I guess we’ll find out if those F-Zero and Donkey Kong rumours were true.

LOL well, they were both technically correct.

The best kind of correct?

Considering at this point, I only really care about F-Zero and Star Fox’s languishing, as far as Nintendo’s catalogue is concerned; I’m just not going to hype. If something’s worth seeing in the direct, I’ll hear about it and watch it after the fact.

My moonshot wishlist includes -Metroid prime 2 -Legend of Zelda windwaker/twilight princess

Not expecting anything for the Switch 2 as Nintendo wouldn’t compromise holiday sales. Just just regular Switch releases this year and early next year stuff.

Metroid Prime 2 shadow drop would be nice.

F Zero X remake please. original was already 60fps, so upgraded graphics and the original soundtrack in full stereo and full 30 player online. Sounds good to me.

I wonder, if the rumors about the Switch 2 are actually true - which so far I don’t think they are simply because it’s a Boy Who Cried Wolf thing by now - then at some point they ought to start firing up marketing for it. Remains to be seen whether anything official pops up in this, because by you’d think it would.

They would never hurt their Christmas sales by announcing anything officially until the beginning of next year.

I was thinking they could announced it and say it would be fully backward compatible, so it won’t effect their games sales, but it would still effect their hardware sales, so I guess you are right.

They could drop the price of the Switch to $200 and grab up the people that have been on the fence due to price.

The good sign -to me- is if they’re still hyping up major Switch games so late in the game, it probably means whatever comes next will be backwards compatible.

I mean i’m sure it’s reasonably far into the development by now. The only questions are, is it going to be backwards compatible with the Switch, and is it coming out next year?
