“We’re excited about Switch we’re supporting Switch with NBA 2K18, we’ve said we’re supporting it long form.
“We’ve said over and over again that when Nintendo comes to market you never want to count them out.
“So we’re excited about it, but the only thing we can announce is the basketball title.”

This is great! I’d like to see a WWE title on the switch.

Sure, Mr. Zelnick. I’m looking forward to play Red Dead, WWE, GTA, MLB, BioShock, X-COM, Borderlands, Mafia, Carnival Games, Max Payne, Midnight, Civilization on the Switch.

I know Nintendo is pretty stiff towards 3rd parties, but… 3rd parties should not be allowed to tell us this kind of lies.

There’s a weird rumor I read that L.A. Noire is getting a remaster for PS4, XBO, and Switch.

That would be awesome.
I strangely remember that the Xbox 360 version of the game had 3 DVDs.

I’ve never heard of “long form” so I have no idea what that even means.
If everyone over there was so excited they would drop some bombs to prepare people and build hype. I don’t buy it.

Long form means that they release a new Basketball game every year…

Is that a joke or what it actually means. XD

It’s a joke. At least it was one, until I had to explain it.

I’ve literally never heard of that expression before, ever. From anyone, about anything.
Maybe it’s a northern thing… Long term on the other hand, hear that all the time.

Well this game doesn’t interest me at all, if I want to play basketball I’ll go outside and actually play basketball! Let’s cut the crap, T2 could have at lease released RDR on the Switch to get fans interested in their releases, but no they chose this smfh:/

That’s definitely good, Take Two is one of the best third parties to have on board, even it their games are less console oriented. It still give variety to the platform, it’s a good news. There is more than NBA.

If WWE 2k18 is coming to Switch, they can’t announce it right now even if they wanted to. It’s usually WWE that announces these games around Summerslam which is usually an August PPV, so yeah. It’s not up to them. Least not fully, anyway. As for the other games like Grand Theft Auto, beats the hell out of me! xD
