Gaming Nintendo Direct 3DS 17th April

[emigre]

I think it's Nintendo themselves doing it, might be wrong though.

Peeps at NISA were going on about having a publishing deal with FATLUS, I'm guessing they would be publishing this after they did P4G and EOIV.

Mario Party? More like Mario Shart-y.

Link to the Past? More like Stink to the Past.

Shin Megami Tensei? More like Shit Megami Tensei.

Animal Crossing? More like Animal Tossing.

Choo choo! The contrarian train stops for no one!

- 3 hearts and more items (more barrels, a green pits rescue service balloon like in the Japanese SMA4 e-Reader levels, kart protection) for easy mode, they are also adding new 3DS-exclusive super-hard challenge levels, in DKCR 3D
- Yoshi Island 3DS !!! a 2D title
- Mario vs Donkey Kong 3DS eShop (May 9): based on the scrapped Kirby 3D puzzle game
- Wii U Virtual Console (with SNES, GBA titles)
- Wii U Panorama View
- Pikmin 3: Rock Pikmin, Winged Pikmin
- Earthbound for USA and Europe !!! (Mother 2 US, WiiU Virtual Console)
- That Summer Holiday game from Guild-02 for Europe?
- Layton 6 Azran Legacy for 2013 in Europe
- Bravely Default localized for 2013 in Europe !!!!!!!!!!!
- Another 2D Zelda for 3DS !

They said N64 titles for the Wii U has well. But it sucks! Why not for the 3DS? And it's Bravely Default: Flying Fairy, the 3DS game...But 2014 isn't soon...I wanted to spit in his face when he said 2014.

For me this direct was a let down. GBA games for a non-portable/handheld, is such a slap to the face for 3DS owners. I truly believe Nintendo doesn't understand gamers anymore.

I don't mind the classic top view. It's the general appearance that seems odd (The houses and trees look so much like the Pokemon ones that I actually wondered if it was a game developed by Game Freak). But I'd better play the game before getting to conclusions

oh ok, well i think its fits perfect, as it looks like it feels perfectly what the original was, but what it would of looked like if they had higher graphics to work with, as that is very much the old style of link

Shin Megami Tensei? More like Shit Megami Tensei.

I think [user]emigre[/user] would like to have a word with you....

 

[GHANMI]

The European Direct said clearly "later this year" about Bravely Default, so it's slated for 2013 there.
... Does it have something to do with NoA habit of delaying RPG releases?

 

[chartube12]

The NA direct said coming soon followed by a slap in the face 2014. No season, quarter or time of year ect. This usually means a late 2014 release if there isn't delays.

I want the new Link to the Past and Mario Party 3DS, Yoshi's Island, meh, Mario crying was annoying in the 90's and most likely it will be in 2013.

Of course it does. They're going to make sure it does well in Europe first in case they want to can the US release. It's not Mario/Zelda/Pokemon, so why would we want it?

psuedo-3D

They're real time rendered models, watch the trailer again and see how perspectives can change.

Reminds me of DKC prerenders, which in my opinion is a good thing! This kind of artstyle has rarely if ever been done in real time before.

 

[Wombo Combo]

Only interested in new zelda and yoshi story others I will pass on.

 

[the_randomizer]

Yoshi's Island, that isn't about yarn, being sugary or involving other baby Nintendo characters? Wow, hell froze over. I'm getting it.

 

[Osha]

Too many games, not enough money... Well, better start counting my coins.

Who is hoping this new zelda game is fully touch screen controlled?

I have to say for all the talk of DS having inferior touch screens to the capacitive smartphone and tablet devices Spirit Tracks and Phantom Hourglass controlled way better than any game I have ever played on one of those types of devices....stylus>fingers for touch screen gaming.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
We have a circle pad now, it'll be much easier to play with it. Ocarina of time is a perfect example

I wouldn't mind a fully touch screen control, but the fact that the top screen will be the main screen and that this game is based in a traditional zelda makes me doubt it

My Reactions

-No Miiverse 3DS news? Great.
-New Zelda thats in Top-Down, just when I was hoping we would see a full 3D Zelda like OoT, ill pass.
-New Yoshis Island!? DGASFDAGSDFAG, HELL YER!
-Not ANOTHER Mario Party, I thought they said the Wii ones were the last ones!
-Meh, Mario Vs Donkey Kong, ill pass.
-No new Kirby games?
-Earthbound VC, if emulation didnt exsist I would have grabbed a Wii U just for this

Overall- Eh, it was an alright Direct, not the orgasm fest for me that I was hoping.

You're trolling wrong. No one in their right mind would want to be forced to control a game with a stylus.

 

[Kikirini]

I'm so excited about the new Zelda. I wasn't expecting them to announce anything involving that franchise <3
