Well that sucked

Live action Legend of Zelda movie coming out in March 2027.

No casting news and for the scope of what it should be doesn't seem like much time.

Very risking going live action over animation too.

My GOAT gaming franchise, I hope they do it justice. Not confident though.

Apparently it's going to be a trilogy.

Not a fan of the Zelda series but definitely will watch the first movie at least, knowing how important and historic the franchise is to Nintendo history

There will also be two Treehouse live events across 3rd and 4th of April hands on with Switch 2 games

I’m in Japan on the 3rd May for a week, was really hoping for the switch to release by then!

Less than 5 hours to go now before Switch 2 is finally introduced to the world.

 

[mighty_sainters]

Chat feature is cool!

 

[Mantastic]

Good presentation. Just need the price now!

 

[eDPS]

Price not being there is hmmmm

 

[mighty_sainters]

I’ll pay anything for that.

 

[eDPS]

I think we are looking at $740 base and $800 for Mario Kart pack in

It will sell like no tomorrow regardless of the price.
I'm already going to try and get it as soon as launch as possible.

The name of the new Donkey Kong game is just perfect

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

So Mario Kart the only exclusive at launch lol

I was hoping Mertriod Prime 4 will be launch too need to wait a month for Donkey Kong Banaza that should have been a launch title

Mario Kart
Metriod 4
Donkey Kong

That would have been a banger launch line up

Hopefully dickhead Trump's Tariffs won't affect the price here too much, but we are still looking at a price of around $650 - 750 (ish)

You wouldn’t dare launch another Nintendo game with Mario Kart it would be set up to fail. Need to give people time with Mario Kart before brining out any more heavy hitters

$699 at EB Games or $769 with the Mario Kart World bundle

 

[Mantastic]

Just pre-ordered the Mario Kart bundle and a Pro Controller. Price was basically bang on what I predicted earlier in the thread.

CarnTheScray, I hope you prepared yourself for the disappointment, nowhere near what you thought it would cost.

Yeah mate I’m disappointed, just emptied my wallet out in sorrow.

It's steep but that was a banging Direct, lots of great stuff coming this year.

I was actually expecting less from the hardware. I know 4K and HDR isn’t exactly new anymore but seeing Nintendo games run at 4K 120fps is mental. The third party games look like they run well too.

If I trade in my OLED I get the 2 for around the same price as what I got the OLED for so money wise I’ll be okay.

 

[Ry009]

One title at launch I don't get why that's an issue, it should have been at least bigger flagship title like 3D Mario/Zelda/Donkey Kong though.

Price, yeah not cheap - but better tech being put into them isn't going to make them cheaper. End of the day you need to decide on the trade off between portability and performance of the other consoles. I don't think it's obscenely bad as it's being made out.
