    If this Yoshi game is as fun as the brilliant woolly world I'll be happy.

    Fire emblem Musou game. I'd say meh but team ninja might bring nuance to the combat.

    New Metroid

    Wasn't excited by trial of the sword but it looks like a combat focused eventide island.

    Second DLC looks like a prequel.

    More Amiibo. Take my money.

    you never asked what exclusives are coming out. :rolleyes: Either way it doesnt matter about the platform they come out on because they still make the company money. FIFA and COD are both big sellers and when games go up against them (Titanfall2 is a good example of this) they do lose out so why on earth Sony would shoot themselves in the foot like that by releasing a game at the same time is madness.

    my orginal post was in response to sony exclusives didnt think i would need to mention exclusives every time :rolleyes:

    Mario looks fantastic.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 51,411 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Ok Mario Odysee looks ****ing brilliant

    Edit: boobs.


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 17,134 Mod ✭✭✭✭cherryghost


    Wow Mario looks fantastic

    Wait that's it?

    I think jonnycivic's point was that with those big-name multiplatform games coming out between now and Xmas, there's no point in Sony releasing exclusives in the same timeframe due to the number of games coming out. Microsoft releasing Forza and Crackdown in that period makes sense to go along with the console launch, but single-player exclusives (and even some multiplayer-focused games) tend to get lost in the mix when released in that busy period.

    They're over to the Nintendo Treehouse now:



    Live Mario Oddessy gameplay now.

    If you think Switches were hard to get before, they're going to be like gold dust come Christmas.

    Rocket League cross platform. Now what platforms.

    Metroid and Mario were all I wanted to I'm happy. Everything else is a bonus


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 51,411 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Rabbids, Xenoblade, fire emblem Musou and Mario this year. New yoshi, Kirby, metroid prime and Pokemon later. Not Nintendos best but more than enough to blow everything else away from the other platform holders.

    I love Nintendo, but the double standards are laughable

    Microsoft/Playstation:
    "Here's the next entry in Popular Game Franchise"
    Viewers: "Oh, but is that actual gameplay, or a cutscene? And is it running on the console or on a high powered PC? Anyway, it'll be more of the same, just another sequel"
    Nintento: "4"

    We've now heard confirmation of the platforms Rocket League will allow for cross-network play with: Xbox One, Windows 10 and Steam.

    Just like Minecraft, PlayStation has seemingly not opted in to be included.

    Gears of War 1-4, Halo 1-5, Uncharted 1-4 - they're all the same game with nicer graphics.

    Trace the lineage of Zelda and Mario and they're generation defining, genre creating games.

    Really wish they showed some Metroid. It could be 2 years out.

    At least you actually rely on Nintendo to release a game within that time window (and often sooner than expected I've found) as opposed to Cupheads etc

    I've always maintained you only (objectively?) need 5-6 really great games to justify owning a console. The Switch is approaching that threshold now

    Zelda
    Mario Kart 8
    Splatoon 2
    Mario Odyssey
    Yoshi
    Metroid 4

    Essentially the same list of games I ended up with on the Wii U, but with Pikmin instead of Metroid
