Maker and NSMB (including Wonder( are sister series, made by the same team. They've alternated for the past decade... sort of... so I think Maker 3 comes next. Of course, Maker 2 was a somewhat disappointing release in both sales and fan reaction so maybe its on ice now. I think its a nice change of pace though, "semi-annualization" really started to hurt NSMB after the first three games.
They may have been made by the same team, but work on Wonder started before Maker 2 came out.
Regardless, the idea of a new Mario in 2027 is still pure speculation on your part. Past release schedules don't dictate future ones and your "muh stuff in the pipeline" post is blisteringly retarded.
Past release schedules do dictate future ones.
That'd probably mean no 3D Mario for 2026 then... I hope that's not the case.
This is such a stupid hill to die on, I'm not even going to formulate an argument or post a link to the release history to any number of Nintendo's mainline franchises. I am just quoting your post to mock you.
Mein fucking neger, the Odyssey team just released DK Bananza. Unless they've been doing double duty (which I highly doubt), no shit there's not going to be a 3D Mario in the foreseeable future.
No, don't you see, they totally could create a 3D Mario game in just 14 months, release history doesn't mean anything.
I understand the trend of Nintendo's sales, but the Switch 2 is going to have a killer holiday season for one reason nobody here has mentioned.
You're 100% right. People just don't understand basic math. You see in the past 35 years, they've put out seven F-zero games. We can deduce from this that on average an F-Zero game comes out once every five years. Because F-zero 99 came out in 2023, a new F-zero is most likely coming out for Switch 2 in 2028, so we have that to look forward to. <------ Literally your posts
They stopped making F-Zero games in the late 90s, the ones that came out after that were made by Sega at a team that doesn't exist anymore.
We're not arguing at all. I agree with you 100%. If Wonder came out four years after Mario Maker 2 and the same team made both, that means a new 2D Mario is likely exactly four years after wonder. That's how video game development works. Everything is released in pre-determined patterns.
I can see Sony doing a PS5 bundle meant to entice adults (and kids let's be real) for GTA 6 coming out last year. Even if it doesn't come out for months, Christmas will be the last major sale before it. Sony will just hype up the pro for peak performance and lower the prices of these bundles to a reasonable price point that it looks like a great machine for movies, kid games (astro bot), and adult games like FIFA and GTA 6. Xbox is dead.
They still follow the trend, just less devastating in sales. GameBoy did extremely well while GBA had a decent sized drop-off, and the trend continued with DS and 3DS.
3D Zelda is certainly a long ways off, likely not even going to appear till 2028-2029.
This only matters if kids have any interest in the console. I think this is where things might bite Ninty in the ass. Most of their consumers are now 20+ years old. The entire video game market for under 20 is now being relegated to Fortnite, Roblox and Minecraft. Would be better to get the kids Robux and V-Bucks than pay Nintendo $500 for a console that plays two of the games like shit, and one isn't even playable on.
Yeah, I think that's going to end up being the story with the Switch 2 as well. It'll sell good, but not as good as Switch 1. 70-100 million units.
The movie is due to be released in six months, leading me to believe the Galaxy collection if the movie tie in.
Disagree. Parents will buy things just because and it's Christmas. If you don't think parents wont just buy their kids a Switch 2 whether they ask for it or not, then you're nuts. The parents don't actually give a shit or know about specs and problems with the Switch 2. They just see new Nintendo and go "here kids! Big expensive Christmas present!" regardless of whether the kids ask or actually want it. They'll still smile and play with it every now and again anyway.
It would be stupid to not make Mario maker 3. Mario maker 2 fixed some of the obvious issues of the first game (slopes, liquids), but added them in a retarded way. It's dumb that you can't add liquids to any theme or just place them down as pools. And the 3d world theme is stupidly restrictive for a game where the whole point was to mix and match assets from Mario's history. They also removed some cool shit from the first game like 100-mario challenge and the amibo costumes.
Yu suzuki's not dead yet. Let him have a shot at f-zero.
By the same logic they'd buy their kids PS5 because it's a big name and they don't care about whether it has games or not.
Id disagree solely because you can get your esoteric shitty F2P money of choice from V-Bucks to Robux at most places you can buy gift cards at, and id wager even a somewhat boomer retard is aware of how Giftcards work
They did lol. They did exactly that. Except they did it five years ago. They did it last year for Christmas. Parents usually do 1 big thing for Christmas and some little things. This year there is no new Sony console, so it will be Nintendo.
God you people are autistic. Let me get one thing straight. Kids do not buy consoles. Parents buy consoles. Kids do not buy Christmas presents themselves. Parents buy Christmas presents. They might ASK their kids what they want, but at the end of the day, the decision is up to them. Sometimes, your kid says "IDK". Well what then? You buy whatever the fuck you think they'll like.
Chill my nigger, i was just talking in general, i get that people wont buy them for Christmas, but for anything lesser its not that big of a hurdle to buy it for whatever the fuck their kids play
