omg take my $300 nintendo i want in on dem ARMS

(could be fun i dunno)

 

[Remapped88]

I'm pretty damn hyped, looks ton of fun! Dem leaks.....

 

[Peléo]

Seems amazing. Seems like the next step from Wii-Sports Boxing. If they pull it off and it controls good, has potential to be insanelly fun in local multi-player. Specially linked how they emphasised the more hardcore aspects of the game. It may even appeal to esports audience.

 

[Harpoon]

Looks fun as hell. Saddened at the hate I've been seeing.

 

[GloomyHitsuji]

Gameplay looks kinda fun, but I legit LOL when the presenter went Nobiiiiiiiiiiru AArms!!!

 

[KenOD]

I had fun with Ready To Rumble on Dreamcast as a launch game, so I'm okay with this. It could be nice silly fun.

 

[one_kill]

Seems fun to play with my little bro

 

[UnemployedVillain]

Looks fun as hell. Saddened at the hate I've been seeing.

They hated Splatoon too. Just wait

 

[psyfi]

This game looks seriously amazing. Can't wait.

 

[antitrop]

Looked like a ton of fun.

 

[Shin-Ra]

Problem I see with this control scheme is you have to manually reset your hand position from swinging to neutral to move your character's feet.

 

[Soulstar]

I just realized one of the reasons that I am really excited about this game is because it reminds me of Virtual-On.

 

[Ashodin]

game looks like power stone. I'm in

 

[Veal]

Game looks legit.

 

[wild wild rice]

We'll see. Hope it's not exclusively multiplayer.

 

[Kai Dracon]

I like it. It sure as hell looks like Platinum is behind it. Biggest difference between this and Wii Sports Boxing is that this is really fast and looks to be built around more reactive, snappy feeling mechanics.

The hate because OMG WAGGLE is just immature and unwarranted. The Switch is going to get ALL Nintendo games. There will be plenty of conventional first-party games. There's nothing wrong with a minority of gyroscope control titles being on the console, that doesn't at all mean it's Wii 2.

 

[Effect]

The more I look at this and think about it the more I want to play this.

 

[HyperHip]

This game looks fucking sick, loving the character design!

 

[Da-Kid]

New Nintendo IP is always great. Whole time I was watching all I could think about was Luffy's Gum Gum Pistol.

Only thing is.. while Swinging and Blocking is motion controlled, that's fine. I don't like that dodging and foot movements in general are motion controlled too when it's so easy to just let you use the Joystick on the Joy-con. We'll see.

 

[robotrock]

Is it platinum?

 

[thefro]

This looks neat, but I want to see more to judge it.

 

[PopcornMegaphone]

this looked like janky hot garbage.

 

[Galactic Specter]

I'm surprised they didn't just reuse the Punch-Out IP for this, it might as well be a successor.

 

[Magic Mushroom]

Best surprise to me. Looks fucking cool. As sparse as the line-up is (seriously, WTF?), Zelda, this, Mario, Splatoon 2, Xenoblade 2 and MK 8 Deluxe all push my buttons.

 

[DracoBlade]

I'm surprised they didn't just reuse the Punch-Out IP for this, it might as well be a successor.

Same. Should've called it: "Neo Punchout"

 

[Majukun]

looks promising, but all will depends on how much depth there is and how much control do you have... the concept is there

 

[Ogodei]

LEGS

The sequel, starring Cammy and Chun-Li and co-developed by Capcom.

 

[RedBoot]

I'm surprised they didn't just reuse the Punch-Out IP for this, it might as well be a successor.

I thought that too at first, but it makes sense. Punch Out isn't just a boxing game, it suggests a certain precision style of gameplay, like we saw in the NES, SNES, and Wii titles. This is something else.

This is kind of what I wanted from a Wii Punch Out, though (not that what we got was bad).

 

[Bulbasaur]

Highlight of the presentation for me.

 

[KooopaKid]

Is it platinum?

No, Nintendo Japan.

 

[RobertM]

Samba de Arms.

 

[Watch Da Birdie]

In the presentation I found it odd the dude pointed out "it has a battle mode of course", implying there were other modes...

An adventure mode? It seems like it'll be the next Splatoon perhaps, and I like the character designs.

 

[Golnei]

This looks great. I kinda wish it was some kind of punch-out spin-off though.

[Malus]

At first I thought it was visually very good looking but not sold on the gameplay, the extra characters and abilities gave it some much needed depth. Very interesting.

 

[NaDannMaGoGo]

When they showed the two people going at it PvP I thought "hey, that looks pretty fun" but, the way they presented it would only work for VR. In reality you aren't going to face the other person but the screen.

Really, for VR I think this sort of game could be great but outside of that, mehhhhhhhh.

 

[timetokill]

This looked like it could actually be pretty deep... and looks fun as hell. Hope the controls hold up.

 

[Usobuko]

This does looks fun to play but the most important thing is the implementation.

 

[Falchion]

This actually looked pretty fun, especially with the motion controls and having the system docked so you could see it on the big screen.

 

[wapplew]

Killer App. The answer to make fighting game for everyone!

 

[SpacePirate Ridley]

Actually looks fun and digging a lot the artstyle. Seems to have some king of story mode? Thats would be neat

-

Wuld actually mind having Little Mac as an unlockable secret character.

 

[Regiruler]

Game is $60

 

[freethoughtbubble]

Virtual On X Punch Out

I'm in!

 

[Neoleo2143]

Game is $60

So it's a fully featured game by the Mario Kart Team?

The game sounds wonderful and very inspired.

 

[Somnid]

This one looks weird. Dunno what to think but I can't say I can think of anything like it so that's a plus.

 

[Shaanyboi]

looks like could actually be fun... Hopefully more than Wii Sports Boxing...

 

[CharminUltra]

Game looks fun. Dunno about longevity, tho.

 

[Neoleo2143]

Game looks fun. Dunno about longevity, tho.

Multiple characters who play differently sounds great for longevity.

 

[UnemployedVillain]

Seems amazing. Seems like the next step from Wii-Sports Boxing. If they pull it off and it controls good, has potential to be insanelly fun in local multi-player. Specially linked how they emphasised the more hardcore aspects of the game. It may even appeal to esports audience.

This seems a bit reductive. This seems like the new garage game, in vein of Splatoon, not some more feature rich Wii Sports

 

[outunderthestars]

$60 price at bestbuy

 

[Shahadan]

Secret T-rex character or no buy
