Sounds too good to be true sadly. I pains me to be this cynical



The 1,2,3 thingy seems well thought out if its fake.

The "forward" games collection you can buy physical with both dvd/cartiridge in box, doesnt make sense.
Those are gonna be expensive or eat into their profits on the software side.

34+ games the first year... okay.

And some just sounds like a joke. `Mermaid Legends, a fantasy adventure game for mature audiences` how do you make a game about mermaids for `mature audiences`?

^ that part had me going "whaaaat?" too.



"Super Mario Bros. & Friends: Dance!"

If true, I'm sold.



You know it deserves the GOTY.

My imagination is running wild 



I....don't believe any of this is legit info. Mermaid Legends? Really?

It sounds made up to me, but cudos to the guy if I'm wrong.



What I find interesting is not the claims of what's in development but the claim of two device under one ecosystem and not a hybrid. Either way it seems very likely the will be a shared library of some sort.

Well Pokemon Sun and Moon had a code name of Rainbow, it's likely a code name if true.

Some of this sounds pretty much guaranteed, LEGO games for example. IIRC they all released on Wii U/3DS so them releasing on NX as well is pretty much a sure thing.

Some sounds pretty unlikely. Nintendo VR headset seems unlikely, something about it surely would have leaked already if that were a thing. And Platinum making 2 exclusives, while not impossible, seems unlikely after their Wii U efforts.

Yeah, like I said it could be bull, but just something to tlk about the possibilites until revel, which should be either this month or next if I were to guess.

The VR headset thing does seem unlikely, but of all the console pubs, Nintendo would probably make the best mass market headset(not the best high end, or best overall, just best mass market) due to them likely to support the device with first party efforts, and their streaming tech, which could do away with wire entirely.

Platinum is likely working with Nintendo on something, I doubt Nintendo are hiring them for their blockbuster chops, but more as a way to pad their library, and they work cheap and fast from what I can tell, and they seem to have a good working relationship with Nintendo.

Yeah Mermaids Legends.  It does sound silly, but then I remember Mermaid Forest and how that was one of the most messed up anime I've seen...so I can't write it off totally.
