 for another stream. Let's go. Is my audio working? Is it not working? Am I muted? Am I muted? That's what I need to know. I can't tell from here if I am. Please tell me I'm not muted. Please tell me. What a start to the stream. What a night. What a day. What in everything? By the way, you can pretty much ignore this ticker. In fact, you know what? Yeah, you can basically ignore the ticker down here. Holy crud, guys. It has been a minute and a half. So much so, I was still doing the robot singing voice. Is the stream telling me you don't like the robot voice? Maybe you'd rather have it for the entirety of the stream. Man, it is a day. I'm going to lift up my stream back because I'll bring it over here quick. It is a stream and a half. First off, shout out. We had a $5 Super Chat earlier, way earlier at the kickoff of the stream from stare at me. It is too early in the day for me to have this kind of energy. Way too early in the day. I mean, I know it's like 12.30 p.m. my time. I know it's 12.30 p.m. my time, but it's way too early for me to have this level of energy. So we're having a bang today. Radical skedaddle. They are not a sponsor. I don't care. I just like bang. Who doesn't like to bang? That's one of the reasons I like to drink it. You can make a nice joke. All right. So we have a lot to talk about. A lot to digest today. For those wondering why we're doing a day stream, I will not be streaming tonight like I usually do around 8.00, 8.30, sometimes 9.00 because the Milwaukee Bucks played tonight and I got a couple of friends coming over. Eric's coming over from the center of my podcast and an old friend I haven't even seen in like a decade is coming over. So yeah, we're just going to have a nice hangout session, probably drink a few beers, watch the game, you know, maybe play some video games. Is that like a thing people do with friends these days? Like do people actually play video games with friends anymore? I don't know. I haven't played video games with friends forever. So I'm playing games with friends tonight after watching the game. So we will not be streaming tonight. However, that didn't mean I didn't want to stream and talk to you guys because while I was okay not doing a stream at all today, we had so much big news. How can we not have a conversation together? How could I not talk directly to you guys? You guys talked to me and we actually figured this whole thing out. What the hell is happening? Specifically with Switch Pro and then the switches line up E3 and then yeah, we also had a sonic thing that happened today that because of all the coverage I was doing a switch pro last night conversation with Andres restart the standalone video I missed and kind of slept through it. So yeah, we have to talk about all that sonic news as well. Some people think it was an extremely good sonic presentation. Some people think it wasn't. So there's kind of people on both sides of the aisle and I think that happens with every presentation. Some people are going to think Nintendo has an awesome E3. Other people are going to think they don't. But before we get into that, I got to get these super chats taken care of. So yeah, thank you Matthew Lewis for the 1.99 euro pound thingy. Oh, oh, thank you Nintendo Academy as well for the $5. And Nintendo Academy says, stopping by the show, the love and support for the hustle, super busy 24 hours, you got to tell me. I don't even know how I slipped in enough sleep. I really don't. Oh yeah, that's another thing. Thank you the ATARC for the $5 Australian That's another good thing he reminded me. We also have Dragon Quest news. So we have a bunch of news that's happened. I didn't live stream any of it. So we're doing this stream now to cover all that news. And I know you guys want to talk a lot about Switch Pro, right? Everyone that's here wants to talk about Switch Pro. And I understand we are going to talk about Switch Pro. I'm going to switch it up and that's going to be like the final thing we talk about because that's going to make up the bruxes of the stream, right? I like to get into all the other news ahead of time, especially the stuff that's relevant to Nintendo fans. And then we will, then we'll kind of expand into that Switch Pro conversation, which I know will dominate a majority of the stream because there's a lot to digest from a lot of different sources, a lot of different people, what this thing is, you know, is it just an Excel model? Is it just, is it the actual more powerful model? What's this whole thing about phasing out the current switch? What the hell does that mean? What's going on? What the heck? Why are they leaving the base Switch Lite model? Are they going to make changes to that? Why the hell are they announcing this thing potentially before E3? What could Nintendo be thinking? And why are all these people suddenly believing that this is going to happen? It's not just one source anymore. There are now dozens of sources saying that this is going to happen. Like, this is, wow, let's, let's first get into the other news that we have. Touch upon some Dragon Quest stuff here in a moment. Let's see here. I'm trying to find, there it goes, Dragon Quest news. So, we have Dragon Quest 12, The Flames of Fate. So this is the big one. This is the big one. You know, we had Dragon Quest 11, now we have Dragon Quest 12. This one is coming sometime in the future. It's supposed to be darker. It's about having options. So you have to take some options. You have to choose your own way of how to play. Your in control of the game of your life is what it says. That sounds like a very dark take here. And I see that Super Chat. I will get to that Super Chat in a moment, because I just want to get through all this news quick. And then I'll go back and shout out all those Super Chats guys. So just give me a moment to get through the news and then we'll take a break before the Switch Pro stuff gets those Super Chats in and take some questions on the news. Then we'll go from there. So a few other aspects of the game are also changing, including command battles. They're still in prototype stages right now, which suggests the game could be a while away. No release date or platforms have been confirmed for Dragon Quest 12 yet. But Hori says there'll be more updates in the future and that it should be simultaneous worldwide release. So it's probably going to come sometime next year. But yeah, it's called Dragon Quest 12. The flames of fate. A really dark take on Dragon Quest. Again, we'll have to wait and see. That's one of the big things they announced. Obviously Dragon Quest 11 was fantastic. Fantastic on Switch. Fantastic on every platform. Next up they announced Dragon Quest 3 HD 2D remake for home consoles, right? HD 2D. It actually looks really, really good, if I'm honest. I watched the trailer on this earlier. It says one of the six games revealed during Square Enix's Dragon Quest, 25th anniversary live stream earlier, was Dragon Quest 3 HD 2D remake. According to the game's producer Masaki Hayasaka, who has previously worked on games such as Autopad Traveler, the HD 2D style combines pixel art and 3D effects to reduce a sense of depth and atmosphere like nothing else. The development team is aiming for a worldwide simultaneous release on home consoles. So a Switch release does sound likely. The release date for the game hasn't been decided. So stay tuned for that probably later this year. If not, like a first half of 2022 game because it looks pretty polished and pretty far along in development, that one did. We also got Dragon Quest Treasures, which is a new RPG spinoff starring Erik and Mia from Dragon Quest 11. So the producer is Tachi Inuzuka, explained how the game would be a spinoff starring Erik and Mia, and some key themes will be apparently be Erik and Mia's childhood and treasure hunting. It will also be an RPG, but not the traditional one, and that's all that can be evidently be revealed for now. Release dates and platforms have not yet been decided. So this one is also going to be a simultaneous worldwide release, but again this one seems like pretty far off. This could be a 2023 title, something something that's not quite ready to go. And then they said Dragon Quest 10 is being transformed into a cute offline game and it launches in Japan next year. So this was unexpected announcement. This is the offline version of the MMO Dragon Quest X, meaning it won't require an internet connection. At the moment it's been announced for 2022 Japanese release. No platforms confirmed yet, apart from the cute visuals. May you literally call it cute visuals. Producer Takobi Shirishi, I'm sure I butchered that. There will be some other changes that will be revealed in the future announcement Dragon Quest series. Creator Yuji Hori described it as cute take on Dragon Quest 10. So yeah, that's something that's happening. Factually releasing in Japan next year. We'll see what platforms, we'll see if that ends up coming to Switch and other platforms. Okay, so that's it for the brux of the big Dragon Quest announcements anyone cares about. Let's get into the Sonic news. There's basically two announcements out of that Sonic thing that the matter for Switch owners. Let me get to those announcements here. One is that Sonic Colors Ultimate. That's right. Are you a Sonic Colors fan? You guys remember the Sonic Colors game? I think it was on 3DS wasn't it? I'm pretty sure it was on 3DS. Anyways, it's been rumored for a long time. Or is it a Wii title? Maybe it was the Wii one. Remember there was a version on 3DS and then there was the Wii title? This might have been the Wii one. But Sonic Colors Ultimate is confirmed for Switch release this fall. In the Wii era, okay yeah Wii game, Sonic and Sega were truly buddies with Nintendo and a rather good game came out of that era. That was Sonic Colors. Today it's in Sonic Central's broadcast. Sega confirmed Sonic Colors Ultimate, which is heading the Switch on the 7th of September. Sonic Colors, main title on Wii with a version on DS. Okay yeah, so I was remembering right DS, not 3DS but yeah. See I knew it was on the handheld system. It arrived way back in 2010 and its impact was such that we even described it as the best 3D Sonic game ever. This is Nintendo life. They give it a 9 out of 10. It avoided much of the silly storytelling and characters of the previous 3D titles. In terms of the remaster, Sega showed a trailer that showcased visuals that are looking snappy with the HD sheen. There doesn't appear to be any major additions beyond improved visuals. So they're kind of doing like what happened with Skyward Sword HD, right? They're boosting the game into HD and they're re-releasing it. Hey, whatever. It is a much beloved Sonic game. And then we have a Sega tease as a brand new Sonic game that's confirmed for Switch in 2022. It's a very short tease. This is like Metroid Prime 4 style tease. Today they brought us the first ever Sonic Central. Big news are going to be in the reveal of Sonic Colors Ultimate. Right at the end of the broadcast however we were given a very brief tease of a new title from the Sonic team. We weren't given a title or any firm details beyond the fact that it's 2022 and then it's coming to Switch. The tease starts at 11.20 mark in the thing and it's literally like a logo. So yeah. This is kind of like the Metroid Prime 4 reveal. It doesn't mean much. It's like that we have one more thing to show you and then they just tease that they're making a brand new Sonic game. So there is that. Gotta remember I think it's Sonic's 30th anniversary. I believe that's what this celebration was for. Also Sonic Origins is going to spin dash to the latest platforms next year. That's another announcement that's happening in coming to Switch. It doesn't include as much content as the Sonic Mega Collection of the GameCube PS2 and Xbox Era. The upcoming collection. So this is that collection pack that was leaked before. It was released next year and it'll include the following 2D pixel field games about Sonic the Hedgehog, Sonic the Hedgehog 2, Sonic the Hedgehog 3, Sonic and Knuckles. That's a big one. And then Sonic CD. So that's going to be the collection. Going to release next year. Likely coming to Switch. They didn't announce platforms for it but there's no real reason these games can't come to Switch and we know that Sega and Nintendo are they're tight. They're tight. So yeah. That's all that big news. Let me get to the chat now. What are your guys's reaction to all that? Let me get the super chats all taken care of. We have some people who subscribed. So let me let me get through all this here. First off, to the super chat. Thank you Amesh Productions for the $1 and Matthew Lewis for the $1.99. Thank you guys so much for that. We're going to add a fade and fade out on that one. It's kind of a brap for the dents. Also we had a bunch of new subscribers happen while we were doing this. We had D. Collins. Thank you for subscribing. Let's see here. We had Russell Marillo. Thank you for subscribing. We had industrial surgeon. Thank you for subscribing as well. So I think that is all of those subscribers. Had a couple of questions coming in. It says, I'm so glad that you're supposed to listen to people with negative comments that only talk about that. I'm excited for your e3 coverage more than anyone else. All that. I stopped listening to the negative comments. It's, we'll get into that in a moment. Okay. We'll say that conversation for later. No love for the new game of the garage trailer? No, I don't really care. Maybe a regular like Zelda? Okay. All right. All right. All right. So that's all of that news. All the game news. That's the Sonic news, the Dragon Quest news. What are you guys thoughts on that? Do you have any questions about that before we get into the Switch Pro? I know everyone's here to talk Switch Pro. I get it. But I wanted to cover that Sonic news. I wanted to cover that Dragon Quest news. I know I could have a separate video on it. The Sonic news is actually all brand new stuff. Dragon Quest actually happened late last night. Happened actually just before all the Switch Pro stuff hit. Thank you for subscribing and manual aisles. Thank you so much for that. Nick Forrest wants to know, how am I doing? I'm alive. That's about all I can say right now. I got my Sega shirt on because of the Sonic stuff today. Obviously we have some Horizon, uh, forbidden West stuff later today. I will not be live streaming that. Um, just I've had too much going on. This has been one of the craziest weeks for news we've had in a long time. We're not even just talking rumors. We're talking like legit news happening all week long. Microsoft's press conference is announced. We know when that's happening now. Uh, it's it's a joint press conference obviously with Microsoft and Bethesda. Like dude, crazy stuff. We've had so much news and it's going to just keep ramping up and up and up all the way to E3, baby. All right. Um, oh, by the way, we do have a, we do have a member goal. It's not up right now. Uh, but if we get five new members during the stream, we do a giveaway. We do this every stream. I don't have it have it up at the moment, but we have zero out of five at the moment. Uh, I could switch layouts. I have, I have a different one. It's just not set up on my, on my stream deck. You have to switch to that, um, would have that on screen, but we're not going to worry about it right now. Sonic Colors price. I don't know. I don't know. I have no idea what it's priced at. No idea. I know when it comes out, um, let me see if it's listed on Amazon yet. That might tell me a price. Um, Sonic Colors ultimate. Um, I'm not seeing it listed on Amazon yet. Let me make sure it's the game. Yeah, I'm not seeing it listed on Amazon yet. It doesn't mean it's not. Uh, so I'm not sure what the price is on it. It might be 60 bucks. It might be 40, might be 30, might be 20. I have no, no idea. So we'll, we'll, we'll stay tuned. Maybe during the stream we'll get a price update on it, or if somebody in the chat already knows and has links to where you can buy it, that'd be great. If you guys let me know what, uh, what retailers have, have pre-order links up so I can, uh, check it out and get the price. Uh, what does Samsung think about Pokemon Arceus in relation to the Switch Pro? We'll get to that in a moment. We're not doing Switch Pro stuff yet. Uh, do I like Sonic 3D Blast? Yeah, it's all right. It's an all right game. Uh, Birdman says that it's $39.99, so it's $40. It's gonna be a $40 game for an HD version of Sonic Colors. So there you go, 40 bucks. I don't know what's, who's gonna be 20? I don't know. GameStop has it up? Cool, cool, cool. Yeah. I don't have any pre-orders in for that yet. It's not that hard to get pre-orders for games. It's systems that are a problem and we'll get into that in a moment because that's a whole conversation we gotta have, right? About that, that's supposed a new Switch coming. Um, yeah. So it's September 7th and it's gonna be 40 bucks. Thank you guys for that. I don't have the news right in front of me, right? You know? So, uh, you're gonna cop Sonic Colors? Yeah, I mean, I'll probably pick up Sonic Colors. I enjoyed it back in the day. I'll, I'll play it again, you know? For 40 bucks in HD. I mean, I'm paying 60 for Skyward Sword, so who am I gonna complain? Um, no open world Sonic game? We don't know. Okay, so they announced a brand new Sonic game for 2022. We don't know what it is. They basically gave us like a kind of a logo-ish, title-ish splash screen. They've basically Metroid Prime 4'ed it or Banetta 3'ed it, and we haven't seen any gameplay or anything. We have no idea what kind of game it is. They gave us no details except that it comes next year and it's coming to Switch and all other platforms. So, we're kind of stuck waiting, right? We don't know. We have no idea what kind of Sonic game it is. Um, it's systems and collectors editions that are very hard to get. Yeah, yeah. Games aren't that hard to get. Sometimes certain physical copies go out of stock for like a brief minute and then they come back. Um, obviously there's some older games that aren't in print anymore, but that's different. The games aren't in print anymore. That's why they're hard to get. It's not because suddenly there's a big demand for it. Just, you know, certain Switch games or other games for other platforms, you know? They don't sell enough to keep printing them, so they stop. Um, do you feel like Pokemon Arceus release date is too soon based on the rough trailer? Oh yeah, it's nothing. We had a straight, well, we did do the podcast yesterday. So I guess I'll briefly mention the, the obviously the Pokemon news. Pokemon Brilliant Diamond, Shining Pearl coming out on November 19th. Um, so that's a thing. There's also going to be a combo pack. I can't remember if the combo pack is 90, if it's $100. So you save 20 bucks or if it's still 120 bucks and it's just like buying the game separately, but you get them in one package. I can't remember. I'm trying to remember what they did with Sword and Shield. It's basically the exact same thing there. So whatever pricing system they went with that, that's what's happening here. Uh, and then Pokemon Legends Arceus comes out on January 28th, 2022. Very interesting. Very, very interesting. That game comes out then. It's led to wild speculation that Breath of the Wild 2 is now going to be a March 2022 game. Um, obviously Breath of the Wild 2 can't come out in November because there's Pokemon. It could come out in December, it could come out in October, it could come out in September, it could come out whenever. And it's even coming out this fiscal year, which by the way, we have no idea if Breath of the Wild 2 is even coming out this fiscal year. We all hope it is. We suppose it is. We've heard things about localization being done with it. If that's the case, how can it not come out in this current fiscal year? I don't know. I'm not Nintendo, okay? For all I know, Bayonetta 3 is just done and just sitting there at Platinum and Nintendo's deciding when they want to announce it and release it. You know, we have no idea what's happening with Nintendo's games. Um, but, uh, $1199 for the Dual Pack. Yeah, so it's what I thought. It's $120. Yeah, you don't save any money by getting the Dual Pack. It's just a, it's a convenient package, I guess, and you can consider the box it comes in, because I believe it's just a sleeve or it's a box, but it's got both, based on how thick that box is, it looks like it's just got two physical copies, you know, the individual copies inside of it, but you could consider the Dual Pack box itself that those things sit in to be a collector's item. Some people will consider it a collector's item because that Dual Pack is not going to be around as long as the individual games will, right? That same thing happened with Sword and Shield. They don't make any more of the new Dual Packs, you know? You can only buy them individually as of today, so some people consider that Dual Pack cardboard sleeve like a collectible kind of thing. I don't know. Um, I can't, I can't talk. I got some cardboard sleeve things from Breath of the Wild that, you know, are in there that are in my collection area. That's, you know, literally I just have it because it's like a collectible. Um, not because it really makes a big difference. All right. Has anything been said about new Joy-Cons for the Switch Pro in the past that's relevant now? Nothing at all, except Nintendo denying there's a problem. That's it. The latest on Joy-Cons is there is no Switch, there is no drift problem, but also we'll fix them for free, but there is no drift problem. That's the latest from Nintendo and that's going back years. They do not talk about the Joy-Cons. They don't talk about the issues with the Joy-Cons. One reason though is that they have a lot of lawsuits going on. They have a government and out in Europe suing them. Um, they've got multiple class action lawsuits against them in multiple countries. Right now, Nintendo's got a lot of legal snafu specific to Joy-Con drift and the Joy-Cons themselves. And here comes my dog. Hi, Link. Get out, buddy. You want to say hi? Okay, but you got to get out of my office, buddy. Out, Link. Out, bud. Out. Come say hi. Hey, everyone. Here's my dog. There's my dog. His name's Link. All right, Link. Go on an adventure somewhere else. Buddy, you got to get out of my office. Oh boy. Hold on. I'm putting some music for you guys to be right back. He's like, he needs to go to the bathroom. No, he was in here to get his bone. Sometimes when I'm working and I'm editing videos, I'll have him in the studio and he chews on a bone in here and he left his bone in here. So he was running around trying to find, where's my bone? Where's my bone? He found it and he went back upstairs. My fiance is taking care of him. So, hey, you guys are going to see my dog. He's a big boy. He is a half lab, half great dame. So he kind of looks like Scooby-Doo, but also has like the face of a lab and looks absolutely adorable. And he's massive. He's like, he's a big dog. And he's young. He's young. He's still a puppy. He's a well-behaved puppy. But he's got lots of energy as you saw. He needs to go outside and run around. We got a big backyard from the running. We had a thing come in here. Thank you, Takeer 610 for the two dollars. Thank you so much, Takeer 610. I really appreciate the two dollars. His name is Link. I love this. Yeah, he's literally named Link after the Legend of Zelda. So, yes, I have a dog named Link. You have a cat named Zelda. Nice. Don't let my dog near it. He might eat it. No, he doesn't. He's fine around cats. He's fine around all pets. Well, I shouldn't say that. If you have like a rabbit or like a pet rat or something, yeah, he'll eat that. He'll eat that. No problem. But any other normal, normal, regular household pets like cats or other dogs, he is fine. But like, you know, if you have like a rodent style pet, I guess, or bunnies considered rodents, I don't even know. But those style pets, he's definitely going to eat. What can I say, when they're that much smaller compared to him, he's like, that's food, food, food, food, food, food. I mean, they're animals. Come on. Circle of life. Anyways, all right. I got a little bit off track. I guess we've waited long enough, right? Right? Have we waited long enough to talk about the Switch Pro stuff? It's effective in the Switch lineup. Have we waited long enough? I think we have. So here's the deal, folks. Late last night, right around midnight central time, which was my time. We actually happened, I think, 1130. But my video came out just after midnight. Takahashi Machizuki, who's been on top of Switch coverage and hardware coverage since before the original Switch came out. Before the original Switch came out, Takahashi Machizuki, at the time working for Wall Street Journal, put out the following. Nintendo has a new system coming out. That system is going to be handheld and also dockable with a TV at 1080p output there, 720p on screen. Nintendo, this was before Nintendo announced it in October of 2016. Nintendo goes ahead and announces it and look at that, Takahashi Machizuki is right. Then he goes on to say, Nintendo is going to release it at the end of the fiscal year. When did it release in the final month of Nintendo's fiscal year? So Takahashi Machizuki, again, nailing things about the original Switch. Then the Switch Lite comes around. He notes beforehand it's going to be called the Switch Lite. He knew the name of it. He knew it was going to be L-I-T-E, not L-I-G-H-T. He also noted it was going to be smaller. It was going to use a shrunk down SOC. It was going to have slightly better battery life. It was going to have non-detachable Joy-Cons and it was going to be cheaper than the current Switch and then he also said it would release in September of 2019. All of that came true. So Takahashi Machizuki, who now works at Bloomberg, he switched jobs, whatever, major outlets, has now put out their information about the Switch Pro. He's been putting out this information for a couple of years. Things like it's in the works. Things like it's going to be more powerful. 4K, DLSS, a 7-inch panel, OLED display. The displays are being made by Samsung. It's going into supermass production in July. All the stuff he's put out there. Well, he spoke up last night and he spoke up in a way that shocked basically everyone who read it, except for apparently a whole bunch of people who already knew but were withholding the information supposedly. Maybe because there was an agreement, he gets the exclusive dig on this because he called it an exclusive. He's the first person to break this news. Everyone else came after. So I feel like there might have been some meandering behind the scenes to allow him to have this exclusive take in the middle of the night. He put out there a bunch of stuff. One, the Switch Pro, as the media dubs it. He says as the media dubs it, the Switch Pro is being announced likely before E3, if not at E3. But likely before E3. The reasoning for it to be announced before E3 is because third parties want to showcase Switch Pro versions of games at E3 and they can't do that if it hasn't been announced officially. That and he notes a little bit that Nintendo might be going at the end of the day, or the end of E3, potentially on the final day of E3. And if that's the case, that just makes things even harder for third parties to show it off, because if Nintendo's not going at day one and they're going to announce the Switch Pro at day one, nobody else can really show Switch Pro or advertise that this is Switch Pro enhanced or whatever, because Nintendo didn't announce it, right? So it doesn't make a lot of, like, whatever. It sounds like, based on what he's hearing, it's happening before E3 anyways. So it's not going to matter when Nintendo goes for the sake of other companies. Now, he doesn't know for sure Nintendo is going on the final day. This is just something kind of thrown out there. Eurogamer kind of suggests the same thing. Anyway, so he said that. Announcement likely before E3. Some people are even suggesting it might be announced tonight. Keep that in mind, folks. Tonight is a possibility of Switch Pro getting announced. Now, some people might be like, oh, it'll be announced tomorrow. It's Friday. Nintendo, tomorrow, it's more like Saturday for them. Today's kind of their Friday, time zone differences. So if it is going to be announced tonight would be when it gets announced, if it's going to be announced this week. And there are some people suggesting that Nintendo is very well considering now that this news is broke to just drop the announcement right now because they apparently already have the announcement ready to go. The video is done, they just have to press send. So you might go, but wouldn't Nintendo warn us ahead of time? Wouldn't they give us a lead up like they do for Nintendo Direct? Wouldn't they give us 24 hours notice? No. They gave you no notice on Switch Lite. They gave you absolutely none. They just dropped it on us. No pre-announcement. Here's the video. Congratulations, Switch Lite's announced. That's how they handle Switch Lite. No reason to think they're going to do it any differently with the Switch Pro. So literally, stuff's done. Nintendo's just got to press the publish button. Good to go. That is a thing. He also said that this is the system that has the 4K DLSS and the 7-inch OLED panel. So there's been some people out there being like, oh, maybe this is just going to be a Switch XL, the OLED panel. It's going to be the same specs. I'm telling you, third parties aren't going to care about a Switch XL getting announced before E3. It has zero effect on their game development, zero effect on how their games are going to look in trailers. Third parties wouldn't give a shit about Nintendo announcing a system before E3 if that system doesn't provide more power. So if what Tekka Oshima Shoujuki is talking about and saying things like, hey, they care because they want to show Switch Pro versions of the games, there is no such thing as a Switch XL version of a game. Remember the 3DS XL, not the new 3DS XL, the 3DS XL? There's no such thing as a 3DS XL version of a game. Third parties don't care. It's the same tech. Their games look the exact same, just on a bigger screen. Okay? They do care about the new 3DS, the new 3DS XL. They cared about that and wanted to show versions of that in the past. He also noted that the Switch, what is it, the Nintendo Switch Pro, whatever it's going to be called, he says the final name is only known by a handful of people like Kyoto. Possible that there's more people than they know than that. Like certain higher ups, like Doug Bowser, would probably be someone who would know from Nintendo America, especially if they're going to be dropping it soon. It's possible they are keeping this separated from their traditional marketing teams just because they don't want things to leak, right? Whenever there's something big, like the Switch Lite was actually kept away from their traditional marketing teams as well before they dropped the trailer. After they dropped the trailer, then there was a bunch of follow-up information as the marketing began. But yeah, Nintendo did this with the Lite. They did this with the original Switch. They really kept the names away from most people except the higher ups until they dropped the trailer. Obviously, the people who work on the trailer know, but they're kind of kept under wraps as well. So yeah, he suggested that the name is final. They've already got the final name. They're ready to go. They're just waiting for the right time or the right day. Whether or not they go on the same day as Sony doing a thing and Sonic doing a thing, I have no idea. All right, so there's that. By the way, they haven't even announced their E3 plans yet, right? Crazy. So maybe this is why they haven't announced their E3 plans yet. It's going to phase out the original Switch. Now, not right away. Some people took this to mean, oh, it's going to phase out the original Switch. So by the end of the year, you won't be able to buy the original Switch, which by the way, we're giving away one of those Switches. You see this, bad boy? You see this? We're giving this away. This is the Animal Crossing Nintendo Switch. We're giving this away to your E3. This exact Switch in this box, brand new, never been opened, is being given away to your E3 at our channel. And it's like, it's going to be obsolete by the time we give it away. Okay, it's free. No one's going to complain, but it's going to be obsolete by that. And I will tell you right now, if a Switch Pro is announced before E3, we will give away a Switch Pro during E3. Even if I only get one pre-order in, it will be yours. I'll give away a Switch Pro during E3. I'm just going to, I'm just telling you guys that right now. If a Switch Pro is announced before E3, I will give one away during E3. Now, granted, I'm giving away a pre-order. I'm giving away, you know, that a pre-order for it. Or if you happen to have your own pre-order in for it and you win, I'll just give you the money to pay off your pre-order, right? Or if you already paid it off, I'll give you your money back. So if it's like a $400 system, I'll, you know, Venmo you, PayPal you, $400, right? So I'll pay off your pre-order if you happen to get one. If you don't happen to get one and you win, hey, guess what? I'm buying you a Switch Pro. You might not get it day one. The way pre-orders work, it might be something that comes to my house first, and then I have to reship it out from my house. Either way, getting it within a couple of weeks of launch would still be pretty badass, right? Especially if you can't afford it yourself, especially if you're struggling to get it, because we all know if the Switch Pro is coming this year, it's going to get scalped to hell because everything gets scalped to hell. That's a product like that. Granted, even without the pandemic, it still will be scalped to hell. It happens at the launch of every new piece of hardware. There's always scalper problems. So yeah, that's the thing. We'll definitely give one away during E3 if it's announced. That being said, setting all that information aside, there's more stuff that he says about the Switch Pro. God, I have my notes here. No, I don't have it in front of me. Essentially, the Switch Pro is going to be releasing in September or October. He's not sure which date, which month, but one of those two months, sometime in that 60-day-ish period, it's going to release. I'm leaning more towards October, but it's possible they do it in September. If you remember the Switch Lite, the Switch Lite was announced on June 10th. That was announced on a Monday. It was announced before E3. It was announced on a Monday. They released it in September of that year. Very similarly, we could get Switch Pro now announced releasing in September. Now, I thought it was impossible for them to even imagine releasing a Switch Pro that early if mass production begins in July. Nintendo doesn't care because Nintendo still has the OG Switch and the Switch Lite. This is just another member of the family for this year. The phaseout that Nintendo is planning to do to replace the OG Switch, to replace this Switch with a Pro as the mainstay Switch is an overtime thing, meaning for the rest of this year, you're going to be able to get this Switch no problem. For the beginning of 2022, you're still going to be able to get that Switch no problem. By holiday of next year, however, they might no longer produce this model of Switch, not this Animal Crossing model specifically, but the original version two model of Switch might no longer be in production by holiday of next year. Think of it as a long phaseout. They did this with the 3DS and the new 3DS, by the way. New 3DS came out. It was in short supply. The original 3DS was still in big supply. This sold out, but this was still here. This was doing sales. Then eventually, once it got to the point that they had enough units of the new 3DS to saturate the market with enough to basically satisfy demand for it, then they started phasing out the old model and just going with the 3DS and then a new 3DS and they got rid of it. That's what Nintendo is likely going to do here. They're going to slowly phase us out once they have enough Switch Pro stock in the market to satisfy demand. That's probably going to take six months, a year. By summer of next year they'll probably finally have enough pros in the market to satisfy demand. It's going to be a low level launch. By the way, that likely means you're not going to see exclusives from Nintendo. It's not going to happen. We're not going to get exclusives from Nintendo on this platform. That's what we know from him. In addition to all of this, Eurogamer has come out and confirmed the reports, all of it, the entire report with their own sources, separate from Bloomberg. Eurogamer is now backing this. Emily Rogers is backing this. You guys know Emily Rogers, one of the most famous Nintendo leakers of all time? She's backing this entire report. Nate the hate. If you guys like him, he's come out and he's even suggested that it might get announced today and he's backing it and he's the one who originally brought up the Nintendo might be working on an Excel model and now he's like, ah, no, these reports are correct. Yeah, we're getting this. Yeah, it's happening. He's backing this a little bit. We got IGN with their own independent sources backing this. And there's, I can just go on and on. There's so many outlets that are backing this coverage right now. So many people know this is happening. At this point, it's hard to believe anything about the, like if this doesn't get announced before E3, no, Nate, this doesn't get announced even at E3. If this is not announced at some point in the next two and a half weeks, if this does not release in September or October, this will be one of the biggest news flubs in video game media history. If it does not get announced in the next two and a half weeks, let alone does not come out in September or October, let's say they announced it after E3, right? Let's say they announced it in early July and it still comes out in September or October. Okay, it's still mostly a correct report. But if none of that happens, this will be the biggest flub in gaming journalism history because too many major Bloomberg, IGN, Eurogamer, too many major outlets are backing this. So I'm more willing to bet instead of this being the biggest media flub in the history of video games, that this is instead likely going to be happening. It's a report. This isn't a rumor. Rumors are unsubstantiated. Reports are substantiated. So obviously facts are the number one thing. Confirmations, announcements, right? Those are the big things, like the Pokemon dates, those were announced. I put that in the title of my video, announced. That's official. Reports are the next closest thing to official, but they're not official. They're like the best you can get. Then rumors. And leaks can fall somewhere in between all of that. Depends on how the leaks came about, where the leaks came from. If it came from a data mine, pretty reliable. If the leak is coming from a known Nintendo insider that's gotten a lot of information, right, like Practical Brush 12 or Samus Hunter, yeah, that stuff still falls more towards the rumor side of things than it does towards the report side of things. So leaks are kind of, you know, they're kind of a confuddle in between everything out there. I mean, we've got leaks from Nintendo where their servers were hacked, right? Their servers were hacked and we got a bunch of information. That was real information, real things that happened. So again, leaks all depend on how it happened, where it's coming from, where the data is and can we verify that data. All right, we have a lot of people popping off in the chat. So it's time now. Thank you so much for our mods out there. I don't know what's happened in the chat. I see a couple people getting timed out. Thank you for trying to keep control of things in the chat. I'm sure people are going wild. So this is some of the biggest news we've had this year. So what are you guys' thoughts on this? Question time. If you have any questions, all you need to do is add Nintendo Prime in the chat to get my attention. You do not need to super chat. If you do super chat, your question does jump to the top of the pile. We do a little dance. We hype it up. But you don't have to do that. You could just super chat. Also, we have a five member goal for the stream. If we hit five members, we will do a giveaway live on the stream right now. And every five new members after that will be an additional giveaway on the streams. Every five new members is a giveaway for the entire stream. All right. I want to thank a few people who happened to subscribe. We had Payne subscribed. Orgis, Majoji subscribed. Tahuqa Nuva subscribed. Thank you for that. Manny Boy did as well. Kim did. So yeah, I think that's all the ones I missed. I'm sorry if I missed any others who subscribed. We have a couple of questions coming in. We've got Koush Chello says, what if Metroid Prime is going to be released alongside the Switch Bros? So speaking of release timing, right? So in addition to all this, Samus Hunter noted to Andres Restart behind the scenes that Splatoon 3 is planned to come before the end of this fiscal year. If you remember, it was announced as a 2022 game if it is going to come before this fiscal year, which by the way, I think Splatoon 3 is probably more likely to land next summer because it's always been kind of a summer game, right? The first one was kind of a summer game. The second one's kind of a summer game. Why wouldn't the third one be? Well, it could be because they have Switch Pro on the market and Nintendo wants to keep pushing sales and they've noticed what happened with Animal Crossing when they released it in March, right? Push sales for the next fiscal year as well. They might view it as a great way to cap their fiscal year and really push the next fiscal year off to a great start. So Nintendo does care about stuff like that. So if that does happen, then Splatoon 3 would likely be the March game with Pokemon Legends Arceus being the January game. And I fully believe Twilight Princess HD, Wind Waker HD or something like that would have released in February. That's just my belief. We don't even have those games announced yet. Only Jeff Grubb and some others confirmed that they're coming. They are Wii U games getting ported. I think that's to be expected. We should expect Wii U games getting ported. So that is kind of what's happening there. And I feel like at this point, I need to start making one of those Jeff Grubb game mess like calendars of things that we think are going to happen. Then we obviously know the Pokemon games in November, Longman rumored and talked about Breath of the Wild 2 being a Switch Pro launch game. Not that it won't be on the OG Switch. You have this kind of Switch. It's going to be on there. You have a Switch Lite. You're going to be able to play Breath of the Wild 2. Don't worry about that. We're not going to talk about exclusives at this point. I don't think Nintendo is going to mess with exclusive games on Switch Pro for a while. It'll be Switch Pro enhanced games. Just like new 3DS enhanced games. It's not going to be exclusive. Now third parties, they might go exclusive. We can't do anything about that. But Nintendo themselves is not going to do exclusive games until this fully, until the Switch Pro fully replaces this model. Then you might see a thing or whatever. So this lets me know Breath of the Wild 2. Maybe that's launching in October alongside the Switch Pro. Is that a thing that's going to happen? Maybe. Where's Metroid Prime 4 going to go? Where's Band Out of 3 going to go? What about that 2D Metroid game being made by Mercury's theme that everyone and their moms keep saying is going to happen? What about that? What do we do about that? There's so much unknown at the moment. So much that we just, we can't help but speculate. We can't help but wonder how do all these games fit in? Donkey Kong, rumored to be happening from multiple sources, right? Big sources. Actual major news outlets saying it's happening in addition to all the insiders, right? Whether it's 2D, whether it's 3D, it doesn't matter. Everyone thinks that game's coming this year too. We've got Skyward Sword HD. There's so much stuff coming. We just don't know when, right? Second half of this year, beginning of 2022, looking pretty baller. Shimigami Tensei 5. Can't forget about that game. No more Heroes 3 in August. Can't forget about that game. There's so many games. So many games. That's insane. Let's get to the chat here. We had LFreezy subscribe and Guest B, OGB18. Thank you as well for subscribing. And we got one of those big ones in, boys. And whoop, by the way, we have 300 plus people watching. Drop the likes. How do we only have 100 likes on the stream with 350 people watching? Come on, we can do better than that, guys. Let's raise those likes up. Let's get the hype up. You like this stream if you're excited for Switch Pro. Let's go. Raise the roof. Hyping up. Thank you. Pragmatism for the 20 dollars. And pragmatism says, how long can we expect pre-orders to go live after the Switch Pro is announced? So I don't think pre-orders are going to go live same day. I think they're going to announce. Pre-orders go live. There's going to be a retailer who jumps the gun, by the way, and take pre-orders without even knowing what the numbers are going to be from Nintendo. But I do think what's going to happen is it will be announced. Pre-orders will be available probably either by the end of that week or within 48 hours, right? Usually pre-orders are like, you remember the Switch? They announced the Switch. Pre-orders were available like the next day or the day after. So I feel like we're going to have at least a warning on when you'll be able to pre-order. I hope. I hope Nintendo gives us a warning on it. I hope it doesn't become a free-for-all everyone f5ing various websites and going in person and praying that they get it. You know? Like, I'm scared that they're going to announce it and immediately I'm going to have to jet out to GameStop and just sit outside their store every single day for 24, 48, 72 hours, however long it takes to get a pre-order in. Especially since I'm promising to give one away. I got to make sure I get a pre-order in, right? Ain't buying no scalper crap. Scalpers go away. Ain't buying your shit. But yeah. So how long can we expect for pre-orders to go live after the Switch was announced? I'm expecting within 48 hours. Within 48 hours pre-orders will probably be taken. Maybe it'll be longer. Maybe they'll give us a week or two weeks to plan, save up, budget for it. I have no idea. But Nintendo might not care because Nintendo knows they're not going to have, you know, 10 plus million of these bad boys ready to go at launch, right? They know they're only going to have two, three million worldwide. Because they're still making millions and millions of these millions and millions of lights and they're not relying on the Switch Pro to carry them. It's more so a slow ramp up of Switch Pro in the market. They did the same thing with the new Nintendo 3DS. They did not have 10 million of those bad boys ready to go when it released. They only had a few million and it sold out. And it was sold out continuously for like almost a year before it was finally in regular stock. And then they phased out the OG3DS. And that's why I feel like that's kind of a similar thing they're going to be doing here. Man, so many questions coming in. I missed a Super Chat. Did I? Let me scroll up. Did I miss it? There's so much happening in the stream right now. Let me scroll up here. I am not seeing. Oh yeah, there it is. Sorry, Taker 610. Didn't want to miss it. Thank you Taker 610 for the $2. And he said, I wore out my left Joy-Con stick playing Breath of the Wild. I always forget because like the $2 ones don't pop up at the top. So thank you so much to Taker 610 for the $2. You wore out your left Joy-Con playing Breath of the Wild. I understand that, man. I get it. My Joy-Cons aren't drifting yet, but my nubs are off because my kids basically ripped the nubs off them. So now I play with that raw plastic. It really hurts. So you can imagine I'm not doing handheld very often, although I do have some third-party Joy-Cons that work quite well, especially when they're attached to the side of the system. They work great and they're more ergonomic. So I do use those sometimes. They just don't fit in any of my switch cases. I don't have a switch case big enough for, but besides a giant Dack-It big travel one that's meant for long haul travels, that one would fit it. But that's not your normal switch case that you're going to just throw in your backpack or toss in your car. It literally protects it like it's a $1,000 camera. It's crazy. It's a really cool case, but it's definitely made to be tossed in the cargo bay of a plane. Or if you're going to go long distance, you want to bring your dock and all your accessories, a couple of pro controllers, 20, 30-plus games, et cetera. It's definitely made for long distance travel. Going cross country, want to bring everything with, et cetera. Moving. It's a great thing for moving as well. You won't lose any of your switch stuff with that. All right. We have a lot of questions coming in. Holy crud. You guys are really going off big today. Let me try to scroll up and get to some of these ones I missed. That took a while on that one Metroid Prime question. Don't know when it's going to be announced. Don't know if it's coming alongside. I know I went into a tangent on other games, but I don't think Metroid Prime 4 is going to come out with the Switch Pro. Still think it's like a 2022 game. We're happy to be wrong. Mike C says, pre-orders when? We just talked about that. Ian Ryan says, do you see this Switch Pro having at our Breath of the Wild 2 version? So this is where we're talking about a Zelda version of a Switch. I do believe we will get a Zelda Switch. A Zelda-themed Switch. I don't know if it's going to be a Switch Lite. It's going to be something like this, like the Animal Crossing Switch, you know, with the original Switch, or if they're going to launch with a Zelda Switch model. It's possible all the pros that launch are a Zelda model. I don't think that's going to happen. I think it's far less like a pro model is themed after Zelda. And one of these, while they're still mass producing them, like they'll stop making this one, right? This is the one that's commonly showing up at retail outlets in the U.S. right now. Almost more so than the Neon and the Grey. They're seem to be making more of the Animal Crossing ones. I feel like they're going to make a Zelda one, and they'll phase this one out, right? They'll phase this one out and now it'll be Zelda-themed. So I don't think it'll be a Zelda-themed. Now look, if they announced that E3 is Zelda-themed, one of these, we're giving away that as well. Yes, folks. We're that crazy. We got $3,500 worth of giveaways going on. We'll add to that giveaway pool if Nintendo gives us exciting things that we need to add, right? We already added the Skyward Sword Amiibo to that giveaway pool. Now if we need to add this to it, or like a Zelda version of it, or a Switch Pro, we absolutely will. Don't you worry about that. We'll make it happen. All right. Say what time do you think they'll announce the Switch Pro? I have no idea. They're saying it might be announced today. Some insiders are like, hey, Nintendo is contemplating dropping it today now that the news broke, but they might wait. And remember, all the reports are just saying likely before E3, if not at E3. So within the next two and a half weeks, it's getting announced. Maybe today? Probably won't be tomorrow because Nintendo's closed on Fridays because it's Saturday for them in Japan. So yeah, you know, it could be Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and any of those days moving forward every single week until we get to E3. And then it'll be when Nintendo's thing is. Obviously, one thing we want to announce for sure is Nintendo's E3 plans. Like, we can't forget we still want that announced. And Jeff Grubb said we might get that announced today. That's something that still could come later. Maybe Nintendo is letting the other companies get their run, right? They let Sonic get their run. They're going to let maybe Horizon Forbidden West get their run, and then they'll announce their E3 plans tonight. That's something that could happen as well. Let's see here. Sonic Team is backing it too. That Sonic game is coming to the Switch, the next gen Sonic game. Yeah. So Sonic 2022, by the way, is announced for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, Nintendo Switch. I did not see them mention PlayStation 4 or Xbox One. Think about that. Their next gen Sonic game, or at least the next year, is coming to Switch, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X. How? How is this thing getting a next gen game built for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X? How? How? Now if it's cross gen, okay, fine. But if it's not, how? And by waiting to release till 2022, there's a chance there might be 10, 20, 30 million Switch pros in the market at that point. That is well worth releasing games for, without releasing on this Switch. But we'll see. We'll have to wait and see. Let me see here. Some guy says, I think Nintendo will sell the most hardware of all time this year if it can keep up production. Yeah, if they can make, if they can do enough production, I think this will be the greatest sales year in history of video games in terms of hardware. They almost hit 30 million last year. I think if they can keep up production, and it's a big if, but if they can make enough of them, they are going to sell every unit imagined. Even right now, it's hard to get lights in North, like you go on, even on Amazon, most of the light versions are sold out. Almost all the normal Switch versions are sold out. The same is true of my local retailers. I know some of you guys are going to go, Oh, I was at my local Best Buy last weekend and they had a wall of Switch lights. That's great. You know where that wall of Switch lights is going to go? To everyone ordering them online. They'll ship them out from that store and they're going to vanish too. So reality is the Switch keeps selling out. Now it's in better supply. It's more readily able to get the restocks are coming at a regular rate and they're coming in bigger numbers, which is why people don't panic. It's not that hard to actually get a Switch if you just exercise a little bit of patience. When they come back in stock on websites, they're not out of stock immediately, you know, within five minutes, right? They're in stock for, you know, a number of hours enabling many people to get it. So yeah, it's not hard to get the switches per se, even though it's not as simple as walking into your store and buying one. That's not always true. My local Walmart sold out local Best Buy sold out local Target sold out this Switch that my fiance picked up for the giveaway was the final one at Target. The last one. There's no more at Target. We got the final one. So it's one of those, Hey, you know, this is the thing we have to think about. But yeah, I'm not too worried about it at this time. But yeah, greatest harbor sale year ever. Absolutely one billion percent possible. Thank you for subscribing. Francie and from Pillar to post, what do you think this means for Winmaker, Twilight Princess, Port Timing? I think it's coming next year in February. You know, I think it'll be like one of the capper releases for the 35th anniversary. By the way, if Ocarina of Time HD and Majora's Mask HD are real, I don't know when the hell those games are coming out. Maybe they'll be bundled in. Maybe it'll be Ocarina of Time HD, Majora's Mask HD. This is wishful thinking, but then the Winmaker HD and Twilight Princess HD bundled together for 60 bucks as Zelda 3D All-Stars or something like that. They won't call it 3D All-Stars. You know what I mean? That's a dream. Could happen. Can't rule it out because they did it with Mario, but we'll have to wait and see what happens. Let's see here. I feel like there won't be much Switch Pro exclusive games. But what do you think? I think some third parties are going to start going either Switch Pro exclusive, streaming otherwise. So as an example, like Control. Control is a streaming game on Switch, but it might be able to be a local game on Switch Pro. So there might be options for both there. Hitman 3 could be a native game on Switch Pro, but be a streaming game like it is now on the current Switch. So I think there's going to be some kerfuffle there. Plus, it very likely seems that XCloud is coming to Switch. I'm not just saying that by the way. It apparently leaked at this point that XCloud is coming to Nintendo Switch. So if XCloud is coming to Switch, that's going to handle a lot of the game streaming and then native play for games that are too much for the OG Switch might be possible on a Pro. However, Pro is not like this next generation system. Let's temper those expectations. It's not next-gen. Is it more powerful? Absolutely. Is it more capable? Will it have better CPU cores? More of them. More RAM. A better GPU. Capable of DLSS. Probably. But it's not a new generation. So don't expect this thing to come out and be like, oh, the new Switch, the Switch Pro, it's going to be like a PlayStation 4 Pro. It's going to be an Xbox One X. Think more like Xbox, I don't know, One S maybe? Something like that. Don't think it's going to be that six-terraflot mobile platform. That's not happening. But will it be capable enough to continue to get next-gen downpourts? Yeah, probably. Plus OLED panel, 7-inch display. I don't care that it's still 720p. Run it all native at 720p on an OLED screen. It'd be the only OLED panel in my house. The colors are going to pop. It's going to be awesome. Let's see here. When do you think they'll hear Nintendo's E3 flash? Well, obviously, if we don't hear them by the end of this week, we'll hear them next week, right? Because next week, as of this Saturday, E3 is two weeks away. So yeah, we're either going to hear it by the end of this week, maybe today, or we're going to hear it next week. Jeff Grubb thinks we're hearing about it this week. He thought today might be the day Nintendo targets. We'll see. There's still plenty of time. Maybe it even gets announced while we're live-streaming, right? Won't that be cool? Some breaking news while we live-stream. And I'm sure somebody in the chat will start spamming at me about the breaking news if it happens, since I'm not looking at all my various news outlets at the moment. If you think Breath of the Wild 2 will release this year, I believe so. I have been subscribing to that all along, and I have no reason to doubt it, especially if the pro's coming out. What does Switch Pro's impending announce to me for Breath of the Wild 2? I think it's going to launch alongside it. So whenever Switch Pro comes out, I think that same month Breath of the Wild is coming out. Breath of the Wild 2. Do you think Zelda 3D bundle is coming and when? I don't think so, but I won't rule out the possibility. Taker610 says, I don't think you read my super chat. I did. Sorry. I know it took me a moment. Thanks all. Shout out to the mods for letting me know. Do you think that they will keep SD cards or change the code in them? Nope. It'll still use SD cards guaranteed. Scrolling on down the list. I'm getting through these questions rapid fire so I can kind of catch up with the chat. Do you think there will be two different versions of Breath of the Wild 2? One for Switch and one for Pro? No. It's going to be the same game. It's going to run. Okay, guys. Think about it like this. Hyrule Warriors Legends came out on Switch Pro. Or, I'm sorry, Switch Pro. New 3DS and the base 3DS. It's the same cartridge poured in either game with boosted performance on the new 3DS versus the original 3DS. It's going to be like that. There's not going to be different versions of the games, guys. It's going to be enhanced on Switch Pro due to higher clock rates, higher this, higher that. So better frame rates, better resolution. That's what you should expect. Better frame rates, better resolution. Still going to be on the original Switch. Still going to be the same cartridge. This is not a new generation platform. It will not have two separate versions. It's not going to be like, here's your Xbox One version of a game. Then here's your Xbox Series X version of a game. No, it's not going to be like that. There's not separate versions. It's going to be the same game with boosted performance. Let me see here. Let me scroll down. We had a super chat pop-in that didn't pop up with me. Hyping it up. Man, it's so hype. My mind is swimming. There are so many video ideas right now, but news keeps coming in so rapid. I don't know how many we're going to get to them before the Switch Pro is even announced. That's why I'm like, I got all these Switch Pro ideas and now it's like, oh yeah, but by the time I get to them, Switch Pro might already be announced. Scroll back up to get some of the questions. I missed. Birdman said it is cross generation. It's not, they're not different generations, guys. When people talk about the game, they're not, the Switch Pro is still the same generation as Switch. It's not a new gen. We need to get that thought over in mind. If you expect the Switch Pro to be the Switch 2 and be a next generation system, no, that's not what it is. New Nintendo 3DS, that's what this is. And by the way, if that sounds disappointing, the new Nintendo 3DS was almost twice as powerful as the original 3DS. Didn't seem like it, but it was. Let's see here. Do you think that the performance of Legends Arceus based on the new knowledge of having the Pro coming out sooner than expected? I think some of the performance. Hey, honey. So my fiance walks into my office like, your office looks like crap. I know. I got to get it cleaned before my buddies come over later. But we got this huge stream going on, and I'm like, what are you doing? She's like, nothing. I think she's just going to sit and watch me live stream. I have no idea why. Maybe she'll see the back of my hair and how crappy it looks that you guys can't see. I don't turn sideways very often. This is like the most I turn. I think we had another super chat come in. Hey, thank you for that. Thank you, Paul Gale, for the $199. Thank you so much, man. So his favorite name is Nintendo Switch Plus, Nintendo Switch Pro, Nintendo Switch Advance. Yeah. I think Nintendo Switch Plus is a name I'm really liking. I'd like Super Switch too. I don't think they're going to use that. I really hope Nintendo doesn't go new Nintendo Switch. I feel like it's Nintendo, new Nintendo 3DS, new Nintendo Switch. That kind of feels like what they're going to be doing. Be sure to have your credit card info on Best Buy. Oh yeah. If you guys worry about pre-orders, have your accounts set up at Best Buy. Have them set up at Target, Walmart, Amazon, all your various retailers. Get your credit card information and make sure you have accounts ready. Those are just big pre-order tips in general, because we have no idea when this thing's going to drop and they could drop pre-order same day. People ask me, I think within 48 hours could be same day. I got to be at the ready as well, because obviously the same thing gets announced. We got to give one away, and obviously I got to get one for myself, so we'll see what happens. We got another Super Chat, and you guys are really going hard with the Super Chats right now. You guys are all hyped, aren't you? Super hyped. Thank you, Saker610 for the $2. It says, Switch you, switch me, switch we. I have no idea. Honey, you want to come on? I have another chair and mic set up and everything. No, she's like, no, she's looking way better than me. She's going to make me look bad. That's what it is. She's going to come on. You're going to be like, you're with that? Man, Yulia, what's wrong with you? And I'm actually looking okay today, but I do need a shower and everything, and my hair is still done from yesterday. That's right. Yulia usually does my hair, and she puts so much goop in it, it just stays this way for days. Because you never know when I got to record a video. Like last night, got to get up at midnight, got to get up at 2am. I had two videos to make last night, one with Andres Restart. So like you never know, I got to be ready at all times. I got to be able to wake up looking this good. Yeah, I told you the back looks bad. I know it does. I told you, you're the only one that notices the back is not good. That's because my head was on the pillow that way last night. So let me get back to some of the questions that I might have missed here. My price prediction is $349 without DAC 399 with 4K DLSS document. I don't think so. I think it's going to be $349 across the board. I originally thought the Switch Pro would end up being $399, but when I hear it's going to phase out the Switch, I don't think they're going to phase it out with a $100 model. I think by the time they phase out this model of Switch, they're going to be charging the same price as this model was. So I think they're going to launch at $349.99 and maybe reduce the price to $299 by next year's holiday. That's my prediction anyways. We'll see. It's just predictions at this point. But I appreciate Tony Kanamkurran with your prediction as well. I have previously said $399 seems like a good price point. That was before I didn't think they were going to phase out the old Switch to do that. So I can't pronounce your name. So will it be like Breath of the Wild, Wii U versus Switch? I don't know. The Wii U version ran better. So probably not. Thank you for subscribing, MD. I appreciate you guys subscribing. So I try to shut out as much stuff as we can here, even the people who subscribe. I'm going to add me in the chat if you guys have questions. I'm seeing a lot of people trying to ask questions without adding me. Please add me. And also, can we get this thing over 200 likes? We're at 196. Come on guys. 353 people, only 196. We can do better than that. Come on. We got to make the evil laugh mean something. Come on now. Let's go. There it is. There's the 200 likes. Let's celebrate. Thank you guys so much. All right. No. And this is what my streams are always like. Do you see how crazy this is? When I'm live streaming, it's just me in the room. And I got to be entered. Do you want to, how the hell are you this entertaining when it's so quiet? Not in person. It's way more entertaining watching, isn't it? Yeah. Yeah. That's that's the way it goes. My streams are all set up to look great on camera and in person. But like when you're in person, it's just like a because you don't get the sound effects. When I do the singing, you don't get it. When I when I do the party thing, there's a whole voice of that. You don't get that. I can make it so you can hear it if you want me to. I'm going to be louder than it. So because I don't want to crank the speakers up so it comes back through. These lab mics are working well though. You guys like in the lab mic setup, by the way. I've only been using it for like less than a week. The big mics are now in storage. They'll come back out. One of those mics I'm going to set up over here for by the main main recording computer for just recording purposes. What? Hot sauce. Hot sauce baby this evening. Honey, in here because you're waiting for this. Guys, for those who don't know my fiance is literally to my right sitting on the couch in my studio. Go for it. Now they know they've known you've been here for a while. I've mentioned it already. What do you hope the Switch Pro ads says Tyler writes that the switch doesn't have better Joy-Cons get rid of Joy-Con drift please please and Joy-Com wobble. That's what I want. Better rails, better, better designed Joy-Cons. Those are like the biggest things. Then obviously I really want that OLED seven inch panel to be legit. I obviously want it to be more powerful. I want a better kickstand if they're still going to have a kickstand. Yeah, I mean I'm kind of cool with the way the switch is now but I just want some design improvements. No bezel or almost no bezel and hello OLED rumors seven inches please be true. Please be true. Sock says hey Sock welcome to the stream. The first time I've ever seen you stream. He says it's currently 3 a.m. Definitely the first time I've ever seen you stream since I don't stream during the day. I think a lot of first timers I'm seeing right now because I don't usually stream during the day but I'm busy tonight. We got a playoff game tonight for the Milwaukee Bucks versus the Miami Heat. It's very possible that early tomorrow morning we get just like the light tomorrow morning at 8 Eastern will still be Friday in Japan. What do you think? The light was announced on Monday. Sorry to burst the bubble. There's this thought process going around that the light was announced on a Friday. It was not announced on a Friday. It was announced on June 10th, 2019. I went back and looked. I'll go back and confirm again. When I looked at it last time it was on Monday. Maybe I was looking at the wrong year. I'm pretty sure that it was Monday. Oops. Let's go forward here. This is not 2023. Go back to 2019 here on the old computer. Pretty sure that it said Monday unless I was on the wrong year but I'm pretty sure I was on the right year. Pretty sure it said 2019. I went back to double check this before the stream. Yeah. It was announced on June 10th so that was a Monday. So it was definitely not announced on a Friday. It might have been released on a Friday. That could be true because it released in September. I can't remember what day it was released. That could have been a Friday release. John MC slapped that booty. Yeah. You know, it's a thing that happens sometimes. Birdman. What about better load times? Really? Have you not been on my streams? You know how it goes. What about better load times? She's like, did you really just say that? We want to do a lie. You don't lie around here. Probably not. There's pretty good noise cancellation on these. That's why I said if you wanted to come over you could. You don't even have to be on camera. I have a whole other microphone. You just want to react to people talking. I have another computer although it works. Remember that laptop? Remember this one? I didn't, you weren't home and I thought maybe he's with you. I have no idea because Eric was going to bring his and he forgot and this one technically, it technically, technically works. You just can't touch the screen. And it's really, really slow, really slow. God, I can imagine how Eric was struggling, trying to read the chat when it was going like. Let's see. But it worked. He looked up a few things during the podcast. Let me see. Improved Joy-Con design for the pro version could be why they haven't addressed them. Possibly. Moving on to the next question here. Your camera is so good. You can see the scratches on your TV. Yeah, these scratches from my kids. This used to be the main TV upstairs. Every now and then it's got some color issues and I have to like pound it and then the colors come back. So we replaced it upstairs with a smaller model that made you a little bit grumpy. What did I say? It's smaller. Sorry. I didn't realize that. I should have measured the TV and bought the same size. I didn't realize that this was bigger than 50 inches. It's a 65 inch apparently. Oh, no, that thing's hard as hell, though. Knock me the hell out with that thing. She's going to throw this heart thing at me. Some fans at me. Anyways, but yeah, dude, this, this camera is a Lumix G9 4K 60FPS. It's actually running at 4K 60 to the computer. When I down sample the 1080P running 4K streams for you guys, it's pretty impossible. A lot of these platforms don't support 4K streaming very well. You can do it on YouTube. It's just extremely hard. I have the internet for it. It's just, it's not, it's not reliable enough. So we just down sample 4K, which it looks crisper than native 4K, but I'm glad you like, like the look of the camera, electric TDS. You farted. I heard it. I did not fart. You might have heard maybe the chair squeaky, but I did not fart. I'm guarantee I did not fart. I'd smell it as Julia. June 10th was a Wednesday. What the hell? Okay. How is that possible? Unless my calendar, what's today? Today's Thursday, right? Thursday to 27th. Okay. I go back in the calendar. I'm telling you, I go back on the computer unless my computer calendar is wrong, which very well could be. June 19, June 2019, June 10th was Monday, 11th, Tuesday, 12th, Wednesday, 13th, Thursday, 14th, Friday. That's what my computer calendar right now going back to 2019 says. It says June 10th was a Monday. Now let me check my phone. We'll double check on the phone calendar because it's possible maybe this computer's calendar is wrong. I doubt it. What do I mean? We've got to double check. So let's see here. Let's go back to June of 2019, see what the phone says. Again, phone says June 10th is a Monday. So there you go. Let's see here. You might be looking at 2020. By the way, light was announced in 2019 guys, released in 2019. Hi, Nate. I'm new to your streams. Thank you, official Max. Wolf, welcome. Your podcast last night, you were watching our podcast last night and I agree with everything you said. Well, thanks. I mean, people don't have to agree with me. It's cool. I know there's people in this chat that don't agree with some of my takes and that's fine. We're all allowed to have our own opinions. I just see what Yuli is doing. I apologize for nightmares that might occur. It was July 10th, not June. Was it July 10th? Hold on. Maybe I have the month wrong. Switch light announcement date. Oh yeah, sorry. You're right. That's why I'm throwing off. It was July 10th. Okay. Thank you for that correction. See, I don't always get things like that. So thank you for that. So yeah, it was a Wednesday. It was July 10th. I don't know why I kept thinking June. It was July 10th, released in September. Thanks for the correction. I really appreciate it. I probably should go delete my tweet that has the wrong date on it too. Whatever. You know, everyone makes mistakes. I'm not perfect, guys. I've been making a lot of content over the last 24 hours. Actually, I didn't make any yesterday morning at all, like at all. All my videos came like after my kids got home. I don't even know how I got got a video out while they were here. It can be a bit wild. Let's see here. So thanks. Thanks for you. Thank you so much for the correction sounding by the best. I always appreciate being factually corrected. Is the Switch Pro going to be announced tonight? Some people are saying Switch Pro is going to be announced tonight. I don't know. I'm not Nintendo. I don't have any people talking to me behind the scenes saying that beyond the same people that are already talking about it publicly. Direct few games. Emily Rogers kind of joked about it, said it's a joke, but also said, but I mean, is it a joke? You had Jason Schreyer put out a tweet saying, hey, it might happen tonight. He's not sure. He deleted the tweet because people took it as confirmation. It's being announced tonight. He said, no, it might be announced tonight. As all he said, he's hearing that Nintendo is considering hitting the send button. Essentially, we talked about this earlier, Nintendo has the announcement ready to go according to many media members. The trailer, the announcement thing is done. It's ready to go. It's already uploaded to YouTube. It's not quite uploaded to Twitter yet, but it's uploaded. It's ready to go. All Nintendo needs to do is press send. That's why Jason Schreyer is like, Nintendo is talking right now because this news broke about just dropping it today, dropping it tonight specifically after everyone else is done doing their announcements. Kind of cap the day with the Switch Pro announcement. And Nintendo has done this. They've capped it with Nintendo Direct announcements before, right? I know we talk about, oh, that usually happens in the morning. Sometimes they cap the day with an announcement. So it's possible. I want to see their, I want to see their E3 stuff announced, personally. But maybe, maybe they haven't announced their E3 stuff yet because they're dropping this first. Then maybe they want to drop this, then announce their E3 plans. So we'll see. Do you think Breath of the Wild 2 will be announced with the Switch Pro? I'm very curious what games they would show off with it considering E3 is coming out, right? I think Breath of the Wild 2, a game that's already announced, would make sense. I think showing enhanced versions of currently popular games like Animal Crossing, maybe Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, maybe Mario Odyssey, like showing enhanced versions of, you know, things that would look better, things that aren't running in 60 FPS, running in 60 FPS as an example. I think they're going to do that. I don't think there's going to be a huge focus on the new games. I think they're going to save that for E3. But I do think there'll be one showcase title that hasn't come out yet. Is it going to be Splatoon 3? That's been announced and shown off. Is it going to be Breath of the Wild 2? I'm hoping Breath of the Wild 2 for everything. Breath of the Wild 2 to the moon and back. That's my most anticipated game. Because you guys know, Breath of the Wild 2 comes out. We'll probably do a long play live stream. You guys remember at launch of Switch in Breath of the Wild, we did long live streams, like eight hour live streams. Probably have something like that happening when Breath of the Wild 2 comes out. I got to organize it, especially if it comes out during the summer. Actually, if it comes out during the summer, it won't be too bad. Probably get my parents or something to watch the kids. Anyways, we got a lot going on this summer though. So I'm kind of hoping that knowing my luck, we're going on a cruise at the end of July, the Switch Pro and Breath of the Wild 2 are launching like the last week of July. And I'll be like, no. But I'm going on the cruise. Screw it. Way more important to me. But I guess I'll just have to hope they don't sell my pre-order by the time I get home. Now what will happen is I'll probably get a ship to my house and then I'll have Eric come over and have him bring it into the house so it doesn't get stolen. And then we'll deal with that when we get back from the cruise. Waiting for the storm to pass so I can upload your video. Oh man, dude, storms can be the worst sometimes when it comes to that stuff because you don't want power to go out. You don't want your computers to get fried. If it's on a power brick, it's not supposed to, but we all know those power bricks sometimes don't work. I've lost electronics in this house to electrical surges, despite being on a power brick. And yeah, the thing says, oh, if that happens, you're supposed to get your equipment replaced for free. I've called some of these power brick companies. Good luck getting them to buy you anything. Because you have to definitively prove it was their power brick that yeah. So good luck with that. It's just like most lifetime guarantees or most insurances. Yeah, you have to definitively prove and it's almost impossible to definitively prove anything. If the pro is revealed today, you have to wear the orange dress. I am not putting that orange dress back on. Yuli is like, you can't once you're sexy. Yeah, I'm not putting that orange dress back on. Those aren't some old live streams when we used to do quite a bit of heavy drinking. There would be a orange dress for my fiance that's like a gypsy dress that's really sexy on her, not so much on me, but I've worn it a couple of times on the stream. Won't be bringing that back. I don't think for a while. There is a thing. There's going to be a competition during E3 between Eric and I and whoever loses does have to dress as tingle for an hour during the live stream. So that is something that's going to happen. It's not going to be the greatest tingle costume ever, right? Because like we don't have one. I thought about ordering one, but they're like 80 bucks. So probably just going to go with the homemade style one, but hey, it'll still work. It'll still be funny. And the person will probably overheat a little bit because part of it part of the costume is like a jacket style thing. So good luck with that. Basically, I'm presuming Eric's going to lose. It'll probably be me knowing my luck. It's going to be me. Just like we're going to have one where the loser has to do three straight shots of tequila. I have a, that's probably going to be me. Let's see here. I'm scrolling on down your wallets ready. Credit card here, Nintendo. Take it. Yeah, right. Here's my, here's my credit card. Dang it. I need to, I need to buy the pro. I want it now. The Chad, the Chad 536 says, what did you think of Sonic Central? I thought it was underwhelming also. Have you, have you played Sonic Unleashed? And if not, will you on stream sometimes? Sonic fans love the daytime stages. So I thought the Sonic thing was fine. I don't know what people expected. We got the collection that included Sonic and Knuckles like, like they talked about beforehand that was kind of leaked. We got the, what the, the Sonic colors, you know, the, the Unleashed thing, you know, that, that's a great game coming back in HD for 40 bucks. We got the next gen Sonic game announced, not shown, but announced as coming next year, also coming to Switch along with PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X. We got, we got a decent slew of announcements. Like what, I have a question for Sonic fans that were disappointed by the Sonic 30th anniversary event today. What did you expect? How many games did they announce? What the hell did you expect them to do factually? Think about everything they gave us and then, then ask yourself, what else did you want them to do? Announce the next gen Sonic game. Announce the amazing ports and remasters. Announce things like a giant collection, including a game that's never re-released before. What the hell else did you want from them? Because your favorite game didn't get remastered, maybe? I don't know what upsets you. I thought it was one of the best Sonic presentations, maybe ever, personally, but that's, that's me. I'm not a huge Sonic fan. Maybe Sonic Man the best in the chat. He's a big Sonic guy. He can let me know. Maybe, maybe it really was crap and maybe he'll tell me why. Maybe you guys will tell me why. Let's see here. We have a question coming in from Cam. Natal Miles says, there's been a lot of speculation over many games and franchises. Surely they won't all be blown out of E3. I can agree with that, right? From all the games that have been rumored and speculated and leaked, definitely can't get everything in E3, right? That's just not possible. Damn, 345 viewers. Yeah dude, just wait for E3. You guys, we're at 366 right now. Wait for E3. We have a massive E3 event going on. I might as well tell you guys right now. I'll get to that super chat in a moment. I'm going to tell you guys right now, we have a massive event going on for E3. Yeah, we're live reacting to everything as it happens at E3. You can catch all of E3 actually happening right here at the channel. We also have gaming competitions where you can compete in Smash Bros, Mario Kart, etc. against me and Eric. And yeah, if you beat us, you win a prize. If you don't, so yeah, that's the kind of thing. You don't win anything then. Better luck next time. Also, we're giving away things. Giving away things like this. This is one of the giveaway prizes, one of our big ticket items. We're giving away this Fusion Pro controller, all the stuff back here. A whole much more that we already put back in storage. So yeah, we're giving away $3,500 for the stuff. Hundreds of video game codes that will be open for giveaways worldwide. Everything from Indie Games to AAA games to Nintendo games. We have a nice mix. All of them highly rated games. We have potentially even a partner that's coming out. We definitely have a partner who's providing chairs for us. So Eric and I can sit in some nice chairs the whole time and not actually break our backs and our butts for how long we have to sit. So yeah, we have a lot going on for E3. Big extravaganza, pre-shows, post-shows, special guests. We're going to have HMK on. We're going to have Game Over Jesse on. We're going to have Andres Restart on. We're going to have the Young Cavs on. We're going to have Nintendo Academy on. And a few other people I'm in talks with right now coming on and trying to, hey, Bob Wolf, if you're watching, I'm trying to get you on. Answer your damn DMs. Bastard. Don't make me reach around for your phone number. I don't want to freak you out. I know some people. I know people. I'm just kidding. I'm not going to text them. But yeah, we have a bunch of a huge show planned for live streaming probably 12 hour days over the course of four days. Plus, we have a podcast to release during that time. At least one podcast, if not multiple. And then also we have additional coverage for all the stuff that happens outside of the E3 live event. You know, we'll have individual videos on that as well. So we're going to be busy. I'm more or so wondering when the hell I'm going to sleep, but it is what it is. E3 time is the lack of sleep time is what I like to call it. That's why we already are pre-buying a bunch of caffeine stuff. Obviously a lot of water as well. You need to balance it out. You don't want to die. You got to have a lot of water too. See caffeine and normal water. See you got it. You got to balance her out. So let's see here. You don't want to do that. So let's get to that super chat quick. And thank you buzzy bird for the 199. Thank you so much buzzy bird says, Nathan hate says Nintendo's E3 hype is at 9 out of 10. Oh yeah. Oh yeah. He was already pretty hyped for it. And now that the Switch Pro is going to be at least part of it, you know, it might be announced there or if it's announced ahead of time, they're still going to talk about it at E3. Yeah. Yeah. Hype, my hype's cranked to 11. There is no 9 out of 10 for me. I'm expecting Nintendo's best E3 of all time. That's my expectation. I'm probably going to get burned. But you know what? Sometimes you got to get hyped. See here. Ending of Sonic was bad, but I feel the ending was the movie. Okay. The Chad 536, that's all I really want. That plus they didn't put Sonic 3 and Knuckles and Wisery. And yeah, but at least we get it. It's better than not getting it. I agree. Things could always be done better, but I'm not going to be disappointed. That's like saying, you know, Super Mario 3D All-Stars. I was disappointed that Mario 64 wasn't in widescreen, but it didn't really diminish, you know, the game itself. Sonic Central was underwhelming. It wasn't bad, but they should have focused more on games. I mean, I felt like there was plenty of game announcements, but I understand, like, you know, here's the thing. It's kind of like Pokemon, right? Sonic has grown into like a multimedia thing, so I can't really get too angry about it. But that's me. I'm also not like a massive Sonic guy. I enjoy Sonic games. I'm not like, you know, and I like the Sonic movie, so I'm not like this big, massive mega Sonic fan. I play the game, but, um, Doc, I just said Sonic fans wanted Sonic Mania 2 more than a teaser for a game that's been in development for four years, an underwhelming compilation, movie news, and remasters of Sonic Adventure. What about the HD version of Sonic Colors? Like, we're forgetting that announcement. I don't know. Again, I'm not a big Sonic guy, so maybe for hardcore Sonic fans, it was disappointing. All I know is that if those were similar announcements and it was a Zelda thing, I would have been happy with that. But maybe my expectations aren't that. Teddy Bear says, stop lying. Nintendo Switch isn't coming. What? Wait a second. Nintendo Switch. I have it right here. Right? Am I blaring? Is this a Switch? Pretty sure this is a Switch, right? It says Nintendo Switch on the side. What do you mean Nintendo Switch isn't coming? I think it already arrived. It's like four years on the market. I don't know what you're talking about, man. I'm just saying. What do you mean Nintendo Switch isn't coming? I mean, I guess you're correct because it's already here. Kenny Ars says, I expected at least some confirmation on the direction of new Sonic games. Cast information for characters and honestly hopefulness towards Sonic Adventure Remastered. Yeah, it's kind of one of those expectations versus reality, right? My expectations for E3 are turned up to an 11 at the moment. It might come, you know, the actual presentation is probably going to fall somewhere at like the seven range, right? So it's like my expectations are going to be higher than what we're probably going to end up with. So when you hype your expectations, that's the one thing about overhyping yourself. When you put your expectations so high, you're probably going to get burned a little bit. My expectations for the Sonic event weren't that high. I didn't even expect us to get their next-gen Sonic game announced. So to me, that alone was worth it, even though we didn't see any gameplay. I always love to see gameplay. Also, the new Sonic game which is coming 2022 is only shown. A CGI trailer, Splatoon 3, was shown and it's coming then, I think it was 2023 actually. So no, Sonic, the next-gen Sonic game is announced for 2022. Splatoon 3 is also coming in 2022. They are both 2022 games. I'm really interested in your thoughts on Xbox Game Pass for Switch slash the Switch Pro. It may be more good with the Switch Pro with its higher power for compatibility. No. Here's what I'll say. XCloud can run on a potato. XCloud is a streaming service. Okay? Getting Game Pass on Switch is going to happen, if it does happen at all, through XCloud. XCloud is a streaming pro. It can run on a little tiny little Chrome dongle. It can run on your little Roku's for your TVs. Game Pass does not need super powerful hardware. It runs on Chromebooks in a browser. Chromebooks in a browser. Dual core Chromebooks in a browser. It runs. You do not need powerful hardware for XCloud. It's a misnomer. The only thing the pro could give an advantage of is the potential of streaming a 4K version. That is one thing the pro could give an advantage of, that you could stream a 4K stream of a game. But right now, XCloud hasn't really put out 4K streams of games yet on any of the devices in beta. So they haven't even achieved that yet. We got to pause for a second here because... Of course, you just said butt cheeks. I mean, cool. If you want a super chat to say butt cheeks, I guess I'll read it out. So let's see here. So that's my take on XCloud. You don't need more powerful hardware to run XCloud. You don't. We've seen it run on worse. And it runs fine. Scrolling on the list here. Thank you, mods, for doing your best here. Make sure you guys don't spam the chat with the same question. If I don't get to your question, you probably didn't at my name. If you at Nintendo Prime in the chat, I'll get to your question. If you spam your question, or you spam all caps all the time, our mods are going to get rid of that because it just clutters the chat. Makes it less enjoyable for everyone else. Kenny R says, only three games were announced and two of them were ports. Didn't I just go over more than two? Sonic Origins is the collection pack. So there's one with a bunch of games in it. There's the brand new Sonic game. Then there's Sonic... Yes, that's three games. What's wrong with that? I don't know. My expectations for Sonic are in the gutter. So most Sonic games... I'm sorry, I'm going to offend Sonic fans. Most Sonic games are hot trash. They're garbage here. I hate saying that. Maybe it's going to be for people to unsubscribe. Most Sonic games aren't very good. They're overhyped trash. Sonic Mania? Pretty good. Sonic Colors? Yeah, that was all right. I don't think it's as good as people make it out to me, but it was all right. Sonic the Lost World? Best Sonic game ever. Outside of that, Sonic basically hasn't been good since Sonic 1 and 2 and 3. All the other Sonic games are trash, in my opinion. Now you can say, oh, you just don't like Sonic, and that's fine. You're free to like the games you want to like. But to me, I don't have high expectations for Sonic, because probably the best Sonic game to come out in like the last, I don't know, eight years is Sonic and Mario at the Olympic Games. And without Mario, would anybody even care about that game? I can argue the movie is better than any Sonic game that's ever come out. I know. People are going to get mad about that. It's just my opinion, guys. I don't have to like every game that you guys like. Let's see here. I'm scrolling on down. Who's your main in Smash? I want to prep. You ain't learning anything about who I play in Smash Bros. Nice try though. Every stream someone wants to try to find out who I play in Smash so they can practice. Little annoyed that they won't give me the vacation off, makes covering E3 harder. Yes, that is definitely harder. Thankfully, Eric has helped me cover E3. He's got some PTO he was able to use to help me cover E3. Although he's vanishing near one of the days for a little bit. That bastard can't blame a family. He's got a family thing going on. Family over this kind of stuff, obviously. Does Xbox Game Pass even benefit Nintendo? I'm sorry. Does a subscription service running through the cloud benefit Nintendo? I don't know. Would you like to pay $15 a month to Microsoft to stream Halo Infinite, Sea of Thieves, Fable, the next Elder Scrolls, all the Bethesda games? I don't know. Does that sound like something that would be of interest to people on Switch? If you're at home docked on your TV, connected to Internet, especially if you have a wired connection, why wouldn't that be of interest to people? It's cheap and you get hundreds of games. It just makes the Switch that much more appealing. And if you think, oh, Microsoft wouldn't do that, Microsoft doesn't care about platforms. They care about where is Game Pass available. They want Game Pass and XCloud on everything. They want it on PlayStation 5. Sony just won't let it happen. So, of course, the benefits. I'd rather have that than not. Oh my gosh, I could potentially pay Halo Infinite this winter on my Switch. Streaming in my room, chilling in my room, holding my Switch in bed, playing Halo Infinite. That might be a thing that exists by the end of the year. That's crazy. It doesn't mean it's not going to be better on my Xbox Series X or the PC. Of course it will be, because I could play it natively on the Xbox Series X. But still, pretty cool that I can go anywhere in my house and potentially be playing Halo Infinite multiplayer with you guys. I don't know. That sounds like something I'd be interested in. Now, I'm saying it's going to happen. We don't know that Game Pass. The leak is that XCloud is coming to Switch. Game Pass hasn't really been talked about much. It might not be there at launch. I'm thinking more like XCloud is going to come. Game Pass might be something down the line. I don't see why Nintendo went on Game Pass. It doesn't hurt them. Let me see here. What year do you think the Switch will last to, assuming it isn't treated like a phone? I assume it's going to be treated like a phone. And we're going to keep this thing going for another decade with multiple Switch releases. If they do treat it as they're going to be a next-gen platform, 2023 feels like the good year. Maybe 2024 if Switch is still killing it. I guess Switch is still going 25 plus million a year in 2023. They're not going to release a new platform. They'll wait. They'll wait another year. So 2024 at the latest, I'm thinking 2023 before they do next-gen. Hopefully they do it before I'm 40. That would be great. One more platform before I officially feel like I'm at middle age. Are you okay over there, honey? Cleaning? Oh, you feel like just creating more garbage? Yeah. Journey 3 as well. I'm thinking of getting some of those party poppers. But the office is going to be clean then. But still, I got to clean all that up after. I think it might be cool for like a big announcement happens. You know, guys, I like practical effects. Oh, so Aiden's got three. Okay. My son has a kid birthday party this weekend. Hoping that more kids kind of, because we have to pay for 10. We have three from us. That's three. Okay. So we got four more spot. Hopefully at least four more. Oh, she's not at all. Chris said she was going to drop her off yesterday at the party on Sunday. Okay. Melody doesn't want to come. That's her choice. Oh, we have a big one coming in. So thank you, the eighth dark for the $20.69. Did you have to throw in the 69? Did you have to throw in the 69? Is that because Yulia is here? What would be the 69 mafia up in here? Thank you for the $20 and 69. He had a Russian mafia. Oh boy. Yeah. She has Russian. So that's not good. I don't need the Russian mafia in this house. How would game pass? What? Should I leave? So the eighth dark says, how would game pass slash S Cloud benefit Nintendo? How would Nintendo make money off it? Talking about Nintendo to the company, not the gamer. Okay. So here's how it works on other platforms or is planned to work according to Phil Spencer. The benefits of the platforms that have X Cloud on it, to have game pass on it, is a portion of people that subscribe to the service through that platform will get like a 20% cut to Nintendo of the subscription fee. So let's say you're not part of X Cloud. You're not part of game pass. It comes to Switch. Through Switch, you go through the Switch eShop and you subscribe to this service or even through the app. You subscribe to the service. Nintendo will get a 20% cut of that fee, of that subscription fee. So Microsoft will give up some of their cut to the platform to have it on that platform. The benefit of Microsoft is obviously they're still getting, you know, the other 13 bucks out of that and it grows the user base. And the bigger the user base is, the more they can do that. This happens with Netflix, by the way, happens with Hulu. If you didn't know, if you subscribed to Hulu through Switch, Nintendo gets a cut of that subscription fee. So yeah, that's the benefit. Nintendo makes money. And it also increases the value of their platform. So yeah, it's a huge benefit to Nintendo. I did get Sunday and Tuesday off at least, so that's good. What about Sonic Adventure Battle 2? I thought that was the best. I didn't like it. But again, different strokes for different folks, right? Who's your main on Smash Bros? Again, not answering that question. You can keep asking R. I'm not going to be answering that question. Who my main character that I play as in Smash Bros? Yeah, Yulia doesn't even know, because she doesn't play Smash from me. I've been practicing Smash on the side, getting ready for E3. You guys are in trouble. My skill level is jumping exponentially every single week. Let me see. There is a fan 3D Sonic game I want to try called Sonic Omens, okay? Why am I getting Ema e-mail Jandy? What's going on? Why are you adding me? I don't see... You want to clarify that bird man? Did I miss something from that person? I'm not seeing anything in the chat. Tyler writes, what did you think we'll see from Zelda this year, not Counting Breath of the Wild 2 or Skyward Sword HD? A Zelda 35. It's kind of like the Tetris 99, the Mario 35 thing. I think we're going to get something like that. Outside of that, I don't know if we're getting anything else out of this year. Maybe the mobile game. There has been, Nintendo confirmed a Zelda mobile game like 3 years ago, could see a mobile phone game come out that helps push sales for Breath of the Wild 2 the same way that if you guys remember Animal Crossing Pocket, can help push sales for Animal Crossing New Horizons, I can see them doing something like that as well this year. Otherwise, I think next year, unless Breath of the Wild 2 is next year, then we'll get Twilight Princess HD or something this year. But I don't know, Ocarina Time HD, Majora's Masked HD, those are floating out there as well as possibilities I'm not going to ignore them. Why do you think Sony won't allow Game Pass on their platform? Competitive reasons. They do not want to give Microsoft money. Same reason they didn't want to do cross play with Microsoft. They are being competitive. They think Microsoft is a direct competitor, and they think Game Pass is going to kill sales on their platform. Data is coming out that Game Pass is actually increasing sales. Surprisingly, I didn't see that coming. According to Microsoft, Game Pass has led to an increase in game sales on their platform. Now, Game Pass offers discounts to buy the games, so that could be why. So yeah, game sales are actually going up as a Game Pass. Some people are subscribing to Game Pass just to get discounts to buy the games. That's what's happening factually. So it's actually helping Microsoft. Sony doesn't care because it's not going to help them with their games. If anything, a third party game comes on PlayStation 5, comes on Game Pass, Sony is going to make less money because they're going to download it off Game Pass instead of playing it on Sony. So yeah, it's spending 70 bucks to get it on PlayStation 5. It's all competitive stuff. Sony's being ultra competitive. Is that a surprise? You guys remember when the Xbox One flubbed at E3 back in 2013, and Sony came out and literally insulted Xbox and its advertising and marketing? Sony very much wants to slay Microsoft. They want Microsoft out of the industry, so they're not going to do anything that's a benefit to Microsoft. Even if it benefits their consumers. Or they'll do it reluctantly. Like now they're starting to do cross play, but reluctantly. Okay, honey, probably just till 2.30, I think. Because I got a shower still and the kids are coming home. Why were you waiting to get a little freak out? Get your freak out, get your freak out. Are you sure? Am I going to get in the shower and you're going to join me? No. I mean, she has my princess Zelda. Of course, I'm Link, and Link never gets the princess in the end, so maybe that's not a good comparison. Just like Mario and Peach. Mario never gets Peach in the end. Is he just chilling in there? Oh my God. Can we not talk about the dog? Oh, geez. Anyways, yeah, I got about another 20 minutes here. What do you think? Oh, we already read that. Why? Man, there's so many questions. Let's just zoom down to the bottom here. I'm not going to be able to get through all of them. I apologize if I don't get to your guys' questions. We have a popping off stream right now. What announcement is happening today? Is it like a direct? I have no idea what's going on. We don't know that anything's going to get announced today. Jeff Grubb suggested we might get E3 announcements today. Other insiders are saying Nintendo is considering. Like Jason Schreier said, Nintendo is considering the possibility of announcing the Switch Pro today. Like they have it all ready to go. They just have to hit send. But nobody's like, we're not for sure getting anything announced from Nintendo today. Let's put it this way. Next week, next week should be the week we should start to expect Switch Pro and E3 announcement. But some people are thinking it might happen today. So we might get something today, but if we don't, it's not disappointing. It'll be next week. Who knows? Tomorrow could be E3 announcement. I mean, E3 announcement might not matter if Nintendo is open or closed, because that could just be automatically set to go live kind of thing. So E3 announcement could technically still happen Friday, I suppose. But they're not going to announce the Switch Pro on a day that Nintendo has their employees at home. Tagged you on Discord, your favorite CEO. What'd you tag me on Discord for? If this is some joke and I'm wasting my time on a joke, the Sonic Man likes to do these jokes to me on Discord all the time. I like this fake news stuff. Oh God, Jim Ryan. Anyways, yeah, see you. He's always a joke-stern. I'm in the middle of a stream, man. I got more important questions to get to. The Chad 536 says, I feel like Sonic 06 level design was good, but everything else was bad, which is why Project 06 on PC is pretty good. Maybe. Tell the Wright says, Do you think the Nintendo Switch Online game app gets an update with the Switch Pro? I hope so, but I don't know. I really hope so. That smile on Jim Ryan's creepy. I think every time Jim Ryan smiles, it's kind of creepy. He's just got a creepy smile. He should just frown more often. No, no. That's actually bad for your mental health and physical health to frown more often. So don't just, I don't know. He can't help the way he looks when he smiles. Unless it's all fake smiles, then it's like, okay, maybe your real smile's better, but maybe he's just always grumpy, so he fakes it. Do you think Nintendo will do the thing and make a digital-only Switch? Hi from South Africa as a first-time subscriber. Thank you, Qashon Singh, for subscribing to the channel. I appreciate it. I think you're going to absolutely love what we have going on for E3. We have probably the biggest show for E3 on YouTube. I think I can actually say that. I don't think there's even the pro outlets like IGN are doing bigger shows than us. Now IGN might have developer interviews. We don't have that, but everything else we're doing. I think we're going to be the biggest E3 show on YouTube. So I'm glad you subscribed. Hopefully you really enjoy what we got going on. I mean, just look at our splash screens. I mean, look at this. Doesn't that look good? Oh, what about this screen? Yeah, doesn't that look good? And that's just like the tip of the iceberg of what's happening near an E3. So we have giveaways galore, gaming competitions, live reactions to everything, special guests. It's going to be awesome. I can't wait. So I'm glad that you subscribed. I don't think it's going to be digital only. I don't think they're going to go that route. Not yet. I think Nintendo is going to be the last bastion of not releasing a digital only platform. I mean, basically, I think it's going to be like a decade before we see a system come out that doesn't allow cartridges or disks. But I presume they're not going back to disks, but we'll see. I know personally I test out games on Game Pass. And if I like it and it's a good sale, I buy it. Exactly. Game Pass is great. It's like even if you just view it as you subscribe and use it as a demo program, right? I'm going to demo this game and then buy it if I want to keep it forever. A lot of people I think are doing that on Game Pass. I don't. I just enjoy the money savings and go, Hey, you know, if I really want to buy it, like if it gets to a point, it's going to get removed from Game Pass. Maybe then I'll consider buying it. But otherwise, and by the way, they don't remove games from Game Pass very often. It happens very rarely that games get removed. And if it happens, usually a third party. So it doesn't happen that often that I even need to worry about it. But I'm just enjoying the game savings. And usually I only play through games once anyways. So if I just play through the game once, I don't really need to buy it. Very few games do I go back to. Zelda is one of the few franchises I actually do go back to and play again. But I don't do that with a lot of franchises. Especially now that I'm adult, parent, three kids. I just don't kind of have that kind of time that I used to when I was younger to replay games. So I get through a game, I move on. I'm almost, I'm like literally, I think I'm in like the final bit of Miles Morales. And then I'll probably never play that game again. By the way, Miles Morales is fantastic. Fantastic. I actually kind of like that it's on the shorter side. I'm playing that on PlayStation 5. Let's see here. If you become Link on Halloween, you won't be able to talk. I have been Link on Halloween and I've done the not talking thing. I've done a lot of, yeah! I've done all that on Halloween before, several times. Didn't Link technically get Zelda at the end of Breath of the Wild? They walk off into the sunset. But are they making out? Are they kissing? Are they holding hands? Are there some hanky-panky going on? Or are they just friends? I know Zelda's in love with him, apparently. But how do we know how Link feels? Thank you for subscribing. Score, Bunny! Oh boy, a Pokemon! Just subscribe to our channel. Welcome! Please do not copyright me if you are the official Pokemon from the Pokemon games. Because the Pokemon Company likes to strike people down. Thank you for subscribing. Ghoul Games, 1435. Thank you for that. Thank you for subscribing. Siegel, 72. Thank you for that. Also we have X Gamer Guy, XX Gaming too. Thank you for subscribing. Hopefully you guys are all subscribing for our E3 coverage coming up. We got lots of videos to come before then. Podcasts. We just did a podcast last night with Rule of Two Review. We talked about a lot of things. We didn't talk about Switch Pro because that news didn't drop yet. You know that's going to be a big topic of conversation on next week's podcast. Which next week we have a special guest returning that only our old school members are going to remember. But you guys are going to love him. He's going to have a lot of great things to say. He's very knowledgeable about games. He's really good at talking. He's, man, he jives so well. And we might have a second special guest coming on as well in addition to that because Eric might be missing next week. So we might have a monitor in Eric's chair with somebody plus someone on the screen. It's going to be a nice little setup. I'm pretty excited about it. And then Eric might show up too and then we might end up having a four-person, five-person podcast. You know, things happen. We have a lot to talk about. E3 hype is getting to the extreme. I'll be on your channel then for E3, says Kishan Singh. Yeah, thank you. I think you're going to love it. As I said, just a tease. We're giving away this during E3. This is one of our giveaways. But you're like, okay, cool. So you've got like that one big giveaway. You think that's it? How about $100 Fusion Pro Controller? Yeah, we're giving that away during E3. Oh, wait, you think that's it? My bad. You see this? This is a Hylian Shield light-up wall lamp. Here's the cord for it. A light-up wall lamp that you hang on your wall or it comes with this little thing and you can kind of set it up. Now, it's leaning right now. You could fix that if you want. But yeah, this is cool. We're giving away this. This is like a $100 value right there. It's hand-crafted. So we got all sorts of exciting stuff. You know, this little hand-crafted ExciteBite thing. We're giving away a couple of those. This thing is sick. Light-up Triforce and I have it on good authority. We're getting a 16-inch giant version of this to give away as well. And this lights up. It's got the fin Nehru Fouror, din Nehru Fouror colors and the symbols. Light-up Family Crest, Zelda Texel on the side. Obviously, this plugs in as well and lights up. Really, really cool. This could be wall hung or it can obviously just sit there. Like, push it back a bit so you guys can see it. Like that. And watch more. We have hoodies. Like, officially licensed Zelda hoodies that are no longer in print. Hundreds of games we're giving away. It's huge. We're partnering with so many companies. We put a thousand plus dollars of our own money into the giveaway pool to buy different things. We're giving away a collector's coin from E3 2016 for Breath of the Wild. We're giving, it just doesn't end. It doesn't end. There's too much for me to list. It just doesn't end. It's never ending. We're inventorying everything literally tonight. When we watch the Milwaukee Book Team, we're going to be inventorying all of our physical items. We are going to be putting labels on them so I apologize if you're someone that hates when things come with like a sticker on them. I'm sorry, but we have to be able to keep track of things. So we are going to be putting labels on all of these to inventory them into an inventory system we're going to have on the computer so we can keep track of what we're giving away, when we're giving away, who wins it, their shipping address, all that jazz. If you're wondering how you can enter the giveaways, can't do it until E3 so don't even worry about it, right? It'll be all explained at E3. There'll be links in the description of our live streams, linking you to the rules, how things work, why we're doing things the way we're doing, why people can win multiple prizes, not just one. Some people have been requesting that everyone only wins one, so more people win. We'll get into the rules on why we're opening it up for everyone to win multiple prizes. So stay tuned for all E3 and if you're lucky enough to win one, two, three different things, man, you're one lucky SOB, you're lucky enough to win one, let alone winning two or three times. So there we go. It's going down. I need E321 merch. Are you saying you want Nintendo Prime E321 merch? OdysseyTC, are you saying if I make Nintendo Prime E321 merch, you're willing to buy it? I can give some away during E3. I don't know if anyone care. Let me ask you guys, I've been debating this for a while. Do you guys want me to create Nintendo Prime E321 merch? I still have just enough time to do it if you guys want. I can get my orders in, they'll be here before E3 and we could give away some on stream. You guys let me know if you're interested in E3, Nintendo Prime specific E321 merch. We could add that to the giveaway pool. And it has been something I considered. I don't think people care about wearing Nintendo Prime merch. Like this, this isn't, this is a Sega shirt from E3 2019, but I have some old Nintendo Prime merch here with some of our old logos and stuff. I don't have any of the new logos and new stuff. So I don't know. If that's something you guys are interested in or you're interested in purchasing for yourself, let me know. Maybe there's something I could throw together for that for E3. There's still time. There's still just enough time to maybe do some merch stuff. It takes about 10 days to ship. That's why, you know, if I get some designs out today, get my orders in by tomorrow, should be here before E3 to give away some stuff. But we'll see. Let's go here. So many, you guys are really popping off. The question is just don't stop. See how many of this stuff I can get through. Zero Castillo, who's a student, says, when do you think Nintendo will release a brand new system like Switch-related brand new one? Like a new generation. New generation is going to be a few years. If we're talking about Switch Pro this year, what mic do you use before the current one? AT2035s. I still have them. They still will be used for any voiceover gameplay ones I do. Because sometimes I'll still do voiceover gameplay ones when it's warranted. Like if I'm talking about one specific game and we're kind of breaking it down and I need to stop, pause trailers and point out different things. I got a program I'm working on right now to make it where I have like a highlighter where I can circle things in a live video. I'm trying to get that working so I can do things like trailer breakdowns during E3. If I want to point out specific things in Breath of Wild 2, stuff like that, I'll still be using those microphones. Obviously, why would I use a lab mic if I'm not on camera, right? That doesn't make any sense. Why not use a slightly higher grade, higher quality audio recording? Not that this is bad. This sounds good, right? I'm presuming it sounds good. It feels like it sounds good to me, but obviously there's just a tinge bit better quality you can get when you're doing with those mics that cover your face. So I'd rather do that for those kind of videos. Because I still have the mics, so why not use them? Scroll on. Thank you for subscribing to Ngun 187. MVT says, Link and Zelda probably literally birthed the Hylian royal family at the end of Skyward Sword. Maybe. Do you have any thoughts on the last two Smash characters? Oh, hold on. Signal crash, signal crash. Let me go fix that quick. Signal crash. Oh boy. First time that's happened. Whoops. Whoops. Whoops. Signal crash. We got it, everyone. There was a signal crash there. Happens very rarely. Hopefully it doesn't happen during E3. Yeah, we had a signal crash there. So a trick with lav mics, if you want them to not scratch, you want to pull out some slack. You want to create a loop and then go back around into that loop. Like so. And when you create that loop, it makes the mic point straight up and then it doesn't scratch you into a shirt. Fun fact, because some people just try to clip it straight on and when you do that, if it's not attached to a tie or something, it actually going to get some scratchiness from your clothes. Fun little tip. Yeah, I'm not sure why the signal went out there. That's something I'm going to have to look into. I've never had that. I haven't had that happen in a long time. That used to happen months ago. It hasn't happened in a long time. I have to wonder if that camera is overheating. If that's the case, I might have to get a small little case fan blowing at it. I have some laying around. Run it off a CPU power supply. So it's possible that that's overheating here. Because it's summertime and I wasn't using this in the summertime. So it's possible. Yeah, I might have to blow a little fan at the camera just to keep it cool. That might have been why the signal went out there. Um, you have any thoughts on the last two smash characters? And by the way, if the camera does go out during E3, we'll have a backup cam that I can hit a button and switch to if I absolutely need to. So there will be an emergency camera. It just won't be as good. But yeah, I don't think that's going to be a problem. I think the camera just overheated a little bit. We'll give this camera, I'll turn it off after this show and let it cool down. I think I left it on all night. I usually turn it off, but. Does your wife know you just told strangers what you're doing after stream? What do you mean when I'm doing after stream? You mean taking a shower and taking care of my kids? Of course she knows. Saw a question earlier. I'm going to ask it again for them. Where has been out of three? Hopefully this year. December. I want it to be the December game this year. So hopefully we see it at E3. That's my hope. Thank you for subscribing, dominating dope GD. Thank you for subscribing. Jake Moran. Thank you for that. Since you said before that you don't watch anime much, then would you watch a brand new Zelda anime? There has been a show before of Zelda. Yes. Zelda's the exception. They make a Zelda anime. I watched, like I didn't watch the Castlevania one on Netflix. They make a Zelda one. I'll watch it. The hiding shield is cool. I'd do that. The hiding shield is badass. I literally just want to earn a Switch Lite for my brother. Well, we'll see what happens, Siegel. Doggy says, I believe the Pokemon Company deserves the biggest blame for the Sword and Shield debacle and why people are worried about Legends getting released next January. I don't think, I think that's a misnomer. I think people were already not trusting of Game Freak before Sword and Shield. So, and also, Legends Arceus looked really choppy. The framerate did not look good. Could be because it was running the base Switch and it's made for pro. That's possibility as well. I'm hoping for a dedicated home console of the next Switch. Imagine dropping the price $50 and bundle it with a pro controller. Obviously that would be nice. Please ship to Canada. Most of the physical items will be able to ship to Canada. There are some physical items that, for some odd reason, like this Fusion pro controller, to ship this to Canada because it has a battery in it. Because there's a battery in this thing, it's like $80 to ship this to Canada. It's crazy. Might be willing to ship the Switch. We might eat the cost for that. But a lot of these other things back here don't have batteries. So like, yeah. We'll be shipping to Canada. Physical items will be open to Canadians. Just certain ones I might be like, man, maybe I'll ask the chat. If you're willing to pay for shipping, I'll still give it away to you in your native country. So everyone can enter. It would be like, hey, but just so you know, you got to pay for shipping if it's to certain countries. So maybe we'll keep it open worldwide. And then I'll be like, hey, as long as you cover shipping, you can have it. Otherwise we'll draw a new winner. Because some of the shipping get a little ridiculous and we've already spent a lot on E3. I would say that they should play Sonic Omens. What that guy made it is scummy and the game isn't that good. Might as suggest Sonic GT or Sonic Utopia. Okay, okay. This is some sort of chat. Let's see. Yes, I'm not going to watch. I'm not going to watch your stream all day, but I'll be on as long as. Yeah, I don't expect most people to be here for 12 hour streams, four day straight, right? 48 hours of streaming. I don't expect people to be there for that. This doesn't include if we stream the podcast. There's that stream as well. So I don't expect people to be here for everything, right? That's just not realistic. What do you think Nintendo will release a brand new system like not switch related by a brand new one? Again, three, four years. So my notifications were not showing up, so I missed Rob, but it worked today. Yeah, that's just the way it goes. YouTube's weird with notifications. Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't. That's why I suggest. Head down to the description. We have a link to our Discord server. Also, follow me on Twitter and Indie Prime. We announce all videos, all live streams on Twitter, and you can hit the bell on Twitter and get notified there, and on Discord. We announce the videos on there. Well, all videos, all live streams. So it's just an extra way to get notified, right? Also, if you go follow on Instagram, nintendo underscore prime, you can't put direct links to things, but I can put up reminders on Instagram that we are about to go live, dear ne3. I'm going to be doing that on Instagram, so you want to go there. Instagram notifications work extremely well. That's why I'm bringing it up. We can't put direct links to it, but again, we can mention we're doing it so you know to hop on your YouTube app, hop on your computers, your TVs, whatever, and get over to our channel and get ready for the stream. You're an awesome dude. You can easily become my favorite Nintendo news YouTuber. Thank you, Tyler, right? Zerio Castillo says, what do you have to do to enter the giveaways? Giveaways, all that's happening live, dear ne3. You have to be here to enter. You have to be here to win. So if you enter to give away, dear ne3, don't go away. Don't go away, at least until the winners are announced. We'll explain how that's all going to work later. I've actually already explained it once before. It's a really long-winded thing. I'm going to be making a public Google Doc that can't be edited, so that you guys can view for all the rules, and our mods in the chat will be able to slash whatever to bring up the link so you guys can see all the rules for the giveaways if you're curious on how they work, especially if you want to look it up before we start announcing giveaways. We are going to have many, many giveaways happening. You're not going to know when they're happening. Eric and I will know when they're happening, but you're not going to know when they're happening. So just stay tuned. I hope that you guys catch the entire stream. I know it's not realistic. It is what it is, right? How do I play Smash Bros with you during E3, and what day is it going to be in? Is your main possibly Link or Banjo? I'm not telling you my main, and it's going to be happening on all four days. And on top of that, on top of it happening on all four days, I don't know exactly what time yet, because I haven't completed our E3 schedule. I am not going to tell you how it works yet. There's going to be a way to sign up for it. Right now we're debating if the signups are going to be ahead of time, so we can already set up ahead of time who we're going to play. So there is a chance that we do do a live stream before E3 where we take signups for different games to compete against me and Eric. Now we won't know going to E3 who's going to play, because Eric and I are literally going to flip a coin to see who you're going to be playing. So you might be playing against Eric, you might be playing against me, and whatever game. So we're going to probably have those signups ahead of time so we can have it organized who's going to be doing it. And then there will be, I think the final one's going to be open to the public. Our final one we do on the last day, I think is when we go to the chat, and someone from the chat will be selected who enters. So we'll see. Stay tuned. We're going to be having I think a stream before E3 for people to sign up and us figure out who's going to be the ones playing us. Because it's going to be randomly selected, but it's going to be you're going to sign up to be randomly selected. Because you got to own the game. If you don't own the game, you can't play against us. We're not buying the game for you to compete against us. So you know, when you're going to release a brand new, okay, we already talked about that. How do I play Smash Bros? What do you already talk about that? Don't forget American flag stamps. Yeah. What if someone lives in the US territory? They're going to worry about it. If you live in the US, we'll ship items. That's not a problem. You don't have to pay for shipping. Hawaii is the US territory. The shipping isn't any more expensive than it is to go anywhere else, surprisingly. 300 plus watching. Yeah. Thanks, Lauren. That's true. What's up, Retro? 10 zeros of those trying to get my friend to buy a switch. And he told me it was overhyped garbage and the games are overrated. Then his girl bought him on. He owns the rest of the wild shirts now speaks volumes. That's the way it goes. Nintendo has this reputation as four kids. It's a trash system. It's underpowered. Our phones are more powerful than it. Sure. A lot of that's true. But trash? I don't think anyone can call switch trash. The only people that have that don't own one and haven't played the games. That's my opinion. If you don't own one and you haven't played Nintendo's games on it, then your opinion is just console war bullshit. It's not based on any truth. It's based on an opinion that exists because I'm a PlayStation guy. I'm an Xbox guy. I'm a PC guy. It's not based on you actually having experience with the platform. Beyond maybe what? One game. Like they'll be like, oh, but Xenovate Chronicles 2 has trash frame rate. Okay, fine. Great. You pulled one game out of like 50 exclusives. Congratulations. I mean, come on. If you're digging for examples, you can find examples. The Witcher 3. You can find examples, right? But you're ignoring all the really, really good ones. Like Odyssey is an example. So like, you know, I try not to get into those fan wars too much. You're my main Nintendo news guy. I don't even watch News Wave anymore. Wow. I mean, News Wave covers a lot of news that we don't cover, including other platforms. But I try to get all the news out that I can, of course. And anything I miss typically comes out during live streams as well. So I guess at the end of the day, we end up covering almost all the big Nintendo news. If not during standalone videos, we'll bring it up during live stream like we did today. We've run up the Sonic news today, the Dragon Quest news today, all that came up right here in this live stream, even though I didn't do individual videos on it. So I guess, you know, we get to all the big stuff eventually. Am I going to try Sonic Colors Ultimate? Probably. I did enjoy the original. I don't think it's as good as people make it out to me, but I did enjoy it. So I'll probably get it. It's only 40 bucks. So I think the price is right. Curl Goal says, Hey there. So since Twilight Princess was the biggest-selling Zelda before Breath of the Wild, true, 8 million in sales, come mind. Do you think it did that well because it was darker and more mature a game? Wasn't it rated T? I don't think it had to be dark. I think it had to do with the Wind Waker After Effect. Ocarina of Time, 7 million units, right? Twilight Princess feels like a natural evolution of the art direction of Ocarina of Time. So you had Ocarina of Time, and then you went with Majora's Mask, fine. And then Wind Waker. Wind Waker was a drastic turn and did not sell that well in the West. It sold well in Japan, did not sell very well in the United States. In fact, the CEO or president of the Central America of the Time told Aegeanomo, do not make the Wind Waker too when they were planning to make the Wind Waker too. People in the West don't like the Wind Waker. So then they drastically shifted and went with Twilight Princess, which feels like an evolution of Ocarina of Time. So there was that anticipation build-up hype, and then there was a couple years, and so it sold 8 million and it launched the Wii. So I don't think it did do with it being darker, it didn't do it rated T. It has to do with the art direction, feeling like an evolution of Ocarina of Time. That's why. Ocarina of Time, previous best-selling one. Obviously, one that looks like it evolves at is the next best-selling one. So yeah, that was the Ocarina of Time Wind Waker effect in the West, where Wind Waker was not very well received in the West. People thought it was a kid game because of the art direction. Let's see here. Thank you for subscribing Gamer 2021. Yep, makes sense. Yeah, that's my opinion, by the way. Obviously, I don't know. I know Nintendo's president factually told Aegeanomo not to make... This came out in an interview. He told them not to make the Wind Waker too when they were already developing it. So they shifted Wind Waker too into Twilight Princess, but yeah. Kind of crazy to take like shifting Wind Waker to a game at the seas. And then they ended up having like a Wind Waker too anyways with Phantom Hourglass and obviously the Spirit Tracks, but... I just called you one of the best Switch exclusives. All right, that's good. I think I'm gonna wrap it up here. How good is the source for Switch Pro? Very good. Eurogamer, Bloomberg, IGN, Emily Rogers, Nathan Haight, the list goes on and on and on. Legit journalists, legit leakers. It goes on and on and on. This will be one of the biggest gaming media flubs if this is all untrue. If the release timing is untrue, if the announce timing is untrue, it would be the biggest media gaming flub of all time. Too many big names. Jason Schreyer is backing this. Too many big names are backing this information. Too many. And am I surprised? Think about it. Media week is coming up for E3. You think the media aren't pretty to Switch Pro information right now as Switch Pro is part of media week? They're gonna be playing Switch Pro games in a week. I'm throwing that out right now. Media members will be playing Switch Pro games in a week. That's why we... It's coming out now. It's all coming out now. All these media members are now backing it because they know. They already know. They already have their media week plans in. They know. They know they're gonna be playing Switch Pro versions of third-party games next week. They already know it. They know it. So, if you had a time machine, would you tell us a Switch Pro is real? I mean, it is real. I don't need a time machine. Congratulations. It's real. And a time machine would be nice to find out the name. New Nintendo Switch. Switch Plus. You know, Super Switch. Whatever it's called. It's gonna feel weird to stop calling it a Switch Pro. Watch them call it Switch Pro. That would be crazy. But I don't think they're gonna do that. That's so nice thing. New Nintendo Switch is probably what it's gonna end up being called. The thing with TPC, Pokemon companies that never delay Pokemon games and keep yearly releases. They have technically delayed a Pokemon game once before. It's happened. It has happened before. Big leaks coming. Oh, yeah, dude. I don't know if the media is gonna leak much out of Media Week because the reason they have Media Week is so they can do additional coverage during E3 after things are announced. You know, have articles ready to go, have video features ready to go, because especially because there's no in-person event this year. But anyways, Switch Plus. Yeah, dude, Switch Plus is a great name. I would love to see it called Switch Plus. I really hope it's not like Switch 4K. Nintendo is not one to tout resolutions that much. Even though I think they'll mention it. I don't think they're gonna be called Switch 4K. That would be crazy. It was. All right. That's gonna do it. Thank you so much for tuning in.
