Agreed 100%. I imagine they will have hardware and demos available early next year when it gets announced (possibly at the Super Nintendo World) which could be leading to confusion.

Sorry, must have had a typo, announced April 2011, released Nov 2012

I seriously doubt Nintendo would get into a situation where they are less than a year away from a new console without even soft announcing it’s coming in an investor meeting or anything. They announced Switch (as the upcoming NX) in April 2016 for a March 2017 launch. WiiU was announced April 2011, for a November~Dec 2012 launch. The Wii was hyped 2 years in a row in 2004 and 2005 before releasing in 2006, and the Gamecube was announced August 2000 before a Sept~Nov 2001 release. Nintendo may very well be launching new hardware early next year, but history points more to a Switch Pro unless they announce VERY soon and the release window is more late summer~fall 2024.

So how many hours did you spend in there? There’s just so much interesting stuff and the mini restaurants inside are solid too! I think the first trip my wife and I made in there went for like 2~3 hours and we left with a wild assortment of stuff you just won’t find anywhere else.

It’s sad that there’s absolutely nothing at the Cincinnati Zoo dedicated to or even slightly hinting at Harambe ever even existing. The closest thing to a memorial is a statue of him outside of Jungle Jim’s all the way over in Eastgate.

I think you would fall into the same trap as the Wii U by staying too close to the Switch name. It’s muddled by the fact that PlayStation and Xbox brands have become so tightly associated with their parent company’s gaming marketing, but Nintendo’s most recognizable brand is and always has been “Nintendo”.
