all I need is Wii U Smash with a few new characters (Squids, BotW Link, a few others) and replacing that dumb board game thing with a few different maps of Smash Run and it will be GOTY

Overall a great direct. A lot of release dates which aren’t super exciting but good to have. Mario tennis new mechanics don’t seem great. Everything splatoon owned. Solaire amiibo hell yeah. Captain toad hell yeah. SMASH ANNOUNCEMENT DAAAAMN

Splatoon is an amazingly good 3rd person shooter it’s so fun. The single player is more of a platformer than the multiplayer

So dark souls, Mario tennis, and now Okami for sure. I never bothered with luigi' mansion. Any good? Also definitely getting Captain Toad, it's apuzzle game right? Which version isgonna be the better one?

Smash is a given ? Very excited.

So I'm gonna get....

WarioWare Gold
Okami HD cause I've somehow never played it (I would get it on PS4 but given it's an SD game given a remaster I figure it doesn't matter as much)
Luigi's Mansion if it was on the Switch but it isn't so gently caress that
Undertale cause I've never played it somehow still
Mario Tennis depending on how I get on with the tournament thing
Splatoon DLC day fuckin 1
and of course SMASH

Haven't played Crash remakes or Little Nightmares but I feel like I'd rather get both for the PS4. Didn't really like Treasure Tracker from the little I played so not picking that up (would have much preferred a 3D World port but oh well)

Ok direct in the end, was pretty meh until the last two announcements which really won me over.

Travis Strikes Again has you playing a Death Drive game console. Is this going to be a prequel/sequel to Let It Die?

Smash4 with BOTW link as his own char along with inklings is fine with me

I think it's more likely that alt skins will be one type of new content, and BotW Link is just the most high-profile one of those. TP Link is from a 12-year-old game so the BotW designs should take over, but I don't see them being separate characters.

I think Ice Climbers must be coming back, since we know they were in dev and were only cut due to 3DS limitations (not a factor anymore).

I'm going to be the Nintendo fan hipster and say this direct really wasn't for me. It's awesome Octopath got a release date. I hope Smash is a new game and not just a port with Splatoon characters.

Yeah, it seems to be a crossover with Let It Die in some capacity. I'm kind of sad that the Co-Op partner isn't Uncle Death.

Yeah for sure I got like 120 hours out of it I think so I can't complain, especially when it only really cost me like £10 after selling it.

Why the gently caress is Wario Ware not on the switch? Passing the joycons around, playing docked or undocked, it's perfect for it.

It never had a second screen on Wii U, the gamepad screen just showed the same as the TV.

You interacted with it via the gamepad screen though. Breaking blocks and turning handles and sliding terrain. You could also blow in to it.

Scholars are some of the most pompous and pedantic people I've ever had the joy of meeting.
I look forward to people figuring out every single character shown in the Smash tease, aside from the obvious ones like Samus and Bowser (and Captain Falcon(?) next to Samus). BotW Link instead of the traditional-looking Link is rad.

There will be words had if my man Ike somehow gets cut, especially for some lesser FE character (IE: any FE character because Ike is the best).

Shneak posted:

...it's actual title is Octopath Traveller? :colbert:

No reason not to be, it stuck almost as soon as they announced it. If they planned to change the name that was thrown out the window by giving people a name to associate with it.

I like the name, even if it is extremely literal (8 heroes with their own stories/paths to play).

Spellman posted:

Hahaha all this final smash bullshit shows they've learned nothing

*simple rules!

Mario Tennis needs a 'basic controls' mode that makes it play exactly like Wii Sports Tennis. No fancy poo poo, just simply-as-hell gameplay so they can tap back in to that crowd of non-gamers they'd gotten a hold of with the Wii (because the Switch needs to sell even faster :v:).

LEMME SHOW YOU SOMETHING!!!
Smash announcement was a great vid, and that few seconds with the reflection in her eye and the flaming symbol will be an overused gif, Wario64 already posted one, haha. I'll buy it like I did the last 2, play for a couple hours and never touch it again. Hopefully they keep Cloud in it for this version too.

I am glad they are porting gamecube games, but wish it was the switch, will skip it on 3DS. Will get Warioware Gold, but wish it was on Switch as well.

Glad Captain Toad is getting a port. Now they just need to port the 2 Zelda HD releases, XCX, NSMB and SM3D World over and my WiiU will just be a fancy Wii... until they release Skyward Sword HD (motion control optional), Prime Trilogy HD (motion control optional), and Mario Galaxy collection, then my WiiU will be a knick knack for my TV stand.
