Nintendo will also drop Nintendo Directs all year long when they have stuff to release which is basically the same as their E3 stuff anyway

That's true, they do, and it's pretty cool. We get a level of transparency from them that we don't from the other companies. But the downside is almost all the stuff we knew about in advance. And I know Nintendo has stepped away from E3 in a major way for a while now and tend to do their own thing, and that's ok too.

But this was their showing on the week of E3 and they had a chance to really surprise people with at least something, and they didn't. They chose to show a half hour of SSB. I reserve the right to be disappointed in their presence at E3 today.

Fire Emblem + Playable Lora in the Zenoblade thing enough for me :allears:

Kid will love Smash. Ms Jones will be annoyed at lack of Animal Crossing, but that will almost certainly launch with it's own direct.

The Treehouse format is better than most of the conferences, IMO since Nintendo usually does it a couple days, spreads out new announcements, and shows most of their games hands-on or in-depth with developers throughout the week too as opposed to just dropping a bunch of trailers and calling it a day

With 64 fighters Smash Ultimate had to have pretty much been worked on shortly after 4 came out because that’s an insane amount of balancing needed. 64 characters, how they interact with the other 63, how they interact with all stages, and how the interact with all items. Sakurai is insane :psyduck:

I wonder if Sakurai feels better or worse that he can send balance patches/updates when ever something game breaking is found. On one hand it means he does not have to get everything right the first time but on the other hand his job is never done until he's dead.

spreading out the announcements is dumb. you have an audience for your main show, it was far from overpacked, show it then so people will know what it is

Are the Treehouse events just to showcase gameplay from the stuff from Direct or can we expect to see new stuff? Basically what I'm asking is if there's any chance we'll see some Bayonetta 3.

Also Smash is good.

In the trailer they showed battling so it looks like they've just fused Go! and Yellow for a spin-off game which isn't the worst in the world to me because now I can get through dark cave without losing my team to geodudes suicide bombing at me over and over

I love when Nintendo has someone who has never touched a video game before show off the gameplay demos at Treehouse

I kind of get the complaints. I only got excited for three games this Direct and two of them were Mario Party and Fire Emblem.

That being said, I got really loving excited for SSBU, so this was a good Direct in my books.

Is it just me or does this look like a fully fledged Pokemon game? I never played Pokemon Go so idk what that gameplay was like (beyond it just being a reskinned Ingress).

If this has 90% of the gameplay as the handheld Pokemon RPGs, could that mean the "true Pokemon RPG" Nintendo promised to unveil next year is going to be something more than Pokemon Sun and Moon but on Switch?

It looks like a 3D remake of Yellow except wild pokemon battles are all Safari-Zone/Pokemon Go based instead of battling them down.

This lacks battling wild pokemon, online battling/trading and is limited to the original 151 pokemon. The new one is a new generation with presumably all those features intact and no shoehorned in Go-stype catching minigame.

I think that's a fair assumption.
