Rayman Pirate-Community

It's coming up to that time again and with a Rabbids crossover game and possibly Rayman Legends Definitive version making it's way to E3 I felt like starting up this thread now.

I'm not sure how I personally feel about the new Rabbids game but it would certianly be interesting to see how exactly it plays out. As for other expectations i'm on the "Beyond Good & Evil 2 for Switch please" train.

Hmm, are we actually going to get Beyond Good & Evil 2? I'd love to see it happen, but right now I feel a little skeptical.

I think it's gone through another "Michel Ancel has definetely mentioned it recently and Ubi said yes to it" phase- although I also recall articles on it being possibly switch exclusive. But I guess that's why we have E3; to confirm all this speculation or if it's going into the depths of the abyss once again.

This again? I seriously doubt it's Switch exclusive, the man himself stated before it'll be available across all platforms, if I remember correctly.

Chances are they would do a "Legends" on it and try to do exclusivity but then people complained about it so they change their mind.

According to the people who leaked that Mario x Rabbids thing, it'd be a timed Switch exclusive. I don't know what to believe but I think it'd be great if it was a multiplatform game. Though if it was on Switch, that would mean Nintendo paid for it and it'd be harder for Vivendi to cancel it if they succeed in taking over Ubisoft. So I'm all for it either way.

That said I'm most looking forward to Sony's conference, since FFVII remake and KH3 will probably appear there. And other big announcements, since Sony sure likes those, looking at the past 2 years.

I'm slightly excited for Nintendo's new stuff too, since it seems like they might be starting to do good again, but then again, they might not. They're unpredictable like that.

I am actually hoping for something Mega man related, since it will be his 30th anniversary and I'm hoping that we can at least to get some new ports (if anything).
I am also looking foward to seeing some new info about Sonic Forces and the newly revealed character that will carry the 3rd gameplay style.
Not many other expectations other then that, maybe a Shenume 3 release date.

You naïve fool. Megaman has been so neglected that nobody even cared that Capcom forgot his 25th birthday, as opposed to Metroid and Castlevania.

I'd like personnally to hear more about KH3 and I'm still hopeful for a full 3D remake of FF6, Switch exclusive even, but that's probably wishful thinking.

Maybe I am, but one can always hope.
there are also rumors of a second legacy collection being developed that will have megaman 7-10, and while it is nothing major, it will still be an acknowledgment from capcom.

Oh yeah, Megaman Legacy Collection 2. That will certainly give me a chubby...

Give me a full 3D remake of Megaman X centered around dodging-and-shooting with a Splatoon-like gameplay (and camera management). It's not that hard to do.

I personally think you're asking for too much right now, but to be honest we as megaman fans deserve doing that after not seeing a new installment
for such a long time, so I don't blame you either.
Let's firstly get something new from this unmanaged franchise and then start asking about new games.

I'll be watching Ubisoft and Nintendo's conferences like I do every year, though I am hoping for good announcements from Nintendo's side this time.

Ah yes. At least with Nintendo this year we'd be blessed with having no more teasers about what became BotW so we should be seeing some fairly new stuff (Fairly as in I definetely know some old Fire Emblem teaser games as well as Echoes would most likely be here). I think the only thing i'd really like to hear from them is the update on the Animal Crossing mobile game which was supposed to come out last year.

I only really care about what's coming to the Switch this year, hoping on some interesting indies and a-la Puyo Puyo Tetris type titles to come up. Hopefully some ports and virtual console too - I feel like they could easily spice up the library here and if the emulators aren't dogshit I'm really eager to pick up a bunch of old games for on-the-go play.

Also, I'm kinda worried Rabbids + Mario is gonna be the only thing Nintendo itself announces this year, and the rest will just be showing footage and info about Fire Emblem & Xenoblade. That's not a terrible lineup but I feel like you always gotta court E3 with at least one big announcement, and I'd be surprised if they really still don't have anything to tell us about an overdue Animal Crossing everyone wants and would be pretty easy to put together.

Hmm, didn't Ninty book out a substantial amount of floor space for E3 this year? Or was that just a rumour? I'd hope if they did book out so much space, it'd be due to the amount of content they were going to share.

Either ways, I do hope Ninty delivers, they've had a decent start with the Switch, but I think we need to have a little more to make it feel like a more justified investment. Naturally, I'm hoping that we see some proper Metroid this year, heck, I'd take a port of the Prime Trilogy in honesty. I'd love to be able to play that on the go.

Yeah, I feel Breath of the Wild was an excellent start, I'm quite curious to see more of what's to come.

I'm hoping Valve will make an appearance, actually Half-Life 3 is all I'd wish for but that seems like a stretch.
Darksiders 3 was a suprising announcement last week, hopefully its new developers will present something more of that.
Perhaps Lorne Lanning will finally give us some footage of SoulStorm, I'm very much anticipating it, it's a remake of Abe's Exoddus much like New 'N Tasty was of Abe's Oddysee.

What fucking benefit would there be to making that Switch only? I know the game was on the SNES originally but give me a break. I have yet to play it though, despite owning it. Awesome looking game.

Uh huh...

You and every other previous fan of Nintendo should certainly be holding them in high regard this E3 since we now have the release of the Switch. I'm really hoping they don't blow it and introduce us to really lame stuff nobody cares about. Seeing as how the Switch is selling well I want to see some of the big guns pulled out for the Switch.

God I hope more than anything, this turns out to not be true, but I can somewhat see it happening which actually upsets me, but who knows, maybe the game will be good. Seeing the recent state of the Mario rpgs though I'm somewhat doubtful.

Ninty was the only one go lay out the cash for Bayonetta 2. If Square wants fundings to complete this game, only Nintendo will answer the call.

Plus, on french websites it's amazing to see how much salt Sony fanboys are taking since Breath Of The Wild. I don't want that to ever stop

Why are you making up these random ass scenarios? If this is true, its very few and far in between, these people are most certainly a minority (and also Persona 5 is miles better than Breath Of The Wild, and that's on PS4.)
