Finally

Edit: hmm I just realized red dead announcement is tomorrow too, 1 hour after.

Let it begin

I do find it odd that out of all the days this month and all the time Nintendo have had to announce the thing they pick the day where Rockstar are showing off the Red Dead Redemption 2 trailer...not just an average game aswell.

Nitrowolf22743d ago (Edited 2743d ago )

I feel it's not just a coincidence, and if it does turn out being one that would be a surprise to me lol.

I have a feeling it'll be on the nx with an official name, which is why Rockstar didn't just outright say it's coming to it in the teaser.

Guess we'll see tomorrow

@below

Could just be a NDA thing though, or rather Nintendo doesn't want devs using the nx name anymore nor of course have any leaks on it.
I mean Rockstar does need to hype their announcements to
@lawson72

It's gonna be a 3 minute video from Nintendo, confirmed on twitter

-Foxtrot2743d ago (Edited 2743d ago )

See I was thinking that but other games have already said it's coming to the NX so I don't see why they didn't just say so in the announcment. I mean they could have waited for the official name but that's something that can be easily changed in a picture.

LAWSON722743d ago (Edited 2743d ago )

Yeah and it is just Nintendo and Mario, which have only been iconic since the 80s.

Personally I think there maybe something happening between the two, imagine Nintendo announce third party love again (BS last time), what better way to persuade people than with a big multiplat like RDR2 taking advantage of the HW. I am being optimistic because I am a fan of Nintendo and want nothing but greatness from them. Odds are it will be a red background for 30 seconds saying NX march release, details x/x/17

NukaCola2743d ago

Can't wait for this. So the anxiety of finding out if Nintendo is back can be over and we can calm down because the fact this system seems so underwraps is really getting my nergasm juices flowing. lol

-Foxtrot2743d ago

Guess we'll see then :)

@LAWSON72

Rockstar? Nintendo? Third Party Deal? I doubt it. They can't even hold a deal with Sony over the Agent thing, god knows if they got their money back or not after they paid for L.A Noire to be an exclusive.

Plus there is no way Rockstar would p*** off their biggest customers.

You think Nintendo would plan this thing to be announced on the same day some cowboy open world game gets announced just to spite Rockstar? Their newest console for just one game seriously?

Or you meant that red dead is coming to the console in that case i dont really think so

The rumour that leaked the trailer tomorrow also leaked that 3 devs are waiting on the name reveal.

"Nintendo Switch is powered by the performance of the custom Tegra processor. The high-efficiency scalable processor includes an NVIDIA GPU based on the same architecture as the world’s top-performing GeForce gaming graphics cards." https://blogs.nvidia.com/bl...

"scalable processor" GTX 1080 external GPU for Nintendo Switch?

Big_Game_Hunters2742d ago

@4get,
could be possible. They could sell Nintendo branded, Nvdia made custom add ons

Summons752743d ago

The internet is going to implode between 10-12 tomorrow.

deafdani2743d ago

Yeah, I need to get all my morning work shit done by 10 am, otherwise I'm not doing anything. Lol.

conanlifts2743d ago

What if the nx has a random feature that allows you to stream games from any other device!

2600Thunder2743d ago (Edited 2743d ago )

A lot of publishers have been publicly stating how excited they are to work with Nintendo, which yes is only PR, but this still means support and it isn't entirely unrealistic that Rockstar joins others and drops their games on it - especially if this system is near spec with current gen systems.

I know I am preaching to the choir here. If anyone needs 3rd parties, it's Nintendo and they may be handling this finally. It's how they annihilated SMS and sold over Genesis. Then Sony had Nintendo's 3rd parties ready to go then Nintendo pulled out of the Snes-CD deal last minute (as we all know) and Sony decided to go forward anyway with what dominated the industry as the PS1 - which had nearly all top 3rd parties and beat Saturn. Then Sony did it again over Dreamcast using 3rd party support with PS2; I get tears thinking about that loss. I know when I was kid, the system with 3rd parties won. I think we ALL have those consoles btw and we all love each equally. Anyways, Rockstar would be BIG success to have.

However, I am CAUTIOUSLY optimistic, so if I do pick it up, it will be for their exclusives anyway, which I highly enjoyed on Wii U. The beginning of this gen would have been unbearable without my Wii U because we had a huge drought at the start.

having mario there is a great start

Clown_Syndr0me2743d ago

Is it though? I can't be the only one bored to death of Mario. Sure the games are great but Nintendo need to do something special in order to win people back over, and showing us more Mario isn't going to get anyone excited.
I think we need to see something new and fresh, or just a full on Pokemon RPG!

EddieNX 2743d ago

@ clown syndrome. If its a game like Mario galaxy 1 or 2 or like 3d land or 3d world. Replace the word boring with AMAZING.

ChrisW2743d ago

One really good thing that I'm hoping from Nintendo is to release, for free, a small portion of their NES and SNES library... They would do this if they really, really, really, really want to sell more units than a typical Nintendo launch.

InTheZoneAC2743d ago

seeing how they sold us the same VC game on wii, wii u, and 3ds it shouldn't hurt them to release some free VC games on the NX, especially if they're "trophy" and/or online enabled. Surely the NX is going to have a trophy system - probably called Stars(bronze, silver, gold, diamond tiers) and what better way that to enable an online setup for 2-4 player VC games. They need to do everything they can to entice people now.

Scatpants2742d ago

It should be the full NES library and SNES best ofs. That would be a great selling point, but you know they're too greedy to do that.

Blu3_Berry2743d ago

It's about damn time. I hope we see a small look at the system itself along with the Mario game they been working on. That will make me happy.

Now, I wonder what will get more attention. The NX reveal or Red Dead Redemption 2 trailer? Should be interesting.
