Lol. You are doing us all a huge favor by even attempting something like this. greatly appreciated.

Oh, I knew you were joking, haha.

I'm hoping the next two weeks are a bit better, as this has been a pretty pathetic year so far overall.

I'd expect next week, between famitsu and likely nintendo direct to have a decent amount of stuff.

Agree so far its pretty underwhelming as far as impactful software.

 

[Nirolak]

Some additions:

Thanks.

I think most of those are in the previous weeks though, with the exception of Summer Lesson (was this not DLC?) and Resident Evil 7: Gold Edition (which I definitely forgot, and have added).

 

[Busaiku]

When is TGS.

 

[Nirolak]

When is TGS.

September 21st.

The Sony event is the 19th. Most people think a Nintendo Direct is soon too.

 

[salromano]

Thanks.

I was just going by your first bullet:

"The list will include all games announced from August 1st until the end of TGS..."

All of these were announced after August 1:

Kamen Rider - Announced on September 3

Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio titles - Announced on August 26

Summer Lesson - Tease-announced on August 31, fully announced September 7

Summer Lesson isn't DLC. It's standalone. This, the Hikari Miyamoto game, and the Allison Snow game are all separate releases. =)

If you look at the post, Nirolak does it weekly and does new announcements for the prior week. There are links to previous weeks

Ooooh, woops. Big oversight there.

Carry on. =P

 

[Nirolak]

I've added in Summer Lesson as well. Thanks.

To be less vague, I have leaked or confirmed leaks before. Also as far as I know I'm 100% accurate still. Give or take a few games that haven't been announced and/or officially cancelled yet. I try to be pretty open about what I know while at the same time protecting my sources. Prior to the Switch release I let out quite a lot of info that most people claimed was bullshit (no Netflix or 3rd party apps, the amount of RAM, etc) also I mentioned a Rockstar game was coming long long ago and again people cried foul, and when LA Noir leaked I confirmed that was the game I had also heard was coming. Now what, 2 days ago I was proven to be correct once again with that one. Not to toot my own horn but 🎺🎺...

Spoiler

sorry if I sound cocky I'm just having fun... all I do is repeat and share info I hear from my sources, it's nothing to be proud of or cocky about lol. Just passing on info from time to time

You definitely have good sources. Other people appeared to be intentionally misdirected.

[hiska-kun]

2.300 switches this week on Bic Camera's lottery. Last week they were 2.600. So a small drop to be expected.

Around ~45k based on this numbers.

So what are predictions for DBX2 for Switch?
30k? 40k?

5k

 

[KtSlime]

Probably close to whatever they shipped. I went to a few of the local game shops and couldn't find any copies. Big online retailers are out of stock, and it will be a few weeks before they get any more, and the small retailers have a good markup. They probably printed twice whatever they did for One Piece, so I'd guess closer to 30k.

 

[Yagami_Sama]

Steins;Gate Elite, as per Sega TGS page, is listed for Switch too :

http://tgs.sega.jp/title/title_p9_sge.html

 

[Vena]

5k

Its largely sold out, expectations should be ~30k unless the shipment is bizarrely small or large.

 

[BrokenJohnCena]

But it could mean that it was sold out due to a pretty low shipment,right?

 

[KtSlime]

It could, but that would be a very odd and unlikely decision to come from Bamco, don't you agree? It's strange to think we could be living in a universe where they printed fewer copies of DBX2 than OP:R.

I would think less people would show up for these things over time

crazy numbers

I was thinking about going to Fujisawa, grabbing a ticket and spending some time on the beach, but I checked the weather today and went back to bed instead cause I already have a Switch.

 

[Busaiku]

In Japan?
One Piece is bigger than Dragon Ball ever was.

 

[KtSlime]

You don't have to explain that to me, I am well aware. I am specifically talking about these two games.

 

[Sandfox]

30k would be a really good number for DB.

 

[jmizzal]

I still feel like we'll get an expanded Smash port in Q1. It's the perfect way to cap off Switch's 1st year and it gives Arms and Pokken DX enough breathing room to firmly establish themselves.

Mario Maker seems more like a sequel now though. And maybe not in 2018 even given we've already got Kirby and Yoshi lined up.

Nintendo will have to have some big online game Q1 if they really think many people outside of Splatoon die hards are gonna pay for their online service.

 

[Aters]

In Japan?
One Piece is bigger than Dragon Ball ever was.

Holy shit really? I thought DB's all time high is absolutely insurmountable.

 

[BrokenJohnCena]

Nintendo will have to have some big online game Q1 if they really think many people outside of Splatoon die hards are gonna pay for their online service.

or they could just cancel the online service and charge 5 bucks for the netflix-style nes-snes classics

 

[Nilaul]

Nintendo will have to have some big online game Q1 if they really think many people outside of Splatoon die hards are gonna pay for their online service.

Charging for Mario maker's online after paying full price would be atrocious without the online component the game is basically useless. I hope they exclude some games from the service but then again its 2017 and atrocious things seem to be the norm.

 

[hongcha]

Steins;Gate Elite, as per Sega TGS page, is listed for Switch too :

Might be an error. The official website only says PS4/vita:

Ditto for 5pb's tgs page:

[Skullwaker]

You don't have to explain that to me, I am well aware. I am specifically talking about these two games.

Yeah, if I recall correctly both Xenoverse games performed far better than any version of OP:UWR. I'm expecting XV2's FW to be ~30k, based on YSO's predictions and the fact that it's sold out.

 

[Sammy Samusu]

So what are predictions for DBX2 for Switch?

27k

 

[Busaiku]

The 3DS game debuted at 83k.
Xenoverse 2 at 66k.

 

[Skullwaker]

The 3DS game debuted at 83k.
Xenoverse 2 at 66k.

I stand corrected.

Still, this is like the 5th version of UWR and only the second version of XV2 (and it's the only portable version) so it should be expected to perform significantly better.

 

[Aters]

Nintendo will have to have some big online game Q1 if they really think many people outside of Splatoon die hards are gonna pay for their online service.

Mario Kart?

 

[Fisico]

I'm thinking that Tales might be announced during Sony TGS conf, assuming it's Vesperia Remake.

Remaster.

9000 developers alone, think about how many people could leak a game.

Even more than that, but it's not like every Ubisoft's employee has access/knowledge to what every team worldwide is doing, even at HQ there are some studios where people have no idea what they're doing (minus Guillemot and a few people at the very top of the company)
When it's from Montreal and/or involve multiple studio it's clearly a mess though (which is why everything Assassin's Creed related leaks every single time) to the point they're not even trying to avoid leaks so much anymore.

but come on,a port of Xenoverse 2 performing that well is pretty weird also

 

[random25]

One Piece is bigger than Dragon Ball ever was.

To be fair, OP:R is a port of an already ancient game. At least XV2 is just last year.

 

[Hero of Legend]

but come on,a port of Xenoverse 2 performing that well is pretty weird also

I wouldn't say that.

Famitsu:

Dragon Ball Heroes: Ultimate Mission - 90.119 / 299.001
Dragon Ball Heroes: Ultimate Mission 2 - 70. 832 / 217.185
Dragon Ball Fusions - 81.548 / 194.375
Dragon Ball Heroes: Ultimate Mission X - 92.809 / 180.903
Dragon Ball: Extreme Butoden - 68.398 / 150.989

All on 3DS. The system by far was the most popular for the series in a really long time IIRC.

 

[MoonFrog]

Is this Steins;Gate game a version of the original and/or 0 or something else?

Hope visual novels find a home on Switch either way (and text adventure games too).

 

[Zalman]

It's a remake of the original with added story elements. We don't know much else yet.

Thanks.

...

But yeah, it is a genre I haven't delved too far into but am interested in. (Pretty much just played Steins;Gate truth be told ).

And I think that is a part of the Vita scene that Switch could absorb. It seems like it could be a good home if portability is important to audiences for them.

...

And then I do also hope we get more DS/3DS/PSP/Vita style text adventure games on Switch too. I'll be happy if/when Ace Attorney makes the jump, for example.

 

[Vena]

I'm thinking that Tales might be announced during Sony TGS conf, assuming it's Vesperia Remake.

Its as Nirolak said, Sony isn't likely to have much in the pipeline any more (that we don't already know about) and Tales Of would definitely be something to see in their pre-TGS conference if it exists. Whatever the case, they'll do most of their focus on MH and probably MH bundles in lieu of strong games this holiday.

 

[BrokenJohnCena]

I wouldn't say that.

heh,fair enough
