I wouldn't bet on that becoming a popular opinion

OT: These screens look a lot nicer than the ones from the previous thread. The art style still isn't my cup of tea, but at least the awkward attempt at realism (intentional or not) we saw in the others is a lot less prevalent here.

YES!!! I LOVE customizations!!!!
Cool weapons too.

And i hope it does get amiibo functionality. Even if its just costumes, or even better some weapons too ( maybe just change the appearance of it )

And i do like how its not just menus.
And what do they mean by 'communicate' with other players in that plaza?

Pocky Lover Boy!

I mean like a mini game, a $20 - $40 dollar game , a minor game, because "it did't have enought content" I love how people assumed that based on a trailer and gameplay of one level!!

Look, if this game still only has one online mode, like they said in this trailer, then it absolutely be a $40 game. One mode is not enough for a $60 shooter.

The art style is in true Nintendo fashion, very servicable for what they want to do. And man, all those costumizations!

Probably looking at their profile and set-up like they mentioned and miiverse post.

Nope. It looks tired, but the gameplay on the other hand looks awesome. Customization seems limited, but then again, there are shooters more limited as well in this department such as Gears of War (and it's still awesome in almost every way).

My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.
