I was expecting it last year actually, no way they're gonna pass on Paper Mario for a whole console. I just hope they get it right - I get that they probably wanna make Paper Mario something new so it isn't just Mario & Luigi with different visuals, but, I really think everyone would be fine with just the classic gameplay lol. Or at least replace it with something equally complex and interesting. Just not fucking stickers ok.

But anyway, when is the NX rumoured to come out? Because I feel like if they're actually gonna push it out by the end of this year there'd have to be some discussion on what console gets what games. If it's true, then I can imagine that they might actually move titles like Animal Crossing into NX launch games. But I really hope they don't drop the Wii U that quick.

So Splatoon just received its last bit of content. Darn, I was really hoping for playable Octolings.

If this rumor turns out to be true, let us pray that Ninty learned their lesson since the disaster that was Sticker Star.
I did hear there was an improvement in Paper Jam Bros.. I only played the first two, which are fantastic. Should try SPM if I ever have the chance.

Paper Jam Bros can't really be compared to Sticker Star because it was not even made by same company and it is more of a M&L game than Paper Mario game (plus same company behind M&L games made that one).

New glass half full or half empty: "We still don't know much about Color Splash, give it time" vs. "Sticker Star 2"

I don't care about Paper Mario. I shall enjoy both PM and Metroid fanatics' salts with my fries.

I guess it really is too early to judge and the game still looks very beta-ish but

>recycled power-up is treated like a cool feature to show off
>no leveling up
>bad story
>generic characters
>stickers
>"you get to flick it across the gamepad, fun right?! :^)"

i dunno though, they might take note now and change it up, there's good time left and it's definitely not finished.

Emphasizing the word fanatic. I can understand some of the complaints PM fans have, but the fanatics typing "FUCK YOU NINTENDO YOU RUINED MY LIFE" in the YT comments is hilarious.

Also, I don't play RPGs. They bore me.

Supposedly this is a leaked photo of the Nintendo NX controller:

Of course, this could be fake, but it does seem to match concept images in a patent Nintendo made last year, and in my opinion, if this is real, Nintendo needs to get their shit together because to me this looks atrocious.
But thats just me, someone who hates touchscreen controls with a passion, and for good reason. At least there are Nubs for movement, and supposedly shoulder buttons, but the idea of every game needing to use touchscreen buttons just doesn't sound all that great to me.

Apparently the "footage" seen on this NX controller (with that I mean those Stones-Structures) is of a Unreal Engine 4 Tech Demo from 2014.
Around 0:07 you can see those structures.

Just wanted to point that out.

I think its safe to say its fake. Now I wonder what controller was actually used for it. Probably something from China lol.

This doesn't necessarily prove it is fake, but it is questionable as to why there would be button inputs on the screen for a non interactive demo.
I suppose that even if this is fake, the patents that showed a very simmilar design to this probably are real,and if Nintendo are sticking to that, then the final design could look very simmilar to this and that scares me, but we'll just have to wait and see.
