Coffeebeanz 06/01/18 10:42:36 AM #1:	A ton of AAA games nobody played get re-released on Switch and fly off the shelves. Within a year, the Switch got Zelda, Mario Kart, Splatoon, Mario, Xenoblade 2 and DKC. You'd normally have to wait an entire Nintendo console generation to get one of each of their major franchises, yet here we are. Plus, the added portability gives a pretty good incentive for even Wii U owners (all five of them) to double dip. That's a pretty lucky pivot for Nintendo. --- Physician [Internal Medicine] <cite>Coffeebeanz posted [p:902365975] in Ironically...

Doe 06/01/18 12:27:56 PM #19:	Characters are removed likely based on priority and production constraints, but clone characters are just taking an existing model and editing it and changing some numbers. So the work is simple and additive there but with new characters the work is multiplicative since you have no idea how they'll work with the rest of the game yet. So clone characters are never going to be a reason why Ice Climbers or Wolf aren't in a Smash game. --- https://imgur.com/IYZ3NIM https://imgur.com/i2U0ahc <cite>Doe posted [p:902370934] in Ironically...

As for Dark Pit, I think they could put some more effort into him, but if they were to do that, they might as well just replace him with the superior Hades. Lucina is pretty much a lost cause though.

I got BOTW for it because I was impatient and I'll likely rebuy that now that I have a Switch. --- "Kenan & Kel is what made me realize I wasn't racist." ~ NewportBox100s <cite>butthole666 posted [p:902373965] in Ironically...

I got BOTW for it because I was impatient and I'll likely rebuy that now that I have a Switch. I bought BotW for Wii U because I wasn't sure how the Switch would shake out. I don't plan on rebuying, I put hundreds of hours into the game and have no desire to start over. I treat it as sending my Wii U off with a bang, plus it's still hooked up if I get an itch to play BotW. --- Oda break tracker 2018- 3 (2) \| THE Ohio State: 11-2 \| Oakland Raiders: 6-10 Super Mario Maker Profile: 1237-0000-0073-02FE <cite>voldothegr8 posted [p:902374181] in Ironically...

TheVipaGTS 06/01/18 1:32:26 PM #30:	the switch released them all fairly close to each other and announced them ahead of time giving people a reason to buy. With the Wii U they were spaced out. People couldnt justify buying a console for one game with the hope of other games soon so they went with other consoles. --- Dallas Cowboys: 1 - 1 <cite>TheVipaGTS posted [p:902374257] in Ironically...

Vyrulisse 06/01/18 1:33:28 PM #31:	It sucks because the Wii U wasn't a bad system it's that most people didn't know wtf it was. A lot of people thought it was an add-on for the Wii and not a new system. Nintendo dropped the ball big time marketing it and explaining what it was exactly. --- https://imgur.com/6VeX04D https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EvMeQpu9-sg <cite>Vyrulisse posted [p:902374322] in Ironically...

The Switch is the worst Nintendo console for previous owners of Wii U. I should really just sell mine because I'll probably never play it. If I find out the new Smash is a port, it's getting sold pronto. Thats the thing though ~~No one bought a Wii u~~ No one except 13 million people. For those people his point stands. Compared to the 100 mil + people that bought a Wii that is nothing lmao Okay, but his point still stands. Oh for sure just making fun of him for buying into Nintendo hype lmao How was I suppose to know they were a scam company?
