Metroid Prime 4 is never coming out. They entertained the idea of releasing it, even let some devs kid design some box art and some test footage as a joke, but the fact is we were NEVER getting MP4. And that's a good thing!
>hopesgames>fearsno games>expectations ports ports ports
>>719603827You really expect them to talk about Zelda rn
>>719603683Well, since Punch-Out, Kid Icarus, and Planet Robobot aren't happening, I guess Splatoon Raiders?
>>719603965ports are games, especially to poor people who are tendie only
>>719603683Why does it seem like the only thing nintendo fans on this board get excited about is the chance to see commercials for games they won't buy?
>>719604003>Planet RobobotThis was never happening and you're dumb if you even entertained the notion
>>719603982kinda!
>>719604003>>719604056How are you gonna feel if it happens now
>>719604090Well, I'd feel downright delighted at the news.
>>719604090It won't, ever, but if it does, screencap this post and spam it and I will eventually see it and shove a sharpie up my ass
>>719603683nah. fuck Nintendo
>>719603872You fucking asshole they only just released their lowest effort and simultaneously highest selling game they are way too busy rolling around in cash to deliver you an experience acceptable for 2025 and you should consider going trans for even suggesting it
>>719603683It's just going to be the Mario 40th. They will announce it on the 10th and it will air on the 12th. It will be sometime in the afternoon, unlike regular directs. 1pm PST/5pm EST. You can expect to see a trailer for Mario Movie 2, a port of Galaxy 2 for Switch 2 (because Mario Movie 2 involves Rosalina) and finally a teaser that a new 3d Mario game is in development and will release in 2026.The general direct will be in Sept, but I don't know what week, the only thing I know is that it will have a big focus on Metroid Prime 4.
>>719604031How do you know they're not buying it, anon?
>>719604491Wouldn’t it make more sense for th mario direct to happen this week

Why are the autists who love posting their imagination as official news so obsessed with Galaxy 2 by the way? If we we're gonna get it jt would have been with 3D Allstars. There will be no Allstars 2. Get over it.

>>719604607Super Mario Bros released in Japan Sept 13th, 1985. There is no point in having a direct a week before and then celebrating. A direct then is 5AM for Japan, early for sure, but on the day of the anniversary.
>>719604672NTA but Galaxy 2 would make excellent use of the Switch 2's mouse pointer.
>>719604818Yeah but the 35th direct was during the first week of september
>>719604918It would but it won't happen any more than WW/TP HD coming to switch will happen

>>719605449I don't even have the energy to do that anymore, I'm just expecting it to be about Mario. Maybe even just a trailer premiere for the next movie that they'll call a Direct

>>719605948Ha...
The next 3D Mario will probably be announced in the 40th Anniversary Direct.
>>719605845They didn't want to load up on animation. They want as many different styles as they can, to show that they have different kinds of movies that various kinds can enjoy. Live action was preferred for Zelda because they don't want to seem like it is specifically for kids. Zelda movie is targeting teens. They will likely go for much the same if a Metroid movie is ever made. The DK movie will be your other animated feature because it is seen as more silly and thus kid friendly.
>>719605948We get >mario kart world >Garfield kart >sonic kart >kirby air riders and now f-zero?

>>719606285>The movie's out next April,Is there a metroid movie?
>>719606383No, I'm talking about the next Mario movie. And even then, I don't want a Metroid movie

>>719605662What a punchable art style.
Wildcard prediction but I think we will see a switch 2 upgrade for 3d world including new characters, namely daisy with her super mario run double jump, toadette with some higher speed stats and lower jumps than mario but still not high jumpwise and not as low speedwise as toad, and dk with a scaled back version of his bananza moveset
>>719606813I kinda feel like we'd know about remasters of 2/3 by now. Either that, or that they'd be announced before Prime 4. But the fact that Prime 4 was properly revealed with no remasters of 2/3 in between the one of 1 makes me think Retro just moved straight to 4. And as much as I'd like to say that a release date for Prime 4 is an expectation, I'm still bracing myself for it to just be about Mario

>>719603683Nothing matters until they bring the price down. It’s just not going to sell at $500+. There’s a reason they stopped bragging about sales after the second week.Once the price comes down I want to hear about Smash, ideally with a new director and a priority on making the online play enjoyable.As much as the Switch needed an upgrade, I still maintain that they have a bigger software problem than a hardware problem. There was a serious lack of new games on Switch 1, and it’s not like they can just port up games nobody played from the previous generation this time around. I’d love to see some “New Classics” announcement, where they commit to releasing smaller 16-bit scale games every few months to maintain a stream of new content. Bring back the “handheld tier” of games.

Mario Galaxy 3
>>719608440It's better if you use a wired gamecube controllernwith a wired adapter
Seriously they couldn't have done something like the 3DS with the Switch 1 handheld games and the resolution?? How is this acceptable to anyone?? Between the storage situation and this problem you CANNOT replace your switch 1 with a switch 2. And they look RETARDED side by side
>>719604491It would be so funny if it was just the Mario Direct this month and nothing else. Everything else like Metroid and FF7r/ER will get Nintendo Today release date drops. If that actually happens, then I think I can safely say that Furukawa is a giant retard.
>>719608696You want a Wario Land, or a Wario World? Can only choose one.Better yet, take both! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

>>719609859my sense of time is wonky, I thought it was much longer ago
>>719609760Also I wouldn't expect anything about a new Smash for a while, if that's even happening at all, since Sakurai is doing Air Riders at the moment
>>719609859>Brothership was last yearNTA but was Nintendo any better in 2024 compared to how they are now in 2025? There’s a lot of stuff people weren’t expecting that came with the Switch 2, namely the Monkey Paws such as Game Key Cards, the Price and Upgrade Packs
>>719603683will likely be slop, like the last several directs
>>719605948Considering how he is one of the first fighters for Smash he is likely going to get a game-movie combo unless we are in the bad timeline where he appear in the Smash Bros movie during the kidnapping exposition intro
>>719603940This guy gets it. But I'd remove the fears section. Monolith is one of those studios where I know they'll deliver, even if they do some whacky shit.
>>719603683i will be boughting a switch 2 if they release Arms 2
>>719603683Hoping for a New Luigis Mansion and Paper Mario, Galaxy 3 because the 2nd mario movie is clearly going to shovel in the other princesses and since the lands are limited the next villain is likely coming from spaceMy fears is that its going to be another mario maker or some shitty rabids mario game and then just announce Smash Bros Melee on the online expansion pack with nothing else until next summer expectations is probably going to be a short animation celebrating 40 years and release dates on everything we don't know yet along with more ports based on old mario games
>>719611043>Game Key CardsNintendo doesn't use game key cards, this is just something they came up with since third party publishers like Square Enix and Take Two were selling codes in boxes instead of physical versions of switch games >the Price anyone who thought the switch 2 would be the same price as the switch 1 is retarded>Upgrade PacksThey're just DLC and the ones that don't have new content you get with the Expansion Pass. The only really egregious ones are Metroid Prime and Pokemon but they're not out yet and we still don't know if the Switch 2 versions of those games will get extra content or not
>>719603683>Favorite IP's are Kid Icarus and Wave RaceBros... it's joever...
Something Castlevania because I want to hope.
>>719603940This, hoping for anything monolith related.
>>719610779air riders is probably finished or closed to finished. If he is working on smash he's probably started by now

>>719604168Why do I get the feeling you're threatening yourself with a good time?
>>719608923Correction: they shipped more switch2s to retailers than switch1s for the launch window. Even Nintendo hasn’t claimed sell-through numbers. Why do you think they increased the price of Switch1? Tarriffs? LMAO those consoles were manufactured and imported a year ago. They need to make it look like less of a value next to the new system. Nintendo is not a stupid company. They know exactly how much they can squeeze out of their millennial manchild core audience, and they know that as soon as they are forced to cut the price, every one of the suckers with buyers remorse will immediately pivot to a “well it was totally worth $550 to me” cope.

LMAO those consoles were manufactured and imported a year agoTo offset the tariffs on Switch 2, retard?And btw, you don't ship millions of Switch 1 consoles a year in advance. You'll have to pay out of your ass for storing them for that long. Unless you mean Switch 1 has been collecting dust on retailer shelves for a year. In that case, you are a retard.They already did make Switch 2 look like it has better value by not dropping Switch 1 price.So many people here were saying for years that once Switch 2 is out Nintendo will drop the price of Switch 1 and I always told them that's counterproductive because it will make Switch 1 look like a better deal when they want to sell Switch 2.>$550And you couldn't even stop yourself from lying about the price for one post.

>>719618728Unlikely. That'd require the devs (KT, IS, whoever developed LM3, etc) to update their games themselves, and their dev teams most likely disbanded already. Also why Smash didn't get an update. Only house Nintendo stuff gets done + Pokemon. Animal Crossing might get an update but like who really gives a shit
>>719603683All I want is gens 1-3 of Pokemon on Switch/2. I don't know why this is a difficult thing for them.

>>719618728You'll have them dripfed slowly through the entire generation with multiple unpopular games getting priority for seemingly no reason and you'll be thankful.
>>719603683I don't blame people for expecting but I feel we should've learned long ago that the best thing is to expect nothing when it comes to Nintendo. Hard to even say when the last time they had a solid direct was.

>>719611043Last year for Switch 1 and they still had a better games than the 4th year of Sony's new console lol
>>719628543I stopped caring about Paper Mario when Color Trash confirmed the series as I knew it was dead for good.
>>719618832Nice argument, retard.>N-N-Nintendo didn't give sell through numbers! It's shipped!>They did...>THEY'RE F-F-FAKE AIEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>719603683>HopesXenoblade upgrades, MP4 release date or direct announcement, Resident Evil native ports>FearsNo monolith related stuff>Expectations Release dates for all the shit already announced, the focus of the direct is in Duskbloods (i dont hate Fromsoft but im also not a fan)
>>719628946retard
>>719603827It's funny to me you think you'll get a 'zelda' game within the next 5 years. You'll get more ubislop in 2027 and you will like it.
>>719603683i have no interest in what they show until the switch 2 lite version is released
>>719630070>2027*2032Saw the 2020 several posts up and brainfarted
>>719621863Holy cringe
>>719629994This means nothing until they show a new game that's not another Sticker Shit clone
>>719609270If September only gets a Mario Direct, especially if it's basically only going to be a whole bunch of shit except for new games, then the panic and uneasiness/impatience is going to skyrocket. Which wouldn't be totally unfounded IMO.
>>719611894>My fears is that its going to be another mario makerthis would be huge if they could somehow enable creation of mario 64 levels.
>>719621916Nothing's going to kill Christmas sales, but I still think sales are going to get extremely rocky after the holiday season. Especially depending on what all they announce soon. I know they're going to aggressively push Tomodachi Life 2 as basically be their substitute for Animal Crossing.
>>719603683>HopesNew starfox using the mouse controllerElaboration on the dark matter teaser from the Kirby Air Riders direct, likely story mode>FearsNo MP4 release date>ExpectationsDuskbloodsMario 40th anniversary roadmapNo MP4 release date
>>719603827>There are people out there who still like this kind of design.
>>719603683I need a new mario, zelda and xenoblade chronicles x 2 announcement. Then I will continue supporting nintendo till the end of time.
>>719632491>I WANT IT NOW NOW NOW NOOOOOOOWWWWWThis is why sandbox gameplay was such a horrible idea for Zelda - it's conditioned players to be spoiled brats who now think that not having devtool level powers from the start of the game or being allowed to do whatever you want whenever is "stuffy" or "outdated".
Please announce some 2025 exclusives
>>719634490Jesus, yeah, nintendo needs a direct as soon as possible
>>719634490Z-A comes out in October, though I understand that this is an EXCLUSIVE list. However, many 2026 games will also be available for the original Switch.
>>719634990then they aren't exclusive
>>719603683Prime 4 delay
im only really looking forward to raiders, qnd rhythm heavengive me a new punch out/luigis mansion, though? kino. i want to see a gane that's primarily developed for the switch 2
>>719635105The Switch 1 isn't done yet, so why would games stop releasing on it? New games for it will probably be announced in the next direct.
>>719603683>hopesDigimon Story Time Stranger Astral Chain 2Sega Saturn/Dreamcast gets added to NSO>Fears The direct streams while I'm at work >ExpectationsMetroid Prime 4 newsKirby Air Rider character reveal Splatoon spinoff newsPorts that I may or may not care about
>>719634990>many 2026 games will also be available for the original SwitchThere's only Rhythm Heaven and Tomodachi Life. I doubt there will be many more. Maybe the long rumoured FE4 remake.
>>719636181Other than those and Splat Raiders (which could be a Switch 2 exclusive), are there any other confirmed 2026 releases?>FE4 remakeIt's not real. I believed it myself, but I eventually realized that it came from Sigurd's prominence in Engage. I choose to believe in a brand FE game though.
