Another nail in the coffin for the fabled Switch Pro if you ask me. A Zelda Switch will probably be announced next.

Jeriphro1935d ago

I agree, but I cannot be too mad. This Monster Hunter Rise console looks awesome!

Yes, this is a new MH.

Neonridr1934d ago

I mean there's nothing wrong with special edition consoles, they happen all the time. Especially in Japan.

ZeekQuattro1934d ago

Never said there was anything wrong with them. My problem is people keep talking about what sounds more like a Switch successor instead of a New Switch. Its like Nintendo struggling to produce enough Switch's for most of 2020 is long forgotten. When Rise was announced Pro rumored heated up even more only for it to culminate in another Switch V2 color variant. Mario is also getting one after it was delayed into this year. The Switch also shows no signs of slowing down so I don't see Nintendo trying to put out a whole new Switch to combat slumping sales. But hey if one comes out I'll gladly buy it and retire my launch Switch. I just don't see it happening.

How is that a nail in the coffin? It’s literally a special edition console, nothing more. Every major console maker ships these out for near every big game that comes out on that console

Zhipp1934d ago

There was even a special edition Cyberpunk Xbox One X just before the Series X launched. I don't think this proves anything one way or the other.

Zelda Switch would be a great way to celebrate the anniversary year of Zelda.

ZeekQuattro1934d ago

I expect an even bigger celebration for Zelda. Nintendo has pushed LOZ more and more these last few years.

Would be worth collecting it looks pretty good I have never played a Monster Hunter game before

GameBoyColor1934d ago

Oh man it looks good. I can't justify getting this when my v1 switch still works though lol. I'll just save for the inevitable upgraded version.

Jurat1934d ago

The Rise demo runs surprisingly well on my launch Switch. Looking forward to release.

Rise was on sale and wilds had performance issues. I think it speaks volumes to what consumers want.

StoneTitan285d ago

Not just performance issues. Game issues in general

repsahj285d ago

I just forced myself to platinum MHW because I was so bored with its gameplay already. Its map is fixed, so you just do the same thing over and over again in each mission. It's not like HD2, where even after a year, we still don't get bored playing because the experience is different in each mission.
