in Nintendo Today, so just a few mins. until they upload it in YTlooks like Borderlands but with squids and octopuses
why does the image look like sloppa?
>>737363594because your brain has been poisoned.
>>737363619I thought people have been asking for single player splatoon
>>737363552weird adult proportion MC.
>>737363619no fuck you stop diluting fanbases with same-ish genres
>>737363619What's the issue? There are still the main games for multiplayer.
the Deep Cut being assist attacks look neat>>737363619I got a feeling they meant the main focus is single player, but you can probably have co-op or stuff
>>737363552I wanted the Squid Sisters or Marina (but not Pearl), I don't wanna have a single player adventure with A MALE, a forehead freak and an "OK but not as good as the squid sisters or marina" girl.
I'm just occurred to me that Nintendo Today is basically a modern Smash Dojo but I think I'm just too old to want to check something like that every day
>>737363619No. I want a Splatoon game without tryhards.
>>737363619Nah, this is what I've wanted since the first one.
>Shiver getting that close to (You)I'm gonna spill my spaghetti with squid ink.
My uncle fiancee works for Nintendo. Op is gay and fake. Splatoon raiders will be a extraction shooter with nintendo twist. No pvp just pve.
>>737363619this better be an eric-tier bait.
>>737363772They could make something like Warframe, pure PvE (yeah, yeah, I know Warframe has PvP but everyone ignores it).
>>737363763What announcement will make Nintendo Today crash like Sonic in Brawl?
>>737363763nah you're right, it's essentially just an earlier news release before the social media posts>>737363762pretty sure they'll be there much like usual>>737363798nahhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jaag4cVKOo8
>>737363552How is Nintendo releasing a steady cadence of games every single month? I'd think they'd slow down now that they're developing for Switch 2
Trailer is up
>>737363832There was basically nothing on Switch 1 since the end of 2024 because they shifted to Switch 2 early.
>>737363832>I'd think they'd slow down now that they're developing for Switch 2This is a Switch 2 game.
It better not be a fucking lootershooter or Splatoon is dead.
I love this
>>737363763just download it and get notified
>>737363763Because 99% of the time it's not interesting >Japan-only merch or museum >Pikmin 4 comic>Animal Crossing comic>Pikmin Bloom picture>Kirby fortune>Zelda/Metroid character art>Xenoblade concept art>Games released this day in Japan in past yearsActual new updates is maybe 1/500 posts.
>>737363889>Middle upB-Bazz style???!!!
>>737363883it looks more like Doom? it has levels
>>737363889>fucking oct*gers againMAKE UNKTOPOLIST GREAT AGAIN
>>737363883kys concern trolling faggot
>>737363889is this supposed to be a boy or a girl?
>>737363909if you know your nintendo they have game updates in tuesday to thursday
>>737363909this
>>737363552Haha! I knew we were getting something this morning!
>>737363830>single-player-game focusYeah I'm not spending $80 for this lmao
WHY ISNT THE UNCUT HAIR AN ACTUAL OPTION ARGGGHHHHHH
>>737363552The main Inkling looks like Chel to me
Are the body types ONLY girls?
>>737363920Long after Concord is forgotten, Bazz will live on.
looks like level-based rather than open-worled
Sexo
>>737363971The trailer picks the male character.
>>737363552Fucking finally. Nate said starfox is getting revealed this month so its just FE left sometime in the next two weeks. I'm worried its looking like the august game now tho.
>>737364015I feel like the Splatoon devs can't think very far outside of the box for how to freshen up this formula.
THEY STILL KEEP THEIR HIPSWAYS
>>737364043Star Fox will be revealed on the 28th I guess, exactly a week from now.
>>737364015it's open map probably, you have the base hub and you go on mission with that crane launch in the trailer
>>737364075Correction is required!!!
WHERE THE FUCK IS FIRE EMBLEM
>>737364074???if anything level-based shooting is rare nowadays. this isn't like the story mode in splatoon
>>737363552>A bloo bloo bloo it had no date on reveal, so that means it’s a 2027 game!I hope the faggot who spammed that stubs his toe
>>737364086Why the fuck are you guys so sure a new StarFox is coming? Just because Fox was in the Galaxy Movie?
DOOMKEKS ARE YOU Ok
>>737364137all the leaks so far are coming true
>not even local multiplayerFUCK
>>737363990>>737363074
>>737364035Don't lie anon, the trailer presents the MC as a genderless enby troon, just like splat 3
>>737364171What leaks?
>>737364000Look at the shoulders, that’s clearly a boy
>>737363994>shitpost once>get deleted>come again>????>profits!
>>737364137Because NateTheHate leaked it alongside summer releases for Rhythm Heaven and Splatoon Raiders, now both confirmed, and said it will be announced on Nintendo Today by the end of the month.
What the fuck is this haircut
>>737364190you literally pick between male and female squid or octo anon
>>737364224Did they say something about Xenoblade?
Shivergods, where you at?
>>737364119You have to understand, since Splatoon 3 never really hit it off with me I've been skeptical as to what my relationship with this series will be going forward. At one point this was probably my favorite current Nintendo series but now I feel uneasy that they're going to evolve things meaningfully or just recontextualize things without giving players new experiences.
>>737364194I know right? How DARE he come into a thread and post an opinion that doesn't match the consensus, he should be permabanned
>>737364263Grabbing that amiibo day one
>>737364229dont even lie that shit is tuff
I thought we are allied with salmonids nowalso WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS SALMONID
>>737364263I don't hate Shiver but I like the Squid Sisters and Marina much more.
nice but I'm not feeling a "wow effect" that a the switch2 capabilities should offer. this definitely runs on the switch1 engine and mostly use the switch2 to keep the framerate up when the screen is clogged.
>>737364269Lies are not opinions
>new nintendo game>no or minimal vaanother certified gameplay is king banger
By the way it's $50 digitally, so $60 fot physical. And people were fear mongering about all new releases being $70 for digital and $80 physical lol
>>737364192Star Fox, Rhythm Heaven, Splatoon Raiders, Fire Emblem Fortune's Weave and a new Nintendo Switch Sports in the summer.Zelda Ocarina of Time remake holiday 2026.Pikmin 4 Switch 2 Edition sometime in 2026.The Duskbloods in October.A few other things.
>>737364303Just because a SINGLE Salmonoid became your mascot does it mean its WHOLE RACE is now friendly.
>>737364269you aren't even hiding it, you just fabricated some bitching to shit yourself all over the board.again.
>>737363994>Yeah I'm not spending $8-ACK
>prominently feature big man in some mecha pod (really cool aesthetic)>his amiibo is just him standing like his previous amiiboand here I was ready to buy a cool mecha figure, would've worked well with their bigger amiibos
>>737364086Did nate say it would be revealed on the 28th?
>The game also supports the ability to join with up to three other players online or via local wireless.Co-op confirmed, just not split screen.
>>737364409The other two can be in that mecha too, it's not something unique to Big Man.
>>737363994LOOOOL
>>737363552another random trailer drop.still. finally something new
>>737364289he got that shit on
>>737364258the only other things he mentioned was that FE was the other summer game meaning its gonna get a nintendo today update soon, a direct will be in june for a bunch of other stuff, the 3D mario game is next year, and an ocarina of time remake will come out this year. Whatever monolithsoft has been working on might show up in June but idk.
>The new salmonids are the horny version of salmonsThere better be rape art of Shiver, Frye, and the Mechanic by the end of the day
>>737363619>Deleted his own post after outing himself as a huge retard
>>737364432No, that's my speculation because the 28th to the 30th is the only realistic remaining timeframe if the leak is accurate.
>>737364445>The game also supports the ability to join with up to three other players online or via local wireless.So it really is Splatoon "Warframe".
The last looter shooter Nintendo made was absolute kino so I will boughted
>>737364449I know, but in the trailer they showed more of him insidebut my point is I want a mecha pod amiibo
>>737364364>muh summerthat's not really a leak, it's the only spot of the calendar that can get games after yoshi.
>>737364445salmon runners WON
>>737364384I hope Fire Emblem is $49.99 as well.
>>737364319I'm fine getting games like that, some of y'all gotta remember how outdated the tech for the Switch 1 was on release. And in a fast-paced shooter like Splatoon, even in PvE levels, you can't afford frame drops or instability.
>>737364193I dunno, all I can say is the prompt said "How do you wanna look and sound" but the video just picks the default selection without actually providing a soundbyte. Inkling boys say "nngyes" so I would assume that was what I was supposed to hear if I had a voice sample.Plus this series is known for assuming the player character by default is an Inkling girl (in fact that's been our only exposure to this game at all is this Inkling girl).
So what, its a singleplayer campaign kinda game?
>>737363552Big man think he slick....HE dabbing !
>>737363619>>737363994>game has CO-OP>game also costs fifty bucks (sixty physical)LOLLMAO
>>737363995Fucking sexo
>>737364229>RCA cable tentacle tiesI...what?
>>737363971girl, you can tell by the eyes
>>737364180That is correct Anon, I didn't know, 30 minutes ago, if anything was going to be announced today, because not every Tuesday has an announcement.But now we know.Everything is fine.
>>737364629the theme is ocean junk, the "buns" option looked like some plastic bottles
>>737363995what the fuck was nintendo thinking? this is the best haircut theyve ever had in splatoon
>>737364384This video aged poorly lmao
>>737363995cute, shame it's not an option
>>737363971Octoling girls have those little points in the corners of their eyes.
>>737364597Red toes in my mouth
https://youtu.be/Jaag4cVKOo8
>>737363552While this is cool, if seems Nintendo is now just gonna drop big game news on their app at random instead of making a new direct.
>>737364691the fact that nintendo had to clarify that they are making digital games cheaper and you still have people do mental gymnastics is hilarious
Still getting Rhythm Heaven instead
Where is the co-op info?
>>737364721and that's a good thing, because games compete for attention there
>>737364384Does this mean Mario Tennis megaflopped at $70?
>>737364531Shiver sexo
>>737363647>>737363707>>737363737>>737363745>>737363772Why the deleted post(s)?
>>737363552What is this mental illness called?>NOOOO YOU CANNOT RELEASE NEW GAMES, THAT'S NOT WHAT CONSOLES ARE FOR!!!! HOW DARE YOU!!!!
>>737364742I'll be getting both
>>737364794he deleted this just to add "80 dollars"either way he ended up being wrong on both counts LMAO
>>737364808the game looks like it could 100% run on the switch 1 but I guess certain people need to justify buying a second toy tablet
>>737364721iirc this is what the new CEO has been aiming for ever since he took over. Can't remember his reason why, but the dude said that he fucking hates Nintendo Directs and was looking to establish some kind of alternative for their announcements.
>>737364341I wouldn’t exactly call Snoys “people”.
>>737364753Looks like its part of press releases, the site isn't up but they say it has co-op.https://www.gematsu.com/2026/04/splatoon-raiders-launches-july-23
>>737364753In the official website
>>737364534I'm 99% sure it'll be full price, but I'd love a miracle here.
>>737364721Good. Total Youtuber death.
>>737364847people said the same thing about pokopia to which I laugh at their fucking faces
Useless fact: for some reason the English trailer has a message pointing out that the game is single player focused while the Japanese one doesn't, I find that odd.
>>737364742>instead$40 + $60 = yay for me (ignore tax)
>>737364847You are really overestimating what the OG switch can do.
>>737364808that shit is why 8 years is too long for a gen, those 258 year old ""people"" are still on their first console and are now having panic attacks at the idea of changing it.
>>737364789Don't worry, Mario Tennis would have flopped even at $40.
I love the freakout about pragmata but splatroon is literally infested with groomers and nobody bats an eye coz tendies are all banned from being near schools anyway
>>737364904dude pokopia looks like ass
>>737364907because it has co-opand most likely the ones who complain about "missing single player" are westerners
I don't care how bad she ends up being, Frye and I are looting everything
I'm not as good at differentiating Inklings visually. I often have to go by how they do up their tentacles but since I think the styles are now genderless it makes it much less evident.
>>737364847At 20FPS maybe.
>>737364031I fucking love Shiver
>>737364863he sounds retarded
>>737364863I feel like nintendo has been unenthusiastic about directs for some time now
>>737364534Raiders is cheaper probably because it’s a spin off. I expect new mainline games like Splatoon 4 and Fire Emblem to be $60 digitally, $70 physically. Mario, Zelda, Smash will be $10 more expensive
>>737364973>still missing the pointit's not about the looks anon (which I disagree, it looks good), it's about what chugs in it. I assure you Pokopia on switch 1 will run very poorly.
>>737364731I love that Nintendo put out a statement that prices on physical games weren't going up and people decided that they were lying lol. Just total derangement
>>737363829Peach sex sim
>>737364721For minute there nintendo was just announcing games on twitter
>>737364968>Immediately starts meltingToday will be a long day
>>737364847The splatoon3 dlc already has drops moments and it's textureless cubes closed environments.This is garanteed 60fps (or more) which is great.
The fags proclaiming the lower than usual price as a victory are the same people who've been defending Nintendo initially jumping to the $70 standard at the start of the generation as a good thing just because Microsoft and Sony did it first, by the way.
>>737364863>>737365010>>737365016this is how misinformation starts>>737365041you can see this in this thread too>>737363829>Steve in Ultimateftfy, Sonic didn't crash anything twitter didn't exist in the fucking 00's
>>737365035I read that the actual reason why Pokopia is download only is because "it has to remember every single change the player does to the environment" and this is not possible on a card.
>>737364531I WILL hot glue those
>>737363995>tfw no smelly tomoko squidfriend.
>>737363763Not really comparable since one was centered around one game and the other can be anything it wants to be.Remember Miiverse? Good Times
>>737365089ok
>>737364808>>737364847>we’re back to “exclusives bad!” because Snoys don’t have anyIt’s all so tiresome
>>737364031>the fuck is this slut saying
he's at it again>there are people who are defending price hikes here you know!it's hilarious after nintendo outright stated there would be variance in pricing from the get go
>>737365016New president hates them for some reason even though the big announcements in those directs help put more eyes on all the titles below them like a trickle down effect.
>>737365109>"it has to remember every single change the player does to the environment" and this is not possible on a card.lmaotendies have no idea how games work
I think the eyebrows are the major identifier (boys have longer eyebrows).
IT LOOKS SO GOOD I AM SO HAPPY
>>737363552I hope there is a story or something with a "final boss"
Are we just going to get random drops like this and no directs anymore?
>instead of talking about the game its console war shit and direct shitWhat happened to shame?
>>737365089>still assmad Nintendo is doing pro-consumer things while Sony hiked the prices for the 10th time
>>737364904Pokopia literally was a switch 1 game until nintendo forced them to make it switch 2, it’s in the teraleak
>>737365109anon, speedwhile cart speed is improved over switch 1 it's still slower than reading from internal memory or sd expressagain, go play pokopia and play switch's dragon quest builders 2. it's fucking night and day>>737365160and here we have a retard
>>737364445I'm interested to see what the co-op will be, I hope it's more of a dedicated mode like salmon run rather than just for the campaign missions
Wait, so only Deep Cut get access to the Mecha? It's just an improved Pearl-Bot?
>>737364863>>737365016Directs are a lot of video editing and coordination with different companies. I can imagine why that dude have some disdain for it, but I hope he gets the stick out his ass. They are just good PR no matter how much effort is spent on them.>>737365109That's bullshit but I kinda believe it. Trying to keep a consistent framerate while streaming data off a cartridge can be a challenge when we are talking about this kind of game. See the old Vita ports of Dragon Quest Builders.
>>737365176I'd destroy his asshole
>>737364504So annoying they won't just put this on Switch 2 and it's forever locked to 3DS.
>>737365169I hope the fishing and surfing are proper minigames and not just story one-time moments
>>737364031>mfw an octonig gets near me
>>737365169Maybe controversial but I think she is way more cute and sexy than Marina.
>>737363829>What announcement will make Nintendo Today crash like Sonic in Brawl?Uhhh Mother 3 being localized??? I can’t think of anything else that would come close to this.
>>737364789100%. It opened worse than every other game in the series except for the fucking Virtual Boy game. And Aces had the same Switch 1 installbase when it released as Fever did for the Switch 2 (give or take a couple hundred thousand consoles), so there isn't a significant installbase discrepancy that can be blamed.
>>737365217>even bringing up teraleak, the one that outright states they moved to new production because it's betterfyi a lot of the early games started as switch 1 games
>>737365217What? No, it started on the switch 1 and chugged so they moved to switch 2 immediately
>>737365217Nintendo can’t force Game Freak to do anything
>>737365167>you can't even really tell anymore which is male or female except for that specific body partSad
post more fryeNOW
Have they confirmed mouse controls yet?>>737365189Maybe they want to drop these for games already announced, and keep the reveals to Directs, but then again, Raiders was announced in one of these, so who knows?
Is it an extraction shooter or a rogue lite?
>>737365207jannies allowed a circlejerk of console warring trannies to gather in the famitsu generals, and they leak into the rest of the board to ruin any discussion involving nintendo
>>737365189We are still getting a Direct.I bet these Today! announcements are to make room for brand new announcements in the next Direct.
>>737365281Good thing it wasn't them who were the main devs
>>737365235anon why are you believing people making up shit in this thread
>>737365176Gonna need some sauce on that
>>737365239The best time to have done it was during the Switch era but now with the Switch 2, it basically has to be a full-on graphical remake which will cost a lot more than a simple up-rez remaster.
>>737365293left is female and right is male. you might be autistic anon
>>737365301>Have they confirmed mouse controls yet?no, but I would be surprised if it wasn't an option
>>737365293You can by their voice samples definitively but they didn't give any vocal clips in that trailer.
>>737364384>rhythm heaven is 40 bucks>splatoon raiders is 50Eating pretty fucking good in July ngl.
>>737365232looks like a designated bot to help you in battle so far. might be used as a right I think considering that handle on the top. I'll be disappointed if we don't have any sea exploration levels with it.
>>737365176God, pedo-pandering foids are so creepy
>ALL THE SALMONIDS ARE PAST THEMED>TEAM PAST'S ONLY CONTRIBUTION IS TO THE DEEP CUT FOCUSED GAMELMAOOOOO
>>737365219I am not debating the reason why Pokopia is switch 2 only but why is GKC only.
>>737365207>>737365307>it's the famitsufags! totally not the shitposters being told off!>>737365339>>737365239also sakurai actually brought that up, essentially the main problem is getting the team back because unlike today, KIU was made by different people from different studios
>>737365009No arguments but Frye is uggo.
>>737365350the concepts of "male" and "female" don't exist in nintendo games you chud
>>737365375futureGODS WON
>>737365375>>ALL THE SALMONIDS ARE PAST THEMED?>>TEAM PAST'S ONLY CONTRIBUTION IS TO THE DEEP CUT FOCUSED GAMEbait or mental retardation?
>>737364534not a shot in hell that its going to be $50 digital. Raiders feels smaller in scale so its being priced accordingly, fire emblem is their first big RPG of the console. If yoshi is anything to go on, it could be $60 digitally which is sadly still a good deal in today's economy.
"Splatoon Raiders is a single-player-focused action shooter for Splatoon veterans and newcomers alike. You take on the role of a mechanic embarking on a high-stakes adventure across the mysterious Spirhalite Islands.Customize your appearance and your loadout and get ready to raid the islands for treasure. Using a variety of mechanical gadgets and ink-splattering weapons you'll splat scores of enemies called Salmonids, conquer raids and salvage loot on your journey through the one-of-a-kind Splatoon universe.But you won't be alone – you'll be working with Frye, Shiver and Big Man, a trio of swashbuckling musicians who make up the splat-tacular band Deep Cut. In fact, one member of the band will raid alongside you in a powerful bot!The game also supports the ability to join with up to three other players online or via local wireless."
>>737365350How can you really tell without the eyebrows?
>>737365380...I literally said why, cart read is slower than ssd/micro sd express
>>737365217I'm tired of being surrounded with imbeciles that don't understand the whole project pipeline thing. No wonder you are a jobless piece of shit irl.
>>737365232>>737365371Yeah, probably it gets different abilities depending on who’s riding it
So how will the doomerfags spin 50/60 dollar price as a bad thing?
>Game has co-op>50-60€Nice, gonna play with Mouse control. It would be cool if they release a Mouse + Keyboard accessories
>>737363909You forgot >Smell Wario’s ass
>>737365375saving this post to humiliate you when team past's victory influences S4
Wait, isn't RH releasing in July too? Holy shit, chill out Nintendo
>>737365215>>737365453Nobody's assmad though? People are laughing because Nintendo's figuring out that they don't quite have the pull to get away with $70+ across the board like they clearly hoped they could during the early press cycle.
>>737365446Pokopia definitely doesn't require fast read speeds lol. Cyberpunk is on cart
>>737364808this is what happens when people release their game crossgen for literal fucking years, like with the ps4/ps5
>>737365293whatyou literally can easily tell the girl is on the left on both ink and octo
>>737365445Jesus Christ man
>>737363785>>737363772>>737363745>>737363737>>737363707>>737363647Please don't give the snoys attention anons.Resist the fish bait, these are the last good Nintendo IP threads on the board.
>>737365489what the fuck do they have for the rest of the year if they need to double up on release month?!
>>737365504Lol, not really
>>737365495>Nintendo states since day one they are doing variable price>Hurr durr games being cheaper means the expensive ones flopped!!!
>>737364808Switch 1 turns 10 next year btw
>>737365498last i checked cyberpunk doesn't kept stuff like billions of objects that are moved around(also cyberpunk is on the mid side on performance)
Is there a reason why the salmonids are in their spawning phase?
>>737365489One’s a switch 1 game and the other’s a switch 2 game. They aren’t stepping on each others toes since they’re for different consoles
>>737365489RH is basically the June game since it comes out on the 2nd.
>>737365531you might be retarded anon
>>737365092>ftfy, Sonic didn't crash anything twitter didn't exist in the fucking 00'she's talking about japan time you fucking idiot zoomer. Smash dojo crashed when sonic was revealed.https://www.smashbros.com/wii/en_us/characters/sonic.html
>>737365540>>Hurr durr games being cheaper means the expensive ones flopped!!!Yes actually.
>>737365531Anon, do you need real life people to have labels on their chest saying their gender? Are you that autistic?
>>737365248she is way cuter
>>737365158It’s funny how directs were started in order to cheap out on making a big E3 showing.And now apparently they need to cheap out even further and not make videos at all.Soon we’ll get all our Nintendo announcements scribbled on a piece of paper and thrown out the window somewhere.
>>737365504Is this an edit? The two inklings and octolinks look EXACTLY the same.
>>737363971Isn't the black top under her clothes only on female characters.Also I'd prefer the roughed up hair before it's cut back.
>>737365574Show me the difference
>>737365553especially when the best sellers are the full priced ones still lmao>>737365582yeah, I'm sure pokopia and mario kart are flops
>>737365453low price are bad for investment speculation. 80 was too low for the neo geo re-release.
>>737365445Voices. It even says your character's body and voice are tied together so they're definitely still gendered (Inkling girls say "woomy" and Octoling girls say "veemo" with a high pitch and Inkling boys say "nngyes" and Octoling boys say "oomy" with a lower pitch) but you need to hear them to be 100% sure.
>>737365609you cant be serious>>737365629brows, eye marks (as it has been since the FIRST GAME)
>>737365326im more retarded before I have my morning coffee.
game still has basically a switch 2 price in japanese physical, it's just the west that are getting it a lot cheaper.
I was kind of hoping for it to be more platformy
>$60 physicalYou can really tell they've got those smaller cart sizes now.
>>737365453Get ready for the phrase "shrinkflation" to be used in YouTube thumbnails.
>>737365557The Salmonid Queen is building forces for revenge against Inkling-kind in Splatoon 4.
>>737365609The Inkling eyebrows are different and the octoling eye outlines are different.
>>737365498cyberpunk is a fucking fixed, physicless movie game the fuck are you smoking now? do you even play video games? the way to bark names makes me believe you only read tweets about them
So either the Star Fox leak is wrong or the game gets announced next week.Nate said it's coming this June.
>>737365580the only people talking about smash dojo being ddos'd were sonicfags a.k.a. unreliable as shit, also don't fucking zoomershit me I lived and breath smash dojo with YOU MUST RECOVER and never seen the website crashed
>>737365219Switch 2 carts are still several times faster than Switch 1 carts. It’s not the question of speed, at least in a light game like Pokopia
>another open world slopdropped
>>737365695>>737365669But both have the same body type.
>>737365684Makes sense since Japan is obsessed with Splatoon, they'll pay anything for it.
>>737365489>RH>raiders>raiders amiibo>digimonmy wallet will be raped july
If they wanted to completely de-gender Splatoon they just need to decouple the facial features and voices. Ninjala already does this.I always play as a girl.
>>737365714have they announced shit on golden week before
>>737365695Oh, we are taking of who is inkling and who is octolink? I thought we were talkIng about which is male and which female because, seriously, both forms of inkling and octolink LOOK EXACTLY THE SAME.
>>737365146>I'm gonna fuck your brains out tonight. I'm soaking wet just thinking about it. Fuck, you turned me into a needy slut.
>>737365714he's been right on rhythm heaven and splatoon release dates so far
>>737363832kill yourself shitric.You lost.
>>737365762son
>>737365597I think Nintendo wants to do them less because they're another vulnerable point for leaks.
>>737365540especially when the best sellers are the full priced ones still lmao
>>737365794Daughter
>>737365714just my headcanon, but I bet it's partly fake. Probably the game is real, but the date is wrong, and based on the date leaked they can guess who the leaker was
>>737365758Do you actually own a Switch 2?
>>737365714>star fox has been used to sus out "leakers" for a while now>star fox grand prix>now a star fox switch 2 gamenintendo you sly fox
>>737365749just because you did not live the time of the reveal does not mean the outage didn't happen, just google it nigger there's plenty evidence that it happened
>>737365714Next week would make sense because the Galaxy movie with Fox in it premieres in Japan in two days.
>>737363552So is just normal Splatoon but with AI companions?
>>737365775ESL or retard call it
>>737365795just for the leakers to get them anyway. at some point they need to just live with it.
>>737363763This makes me realise nintendo today should be a website too, I'd probably check it way more
>>737365758someone want to tell him?
So you get to hang out with the pirate super stars while being their mechanic/engineer?
>>737365753which I agree, faster than switch 1, but still slower than internal/sdthere's a video comparing loading and read speeds for instance
>>737365758If you mean open world like the way Odyssey is open world, then yes it’s open world.
>>737363990kill yourself you vermin.
>>737365849I agree, I'm just trying to see things from their perspective.
>>737363995>>737364662>>737364692Bet you is going to be paid DLC.
>>737365714leakers got back to the old>ok here are my leacks>ok actually nintendo lied to me to make me look bad>ok actually one of my guess happened so everything I ever said is real again now
>>737365773No, the closest one was TotK like 2 days beforeBut japs take that week very seriously so if they don’t do it by 28th I doubt we will have it at all
Double confirmation of co-op from the twitter.https://x.com/SplatoonNA/status/2046583481434583309?s=20
>>737365758ahh yes my favorite aspect of open world, level select
>>737365829>>star fox has been used to sus out "leakers" for a while now>>star fox grand prixstar fox grand prix wasn't bait from nintendo it was literally just some youtuber's artist sharing around a logo they made for a video
>>737364031The Mechanic just knows Shiver is up to something.
>>737365339On the other hand, Switch 2 has mouse controls which would work extremely well with KIU.
>>737365504Both forms for each Inkling and Octolink look exactly the same, why they put "teo options" then?
>>737365898why would i play this shit solo again?
It looks like the dogshit DLC from 3 with salmonids
>>737365891i will pay 60 for it idc
>>737365898Then what was the point of saying single player focused? They could have just said “campaign focused” or something
>>737365775>male character options aren't selected>never see a male inking throughout the entire trailer, only the option to select one at the start >retards pretend the models are the same
>>737365872>there are retards that think mario odyssey is open worldgrim
>>737365834which I did, the only result talking about it was sonicfag reddit
>>737365891I doubt it
>$60 physically >$50 digitally Wonder how grifters are going to try and make this seem like an bad thing.
WebM for Lazys fucking died? Fuck.
>>737364015I told you squaggots it'd be closer to DK Bananza/Mario Odyssey. With large open-ish levels. But it'll still be completely level based. Not fully open world like BotW is.>>737364043Please stop putting faith in dogshit ''''leakers''''.How many leakers were telling you that Raiders info was coming?
>>737365189they are only doing these drops for games that have already been announced retard
>>737365986go back
>>737365898>Touch link>Twitter app just loads the most recent page I was in instead of the linkFor fuck sake, this shit has been going since yesterday, when they will fix it?
>>737365849>>737365795I personally think separate announcement are good for the likes of this and RH (and even tomodachi life) because they get sandwiched/sandbagged by hypefags
>>737364863The whole reason directs started was Iwata getting tired of the mainstream gaming press getting in the way of delivering news (this is literally why they are called directs because it was to give news directly).Two console generations and the increased use of social media the original problem Iwata was complaining about has recreated itself in the form of slop YouTube reaction channels.
>>737365132>Just because you try hard doesn't mean you'll make it.To this day this is still one of the blackest pills I've seen.
>>737364534Fire Emblem is probably going to be $60 Digital, $70 physical and a $99 special edition.
>>737365504We reached a point where people are literally fine with this body type A and B nonsenseMakes me sick
>>737365891what a weird, nonsensical post. don't try to feed nonsense to bots there, there are none;
>single player focusedIs this the most explosively popular game in /v/ history besides Pragmata? We’re ALL hyped and we’re ALL buying, and if you’re not, you’re that one dude we all hate.
Why was this announced on a random tuesday?Why didn't they have this, rhythm heaven groove, and that yoshi game in a direct this month? idgi
>>737365970I mean it technically is single player focusedbut the point of the matter is that it's probably to entice westerners. notice how the japanese version of the trailer don't have it
>>737366009it died when they changed its name
>>737366025large levels mog the fuck out of open world and anyone who thinks otherwise isnt a human being
>>737365829No they don't. That's just an excuse "leakers" came up with to have their cake and eat it too (cover their asses for being wrong but not conceding their perceived legitimacy). Grand Prix was based on a grainy cellphone pic of an easily faked logo printed on fucking standard printer paper.
>>737365995>It's going to be a tiny budget game, should be $20 at most.
>>737364384>very first single-player spinoff of one of nintendo’s biggest series is only $50 (digitally)>meanwhile fucking mario tennis is asking for $70Not complaining, but why the hell is the latter the more expensive one?
>>737363552Deep Cut is ugly.
>>737366094It was totally real, Nintendo canceled it to spite us leakers!!
>>737366030>go back to search resultsbakafucking sonicfag making everything about them as usual>>737365995you don't need to look far, you already have a "they are selling them low because the full price flopped" narrative

>>737365974Anon, look >>737365504 pic, there are two inklings and two octolinks to choose but the two inklings look exactly the same and two octolinks also look exactly the same, WHAT IS THE FUCKING DIFFERENCE?!
>>737365970they know that most westerners are complete retards and will assume this is splatoon 4 unless they make it as clear as possible that it's a spinoff adventure
>>737366117Mario Tax
>>737364303He's cute as fuck. just gassy.737364319shitty concern troll. kill yourself.
>>737365762I think that's always been true to some degree. I think the most distinguishing feature in the original game is the boys wore longer shorts (you can only customize headwear, shirts, and shoes so pants are fixed) but both boys and girls, Octos and Inkies wear the same thing in this game so that won't apply here.
>>737364109Dead Franchise, Nintendo has forgotten about Fire Emblem
>>737366117Also, why is the baby Yoshi platformer more? lol
>>737366117Smaller Carr Sizes and the new policy, probably. That said Air Riders would've benefitted greatly from this
>>737363552Deep Cut is erotic
>>737366025>How many leakers were telling you that Raiders info was coming?actually this is the only time nate mentioned raiders>>737366083people 100% will not give a shit about these games because directs have become "muh hype" shittery
>>737366117I'm guessing 2nd party developers get to set the price.
>>737365770>digimonWhat's happening with Digimon?
>>737366165
>>737366083>Why didn't they have this, rhythm heaven groove, and that yoshi game in a direct this month? idgiwhy? so you can call the direct shit and wonder why they even had one, seriously if nintendo did a direct and they brought was those 3 everyone would decry them
>>737366181It’s not. Their prices are the same
>>737366117I feel like part of it is that smaller Switch 2 carts weren't available until very recently, you can tell from a bunch of third party games that are getting real physical releases at decent prices and not game key cards. Nintendo priced all their launch period games with physical releases according to their production costs even though some could've been far cheaper digitally I imagine.
Co-op and singleplayer has the same rewards, so you're not missing out by playing one or the other>>737366142We told you, eyebrows and eyes.If they selected an alternative then the whole model would change, like every fucking splatoon game.
>>737366167Plus by 2 they allowed you to customize your character's pants anyway.
>>737366269I love Rhythm Heaven and Splatoon thobeit.
>>737366229time strangers on switch2
>>737363552>glorified salmon run
>>737366091I liked webmforretards better, but wasn't lazys the same dev? But now the program seems to be mac exclusive. Is there some other fork that's better or will continue to be supported?
>>737366229digimon story time stranger's switch/2 ports release
At least the next trailer they release is guaranteed to be Fire Emblem now that they've gone through everything else that hasn't gotten a release date yet.
>>737366305Not everyone is like you and me, unfortunately.
I watched the trailer and felt... nothing. Looks aggressively mid and unimaginative. And yes, Splatoon itself is imaginative, but this doesn't look like it sets itself part in any way, just looks like a worse Octo Expansion cause it's open and therefore lacks good level design and Nintendo open worlds are just "collect 900 of this thing hidden in the same kinds of places in every area"
>>737366035>Two console generations and the increased use of social media the original problem Iwata was complaining about has recreated itself in the form of slop YouTube reaction channels.Yeah I can imagine the reaction slop channels are probably hurting the pre-release perception smaller games revealed in directs. Because something like Pokopia which is flying off the shelves had those channels pretend like it was a boring or unimportant game or worth boycotting over the GKC.
>>737366293Ohhh, I am stupid, I finally saw the different eyebrows.
>>737366325lmaoit's star fox next time dumb bitch
>>737363552this looks like the kinda game that is padded with grind instead of interesting content

disregard anyone claiming the game is "open world" because it's clear they didn't watch the trailer
>>737366212>people 100% will not give a shit about these games because directs have become "muh hype" shitteryare you joking?people would absolutely be talking about splatoon raiders if it showed up in a direct. We've been waiting 18 months for them to show it off.>>737366269if the 2026 Starfox game rumor is true it would honestly have been a solid direct, I mean you'd have>rhythm heaven>splatoon raiders>fire emblem>brand new starfox>yoshi>[obligatory third party sizzle reel]>end on a tease of some big 2027 releaseThat would be a solid spring direct if you ask me.
>>737366212>people 100% will not give a shit about these games because directs have become "muh hype" shitteryHaving games more people actually want released/announced helps those smaller games, you ungrateful resentful cunt. Do you really think the likes of FE/Metroid/Xenoblade would've had record-breaking series sales on the Switch without having games like mainline Mario and Zelda first to bring in a ton of people right off the bat?
>>737364531cumming on frye's feet
>>737363594All squids are girls
>>737366305same, but for most people directs have been so mythologised that anything less than a mainline zelda, mario, smash or mario kart announcement is seen as a disappointment
>>737364341You are aware that’s still way too expensive for what this game is, right?
>>737363552I have questionsIs this gonna be an open world/open air game?Is there gonna be a plot or story?Will there be a "final boss"?Is there gonna be platforming?
>>737366325>At least the next trailer they release is guaranteed to be Fire EmblemENTER
>>737366396No, I have a wife, haha.
>>737366395I will. Her amiibo as well... again...
>>737366395I’m buying Shiver’s game ;)
>>737365891No, but I bet they'll make it an unlockable after you beat the game, which would be a shame
>>737366424you're confusing people who actually play games with people who only consume hype and "aura" and reaction vidsback then sure, but in this day and age? nah
>>737366471that's her wife's game.
>>737363552>Borderlands>without Randy PitchfordI'M IN.
how is this not a dlc?even the visuals scream switch1.
Never played a Splatoon game before, think this'll be a good first entry?
>>737363552I will now buy a Switch 2
>>737366273Yoshi is $60 digital/$70 physical.
>>737366395I will and also get her amiibo as well.
>>737366069You sound like that one guy who kept calling Xenoblade 3 "Our most hated game of 2022"
>>737365914>Open WorldDid Monolithsoft made this game?
>>737366428have you literally seen how people reacted when tomodachi life ltd and rhythm heaven groove were revealed? yeah sure the fans of those loved it (as do I), but you got hypefags bemoaning their existencethese people don't even play games, they're the ball and gun gamers of nintendo
>>737366441just watch the fucking trailer that's all we have
>>737366441>Is this gonna be an open world/open air game?No, the trailer shows it’s course/level based >Is there gonna be a plot or story?Probably something simple like escape from the island>Will there be a "final boss"?Most likely>Is there gonna be platforming?Doesn’t look like from the trailers but who knows
>>737363830eh. Looks like something that should probably be a side mode in a regular Splatoon game.Was hoping for more of an RPG/adventure type of deal. Maybe if it has a surprisingly in-depth plot it will end up as something special.
>>737364008NEVER EVER forget!
>>737366395>transparency is gone>no subsurface scattering, evenso this is the power of the switch 2...
>>737366516if you prefer pve probably?
>>737366482it would go down better than the last 3 directs they've done. Objectively speaking, a spring 2026 direct would have been decent.
>>737364384>49,99seems like the game is just gonna be glorified dlc. they just chose to make it standalone instead of putting it in Splatoon 3
>>737365758>muh open world badkys faggot
>>737365152Please for the love of Cod STOP ENGAGING!We do NOT need those 3 niggers in these threads.Just fucking ignore them!
>>737366441go watch anon https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jaag4cVKOo8at the very least, it looks more involved than side order
>>737366554it's not even her usual shawl, doomkek
>>737366516Yeah, you’ll get to see if you like the gameplay and mechanics before going to a main entry which are multiplayer focused
Fuuck am I REALLY gonna have to buy a switch 2...
>>737366543>but you got hypefags bemoaning their existenceWhere?If your answer is "here" then you're a fucking idiot.
>>737366510it's closer to warframe
>>737366335Baldcpedo, please shut up
>>737366528Yoshi is a premium Nintendo title.Splatoon is for little casual babbys.
>>737366516Why not just play one of the ones that's out? That way you get the multiplayer too (which is the meat of Splatoon).
>>737366441>Is this gonna be an open world/open air game?looks more open zone, dropped in separated areas where you complete objectives with whichever order you want>Is there gonna be a plot or story?>Will there be a "final boss"?I would be surprised if there wasn't, splatoondevs are massive lorefags>Is there gonna be platforming?yet to be seen, seems to be leaning more so into the side order angle by focusing mainly on combat challenges with the addition of ground based exploration
>>737366558the last switch 1 direct was bemoaned by fags yet it has games many people anticipated (and one already tracking to be a major seller) though>>737366540>Open World>has level select
better be 4k60fps on docked and 720p/140hz on handheld
>>737366543You're making people up in your head and getting mad at them again. Stop that.
what did frye say
>>737366752>"i have fans you know"
>>737366736What was the refresh rate on the integrated screen? I thought it was only 120.
>>737366640>>737366751you know where I mean
>>737366752she farted
>>737366559It seems like a more focused (as in not random) Side Order, which is fine with me. I had a ton of fun with SO and was disappointed when I unlocked everything and had no reason to replay. Kinda killed the roguelike aspect of it. They should've at least had sea snails or SOMETHING as a repeat endgame grindable reward.
>>737366409Bananza has level "select" and is still "open," and a "collect 900 of the same thing" gameplay but point taken
No marina no buy
>>737366778oh i see, it's because shiver killed them all since she's a psycho who can't handle frye being near anyone but her
>>737366784it's 120 but the response time is so bad it might as well be 30
>>737364534This prediction price chart will probably age like cow juice too.
>>737366636What the fuck did Nintendo mean by this holy SHIT
>>737366786/v/ shits on all vidya announcements
>>737366752the game
Game looks like a mix of Vampire Survivors + Borderlands + Side Order. WeirdStill buying a Nintendo Switch and the game for Shiver
General directs really are dead, huh?
>>737366441>open zone>yes>duh>looks more combat focused
>>737366861why people ignore warframe
>>737365795That's just silly on their end then. Having less Directs means that they'd just be leaving more info on the table at a time to be leaked. 3 a year was a happy medium and the only time they've bucked that before was when a console was starting to wind down, or during a global pandemic.
>>737366874gooddirectfags are scum and care more about announcements than games
>>737366861She couldn't be wearing less without decimating the age rating.
>>737366824I can still see mainline splatoon being 70 (physically, at least)
>>737366736Why no 120fps docked?
>>737366824>Splatoon Raiders>Fire Emblem : Fortune>Rythm Paradise Groove>upcoming Star Fox game>Duskbloods 2026>Summer Nintendo Direct with even more surprise and hypeSounds promising
I love squid kids and slomming so this game seems perfect.
>>737366752This is the second animation of "Frye peaks with one eye to watch Shiver laugh"
>>737366918>>737366861damn whore, that's not how you fish
>>737366896Because the average person dropped the game when they realized it was timers and grind
>>737366874I keep saying it, the new president wants to phase them out
>>737366861she looks weird from the side, she's definitely meant for front views shot.
>>737366956why does she do that
>>737366912We have exactly 2 games left without release dates and then there's fucking N O T H I N G on the horizon. It's FE and Duskbloods left, that's it.
>>737366961If that was the case, Warframe would have EoS years ago.
>>737366816why would an artist ruin marina by making her human
>>737366961still, it's closer to "levels zone" than borderlands being actual open world
>>737365863Yes.It seems you find new weapons in the field, but can make various tools to help fight, like the spinning scrub brushes, or piercing axe weapon.Hoping to Cod that the Stamper is easy to find.
>>737366918I feel like this plastic amulet and that pareo fabric should be a bit more transparent.
>"Directs are just for hypefags who don't play games" say the bitter team-sports assholes who care more about what other anonymous shitstirrers on an Elbonian mudbuilding forum have to say about the games they're looking forward to than the actual games themselves
>>737366929Mainline Splatoon gets free updates for years and a cheap DLC that is mostly unconnected to the online aspect besides cosmetic rewards so honestly that'd be fine anyway
>>737366964yeah she should take my shots head on
>>737364445FUCK YES, that was my only hope, everything else I was ready for whatever they wanted to do
I still don't get what the gameplay loop is...I think you do salmon run style missions?Not sure what the tropical setting is really about other than an implied crash landing from the other trailer.
>>737366009I've refused to update it for like 9-10 months now as evey time I did it broke the damn thing.Still works fine for me anon.
>>737367037yes anon? directs don't have value if you care for games because they get announced
>>737363552>single player with a greater focus on combat instead of platforminggood
There will probably be platforming in the latter portion of the game.>>737367037Its not like either of them are talking about the game anyway, both are secondary faggots.
>>737367060Kek
>>737367096Salmon Run++, basically.
>>737367096this is what im wondering too i cant quite tell
>>737367041yeah, it's easy to get hundreds or thousands of hours of it with online so it's an easier sell at 70 than say, mario tennis
>>737366958Really? Because she seems to have you hooked.
>>737366986>>737366918looks like they toned down the shininess of their hair a lot.
>>737363552Did they make her forehead smaller?
>>737366025I agree with the sentiment but nate is almost always correct. And the guy never even mentioned raiders until recently.
me before watching the trailer:>oh shit I might have to finally buy a switch 2me after watching the trailer:>looks mid, guess it can wait
>>737367017Damn, I would have said that most of the work for you to do since you're fixing, building, inventing and tinkering with everything yet they use the mech and shit but they are clearly assisting you with their weird powers so I guess that balances it out.Seriously did they ever explain why they can just summon eels and sharks?
>>737367138I talk about splatoon raiders right now anon, I'm just not a fag to mix replies because that would be stupid
>>737367182he has only ever been 100% correct about the dates and the types of directs.
>>737367129>Directs are bad anyway if you don't care about every single game I pretend to care about for street cred
>>737365071Thursday is going to be a mess on the board.
>>737366874People really just keep ignoring the time the president said they were useful in the past but needed to consider new alternatives to presenting info.
>salmon run with some new abilitiesuhh is that seriously it???
>>737367212that they left most of the work for you to doftfm
>>737367212>Seriously did they ever explain why they can just summon eels and sharks?they hail from ancient clans of eel/shark tamers, so they probably learned from their families, this was in the deep sea scrolls
>>737367251You don't live in Japan BTW
>>737367161They know what they doing
>>737367275It is the first Splatoon Spinoff.So they probably didn't want to stray too far from the winning formula, but give it a few more years and then we'll get Splatoon 3-on-3 Basketball.
>>737364597Well I haven’t posted this in a while to express my love of feet
>>737367203Still waiting until we get a proper splatoon4. If only to get different colors
you vill buy splatoon raiders
>>737367248>retard or illiterateyikeswhat is the difference of each game being announced on their own, giving their own breathing space, vs. being crammed in a direct competing attention especially with certain games having noisy fags for clout>street credfuck you, I actually own "non-3d mario" games
>>737367253I'm not sure these solo drops are generating as much hype as a big show would.
>>737365248Her big forehead ruins her design.
>>737367327you are seething so much right now.
>>737367349
>>737364793indeed.
>>737367327Nor do you but you will shit up the board up regardless, because you just can't fucking help yourself.
>>737366896In what fucking way is it warframe?Only thing warframe that has as remotely similar is the plains of eidolon/venus field. and that's still not really close to raiders
>>737367382I thought Pearl did the big forehead much better
>>737367232problem is that now he said "nintendo lies to me on purpose" which means he can bullshit you all he wants and you will still believe him.
>>737367275it looks more like dlc, the price tag is $50 digital(so $60 physical?) at least. that still might be too expensive depending how long it is but it is nice to see nintendo not releasing everything at $70.
>>737367126>I've refused to update it for like 9-10 months now as evey time I did it broke the damn thing.I've updated it often because I like having the video-download function functional and youtube or whatever frequently makes older versions not work unless you update. Cat & mouse back and forth bullshit. But I suppose I could just maintain yt-dlp separately like I used to in the past. But I preferred having it in webmforretards/lazys.
>>737367275It's pretty clearly Splatoon 3 DLC that got expanded and repackaged as it's own thing.
>>737367378You're seriously going to try to pretend you hated the Switch era all along now.
>>737367382>>737367434homosexual
>>737365940you have no friends
>>737364808what a fucking retarded faggot.
>>737367454Hopefully coop will add some replayability to show off and try different builds
>>737367454>>737367479Is this the new narrative now? >lower priced game? must be repackaged and hiked up dlc
>>737367454>>737367479I think the fan theories of there being a third scrapped DLC as part of the splatoon 3 DLC pass are probably true, and it got turned into Raiders.
it would be cuter if Frye and Shiver were piloting the robot in squid form. We don't see the squid forms enough in this trailer.
>bump limit in just over an hourSplatoon still going strong.
Once again:STOP. REPLYING. TO BAIT. YOU. TWATS.Resist the urge and let the 3 inbred niggers burn themselves out.TYVM.
>>737367557THIS IS A BLUE BOARD!!
>>737367557wii u fags won
>>737367381>27k likes on the tweet for the trailer alreadyidk seems to be generating a considerable amount of hype
>>737366009Anon its time to learn ffmpeg...Or atleast use this:https://github.com/chameleon-ai/webm-for-4chan
>>737367368I'll wait for it to come out and see how the reaction is
>>737367582they will just samefag their post anon. they have been doing this shit for years. What makes you think that they would stop just because people ignore them?
>>737366424>rhythm heaven>splatoon raiders>fire emblem>brand new starfox>yoshi>tendies would have praised this slop as a good direct Maybe it’s a good thing that they stopped doing directs so you cultists no longer need to pretend shit like this is worth getting excited over
I wonder who the villain's going to be?
>>737366325its guaranteed to be starfox since its the one nate specified is getting announced by the end of april. fire emblem is likely the week after
>>737367494>putting words in my mouth
>>737367680>trying to stir consolewar shit in a thread already at bump limitlol
>>737366394lmao duskbloods ain't getting another trailer till the june direct
>>737367683Omega 3
>>737367617The thing with directs is that it gets eyes that might not normally care about a franchise on it. Someone tuning in in case X game drops might suddenly care about Y game after being "forced" to watch the trailer for it. Solo drops just appeal to the already existing fan base that care enough to seek out the trailer for themselvesI think the best recent example of this is the new Fire Emblem, closing out the direct got a lot more eyes on it and will no doubt make people more interested in it than if they had dropped the trailer for it randomly.
>>737367494Par the course for tendies. They need to put down the switch 1 to defend the lackluster switch 2. Like some tendies tried (failed to, but tried) to pretend Mario odyssey sucked and that the fetus tech demo was good.
>>737367683a salmanoid
>>737367683Mother Nature
>>737367541>I think the fan theories of there being a third scrapped DLC as part of the splatoon 3 DLC pass are probably truethis shit doesn't even make sense, for starters retards were saying it was 4 parts, for seconds that never even made sense in the first place because if 4 parts were planned for the pass they would've advertised it/priced it as such, them hiding two extra DLCs for the pass was just a dumb meme only retards believed because of "uhhhh dere's colors"
>>737367535They've been pushing that line since TotK.The concept of a sequel is selective and apparently can't be visually similar to the previous game without someone trying it.>>737367685You have way too much faith in leakers. It's not worth posting over and over as if it's true.
>>737367716You’ll survive.
>>737365995Slow game sales FORCE Nintendo to reduce prices
>>737367683Mr. Grizz again
>>737367804bot post
>>737367816He's in space and/or dead.
>>737367683lil chud's making all the salmonids horny
>>737367805>switch 2 games literally selling worse than switch 1 games despite being the fastest selling console everWhy does this anger you?
>>737367758there's no proof of that, because people only talk about the "hype" parts of a directyou know what gets them talk though? the separate posts they make after each direct
>>737365995Switch 2 is selling like shit AND its a spinoff game.
Splatoon 4 better bring back gender exclusive animations. I'm tired of my afro octoling looking like a faggot in shops and the equip menu.
>>737367758They don't care about that, they just want to play resentful underdog against Mario and Zelda/their fans with no regard for rising tides lifting all boats.
>>737365995If it's 5 hours long, that's still way too much to be fair. Salmon Run + Side Order being $60, the full price of Splat 3, would be a bit retarded.
>>737367849he's gonna crash land and be extra fuzzy
>>737365009i love fucking Shiver.
>>737366636Day 1 + buying Shiver amiibo. And I never buy those amiibo things even when I want them. Shiver is too sexo
>>737367861Fuck off to your dying channel Deen
>>737367716Baldcpedo does it all the time because in his demented head getting the last word in before the thread archives = you won the argument
>>737367795Its funny how originally when expansions and DLC started happening for games I sorta always viewed it as basically ripping ideas that could have been used in a potential sequel and just bolting them onto the side of an already finished game. We've been doing that so long now that I guess expectations have changed.
>>737367965Schizo cope :/
>>737367892I'm glad you admit to the "your lesser games" notion
>>737367805Sounds about right actually.Their followers have shit memories anyway.
>>737367971yeah I figured it was probably him
>>737367865You caring more about 4chan talk than anything else for these games is incredibly revealing and it's really funny that you don't realize it.
>>737367865>there's no proof of thatDo you not understand how advertising works? Do you think commercials,previews before movies, and ads plastered over everything online are just for show? Some of you guys throw all sense of reason out of the window in order to rush to defend Nintendo doing something odd.
>>737367861>>737367804>>737367762You lost and got raped;; Eric.
>>737367623>Anon its time to learn ffmpeg...I used ffmpeg manually for years and years. Even wrote a bunch of drag&drop batch scripts to make it even more smooth to use. So I was kind of resistant to using a separate and stand-alone tool. But webmforretards really was way superior when it came to making frame-perfect webms and it was quicker to operate in general with how much easier it was to make adjustments. Also. ffmpeg can't download videos from video-hosting sites. Meaning I'll need to maintain yt-dlp separately again. >webm-for-4chanBut this isn't by the original dev is it? Well. Now that the original dev appears to have dropped the project this might be the way to go anyway.
>>737368023I'm not even talking about 4chan talk anonrhythm heaven groove got insane amount of views from japan alone in xitter
>>737367991I didn't say they were lesser games. It's just a fact that they sell less.
>>737368090cool, what does that have to do with Splatoon Raiders?
>>737368096>viewsNo one cares
>>737368080I hate you for pretending to be a Nintendo fan calling out Eric, when you are actually a snoy.I hate you.
>>737368090and you care why?
>>737368090>StoresShow me a Walmart or Best Buy with these cut prices, because all I've seen is Costco, and they do these kinds of deals all the time
>>737368079as opposed to singular announcements? those aren't advertising as well?and if you pay attention, these announcements actually occur in the same time>defend nintendofunny you say that, because I'm not the faggot making up shit like "hurr president hate directs"the epicenter of "defending nintendo" it seems is being sensible and not making up shit
>>737368134He's trying to poison the well.
>>737367982Lol ok Deen. Why don't you make a video crying about all the meanie heads making fun of you
>>737368154better than cloutchasing, "aura"-fagging retards>>737368129actually the typical big sellers tend not to be zelda or apparently 3d mario. botw was an anomaly
>>737368173'ric meltie
>>737368134it's just you-know-who having another melty about nintendo.
>>737368194>as opposed to singular announcements? those aren't advertising as well?Considering that the entire advertising industry is based around piggybacking off things that people actually care about, yes. But here is anon, who knows better than a trillion dollar industry that has invested unfathomable amounts of money to study human psychology.
>>737368309looks like a hit!
>>737368309Yeah, it will be a hit
>>737368173Shut the fuck up fatty. All you ever do it reply to consolewar shit and your off topic blogposts
>>737367865>there's no proof of thatXenoblade 2's sales salvaged the series' viability and Metroid Dread saw the best sales yet for its series, putting 2D Metroid back on the map too. And those were revealed alongside bigger IP announcements. Stop crying about people wanting to see Mario and Zelda, being bitchy and jealous isn't a good look.
>Looks like ahit
it's time, /v/
>>737368401Lots of people are sick of the Le epic direct hype and the inevitable Nintendo is dying REEEE cycle.
>>737368309>Looks like a hit
Meltdown status?
>>737367865the only reason fire emblem is popular in the west is because of smash. same with earthbound. why are you so buck broken about people wanting mario and zelda lmao
Is it going to be all salmonids or are the salmonids the teaser enemies that get phased out chapter 2 when the real plot kicks in.
>>737368330but the trillion dollar industry right now is making separate announcements, and judging by the reactions and views it seems to be doing just fineand point of the matter is that it's not like they're stopping directs. what made you think otherwise?>>737368401actually they were announced during E3also funny you mention Metroid Dread because there's a certain other metroid that was also born from E3 Direct and we all know what happened to it>jealous???
>>737368460>lots of foxes think the grapes are sour
>>737368487>the only reason fire emblem is popular in the west is because of smash*fire emblem awakening
>>737368530Well the foxes are a lot quieter without directs.
>>737368498We know as much as you.Personally I hope for all kinds if monstrosities in the uncharted lands
>>737368498I can see some shadowy/sludge form of the Salmonids that are more dangerous. Likely controlled by some greater force.
>>737365176She’s a fine goddess and I absolutely WOULD
>>737368514>actually they were announced during E3literally how does that contradict them being announced next to other games, you goddamn mongoloid
man are we seriously going to have ball and gun defenders now as a sign of contrarianism
>>737368603just setting up the context, also they're on the switch 1 too
>>737368514>but the trillion dollar industry right now is making separate announcementsNintendo isn't the entire trillion dollar industry. There's still ads before movies, commercials, on youtube, on web pages, etc. You come for 1 thing and then get served ads for other things while watching it, that's the crux of the industry. Companies like Amazon will sell you Kindles for cheaper if you agree to sell ads, Nintendo themselves has ads on the side of the Switch 2 unlock screen and Sony and Microsoft take it a step further with dashboard ads.Nintendo is experimenting but that doesn't mean this will be a success for them. Everything Nintendo touches doesn't turn to gold, they can in fact fuck up and make retarded choices just like everyone else. Essentially, Nintendo is currently swimming upstream but it remains to be seen if they're a Salmon.
>>737365089why are you so mad?
man are we seriously going to have people lumping in mainline mario/zelda/smash with ball and gun games now to paradoxically defend nintendo
>>737368265Je ne suis pas Eric. Je ne fréquente pas Eric, pas plus que je ne fréquente son manipulateur, Macacoschizo, ni ses complices, Doug et Bikinischizo. Je ne les fréquenterai jamais.
>>737368194hey anon, why did Fox McCloud show up as a major character in the Super Mario Galaxy Movie first before Star Fox got its own movie
>>737368737>>737368632Nice sametrannying, Eric
>>737368632Man, I really want a Splatoon Sports game.>737368737>port
>>737366047Either that bullshit will age like milk if he gets in Smash 6 or age like wine if he remains an assist trophy.
>>737366117Because it’s Mario anon…Same shit will befall Zelda and Smash
>>737368191They will never do that and you know why. My question is why they decided to crop it.They have also been selling out in almost every Costco naturally.
>>737368727>proceeds to armchair economist on shit they have no idea what they are doingsorry I'd wait for thursday on shit like this>>737368813there's actually interviews about that, but I don't do tinfoil hattery>>737368737>he thinks the ball and gun shit are about game quality and not "playing other games"
>>737368894>if he gets in Smash 6I can't wait to see the day that happens.I know it will.It will be a treat watching all of the Nintendo fans celebrating Waluigi.
>>737368376I'm honestly just waiting for them to get a heart attack with the shit they eat, it's not right.
>>737363552Looks like shit
>>737363552>Barefoot loli game on my birthdayI love being the target audience.
>>737369115You were right the first time
>>737369060>but I don't do tinfoil hattery Nope, just nutlickery
>>737369152again, I'm not the one making fanfics about the president of nintendo hating directs
>>737363552
>>737369115>>737369181Nice sametrannying, Eric
>>737369060>sorry I'd wait for thursday on shit like thisI'm not diving into that psych ward, but the fact that's where you mind instantly went speaks volumes. Thanks for letting me know that you're a mentally ill Famitsu poster though!
>>737369247>mentally ill because you don't rely on fanfic bullshit like president of nintendo hating directs>proceeds to redflag famitsuat least we're clear then
>>737369303You're making up arguments lmao. Stop being so histrionic.
>>737369370>making up argumentsanon we literally have posts above saying that nintendo president hate directsthread is dead anyway
Are Nintendofags seriously throwing the entire goddamn Switch generation under the bus now just to defend the lack of new reveals for the Switch 2
>>737369428>anon we literally have posts above saying that nintendo president hate directsYeah, and they're not mine so why the fuck are you bringing them up to me?
>>737369440No.
>>737368487Fire Emblem became popular in the west because of romance mechanics.
>>737369440Eric, repeating your snoytranny cope won't save you ass.
not being able to steal any real games anymore seems to be hitting hard rn
>>737369440unlike you I actually lived through the switch, I don't have "switch nostalgia"is this the new talking about of derangement?>>737369475because you imply I'm bootlicking nintendo when the only "bootlicking" I made is telling that
>>737369535You are repeating the same phrases over and over again.You are Eric.I hate you.
>>737369563>because you imply I'm bootlicking nintendo when the only "bootlicking" I made is telling thatYou're into so many different arguments, because you're wrong and had multiple people call you out, that you're confusing who you're even replying to. This isn't healthy.
>>737369563>unlike you I actually lived through the switchYou phrase that like it was miserable lmao you really are trying to say it was secretly shit all along just to defend the Switch 2
lost and got raped intensifies
>>737369745Nice sametrannying, Eric. That new fanfiction isn't working for you
>>737369718whatthe only argument I have is that "not having a direct is not the end of the world you fucking faggots"that and "nintendo president didn't say that">>737369745oh so you're just autisticthe phrase means I actually lived through it rather than grifting or having vague nostalgic memories
>>737363552Oh so general directs are like dead dead
>>737366258I swear this meme never fails to give me a chuckle
I am confident that nobody ITT is actually going to buy or play this game>>737369851>grifting is when Nintendo DirectAre... are you people children who just use words they hear other people use without learning what they actually mean?
>>737369870man I hope you weren't around when they announced shit separately
>>737369440>identifying any flaw of a thing means you're completely throwing it all under the bus
>>737369440>Are Nintendofags seriously throwing the entire goddamn Switch generation under the busHow the fuck am I doing that? I'm not.
>>737369930Nice sametrannying, Eric. That snoytranny cpe flopped.
>>737369986The only "flaws" you have with Directs are>reactions from people you have obsessive parasocial attachment/hatred for (which isn't actually the Direct itself BTW)>personal misplaced envy over more popular games/IPs getting coverage alongside the games you like
>>737369930using "shitty direct means nintendo is dying" is grifting yes
>>737366325Would be so funny if Star Fox BTFO Fire Emblem like it did Dinosaur Planet and Rosalina in the Mario Galaxy Movie.
>>737370152again, how is it throwing the switch under the bus when it got separate announcements still? my stance after all was that "we're not losing directs anyway">insists on using muh envy
>>737366395Zamn she gives me Chocolate Fever!
>>737369851What you're doing is taking troll replies and then thinking everyone else is trolling you, and then you're building a straw man out of troll replies to respond to others. You aren't engaging with anyone, you're just flat out defending a company without any critical thinking involved. Our argument was over marketing, not about no directs being the end of the world or what the President was saying. It was about if it's actually the right call long term in regards to generating hype. Sincerely take a break from the internet.
>>737366431Shiver giving me a toejob and making cum from her feet
I like directs. I prefer directs even. But this idea that losing directs is somehow a colossal and critical failure that'll cripple nintendo. I just don't see.
>>737370178The only places you'll find those reactions are>shitstirring retards on /v/ who just poopoo everything anyway>literally who posts on social media you have to go out of your way to hunt forYou just want to justify the lack of Directs as some sort of conquest that owns someone else. Stop trying to look at everything Nintendo does through the lens of "Us Versus".
>>737364691Rent free, just like when the Mario Galaxy movie released.
>>737370341you're the one who's combining the two though. I know the person who said that isn't the troll. you just used that aspect to make it sound like I'm a bootlicker. Because somehow I'm not screaming at the monitor being a retard about not having directs.
>>737366636What?! You still haven’t bought the Switch 2 yet anon?! What are you waiting for? Sega to make one? You’ve seen the games right?
>>737370152with this new strategy it seems like nintendo has "one" dedicated piece of news every week. it isn't farfetched to assume this could benefit less popular titles by giving them full undivided media attention for a longer period, compared to them sharing space with other (bigger) announcements from a direct at the same time.see for example rhythm heaven's tweet blowing up in views; if we got that news alongside a big reveal like oot it would've been overshadowed in some proportion
>>737366678>Yoshi SloppaKekw
>>737370393>literally who posts on social media you have to go out of your way to hunt forless about that and more "they keep being pushed in your face no matter how much you avoid their garbage"and did I say I hate directs? no I said we can live without it, they will come anyway. the world isn't dying because directs aren't there. we're still talking about splatoon raiders anyway
>>737366874Nintendo has forgotten about NINTENDO DIRECTS
>>737367247>Inb4 Off Model
>>737370629finally, someone get itit's exactly the mindset this post is referencing that irks me
>>737367382Your bad judgment ruins your argument
>>737370482Drop the persecution complex, nowhere did I even call you a bootlicker. What I did call you was mentally ill because you immediately wanted to talk about the Famitsu thread for some fucking reason and I don't think that assessment was wrong considering the posts that followed that.I ended my post with >Essentially, Nintendo is currently swimming upstream but it remains to be seen if they're a Salmon.Which i have no idea is anything other than reasonable, because it means Nintendo COULD be right and going against the mainstream could pay off long term, but you can't even meet someone half way. Which gives credence to the idea that you are a bootlicker when you can't even admit that it might not pay off long term. This is a drastic change in Nintendo's marketing strategy and one that goes against the rest of the industry, of course it will draw scrutiny.
>>737370509As we all know, Twitter and Youtube likes directly correlate to sales.
>>737370772anon you literally called me "defending nintendo" or "nutlicking". I may be an oldfag but I can tell youth slang.and again, that's inaccurate because we literally see them shift stuff but not much. if you pay attention to their news release it's always on the same days. also ironic you mention the last statement because that's what people said when they did directs..
>>737370810True, look at tLoU2 and Animal Crossing.
>>737365232>improved Pearl-BotThere is no improving upon Pearlbot. Pearlbot is an absolute treasure, and perfect in every way!
>>737370919>>737370810you jest but AC has massive social media output
>>737370736I mean we are in the longest break between Directs that wasn't spurred on by COVID or being near the end of the gen, and we literally have no new first party games on the radar since last year sorry but I was told that Pokémon doesn't count as first-party.
>>737370967why do people not count partner directs, especially now that nintendo can go along with third parties not named bamco
