A real hellraiser


You realize decisions like that are made months or a year or more in advance. They probably decided what platforms to put that on before the Switch even came out.

I don't think Capcom has done anything Switch related other than Monster Hunter 3DS port and a half-arsed version of a 25 year old fighting game.

Nah."

Capcom continues to make the best possible business choices :downs:

But Capcom knew what the Switch was going to be far in advance more so then normal developers; Capcom convinced Nintendo to add more ram which means they knew of it while still in its design phase

The tags that were on the direct video before being taken down were Smash Bros, Mother, and F-Zero

Announced for everything BUT the Switch

Have they explicitly stated as much, or is it just absent from the roster? Because they might well be trying to hide it for the Direct tomorrow.

I fully expect that's not the case, just that it's the kind of game they'd save for a Direct.

I would love to see Okami HD announced during the Direct. We don't need no stinkin 4K. 1080p will be just fine :colbert:

Okami was a hell of a lot of fun back in the day.

If they were smart, they'd at least give a vague "Switch version coming at a later date ." And haul rear end to start working on a Switch version. There's zero reason why Disney Saturday Morning and Mega Man Collection wouldn't be at least announced for Switch.

They are going to announce Pearl for Smash. I know it.

Marina would be a better fit, she uses a Brella as opposed to Pearl who uses Duallies.

If Okami comes for the switch it should come with a pen to draw with too.

This is capcom we're talking about though, who is notorious for looking at all the potentially good decisions they have on their table, flipping the table, and just making a street fighter game

I want a smash stage that is splatfest with the Squid Sisters and Off The Hook performing in the background.


Also, pearl is more a lock for mariokart. One of their stage intros she says she tried to bring her gokart to Humback Pump Track and they wouldn't let her.

Good.

Inklings are great. I hope there is a playable inkling in Smash with a complex ink mechanic that covers any stage in your color of ink (it would have to fade quickly) that slows down the opponent or damages them slightly. Also another cool use for FLUDD, hydrant, and watering can.

Splatoon is easily the equal of games like Ocarina of Time and Mario64 and deserves to be included in Smash.

By adding Pearl.

I mean it's entirely possible it's all wrapped up in Smash considering characters from those games and Bayo are in Smash.

Is that Metroid Amiibo set a limited thing? I've never bought any before but on Friday when I pick up Samus Returns I'd kinda like to get it because the squishy metroid one is really cool
