Social The Social Thread 3.2.2 - Switch 2 Hype Time!

[Noipoi]

lolWiiU

This basically describes life as a Nintendo fan in the mid 2010s

 

[Dukefire]

Just a little something. If you watched Owl House, Dana Terrace is cooking a new show with Glitch if interested. Just beware that it is Sci-Fi horror based on the teaser.

 

[TMNTSSB4]

Imagine this high strung about ****ing Kamiya

I started Black Clover recently.

I like it so far. It's alright, but nothing special.

Remember when I said I had a backlog of like, over 50 games the other day?

Well...

What game should I play next? - StrawPoll

What is your opinion? Vote now: Ori and the Will of the Wisps, The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom, Okami, Mario & Luigi: Brothership, Dark Souls Remastered, Metroid Dread, Hollow

I'm requesting help on deciding which game to play next. Haven't used Strawpoll in a while.

 

[Z25]

Only those that were desperate for news.

You joke but someone will probably actually leak stuff from it then or around that time.

It’s what they did with Let’s Go. No one believed them until the game was revealed and people went

“wait…, what???”

 

[Pink Yoshi]

It's his birthday today

Sorry I didn't see this earlier. Been out most of today.

Anyway, happy spud birthday! May all your most wanted characters get into Smash!

Oh you're the guessing boy alright. Whenever someone needs a guess, who do they call? The guessing boy. That's you.

Stop the count!

Haven’t played everything on here but, Mario rpg, hollow knight and I believe Okami are shorter games( haven’t played it yet but it’s on my list). So if your looking to complete them an enjoy them, you should be able to get through those fast enough, depending how much time you have to play.

 

[KingofPhantoms]

So far, Super Mario RPG is in the lead with Okami as the runner-up.

I'm surprised Zelda and Brothership haven't gotten any votes yet, but not at all surprised that Okami and Hollow Knight are doing so well.

Brothership is really fun, but it takes a while to really get started and it takes a while to wrap up. The pacing is really off at times.

RPG is a much tighter experience overall, you’ll be done soon and can move further down your backlog quicker.

Hollow Knight is NOT a shorter game lmao

 

[Knight Dude]

I have a feeling many PS4/XBO era games will get Switch 2 ports. If the specs are right, it'll be about as strong as a PS4 Pro is supposed to be. So it'll end-up being kind of a catch-up machine for a lot of people like Switch 1 was. Only this time it wasn't Wii-U games no one played. What I am curious about is how many PS5 era games could see releases. I know quite a few of them still ended up on PS4 as it is. So that's probably less of an issue. But could something like Tekken 8 work on Switch 2 with some minor compromises? I can't see Square missing the chance to slap KH3 or FF7R on something else that's supposed to be as strong as a PS4 Pro. Nor Capcom missing out on porting Resident Evil 4 to yet another console, original or remake.

Or both, see the Reverend take the oath.

Lenora or Olivia right there, but we know how some of those "People" move.

Lol, no way I saw someone say "Metroid Prime 4 should be the launch game for switch 2"

My ***** in christ. No one is gonna buy a switch 2 is MP4 is the launch (minus the Metroid fans) but they WILL buy a switch 2 if Mario Kart is the launch

Consoles launch with multiple games.

Don't know if it's already been posted here, but people seem to have figured out who all 24 characters shown in the new Mario Kart are:

This is just a clear list of them.
Here's the link to the actual blurry-ass post if you want to decide for yourself what you're seeing:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Mario/comments/1i2szfd/saw_this_on_twitter_heres_an_image_naming_the_24/

Out of these I'd usually gravitate towards Birdo or King Boo but Bowser is looking so good in this one that I might pick him.

Dread's gonna be a quicker one, all things considered. It's also pretty peak outside of the OST being kind of whatever.

That’s a kind of weak lineup. Although I guess it could get better with dlc. And it’s possible this isn’t everyone.

Yeah people work fast. I only really noticed 12 or 13 characters. Glad Shy Guy is there that's one of the mainstays.

If 24 characters are gonna be there per race now, I wanna see not just Diddy Kong but hopefully Dixie and Funky. Hell, Petey too. Cause I can't imagine most of the MK8 characters wouldn't make it in. And that'd be nearly all of Double Dash's cast too, cept Paratroopa, but I ain't losing sleep over that one.

Bruh, It's early footage. MK8 had more than 24 characters on launch I think right? That only needed 12 per race but had 30 or near 30 on launch. We're probably at least getting the 7 Koopa Kids on top of these guys. And maybe a few of the ones mentioned before too.

 

[Pink Yoshi]

I had an idea for Purore's fossils and I'm insanely excited to get it out there. However I'm busy for a few days and might not get a chance to really hash them out for a bit.

Let's just say one of them has a typing you may not get at first, but if you know your type lore you'll probably get it.

Idk. I’m just used to rosters shrinking. Hopefully there is more. And hopefully we get dlc.

Also am I the only one who thinks it’s weird Mario Kart has never had a Goomba on the roster? It can play baseball but it can’t drive, apparently.

I mean sure, but logistically, we're probably getting a bit more than that cause the amount of racers is nearing F-Zero levels. No guarantee of course but still. DLC is almost certain to happen cause Mario Kart is too popular not to. It's more of a weird outlier that Mario Party doesn't. Xenoblade does, Smash does, Pokemon does, ect.

Probably not, but I don't give a **** about Goomba in any capacity whatsoever.

I don't even have any attachment to Goombas, it's just weird to me that one of the two most iconic basic mario enemies has never been in Mario Kart.

Nah, I get that, that's fair. Just that you won't catch me shilling for the guy, instead I dunno E.Gadd or the evil lady from the new Peach game.

I'm only gonna shill for Diddy, Dixie, Cranky, Funky, and K. Rool. Even if that means they're all gonna get ugly redesigns that make them look more like Mario/Nintendo characters than Rare characters.

I know this makes me sound like a lunatic but Donkey Kong not feeling like a Nintendo thing is part of why he’s so appealing to me. I still treat him like a Rare character, even after all these years.

No, you're right. The Rare versions of the DK crew will always be my favorite and losing those will be a shame.

If K. Rool looks like his Smash design going forward though I would be fine with that.
