nintendo

dead franchise

we missed a Nintendo Direct

I think this is a banana-cream and dorito hotdog

area also confirmed to be in Florida's Nintendo park when it opens next year

Is it bad id want this for the mug alone

Yes it's fucking horrible fuck you

what are the chances they ever make a new mainline donkey kong game?

@Spooky Phijkchu we need your guess

sooner or later than Kirby

isn't there one coming next month

well, that' a remaster

nvm

unless I am completely forgetting something, the switch only has donkey kong remakes

even mario vs donkey kong is a remake

wait, is the remake next month a remake of the 3DS remake

When even was the last new mainline DK

Pika no shit, I'm on the wikipedia

I can't figure it out

was it the wii one that got remade on the 3DS that is now being remastered

I think it was

think it was tropical freeze

I guess 2014 then

for Trop[ical freeze

yeah you are right

tropical freeze then before that 2010 for the remaster

which means there have been 2 donkey kong games in almost 15 years

honestly, 3 games since 2004

3 in 20 YEARS

is crazy

they're doing a DK movie aren't they

5 kirby games in the same time

not counting the like 10 spin offs and 5 remakes

since 2010 not 2004

I feel like DK could use a rethink, I don't want it to go 3D

its been 20 years since the last mainline F-Zero game

and that got 99 recently

I think they could make a less buggy DK 64

and it would do well

give me a buggy version and I'll try it

anyway, original question I think we get a DK spin-off on the Switch 2 in year 1, next mainline game 2027

DK does seem like a good 2 year into the console lifespan hype game during a direct

its not a good launch series

that is going to be the new 3D mario

we're going to get a Mario Wonder++ DLC thing imo

and that'll be the only launch year 2D platformer

Wonder DLC is possible, but they are for sure cooking the new 3D mario

oh 100%

Its been so long since odyssey, and that did not even get DLC

no paid DLC at least

the Mario Party release time is also weird to me, feels like they should have held that for Switch 2

I think they wanted to get as many final switch console sales before releasing the same console

since they can double dip

yes, games are cross-platform

but it's still less hype

Honestly, they already released the best mario game since mario party 5

I don't think it matters when the released it

I heard the new one is good

damn

I still don't think I care, and will enevitably just get the next one after it though

I agree with Polu that motion control gating minigames is still bad

and the non-board MP modes are all gimicky

Mario party is a good "everyone gets it and we play 20-30 games of it" game

I just really don't know if I'm getting a Switch 2

You promised you'd get one when Kirby drops 1 year into its lifespan

as recompense

I just resent the lack of performance for 1st party games

emuation will always be the way to go

I do not bother emulating modern consoles, too much effort

not to take anything for granted, since it's a lot of work on the internet autists

now that nintendo owns both switch emulators, they are official nintendo software 👍

Honestly, that should've been Nintendo's powermove

I don't think I understand the pov Pika, but I'm not trying to change your mind on that

release an emulator thats super locked down and you can play like 3 things

Links Awakening was the last Switch game I bought I think

and since I've just emulated the stuff I wanted to try
