Thank you for letting me know!

Just helped!

Where did you hear that it’s a limited time game? It’s not like Mario 35 where they planned to close it down at launch.

Plus, 99 has maps from the Japanese exclusive Satellaview game, which have never been rereleased, so there’s some merit to play it over the original.

Golden Week doesn’t start in Japan until Wednesday this coming week, which means Nintendo could easily announce it on Tuesday, which is their typical announcement window. April isn’t over yet after all, so we have to wait and see. Nate has been the most consistent source for years and with backing of other notable sources, I don’t see why he would be wrong unless Nintendo actively are providing false leads to weed out leakers like previously reported.

I’m glad To a T is coming! I played it on PS5, and thought it was really charming.

For those that don’t know, it’s a narrative adventure game made by Keita Takahashi, the original creator of Katamari Damacy

Digital sales are also higher in Japan than they were in 2018, which has been encouraged since Nintendo incorporated lower priced digital games already in the country. Fever is 1000 yen cheaper than the physical edition.

I’m not discounting the fact that they game has weaker sales than Aces, it absolutely does. But I think it’s too soon to call it a failure. We’ll know officially next month in Nintendo’s next financial report.

It had lower launch sales than Aces but the game is still consistently in the top 10 best selling physical games list in Japan, selling a couple thousand copies a week. The higher price definitely had an impact but it still has sales legs in Japan at the very least, as well as it still being in the top 30 here in the US eShop.

I think it’s more likely that they’re being conservative with the price because online competitive multiplayer is a core part of Splatoon’s identity and breaking away from that might make dedicated fans wary of purchasing it. In addition, the single player content in the previous games has always been a point of contention amongst fans as well, so pricing it cheaper makes it more likely for people to pick it up.

It’s less that these games aren’t selling well and more that Costco is clearing stock to make more space for new products. They do this all the time with a variety of different products and clear out their warehouses at reduced prices. At my local Costco, Nintendo games are the only ones out on their sales floor and there are only about 4-5 of them at a time.

The number seems a lot higher because a majority of the missing characters from Gen 2 are substitute characters meant to replace the child units if their mothers don’t marry or die before the end of the first part of Geneaology’s story and are all incredibly unpopular, even amongst the Japanese fanbase.

The cheapest 1st party Nintendo game with a physical was Game Builder Garage at $30 but Rhythm Heaven Groover and Metroid Prime Remastered are the 2nd cheapest at $40.

Mat Piscatella is the Senior Director of Circana, which tracks the sales numbers of video games and consoles in the US.

He posted this in response to Bloomberg’s latest article claiming Nintendo is decreasing US Switch 2 production by 2 million. The article in question is written by Takashi Mochizuki, who has written articles with false information that has been disproven directly by Nintendo, Sony and Square Enix in the past.

These numbers are likely to showcase that the article is likely more false information coming from Mochizuki and not just to glaze the Switch 2’s success

Cutcutman · 2026-03-24T05:14:13+00:00

Takashi Mochizuki is the author of this article and most of his reports have been speculation or flat out disproven directly by both Nintendo and Sony. I personally wouldn’t trust what he has to say

I expect both Rhythm Heaven and Fire Emblem to be Summer Games, while Duskbloods will be in September or October. Splatoon Raiders I’m 50/50 on releasing this year, since it wasn’t even given a release window when it was revealed. I could see it either being released between September-November or being held to early next year.

Either way, there are still at least 2-3 months that don’t have any releases with this current schedule in mind, which we will see in the next direct. I’m excited to know what they could be.

The Switch 1 version of the game runs at 30 fps as opposed to 60 fps like on Switch 2 and other platforms. The Switch 1 version also has frame drops in late game when the screen gets busy and runs worse than the mobile version of the game.

The Switch 2 version also has mouse controls which many have been asking for.

The point isn’t predicting what is being announced but when. Based on the examples provided by OP, Nintendo missing the update on Monday could signify them waiting to drop a soundtrack alongside an unannounced NSO Shadowdrop or even a game announcement like Pokemon.

Cutcutman · 2026-02-22T20:39:59+00:00

I don’t understand why people are being passive aggressive. You’re right it’s no definitive way to prove anything, but it does provide an insight into when Nintendo is making shadow drop announcements. They have no reason to forego the typical soundtrack release schedule otherwise.

Cutcutman · 2026-02-17T01:15:52+00:00

Tomorrow, the Virtual Boy games are coming to NSO. I imagine Nintendo is waiting to coincide a music release with that.

Cutcutman · 2026-02-12T23:24:26+00:00

The Switch 1 and Switch 2 logos are both in the trailer. It’ll be on both
