 hey everyone how's it going welcome back to nintendo prime uh we this is not a switch OLED video although we are giving away a switch OLED uh that one you see behind us uh we're giving away a switch OLED literally this week on Friday uh to enter you just need to be subscribed to the channel so you know you might as well go ahead and do that uh but yeah I already got you know the light and the switch and another switch here that's taken apart um I'm getting all prepared here I have lots of comparisons and things going on behind the scenes but today we're going to actually talk about four big news stories uh we'll worry about switch OLED another day maybe tomorrow maybe Friday uh we have a lot to go over with that platform but for now let's focus on this amazing news including stuff uh from treasure a video game company uh we also have um stuff from nintendo france about pokemon games very interesting there we have nintendo expanding their park at universal japan uh and some news about metroid dread so our first story comes from treasure ltd on twitter uh their japanese account uh teased future additions to nintendo switch online uh so here are here's the exact quote it says nintendo switch online plus expansion pack with nintendo 64 and genesis have been announced stay tuned for the start in late october and for future additions now we assume obviously this being a video game company they're talking about future additions of their games uh they're known for games even like astro boy but they actually have a very deep library of classic games not ones that i'm super familiar with but i have heard of a few of them uh so this is obviously something that to be excited about potential snes and genesis and n64 games from this company coming to switch it's also possible and i this is something that i kind of doubt uh that the future additions could be referencing future platforms coming to nintendo switch now they could possibly know that since they would have to be contacted for permission uh to put their games on that service so again and they have a games on gameboy in the past and stuff like that so i don't know it's kind of speculative at that point i think it's all speculative at this point uh what this all means uh but treasure ltd is definitely looking forward to supporting uh what's happening here with switch online and that's nothing but good news i hope more companies come out voice and support even if they don't currently have games already on the platform that way we know hey look they're willing to actually work with nintendo and expand that library of classic games next up we have some news on pokemon brilliant diamond and shining pearl news that's going to disappoint people if it is true uh we could call this a rumor but considering the source being nintendo france we're just going to kind of go with what they said uh nintendo france on their facebook page put out there that there will only be pokemon in brilliant diamond and shining pearl through generation four now while this has not been officially announced by the pokemon company nintendo france is obviously an official branch of nintendo who owns the rights to pokemon so if they are saying this chances are it's probably true and it does fall in line with what the current head of the series noted back during sword and shield before it came out that they were no longer going to have any games in the future that had all pokemon in one game at least in the mainline series and even though prior remade remastered pokemon games have included significantly more pokemon if not all of them at least a lot of them uh that were had that came out after that generation uh that's just not happening this time around so this is going to be disappointing for some people this is going to cause people not to want to order the game some people were already expecting this to be the case uh so i'm very curious where you sit on this personally i find that i don't care uh then again i don't really care about catching them all or i don't even know i guess people just wanting their favorite pokemon in every single game i'm always of mine that like if you're using the same pokemon in every single game i think it just loses a little bit of the luster of what that pokemon game is i know i'm probably in the minority on that and i probably pissed off a lot of pokemon bands with that statement but hey it is what it is this appears to be what's happening according to uh nintendo of france so we'll have to just wait and see for official confirmation but i mean this came from nintendo whatever wait for the pokemon company so i guess to confirm this uh or maybe say nothing about it at all uh just because they know about the negative backlash all right next up uh nintendo is expanding their universal park in japan now we've actually known about this expansion for almost six months it just was never actually announced even though construction had already begun nintendo has now announced that they are expanding their universal park uh as of 2024 that's when it will open with a donkey kong expansion this expansion will include a roller coaster that is mine cart themed which of course it will uh so i have to see how that turns out obviously there's been a bit of a snuff who getting the super mario world one launched not because it's not ready not because people don't love it when they're there but because of obviously the pandemic opening closing opening closing mass no mass etc it's been kind of a hot mess but uh that has not stopped them from going forward to it obviously the universal nintendo envision a future where there's not going to be these current pandemic problems and we'll get back to a semi regular life and that's when obviously these sort of expansions can take off of no super mario world nintendo world whatever is being built also in universal florida chances are there will be a donkey kong expansion there as well someday if they don't do donkey kong it would be shit so you know see what they do else always wondered about a possible pokemon expansion we've had pokemon theme parks in the past possible uh you know zelda would also be a really really big one that they could do um so yeah we'll have to wait and see uh nintendo also announced a donkey kong in terms of the total series sales have reached 65 million uh which when you consider the number of donkey kong releases it might not sound impressive but uh still 65 million something to scoff at and hopefully this is a precursor to actually getting a new donkey kong game announced like there has been rumors are moving into our last story metroid dread so people have been debating some have been debating just is metroid dread worth 60 dollars we actually put a poll up about that it seems that most of you feel like it is but that's not here nor there what we care about here is obviously sales and you might say why do we care about sales we're not nintendo we're not the ones making bank off of these games we care about sales because sales gives a company incentive to create more games like the one that sells well breath of the wild as an example blew up the 25 million units so guess what we're getting a breath of the wild too and we also technically got our prequel and age of calamity so when you think about it sales tells the company to do more of this good thing so if i love metroid dread as much as i think i i will obviously i want it to sell very well but there's been a lot of debate on the sales of metroid dread as well because metroid is not a franchise that actually sells that well its best selling game is around four million in the original metroid prime otherwise pretty much two million is usually where metroid games cap out at beyond that very first metroid prime even prime two and prime three didn't you know do record breaking numbers well here's some good news for metroid fans and fans of dread metroid dread has reached in wake of the previews dropping over the last few days the number one seller spot for video games and in terms of the actual games like the best selling game on amazon this is usually a massive indicator of huge influx of sales and obviously great launch sales there have been large debates about whether or not this this game we hit two million can it hit three million can it hit five i'm a proponent that i think this is going to be a five plus million seller and become the greatest or best selling metroid game of all time we'll have to wait and see obviously this sales indicator is a great start but again this is just amazon in the u.s this isn't all retailers in the u.s even though it's the largest one it's obviously not retailers out in uh in japan or other countries as well so as to see how metroid dread actually does at launch but i'm expecting a record launch for a metroid title and i am expecting record sales for a metroid title which would be north of four million but we'll have to wait and see um some people other youtubers out there have some weird bets going on that this thing's gonna sell like crap because metroid usually always sells quote-unquote like crap i mean a couple million nothing to scoff at but also hey that's kind of just what metroid does it's kind of like the 3d kirby game so people are wondering how well is that going to sell kirby games usually only sell one to two million is a 3d one suddenly gonna sell more and then there's also been criticism of that game because people think oh my god doesn't look that great which weird because kirby's never been a looker i don't know people are just bitching to bitch i think at this point we'll have to wait and see what happens uh but that's what i got for you today nice short and sweet for you no super long video i've got so much work to do with the OLED with the switch OLED on hand yes i have a switch OLED um maybe i'll even talk about how i got my hands on one uh but for now uh because i have that i have so much focus around all my coverage of that um currently right now i'm actually taking it apart um but again you'll have to wait for my video that i think is dropping on friday uh to really see the full comparison uh because i am making a full comparison to uh the normal switch and the switch light um and the docks and everything uh will be putting will be it's going to be just really really in depth um so i hope you're honestly looking really forward to it because we're gonna compare everything from the unboxing experience to uh what they're like when they're taken apart um you know just there's so much um so yeah that video is currently in the works and just gonna take a couple days gonna make sure we do it right get it right want it done in the most professional manner we can at this channel um but yeah a lot of my focus is is on the switch OLED videos right now so a lot of these standard dues videos are gonna feel a bit rushed it is what it is thank you guys so much for tuning in i am with andrew all jance and i'll catch you guys in the next video
