Seeing how well this port is selling, I doubt they will.
If at all, the only games that they should really port and everyone would be happy about, would probably be Wind Waker HD and Twilight Princess HD.
I do feel they are coming, so that they can fill in the gaps in between Breath of the Wild and the next major original Zelda for the Switch or whatever other console comes after.

Also, I do have the feeling they are planning on porting over Super Mario Maker to the Switch, just so they can get a grab-on by the balls to everyone that wants to play it, but also it is a way for Nintendo to make more income with the Online service.
Being the greedy fuckers they are, I can see them doing that for sure.

Just give us the HD Zeldas already, and perhaps Pikmin 3, and everyone will be happy with those ports.

"New?"

Really?

Another port?

Seriously?

wiewiec · Jan 23, 2019

Damn shitty... It only like DLC to game but full price...

RedoLane · Jan 23, 2019

This "deluxe" already fails on many factors:
-Same game, same levels, same story, but one new playable character
-Same character gets exclusive powerup, while the others remain the same.
-Said powerup flooded the internet with toxic. blame all the artists. (this is more personal though)
-Boost Mode is removed due to incompatibility with Switch despite the fact that the Switch by itself is like a tablet, so it has touch screen.
-Loading time is the same as the Wii U version, even though the Switch's hardware is stronger.

All that, with the fact it's a full price game, which is utter greed in physical form.
Don't buy it unless you haven't played the Wii U version at all.

Also do not buy IT because fucken Nintendo likes money same as release same game again. It will be not worth for even collecting purposes...

removed features, no new levels, full price? definitely not the quality porting nintendo usually does. new character and small tweaks aren't enough to redeem it.

I'll pass until they reduce it to 20 bucks.

the_randomizer · Jan 23, 2019

People are actually defending the 60 dollar price tag?

Kioku · Jan 23, 2019

The ports aren't going to stop. You all incessantly whining are wasting your time.

NativeCode · Jan 24, 2019

Such a great game.

By the way, Jeremy Parish ranked New Super Mario Bros U as the greatest Mario game ever made.

If this game were being released ("remastered") on a PS4 or XBox One, they wouldn't complain about it. Because most games on those consoles are remastered editions from PS2/PS3 and XBox/XBox 360 ones. But hey!, they come with supercalifragilistic-4K graphics!. So they're "new" games at full price! Doh!

As I always say, the best games have to be fun, not HD.

Nintendo making the same games and selling them with ridiculous price tags so much they're starting to look like Apple.

Sonic Angel Knight · Jan 24, 2019

This game currently have more digital downloads than Smash ultimate according to the eshop

If you mean the charts page, that just means more in a set period of time, not lifetime sales. It makes sense that a game would overtake Smash in its launch week.

mario maker?

Nope. The WiiU was an abysmal failure. It's time to accept that and move on. Nintendo is capitalizing on the success of the Switch. Backporting a missed library is smart even if you disagree.

I have two switches, my daughter has the wiiu gamepad in her hand Playing SM3DW as I type this. I'd say it was a success. The switch does not replace the wiiu on two levels. One being for games that make use of the gamepad such as scribblenauts, rayman legends murphy levels and super mario maker to name the most obvious. Additionally on this version of NSMBU you loose the ability to have the 5th player (daddy) create platforms using the gamepad. Since we're a family of 5 this was used on every NSMBU session.

Jimbo_Slim · Jan 25, 2019

One thing I don't understand about this version is why did they remove Blue Toad? He was in the NES SMB2 and in 3D World and overall, blue is a more popular color. So why? (Unless he's still in the game in which this complaint is useless)

Well yeah the target audience are the majority of switch owners who never had a Wii U

Dust2dust · Jan 25, 2019

I always find it funny when I read comments like "I'm not buying it, it's just rehashed from Wii U" or "Not buying it until it drops to a very low price", when talking about a game probably hitting scores like 90+ in reviews around the web. Knowing full well you guys probably post that, then turn around and launch the game on your CFW. :rolleyes:
