Basically everybody who's anybody in the game leaking scene says today Nintendo plans to shadowdrop a Switch 2 reveal, the 16th has been a consistent date thrown around for a little while now. No games, no software, just a console reveal. This is following huge Switch 2 leaks, up to and including actual photos of the console. It's not anything interesting, it looks like a bigger Switch with the words "Nintendo Switch 2" on the back. This is a heavily cropped photo of an actual unit somebody has, they've posted better ones since but I don't want to go digging for them.

>>1065759 >ALL of the roster is back again >Art style is pretty similar to Ultimate but with improved lighting and more expressive characters and facial animations >Adventure mode is like SSBU’s world map and Spirit fights >More third parties They haven't learned a damn thing!
>>1065530 But it might be a Chinanon
>>1065759 Smash leak sounds fake, not trusting a random anon on 4cuck
>>1065759 that's faker than a half yen coin

>>1065818 >a half yen coin You mean a 50 Sen coin?
>>1065759 It's just a random post. Summer 2026 seems a bit too late for what I'm expecting, and I just don't see Sol coming, not when Nintendo could easily get someone people care about like MK Scorpion (or Raiden/Liu Kang) instead. I can believe in Smash 6 having stuff like character redesigns and moveset changes to many characters, but those weren't exactly hard to guess, Nintendo likes to use the latest designs and the companies they get the characters from also would benefit from that sort of thing.
>>1065839 oh... well then, faker than a half sen coin, those can't be, right?, also how long have those been out of circulation?, because they re out of circulation, right?

>>1065870 >well then, faker than a half sen coin, those can't be, right? Those did exist, later replaced by the 5 Rin coin. >also how long have those been out of circulation?, because they re out of circulation, right? Yes, they are. The Rin and the Sen were retired in 1953, mostly due to the Yen hyper-inflating after the war.
>>1065901 oh wow, you learn something new every day, nice & thank you for your replies
>>1065759 >Non starter Pokemon >Toon Zelda >Sol Badguy no chance of happening

>>1065527 >>1065801 Just someone who does enjoy Japanese imports
>>1065926 I could believe the Armarouge/Ceruledge thing since they're pretty popular in Japan as a duo and used a lot in various spinoffs and promotional media. Sol Badguy is what makes the leaks sound fake. Guilty gear took a nosedive in popularity in Japan with Strive and outside of FGC faggots the game isn't very popular. If you were going to put in any other fighting game character a Mortal Kombat character would make more sense since that's the last of the three big normalfaggot fighting games that's not represented. >>1065940 How was the Uma Musume Mario Party clone? Or did you just buy it for lulz?
>>1065926 Toon Zelda would have an Echoes of Wisdom moveset, allowing regular Zelda to retain her moves. I could see it adding flavor to the game. There are plenty of non-starter Pokémon. In fact, the only starters are from Gen 1. What are you talking about? My best friend, who loves Guilty Gear passionately (and hates the politics of Strive) doesn't believe Sol Badguy for a second. But he's a massive pessimist. >>1066008 Original GG is on Switch, though, alongside Strive. Is Minecraft really popular enough in Japan to have included Steve? Apparently. Is Halo popular in Japan; that's the real question. John Halo being added is the "obvious" choice if Switch 2 MCC is actually real, but can it otherwise be justified? Hell, didn't they try to get fucking James Bond in original Smash–simply because GoldenEye was so popular–before being forced to abandon it due to copyright? Clearly they tried since the motion-sensor bomb is 1:1 from GoldenEye.
>>1065940 >Densha da GO Have you played it? Do you have the Switch train controller for it?
>>1066036 Pretty sure the mcc is being swept under the rug, they basically killed any ambitions when people said no to paid battle passes.
>>1065901 Isn't that the Toyotomi mon on that coin? >>1066008 >Guilty gear took a nosedive in popularity in Japan with Strive and outside of FGC faggots the game isn't very popular. Did Strive really tank the series that badly? I figured most of the negative sentiments were just from us shitlords on imageboards and the like. That's good to here if so. Maybe there'll be a chance to turn the series around, or at least let it rest in peace.

>>1066008 >How was the Uma Musume Mario Party clone? Or did you just buy it for lulz? It's just 4 mini-games (dodgeball, eating contest, basketball, racing with obstacles), plus a retro shooting title that can be unlocked pretty quick, with a story mode and nothing much beyond that. Unfortunately the post-release DLC character packs don't even add new story chapters for character interactions. It's mainly for people into the Uma Musume franchise with the extra incentive of the download code for the mobile game granting items especially the rainbow gem as it's otherwise not exactly worth the asking price of ~4800 yen. >>1066048 >Have you played it? Do you have the Switch train controller for it? Yes and I also own the brake controller from Yuiki imported from Japan a few years back https://www.amazon.co.jp/-/en/dp/B097SSK4NC For people unfamiliar with the franchise, it's definitively an arcade game where each stage consists of a series of stops on a line and you get a score depending of your proficiency (clearing within time, stopping exactly where you're supposed to, braking smoothly, dimming your lights on oncoming trains while not forgetting to put them back on, pressing X to signal you're paying attention to speed limits, etc.). While JP-only, the nature of the game makes it the language barrier rather low outside of some specific objectives but there are fan-guides online if you ever need some help. >>1066036 Speaking of the Guilty Gear Strive port on Switch, it does look pretty impressive from a technical point, showing once again that the hybrid console does have more power than what people (and third-party devs) usually credit it for https://youtu.be/mhsVRhgfq0s

Which is why I'm fairly confident that visual differences between the Switch 2 and game versions of other platforms will become much harder to spot on in the future
I'm still regretful we never got something like this. I wish Nintendo would just do something fun every once in a while.
>>1066620 A limited edition of that would sell, but nobody wants to play Virtual Boy games.
>>1066623 Wario Land was a good VB game. The Nintendo Museum in Japan actually has a playable Virtual Boy station that's emulated on Switch, Nintendo streamed a Direct for the Nintendo Museum 5 months ago to 1.5M people. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JApUMBscKOc

>>106662 While looking up the Nintendo Museum Direct I noticed, in the side videos, Nintendo had a roughly 10 minute Super Nintendo World Direct for Donkey Kong Country at Universal Studios Japan on 11.11.2024, which I missed. Most of the fun Nintendo does is their games but beside that, the Donkey Kong Country of Super Nintendo World looks like recent fun. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F8OtALOr8JI

>>1066620 They put VB games on the 3DS eShop, you know.
Chances of the miiverse coming back? The wii u had so much fucking soul bros...
>>1065940 I'm not Japanese, what games are these? >>1066036 I want Toon Zelda with an Echoes of Wisdom moveset too. Minecraft Steve proves Toon Zelda with an Echoes of Wisdom moveset can work. >>1066625 Toadstool Cafe, the restaurant at Super Nintendo World, has soul. >>1067986 A little Miiverse is in Mario Maker 2 and Switch Splatoons, probably Miiverse won't but Splatoon 4 and Mario Maker 3 get Miiverses.

>>1067986 I just want Mii creation to have Miitopia's design system as the fucking BASELINE of what's possible.
>>1067998 >I'm not Japanese, what games are these? Earth Defense Force 4.1 (don't think this one needs introduction, otherwise it's an arcade shooter with giant bugs by the hundreds and big alien robots) Densha de Go! Hashirou Yamanote Sen (explained above) Shin Hayarigami 1&2 (Horror detective VNs where you solve murder cases based on Japanese urban legends, with blueboards to complete, lot of choice prompts and many bad endings) Uma Musume Pretty Derby - Nekketsu Hachamecha dai Kansha-Sai (explained above) Yobarai Detective Miasma Breaker (action shooter featuring an office lady and her spirit animal buddies) I would say my Switch game library is ~90% made up of third-parties and no doubt bigger than my decade-and-half old Steam account.
>>1066623 Wario Land and Jack Bros are fantastic virtual boy games, and they play very well on a modded n3ds
>>1068126 That fat faggot just followed the same steps as his lover: MundaneMatt, peak fence-sitting decay. >>1068132 And the robot boxing was good too, hell bring Mario Clash too it's a nice time killer figuring out how its perspective works when throwing shit at enemies.
>>1061543 but anon if you dont buy it when a real fan should (first year of release) then you cant pirate on it just look at switch 1. all real fans can pirate on their systems but the posers who bought late cant.
>>1061582 xbox backwards compatibility is a lie. all it does is downloads the digital version I really wanted to play burnout paradise 1.0 but I cant as the game's latest version without dlc will be downloaded and the disc is just a drm function, not actual plug and play.
>>1077886 Switch 1 had a pre-documented exploit that Nvidia forgot to disable with the first batch of Switch models, I sincerely doubt something similar will happen on the new console. Again in my case, buying a Switch 2 around launch will mainly depend of how it handles backwards-compatibility (making some of the games I have more stable in framerate even if the caps remain) and whatever game comes out in the first year.
>>1077886 >>1077889 Wonderful, you bump a dead thread with random bullshit, thank you for your service
>>1064462 Man, I wish I could too. Those were the best days ever. I even made some cool online friends who I admittedly have lost contact with in the intervening years.
