before you get yourself hyped, many insiders are reporting similar results about a game which will probably require an accessory to play, and that this game "is not the Animal Crossing or Smash Bros you may be expecting"
i am just saying to maybe lower your expectations, i will say that most of the insiders are still in the dark as well it seems, and only have some super vague hints, so this could still be something big.

Neonridr3072d ago

it's definitely not a game, more like an app or something. Possibly something interactive with amiibos or something.

zivtheawesome3072d ago

i believe it's an accessory that is not with the switch, maybe some add on to one of the joy cons i think.

CorndogBurglar3072d ago

I also read that this new interactive experience was "geared towards kids or people who are kids at heart".

I'm not sure this will be anything mind-blowing.

wonderfulmonkeyman3072d ago

It's either mobile-related, accessory-to-a-third-party-gam e-related, or an announcement for a way of playing 3DS games on Switch.
Just my two Rupees.

"3DS games on Switch"

God I hope so.

Brian76554923072d ago

There is no way Nintendo is going to combine 3DS and Switch if both are selling well. Nintendo is all about maximizing revenue and right now both are providing excellent revenue sources for them.

wonderfulmonkeyman3072d ago (Edited 3072d ago )

Normally, I would COMPLETELY AGREE with your sentiment.
However.
I think a lot of people have forgotten that there is actually PRECEDENT for this sort of move.

Do you recall a little device called the "Super Game Boy"?
Because I sure do. I spent literal years playing my GB and GBC games on my SNES, through that device, whenever I was at home.
And it came out despite the SNES and game boy both being super successful.

All I'm saying is that we shouldn't count the possibility out.

Interesting. VR perhaps? Nintendo have some patents for the Switch sliding into a head mounted accesory after all.

Double_O_Revan3072d ago

It's more likely to be them bringing back the Heart Rate Monitor accessory than VR.

deafdani3072d ago

Anything is possible. Anyway, not long left now. We'll find out soon :)

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle48d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments
