Re: Nintendo Direct Thread
i thought this was a nice little direct. thoughts on the games that interested me:
TWEWY (!!!): i'm really excited for this one. the only thing im not sure about is how the gameplay will work. will be interested to see how they handle controls and stuff in regard to joy-cons
Super Mario's Balloon Odyssey: well i cant say im not a little bit disappointed that this basically means we probably won't get playable luigi but i guess the concept is fun enough. also sunshine mario!
Mario Tennis Aces: i dont really play the tennis games but this looked like a nice fun one. i might buy it in a year or two, or maybe even when it releases depending on the price
Hyrule Warriors: i guess its nice that its coming to switch? probably would feel that it's more justified if they hadnt already released an enhanced edition on 3ds but eh. playing through on 3ds once was enough for me so probably won't play it again
Kirby Star Allies: really happy to have a release date for this one! and so soon! and finally it seems we're getting simultaneous releases with japan for kirby instead of having to wait months after they get it. honestly can't wait for this one
Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze featuring Funky from the Donkey Kong Country Series: i might be in the minority here but this is actually probably one of my favourite announcements, and this is coming from someone who has beaten the wii u version 200%. i absolutely love this game and i'm happy it's getting a second chance to sell to a much larger audience. funky mode would be cooler if it wasn't just a ridiculously easy mode but still nice they added something new. i was actually thinking of playing through it again, but now i'll just wait until may. maybe i'll play through returns again in the meantime

Re: Nintendo Direct Thread
Just when I thought I was duped by the fake announcement Nintendo comes in and sucker punches me with a actual direct mini, just in time for when I wake up too. Not to much to say but there was some pretty nice things in there, I never got a chance to play The World Ends With You when it originally came out on the DS and it's pretty hard to find used so I'll probably grab the Switch version when it comes out, a lot of the characters appearances in Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance made me curious about their game of origin and it would be fun to learn more about them.
Mario Tennis Aces also looks really great and feels like a apology for Mario Tennis Ultra Smash's lack of content, the story mode in particular immediately grabbed my attention. I knew that Luigi would eventually be DLC for Odyssey although I wasn't quite expecting it in this form but still cool nonetheless, I wonder if he reacts to the outfits that Mario is wearing because it would be kinda funny to see him react to the Luigi costume. The DK DLC is Mario+Rabbids is also cool.
Also looking for to Kirby Star Allies and of course Kirby Battle Royale, the Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze and Hyrule Warriors ports and slightly curious about Dark Souls. Still no Metroid Prime 4 information or updates but I'm sure they're probably waiting until this year's E3 to unveil that.

Re: Nintendo Direct Thread
Mostly interesting stuff, I enjoyed it. Twewy and Ys were the highlights.
Twewy announcement is sick. Looks like they fixed the ios versions lack of partner thing.
It's nice that they aren't ditching this version of Pokken but I'm probably still not going to buy it.
I figured Kirby would be soon, it looked the most finished out of what was shown last year.
I might actually pick up this version of Hyrule Warriors if I get the itch. I kind of decided not to continue with the original because there was a lot to do and there was a lot of content exclusive to the 3ds version (maps, costumes, actual stages) and that rubbed me the wrong way.
I can't tell if there's less of the sparkly circle things or not but I'm excited for Mario Tennis always. Waluigi looks hot. Story Mode could be cool.
Fucking Ys VIII baby. I actually kind of anticipated that if Falcom was going to jump into the switch game then they'd do it with this one. I already bought it on PS4 but I'd buy it again. This must've been the reason that NISA got this one over XSeed, although they still absolutely butchered the PC release and the localisation.
More Odyssey stuff, the balloon thing looks fun. More costumes to wear with the invisibility hat.
Still have to play more of rabbids anyway so this kind of works out better, I can play the DLC when I'm actually interested in it after playing the main game.
This game looks neat 'use the joycon motion controls' nevermind.
I never got Tropical Freeze so this works out for me. I'll just pick it up on this.
Never played Dark Souls so maybe I'll pick this one up.

this is not a drill
keep in mind it's only 20 minutes long but I'm still silently hoping for switch smash

Re: Nintendo Direct Thread
Expect a few more 3DS game announcements, more character reveals in Mario Tennis, FE teaser, and more third-party Switch games.
