What? Is happening? Is finally happening? Oh, we almost have to make a piece of it! OV1 plays? Yes, right! Alright, one play. What is going on, everybody? How are y'all doing? Before we get started with this video, give it a... What? What? What? What? Thumbs up! That's right! Give the video a big... BIP! Alright! We have some dope Nintendo Switch news items for this video. There has been so much news since January 1st that I still didn't even get to talk on this one. And this is big! Mark your calendars. January 6th! We more than likely could be getting update 10 from what update 10 for the Nintendo Switch now! On January 6th, there's going to be this is coming courtesy of Nintendo's official website. So this is happening. That, an update to the Switch's firmware will take place for an entire hour from 1030 to 1130 PM CT Central Time, in which all network services will be unavailable. Nintendo is going to go into the dark for an entire hour. This means you're not going to be able to use the eShop or play any games that will require any online function during this time. So, because of this announcement, many sources are speculating and anticipating the big software update number 10.0. Because we've got a 9.0.0.0.0.0.0.1. It's a point 2 small, where it's just stability issues. But whenever there is a whole number, big things happen. And especially if this is software update number 10, Nintendo, go big or go home! No! Something as simple as themes. The head of platinum games, we're going to talk about platinum games in a second. But the head of platinum games, he's already said that he just said it about this last week that Nintendo's home menu is garbage. I can't use the same word he used, but garbage. Simple as simple as themes. The Wii U had a better home menu, bro. Even the eShop had music. And so, I want what do I want for this big update? Femes! That's not at the top of this. Oh, y'all already know what's at the top of my list. I'll beat you down to where it's one more time! Achievements. I'm beating this dead horse. Come on, Nintendo! Wake up horse! Wake up horse! We want achievements. Probably so lit. So, bro, for software update 10, Nintendo got to go big, man. Achievements. Party invites. Online chat. Simple stuff! That's been in consoles for over a decade now. It's 2020. It's a 2020 new decade boom Nintendo. Go big for this update. And so, firmware update will be happening on January 6th. Still in the air whether or not it's going to be update 10.0, but all signs are pointing to update 10.0. Nintendo needs to make it happen. I'm just saying, bro. Alright, next news item! Animal Crossing. Animal Crossing. If you are looking to get the physical copy of the game you're in luck today, Amazon has opened up pre-orders for Animal Crossing New Horizons. I get my games digitally, so I'm going to get it digitally. I can share between my switches with my kids. I have four switches. I can share with my kids. I feel the family plan. We figured out how to do it. And so, if you're looking to get the game physically though, you can pre-order through Amazon.com. This is not a game that you have to take real serious. Catch some fish. Dig some holes. Plant a tree. Eat some apples. And so, I'm going to spend like 10 minutes a day doing my usual Animal Crossing thing. Then hop off and play something else. And so, Animal Crossing. It drops on March 20th. Is it March 20th? I believe it's when the game comes out. Don't quote me on that. Yeah, go look it up. Yeah, click on this video for news information. All right. No, I think it's March. It's time to watch. It is covered out. It is, bro. All right. Next news item. Bro, this is pretty big. Mario Kart Tour is killing it. Killing it right now for Nintendo. First, Apple has reported that it has been their most downloaded game for all of 2019. The game launched in September. So other apps had 9 month head start. And just September, October, November, December, just for 4 months, it was the app stores most downloaded app for the entire year. But it's free. So what if it's downloaded the most? Nintendo is all about that money. Well, good thing to know. It's also killing it in revenue. In the first 98 days, Mario Kart Tour has generated 75 million, over 75 million million in revenue. That's crazy. A lot of dudes work on planning about the subscription service. Oh, why is Nintendo going this route? But it seems to be working for them. I really haven't touched it too much. I've never been more a mobile gamer. I like the sticks. And so. But it's still doing good for Nintendo. And so Nintendo's two pillars, this generation, seems to have been the switch and mobile. In the past, it was their handheld and home consoles. But now since that, the switch is a hybrid of both. They still got the switch and they still got the mobile arena for their games. So Nintendo is killing it. I still think Nintendo needs to come out with some kind of Nintendo plus, like Disney plus, where it's gaming, where all the mobile and switch games all in one place. Just my thoughts. I think Nintendo should do it. And I think they'll kill it. All right. The last news item for this video. Pretty big one. The president of platinum games. He's going on record to say that big news from the studios is coming soon. He didn't go into detail. He just said big news is coming. This is coming from the Japanese publication inside games. And there's rumors about Nintendo direct right around the corner. Possibly this big news could be tied into it. We know Band-Edit 3 should be dropped. This 2020 should be the year Band-Edit releases. I think Band-Edit would be a perfect October early fall release for the switch. The time will tell, but big news is coming from platinum games. All right, dudes.
