I get you, man.. I get you. Launch would be awesome, but at the same time it'd be a waste because I'd just be playing Breath of the Wild. Plus, I reckon it will get a lot of love from Zelda fans because of Hyrule Warriors.
True, i wonder if the utterly horrific launch is because Nintendo knows BotW will sell and keep people busy. Though i know about 5 people who have decided not to get a Switch at launch because they dont like Zelda (or bomberman).
Im glad FEW is happening at all because as much as i love Zelda, when i saw HW i did think FE would have been a better fit.
I wonder if Nintendo Warriors games will continue. Nintendo and Tecmo sound tight atm, i reckon theyre almost (if not completely) finished with FEW for them to ask about Star Fox Warriors... though at the same time i dont actually know when they floated the SFW idea. It does make it sound like they want to continue working with Nintendo.
