People are fucking crazy, I tell ya.
Please, can you name any console release with 3 huge IPs attached to it?
I will be waiting.
Yes if I can already play BOTW ON Wii U.
Reading is extremely hard

Wii U launched with NSMBU and then didn't get Pikmin 3, the infamous launch window title, for like 8 months

If this would qualify as one of the worst ever, I'd question how many launches you've actually experienced day one.
Open-world Zelda/Splatoon sequel/Possibly a new 3D Mario at launch easily makes this stronger than the PS4/XB1 launches.

Note: There are TONS of domains listed. Still have some doubt, but doing what digging I can.
It's not going to have sprites anyway, taking away any charm the series had.
Agreed. Not sure where that type of talk is coming from. If the leak list is simply the day one lineup, I can't wrap my head around calling it weak. We know we will see more today and we know we will get more this year.

Honestly if true I could just see it being a case of Nintendo wanting to focus on their own games at a preview event rather than an indication of third party support

Wii U doesn't have a 3D Mario game.
[*rapidly approaching police sirens*]
Ok I just saw that 4chan leak. Man, just the fact that BoTW, Splatoon 2 and a brand new 3D Mario will be playable it's universal years better than Wii U's launch. I already got the thinking of just purchasing those three games only if they came at launch. With a bunch of third party ones such as Skyrim. Now I'm just worried there won't be a lot of western 3rd party games :c

Probably some wario/rythm esque game.
Maybe they have an ichi/switch pun in the Japanese title?

Ha, no one has learned anything. Give it until the next "leaker" says something on Twitter and people will be right back at it. Hell, it could be the exact same "leaker" as before. No one will care.
Can somebody clarify something for me? I've seen it posted before that with the Switch's docking mechanism, it will no longer be possible to have a different screen on the gamepad vs what's show on the tv, a la Nintendoland. Is this true? That kind of multiplayer was one of my favorite parts of the Wii U, so I'll be disappointed if it's removed.
If nobody knows yet, I guess I can wait till tonight to find out.

I see too great symbol (for me) in that leak.
Bomberman at launch, it's been a while...
Disgaea 5 >> It represents the kind of Vita/PS4 games that Nintendo has to steal to conquer japan fully. Not huge sale wise but it represent a demographic that is not specially on Nintendo console. An older group liking Nipon Ichi but also falcom games for exemple.

I started trying to go to sleep at 3AM. I went to sleep at 6AM. It is now 11 AM and am fully awake. The event starts at 10 PM my timezone. I'll probably be awake due to hype until atleast 2 AM. I have not been sleeping that well lately. My eyes are already burning due to lack of sleep. Its going to be a long day. Help.

Exactly that's why I find nothing ground breaking for wii U buyers.
That was the launch line up of the Gamecube in Europe.
Thank you for this perspective. The best PS4 launch game was probably flipping Lego Marvel Super Heroes.
Interesting. Also, this little part interests me:
Guess those rings at the end of this GIF make a little more sense now:
You'd have to "fly" to get through them, in some sense. And so far I can only think of two ways Mario can fly:
The return of the Sky Pop? The return of Sarasaland, perhaps?! Tatanga and Daisy too? I know it might be a stretch, but I'm dreaming.
And, again, it says a lot that NIS might be leading off with Disgaea 5, rather than their usual thing of yet another D1/Phantom Brave port.

Monolith's new game isn't going to be close to playable yet whether it shows up or not
"Odyssey" just doesn't sound right to me. I actually had to look up the right spelling before posting. Normally Nintendo titles have easy to pronounce, simple subtitles. Super Mario Land/World/Galaxy. Everyone knows these words, even a kid. Odyssey though? I live in the Netherlands which has one of the highest EF EPI scores of the world and I think most people here could not tell you what odyssey means. Actually, I didn't really know what it is either... I just looked it up .
My point is, it doesn't really seem very Nintendo-like and it sounds like the subtitle of a fanmade Mario game.

Wii U launch has 2D Mario and Nintendoland. System sellers are Zelda and 3D Mario...

That just proves the 4chan guy can hunt around the internet for obscure info, something we already knew thanks to the frozenbyte patent, id also imagine nintendo have a tonne of supermario************.com domains registered
I can only assume you are four years old and were not born at the time of the WiiU launch.
This is the only way I can reconcile such a dumb statement with reality.
Yes, today's leaks clearly showed us something about yesterday's leaks.

Keep in mind people are mostly saying it's "meh" for them, not that it's a bad launch line up in general appeal or anything.
Every console launch is going to be "meh" for a fair amount of folks as there are relatively few great games (if any really--PS4 and X1 launch for many, e.g.) so they can't cover ever genre and some are going to be disinterested.
This is shaping up to be a great launch line up for the majority of Nintendo fans. And that's what they needed to do as that's the group that will early adopt and keep it selling the first 2-3 months.
It's the period after that launch window were they can start putting out more stuff in different genres that may bring in some of the people that are tired of/never into Zelda and Mario.

Anyone expecting Wii U launch parity for BOTW is going to be disappointed. No way this isn't a twilight princess situation
Doesn't 2D Mario sell a more than 3D mario?

What time does presentation go live here in states?
I mean it's probably a long shot, but it would a cool fit if they goong for another 2D entry. I really liked the idea after you mentioned it yesterday.
To be fair, Metroid has been able to do that by segmenting the areas up into smallish pieces behind doors, and only loading one at a time.
Agree there, although I get the impression that he really isnt doing much work anymore. It always seems to be his team doing the composition work these days.
Does not even mean they are launch games.
People really acting like they have no clue about this industry at all.
