HERE WE GO.

 

[Rinnen]

I can't even look at that Metroid thing.

 

[phalk]

Fucking Rhythm Heaven!!!

 

[deinonychus71]

I was somehow still hoping for Wolf in Smash when they started talking about Star Fox...
*cries*

 

[Issac]

Quite a few interesting titles in there. I'm not disappointed.

 

[mar789]

Best Direct I've ever seen. Couldn't have asked for better.

 

[endoverend]

I am mostly very disappointed. Rhythm heaven is the one thing I liked.

 

[MissingNO123]

Too bad there's no new Metroid or Paper Mario....

 

[chavosaur]

Direct is now over. Overall kind of underwhelming. Really fucking mad about N3DS only SNES VC.

Are you kidding me? Standard 3DS ambassador games got GBA games, are you trying to tell me you can't run a fucking SNES game on normal 3DS?

Fuck you Nintendo.

 

[sarkwalvein]

Pooor... Weak... I was prepared for disappoint... but please understand, this is too much.

 

[Pacheko17]

It's over, what a boner-killer.

I was expecting too much but there were some cool stuff in there. Like more Federation Force info, I'm really hyped for that game.

 

[CathyRina]

I hate Nintendo so much right now...
>Snes games exclusive to N3DS
This is why I keep hacking your shit, Nintendo.

 

[endoverend]

Direct is now over. Overall kind of underwhelming. Really fucking mad about N3DS only SNES VC.

Are you kidding me? Standard 3DS ambassador games got GBA games, are you trying to tell me you can't run a fucking SNES game on normal 3DS?

Fuck you Nintendo.

Well, to be fair, GBA games aren't emulated. But I'm also salty about N3DS only stuff and it makes me want to just emulate them with homebrew or just a pc.

 

[weavile001]

It was awesome, Rhythm Heaven, Monster hunter Generations,Bravely Second,Dragon quest 7, and SMTXFE.
I Wanted more info on 7TH Dragon III but , oh well.

 

[MissingNO123]

blargSNES can run SNES games on o3DS, so why can't Nintendo, the people who made both systems, do the same???

 

[endoverend]

Most of this direct was just Nintendo begging for money for DLC, amiibo, and games no one asked for. Dammit.

 

[Blaze163]

SNES emulation only on N3DS? Eat my ass, Nintendo. Much as I'd love to play Super Metroid, Mario World, and finally play the original Starwing in actual 3D, I'm not upgrading, it's not worth it. Put out a dozen great new games that actually need the hardware and I'll give it a look. I'm not spending a small fortune on a minor upgrade just to play Xenoblade and SNES games. That's why God gave us the brains to create emulators.

 

[mancasoko]

I must say very weak show. I guess even they know that there is a good reason for new console.

 

[loco365]

Are you kidding me? Standard 3DS ambassador games got GBA games, are you trying to tell me you can't run a fucking SNES game on normal 3DS?

Fuck you Nintendo.

Do remember that the SNES runs under a completely different processor than the GBA, so there's more overhead to run it. Anyways, setting up an emuNAND on my N3DS just so I can get some SNES VC.

 

[DJPlace]

the new Kirby for 3DS better have online. or it's going SUCK and BLOW. Kirby just needs to be in the online world nintendo with his own game.

 

[ultimatetemper]

FE Fates' EUR release date is May 20
