| Johnw1104 said: It really concerns me that Nintendo's console releases appear to be out of sync with their major franchises. It seems exceptionally unlikely that there's a mario kart, smash bros, zelda, star fox, or even Splatoon that'll be released for the next console within the next couple years. We haven't heard anything aboyt a 3d mario or Pikmin or something, and for their sake I hope they have the former, coming for the nX. Either way, this is why I'm against an early release for the NX... I just can't see how they'd have a quality launch lineup ready in time, and they'll likely botch it as they did with the wii u. |
3D Mario will probably at launch, we already heard that Pikmin is nearly finished so that also probably means launch title. New MK could be possible at end of 2017, Splatoon around 2017/2018, Smash 2018/2019, Zelda is possible around 2019.
Point is that before they needed to make two separate Mario Kart games, two 2D/3D Mario games, two Zelda games, two Smash Bros games ( just this gen) separate for handheld and home console each generation, buy with NX they will not need to this any more, that means smaller development time for only one same game than for separate two games.
Nintendo start working on NX games in 2014. and they probably moved some unanounced Wii U projects to NX, so they will have prepared quality launch title for this years NX launch.
