To add on to that, the game heavily pushed online functionality, it was like an MMOlite experience, but then the Switch de-emphasized online in a way where I think it would have been hard to find friends and do boss battles with the shit Switch chat app.
Nier was an Xbox 360 game, how hard can it be to make it not run like shit?
But Replicant 1.22... is not a 360 game anymore, its essentially a remake with how much got changed and overhauled. I would hope it can run on Switch without looking like ass, but probably only at 30fps. But the original game was not a technical powerhouse and it ran at 30fps on 360/ps3 at 720p with a bunch of jank graphics. The remaster/make doesn't run as well as you would expect, even on PS5. It's only 1080p on all Playstation consoles, with 1440p on the Xbox One X (and by extension Series X and S). Even on PC there are issues, and they continued the old Japanese tradition of tying the game speed to framerate, so its locked at 60fps.
I feel it is much too late for this. Nintendo typically announces DLC before launch or shortly after, not counting the weird reuse of MK Tour content. It has been half a year with no word. At this point a sequel is likely in development for Switch 2, if not a 3D Mario.
I'm suppressing it but I kinda feel the same way...
That's the only way I see Conker getting a release on Switch, so I'm hoping for it just for that alone.
That would be an awesome swansong for Switch.
I'd love Nintendo to give more of their franchises the RPG treatment. Donkey Kong and Star Fox would be cool too.
I forgot that it’s been 3 years since Mario Golf.
Speaking of Namco, pretty sure PAC-MAN World RePac was announced for Switch first. It has been 2 years, maybe they will do World 2.
I feel like we would have got this on Mario Day if it was coming. Sorry dude, they're surely on to Wonder 2 or Maker 3 on Switch 2.
There's a possibility he's hinting at a new Mario and Sonic game. It's been a while since the last one, so maybe they've been working behind the scenes for Summer 2024?
3D Mario Maker would be badass, but I wonder how viable it would be. Even if they just limited it to SM64 it'd probably be a huge task, but it's the only way to really differentiate a 3rd entry significantly.
I wish they'd do real damn Mario & Sonic crossover instead of just sports.
What exactly was the hold up with those anyways?
There was speculation Konami delayed it to match the release of Eiyuden Chronicles to try and sabotage it, but given that EC is out and there's no word.....who knows?
That is the dream, but I can't see it happening until Miyamoto retires or some unrelated miracle occurs.
Did konami also sabotage Eiyuden Chronicles by inserting the staff with wokalizers?
Well, if thats the way they go it would probably be the 3D team doing it, and thus wouldn't fit the timeline unless you x out the supposed 3D Mario title we are going to get with Switch 2's launch. And I don't want to live in that world.
