I think Chronicles kind of was in a position where the Wii U needed heft during that "reboot" period right around the time of Smash 4 in addition to being a test game for Monolith to try a bunch of new stuff they weren't sure would work.

So it was kind of that test game thats thrown out there for devs to try new stuff and a little rushed so Nintendo could claim "JRPG EXCLUSIVE~!!" for the Wii U push.

Mario, Luigi, & Samus cars announced for Rocket League

Available as special unlockables when Rocket League launches on Nintendo Switch in Holiday 2017, the first Battle-Cars named Mario NSR and Luigi NSR are based on the iconic Nintendo characters. Whether or not players use the Mario or Luigi NSR will depend on which team color they select before the match - Mario for the Orange team and Luigi for the Blue team. The second exclusive Battle-Car is Samus’ Gunship based on the protagonist of the beloved Metroid franchise. Samus’ Gunship also has two different variations based upon what team color a player chooses, and are styled after different Varia Suits.

Both cars also have specialized boosts, called “Super Star” for the Mario and Luigi NSR and “Wave Beam” for Samus’ Gunship. The Nintendo Battle-Cars and other Nintendo Switch additions, including local wireless multiplayer and Mario and Luigi Toppers, will be available when Rocket League comes to Nintendo Switch, Holiday 2017.

Well, this is interesting.

Seems Pokemon Company CEO told Nintendo execs that he thought Switch would fail. He is obviously wrong, but this makes a lot of sense now why a Pokemon game outside of Pokken (which itself could have been a rushed port/update from the arcade version) won't be ready until 2018 at the earliest.

I guess it's also a positive that Nintendo wasn't heavy handed in demanding a Pokemon game be made for Switch launch and then the developer delivered one half-hearted.

Would love a December 8 for xeno2

Splatoon 2 and ARMS are well past release now. I'm going to be a little disappointed if there isn't Smash Switch news.

**Guitarman** · 2017-09-11 17:13

I actually would prefer if there wasn't; in my way of thinking, the only way they'd have smash up this early is if the rumors were true and they were porting over Brawl; the longer it takes for another smash, the more likely we're getting a fresh installment.

**Serra** · 2017-09-11 17:31

Also, it's not like there aren't major releases on the horizon and a bunch of highly anticipated games confirmed to be in development.

**Kirin** · 2017-09-12 08:40

And we have lift-off.

Edit: Okay, seems like theres some testing with how YouTube displays the game you're playing when using a stream.

https://twitter.com/AllSourceGaming/...45479826448385

tl;dr - They had to add Smash manually for it to show up, but there were a few instances of "similar" games being considered the "best fit" for the listing when testing previous streams (E3 had Splatoon 1 instead of the featured Splatoon 2 - etc). However, the instances when they specifically tested for Smash had to be manually entered for it to show up.

Edit2: Kamiya has retweeted the direct for tomorrow. Yes, hes a noted troll - and very good at it. But it may be worth noting because he has been on making W101 and Bayonetta references recently.

Edit 3: Soraya Saga has retweeted the direct. She is 100% accurate in retweeting when Monolith is involved in some form, so Xenoblade 2 info is a lock.

Just a reminder, Nintendo direct soon. Also, Bingo.
