I think It was a awesome direct!

question is Kazuya going to be in Smash Ultimate

Yeah, Nintendo won.

Kazuya joining Smash, which mean Heihatchi will be a spirit possibly Legendary.
Advance Wars returning.
The first two Zelda titles and Link's Awakening coming to a Game & Watch.
Plus Breath of the Wild 2.

Yeah, it’s nice Tekken got a rep. Though I have no interest in Smash or Tekken.

Advance Wars is nice to see comeback.

Zelda I am glad for too overall!

I got so much nostalgia from the Mario Party game. I really want to pick that up, but..I don't know? $60 for only 5 boards seems a little much? Hopefully they'll add some more as DLC, but I just feel like a Switch game should have more than 5 when the N64 games had like 8? But I do really want another multiplayer game to play with friends and I didn't get the last Mario Party so I won't feel too burned by picking this one up. Oddly, it was probably the most exciting reveal for me.

Metroid game looks great. Thinking about getting that one too but games where something I can't kill is constantly chasing me give me a lot of anxiety, so I'm unsure. :OP

I've never owned any of the Wario Ware games myself, but I've played them before. I'll probably pass on it but always good to see a new one.

Personally didn't care for the new Smash character, but I barely touch Smash anymore so I guess it doesn't matter. I think it was ok, but there just wasn't anything that really got me crazy excited. The top four things I hoped to see were Mario Kart 9 (or big DLC for Deluxe), Mario Odyssey 2, N64/Gamecube games for NSO or a big Animal Crossing update. Struck out on all of those sadly, but maybe another time. Nintendo did say they had more stuff in the works that they couldn't show yet.

That’s likely why. I heard it was 6. They probably wanna balance the boards from each of the games. I feel like it’s worth. They remade a mix of the 3 first Mario Party games really well. It has Rosalina and they brought back Birdo to be playable. They even brought back that old feature where during a player’s turn others can be distracting and each character got new 2D art for that. I feel this be the type of game to get DLC. They are including characters that weren’t in the original three. They added a new feature to save your game mid match which is nice. I’m gonna see Treehouse later for it. Fans are happy to see Mario Party is back on it’s roots.

Heh, it’s alright. Anxiety games is something I love. I loved games like Majora’s Mask and the isolation of Metroid Prime I loved. To see a new Metroid going even darker is great! This is something I like for the holidays. I haven’t touched a Metroid game in a long time. Perfect that it’s coming out in October too.

WarioWare was surprising since after Gold, it was thought we never see another Wario game again. But Nintendo did and the concept is great!
Not sure if I’ll get it but it’s in my eShop wishlist just in case.

I cared little for Kayuza as well, but it’s nice to see a Tekken rep and Capcom now has 4 reps now I believe.
I was hoping for a new Mario Kart, New Mario(or DLC for SM3DWBF), more Nintendo Online and Animal Crossing but I didn’t mind they didn’t get shown. Nintendo did well and I know they got more coming eventually.

I probably will pick up Mario Party if I can convince my friend to play it with me. They really got me showing all those Mario Party 2 and 3 minigames. Hopefully they treat this one better than they did the last one. Sad to see no costumes though! But I'm excited for it.

I hope we get to see more of what Nintendo has to offer sometime in the next few months. I think it was a nice Direct but there just wasn't much in it for me, personally. So I'm left wanting more. Especially since the Pokemon remakes aren't really doing it for me, the Mario Kart 9 rumor seems to have not been true and ACNH updates seem dead so I don't have a lot to look forward to.

Alright. I would like to play it with you too! Perhaps a game to finally make use of VC on Discord for me. Now that you mentioned it... I did wonder about the costumes for a minute earlier, but thought came to me that they could do that for DLC. It be nice to have costumes that characters can wear and plus it wouldn’t what board they on and can even be worn during minigames. This one I feel will be enjoyed.

There’s word that Nintendo couldn’t show everything they wanted.
Pokémon Arceus is still something very new they didn’t talk much on. Pokémon & GameFreak can have a direct all for that.
Idk about rumors but seeing how there hasn’t been much major news with Mario Kart in a long time, I feel we got something coming.
For ACNH, AC fans are getting... entitled about not seeing it which is really immature. They seem to have gave too much expectations. I’m fine with AC not getting updates since Nintendo seemed to have shown other great announcements and was good variety. Perhaps September we hear big news from Nintendo for more games.
For Animal Crossing... I guess we just wait until the end of June. Animal Crossing news always comes at the end of the month and we have no idea what’s in store for the up coming months.

Well, maybe we could play it together some day if I end up getting the game. I haven't played a Mario Party game since the Gamecube days. I remember them being pretty fun but also pretty frustrating and pretty friendship-killing. :OP Costumes would make really fun unlockables, but I don't think Nintendo will do it.

They did say in the Direct that they were working on more games that they aren't able to show yet, so that's exciting.
I am expecting a Pokemon Direct. I kind of figured nothing Pokemon would be in the E3 presentation. Same with AC really. As much as I really wanted it there, I figured that an update to the game, no matter how big, probably isn't really something Nintendo would want to show off in the big E3 Direct unless it was part of some Zelda Anniversary tie-in like the Mario update. I dunno, I think many AC fans are just really craving some actual new content and not just a small update that adds in maybe 5 new seasonal items. For me personally, I really want a big item update and a minigames update so that I have something to do with friends in the game. Or co-op terraforming/decorating but pretty sure Nintendo would never do that.

Yeah. It's a great idea I just thought of. I don't see them doing it much either.

I love to see Blathers. I suppose for me personally it's giving me a reason to NOT play Animal Crossing lol. I got Garage, I recently got back into BotW weeks ago along with Bowser's Fury. I got art to work and I still didn't finish Yooka-Kaylee:The Impossible Lair. I think now is a good time for me to give AC a break or play very little.

Probably a good time for a break, yeah. I've mostly just been doing the daily tasks for the past few months because I've run out of stuff to do. Game Garage looks like it'll be really fun after all the ultra creative people have time to make some really grand games on it. Don't think I'll give game making a shot myself though. Looks too complex for me and I already neglect Mario Maker as is. Art's good! Looking forward to seeing what you draw.

Yeaup! I got all gold tools and all art pieces recently too. All that's left is grinding those miles for crafting, birthdays, deeds and KK as well as all critter models... That's not very fun. I'll do it when game gets updated.

Garage is fun but boi is it very complex! WarioWare DIY is way more simpler than garage! The games people will make though... I watched Dashie play it and someone made P.T. and Mario Kart.

I don't even have the storage for all the critter models, haha! I've resorted to just getting the coolest ones. Already resigned myself to the fact that I'll probably never complete the last few stamps I need. Just not worth the effort to grind for them and probably won't still be playing the game in the time it'll take me to do the ones like the KK Mania.

Ryukahr and Gamexplain (controversial, I know) showed off some really good Game Garage games too. I wish I had the skills. Would be fun to make a Yoshi game. And then make a variant of it using my OCs because I'm a terrible person like that. :OP

I made a 2nd account to help me get two models at a time and I time travel. The extra storage helps.

I’m gonna try making a Plessie game. Certain parts are very confusing but game development is no easy task, heh.
I do wanna make some games involving my fav kinks too, lol. But I’m more on really trying to work out matching how Plessie works in BF.

Plessie game sounds fun too! Hope you're able to make something of it!

Thx!

Also about Mario Party Superstars, they also added features from recent Mario Party games like special dice.
Though the boards are 64 only, they brought games from GCN too. So it could be possible for what kind of DLC to get if Nintendo goes with it.

That sounds fun. I really do hope they have some free DLC that includes new board packs and characters.

Me too. I watched the treehouse earlier and they really made a lot of improvements. Music was low compared to the commentary, but I really can't wait to hear the music! One thing I noticed is they use they use font of the original Mario Party too for the text like "START" and "FINISH". They really did the nostalgia better this time for a Mario game.

Can't wait to hear the Mario Party 2 music if it has any.

what it did wow and I can't wait to get that new Wario Ware game

I think it was an awesome direct as well, nice to see Metroid again and Mario Party Superstar I loved that too!

UwU I see you changed pic.

Yup. UwU

Heheh

Very entertaining Nintendo Direct. Some reveals were like "About time!" because in case of "Danganronpa Decadence" I know loads of people have been begging for years for there to be a Nintendo Switch port of such Visual Novel Mystery games and all those collections of adventure type games just are neat for people to play in their break or pass time on the go. WHile Nintendo players basically get some of such games leter, they still get all those collection packs which give you a lot of value in terms of playtime.

The Metroid and Zelda trailers both looked very exciting so far and seem to bring both a very dramatic-fantastic type of experience like their franchise fans enjoy from them.
Fatal Frame and Advance Wars coming back with a re-release and reboot also are also another pair of games to solidify the lineup.
Casual players got a bunch of neat titles here from Wario Ware to Mario Party, you can have a good new portion of Minigames and wacky board game actions. Speaking of Mario Party, that Peach's Cake map from the first Mario Party looked nicely in it's redone version there. Pretty.

Mario + Rabbids are games that definitely look fun in terms of how Mario lore is used and combined with the Grant Kirkhope OST it looks always rather enjoyable, I am just hesistant regarding the tactical RPG gameplay because I usually feel like that's not my strong side. But cool it got a sequel.
Monster Hunter Stories did in the same manner interest me but I couldn't get really warm with the normal Monster Hunter games. Gotta look more into the gameplay and whatnot and maybe I check it out yet.

Kazuya seems like a nice fit for the Smash roster even if not likely the one that people will hyype up) and as somebody generally interested in video game cha(racters I of course knew about the thing with those Tekken characters where somebody gets thrown down a cliff and whatnot. Cracked me a bit up when I saw it. XD
