198X - Launch Trailer - Nintendo Switch

I’m speechless. What an amazing trailer, leaving me emotional in the end, not only with excitement but also nostalgia and awe. First of all the concept of retro games as fragmented facets within the game is genius, and I feel confident they’ll capture the feel of every genre of its age that it’s trying to integrate. The coming of age story is also something that grabbed me from the start and is an enticing way to tie all the different game types together. And can we talk about the art style? (The fighting part looks better than streets of rage 4 imo), and the soundtrack of this trailer? I got serious Stranger Things vibes from it all. Excited!

Now this is how you build up hype with a launch trailer, I wasn’t even around in the 80’s so no nostalgia for me but this looks fantastic!

I love it when games use multiple genres for gameplay and storytelling. (When did this get 2000+ likes??)
