Star Fox Grand Prix, Mario Tennis Aces, Nintendo Power Cast Ep.94 May 18, 2018

Show notes

News/Talking Points Mario Tennis Aces will be getting a demo on May 24th Online tournament will be June 1st Sushi Strikers Story Trailer Pokemon Rumors LetsGoPikachu.com and LetsGoEevee Have been purchased for Nintendo by the same company that purchased Sun and Moons domains Go Vacation will be out July 27th, it's a Wii port that will feature over 50 minigames and multiplayer games. No online play. Layton’s Mystery Journey is being ported to the Switch from the 3DS Star Fox Grand Prix is less like F-Zero Nintendo Life article First up, Robertson is keen to stress that the game isn't like F-Zero; we're speculating here but it sounds like it's more akin to NGen Racing on the PlayStation, a game from the creator of Wipeout which saw players racing against one another in fighter jets. Gameplay mixes racing with classic Star Fox moments; blasting enemies will give you a speed boost and you can shoot other players, too. Each Grand Prix consists of three tracks and boss battle, and when you're not racing you can walk around a hub area and interact with famous faces from the Star Fox series (Robertson has heard that Retro is even considering introducing characters from outside of the franchise, such as Donkey Kong). The hub also offers up new story elements and races. Finally, Robertson says that the name is subject to change and that the game could release as early as this year, although 2019 is also a possibility. http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2018/05/rumour_fresh_details_of_star_fox_grand_prix_suggest_its_not_like_f-zero_at_all_thanks_very_much Fake Leaks (printed Email) Punch-Out, Star Fox, Metroid, Fallout 3, Zelda Link’s Awakening remake for 3DS Leaks are fun to read about. @theJWittz tweeted “I can't believe people are still falling for "paper leaks", where someone takes a picture of a piece of paper they printed and pretend it's an E3 setlist. I don't think I have ever seen one of these to be true. It's fake leaks for people with zero Photoshop skill.” Retro Flashback Duck Hunt Switch Friend Code 8202-5241-5057 Click here to purchase NPC Shirt Join N64Josh Discord Check out my Patreon Check out OPSeat.com the official chair of the Nintendo Power CastUse Code N64JOSH Get your free audio book from Audible and help support this cast.

Quote from Senior Vice President of Marketing Pete Hines "We have some surprises in store," he said. "We're gonna be talking about a healthy number of new games and new projects and... look, I'm really excited. We've been working on E3 for this year since September of last year. I'm already seven, eight months into working on E3, but I really like how it's coming along. I think there's gonna be something in there for everyone regardless of what you play on or what kind of games you're into, and my biggest hope always is that we deliver on the promise of E3.""I think we promised a lot of stuff last year, we shipped every one of those games and they were all really good quality - I think we had the highest Metacritic rating of any publisher in 2017 - and that's our goal again this year, is to not only talk about new stuff but also deliver on those promises and give people the kind of games that they really want and expect from Bethesda."https://www.gamereactor.eu/news/646303/Bethesda+showing+healthy+number+of+new+projects+at+E3/ How to hack the Switch has now been made public and it’s due to a hardware shortcoming. Nintendo cannot fix this with a patch and will need to release the T214 chipset that was found in firmware update 5.0.
