Which Games Will Make You Buy NX?
- Thread starter Sidewalk
- Start date
I never got the Wii U because I wasn't really that into Nintendo games back when it was released, and the advertisements at first glance made me think it was only an extra accessory to the Wii so I didn't bother getting it because none of the launch games interested me.
So uh yeah, i will definitely be getting the NX, regardless of what games release alongside it so I'm not left out again. If the Smash for NX rumors are true, I'd be pretty excited even though Smash for 3DS/Wii U just came out but whatever, I really like the franchise even though a quite few people dislike it and say it is repetitive. An Animal Crossing release would be pretty good as well, we're almost due for another one, or at least an announcement/reveal,
I'd also like AMIIBO to be compatible with a lot of games because honestly I have spent way too much on them and I don't even have a Wii U. i think fans would be pretty upset if the NX didn't have any form of NFC to read amiibo so Nintendo better not stuff up. If amiibo does become compatible I bet they're gonna release new lines of amiibo alongside launch just to harvest more money out of it.
I'm not really keeping up with the news and leaks and etc but I hope there's going to be backwards compatibility so I can catch up on some Wii U games, but at the moment I am sort of doubting it because the NX is said to not be a successor of the Wii U or 3DS
so to conclude my pointless off-topicness, I'd like Smash, Animal Crossing and a Mario Title probably(GIVE ME GALAXY 3)

Well, firstly, there'll have to be a good amount of exclusive games on it till I consider buying one because:
- The ship has sailed for third party support being a factor in whether I buy one since I've got a PS4 to cover that base now.
- The inevitable backwards compatibility also wouldn't make a difference since I have a Wii U. It won't give me access to anything I haven't already had the chance to play in the same way the Wii U did for me with Wii games (though it would be a convenient feature if I owned an NX, just not a selling point)
In terms of actual games that would make me buy it (assuming, if anything, it's a successor to the Wii U)
Smash Bros, Mario Kart and Zelda are also games that I would like, but I don't expect any of those games to get a new release on the NX within the first year, maybe Q4 of its second year at the earliest. They'll get a port of the latest Wii U title at most, which I'm not interested in.
"It's not a successor" is pretty much a lie, or I guess more accurately, a safety net so that if the NX fails horribly they can just sweep it under the rug and pretend it never happened.
They've used the same line before so that people don't feel sad that their consoles are becoming redundant. The DS 'wasn't a successor' to the Gameboy and the Wii 'wasn't a successor' to the Gamecube...Yet they dropped both the GB and the GC like hot **** once the DS and Wii proved to be a success.
If it plays games, it's a successor to the Wii U and/or the 3DS.

A Metroid game would grease my wallet. I would prefer a 2D (or more likely, 2.5D) classic style 'Metroidvania' game, though another first person Prime style game would be okay as well, especially since it would assumingly be using a proper controller scheme rather than Wiimotes or Gamecube controls (which was total **** for FPS's, IMO).
Or even an 'Other M' type game in terms of gameplay. I don't care what people say about the story, but the gameplay in that was solid.
I've only ever been a 'casual' fan (I guess?) of F-Zero, but it's been so long since a new one came out that it would probably be a big sell for me since I'm itching for that sort of gameplay. There's that thing on the E-shop (forgot its name) but it's just not the same.
A good 3D Mario game intended for single player. Not a sequel to Galaxy, something new with a new gimmick.
3D World wasn't awful, it was just a let down from what I expect in a 3D Mario game.
Monster Hunter. Just put a new Monster Hunter on a home console and I'm already 50% sold. It's just not a game I enjoy playing on handhelds as much as on a full screen, as well as Monster Hunter being a game that would look amazing if it was made with current home consoles in mind.
If the NX is a 'hybrid', there's no reason why this couldn't happen.
Donkey Kong Country. I just like the games. If I had to say anything about it, I just want Tiny Kong to be playable and to have her DK64 shrinking powers.
Some sort of Disney Infinity/Skylanders type Amiibo focused game that stops my Amiibo from being utterly ****ing useless hunks of plastic that mostly just unlock alternate skins and rupees.

Meh
I'm hoping for a new main series Legend of Zelda game that plays like Ocarina of Time or Majora's Mask.
Also, a sequel to Kid Icarus Uprising would be nice.

if it was you I'd never want to leave...
pokemon and animal crossing will be the two that make me buy the NX if they're gonna be released on the system.
It's always, always, a Mario Kart that gets me hooked. I wasn't ineterested in the 3DS until they revealed MK7, same with Wii U and MK8. So, a Mario Kart will make me buy one.
But there's also the factor that I am a crazy Pok?mon fan. A PokePark or Pokk?n Tournament will make me want the NX badly.
An Animal Crossing game would be awesome, yes, but I don't think it would make me want to buy one. Animal Crossing always seems to work better on handheld systems.
So yeah, Mario Kart NX please!

- Mario Kart
- F-Zero
- Super Monkey Ball
- Animal Crossing
If a new game was made for any of these and it was rated well I'd definitely consider buying it.

At this point, I don't believe that an existing franchise being released on NX would get me to purchase the hardware, unless it really does something very interesting within said franchise that I haven't seen before, even if they're great. Unlike many other users there, I don't care if a particular franchise make its way to NX or not; the games that come out should be considered as must-have for its great gameplay that either uses the system's capabilities in an interesting way or provide an intriguing idea that hasn't been explored before.
So yeah, I'm not exactly in a hurry on getting a new console from the future generation, and even less so when accounting that my video game backlog has a lot of unbeaten games that are worth finishing for the time being.

I don't know. Probably just Animal Crossing.
But if "Octoon" were to come out ( Splatoon with Octolings ) I might get that too.
Also, Mario platformers, especially 2D ones.

"Update: The Nintendo NX will have tons of third-party support, if a recent tweet from a CEO of a Japan-based consultancy firm is to be believed. Dr. Serkan Toto tweeted, "Bandai Namco is currently developing several NX titles. Smash Bros is planned to be a launch title. I am not sure about the date - yet." We'll reach out to Nintendo and Bandai Namco to confirm the legitimacy of the rumor."

Well if these rumors is true, its nice to see more 3rd parties support for the system.
Mario, Zelda, I believe will definitely be one of the launch games.
And given the numbers of copies AC have sold, i believe the launch wouldn't be too far off.
Given that the creator is looking at another system for the new AC, im positive they will be release on NX.
And since this is most likely a hybrid system, no issue with playing either on console or handheld.
Winwin!!!

Pretty much the only games I'm interested in enough that I'd justify buying a new console for are Animal Crossing and Monster Hunter. Possibly, post-launch, a Pokemon game - but that'd depend on what the reviews said about the post-game as I was rather disappointed in X/Y and OR/AS, although OR/AS was a little better than X/Y. I've already got a pretty solid PC, so I doubt I'll have any need of playing third-party games, that is unless they're exclusives, and from what I've observed, recent third-party Nintendo games (with the exception of Monster Hunter) aren't usually all that good.
