The apology is nice but I think any sane person understands that anything that could be out for launch was pushed out for launch.

Looks like Wonderful 101 is going to be Pikmin-esque, with occasional setpiece moments focusing on a few key heroes.

I really like the idea of your heros bantering with eachother as you run around, Pretty sold on that game from what I've seen.

Your right on here. I dont expect new blockbusters so soon, the next game I care about is Pikmin which was confirmed for March already.

It is odd to call a time block your "launch window" and then to just have games come out at the start and end of the "window".

So I'm guessing the new non-linear Zelda isn't coming until 2014.

No shock that that Zelda is a bare minimum of a year out.

Edit: That looked like it was effectively Xenoblade 2 and I'm perfectly okay with that.

And we get a Xenoblade-esque game from Monolithsoft. With giant robots that turn into vehicles :supaburn:.

Holy poo poo. When they showed the new Monolith title and it was like Monster Hunter with machineguns I didn't think it could excite me more, but when the guy got into a mech and flew around my heart almost stopped.

Yeah... all this Direct did was make me realize that I probably won't be getting a WiiU until 2014 (when the new Zelda, 3D Mario, and maaaaybe Smash Brothers drop). Good to know they're officially on their way, though. :)
