Nintendo Direct Thread (Do NOT post here unless one is announced)

Will try to stream this
 
Ya know, it's not normally like Nintendo to announce a Direct a couple days ahead of time... I don't know if I should be concerned about this or not •_•
 
Even though Ocarina of Time is my favorite Zelda game, I felt that the Zelda Direct was kind of weak to be honest. I felt there were a couple cool features for the Ocarina of Time remake, as I liked the new graphics, better camera options and that you can play the ocarina with your mic now. But like, it just feels lackluster to me that the big thing this direct is announcing is just more information on a remake of a video game that was already remade before for the 3DS.

Lol, I heard someone say in the live comments "MINISH CAP?" and for a second I thought Minish Cap was going to be announced to remade too. And that would actually have made me feel more interested because while the game is smaller scale than Ocarina, at least with that game, it would have been the first time it was remade. But nope, that person just misinterpreted something

Even if there was a little bit more information on the Zelda movie, or there was some other Zelda game announced even that was a smaller game, like Echoes of Wisdom, I could have felt a bit more lenient but this was definitely one of the Directs I cared for less. I'd give this a 4/10, at best.

I mean, they announced a ton of stuff but skipped over all the silly collab stuff that normally makes up the bulk of these things, which really concentrates the viewers opinion on the direct to the four big deals of the orchestra, the movie, the game, and the special edition Nintendo Switch 2. Other directs can paper over their flaws with quantity, but this one chose not to. While some people would like skipping to the meat of the direct, I came here to watch advertisements and am unlikely to mind if Nintendo hypes up more advertisements. Of course, I'm not a Zelda fan, which means my opinion isn't all that useful but...
  • The orchestra medley goes on for a while. I think its too long for what's supposed to be a bunch of announcements.
  • The movie is one of the headlining features of this direct, and what did we learn about it? Title and release date. And its not even a title that allows for interesting speculation since its just "The Legend of Zelda". At least show us a landscape, or a character.
  • The Ocarina of Time segment is what we were here for, and it goes well enough, but we're hyping up table stakes for 3D adventure games like camera control and jumping. I wish they were focusing on playing the ocarina with the microphone.
    • That might have been a good point to introduce the Playable Ocarina and Electronic Ocarina merchandise, in a way that would be memorable. (Though showing off a normal instrument like a recorder or clarinet before the merchandise would make it look less shilly.)

Minish Cap on Switch 2 sounds like it would be really cool since extra processing power would let it play up the aspects of being shrunken in ways older systems could not. Imagine the heightened level of detail in one of the miniturized dungeons...
