Nintendo: Pokemon Switch and Prime 4 will be 2018 titles

>>381378203
I would hope Metroid isn't rushed then.

Nope

>No change in what we announced last week, which is that those two games are coming, but they have no specifically announced release window/year.

>>381378203
I'm predicting Fire Emblem, Pokemon, Prime 4, Pikmin 4, and Smash 4 DX to be the biggest titles of Nintendo's 2018, with Retro New IP coming in 2019.

>>381378365
Tanabe talked about his plans for Prime 4 in 2015 so if it was started then and releases next year it was worked on for 3 years

And everyone will be too busy with better games like Monster Hunter World.

>show us nothing but a title card
>"it might not be rushed"

We got the first glimpse of BotW YEARS ago, and the temples still feel like they were made over the weekend.

>Too busy for Pokemon

>>381378690
You realize that last year Sun and Moon got revealed and we only got a logo right? It went on to release that same year

Just cause they only showed a title card and doesnt mean development has literally begun. Now to mention Tanabe has been talking about the next prime since 2015

Confirmed to be

>During a Skype conversation in May 2017, I was made aware of a supposed Metroid home console game, seemingly for the Switch. The game, of course, was confirmed at Nintendo’s E3 Spotlight. A few details of the Skype call.

>My source was not aware of ‘Metroid: Samus Returns’ on 3DS, suggesting the game is handled by a completely different team with few, if any, overlapping members
>Prototypes and concepts go back to “what must be early 2015, they’ve been trying to figure out what to do with Metroid for a while”
>Metroid Prime 4 was added to the E3 spotlight “pretty late in the game” and my source stressed “this information was made known to me earlier in the week”
>Nintendo considers the early reveal of “Zelda for WiiU” to be a mistake, and opted for a short teaser for Metroid Prime 4
>Development is beyond the concept stages, a gameplay teaser “could have been possible for E3, if E3 were held just a week later”
>Early concepts included a take at the “cinematic experience” genre, supposedly “a bit like Uncharted or The Last of Us, very heavy on cutscenes and motion capture”
>The concept and development was locked in to the Metroid Prime 4 formula after the negative reception to “Metroid Prime: Federation Force”
>The current game plan is described as “the same, but different” by my source

Sure, but BotW was "shown" at e3 in 2014.
It's only on the switch, so they either dumped the WiiU prototype or they've only really started recently.

Maybe I'm just paranoid, but I'll stay worried until I actually see something concrete.

>>381378203
No shit.

>>381380015
I have faith in Nintendo, but it's good to be paranoid in this instance. We haven't gotten a Prime game in 10 years, so they hopefully won't fuck this.

Replacement console in 2018 confirmed. Lol at switch knobgobblers getting shafted even harder than Wii U retards.

Yes. As they fucking should.

>>381378479
It's damage control. They say this in case of delays. 2018 is obviously the target year but anything can happen. Remember Diamond and Pearl?

>>381378203
haven't had a nintendo console since n64. is the switch worth it?

Pokemon I can see.

Prime 4? Hell no.
