I think it is going to be launched during the first halv of NX existance for sure, I agree with that. However, where is it rumored that the NX will be Wii U powerlevel? The Tegra x1 chip alone is even at its lowest 50% more powerful than the one on Wii U.

I doubt we will see MK9 during the first year though, the MK team worked on quality DLC for long just like the splatoon team did with that game. Neither will come in 2017, possibly 2018.

 

I don't know myself, just going off what others are saying. Everyone is giving different estimates, but the consensus is that the X1 is far closer to Wii U than Xbox One.

Not expecting it to be a launch title, but hopefully sometime before the end of 2017.

I'm probably being too optimistic.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

Not sure why and where? people are saying that though, the rumored chip X1 clocks in at 1TFlop as it's peak. Surely the performance after customized to perform it wonk sink to Wii U levels. The K1 chip though is right around the Wii U performance (~350 GFlops) but that's not going to be it.

I don't think so, Nintendo is way too lazy for that. But it better be.

Would be a good idea and I can see this happening.




Dr.Vita talks about Playstation Vita in 2016!
Playstation Vita Media Create Sales (2014 vs 2015 vs 2016)
Playstation Vita Japan Retail Software Sales (2013 vs 2014 vs 2015 + 2015 LTD Edition)
Prediction: Nothing will outsell PSP anymore (except Playstation home consoles)

If the recent rumors are actually true, then Animal Crossing would be a perfect launch title.

Animal Crossing would help the NX a lot, specially in Japan. The mobile game will also help quite a bit.

How much of a difference would there be, like is it majorly noticable like Wii to Wii U, or is it more subtle like GCN to Wii? Sorry I'm not well versed in specs n stuff so excuse my mistake, but I'd still like to think they can port Wii U games and they wouldn't look too off compared to games made ground up for the NX. I feel Zelda BotW is an indication of this.

I agree. Definitely a year one title. One of their biggest IP's and due a sequel.

The NX is launching in tough market conditions so Nintendo definitely want a fast start.

A proper Mario, animal crossing, sun / Moon port and splatoon 2 all make sense for year 1. Super Smash Bros and Mario Kart with 2 years.

Basically Nintendo will guarantee an excellent first 2 years to get their hardcore fans on board along with Japan. Which will have titles like monster hunter and yokai watch too.

The real test for Nintendo is after the first 2 years when all their hardcore fans have bought in. Will they achieve mass market appeal or just slowly fade in terms of yearly sale's.

Guess I have to bump this since I was WRONG!!! D:

I'm now worried it wont even release this year.
