| Gamemaster87 said: I think you forgot that they are still working on some unannounced Wii U Games (which was confirmed by Iwata) and that their home console output is like 6 Games a year, not 20. If you really expect that many AAA Games then you will clearly be disappointed. |
Well they might still be working on 1/2 smaller bugdet games,if even that,for Wii U but that might be it ,also weren't you the guy that a couple of weeks ago made a thread about how the Wii U was getting atleast 8 new games for the upcoming year or was it just unannouced games I honestly don't remember if it was for next year or game to be announced at E3,if you were and it was about games launching next year then how did they go from a bare minimum output of 8 games to an output of 6?
First things first I won't be dissapointed if most of my list is wrong or if I get nothing about it right(apart from the confirmed Zelda HD), I just give a plausible prediction since Nintendo most likely wants as many games as possible in the first year of the NX.
Now out of my list of a possible 14 games(not 20 btw) there are 2/3 ports of already released games so even if you count them as AAA games the dev cycle for these games is alot shorter and simpler than new game and a port of a game that it's already in development,then there is a party game and a small spinoff so not sure how those could be considerate AAA games, after those I put BG&E2 and a Platinum game so these are made by 3rd party so they don't really count towards Nintendos output of games, and these are also 2 games that I said that might not release next year and if Ubisoft didn't want Destructoid to remove the article regarding BG&E beign NX exclusive, I wouldn't even mentioned.
Fire Emblem NX was one of the games that I said it might not launch next year but the ip is now considered a major ip for Nintendo so having it in the 1st year of NX might be something they want to do, I think that Luigi's Masion 3 started development as a Wii U game but was pushed to the NX and after the sales of Dark Moon I would be more suprised than dissapointed if LM3 isn't released on the 1st year of the NX,Pikimin 4 much like LM3 probably started out as a Wii U game but was moved to the NX with this one it would only suprise me if it was a Wii U exclusive.
Retro's last game was TF and that lauched in Feb'14 after beign delayed most likely so they could have a game launching in 2014 before MK8 and if the rumours are true then they started working on a new game in Aug'14 so expecting there game to be released in Sep'17 is pretty reasonable.
And finnaly unless the entire MK8 team worked on the DLC,witch I very much doubt,the next MK should launch next year,because MK since the DS as been launching every 3 years,and the same can be said for 3D Mario the last one was in 2013 and since Galaxy they have released a new one every 3 years.
