About damn time we get those Smash Bros amiibo.

Meh about the Splatoon 2 launch date (will be away on vacation then) but still nice to have one.



"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."

July 21st  is  first day of summer vacation in japan.

I kept saying that the Switch wasn't a replacement for the 3DS because that's what Nintendo was saying bit nnnnnoooo it's stupid and naive to think that!

 



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

Splatoon 2 continues to give fans what they want! Oh if only all of Nintendo were like this! July release means I'll have to resist the game for around 4 months, I think I can manage that... maybe! All in all solid direct that delivered exactly what was promised.

Oh, I don't doubt that Mario Kart will sell great. The fact that it managed 8 million on Wii U should put those doubts to the grave.
I'm just unsure if it'll keep Switch sales steady for 3 months. Because, I don't buy ARMS as a system seller.

Depends on how hard Nintendo pushes ARMS.I was kinda dissapointed on how little they revealed on the game.



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

I live in Belgium too, but when I see 'independence day' I think of the US.

I've never heard anyone refer to the National Holiday as independence day.
But it sounds cool. Like we've actually fought an independence war.  :p

Can't see your image so if it's a sign that your post is sarcastic then ignore this, but otherwise, Switch is most certainly going to replace the 3DS, just not immediately is all.

I can't see the image either, but he's most certainly suffering from the curl-6 disease or a variation of it.

It's this, flipping you off

And with that I leave you all, good night!!! ZZZzzzzz
