Midori has some insider knowledge at Sega for sure, whether she knows anything about Nintendo or not is up in the air but her track record on Sega is 100% accurate.

      that doesn't exactly mean it's not backwards compatible. I mean supposing the leak is true, which I doubt they are since nintendo would rather have people play a new game rather than an older one, they can just make a version bundling the DLCs for people that didn't buy botw before

      Not really, but if it is bc then the game wont miraculously upgrade itself, backwards compat at best would stop performance issues, higher res, improved load times, upgraded assets would require a remaster and re-release, and could be offered as a paid upgrade, but think of things this way, breath of the wild is still available on store shelves and those copies are reprints that are pre patched, the title is evergreen, and what better way to make it even more ebergreen by just releasing the upgrade in physical for new players to enjoy, hell if nintendo were cheeky enough they could relaunch a 2 in 1 version that works on either hardware.

        BotW is going to become Nintendo's Skyrim. It'll be ported to every future Nintendo console for the next three decades at least. At least that means they can freely move on from the BotW formula with future titles.

          Botw was the best selling zelda game by a large margin and Totk easily became the second best selling shortly after release. Nintendo isn't going to pass up on those sale numbers by going back to the old formula

            TotK already sold less than BotW, they can't just keep making BotW over and over and expect not to have diminishing returns. I'm not saying they'll go back to the linear dungeon formula but they should move on and do something new, not make another big empty green field game.

      Not even taking into account how ToTK completely reworks the entire physics systems from BoTW, watch their GDC presentation on ToTK. They had to rebuild a lot of stuff from the ground up to make it work with their new mechanics, it's not a simple add-on.

          Nintendo is going to need something to pad the release schedule and they're out of Wii U ports. We might actually see them remaster certain Switch games while others get a free upgrade. BotW at 60 FPS and better graphics would probably actually sell well for people that didn't already do that on Cemu.

              The 3rd party exclusives aren't going to be there because no publisher does exclusives unless they're paid to and Nintendo is going to need filler titles as games keep taking longer to develop. The PS5 ran into similar issues, games kept releasing on PS4 because it had 120 million units sold and Sony's 3rd party exclusives are all timed. Nintendo isn't going to magically get around this, the Switch 2 is going to be scalped to hell and back just like the PS5 was so In 2 years when the Switch 2 is readily available, the hype for the next gen consoles will be out. Give it 2 years after that and we'll see games missing the PS5/XSX/Switch 2 again unless there's so massive shakeup in the industry. Companies have already ported most of their games to the Switch 1 already, there's not much they can do other than some recent games that people have already played elsewhere and if we're talking about games on XSX/PS5/PC then the Switch 2 is most likely still running them worse.

              Pragmatically, it's easy to see the Switch 2 having lackluster 3rd party support compared to this gen where it had some good 3rd party exclusives(that have recently been getting ported elsewhere, the same issue the ps4 had)

                TotK just took 6 years and we haven't gotten a new 3D Mario since Odyssey at launch. Games are taking longer for everyone to develop and if the Switch 2 is a jump in quality(and from leaks it sounds like a gigantic leap) that's most likely going to lead to a jump in development time and costs even for Nintendo's first party titles. There needs to be something to bridge the gap between their new first party releases though, with the Switch they used Wii U ports as the main one with some remakes thrown in.

                TOTK is an anomaly but we haven't gotten a new 3D Mario because they usually only do one "main" Mario game per system. The only exception was the Wii with Galaxy and Galaxy 2 but every other system has only had one, so it's not weird in the slightest that they didn't do an Odyssey 2. It's not because of long dev times, it's simply a choice. Also I'm not really sure why you keep saying the Switch was padded with Wii U ports because year 1 the only ports were MK8D and Bayo 2. Every other first party game Nintendo released in their time frame was a new game. In year 2 I think it was just Tropical Freeze and Hyrule Warriors. You're acting like they released one game and had nothing else but ports.

                party exclusives are dying unless companies pay for exclusivity
                No one said anything about exclusivity, third party games that release on switch already sell more as it is if they release simultaneously. Then there are ports that people may actually want like the souls trilogy or something like that.
                On top of that you have third party spin offs of Nintendo properties that can remain exclusive since they funded it like how the switch had games like New Pokemon Snap and Metroid Dread.

                You're telling people to look at the big picture but you're hyper fixating on one thing.

                >third party games that release on switch already sell more as it is if they release simultaneously.
                Only in Japan where it's counting physical sales. The Switch isn't outselling PC globally for third party releases. And no, that is the big picture. A 3DS port of Rayman 2 is cute, people hadn't played that in a decade. A port of Elden Ring next year at launch when people already played it at release on another device and then again this year to get ready for the DLC is a different story.

                TOTK is an anomaly but we haven't gotten a new 3D Mario because they usually only do one "main" Mario game per system. The only exception was the Wii with Galaxy and Galaxy 2 but every other system has only had one, so it's not weird in the slightest that they didn't do an Odyssey 2. It's not because of long dev times, it's simply a choice. Also I'm not really sure why you keep saying the Switch was padded with Wii U ports because year 1 the only ports were MK8D and Bayo 2. Every other first party game Nintendo released in their time frame was a new game. In year 2 I think it was just Tropical Freeze and Hyrule Warriors. You're acting like they released one game and had nothing else but ports.

                > The only exception was the Wii with Galaxy and Galaxy 2 but every other system has only had one,
                Because those generations lasted about as half as long as the Switch.

                > Also I'm not really sure why you keep saying the Switch was padded with Wii U ports because year 1 the only ports were MK8D and Bayo 2
                I'm talking about the entire lifespan and I'm envisioning the life span of the Switch 2, which is why I brought up next gen consoles coming out in 2027 when the Switch 2 comes out in 2025.

                piss easy. and if they drop M4 launch year it's game set match

                Bold move to alienate 140 million potential customers when the Switch 2 is going to get scalped for the first year or 2. The software sales are going to be PS5 level if they do that and they have to hope shiny new boxes 2 years in don't distract people from wanting a Switch 2 once they're available.

                >TotK just took 6 years
                Totk wasn't in development the moment they finished Botw you know, it only went into development in 2019.
                On top of that several Zelda games came out in that time frame
                The LA remake
                Age of Calamity
                Cadence
                Not to mention the dlc for Botw itself.

                Dude, you're bringing up Zelda games that Nintendo didn't even develop themselves, 1 being an indie reskin. You're also ignoring that the Switch being weaker is what's leading to quicker development times. Which is a good thing, graphics plateaud after the PS3. That's one of the strengths of the Switch because they don't have to chase better graphics. The Switch 2 is going to lead to the same development creep that we saw going from the PS3 to PS4. Nintendo is not magic, they are subject to the same bullshit that everyone else is unless AI streamlines development in these upcoming years.

                The odds of it following the same trajectory as everyone else is very likely. I doubt I can change your mind if you're tilting at windmills and assuming I'm some schizo that you even have a name for because you're deep in the console war trenches and I'm trying to look at this objectively.

                >The Switch isn't outselling PC globally for third party releases.
                It already is. Of the four platforms the switch consistently the highest seller with PC in second and PS in a distant third.
                I don't even have to mention Xbox.
                >And no, that is the big picture.
                How is it the big picture to ignore everything that doesn't suit your argument? I listed three things you didn't even take into account after you went on exclusivity tangent.
                >. A port of Elden Ring next year at launch
                Okay? You know skyrim of all games sold a lot on Switch, right? A considerably older game?
                A game like Elden Ring going to switch 2 would no doubt be a massive seller especially if it's a decent version of the game given the only two good versions are the PC and PS4 versions, the latter needing a PS5 to run well.

                Again, you need to take your own advice and look at the big picture.
                Also, you're only taking into account large AAA games and absolutely nothing else.

                >It already is. Of the four platforms the switch consistently the highest seller with PC in second and PS in a distant third.
                There might be some smaller niche JRPGs where that's the case but for your average game, that's not happening and you can thank China for that.

                Which is what I brought up with Rayman 2. Enough time had passed that people were willing to replay it. Asking people to replay an 80 hour game a couple of years after launch is a tall ask. A lot of people skip Atlus' releases one way or another because of that. They either skip the initial release of SMTV and P5 to play SMTVV or P5R in the future or they play the initial release and then never touch the newer version even when it has new content.

                >Also, you're only taking into account large AAA games and absolutely nothing else.
                Look at how long many indie games stay in early access if you want a non AAA example.

                It's in general. You'd be hard pressed to find a simultaneous release that sold more on switch than any other platform, it's pretty much exclusive to shovelware titles like fifa.

                Anon, Rayman 2 didn't sell on 3DS. It's not about how old the title is, it's about how popular it is.
                >Asking people to replay an 80 hour game a couple of years after launch is a tall ask.
                It's really not. People will replay it if it's on a platform they want especially if they only did one run initially.
                Just look at how many double dipped on MHW when it came to PC for instance, it's longer than 80 hours and it ended up becoming the best selling version of the game.
                >A lot of people skip Atlus' releases one way or another because of that. They either skip the initial release of SMTV and P5 to play SMTVV or P5R in the future or they play the initial release and then never touch the newer version even when it has new content.
                Why would you pick the two best selling megaten games in their respective branches to prove your point?

                I'd say it's a mix of both. If it's too recent then I don't think people will pull the trigger on it unless they're the kind of person that HAS to have the Switch 2 day 1 and Elden Ring is the only decent game on it then which seems unlikely. I can't see Nintendo not having at least 1 big game that's not on the regular Switch that everyone will be buying. A mainline Mario seems like the obvious answer.

                >It's really not. People will replay it if it's on a platform they want especially if they only did one run initially.
                The DLC is what throws a wrench into that, in my opinion. The game will still be fresh again if it launches on the Switch 2 next year. If you want to argue that Switch only players will buy it, then sure. That is very possible like with MHW where even more PC only players bought it but also remember that for PC ports, it's often the best version of the game and that's why they double dip. The Switch 2 will still be weaker than contemporary consoles so it's relying on the portability to be a boon. Which is absolutely the case, portable ER might be appealing to some but those people had the Deck available to them for years already.

                >Why would you pick the two best selling megaten games in their respective branches to prove your point?
                Persona 5 sold 3.2 million copies just on PC/PS4 but P5R sold 4 million copies on PC, Switch, PS4/PS5, and Xbox. P5R has more sales total but a lot of those are people that did not play the first game.

                To say that Cadence is a reskins of Necrodancer is horrendously wrong when the two games only have the rythym gameplay to tie them together, Cadence isn't even a roguelike.
                >You're also ignoring that the Switch being weaker is what's leading to quicker development times.
                Power has literally nothing to do with the length of development otherwise there would be less games coming to the switch than the Wii U and 3ds and the Nintendo systems before it but there's more, the only Nintendo system almost 30 years that a similar output was the DS.
                >The Switch 2 is going to lead to the same development creep that we saw going from the PS3 to PS4
                Are you trying to say it was harder to make games for the PS4 when the PS3 had more complex and awkward architecture leading to less games?
                I feel like you're someone who took "no gaems" literally.
                >Nintendo is not magic
                Correct hence why their development cycles aren't just going to magically extend because you say so. One of Nintendo's best qualities was always managing their development process so they don't run into the same problem everyone else did.

                They also play nothing like the series usually does, they're other games with a skin on them and that includes Cadence. Koei Tecmo has made so many similar games to Hyrule Warriors for other franchises like P5, Fate, and Fire Emblem that it's a stretch to even treat it anywhere close to the mainline games. To me that's on the same level as comparing Mario Sports to actual Mario games.

                >Power has literally nothing to do with the length of development otherwise there would be less games coming to the switch than the Wii U
                There is not much difference between the Wii U and Switch. There's more than the Gamecube and Wii but let's not act like it was a true generational leap because it's still much weaker than the base Xbox One. Which is why Nintendo is still enjoying 2010 era development times. Which again, is a huge plus for the system and I'm not saying that as a negative. The Switch graphics are fine as is.

                >Which is why Nintendo is still enjoying 2010 era development times
                Again, it's not a power thing, it's a management thing. Nintendo keeps their teams small, if you've ever looked at AAA game teams they're numbering in the 1000s with a lot people just rotating out during development or certain parts being outsourced that's what makes development so long for everyone else.
                >Except on Mario and Zelda mainline titles
                Are you an idiot or do you just not understand the idea of just, not pumping out yearly games? Mario in particular pretty much only gets one game per system/gen, that's nothing new. In fact, to go back to the development time/difficulty argument, there should be more Mario games in gen 6 than 9 right? But the only mainline Mario game was Sunshine, 2d Mario was essentially dead at the time. Does that mean it was harder to make games on the gamecube than it is on the switch? No, they just don't rehash like other companies.

                Look at how unsuccessful the sequel was though. The OG got a launch window bonus. But the problem is that Hyrule Warriors isn't very different from every other similar game that Omega Force cranks out like the FE game, P5S, F/SR, etc. It's Dynasty Warriors with a themed twist.

                >Mario in particular pretty much only gets one game per system/gen, that's nothing new.
                You limit it to 3D mario but go back further and Mario was swimming in games but then the consoles lifetime became 4 to 5 years. That's such a major difference that's being glossed over. Look at what 8 years was back in those days

                That was 3 games instead of 2 because the generations were shorter.

    I'm not defending the decision but what I see online is that not many people know 8 years is a lot of time, even if it's still available and retrocompatible.

    If it did have all the DLC on the cart and ran at 60fps, I’d buy it again. $70 is northing to me. It would be worth it just for all the brown, third world monkey salt that would be spilled on here.

      His resource is from Sega, so I don't think it is BoTW remasters.

      Another spin-off developed by Sega makes more sense.

    Nintendo is greedy but not stupid
    They need a original launch game to sell as many consoles as possible.

    What are some games you would like to see Switch 2 enhancements for?
    For me it's Smash Ultimate, Astral Chain, Pikmin 4, Metroid Dread and Fire Emblem Engage. All of them would be well served by framerate enhancements, resolution enhancements or both.

        Better hope they decide on a good online system during pre-production of the next game, then. I don't think it'd exactly be easy or worthwhile to patch rollback into Smash Ultimate.

        Every time someone posts a "leak" it's usually about a re-release of some game that already came out. Like holy shit, if you're going to write corporate fan fiction, dream bigger. That's the ideal scenario? They find a way to resell you the same game you already bought?

    The BOTW rerelease will be the Japan exlusive version with all DLC on cart that has been out for years there.

    IT wont even have enanched features. The game will just run better with the more RAM the new Switch model has and nothing more

        The Gamescom demo was apparently presented with the caveat that it was purely a tech demo and didn't suggest anything about a Switch 2 port of BotW, so it's not necessarily an indication towards this rumor being true but it's also possible they changed their mind and decided to go through with the port. Maybe the reception to the Gamescom leak could have been a factor in going ahead with it, who knows?

        Yeah, but Nintendo's particularly predatory when it comes to these practices, and most remasters from other companies aren't the same price as they were on release.
