Lol Dat monster hunter.

that MH news is fucking old wtf nintendo?

 

[Nathan Drake]

oh boy, nintendo giving the fans what they've been begging for for several years? lame.

To be blunt, the fans are idiotic hypocrites. They're the last people Nintendo should be listening to. The fans simply pine for rehashed content and ports of old console games, while on the side they bash the practice of ports when committed by other developers. It's actually ridiculous how excited people get for games that are readily available on so many other platforms, whether it be via emulation or otherwise. If you're that eager to throw $40 at a Nintendo 64 game with slightly better graphics, then I feel bad for you son, but I've got 99 problems and being dumb ain't one.

Also, Majora's Mask is treated like it's the best game ever, which it ain't. Out of all the Zelda games they had to remake, it had to be MM, because, reasons. Hate to be the bearer of bad news to the MM fans, but it's just another Zelda game trolololol

They would've been way better off doing an HD remaster of Twilight Princess but 3DS is a lot more lucrative so the inferior console/handheld wins.

I'm betting between February (like Team Ogre Attacks) and June, (like Light/Shadow) so either in December or March they should announce this.
Also, not a single news about Bravely Second. Metroid 3DS is a legend like Half-Life 3.
Greatly disappointed about this Direct, as Zelda games don't attract my attention...

 

[CathyRina]

That Direct was a huge waste of time
The only real news was that Majora 3D is a legit thing now and what happends on the wii U gamepad in Xenoblade Chronicles X the rest wasn't news. At all.

 

[Chiejina]

That has got to be the most underwhelming Nintendo Direct ever.
The only thing worth seeing was the first 5 minutes because of Zelda, but i don't even like Majoras mask. Every thing else was dlc and games that keep nintendo looking like a console for kids.

 

[KingVamp]

Looks like splatoon is eshop only.

Ugh,yeah, the voices of many will forever overshadow the voices of those who want real remakes and not slight graphical upgrades.

C'est la vie.

 

[Judas18]

Well, that was disappointing.

 

[MarioFanatic64]

Nintendo are officially withholding content through Amiibo.

I repeat.

Nintendo are officially withholding content through Amiibo.

Time to riot.

Kind of a pity that the only new game announcement was right at the start. And it being a remake of a Zelda game.

And they're sure busy making sure amiibo does something. Mario kart 8, Smash bros, captain toad, that kirby game, hyrule warriors...is nintendo going to release a game where those stupid things DON'T add additional costumes?


Other than that...kind of reasonable. Some releases are way closer than I thought (stealth inc 2 is out already?). X looks hands down gorgeous. And even that Mario kart DLC looks interesting (though I don't get why they mention it being cheaper when it's in a bundle. Won't that make people wait until May...when that second pack comes out? ).

 

[Foxi4]

Most disappointing Direct? Not by a long shot - at least they've announced something new that the fans actually wanted (for whatever reason), showed some fun gameplay and released some demos into the wild. I can easily recall worse Directs that showed nothing of value and just wasted everybody's time.

PS: My girlfriend is now pissed off that release dates were moved and Smash Bros. Wii U and Pokemon are both released on the same day. I quote:

ARE YOU F*CKING SERIOUS!? F*CK YOU NINTENDO! I've got preorders on both... f*ck

Thanks for raping our wallets, Nintendo. Keep it up.

about mario kart. You can preorder both dlcs and get them for cheaper than if you would buy them one at a time.

 

[gothicall]

Great news. finally Majora's Mask comming to 3DS.

 

[Bat420maN]

I missed the last ten or so minutes(had to go get kid from school), did we get a release date for the New 3DS?

That's all part of running a business, errybody rapin' their wallets up. Did people expect any less of a large international corporation?

 

[KingVamp]

Not sure if I will be getting it. Haven't even gotten Zelda wwhd, but I hope they have some master quest mode.
