Social The Social Thread 3 - Switch 2 launches June

[Knight Dude]

Alright, need someone to rip the TMNT sprites and the Cosmic Invasion sprites, cause that's a Mugen Pack just waiting to be made. I think the only one I saw before hand was April, cause the Brothers tend to get Turtles in Time or Tournament Fighters sprites used for Mugen.

Jeff Grubb really got people's hopes up for Silksong. Tragic.

He might've literally been talking about Cosmic Invasion since TMNT did well, and it's 3rd party. Not sure if the average twitter user would shoot for Patapon like that, but maybe?

Imagine waking up to your Nintendo Alarmo, reading the Nintendo News while eating breakfast and listening to Nintendo Music when going to buy the Switch 2.

this is so epic, alexa play game over by falling in reverse

Btw I gotta be real here, Prime 4... Didn't really say anything other than what looks like more motion controls from 3? The aimable chronokinesis shot doesn't seem super fun to use either. Probably not gonna stop me from getting it at launch, but still. Guess I need to figure out which games to spend my remaining vouchers on

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

**** everthing, I got my tomodachi life. Im KRUNK

Metroid Dread has Samus’ daddy

Metroid Prime 4 will have Samus’ cool wine aunt (she will still want her DNA for malicious reasons)

I know the perfect breakfast cereal for that:

Prime 4 and Rhythm Heaven were peak. The Gradius collection was also pretty cool.

Everything else was Zzzzzzzzzzzz

That's my secret cap, I never get my hopes up for Silksong

Anyways, here's part 4 of the set, the team's flyer with Crobat. One of the better Johto mons, even if two of its forms were Kanto. I still wanted on the team. The wings on the Silver sprite looked pretty different, even compared to the Gold version. But I found the pose more dynamic, and I was already sticking with the Silver Sprites as is. So I kept it consistent.

The Pokémon and Metroid bits of news were cool.

A new Rhythm Heaven and Tomodachi Life after years is awesome! I haven’t played games from either (except the DS Rhythm Heaven through Totally Legal Means™️), but I’m very interested in them. I hope the Chorus Kids return ‘cause I really like them and Smash Bros. speculation involving them is probably what got me into Rhythm Heaven in the first place (though I’ll still like the game even without them).

Not much else interested me though Everybody Golf’s art style is really cute.

no Deltarune today…

Gotta appreciate that they made a Mario sprite from scratch just to match the box art.

 

[BackseatSakurai]

Patapon getting to be the first title Sony puts out on Nintendo is absolutely magnificent. I am so intrigued at the possibility that we have a Nintendo ecosystem where both Sony & Microsoft are willing to port older games from their catalogs onto Nintendo hardware. This is so phenomenal.

The Nintendo Today app is now showing in app stores.

For what it's worth, the Shredder's Revenge sprites have been ripped.

Looks like a lot of them are ZIP files rather than sheets; not sure if that would make it easier or harder to make them MUGEN characters.

The first one was that LEGO Horizon game, or at least, first with a Sony IP.

 

[SnakeFighter64]

We should write our own fanfics for our dream Nintendo directs. I'm gonna do it.

 

[SneakyLink]

Quick app thoughts:
Neat how you can choose to receive news for more than just 5 games. All games include:
Mario, Zelda, Splatoon, Pikmin, Animal Crossing, Kirby, Fire Emblem, Metroid, Xenoblade, Warioware, Donkey Kong, and classic games.

Additionally it lets you set events for both Switch titles and the other apps, as I can add events for say… Smash Ultimate and Fire Emblem Heroes.

 

[HyperSomari64]

What was on the Japanese version of today's Direct?

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Gonna be honest, Silksong might as well be canceled

 

[Peepo T. Skeleton]

There's still a Nintendo hotel in the works?

 

[Hydreigonfan01]

There is no GTA VI, there is no Half-Life 3 and there is no Silksong

 

[SnakeFighter64]

Been finally able to check out the nintendo music app.

Cool the first three DKC soundtracks are here. Hopefully we can eventually get DK64, Jungle Beat, Returns, and Tropical Freeze.

I cant wait to blast "Pon Pon Pata Pon FEVER" On my TV

 

[ZephyrZ]

Being able to sneak attack other pokemon trainers feels so mean.

 

[Noipoi]

We got a smidgen of Z-A news. God forbid they show us a new Mega but the game still looks cool!

No Silksong. No Deltarune. Time to put on my clown nose.

But TOMADACHI LIFE 2?? GAMING IS SAVED

I think I literally gave myself indigestion because of the fact I was so excited for Tomodachi life

 

[SneakyLink]

Poll up. This time the poll has an Expiration Date due to the Switch 2 Direct.

 

[osby]

Yeah, but it's accurate to what happens when you walk your pet and leave it unattended.

They’re just trying to accurately portray the experience of traveling around a major city at night

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Me wisping to my pikachu: "ok, so, Pika, imma need you to use iron tail RIGHT on the back of that persons pokemons head. We will worry about the consequences later"

 

[TheMightyP]

Sneak up behind trainers
Attack them
Take their money

No wonder it's E10+

 

[Noipoi]

So all the elemental monkeys have been confirmed for Z-A. In addition to Furfrou and Patrat, this now means that every single Pokemon is available in at least one main series game on the Switch.

We did it you guys! We brought back the national dex!

Just in time for that new Pokemon stadium game

 

[TheMightyP]

Also yeah, Z-A actually looks pretty fun, I really don't have gripes aside from it does look a little slow at times, but then again gameplay footage not final™️

 

[Noipoi]

Alright, question of the century.

Will gay marriage be legal in the new Tomadachi Life?
