There’s still a lot of unanswered questions about the Nintendo Switch and its game lineup. But folks in the gaming community are still hard at work to get whatever information they can. This includes Emily Rogers, who recently took to Twitter to talk about 3D Mario replacing Zelda as a day one launch title for the console. We’ve included the tweets down below, so feel free to check them out.

Oh boy another nintendo switch rumor! Haven’t seen one of those before!
She can be just as wrong as anyone else, but she’s been spot on with her rumors so far. I would say just take what we’ve seen in the Switch trailer into consideration when she says these things, because that Mario game did look well developed for a game that was supposedly just started. Many new game demos usually showcase one playable area, but that 3D Mario title seemed more fleshed out than that.
The one area they showed in the Switch trailer seemed more fleshed out than one area? Why? They showed exactly one area.
Who exactly is Emily?
A credible insider.
Who is that bitch? Crucify HER !!
Yeah I wouldn’t be either, even though the switch trailer was delayed because they didn’t have mario game running correctly yet.
I predict better than this Emily girl. My track record is flawless and hers is not!
If you’re going to do something, do it right or not at all.
So where is Mother 3….
It doesn’t help she says things like this after so many others have said it. Mario Switch is the only known title to be a proper launch title, and BotW was changed to just 2017 instead of March 2017. It doesn’t take a detective to reach this conclusion.
They havent announced any launch titles. No one nos for sure what the launch line up is. Nothing is confirmed until the January presentation.
TF2 took 9 years to make, considered one of the best games of all time.
ET, one of the worst games of all time, took 5 months to make.
Just an observation.
The best game of all time reused assets from its predecessor and took less than a year to be made, that means nothing.
Majora’s mask?
As I said…
Just an observation…
Calling Majora’s Mask the best game of all time is maybe pushing it a little. It’s a good game, but Ocarina of Time is certainly closer to being the best than Majora’s Mask is.
My personal favorite is Link’s Awakening. They have all been consistently good.
Well it WAS.
Then they killed it when they copied Overwatch’s matchmaking structure. There was nothing wrong with it until then.
Not to mention if you want to play “competitively” you have to buy it, as if we hadn’t sunk enough money into it for hats and MVM tickets, or if you had it before June 2011, the game itself before it went Free-2-Play.
TF2 is a shell of its former self.
Pikmin 4! pikmin 4 those litte critters such a dore.
I’m also hoping for Pikmin 4. Ever since Miyamoto stated that it was nearly finished months ago. And I doubt that he was referring to the 3DS Pikmin game.
Right.
Metroid Bane:
I hope Zelda is also relased the same day as mario or before mario. That game has being in development 6 years right?
||Pointless argument…||
Metroid Bane:
Pointless? I don’t understand what you mean.
||They will both be released within launch window, which makes it pointless going by timeframe…||
Metroid Bane:
Yes you’re right, I also hope that. Zelda and Metroid are my favorite games and Breath of the Wild will be the longest Zelda game of all.
||There is no hope, only the truth…||
||You should change your name to stop typing it every comment, just a suggestion…||
To tell you the truth I have bein having problems with that since I put my user name on Gravatar and I am a bit puzzled on how to change that.
I really want to change it to Metroid Bane but I am terrible with things like this. Perhaps in time I will get use on how to change these things. I am also thinking on talking to a cousing who is used to do these things to teach me how to change my name.
lord sasori hopes your sacred weapons sell terrible
sasori should play soccer
Metroid Bane:
Perhaps you mean that Zelda would relase after mario?
Why couldn’t they both be at launch? Unless it’s some stupid shit like saving one for the holidays.
she has been bang on most of the time and commonsense MARIO IS NEAR FINISHED
NINTENDO HAVE BEEN MAKING SWITCH GAMES FOR LIKE 2 TO 4 YEARS NOW was no one listening and watching what iwata was saying a yr before he passed away
nintendo has merged its mobile handheld and console dev teams they have built a 1.3 billion development building
HAVE A WILD STAB IN THE DARK AT WHATS GOING ON THERE MAYBE THERE MAKING GAMES CONSIDERING THATS ITS PURPOSE
Pikmin 4 pimkn 4 needs to be launched we cant ignore.
am coulnd’t care less about mario. am want a CoD as a launch title.
and you call yourself a nintendo fan
time cod review
5 outa 10 garbage gaming
………….
HAHAHA no
Then why are you here?
is it a good strategy to have 2 big titles at launch? humm isnt better to save one for the next holiday or something? Well, Im just saying, I’m not an expert, far from this.
If were I, I would buy Zelda first and Mario just after I have finished BTW, but I dont know the rest of the world, so..
lol forget it, she saids that mario woukd replace Zelda at launch instead of selling the 2 games. but wow, i dont know if it could occur.
all I’m saying is this…it better be online multipayer…my family hates to get out of the house.
||Obviously it will have, do you really think these third class empires would even admit support for the Switch otherwise?…||
I can say the same about hating to get out my house. Altough I don’t care much about multiplayer I hope they could include it for people who likes.
I couldn’t care less about Call of Dooty… New Mario all day….
Nintendo would be tripping if Louie and Olimar wasnt coming out flipping.
To be sure the Switch arrives and we can rest. OLIMAR is the one thats best
With Nintendo, anything is quite possible honestly.
If they do end up doing this, not only will it be a silly choice, but they will also be restarting the cycle they did during the Wii U. There is also a possibility this could cause more harm than good considering the Wii U version of the game might net itself a delay in the process (If Nintendo is planning a simultaneous launch that is).
BoTW is a title everyone has been looking forward to since day 1, and I will be severely disappointed if they decide to do a last minute delay after getting everyone roused with the amount of announcements and footage they’ve been revealing.
Peach is rather a neaty while Brittney from Pikmin is rather greedy
Not unless Nintendo made the switch to remove Pikmin 4 off Wii U on to the Switch for Grunty the witch. NOwnif they did that I would have no issue or not fit. THats how you get the Switch to benfit.
There’s no way the 3D Mario was in development longer than Breath of the Wild. BOTW probably started development after Skyward Sword came out (early 2012). The 3D Mario, on the other hand, probably started development after Super Mario 3D World came out (early 2014). I’d actually be surprised if the new 3D Mario came out first. Also, I remember reading an article where Miyamoto said “maybe we’ll see something next E3.” Maybe we’ll see a trailer in the January switch presentation with a late Spring/Summer release.
Ok so a game that is going to come out in march when the switch launches might not launch with the switch but a Mario will instead? where is the logic in this?
If that was Mario Galaxy 3 I would be surprised.
I’m getting sick of Emily denying Nintendo’s words! She did it first with the Switch by backing rumors that directly contradicted Iwata’s words about their future NOT consisting of a hybrid, and now she’s doing it by denying Miyamoto’s words that the 3D Mario is NOT READY FOR LAUNCH and that they MAY talk about it at E3 2017. She was just lucky that Nintendo overturned their original words with the outcome of the Switch, but she needs to stop taking sources as more credible than Nintendo until the latter proves to be consistently untrustworthy like they were with the Switch’s form factor.
no, noooo, nooooo
I wouldn’t be surprised if Emily Rogers ended up posting at least a couple thousand more Switch rumours before it’s release….That’s all I’ll say on that.
Bitch! Mario being almost finish doesn’t mean zelda wont be a launch title.
Well hell I would hope so…
STOP

Slightly off topic, but if the WiiU version of Zelda isn’t out by the end of March, I’m going to cry. Nintendo has promised a thousand times that the game will in fact come out on WiiU and won’t be pushed entirely over to Switch… but until that game is out, I don’t feel safe.
https://youtu.be/BvnMEdmg6bU
She’s a credible source but she’s jumping to conclusions while trying to be bold. The Mario game at launch will be the enhanced Mario Kart 8 and Zelda will be a launch game also, Mario will be the Holiday killer app. Nintendo needs a strong start and something to keep the momentum and nothing is best suited to keep the hype up than Mario.
You can’t, or at least shouldn’t, say something like that so matter of factly, when in reality, we are only privy to the same 3 plus minutes of Switch tease that everyone else saw.
We don’t even know if that is accurate calling the Mario Kart we saw “enhanced Mario Kart 8” when there is no precedent for such an offering. I saw a different game than Mario Kart 8, similar sure… but the last 4 mario kart games have been similar
I enjoy sharing these blurbs as much as the next guy, but seriously. A site like My Nintendo News is not the place for this. Let those having a conversation on Twitter enjoy it under less publicized circumstances.
Started with Emily Rogers immediately makes this story click bait. GGs MNN ! As for what Miss Rogers actually says ? Hogwash I tell you! If she really has an insider at Nintendo I’m surprised they still have a job with all these supposed leaks…
Kinda shocking that I even have to point this out, but she didn’t say “Zelda won’t be a launch title”, she said “I wouldn’t be surprised […]”. How do people not see the difference?
She said “instead of” which is probably what got people going… I don’t see why there can’t be both.
wonderful…
“I’m basing this off things I’ve been hearing for 3-4 months now” … she could have said this a month ago then… why say it now?
smh.. i’m tired of all these rumors. MNN should just create a diff area for rumors and update it without flashing all the rumors on the front page.
It’s talking again! MAKE IT STOP!!! D:
