Don't be silly, Smash HAS to release in November! IT HAS ='(



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

You forgot all the 3rd party titles to tie in the big releases.


Like Watch_dogs and?

Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark, Sonic Boom!, Just Dance 2015, Call of Duty: Something, One Piece: Unlimited World RED, Skylanders: this year edition, and some others.

To be fair, that's not bad at all. The problem is not having third party...

However we do have:
Child of Light
Watch Dogs
Sonic Boon (TV series come this fall i heard, so i do believe this is possible)

Pretty good. Not confident that X will be 2014 though, have a feeling it might slip into next year


I think they will use that and Bayo2 to fill the gap between Hyrule Warriors and SSB.

Hope so.  Also wouldn't rule out a new game being revealed at E3 that releases this year also, like 3D World from last year

I'll love to eat crow and see Zelda HD trailer with a demo and a release date this holiday season. SSB can wait for february.


I'd be cool with that!



"Games are a trigger for adults to again become primitive, primal, as a way of thinking and remembering. An adult is a child who has more ethics and morals, that's all. When I am a child, creating, I am not creating a game. I am in the game. The game is not for children, it is for me. It is for an adult who still has a character of a child."

That lineup is small and i have feeling two of those games will be delayed like smash bros and X



Started gaming on PS3 3/6/14 :)

*Note: Winter =/= holidays. Holidays Nov-December. Winter can be from Nov to February.


In this situation, winter is just the global equivalent of holidays. Unless a delay is announced, Smash is coming out at the end of this year.

 

 

OT: The lineup is full of great games but also has great droughts. Hopefully E3 has some announcements to fill these voids.

This is grim. Even the 3DO had a steadier stream of releases for its first couple of years. Even comparing it to the Dreamcast is an insult to the Dreamcast. There was a barrage of quality Dreamcast games for the two years it was on the market.

I can only see three possible outcomes:

1. Massive price cut that sparks consumer and developer interest (since this didn't work with the GameCube, even at $99, I don't see it working here as the Wii U has far fewer games than the GC).

2. The system is discontinued and Nintendo regroups and releases a successor in 2015.

3. The system is discontinued and Nintendo goes multiplatform on home consoles.

I don't see the problem here. Nintendo is trying to get you guys off the couch and go outside.

This. The Wii U was the first big step of their QOL push all along - weaning Nintendo gamers off video games.

Iwata is a genius.
