OT: I completely disagree. Their presence was decent, but far from the best they've shown there in previous years. If you're not a Smash fan, you're left with some good third party announcements, and that's it.

They didn't announce a single game there, or even showcased a previously announced game... I think that's far from knocking it out of the park in my opinion.

Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 and that weird dancing gmae

I mean, first party-wise. Unless the dancing game is first party, which would be funny. xD 

Btw, Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 stole the show for me, but I expected at least one non-Smash Nintendo game to be there.



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

To be fair, Final Fantasy VII Remake haven't even released on its announced platform tho (and might never do actually).

PS: But I totally agree that the event made 2019 look even brighter for Switch. 

I was actually talking about the original, but yeah fair point you make there lol, I'm very much doubting we'll see the remake on PS4, it'll be next gen or something, lol. 

I can see a Versus situation here, where they announced the game before actually starting to develop it, the project turning out to be very ambitious and then they decide to leave it to PS5, where they will be able to fulfill their vision. I just hope they're able to launch it close to PS5... woud be an awesome reason/excuse to buy it early on.

Isn't that more of a ground rule double?

hitting it out of the park would've been with a MP4 trailer imo

MP4 will come, Marvel, MK11, and Crash Team Racing are three very solid additions to the Switch lineup for 2019.

On side that we didn't had Metroid showing thats was expected because insiders hints,
Marvel like Switch exclusive, MK11, and Crash Team Racing are all very strong announcements for Switch, and whats more important is that MK11 and Crash Team Racing are coming to Switch on same day like other version of game, so they are not later ports.

At this point I think it's safe to say that Prime 4 will be a launch title for Switch's successor.

Yeah, they'really just leaving us out to die here. I honestly think Reggie was intentionally ruffling Metroid fan's feathers.

Outside of Reggie’s Ridley in Smash bros. shirt, I don’t see what’s the problem here. 

If Nintendo is ready to show Metroid Prime 4, then they will show it. They’re not obligated to show it because it’s the Game Awards.

They teased it at E3 2017 to give Metroid Samus Returns a more favorable response and to throw fans a bone in that “Hey, we’re developing this game so please don’t ask anymore, ok?”

Thats my mindset personally. If a company is ready to show more, they will. At this time, Nintendo apparently didn’t feel the game is at a state to show off at the Game Awards. 

This idea that the game will no longer be developed for Switch and release on the Switch’s successor is weird. The Switch is only 2 years old. Plus, Breath of the Wild stayed its course and released on Wii U alongside the Switch version. You really think Nintendo would do what Metallox stated after all that?

Yeah, but every Smash character has at least one game on a Nintendo system of some kind. It's kind of a rule for Smash. 

That is actually more than Cloud had. 

Cloud had at least two games on Nintendo Systems.

Solid announcements tbh. Seems like Switch will be getting a nice array of 3rd party games. That's adding to Doom eternal, Yokai, DQXI and I'm sure we're gonna get much more.

For a second I thought Batman's Joker was in the game... Which would have been somewhat upsetting.

At any rate it's ok. Ultimate Alliance was a big surprise since I thought that franchise was dead and gone. I'm actually not too keen on it being Switch only. I think the Switch may be the ideal platform for it, just because of the joycons. I can see myself popping them off for impromptu multiplayer sessions on the go. However, if the franchise is actually going to continue, I think it needs a bigger base.

Oh and hopefully it doesn't suck like Alliance 2 did...
