this probably isnt worth mentioning but the japanese nintendo direct had this one scene where SEGA announced that PS02 will be coming to the switch through cloud streaming

 

[tatripp]

The graphics on Superstar Saga look like a downgrade from the original GBA game.

 

[Bu2d85]

Well that was shit...

Do we know anything about Minecraft for the 3DS? Is it getting the infinite worlds and crossplay features, too? I'm assuming no because the 3DS is weak af.

Minecraft is single player only and appears to have zero online ability, so I would say that crossplay is not going to happen unless they release an update for it.

EDIT: http://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/minecraft-new-nintendo-3ds-edition#game-overview

EDIT 2: Judging from the map at the bottom I would say that the worlds are not infinite. This looks like the early version of the IOS game. I hope they fix it with updates. This was one of the most requested but now very disappointing games for the 3DS.

Also wanted to point out from the jap direct something I find funny for danganropa or attack on titan fans.

What is that

It has worlds bigger than the Wii U version or switch can't remember which, and is equal to Pocket Edition 0.15.4
Multiplayer is going to be added later on

Xenoblade Chronicles 2 looks like ass. But ill still play

How though? It's SOOOOO much weaker than the Wii U and the Switch. Like LEAGUES weaker o.o

You honestly liked the previous iterations' art style more? Nothing like the appealing 4 KB texture faces the Wii iteration had, eh?

 

[Viri]

Yay, Lyn is in! I kinda wish I had a n3DS instead of o3DS now. Maybe one day! Also, I hope they add Hector.

Thanks man!

Do we know if worlds will be transferable? To Switch? I highly doubt it, but you know. lol.


Also, the Vita handled this game like balls, I'm scared to see how the 3DS will.... but then again, this isn't exactly "ported", in the proper sense, is it? It's made FOR the 3DS? It might run better...

Well, no point in smea's 3dscraft anymore.

 

[kehkou]

I'd agree to an extent.

I suppose one could argue that they carry on his legacy.

Free, but micro-transactions. I'm still hyped....even if @Chary isn't hyped enough to mention it in OP .

 

[Xzi]

Xenoblade 2, Octopath Traveler, and Mario Odyssey are all shaping up great. Surprised but happy to see DOOM4 coming.

 

[TotalInsanity4]

I'm probably late, but how many people were saying "THE SWORD HAS BOOBS" when Xenoblade 2 came up?

 

[chrisrlink]

answer me this is US/UM O3ds compatable (mode 3)? or did they change it to a N3DS title only and adding two UB's was a good move I hope Ultraspace is larger too (also seeing the Aither foundation attacked by Necrozma proves it's a parallel universe since it almost looks identacal to UB 1's attack in S/M and NOT a timeskip)

 

[Xzi]

Also definitely getting Morphie's Law, Golf Story, Nine Parchments, and Kirby Star Allies. Oh, and Super Meat Boy Forever. Maybe get Sonic Forces. It'll be hard to top Mania.

 

[Bladexdsl]

another useless update giving us stuff we already know about.
