Nintendo Digital Event... quite dissapointing [Sort of rant]
10 years ago
General
Im pretty sure most of you watched the digital event from last year, that was quite a great event, and easily the best one from last e3, but this one... they just didn't try enough.
They announced new games, but i had mixed feelings about them, they also released new teasers of upcoming games which is nice, but not necesary in my opinion, here are some of my toughts about this years presentation.
They finally showed the new Star fox game, i have played and beaten all of the Star fox games and my favorite ones are Star fox from the snes and Assault from the gamecube.
The game looks both interesting and boring at the same time, i really had big hopes for the game being like Assault, but better polished, the thing i liked the most about Assault was the ability to leave the airwing and landmaster at will on some levels, you could also either see Slippy or Krystal fighting on foot, even tough they both were a bit pointless and didn't make any difference, and the multiplayer was fun as hell, there were just so many things you could do on multiplayer, imagine if in this game you could play like this, imagine if it had an online multiplayer mode, it would be like Nintendo's version of Battlefield.
Also from how things are like, as hard as it sounds for the furry community i don't think Krystal might appear in this game, but its hard to tell, Fox, Slippy, and Falco appears in the teaser, but who's on the fourth arwing?, we can't tell if it's either Peppy or Krystal, but even if Krystal is not in the game we must face that Krystal has a lot of flaws, mainly when it comes to her personality, we know nothing about her, they tried to give her more personality on Command, but they failed, horribly.
Skylanders will include 2 new figures, this time being Donkey Kong and Bowser, but personally, who cares about Skylanders?, these games are aimed for little kids
We got to see a new Zelda and for the first time, ive never felt this uninterested, the game is only centered in solving puzzles inside dungeons, and defeating bosses, which is kind of meh... i guess it's nothing but an unnecessary spin-off.
They didnt announce 1 but 2 Animal crossing games, but they aren't the same as the past games, in the first game you design houses for villagers, which is kind of nice, but awkwardly different, also its pretty much clear that they recycled most of the game content from New Leaf.
They also announced a second game, but this time starring the main characters from Animal Crossing, in a marioparty-like game which you play with amiibos. ( I would love to have a Mabel amiibo)
After a long wait they finally announced a new Metroid game... but it doesn't look like a Metroid game... at all, they decided to go for a cartoony style which pretty much ruins the game itself, also you don't play as Samus in this game, you can't even take the enemies serious, they look pretty dumb, this is not a real Metroid prime game, just another spin-off.
They showed a Paper mario and Mario & Luigi in which both worlds collide, but im pretty sure they are just going to screw up the gameplay just as they did with Sticker Star, we haven't seen a true Paper mario game for over a decade.
Probably the thing i liked the most of this Event was the extra information Super mario maker, i had no idea that they had to sketch the levels first back in the 80's and personally im most hyped for this game than from any of the others announced, and i don't even have a WiiU.
Now i see why the Digital Event video in youtube has soo many dislikes, this presentation was nothing but disappointing announcements, they didnt even share more information about the next true Zelda game, they showed a trailer of a japanesse game which i didn't understand at all, and they showed nothing more than spin-offs and new info of already announced games.
I hope what i wrote wasn't Cringeworthy, this is just my opinion, they could have done better, and what do you think of this Digital Event, i would give it a 3 out of 10.
*Sorry for my english*

then i saw that cartoony federation shit and i've never felt this dead inside before
The metroid trailer has so many dislikes, easily the most hated game from this event, but all of the games are receiving hate, even the 3ds version of Hyrule warriors
I'm fairly interested in Yo-kai Watch, if only for the reason that it's closer to actually being a Shin Megami Tensei game than the travesty that is SMT x FE will ever be.
Besides those, I don't really care for the others. I really wanted Animal Crossing U, and I didn't really get it...
I prefer to stay lost in old nostalgia with the earlier games anyways.

But the wrong way.
But this? Some game they decided to make Metroid themed? Another thing I believe is that if a company is farming out their famous IPs to other developers for games, then the IP holder doesn't care too much about said IP.
Look at Silent Hill. You can argue the merits of Prime and Other M but this... ugh.
I'm really liking Mario Maker, it's probably the game I'm most excited for this E3.
Well, honestly, if they ditched the cartoony aesthetic, I could accept the new metroid game, but it seems kind of ill-conceived, and a kick to the balls to metroid fans, like me.
And i have no idea of what where they thinking with the new metroid prime game, specially the art style, it just childish, and i agree, it was like a kick in the balls, the whole event was a kick in the balls, wha were they thinking?
I really liked the gameplay mechanics from command, it also looked pretty nice, but the storyline is more about Fox and krystal's relationship other than saving the galaxy, we know nothing about the final boss, and the first ending you get is the biggest kick in the balls ive ever received finishing a game, i just hope this game isnt cannon at all, i couldnt stop thinking about the game and its awful endings for months.
And yeah, don't worry, Nintendo has pretty much said that if another post-Assault game comes out, it'll replace Command canon-wise.
The new StarFox technically wasn't even an announcement so much as it was a reaffirmation of what they were already hinting at.
