Hahaha you fool.

Huh, turns out my local store is doing a midnight release, so that'll just be 5 more hours.

If it's not BotW, it'll be PUBG. Those are the two games with the most mass appeal, but BotW can be undercut by Mario votes.

Completely arbitrary, but I feel like the Switch's roadmap will probably be something like

Jan - Nothing mayor, but some minor releases
Feb - Bayos
March - Kirby
April - Mayor Bamco Title
May - Pikmin
June - Yoshi
July - nuthin much
August - Mayor Third Party Title
September - Fire Emblem
October - Super Mario Maker
November - Super Smash Bros. For Switch
December - Retro's Mystery Game

I feel like July could be maybe a Next Level Studios game, but otoh I can see Nintendo pushing them to keep at the 3DS for one more title.

If it's just Smash deluxe, it wouldn't take as long to make. I'm still assuming it launches along with their online service. Something has to.

This is definitely what I am thinking. They hid Sakurai in a basement sometime after the Switch reveal and just worked on porting the Wii U game to Switch, maybe reworking 3DS stages and possibly an additional 2-4 characters.

Smash is too big to be a summer title, imo. And they could even base their 2018 schedule around it, i.e. every Direct and conference becomes more important because there could be a Smash reveal.

Kirby and Yoshi (and mp4, and all bayos) had, and still have, their preorder pages up and with proper thumbnails. The amazon games are all unnannounced titles.

It can't backfire if they show Bayo 3, MP4, Smash4, Retro Studio's new IP, Pokemon and also like ten new games to meet all expectations ever.

I'm getting way too in the conspiracy theory mindset, but now i'm thinking that the direct's been "delayed" to early February, just to gently caress and destroy credibility of leakers.

This is just all sorts of wrong

You know that there's been many many many actual correct leaks throughout the industry, right? Like, not "random list of bullshit things where 1/16 things are correct", like times where the leaks have been 100% spot on for multiple items, including that 4chan leak you dismissed. Factoring in how much of the leaks are right/wrong is actually something that matters, especially when a bunch of poo poo you can make up are easy soft-balls like "Nintendo is going to make a 3D mario game!"

It's also kind of ridiculous to say she got more info right than from random guessing. The other things she got right were a 3D mario game, Just Dance 2017, and a Mario Kart 8 port (alongside other non-existent Wii U ports). Even if you're willing to give her Mario Kart, which you shouldn't, that's still a batting average of 2 things that she had privy info on compared to the other 12 clear guesses which were were mostly wrong. Not including the pricing stuff.

I can understand someone going to bat for emily rogers, who got a bunch of stuff right. Later a bunch of her stuff was wrong, but at least she had more than a handful of correct things. LKD, on the other hand, isn't really worth defending her record

What about mario+rabbids?

It's a Q4 game, most likely. Better wait 'till we're closer, like in E3.
