Not a single person has mentioned Metroid Prime 4, like we've given up all hope 

 

At this point I think they've moved it onto whatever the next system is and we won't see it until they unveil that hardware. 

 

Thats not based on any rumour or anything, just my dodgy guts.

Haha a few of us are hype in the office. We are gonna put it on the projector. Cannot wait to have kids to do the same as you Stanley! Sounds like it will be awesome! 

It has reinvigorated my love for gaming if I’m honest, it also makes me realise just how much better they are than the completion - kids just get their games.

I mean even a fairly lacklustre release such as Mario Strikers, in terms of content at least, has given us way more pleasure than most other stuff this year, same goes for Switch Sports.

Well it's at least a year away.

[Stanley]

Yeah you can’t rush a game like Prime 4, still some message about how it’s coming along would be nice, a short trailer maybe 😬

[meatbin]

I'm starting to believe we're going to get a BOTW2 official name and release time (not strictly a date, but sometime like 'Spring 2023).

[Stoppy2000]

I'd be surprised if we don't at least see a little bit more of BOTW2...

[fat flatulent git]

At last, a look at the Switch Pro.

Yeah at this point that’s a given. 

[SMD]

Nope

[Myshkin]

SwitchU. Comes with an innovative clamshell design and THREE screens.

Think you mean Switch 2 matey.

 

Ah yeah. 

 

 

[Dimahoo]

Whats drake4tflops? I mean thats nice for what exactly?

[SMD]

Nintendo showing off a new console before Christmas that won't be available till next year would be catastrophically stupid.

What are the confirmed Nintendo releases for this winter? 

 

If only there was a Nintendo Direct coming that may address this.

I like how those are the same images they used this time last year.

[yakumo]

I tell you what, if something like Red Dead Redemption was released on the Switch that be some big news. 

[SMD]

There was a rumour that Rockstar looked into it but I'm guessing the online was an issue. Same as the always rumoured GTA V. We'll see, I guess.

I just thought there was a few that were already confirmed? The big switch Xmas release is Pokémon I'm presuming.

I think the omission of online play would be something I could live with. 

[FishyFish]

I wonder if Pikmin 4 will ever surface?

 

It was years ago that Miyamoto said it was nearly ready, and I presume he wasn’t talking about the mobile phone game.

Bayonetta 3, Mario+Rabbids Sparks of Hope, and yeah Pokémon. Advance Wars 1&2 Remake is the other one but it’s been put on hold due to world events.

Don't give me hope.

[Keyboard Koala]

Advance Wars 1&2 Re-boot recently resurfaced to pre-order on several websites, so we might get a release date for that one as well.

Don't get me wrong, I'm fine with single player, but that's not Rockstar's MO any more.

[thesnwmn]

I suspect the bigger problem with RDR (or the sequel which I presume is the real one investigated) is getting it running at all at anywhere near an acceptable graphical fidelity and framerate. These are games that just shouldn't bother trying to turn up on Switch.

[Stoppy2000]

Couple of games I'm still waiting to be appear on switch:

 

FTL

Fire Pro Wrestling

 

I realise neither are likely. 🙁

None of them are technically Nintendo though - they're Platinum/Ubi/GameFreak. Would be nice to have some *Nintendo* games.

It has resurfaced at least twice on the eShop, but then vanished again.

[Keyboard Koala]

Meaning we'll definitely get a release date now.

It's acting like a submarine in keeping with the game.
