Forums - Nintendo Discussion - 3DS successor launch titles?

I think we could see something like this for Nintendo's next-gen devices.

Spring 2016-Nintendo Fusion handheld launch, Animal Crossing big launch title.

Summer 2016-Luigi's Mansion 3

Holiday 2016-Nintendo Fusion console launch, 3D Mario big launch title

Spring 2017-Mario Kart 9

Summer 2017-Twilight Princess HD

Holiday 2017-Pokemon Gen 7

These will be the real big titles released every few months with a bunch of smaller support titles mixed between.

Dragon Quest 11, Metroid 5 (if not on 3DS), Monster Hunter 5, and Pokemon will all release the first year for the Nintendo Handheld platform, and will be playable on their home-console in 2017.

That's probably too soon, the next devices will most likely release in 2016 or 2017, I just can't see Smash Bros being ready by then. Holiday 2018 is possible tho.

Surprised no one's mentioned a new Zelda. Nintendo did confirm that they were thinking about a new handheld Zelda around E3 last year. Maybe you guys are thinking the new handheld Zelda will be for the 3DS?



Your 2016 -2017 ideas is horrible. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Let it not happen pls Ninty. 2018 spring is perfect.  2016 way way too early and 2017 a little to early. 

 

 

My perfect Launch Lineup:
>20 shovelware titles
>5 good-great 3rd party titles
>Pokemon main series game
> new Kid Icarus OR Metroid game
> Zelda remake- preferably Windwaker cos ya.
>Mario Spinoff
>Warriors game.
> Nintendo new ip. Even if small just like Steeldiver was.

Pokemon will make sure it has a amazing start for it to seem cool and the rest will make a great Day 1 choice. (if XL version is available.)



Likely a new IP, and some remakes. That's all I have for predictions.
As for what I would actually like....
-Mario Kart 9
-Fire Emblem
-A Mario platformer- Fairly creative please, no New Super Mario Bros. or Super Mario 3D Land/World.



Lifetime Sales Predictions 

Switch: 151 million (was 73, then 96, then 113 million, then 125 million, then 144 million)

PS5: 115 million (was 105 million) Xbox Series S/X: 57 million (was 60 million, then 67 million)

PS4: 120 mil (was 100 then 130 million, then 122 million) Xbox One: 51 mil (was 50 then 55 mil)

3DS: 75.5 mil (was 73, then 77 million)

There is absolutely no way 2018 is when it releases, sales do not justify 3DS lasting that long.

Indeed, Nintendo will have no presence whatsoever in some territories if they held out til 2018 for the next system.
