PAX West 2017 is just a few weeks away and Nintendo is set to have a presence at the event. According to PAX West’s schedule, which was revealed recently, Nintendo will be holding a “special” panel. The panel will be held in the Hydra Theater on September 2nd between 10:00 and 11:00 AM, and what will be shown at the panel is unknown. As of right now, the panel is only described as “A special Nintendo panel at PAX West 2017!”

This leaves a lot to be speculated about what could be featured at the panel, since Nintendo has quite a few titles lined up for the rest of this year, including Metroid: Samus Returns, Super Mario Odyssey, and more.

Switch acquired. Time to play some Blaster Master and Sonic Mania. Probably will pick up Rabbids next week.

Platinum needs to get off their asses and announce whatever they are working on.

So, it looks like some games are going to require extra memory. Not that surprising, as I would not expect a lot of the third parties to put the work in to fit as much as possible on the cards. Or they are cheap.

On the plus side, they will be clearly labeled.

[FONT=&quot]Nicalis teases five new Switch ports, including Code of Princess and VVVVVV [Update][/FONT]
Published 18 hours ago. 24 comments.

Can you figure out the remaining titles?






Nicalis has posted an image on Twitter teasing five new ports in development for Switch.


The five ports are blurry compared to the announced titles in the image. We have been able to determine the last three to be VVVVVV by Terry Cavanagh, Code of Princess by Studio Saizensen, and 1001 Spikes by Nicalis. (Though, Nicalis announced 1001 Spikes for Switch a while ago, so we are not sure why it is blurred.) The first two new titles remain to be determined.
Thanks, NeoGAF.




Update: The game in the top right appears to be Knight Terrors by FreakZone Games.

LA Noire is an odd game to be ported over, but variety is the spice of life. I think a lot of people, myself included, would have rather seen Rockstar port over GTA5.

 

[Lily Adler]

Litmus test, perhaps? Use LA Noire to see the demand for a Rockstar game and then port GTA?

 

[Matt Mortem]

The Switch will have an interesting library in a few years. A lot of odd choices coming it's way.

 

[Sithborg]

I'm just waiting for whatever Platinum is working on.

[Matt Mortem]

Used some store credit and snagged a copy of Mario + Rabbids for dirt cheap. I'm surprised by this game. It's got a lot more charm and much deeper gameplay then I thought it would. I'm enjoying it.

 

[Sithborg]

Excellent. The game is a huge surprise, and is wonderful.

Loved the cinematic after you beat the World 1 boss...

 

[Matt Mortem]

The game shouldn't work as well as it does. It's an idiotic pairing, but the core gameplay is so solid that it ends up being fun.
