Saw today's E3 for Nintendo
9 years ago
I love that feeling when your prey is kicking in your gut.
I think my opinion will be similar to many others, there were a lot of 'yays' a few 'mehs' and maybe an 'ugh' or two. Let's start with the yays:
Legend of Zelda: Breath of The Wild. Kinda reminds me of monster hunter where you have to find weapons,items and armor yourself, huge world though no wonder they used it for an entire day's segment.
Paper Mario: Color Splash. The koopalings are in this one so it's an instant yay in my book, though when the game was demonstrated I cringed because the play style reminded me too much of sticker star, seriously hoping they aren't going that route.
Rhythm Heaven Megamix. I played the US rhythm heavens up to this point and it looks like this one won't disappoint either. Games from the two US versions and the one Japan-only version will be on this one. Which makes me happy.
Now for the 'mehs'
Mario Party Star Dash (I seriously hope that's the title). Looks like a better version than the DS version and Donkey Kong is playable but the demonstration made it look like any other Mario Party game, I don't have anything against it but don't expect anything drastically new.
Ever Oasis: Saw the demonstration and....I don't know what to think about this game, it looks like a combination of exploration, shop managing, and dungeon crawler. I guess it's ok but I still don't know what to think.
Yo-Kai Watch 2. I didn't mind the first one and it looks like it's getting a sequel, good for Level 5 Studios.
Pokemon Go: Loved the accessory that went with the game, sadly I don't own a smart phone but it's great they're trying to get people to move around.
Tokyo Mirage Sessions: This game looks beyond interesting, but it also looks really complicated and all the songs they're using are in Japanese which confuses the heck out of me. Still, I might try it out.
Finally the 'ugh' for me:
Pokemon Sun & Moon: Honestly I lost touch with the franchise after the Johto region, even if they touch up the graphics and add new pokemon it just feels like they're running out of ideas. On top of that they have pokemon that if the typing is right are weak to elements that logic dictates they should be strong against. Definitely a pass from me.
I know i'm missing a few but I forgot the names of them so I couldn't give an accurate assessment of those.

FA+

Pokémon Go: How do you get the accessory if it's a smartphone app.
LOZ: Breath of the wild, definitely looking forward to that. Though you're a little wrong in that monster hunter requires you to grind monsters repetitively. Which...Regarding Monster hunter I got an MH generations demo code WHEEE!
