Social NintenZone Social 4 - Bring It In, Guys!

[Aurane]

I voted for "Sometime after 2017" because there isn't a choice that means undecided.

 

[Ura]

What big Sony games are there this year?
I've got...
Fate/Extella
Nier: Automata

Uhm.
Sonic 2017.
KH3?

Crash
FF7R
Tekken 7

Among other things. That and I gotta finish up playing the games I bought and still have yet to beat.

 

[praline]

If Tiki does appear in Fire Emblem Warriors, I wonder which version they'll choose and how they will handle both versions if both versions appear in the game.

Come to think of it, will they do anything with Einherjar or the Outrealm for the game or even use them for the story? I mean, in the DLC for Awakening, the Einherjar had their own story revolving around them and despite them not really saying anything in the serving of the player(mostly doing "....."), they do, in fact, still speak and can even mistake themselves as the real deal as shown in the Awakening DLC. It'd be a rather interesting twist if it turned out that the characters we play in Fire Emblem Warriors were really Einherjar(except Anna. That'd be the real plot twist. Everybody's a fake except Anna).

The game has gotta do with the Outrealm. I feel like that has to be a given. I guess we will see on the 18th potentially.

Crash Trilogy I didn't know was this year.

FF7R has PLUMMETED in interest for me with each passing announcement.

And fighting games lol no thanks.

Was planning on getting Switch for Christmas but my brother wound up telling my mum so if she's able to get one then it'll be at launch.
The issues I have are mainly in relation to hardware and price. The Software for me is fantastic, I just wish more was available sooner.
NMH 3 and SMT V might not be until 2019 which would suck.

Oh, it actually sold out eventually? I'm surprised considering how upset people were. I got it at six in the morning the morning after the presentation at Target and there wasn't any real competition at all.

To be fair there weren't too many up for pre-order anyway apparently.

KH3?

FF7R

They're still "a ways off"
If they reach 2017 it'll be a bloody miracle.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

They're still "a ways off"
If they reach 2017 it'll be a bloody miracle.

How about Persona 5, the only reason why I want a PS4

 

[Ura]

I know but the first part of the game should be coming out this year. Unless i'm hearing things wrong.

 

[Schnee117]

How about Persona 5?

That has a release date on 4th April
inb4 delay to winter this year for Spanish dub

I know but the first part of the game should be coming out this year. Unless i'm hearing things wrong.

It most likely won't.
Nomura said its a ways off.

Ahh. I didn't know that. The more you know I guess.

Here's hoping we don't have another FF15 on our hands.

 

[Z25]

I was talking about racing tracks.

But thanks!

I just realized the Splatoon track was a battle track XD

IT should be noted that according to Andre from GX, they weren't letting people see the race track selection when doing racing and not battle mode in the MK 8 demo.

So we may have new tracks coming.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

This is really funny.

If it gets delayed again I swear I will silently flip a table in anger

Either Nintendo are pulling an amiibo/NES mini and having understocked their supply or they actually managed to get people really interested in the Switch....

At least in the UK...

Is it me or is that a really big problem of Nintendo's lately. I mean, every time you hear about something with a "limited quantity" in any way, shape, or form of Nintendo's you are always hearing about how they don't provide it.
The Amiibo Crisis, the NES Mini Disaster, Gamecube Adapters, Literally ANY special edition of any game on any Nintendo Console, the ****ing CHARGERS for the 3DS. Some said before that it was a strategic move and while I really don't see it, I get where they are coming from but the fact that they make all of the things that are:
1. Mostly easy and cheep to manufacture.
2. Have a high demand/price ratio.
and 3. Should be easy to ship.
makes me think that Nintendo just generally underestimates their demand at this point.
Ok, so look at stores before let's say...2012. You usually see 2-3 copies of their bigger games 1-2 of smaller ones, you can usually get most of your accessories generally easily, you could even find a rare game once and a while if you knew about it. Fast forward and I usually only see 1 copy of each bigger game with a niche game sprinkled in once and a while. I couldn't find a charger for my Wii U gamepad offline and had to look on Ebay, there was 1 GC Adapter in the store when I got mine and they said "You got the last one.", One day I saw a restock of Shulks, Little Macs, Ikes, and other Amiibo back 2 years ago and it was completely gone not a single one left the next day. It's crazy. It's like Nintendo collectors got injected with Collector's Rabies and want to buy everything as fast as possible.
While this is happening, Nintendo is looking at us saying "What do you want ME to do about it?". Like really? All you have to do is make more product and if the demand is too high, give up. You already lost, you know. Jeez.

It occurred to me after I typed that down, although with the internet being the way it was my worrywart head thought even that might have been overstocking. Apparently it was all according to keikaku after all.


Apparently Wal-Mart might have ordered a larger stock than usual, which makes them selling out a bit more curious though. Especially since most gamers would probably try Gamestop or Amazon first.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

Launch times are pretty fast.

 

[Tree Gelbman]

This is really funny.

Yo Bowser, calm thy self you let him and the rest of the children in your employment fight her directly in Smash tournaments.

I think in person is just a touch more...risqué.

I really do hope that this won't become a huge issue for the Switch of all things. Since I do hope to purchase it sometime this year and not have another Wii type deal going on again....

 

[Mythra]

Im kinda ok with the model Nintendo is attempting this year.

They put to preoder a limited stock that will attract Zelda fans. It goes sold out and gives the impression of high demand.
Spring; Arms and Sonic Mania to attract curious buyers.
Enter the Summer, the third wave of games comes, including Splatoon 2 and MK8+, attracting another wave of consumers, add E3 to the mix and the console stock of that quarter gets sold.
Holidays, the test of fire with Mario Odyssey backed by X-Mas and Black Friday discounts, which means a bigger system stock that hopefuly will sold out.

The idea is not attract everyone on day one, but in the long haul attracting different kinds of consumers per season. And with +80 titles in the making that idea has a lot of potential.

 

[Coricus]

OK, I just thought of another question.

Which people here are actually locked into the Switch? I see plenty of people that aren't, but it'd be interesting to know who else actually managed to slip a preorder in.

 

[MF Viewtiful]

This is really funny.

Say what you will be about Bowser. Dude is a great single father.

 

[Tree Gelbman]

OK, I just thought of another question.

I got one from Amazon around 3am after the presentation. Clicked away went back to the search, it was sold out.

 

[Kurri ★]

Fate/Extella
Nier: Automata

Uhm.
Sonic 2017.
KH3?

Edit: Genuinly forgot P5, GR2, DRV3 international this year.
Also that N-Sane trilogy is comnig THIS year? damn.

There's tons of big games coming out for Playstation this year. There's:

Last of Us Part 2
Tekken 7
Injustice 2
Gravity Rush 2 (recently came out)
Mass Effect: Adromeda
Horizon Zero Dawn
Days Gone
Dragon Quest Heroes 2
Ghost Recon Wildlands
God of War
Gran Turismo Sport
Ni No Kuni 2
Spiderman
Tales of Berseria
and plenty more come E3

Now, whether or not these are games that interest you, I dunno. But they're big enough games.

 

[SegaNintendoUbisoft]

OK, I just thought of another question.

I'm not getting it launch day, but I plan to get it sometime in 2017.

This is really funny.

Bowser is the dad we should all aspire to be.

 

[Ivander]

OK, I just thought of another question.

I managed to. They still had 2 left where I pre-ordered and I managed to get the one with colors. That being said, whether I will get it without any problems at launch is another story.

 

[Kirby Dragons]

This is really funny.

I think Bowser just wants Bayo for himself. That'd explain why you could use his hands as a Madama Butterfly swap on the Wii U.

 

[Wario Bros.]

OK, I just thought of another question.

I'm locked but I'll miss launch as I ain't dealing with the limited supply bull ****.

 

[Coricus]

Say what you will be about Bowser. Dude is a great single father.

His career choices for his son are a bit questionable, but other than that he's clearly a loving father. He clearly cares about Peach, too, even if he's a bit. . .bad at expressing it.

I've seen truly evil villains, and as much as Bowser talks a big talk and would never admit it he isn't one of them.

 

[Fluttershy]

For the current poll considering my brother has pre-ordered the Switch it'll be At launch lol.

Also doing the Multi-battle with Anabelle I have Koko and Nihilego and she has Raikou and Entei. Koko, and Raikou are the kicking ass xD

 

[Wario Bros.]

Say what you will be about Bowser. Dude is a great single father.

You seem to forget Jr. has a mother

 

[Tree Gelbman]

I've always wanted Bowser's wife to just show up randomly one day. Though I feel like as sad and desperate he is to get the affection of Peach. I feel like his wife or the mother of Bowser Jr has passed away.

Which makes me love the big doofus more. He's just a ''evil" widow, who doesn't really do much ''evil", is a great father, and just has a hell of a crush on the wrong girl.

 

[CyberHyperPhoenix]

Wait?
Fire Emblem Warriors is bigger than we could have imagined
Hyrule Warriors will probably get dethroned as Waifu Warriors

Speaking of FE Warriors, I really hope they don't just go with Shadow Dragon, Awakening and Fates characters, even though the teaser trailer implies as such.

 

[Opossum]

Speaking of Bowser, he's featured in today's Final Smash Comic.

[Mythra]

OK, I just thought of another question.

Im 124% convinced of buying it asap, but the 3rd world slows me down, I'll need to play my cards wisely to see where I can get it for a fair price.

 

[PhantomKite]

If Bowser is "Evil", he is doing a terrible job at it. He's not threatening, hasn't taken out Mario in more in 30 Years of trying and routinely goes to the Olympics with the man, Gannondorf probably bullies him out of his lunch money, it's not a pretty sight.
But if Bowser is re-contextualized as a single dad trying to balance achieving his goals of being recognized as a world leader and taking out a life long rival while raising a child with a wife who's passed away. If done right, you may have one of the most emotionally tearing (I guess that's the correct word) games of all time.
TLDR: If Bows is a dad then the Switch will be a platinum seller.

I slipped in a preorder just now woth 2 left, today was the last day to preorder too at my gamestop.

Got it mostly for my dads enjoyment
