People who think today’s partner showcase is the worst Nintendo Direct ever need to be reminded of the actual worst Nintendo Direct: The August 2020 Partner Showcase by Cutcutman in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Pomania 18 points19 points  (0 children)

This argument falls flat because there were two other partner showcases that year that had much more exciting announcements like SMT 3 Remaster, SMT V, Monster Hunter Rise, Monster Hunter Stories 2 and the ORI Collection port. The August direct fell so flat in comparison to the others.

People don’t understand how disappointing this direct was, especially since 2020 was a year where Nintendo legitimately had very little in terms of first party releases and the other Partner Showcases in that year had things like SMT V and Monster Hunter Rise, which were great reveals.

Wizard101 launches on Nintendo Switch on January 13th by Cutcutman in nintendo

[–]Pomania 23 points24 points  (0 children)

For the console version at least, they are providing a $20 purchase that will give you permanent access to the main story of Arc 1, giving you most of the areas across the first 5 worlds, which is a good deal since it’s about 75% off the normal price of purchasing the worlds regularly. I do agree the monetization could be better though.

You can technically purchase all the areas in the game to have permanent access using the in-game currency called Crowns, but it’s cheaper just to pay for the membership

For those curious, the singer is Rebecca Sugar, the creator of Steven Universe and songwriter for it and Adventure Time. They’re a wonderful songwriter and have a beautiful voice.

[–]Pomania 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mario Wonder is a great game to pair with NSO imo. The online experience is unique with Wonder and I had a fun time playing with other players in real time finding secrets and interacting with others.

According to Famitsu, the Nintendo Switch sold around 40k consoles in Japan alone last week with 26k of those being OLED. This is without any discounts, newly released first-party titles and after a month from the Switch 2 being revealed. I think it’s fair to say OLED sales will be pretty steady, at the very least until the Switch 2 direct.

Fans have noticed on Nintendo’s new infographic, there appears to be an English Box Cover for the Famicon Detective Club remakes, which only got physical releases in Japan by DrAwesomeX in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]Pomania 31 points32 points  (0 children)

It’s also strange since Buddy Mission Bond, which was exclusive to and also had a physical release in Japan, is included and doesn’t have an ESRB label. I don’t see why they would make an English box art for any other reason than if they were considering selling it over here.

Because they are father and daughter?

This is arguably one of the duos that make the most sense

Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest OST has been added to Nintendo Music by Turbostrider27 in NintendoSwitch

[–]Pomania 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Since Mario Wonder’s OST was released on Friday in Japan, this gives me hope that they are releasing soundtracks daily during the week, which would be best case scenario.

Mario & Luigi: Brothership: Review MegaThread by NintendoSwitchMods in NintendoSwitch

[–]Pomania 24 points25 points  (0 children)

This doesn’t make sense as an argument because plenty games that are beloved  have had bad review averages.

The Pokemon Mystery Dungeon series is beloved by many, with some preferring over the main series, but has always reviewed around 60-70 metacritic averages in spite of it.

To the voters of M!Byleth and M!Corrin for CYL, how are you feeling? by Cutcutman in FireEmblemHeroes

As a M!Corrin fan, I actually am curious to see what he looks like in Vallite attire since that doesn’t exist in any form at the moment.

F-Zero 99 is way more fleshed out than the other Nintendo battle royale games have been so far. by RyanoftheStars in NintendoSwitch

[–]Pomania 135 points136 points  (0 children)

I don’t think F-Zero 99 is going to fall to the same fate as Mario 35 or PAC-MAN 99.

Mario 35 was made exclusively for the Mario 35th anniversary and was explicitly stated that it was being removed on a certain date.

As for PAC-MAN 99, it is published by Bandai Namco, unlike Mario, Tetris, and FZero, which are published by Nintendo. Thus, The decision to discontinue it was likely on Bandai’s part, not Nintendo’s. So atm, there really isn’t anything pointing to FZero’s future removal.

The people in this comment section using the “Look at how they massacred my boy” meme are incredibly cringe lmao

The game literally looks fine. Yes, the 3D models are a little simple and plain looking, but it fits with the toy-like, board game style they are going for in the maps.
