I can play Rocket league with my friends on any console 😍 Unify their 2 divisions into one is the best thing Nintendo has done, Switch is the ultimate Nintendo. Owning a Wiiu and 3DS is stupid compared to just owning a Switch.
@Eddie Nintendo seems like the are the path to phase out the handheld sector. I wonder if Bravely Default will make the leap for the 3rd game. Either way the more games we ALL can enjoy, the faster we can have civil discussions.
Nintendo is set to win E3 just for Metroid Prime 4
Mario Odyssey looks great Xenoblade Chronicles 2 this year IN THE WEST it's already dubbed new 2D classic Metroid for the 3DS (hope it's on the Switch also)
@newmonday and Pokémon. For me I was hyped for the Xbox conference and I did enjoy it but there were not many I want games but Nintendo wow they really pulled it out the bag. The switch could turn out to be the best console Nintendo have made just from what we will see in its 1st 18 months on the market.
A few new 2018 games ( 1 kirby and 1 yoshi game). Metroid 4 confirmed in development. Pokemon rpg in development, but at least 2 years until release. Xenoblade 2 confirmed for fall. Mario confirmed for October. Then a few others we already know about.
@sd11 Ok, that's for the info. I'm going to watch it now. Only thing I had saw was Mario Odyssey, which still looks incredible and Mario+Rabbid Kingdom Battle. Both are must have games to me.
What surprises are the competition releasing this year?
Servbot41, I'll repeat my question. What surprises are the competition releasing this year?
If you're a Switch owner you'll get Xenoblade Chronicles 2 this year, when people expected it next year, Fire Emblem Warriors, Super Mario is releasing within the next four months and there's the Mario and Rabbids game which looks great.
Vs games we already knew about which won't be coming anytime soon.
As soon as I saw the camera panning through space I was like "OH SHIT! IT CAN'T BE METROID CAN IT?!?!"
Then the four showed up and they took their sweet-ass time revealing Metroid Prime so I was all like "My god . . . It has to be, they can't screw this up."
And then Metroid Prime popped up and the world was a better place.
For such a short teaser they really managed to play with our emotions.
I wish we got to see more games announce bit Mario looks good, cross play with rocket league is awesome and Pokemon and metriod game announce is great. I just wish we got to see some video on those.
I mean, take out third parties and they had about as much as anyone else. Sony had the most if you count VR. Not counting VR, Pokemon, or Metroid (which we barely saw) and Nintendo and Sony were tied.
Mainline Pokemon game and Metroid Prime 4 are two major announcements that have me very excited. I'm also hyped for portable Rocket League. Mario Odyssey gameplay looks great. The Yoshi game looks like a fun platformer. Same with Kirby. I'll probably get Fire Emblem Warriors because I love Dynasty Warriors.
With Microsoft and Nintendo allowing crossplay, if CoD came to Switch and allowed crossplay, that would be fantastic news. Probably not going to happen but that would be big if it did.
Nintendo is my favorite this year. Loved the games that were shown, and i cannot wait for a proper Pokemon and Metroid Prime 4 on the Switch. Those 2 games will continue to sellout Switch consoles when they release.
Yep. They usually have Xenoblade chronicles and a new 3d Mario game, and metroid prime. It hasn't been several years since any of these were on a console. /s
Nintendo will obviously have exclusives considering they have a 11-13 year lead on MS and Sony but the console is underwhelming, and too gimmicky. After the PS2 I think the Playstation has surpassed the Nintendo as the best gaming platform. For the last couple of gens Nintendo has shipped a limited # of consoles to increase customer demand. Nintendo knows that once ppl have a Switch, they'll get bored easily! I expect Mario and Zelda, and Pokémon to be good games year in and year out but eventually we grow up and no matter how good a Mario game is, you just outgrow it! I mean what is this, the 27th Mario game since the launch of the Nintendo? Geez!!!!!!
SM Odyssey looks Wonderful!And there still fanboys saying that Mario games are always the same reash,lame people that dont acknowledge the art of develop games,Fun Fun its the obvious awnser shock-awe.
I imagine they'll save it for a Direct when it's within a couple of months of release. Most of their Wii U games will most likely be ported to the Switch. Doesn't make sense not to. I'm hoping for a HD Director's Cut of Skyward Sword personally.
Okay, now the mystery of Scorpio has been resolved, I am happy to see these awesome looking Nintendo titles drop. Looks like it will be Switch over Scorpio for me.
For me Nintendo "won" e3, but barely (Nintendo>Sony>MS>Ubi >EA=Bethesda is my personal opinion on how things went).
To think they basically announced or showed a new game for every month leading into the new year and several 2018 games as well all in a 25 minute video was insane. Even without showing Pokémon and Metroid but simply confirming them struck a cord with me. Something else shown would had been better, but now we know they're coming.
Those 2 games are huge and although we didn't see any of them, I think they're serious games that people will be considering for quite some time. Not just consumers either.
It's almost like telling third parties "here we are, come join us" as they have huge followings that could cement the Switch as a potential success if they're as good as they're predecessors. Pokémon though? A core game on tv for the first time? Plus on the go? If it doesn't get publishers seriously thinking "maybe we should make something for the Switch now" then nothing will. It won't somehow make the Switch powerful enough to run some of their games but they might look into something exclusive or at least able to run on it now.
It doesn't mean Switch's success will be a walk in the park, but it's almost guaranteed it's well on the way to going back to how things should be and it won't be another Wii U scenario for Nintendo for sure if they can keep up that kind of momentum.
I still want to see more third party support though, and think this e3 made it that much more likely we will actually see some later on down the road.
Plus both Mario games look great. A Mario Rabbids had me worried a little (or at least apprehensive) but this one looks better than I could ever have hoped for.
Regardless of the third party situation... Mario makes knack 2 and that MS fox game seem embarrassing by comparison. But logo reveals are weak sauce. Retro aren't even making prime 4 so you have no idea what that game will be like.
Super Mario Odyssey looks absolutely amazing.
when mario odyssey comes out is when ill get a switch
Nintendo won E3 for me.
Nintendo > Ubisoft > Devolver > MS > Sony > Bethesda > EA
Metroid 4 + Pokemon for Switch confirmed.
Well played Nintendo.
lol, that Metroid 4 trailer was amazing!
