Release Date / Game Reveal Timing Speculation and Discussion

[WeiMoote]

True that. For BotW, they were restricted to the Great Plateau, for Mario Odyssey, they only had a few kingdoms, and for Smash Ultimate at E3, there was only a slight skeleton crew of fighters + Ridley to choose from.

I'm really doubting that September could be the release date, but obviously it would be awesome if it was. My guess is December for now.

Don't be sorry! We're all fans here, celebrating and counting down the days together. Do your thing, chicken wing.

I like seeing the countdown whenever I visit this thread. Starting to really get excited!

I'M LOSING IT!!!
Tell me something positive and help me wait.​

 

[peppy villager]

It's going to be really something on this forum with the number of people who joined here at age 13-15 when they got New Leaf, and now they'll be returning as grown-up adults.

this makes me feel old. I was 17 and in high school when I joined the forum, and 16 when I got NL, and now I'm almost 22 and working and in college. >.>

 

[Fey]

This will be my first time participating in the hype here, and I'm already looking forward to seeing the madness unfold in all its glory! ^ｪ^

I don't have a strong guess for the release month, but expect it to be after, or at least toward the end of, September
(which is a shame because I'd love to start when the grass is still green. Oh well)

8 more days, ya'll!

The timer on this subforum was a combination of mine and Justin's idea thank you.

Now prepare for disappointment as AC is delayed until 2025.

 

[acornavenue]

Do you guys think they will make a switch book guide for the game?

Do you guys think they will make a switch book guide for the game?

Yes and it will most likely be made available on launch.

 

[drowningfairies]

I've been away from the forum for a few weeks, but the hype is pulling me back in. We are so close to finding out some info!!

 

[Justin]

Do you guys think they will make a switch book guide for the game?

I actually don't think there will be one. The main (or only?) remaining company that produced most video game guide books and made the one for New Leaf, Prima Games, is actually shutting down production for physical guide books. They might have a digital one available but I'm assuming you mean a physical one.

At least not in English that is. I'm sure there will be a few Japanese ones made by other companies in Japan.

 

[Ossiran]

I'd love a detailed guidebook for nostalgia's sake, but I highly doubt we'll get anything other than maybe a small digital "Beginner's Guide".

 

[Paperboy012305]

Guide Books aren't very accurate at most times. Though, its pretty much more efficient to look up info of games on the internet now. After all, its free.

Also, I noticed the Nintendo Direct banner. Now, if AC Switch is the main focus i'd love that. But if it wasn't even mentioned at E3 at all, then we can all agree its been delayed.

So yes, E3 seems to be the last resort for showing any AC Switch news before we get confirmation it got delayed if not shown at E3.

I've been following the forum even though I haven't been posting anything just to check this thread. I do have a good feeling about this time, so I'm looking forward to coming back and posting if there are any announcements.
