the game I'd be surprised. Also Lyn is pretty popular so I could see her. I just hope this game isn't 80% playable swordsmen.

I wouldn't worry too much about that, Omega Force usually goes the extra mile for the non-Dynasty Warriors Warriors titles.

I just hope there's no Awakening or Fates favoritism because I'd like to see the old characters in 3D and with updated art much more

Also, in case you cared about Crunchyroll's anime awards
Language warning
Kira should've gotten 3rd place smh

Only those who owns PS4/Xbone owners who only plays those third party games and don't play Nintendo game. And I'm not even mad if they don't care about Nintendo Switch.
Between this and "KINGDOM HEARTS 3 RELEASES IN 2017", I feel like IGN are going out of their way to be terrible reporters.


Also MARIO ODYSSEY IS UP
Fake... and those on Etika's stream went to the Wiki page and ruin the page...

The thing I'm most disappointed with is the online subscription. Now all consoles are doing it, and Nintendo's online services haven't exactly been that great. So unless there's major improvements, I can't help but be skeptical of it being all that great. It won't be a big deal if the price is really cheap though.

The only thing I cared about was if I could play online with others.

If Ike is not in the game I'd be surprised. Also Lyn is pretty popular so I could see her. I just hope this game isn't 80% playable swordsmen.
If it's like Hyrule Warriors, you'll have multiple weapons for some characters. If I'm not mistaken, Ike can use an Axe in Radiant Dawn, for example. I'm sure they will vary it up regardless.

Which are a lot of people. Like, a lot a lot.

Nintendo makes good games, great games even, but that's not enough to carry a console, as evident by the Nintendo 64, the Gamecube, and the Wii U.

Is Yooka-Laylee Switch bound?

I can't recall.
IIRC, Yes. When they announced they canceled the Wii U port, they stated they're working with Nintendo for the Switch version.

Won't launch alongside the other consoles though.

I don't want to be rude or anything but, if you don't want these nostalgia flashbacks and rather obscure, playful banter by the Nintendo team then why are you watching the live stream? They do this in EVERY SINGLE ONE of their Treehouse events.
