I can add wagering I think, what should the options be? Same as poll or simplified a bit?

Can be the same as poll.

Was thinking of changing it to have Late 2020/Early 2021, Late 2021/early 2022 cause I have a feeling it'll be announced for holiday and then delayed to March, but I guess more risky this way.

Put 1000 in for Late 2021, can't bet more boo.

Seeing so many say delay or late 2021 and so on, makes me think of when Super Mario Odyssey and Xenoblade 2 were both announced with their dates and the 90% of people who all said "No way they will keep those date, delay imminent."

Or those that said Animal Crossing would be delayed and it was.

Animal Crossings delay I'm sure is all up to the fact they have Pokemon as a holiday title already and thought to spread it out by releasing in March.

Just like most of BotW's delay was longer due to waiting for Switch release. Not saying BotW didn't get a delay before that, but at some point they decided to just wait till Switch regardless if could release sooner.

ANd as someone just said, engine/physics/ect all done for BotW sequel. SO much easier now. Tons of games get delayed when on a new engine. Working on an existing engine is vastly easier. Plus it has been already like 3 years now. They haven't been sitting on their thumbs like Retro.



King Zell said 2020, and his word is law. However, Zelda titles get delayed so often. I think this one has the best chance of actually coming out on time, and will launch with the Switch "pro". Holiday 2020 to combat next gen

They have spent a little bit updating and releasing DLC for BOTW. But they are following up one of the highest rated games of all time. They have to get it right, and they will take their time to make sure what they release can live up to peoples expectations. They're not going to rush this.

Yeah lesser options are lesser risk usually.

Can we make the betting in Rupees?

Should @TalonMan add an option to change what is the shown unit of VG$? I probably would also switch to rupees. Gil, Zenny, Macca, Bells, Poke would be alternatives. Maybe a premium feature for supporters.

2021 GOTY.



This game will come out before Metroid Prime 4. So, I would say, fall of 2020



Holiday 2020 makes the most sense imo.



Voted early 2021. A little extra dev time compared to a late 2020 release, it doesn't need a holiday launch to sell, plus that will still be in FY 2020.
