Does it taste better than the last time Nintendo had their own cereal?

Dunno, haven't opened it yet. Waiting for Christmas morning to surprise them. It's apparently mixed berry cereal with marshmallows. Doesn't sound great to me but it's not for me so I don't mind.

The Mario cereal is meh. It's like lucky charms with a slightly bland berry taste.

Nintendo announced Labo for Switch. Comes with cardboard you can fold to make enclosures and then play games. Two kits, $69.99 for the "variety" kit that has a house, fishing, a working piano and a motorbike game amongst other things. $79.99 for a robot one that is clearly priced as a full game.
It's probably best if you just watch the video. |

Have they announced a date for the switch version of Smash yet? I know they said it was coming way back when. Also, really hoping for a Mario Maker 2 announcement, or even a switch version of the original.

Mario Maker 2 feels very unlikely. So far no games that rely heavily on the stylist/touch pad of the WiiU have been ported.

Dunno it was a pretty big success both critically and financially. Cant see Nintendo leaving a sequel or pport on the table. They could figure out a way around the stylus problem easily enough.

Only stuff has been recent rumors about Nintendo making a Smash Bros announcement by E3 and a rumored release later this year. Also rumored to be an enhanced port having all of the 3DS & Wii U's stuff along with new content.

There's going to be a large chunk for Mario Tennis, then the leakers are saying so far that it's Mario DLC themed around Luigi's Mansion, Fire Emblem Switch, Ever Oasis remake, No More Heroes gameplay video and Pokken DLC. Probably be more as well, but if all that does happen, I'm thinking it's not Smash or Mario Maker this time.

They said all those things were going to happen on a Direct on 8th March 2 days ago before the Direct was even known, so they at least already have the fact there would even be a direct right.

I don't think Mario Maker has a window of opportunity . It's Mario. It'll sell like gangbusters whenever they decide to release it.

Theyre only porting because theyre filling in the gaps before 3rd party support kicks in.

I was 100% on a Mario Maker 2 untilni was listening to the top guys from the community. Barb, poo, dode, ryu, segan it doesnt matter. They all gave a convincing argument. The switch cant do mario maker effectively.
It has a similar functionality to the 3ds touch screen and it is far from intuitive on md held. You would need to create a peripheral specifically for the switch to really make it work and that has never once been profitable save guitar hero fad a few years back. As rule its a bad idea. So Mario Maker 2? I dunno. Logically it seems unlikely and Nintendo not porting tne touch screen dependent games should be an indicator on this. |

Well of course creating won't be as quick and efficient without a touch screen. But its not hampered so much that you wouldn't have people lined up to buy it again. You would literally just need a cursor controlled by the analog sticks. Again, not as efficient, but no where near enough of a downgrade that its not worth making in my opinion.

If people arent creating the game dies; a simple and intuitive editor is paramount

It can still be simple and intuitive. This is Nintendo we're talking about. That's pretty much their MO. (Well when it comes to gameplay at least. Connecting with friends online still seems to confound them.)
I don't think everyone who loved mario maker is so spoiled by the touchscreen that they would reject a game that didnt have it. |

Have you used the editor on the DS? Its fairly terrible. Games is only good for playing the level made on the WiiU version. The 3ds version would have never had success without the WiiU counter part.
Its not about being spoiled; its about people not playing bad games. And im of the opinion that nintendo will not release a subpar product for the easy sales, that isnt their way. So i think MM2 isnt going to happen. (Ftr i mouse peripheral would solve this but again forced peripherals hurt sales historically and i think Nintendo knows it.) |

Players of MM2 will be on board but i dont think the creators will and that will kill the game. I think Nintendo is smart enough to know this so unless they get a great solution...i think they pass.
I hope they dont though. 3 years and mario maker is still my favorite content on twitch. |

Anyone try out Azure Striker Gunvolt? Looks like a spiritual successor to Mega Man Zero series, which I love. Made by Inti Creates themselves.
Probably gonna pick up a few indy games with the switch tomorrow. Comes with Mario Odyssey so I'm gonna wait on Breath of the Wild for a bit. Definitely gonna pick up Stardew valley. Maybe Golf Story. |
