I'm pretty sure Eitr is cancelled from what it said on their steam page, I was really looking forward to that one.

thorstein848d ago

This is the year we finally see PS3's Rockstar game: Agent.

Follow that up with the amazing WiLD. Can't wait.

To top it all off, Star Citizen will be complete.

Dude, WiLD fading into vaporware sucked, it was such a "my type of game" i hope it still comes out eventually, but i doubt it

i wonder how well thats gonna work.

darthv7224d ago

mouse aiming should feel very fluid and natural to any PC enthusiast.

UnbreakableAlex24d ago

Because of the new high greedy Nintendo prices, people will play the game on an emulator on the pc or Mac anyway.

gold_drake24d ago

yeh just read about the game prices. ridiculous

I guess no one remembers when some N64 games were $75 and $80 back in 96.

Ps5conehead23d ago

Nintendo is a company to make money. There not a charity.

badz14923d ago

@Jin_Sakai

Keep bringing that up. You are doing a good job. Because N64 was a huge success for Nintendo and they didn't get demolished by the PS1 that gen, right?

I mean ultimately it means you have to play with a flat surface. Great for those people who play games at their desks on computer monitors, less so for those of us who like to sit back on the sofa and play.

But nice that the option is there at least.

The world's most uncomfortable mouse lol

Neonridr24d ago

I've held some pretty uncomfortable mice in my day. I'll have to try it out to see, but I'm sure they've done extensive testing with it. As long as the width is stable enough that it's not gonna tip over everytime you try to move it, then it should be ok. Plus it's a great option for those who prefer mouse style aiming.

--Onilink--24d ago

Also, there is no way there arent already third party options ready for release date where you just pop in the joy con in a more usual mouse shell, but it doesnt necessarily look uncomfortable even without that

Jingsing24d ago (Edited 24d ago )

Yeah, I said the same thing. If the mouse doesn't at least support your hands resting arch position you are in big trouble. I don't see how this would.

Neonridr23d ago

you don't think Nintendo tested this feature? They just decided to slap on an optical sensor and be done with it?

blacktiger24d ago

I been asking this for long time and nintendo is about to make all fps a mouse standard game, I hope

lucasnooker24d ago

It can be played like a real PC shooter when you’ll soon be able to emulate it on an actual PC lol

Jingsing24d ago

As long as they are smart enough to do most of the work first before releasing the emulator and then putting it in a decentralised location and repo.

Ratchet2324d ago

They just copied lenovo go handheld system.

drivxr24d ago (Edited 24d ago )

and Lenovo copied them with detachable controllers?

Jingsing24d ago

Nintendo copied Android gaming tablets that had detachable controllers that the big tech sites laughed at until Nintendo did it (Engadget, Verge etc hypocrisy). and didn't do it any better.

Metroid Prime 4 Looks Great, and We’re Still Debating If It’s a Switch 2 Game

The final Nintendo Switch 1 Direct just gave us our best look yet at Metroid Prime 4: Beyond—and it’s stunning. But here’s the big question: Is this actually a Switch 2 game? Join the NVC crew as they break down the new trailer, analyze Samus’ psychic abilities and the jungle planet Viewros, and debate whether this is a cross-gen release or a last-minute upgrade for Nintendo’s next console.Plus, we’ll discuss why Metroid Prime 4’s long development cycle (and lack of a release date) has us suspicious. Is Nintendo holding it back for the Switch 2? Or is this truly the Switch 1’s final masterpiece?

_SilverHawk_28d ago (Edited 28d ago )

Metroid prime 4 looks so dated and bland. I hate it when fanatics can't be objective because it sends the wrong message about what's good so Nintendo continues down the same wrong path. The short gameplay of metroid I've seen is enough to convince me that the game is rubbish and not worth full price. Im hoping Nintendo doesn't continue with low quality and bland looking games for the switch 2 and only relying on games brand name to sell. The switch 2 is a new generation where it's possible to have very powerful handhelds or midrange handhelds that can handle modern games with very good performance. Switch 2 shouldn't have games that resemble switch 1 games or even have performance issues like switch 1. I've seen a lot of games on ps3 that looks a lot better than metroid prime 4 and the ps3 was released 20 years ago.

Levii_9228d ago

Look i get it Switch is ancient, i hate that fact and i'm so sick of the console and can't wait to get rid of it finally for Switch 2 but you can't deny that this game isn't impressive looking running on such an outdated hardware. We'll find out soon if exclusive Switch 2 games will look just like Switch 1 remasters or something better and more, but judging by that short Mario Kart teaser... ehhhh... hmm i don't know.

_SilverHawk_28d ago (Edited 28d ago )

All i would like from the switch 2 is to be able to run modern games like gta 6, assassins creed shadows cyberpunk and others with performance similar to having medium to high settings on a pc at a stable 30 to 45fps locked and having the ability to buy all previous Nes games from the original to the latest switch without renting. I would also like Nintendo to have Nintendo online to be as good as Xbox live and psn with a proper party system and no silly friend codes

ZycoFox27d ago

It doesn't help that they don't use the latest tech, and then drag it out for 8 years when it should be more like 5-6 tops.. especially being a portable device which gets outdated quicker.

It's not a Switch 2 game it's a Switch 1 game. It will be a cross gen game like BOTW was. Switch 2 version will have better framerate, resolution and texture filtering.

Plagasx27d ago

My thoughts exactly. It'll be on Switch 1.

originaljohn27d ago

I wasn't really excited by the trailer editing and no solid date given but the gameplay looks great and environments look super atmospheric. Retro doing wonders on the Switch again.

badz14927d ago

"it's stunning"

LOL the bar is really REALLY low for Nintendo. Stunning, sure...for 2010!
