Those were already not present in the announcement trailer long before Saudi bought shares off the market - Nintendo has zero cents, not a penny, of Saudi money from that purchase, btw.  Daisy also was not present.  If you think a 500 billion dollar sovereign wealth fund charged with managing the wealth of the Saudi government even looked up from their balance sheets when trailers for Mario Strikers came out, you seriously do not understand how any of this works.  The money talking loud is Nintendo's revenue and stock value.  So long as that keeps rolling in and the stock keeps going up, the PIF will have little to say about anything they do.

You're not funny.

She'll be added in a post launch update most likely.

Ok I thought you were joking so let me reiterate.

SAUDI ARABIA HAS ZERO INFLUENCE ON ANYTHING NINTENDO DOES!

They have neither the right to tell Nintendo what to do nor do they care. A 5% stake does not give them any power over Nintendo. None at all.

Mario Strikers Battle League was being developed for many years. Saudi Arabia buying a tiny minority stake a few weeks prior to release doesn't mean shit for the game. If Daisy was going to be there she is going to be there. Just not at launch.

Saudi Arabia has not payed a single cent to Nintendo! They bought the stock from other shareholders. That's how this this works. If they ever had the audacity to think that 5% gave them the right to demand from Nintendo to remove any characters, nobody at Nintendo would give a shit.

The Saudis care about money more than the products of the companies they invest in.

So once again, because saying it previously has fallen on deaf ears:

A 5% stake does not give an investor power over the company.

Btw, in Saudi Arabia women do not wear burkas.

I give up.

Nothing yet, but I'm assuming it'll be announced fairly shortly after Xbox initially announces the game. Pokémon Snap is the final N64 game that we know about coming to the Expansion Pack service, so the next batch of N64 game announcements line up with Nintendo's typical June Direct. I'm thinking that Goldeneye will be the next N64 game to come to the service. Xbox getting the remaster but Nintendo getting the original version of the game.

The stories came out about why that remaster was cancelled for the 360 over 10 years ago say that Nintendo were the ones that weren't on board with the re-release. But, now that Nintendo has a subscription service, they could've changed their tone of voice.

For me, it's like a mountain of salt at this point like it's not officially announced yet, but, I just went to Xbox's website, and there is literally a public list of Goldeneye achievements for Xbox. And it's been up for several days now. You would think Microsoft would have pulled it down almost as quickly as it went up if it was a joke or something that was accidentally posted for whatever reason. It's been 3 days, and the site is still viewable for all the public to see. So it does seem to be more of a question of when. Especially with the achievements going live so close to the Xbox showcase too.

I'm probably the only one here, but I really really liked the Goldeneye Remake on Wii. One of the only shooters I got into. It makes me sad that I can't play it online anymore. Wish they'd rerelease that on Switch. Probably wouldn't find much of a community, but it would be something.

Beautiful. The soundtrack has more of a classic JRPG (kinda PS1 era?) feel to it. I'm really feeling it.

Nobody does world design quite like Monolith Soft. I remember one of the first things that drew me to the original Xenoblade was its huge, epic, vibrant environments. The music is predictably fantastic as well.

We are in for a treat next month.
