Overall, direct was kinda disappointing.
yeah I feel the same way, aside from new fire emblem and splatoon nothing really excited me

actually I take that back, Xenoblade Chronicles X was great if only for the endless scenery porn

Rosalina in MP10 was obvious (and when shibata said other modes I went OH SHIT OLD MP STYLE but no it was those extra minigames hardly anyone plays goddammit)

Good thing I didn't expect anything, I didn't get much.

I would have been a little happier if I didn't miss the Hyrule warriors part but I found about that afterwards. Splatoon was nice, I like the customization.

Also Etrian Mystery Dungeon, doesn't look spectacular but it looks enjoyable.

welp if there isn't going to be a regular new 3ds in america i probably won't get it

let's just hope they announce the regular version later

NOA acting like I have $200 to buy a N3DS for literally everything on the handheld side.

And I quite literally just bought Metroid Prime Trilogy like a month ago this would've been nice to know. I won't buy it again because even though it's metroid, it's just a port with nothing new. Maybe you'll be able to play with the gamepad but I wouldn't use it anyway.
 
Re: Nintendo Direct Thread - NEW DIRECT - 2015.1.14 (6AM PST/9AM EST)

So yeah... aside from the Fire Emblem teaser there's not too much to get out of this, just release dates for games we already know about primarily.

I don't care much overall for the Wii rereleases. I'll buy Metroid Prime Trilogy because it's rare but that's it, I'll stick with retail copies for everything else (the GamePad won't even work as a controller because it used the Wiimote+Nunchuk).

But seriously why are they not in HD Nintendo? No really, back in 2012 it was said that in order for a Wii game to be upscaled to HD they'd practically have to rerelease it completely. Well, that's what they're doing now.

Okay just had to get that out of my system- *checks eShop* oh wow, Galaxy 2's only $13, and 1.6GB. *hugs retail copy* No, it's not HD.
 
Re: Nintendo Direct Thread - NEW DIRECT - 2015.1.14 (6AM PST/9AM EST)

does anyone have a list of stuff that happened
 
Re: Nintendo Direct Thread - NEW DIRECT - 2015.1.14 (6AM PST/9AM EST)

Okay, so from where I read Metroid Prime Trilogy will only be 10 dollars, so I guess i'll try it.
 
Re: Nintendo Direct Thread - NEW DIRECT - 2015.1.14 (6AM PST/9AM EST)

Fire Emblem, Xenoblade, Splatoon...

Alright maybe a stupid question but I've seen the abbreviation "IP" more often but I still don't know it's exact meaning, so what does it stand for?

Intullectual Property.
 
Re: Nintendo Direct Thread - NEW DIRECT - 2015.1.14 (6AM PST/9AM EST)

So... Wii games are coming to Wii U as eShop downloads. Which means that you can post screenshots from Wii games to Miiverse, right?

Alright thanks. That actually was not an as obvious term as I thought it would be.

Now you say so, possibly.

Well, SMG2 was released today, so we'll just see if there is a Community for it. Moment.

E: no community for it.
 
Re: Nintendo Direct Thread - NEW DIRECT - 2015.1.14 (6AM PST/9AM EST)

updated video links in the OP in case you missed the livestreams

never watching it directly on the site again, the lag was real
 
Re: Nintendo Direct Thread - NEW DIRECT - 2015.1.14 (6AM PST/9AM EST)

I hope Nintendo will re-release more Wii games such as Mario Kart Wii, New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Wii Sports, etc.

Also, will the display and performance still be the same as in Wii Mode?
