 Hey everybody welcome back to Nintendo Prime it is Monday it is the 25th you know what it also is It is the week lead up the weekday lead up into Halloween Halloween is one of my favorite holidays of the year isn't that right mr. Pumpkin? I think he agrees so uh we got three stories to talk to you about today these should be really really fun and entertaining uh beyond all of that uh yeah there's giveaways going on we have giveaways going on every single month and just check out the link down in the description or the pinned comment for dread toppers giveaway uh and yeah we have some other giveaways happening uh bit later this year that are going to be a bit of a bigger deal uh so be subscribed because hey you enjoy my content right so if you haven't done that yet click or tap whatever device you have to be on that subscribe button I would also appreciate if you would like this video and maybe even leave a comment in fact let me give you something to comment on what is your main in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate and why all right so we got three stories here this first one apparently comes from a data miner uh so I haven't been able to find the direct source on this so I do apologize obviously I'm trying to get this video out in a timely fashion uh but I did hear this from Samus Hunter who uh is not saying that this is her information that this is publicly available information uh I've seen a couple people message me about it but again I haven't actually gotten the confirmation so we're just gonna work on the presumption that Samus Hunter is not lying to us about this because Samus Hunter was trying to say I haven't heard anything about this but she's aware of data miner stuff so here's the deal Mario Party Superstars comes out this week right cool awesome should be a good time uh Nintendo did a warning on one of the minigames to not use your palm on the control stick because you might break the control stick or hurt your palm uh which is I mean I don't know why people expected that minigame to change by the way there was nothing wrong with it just because you played it back in the day in an unintended fashion to gain an advantage doesn't mean the minigame needs to change just stop abusing the mechanic anyways that's not it here nor there um so data miners have uncovered that two to three potentially new boards coming to the the uh game now these boards are not currently announced uh we don't know exactly what the boards are but apparently they're going to be coming in the future so this would be something like future dlc uh so that's cool because people always wondered were they going to expand the game in the future or was this just going to be it the superstars collection hunter games was this just going to be the whole shebang and it appears nope there's going to be some more boards coming now I obviously have my own personal uh favorite boards for Mario Party history that aren't in this game yet so we'll have to wait and see if any of mine personally make that cut but we first have to have this dlc announced or these free updates potentially announced uh I don't think it's going to be announced soon this to me sounds like something that hey maybe at e3 or something around that time next year they'd be like oh by the way we have new dlc coming out for Mario Party superstars after it just crossed the 10 million sales mark or whatever milestone it gets to so uh yep that's that's pretty cool again data miners are usually really really really accurate when it comes to this stuff because they're literally just finding things that are in the game files and you might be wondering how the hell of data miners uh done this well because super mario oh sorry was it mario party superstars I always get there's so many day in Mario Party games um so Mario Party superstars uh has been leaked um not only is it all over the internet uh there's legit copies especially if you live in california you can go on apps like offer up and find people selling real copies of the game um I decided not to order one in because by the time I would have got it from Cali uh the game would pretty much be here so I might as well just wait uh but yeah this is pretty cool um I mean not so much that leaked obviously the the weird thing about this game leaking is that besides these data mine discoveries it's just boards and games we've played before so it's not really that big a deal so I don't know anyways let's get into our next story our next story uh deals with an analyst who is giving a prediction on nintendo's next gen hardware and when we can expect it this analyst is a name you probably have not heard in a while we're talking about web bush analyst michael packer he does a show I think it's every week called the uh the packer factor now this is kind of like a follow-up show from his old game trailer days uh and yeah he he basically answers a bunch of fan questions every single week uh and he does it for free by the way he's not you know this isn't something that he's being paid to do uh he just does it because he enjoys it uh and one of those questions dealt with when he would expect a next gen uh nintendo switch to come out because there's obviously rumors of next year maybe 2023 here's what he had to say I think the probably the earliest you're going to see a new console is 2024 and honestly more likely 2025 so again not because they can't they can it's because they're making so much money making switches if the switch is still 300 dollars it'll drop the 250 dollars he's talking about the base model after christmas and what supply and demand get in balance again the OLED will become the de facto model so the mainline model at 300 so I prefer to do this before by the way they're going to drop the price of the old one stop making the old one drop the price of the OLED that's going to be I've actually made this prediction already that part of it anyways uh but they're minting money at 300 dollars the thing costs them less than 150 dollars to make probably less than 100 dollars so they're able to make a ton of money as long as the they are what's the rush to bring out a new console they believe the competition was microsoft and sony they would release a more powerful console that um this goes back to mr owada and his blue ocean strategy that's the mantra of the company nintendo is absolutely convinced that they're playing on a different playground than everybody else and they don't care how many xboxes or playstations are sold and in fairness to them if you want to play nintendo games you're buying a nintendo console as long as they have good content and a lot of it uh they're going to keep selling switches and one thing they've got is good content and a lot of it if you start to see a decline in sales of software you could worry but you're not their games are killing it they're just selling so many units of everything and it's because their games are really really good so I do agree with him obviously on the point that the games are really really good I get that subject that some of you guys don't actually like the switch versions of games and new ip's I've even heard some people say they don't like Metroid Dread which to me is just baffling especially I should say it's baffling to me if you previously enjoyed Metroid games if you're a new person into the series and you tried Metroid Dread you didn't enjoy it that's totally different not every game every genre is for every person all right that being set um I do think there is a good sentiment to say that 2023 24 25 feels like a next gen nintendo time frame but it all really depends obviously if switches continue into sell well obviously it depends if whatever this supposed new system that's been in the works um is supposed to be a new gen or if it's just a mid-gen upgrade if it's a mid-gen upgrade and we're not getting a new system in 2025 a switch pro in 2022 makes more and more sense if we're not really getting the next gen until 2024 2025 but we'll have to wait and see this is all speculation at this point but I do appreciate his viewpoints I also think Michael Pachter is a fairly intelligent person I know people can point out all of his wrong predictions and just fact based inaccuracies in the past but um none of us are analysts that are handling millions of dollars of people's stock money so I'm just saying that like yeah maybe we're experts in other things that he is not but the field he works in he's literally one of the best to do it so that's one reason why I can respect his opinion when it comes to stuff like this because all of this affects stocks and he nintendo is one of the stocks that he does track and suggest buy or sells in to his clients all right this last story is maybe the the best story out of all this so there's been a rumor circulated and I didn't really put much stock into it until jeff grubb spoke up today and yes I know jeff grubb doesn't have a hundred percent track record either although he has a good track record sometimes things change behind the scenes um and honestly I've been wondering when this was going to happen and maybe it took Super Smash Bros ultimate blowing up but we're starting to see companies coming out with more and more Super Smash Bros clones yeah there was that indie one I think brawl hollow or something like that but setting that one aside we haven't really seen a lot of high end ones until obviously Nickelodeon all stars or whatever came out and apparently is pretty solid pretty good not as good as smash but still it's a passable Super Smash Bros clone and is good enough for people who are fans of Nickelodeon but here's the thing uh WB is reportedly working on their own Super Smash Bros clone which is very interesting when you consider all the IPs that WB controls um jeff grubb who said this is real but wouldn't give any exact ideas he did note that netherlands is not the studio behind it that was what the initial rumor was netherlands so i'm going to kind of disregard the original rumor because it all felt around a studio that is apparently not doing it according to jeff grubb but that the game itself does exist WB owns quite a few interesting properties or at least has some film rights to a lot of interesting properties they probably could translate into video game IP rights if they want so this is going to be interesting because let's look at the IPs that could potentially be in a game like this so you have batman and basically the entire DC comics so that's a lot a lot of characters right there um the harry potter franchise uh pretty much anything that's ever been made for adult swim or the cartoon network because WB owns that um HBO shows you know think about things like game of thrones hello queen of dragons having that her up here that would be insane john snow i mean the list goes on and on for HBO characters you could throw in there um they actually have some IP rights to certain lego movie properties uh so lego characters in here wouldn't that be kind of cool godzilla they own godzilla so that's one the matrix and that's coming back obviously we have rocky rocky bell boa wouldn't it be cool a boxer type to get in there um and more sherlock holmes they own the ip rights to that scooby do obviously friday the 13th a nightmare on elm street i mean friday kruger i mean that this is just a really really cool stuff uh that could potentially appear in there in fact someone mentioned maybe even lord of the rings they don't own the full rights to it but obviously they could maybe work something out there i get some gandalf action in there or or any of the main characters really get frotto or something i don't know to me this just all sounds awesome um i'm all for there being more of these smash bros clones because super smash bros while it's the greatest crossover in video game history it's also very specifically tied to video games uh whereas something like this which could have involved a bunch of movie and comic and book characters is something that would never happen with smash bros at least the way smash bros is currently done so this makes a lot of sense same with the nicolodium one i was totally fine with that as well because those characters realistically were never going to be in a smash bros game otherwise so to me it makes sense for some of these side ones to exist and by the way having more smash bros like fighting games is fine think about how many one-on-one you know side by side playing games do we have you know whether it's tech and whether it's mortal combat uh whether a street fighter so many of these games are basically fundamentally designed in very similar fighting styles the traditional fighting game style that goes back to the arcades that we don't really have a ton of ones that are built like smash bros and it doesn't make sense because super smash bros has always been basically the most popular fighting game in terms of sales and now ultimately it's massive i actually think that we're just hitting the tip of the iceberg if wb does it in this concessal the nicolodium one sold well um before you know it we might get flooded with games like this and maybe then it might become a little bit overbearing but for right now as long as it's interesting companies that own a large variety of ip i think it makes a lot of sense this is obviously a way to also get a smash bros style game with characters people might care about a lot on other platforms besides switch and that is obviously good for gamers in general i'm not one of those people that thinks hey screw you other gamers shouldn't get to have this kind of fun don't forget that console wars are dumb if someone's going to go out there and make a smash bros like game with those kind of characters through they're going to have an appeal to the playstation xbox pc audience absolutely go for it i hope they bring it to switch to like you know don't leave us out of the loop too but everyone should get to partake in a game like this so i don't know i'm pretty excited about it and that's going to do it and i'm sure maybe you've seen my dog walking around he's kind of curious hey nat why are you recording pay attention to me yada yada yada see here he is like a you're a good boy oh yeah who's a good boy who's a good boy this is link that's right buddy all right folks thank you so much for tuning in i am the tanner obajance from nintendo prime and i'll catch you guys in the next video
