    Pokemon i'm not surprised with. US/UM will be fall this year and Pokemon Switch will be the usual "past gen remake" slot for year 2-3 of the gen, which leaves the question of them remaking D/P or not the larger issue.

    Metroid surprises me. I would have thought the "Now In Development" underscore on the reveal meant something more along the lines of "we just greenlit it and were 2 months in" versus "shits getting Alpha tested by end of this year", which surprises me even more that Retro isn't involved. At this point I know Nintendo is smarter than to rush a Metroid game after waiting so long, so they must have had this in development for a minute and kept it very under wraps.

    Smash Switch remains a matter of when and not if. Releasing it alongside their online platform seems smart. Suck to have to wait that long, but maybe theyre trying to figure out gamecube joycons in the meantime.

    Switch version is not a GOTY edition

    So all 87 base characters from PS4 etc will be in it but

    Zamasu, Fusiin Zamasu, Frost, Bojack, Cabba, and Vegito Blue

    Will be paid DLC

    Rainway developer has Batman: Arkham Knight running on the Switch.

    It's early, so some software kinks need to be worked out. He did state it's not the Switch itself thats making it laggy.

    It's also made clear that Nintendo is allowing work to be done through the browser right now, but the final product will indeed be a dedicated app.

    Also, HTML 5 works on the Switch browser.

    Not that I use it often, so correct me if I am mistaken. Though Rainway seems to be a catch-all for everything and not tied to specific platforms.

    Like Rainway will potentially feed into every console via PC games. Before it was using X program to play on PS4 but needing Y program to play on XBox One.

    Also, PC only games on the Switch.

    I'm personally more excited about TitS than anything else.

    They also have integration with many PC gaming platforms, i.e Steam (even custom games added here), Origin, GOG, etc, in a nice UI so that you can launch pretty much any game you have on your PC seamlessly.

    Some rainway FAQs:

    - It is free
    - It works locally and over the internet
    - Your PC needs to be able to run the game it's streaming at 60 FPS.
    - You use the games you already have.
    - This isn't a cloud service.
    - You're able to remap controls for any device.
    - You can control the resolution, framerate and bitrate of the stream. It also supports downscaling and upscaling.

    Can't find the source for the artwork, but the story comments seem to imply it is Nintendo official artwork.

    It would be falling at a weird time. FE Warriors is around that time, but FE Switch could potentially be late 2018. Echoes wasn't released too long ago, but Nintendo may be a little overzealous in their hand and be pushing FE hard due to the success of Echoes, Heroes, and excitement behind Warriors.

    Edit: Nevermind, found the cover art.

    Probably fake now. Still interesting it was listed briefly on Amazon, as foreign sites have been known to use fan art for listings that don't have cover art for yet.

    Just a FYI, this stand is up for the daily deal on Amazon. I bought this and it works amazingly for my switch. Much much better than the Hori plastic thing everyone uses.

    Not bad, was eyeing this one for travel:

    https://www.amazon.com/Foldable-Mult...d+switch&psc=1

    Only 18.99 if you're a Prime member.

    Mario Odyssey and Xenoblade 2 physical pre-orders are currently both up for ~$48 on Amazon right now, currently apparently for the US only.

    Talking with an Amazon rep now to see if this is pre or post prime, as it is the list price when I don't log in.

    Not the list price I see. It only becomes 48 once Prime is taken into account.
