Forums - Gaming - Rumor: Mario Kart and Splatoon On The Switch Are Remasters!

So we're getting the old courses, DLC and new courses? That'd be insane.

Can't wait for Switch!!!!!!!! If only Nintendo could hussle and get it out this holiday :(



I'm cool with a couple of remasters to fill out the launch lineup. But, there better be a bunch of originals at launch too. I'm a solid Nintendo fan, but I'm not gonna buy the same content twice, except in very rare cases. The only Wii U game I think I would buy this way would be Kart. That game is great, and if there's at least 16 new tracks, I'll have to buy it.

Too bad they choose a bad MK. Gonna skip it.

What?  Its probably in my top 10 games of all time.

Splatoon i can understand, that came out in 2015. But MK8 was a may 2014 game. So by the time the Switch is launched that would be almost 3 years.

My question is, what has nintendo been doing? it's not like they release like 4/5 games per year.

Agreed.  Its time for MK9 next year.

yeah, 3 years is enough for a new MK. maybe they're using the same engine? mario kart 8 looks great and with new hardware they can push the graphics a bit further.

I don't have a problem with remasters (especially ones thst add new content), i just really don't understand what Nintendo is doing. 

They skipped Metroid on the wiiU, ok let's give them that.... Metroid sometimes skips a generation. They are yet to release a proper  Zelda since what.... 2011? 

I'm not saying they shouldnt take their time but considering what kinda commervial failure the WiiU was, I really would have been expecting Nintendo to come into 2017 with a lot more gusto than I'm seeing. 

Ah well, I hope I'm wrong. And it's still early yet, these are all just rumors for all we know.

So basically most of the Switch's launch library is going to consist of remastered or enhanced Wii U ports.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.
