Nintendos holiday 2020

in Nintendo Discussion on 10 September 2020

Well, I think the pandemic ended up changing their plans a little. I imagine that the big holiday title (the one that release around november 20) would be Super mario 3D world, that appeals 2D and 3D plataformer mario audience, and would just fit with the sales-wise importance of the date. Make more sense than Hyrule warriors, a usually niche game (that will end up being the best selling musou...

Bloomberg: Multiple Devs Saying Nintendo Asking For 4K Switch Games

in Nintendo Discussion on 09 September 2020

Hiku said: If this would be through DLSS, I'm guessing they'd be asking some devs to implement some higher quality assets in their games?Not sure how that technique works. Well, I would guess that 4K footage of a game is needed to the training of the DLSS network for reconstructing 4k frames from that game. Well, not exactly needed, but would improve the image quality for...

So, the holiday game is a musou, that's usually niche. Well, it will be the best sold ever musou game. Interesting to see. It would also help to move botw and vice versa, specially for new owners. It will interesting to see. ...

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity announced, taking place100 years before Breath of the Wild (releases November 20th, 2020)

in Nintendo Discussion on 08 September 2020

Wow Sonner and better than I expected. I thougtht HW2 would be released after BOTW2, but would be like HW, a different history, and just the addition of botw characters, enemies, weapons would fill the game with enough content to justify the sequel. And all new and old champions would be playable, as well was the enemies (lynel and some of the ancient robots) However, age of calamity seems...

If the N64 had a CD-ROM Drive, would've Nintendo won the generation in sales?

in Sales Discussion on 08 September 2020

I only became a Nintendo fan (videogame fan in general) because of they used cartridges on N64. I was prone to playstation at these times. But I couldnt afford any console(I was a kid). When I got a PC, I tryed to emulate the PS1. But having to download the CD sized games made it impossible for me (horrible internet at 2000s in Brazil). But I managed to download the N64 games. These games...

Super Mario 3D All-Stars monstrous performance on amazon.com and it's already overtaken TLOU2 2020 total sales.

in Sales Discussion on 08 September 2020

If mario 64 received a revamped modern visual, I bet the collection would sell less. People want to recreate low poly experience they had in M64, remembering this was part of mario trajectory in his 35 years. This selling point is greater than a remake from scratch, IMO. Their effortless product (under right timing and conditions) has more value than a full remake that would take many man...

Which next gen full power console will be cheaper?

in Sales Discussion on 20 August 2020

PS5 without disk drive Diskless to be sold at loss. Forcing only digital, lots of console owners avoiding the preowned market, would be more profitable in the long term, and could compensate the losses of the diskless version manufacturing. ...

Will the Switch do well in Brazil?

in Nintendo Discussion on 20 August 2020

The only chance is if they start to manufacture/mount the Nintendo switch in Manaus. With the commercial war between China and US, Nintendo is trying to find other places to manufacture. Also, the brazilian currency is very under valuated currently. Yet, it would be a very bold move to bring factories to Brazil, I still doubt. ...

Finally Nintendo is bringing the Switch to Brazil!

in Nintendo Discussion on 20 August 2020

Yay! I hope that at least it free us from scalpers. I only buy digital games because I really cant find them physical for a fair price. I had already given up to play ring fit adventure some day. About the situation of Brasil, we had everything to grow again, with work and retirement reforms approved. The majority of growth projections were about 3% in 2019. But we grew only 1% in 2019,...

My Switch 2/3 Prediction

in Nintendo Discussion on 21 July 2020

Switch 2 I expect something like: Tablet of slightly small size(width/length), but thicker(gameboy or folded 3DS are still good tickness). Larger screen due less bezels. With a SSD, and a power of something between PS4 and xbox lockhart. 2 models of joycon. One smaller, not meant to be played separately. Other bigger and foldable. When closed is like a half xbox controller and can be atached...
