Forums - Nintendo - Did Nintendo accidentally leak a Switch version of UltraSun and UltraMoon?

VGPolyglot on 06 June 2017

So, someone showed this tweet to me, and it makes me very curious:

I'm not sure how to embed Tweets, but here's a picture:

Do you guys think that this means anything? I think that it's pretty damning evidence, I don't think Nintendo would screw up and put a Switch port there if there truly was not going to be a Switch port.

Oh, I guess Tweets embed automatically!

He also tweeted that the company said it was a clerical error, meaning that it's the error of a worker who posted that. Could be PR cover up but I wouldn't get hopes too high unfortunately.

......Hmmm.....Possibly. I could see it as a 2018 game, but E3 might reveal more. I could see it as a 2018 holder of ARMS spot on the release window.



The Democratic Nintendo fan....is that a paradox? I'm fond of one of the more conservative companies in the industry, but I vote Liberally and view myself that way 90% of the time?

I just don't get it

Even Capcom figured it out. Since when does capcom make more logical decisions than nintendo

Then why not just announce it? It's not like the 3DS version is not going to sell millions. Is it because of the switch demand being bigger than the supplies?



You know it deserves the GOTY.

A Switch version would of been cool, but I'm pretty happy with 7th gen staying on 3DS. A port never would of looked or featured anything as good as what a 8th gen built for the ground up game for Switch would be.

So even though this is definitely just an error, a Pokémon game for the Switch is just too soon for a true first HD home console Pokémon game, I'm fine waiting another year or so for the Switch to have a much bigger install base and a true Pokémon game made especially for it's hardware.

Pokemon isn't made by Nintendo. And the Switch doesn't need a Pokemon this year. There's no reason to release it.

Edit: I'm going insane here. 

Edit2: it finally worked?

Edit 3: fuck it



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

Get ppl to buy the 3DS version.

Get them to buy it again on Switch.

Sounds like something Pokemon fans would do. So why not?

I think it was an error but still even if it wasn't I don't know how many would be interested in purchasing it on the Switch after that underwelming trailer...
