 Let's talk about E3 briefly. So for the second topic, we're gonna talk about our top Nintendo E3 2017 desires. So this is not what we think's gonna happen. I'm gonna leave predictions and all the stuff for a separate segment we're gonna do the Monday before E3. So this is just gonna be about what we want to happen. So why don't you go first? What would you like to happen for Nintendo E3? Game announcements, specific features, you know, what? I would like to see some sort of, I don't know what they've announced and what they haven't, but I would definitely like to hopefully see, I know, I know. You've seen the game list several times. I know I have. It's okay, it's okay. I'll let you know if it's something that you've already announced. Yeah. Definitely like to see some sort of odyssey something, which I'm guessing they're gonna have. We've already talked about that. Yes, I know. I'm just very proud to guess. It's okay, yeah. One week. The odyssey is gonna be at E3 and it's gonna be playable on the show floor. That's awesome. Cause that's what I would love to see the most actually. Actually, you know, they're talking about Mario still, the Mario and Rabbits, having some sort of video even of that. Yeah, we don't know for sure. We know it's gonna be at E3. We just don't know for sure what we're gonna see. Right. I'd like to see at least a video of it to see what the gameplay looks like and what kind of get a feel for it, even though I think it's gonna be awesome. I hope it's gonna be awesome. I had one other thing, but I can't remember what it was. Again, long week, but... You wanna see some of the Zelda DLC? Oh, yeah. Yes, definitely. Sometimes we forget that exactly we bought it. Right, yeah. Like they had the one thing where they announced, you know, the trial and like some of the things in the first pack, but I haven't seen it. Haven't really heard much about it. Yeah, I kind of completely forgot about it actually. I still have so much of Breath of the Wild to even play it still, so. I think everybody does. Even people who 100% of it officially, technically there's more to do in the game than apparently what the 100% meter says. So, even if you've 100% according to the game, guess what? There's still more to find, still more to do. Wow. That being said, obviously I wanna see Zelda DLC. And not so much this first pack. We pretty much have an idea what this first pack is though. I don't really need to see anything of this first pack except for a release date. So I really wanna see them say it's coming out now or it's coming out early July, because they said summer. So it's gotta be coming soon. My guess is that probably if I had to guess if they're gonna release it somewhere with E3. Maybe. I don't, the only reason I say maybe is because Arms comes out on June 16th. So I don't know if they wanna take attention away from Arms. True. So it could be an end of June. Very true actually. Like try to squeeze it between Arms and Splatoon too. Maybe, I don't know. Again, it doesn't really matter because it shouldn't affect sales per se. It really shouldn't, because I think most people that want the DLC have already bought it. Yeah. But again, it's still one of those, I don't know what Nintendo's thinking. Again, I can't make assumptions over what they're thinking. Right. So yes, but what I wanna see from the DLC is that second pack. I wanna see a teaser. The second pack is supposed to have a new dungeon and it's supposed to have some new story. And I want a teaser for that. Part of that's because I've already seen the conclusion of all the story elements. So I just wanna know what's next. But also it's part of like they knew this was coming. So this is something they planned for which means it should fit in really nicely. And when they say a new dungeon, I'm curious because the only real dungeons in Breath of the Wild were the Divine Beast. And I know some people will argue for the shrines. That's fine. They weren't officially called dungeons. They were shrines. And again, I guess the dungeons were called the Dungeons were called Divine Beast, but whatever. Just like sometimes they're called temples. Sometimes they're called other things. But Nintendo recognizes those as the four dungeons. So what I'm curious to see is what the heck is a fifth dungeon? Is there a fifth Divine Beast that we don't know about? What the heck is its role? Why didn't we hear about it? Is there, is it an actual dungeon? Like built into the world, like a volcano dungeon or a forest dungeon? Like is it one of those kind of dungeons? And if it is, why is it here now? Is there a new land? Yeah. Because there is definitely land beyond where you can go in Breath of the Wild. You see that mountain, you can go there. Well, I saw a mountain I could not go to. Yeah, right? So there maybe there's more. I'm thinking that there is because I know in the northern most part of it, if I fly off the edge, even though there looks to be land on the map. There is. Animals and stuff too. There's people who along that little cut off, like they've actually flown and gotten as close as they can and just did like a long glide along and you can see some animals and trees. And it's like. But you go down and you die. There's stuff there. I mean, the easiest way for them to do this would have been surround everything with water as far as I can see. But no, no, they made it very obvious there is more land. Yes. So I don't want to see all of it, obviously, but some teases. Would be really cool. Some teases. If there was like this underground network. That'd be awesome. Where it kind of goes through all the biomes. Sure, sure. Beyond, you know, I already know exactly, like I don't know exactly what they're going to show at E3, but I know, you know, some things for certain. So what I would like to see since this is desired is I want to see, I want to see a metro I get announced. Yeah. I don't think it's going to happen. But I want to see a metro I get announced. I don't, to be clear, and this is because it's most desired, another thing I want to see is whatever Retro Studios is working on. And I think they're making a new IP, which is why I don't think we're going to see Metroid because I don't think Retro, a lot of people think we're going to see it because that's what Retro Studios is working on. I don't think Retro Studios is working on a Metroid. And the big reason I say that is they have been working on a new game since they released Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze. And one of the main guys behind Metroid in Japan was asked at last year's E3 about Metroid. And he said, well, if we had started, if we don't have any announcements for Metroid, and if we started making a Metroid right now, it would obviously be for Nintendo Switch and it would be a few years out. Which to me meant they aren't making Metroid. Yeah. They had already been making a game for a couple of years and if it ain't Metroid, then it's something else. It could be another Donkey Kong game, but I bet you it's a new IP. I bet you Nintendo said, look, we want you to create a Western-style something. RPG, adventure game, maybe they want a Western shooter to complement Splatoon. I don't know. Like whatever. I bet you Retro Studios have the reins taken off. I think they've proven themselves enough that Nintendo's like, finally, let's have you make your own identity instead of working on stuff that we created in Japan. So that's what I think. I desire to see a new Retro Studios IP, Metroid to get announced, some sort of Metroid. Hopefully not like a Federation 4 style. I mean, like even a 2D science-rolling Metroid, I'd even take that announcement. Mother 3. I would like to see, I think they're gonna talk about their online services and we know for sure that there's some games with it. I would like to see the very first game that comes out with that online service, the thing that would sell people day one when it launches. Mother 3 is the first game that you get with the service the first month. I desire to see that so much. Not predicting it, that's just what I want to happen. I want to see them be like, look, you give us this little bit of money for a month and we give you Mother 3 worldwide. It's never been outside of Japan officially. So that would be amazing for people who are really into the Earthbound series. And it would show that Nintendo really cares about some of those old life. Even as the guy behind Earthbound said, does it make sense to make another one? Fine, don't make another one, but at least give us the ones you got. I would like to see just a personal desire. It's a little iffy because the Switch can't do it the way I want it to. But I want to see a Pokemon Snap announced. The problem is I wanted the Switch to do it kind of like what Pokemon Go does when you go and then you have like a VR world but there's no cameras on the Switch so it can't work that way. That sucks. So it does almost make, to me right now Pokemon Snap, if they brought it back would feel better as a mobile game but I just want to see it back in some capacity. Like yeah, Pokemon Snap, I keep thinking of Pokemon Go. They can just make Pokemon Snap like they did back in the day. It perfectly fine. They can make their virtual world where we go out and run a boat ride, run trains, run a snap, take a picture. So that's fine. At least now you can go like this. Yeah, you can, yeah, yeah. So like that's a desire that I want to see them announce. I also desire greatly to see a bunch of third party games confirmed that I feel like should already be confirmed. I'd like to see Call of Duty World War II confirmed for Switch. I would like to see Bethesda committing some sort of game to have in the works to the system. Like a major game, not a side dish. Not like what Ubisoft is doing in Mario and Rabbids. And speaking of Ubisoft, I would love to see them announce that Assassin's Creed Origins is coming to Switch. Yep. I would like to see, and I know Assassin's Creed Call of Duty, I'm like popular franchises, man. If Nintendo can get them in portable form, that is a very attractive prospect to a lot of people. Oh, definitely. You know, getting back to some Nintendo IP, I would love to see Nintendo announce F-Zero and a Wave Race. Yeah. I know they're racing games. I know people can argue they compete with Mario Kart since Mario Kart has that one fast F-Zero kind of level. You know, why should they have F-Zero? Because it doesn't matter. The fast racing Neo compete with Mario Kart? No, they're two totally different games. And fast racing Neo is basically F-Zero. It's just not F-Zero. It's an indie game. Yeah. So they're proving that there's still a market for that. So Nintendo could actually bring back the game that basically was the foundation for that market. Yeah. I think that would be great. As long as they bring back the death spinner too. Because then the second one, they got rid of the death spinner and it's kind of a best-fucking-y die. That's okay. I'm sure they'll bring it back. And again, obviously, Wave Race, totally different from anything. You're racing out in the water on jet skis. Lots and lots of fun. The waves and everything, it's just a lot of fun. I would love to see them bring those games back. And I can argue, basically, I want to see every Nintendo game on the little sun. But one game I think I definitely want to see, not for this year, but I want to see them mention it's coming in 2018, Smash of some kind. Whether it's a brand new Smash game for Switch or whether it is a Deluxe combination, 3DS and Wii U port with extra stuff and characters, get announced not for this year, because I think with Mario Kart and Super Mario Odyssey and Zelda all this year, I think they need to spread out a game like that but for next year. And in addition to that, I would like to see them at least confirm. They don't have to confirm which games, but at least say that they are dedicated to bringing the best of the Wii U library to the Switch over the coming years. And they can even hint at things like, we're talking to Platinum Games, which would hint at the Wonderful 101 or Bayonetta 2, but not actually announce which one of those is coming or if both are coming. The Wind Waker HD and Twilight Princess HD, the Switch isn't really gonna do anything different with those, but you could at least have them on that platform. Cause right now, if you sold your Wii U, you can't play those games. They're not available anywhere else. Unless they do some sort of online. Super Mario 3D world. I know some people are indifferent on the game, but still like Nintendo just dedicating themselves to bringing the best of the Wii U over. And I know some people be like, oh, you know, that's a cop out. I'm like, yes, it is a cop out. It's a cop out to the fact that Nintendo Switch is probably gonna outsell the total lifetime sales of the Wii U in its first year. So why wouldn't they wanna bring the games that they already invested a bunch of money and already exist and are already absolutely fantastic over to a platform that people actually own? Right. So, and that's not saying, keep in mind, I'm just talking with sales. I am not dissing the Wii U. I think the Wii U is actually a really great system. Just people didn't buy it. So why would they not bring like games they invested money in high quality? Like Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze to me is the greatest 2D science-rolling platform of all time. Period, end of story. You can argue any of the game you want. I will highly respect your opinion, but you're wrong. I'm kidding. Just for me, Tropical Freeze is the best. So why wouldn't I want that on Switch? In portable form. Come on. What Tropical Freeze man doesn't want that? Oh, because I own a Wii U and don't own a Switch so I wanna, nah, no, Switch people can't have my game. Who cares? Yeah, right. Maybe I should make a video about that too. I talked about fanboys and console wars. I should probably also talk about people who feel this entitlement that their game shouldn't be on other platforms, because I think that's stupid. People who got upset that Mario Maker went to 3DS. People who got upset that Yoshi went to 3DS or that 3DS game's coming to Switch. It's like, who cares? Yeah, you have the game. It doesn't affect you. I mean, I understand the argument. Topic for another day. Topic for another day. Yes. I'm actually glad that came up because I actually have a whole article that I was working on that I might convert to a video about this. I just gotta dig it up. So that's kind of where I'm at, I guess, with Nintendo for my desired free three. And last but not least, I want them to have a virtual console. Yeah, it's been a long time coming. They're online, everything they've stated about online, none of it talks about virtual console. So what's happening with virtual console? Clearly, if it does exist, it's not tied to your online system. It's separate. It's its own thing. It feels, let me put it this way. Almost the entire Neo Geo library of games is available on the eShop on Nintendo Switch. Yep. A non-Nintendo system and almost all its games through a partnership is on the eShop. But yet I can't buy any old Nintendo games. I can buy all the Neo Geo games I want in the world. Yeah, can't buy any of my Gamecube or my N64, SNES, so I would like to see them bring, just talk about it at least. We're not gonna launch it this year. At least talk about, at least do this for me, Nintendo. Either say- Can you confirm that there is one or not? Yeah, basically just say, if you're not gonna do a virtual console, and you better have a damn good reason not to, because it's almost like you don't like money if you don't do it. Right. Then just say, we're not gonna be having virtual console on the system. So people can stop speculating and talking about it. Just kill our dreams and let us bitch. And then six months later, people will still be bitching, but whatever, at least we'll be in acceptance mode. Yeah. Okay, don't get rid of your Wii, you don't get rid of your 3DS because you're not gonna be able to get those games. Or if it does exist, you don't have to tell us how you're doing it. I would love for you to tell us. I'd desire for you to be like, it's a subscription service for 10 bucks, like Microsoft and PSN have PlayStation, PSN, Xbox just launched their new thing. I forget what it's called. And you pay like 10 bucks a month and you get access to all these games. That's what I want Nintendo to do, but if they don't do that, because they don't want to follow the standards of everybody else. They're gonna go archaic. That's fine. Even if they just offer it the way they have, just at least announce it's going to exist. Yeah. It's kind of where I'm at with things.
