“We have worked with a lot of other companies before, and we’re super happy with our relationship with Nintendo.There’s no reason to look anywhere else. They keep giving us better and better IP to work with, and as long as we do our job and make good games for them there’s no reason for us to venture out.”
Hanzala from eXputer: "The cruel hammer of Nintendo has fallen. Farewell, 3DS and Wii U, you surely brightened my life and many others; you won't be forgotten."
A new list goes over eight of the the most useless amiibo, ranging from the Shadow Mewtwo card to the Qbby figure.
VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "10 years. It’s been almost 10 years since the last mainline release in the Mario Kart series. Mario Kart 8 came out for the Wii U in 2014 and became the best-selling game for the system by a sizeable margin, and later pulled the same magic trick on the Nintendo Switch under the stage name Deluxe. All in all, it's sold nearly 70 million copies over the last decade and is still selling like hot cakes to this day, so it’s no wonder Nintendo has been in no rush to replace it. However, with rumors of a new system being just around the corner, and reports a few years back that a new Mario Kart is indeed under way, it seems the era of 8 might very well be drawing to a close. It’s an exciting prospect to be sure, but after two Nintendo systems with Mario Kart 8 at their heart, a lot of questions remain about how Nintendo will choose to follow it up."
I hope they just keep building on Mario Kart 8; Add a track-creation tool, and probably open it up to more Nintendo IPs with new tracks and characters, so Metroid, Punch Out, Starfox, Animal Crossing, etc etc.
there wont be a new one until the switch 2 comes out.
nintendo needs their bangers early on
Kudos Next-Level Games. None of the issues associated with multi-platform games and all of the benefits. Could we please be seeing the next Nintendo/Rare partnership? Before that is Microsoft threw money at them only for them to release nothing of note on either Xbox, 360 or (now) Xbox One.
poor kamiya if nintendo let him use nintendo characters for wonderful 101, it could have sold millions and Platinum Games becoming a second party developer.
To be brutally honest, this is what Next Level games needed. If you look at their back catalogue most of their games up until their partnership with Nintendo were so-so at best - they're talented coders but not the best designers so this partnership could produce some real gems.
Wow, there seems to be a lot of devs who really don't mind being attached to Nintendo... I'm gonna go and assume they like the TIME they're given to make games instead of being rushed on a schedule... that's my guess anyway.
Loved Dark Moon. Can't wait to see what these guys bring to the table next.
