Support NeoGAF

[Dystify]

Hm, what a coincidence. And somebody said nothing will happen this week.

 

[FamousLastX]

Trying to keep my hype in check as I have a feeling that it won't be Stars for Switch, but I'm having a really tough time managing that. So screw it, all aboard the hype train!

 

[Takat]

I hope it's stars. And I'm hopeful Nintendo will have stock, according to all rumors they are upping their Switch production.

 

[BitStyle]

Stars time

 

[DMONKUMA]

Welp it's time.

 

[ash_ag]

A Pokémon Duel x Yu-Gi-Oh crossover would make no sense.

This one though...

 

[Galava]

And this one as well?

This year I'm finishing college at last, and I have a deadline for uploading the final project tomorrow at the same time the Direct starts. It's going to be tough to finish it up while containing the hype.

 

[Yoshimitsu126]

If this is Magikarp Jump 2 I wouldn't complain.

But if it was a slowpoke game based on their recent youtube song that would be even greater.

 

[FZZ]

Nintendo's stock price is going to destroy records

the world isn't ready for an HD Mainline Pokemon game

GAF ain't ready

I'm ready tho

Jmon

 

[Okami Haundo]

Is DetectiveGaf fully redeemed now?

 

[friskykillface]

👀👀👀👀👀👀

 

[Vanillalite]

I can't contain myself.

HD Poke on the Switch screen with a solid framerate vs the 3ds screen and janky fps.

I need tomorrow to hurry up and get here.

 

[NOLA_Gaffer]

They cant disappear if there is none to begin with. Hard times for potential Switch owners.

I just want some Joycons that aren't busted pieces of shit and inventory control can't even manage that.

I haven't played my Switch since I finished Zelda just because of the continuous control lag.

 

[Pokemaniac]

With Eurogamers record, it's going to be in Switch

They're not infallible. I obviously don't know if they're right or wrong, but I still think a 3DS-only release makes the most sense.

 

[Neiteio]

THEME SONG LEAKED, GO GO GO

 

[Wamb0wneD]

It would signal that Game Freak is confident enough in the Switch stock situation for whenever it's supposed to launch. Which would be a good thing.

Or they were just like: "Yo, NIntendo. You wanted this on your new system real bad, now go figure out how to produce that shit fast enough already. We have done our part."

THEME SONG LEAKED, GO GO GO

Lmao.

 

[marmoka]

You know what's missing in the poll?

The Pokemon X Digimon crossover

 

[Mr. Pointy]

You held out on a Switch, well, good luck finding one after this Direct + E3

Nintendo will solve that problem when they buy Foxconn after their stock prices go past Amazon's after the direct.

 

[Pastry]

Is DetectiveGaf fully redeemed now?

I mean I guess?

It's like saying yeah it'll be raining tomorrow for a month and then it finally rains. It was going to rain eventually.

 

[Prodigenius10]

Finally, Pokemon Conquest sequel!

Everybody out there wishing for Stars and i'm just sitting in my corner hoping for this instead.

 

[Seik]

I'm sure we'll get Stars, but I voted for Pokken Switch since I want it more.

 

[Kneefoil]

Oh no. It's totally going to be about Pokémon Go legendaries, isn't it? Didn't even think about it before I saw it in the poll.

 

[Graphics Horse]

D/P 3DS & Switch Stars & Mobile Go
Something for everyone

 

[Cartho]

Also:
If this really is Stars, on Switch, Nintendo could potentially have Pokemon Stars, Monster Hunter, Splatoon 2, Mario Oddyssey, Skyrim, Arms, Mario Kart, Zelda BOTW DLC and Xenoblade Chronicles 2.

That's all before any big E3 announcements. That's an utterly insane lineup for a console which will be 9 months old at Christmas.

 

[GuitarGuruu]

WHOAAAAAAA!!! Best possible news to wake up to, give me Stars!!

 

[javac]

The meltdowns if it ends up being 3DS only, I will bask in said madness.

 

[Nirolak]

A Pokémon Duel x Yu-Gi-Oh crossover would make no sense.

This one though...

 

[Wamb0wneD]

This year I'm finishing college at last, and I have a deadline for uploading the final project tomorrow at the same time the Direct starts. It's going to be tough to finish it up while containing the hype.

Damn, good luck then!

Psh.

Ouch, and I was looking towards options on where to buy stocks as a swede like 2 days ago, thinking the "payed online" would make the stock rise atleast next year.

 

[papertoonz]

Would you say that if it's going to be a fully 3D environment? I wouldn't even give 2 fucks which region i would be in if that's coming true someday. Except i like Gen 1 and 2 Pokes the most i guess.

what would 3D even bring? they wouldn't change the routes and world layout that much so it would be the same thing from a different angle

you're thinking there is going to be a big change of some sorts but it's just gonna look like Sun and Moon in a higher resolution

 

[nephilimdj]

Im predicting stars and tease for swittch version of pokken with a few new characters

 

[wwm0nkey]

They're not infallible. I obviously don't know if they're right or wrong, but I still think a 3DS-only release makes the most sense.

But why though? They spent years creating high quality models for X/Y and Sun/Moon so they could be used on a new platform and Gamefreak said they are working with the Switch

 

[CharminUltra]

Why does Nintendo hate Switch stock so much? Why are they so intent on murdering it?

 

[MiamiWesker]

Can someone tell me what Pokémon stars is?

 

[Sheroking]

They're not infallible. I obviously don't know if they're right or wrong, but I still think a 3DS-only release makes the most sense.

In a series of reports that has them correctly breaking every detail of a home console, they go so far as to NAME the Pokemon game coming to it.

They're not gonna be wrong on that one. This is common sense stuff.

 

[ChaosZeroX]

IF this is a Pokemon Switch announcement, I'm wondering why they wouldn't wait for their e3 direct.

Also this

Can someone tell me what Pokémon stars is?

 

[fossi8]

DetectiveGAF being unstoppable.

So how's going to be?

- We proudly announce Pokémon STARS for the Nintendo Switch.
- We will have more to announce next week stay tuned.
- Take a look for the new trailer.

I mean , that would take no longer than 5minutes. What about the other 3??

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

Can someone tell me what Pokémon stars is?

Rumored third version of Sun/Moon for Switch.

 

[DNAbro]

Oh no. It's totally going to be about Pokémon Go legendaries, isn't it? Didn't even think about it before I saw it in the poll.

Uhh no. It's not going to be that.

Can someone tell me what Pokémon stars is?

Rumored name for Pokemon Switch title that is a 3rd version of Sun/Moon.

 

[Yoshimitsu126]

I mean I guess?

It's like saying yeah it'll be raining tomorrow for a month and then it finally rains. It was going to rain eventually.

Worked out pretty well for California!!

 

[Vanillalite]

Can someone tell me what Pokémon stars is?

The thing dreams are made of!

 

[Lunafreya Nox Fleuret]

Please.

 

[T.O.P]

-Pokken Switch port
-Stars reveal
-Pokemon GO Legendary event dated

nghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

 

[MiamiWesker]

Rumored third version of Sun/Moon for Switch.

Uhh that would be galacticly huge.

 

[Sheroking]

Can someone tell me what Pokémon stars is?

The sequel or third version of Pokemon Sun/Moon that was leaked along with the Switch's vital information by Eurogamer last year.

 

[Zedark]

Can someone tell me what Pokémon stars is?

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2016-11-18-nintendo-switch-will-get-pokemon-sun-and-moon-version

 

[Neiteio]

Can someone tell me what Pokémon stars is?

Eurogamer leaked it around the day Sun and Moon came out. Apparently a Switch-exclusive HD "third edition" of Sun and Moon, with additional content.

 

[UnemployedVillain]

It's possible we get
1. Stars on the 3DS (and Switch too) this year
2. Hints at the new HD Pokemon game for the Switch. Kind of like what they did with S/M where they showed off concept art and the location/theme

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2016-11-18-nintendo-switch-will-get-pokemon-sun-and-moon-version

But still, from that link...lol

Last week we reported on the fact that the long-awaited The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild will miss the Nintendo Switch's March launch date and instead be released several months later, and that Mario would likely take its place at launch as Nintendo's big first-party title.

 

[Skittzo0413]

There's really been way too much smoke from the insiders to think this isn't about Stars on Switch. It being exclusive or not is another matter, but I think it's pretty safe to assume this is for Stars (still a code name, might be something else) on Switch.

Is DetectiveGaf fully redeemed now?

To be fair, saying "a Direct as soon as next week" is a pretty safe assumption to make.

Oh no. It's totally going to be about Pokémon Go legendaries, isn't it? Didn't even think about it before I saw it in the poll.

No, Nintendo would not have a Nintendo Direct for a Niantic game which isn't on a Nintendo platform.

C'mon guys, you don't have to be unreasonably pessimistic here.
