Tokyo Mirage and Xeno 1? *so happy*

I mean, my avatar say a lot no?

 

[Windaga]

Tokyo Mirage Sessions was so much fun. I can't wait to play Encore.

 

[DSoryu]

Man... Sakurai looks so damn tired. He should rest or take a vacation for his health sake :7.

 

[Reynardine]

No Mother 3? *cries*

I couldn't get into Xenoblade Chronicles' battle system last time I tried it. Maybe I should give the game a second chance.
I really like the music and art design, if only the battles weren't so confusing.

 

[Justinde75]

YES XENOBLADE

 

[Enryx25]

Love you Nintendo but this Direct was absolutely awful

 

[Harsky]

At least Nintendo won't be doing the drip feed of three SNES games a month for a year... for now. Overall, I thought this was a nice Direct and now I've got a list of, "to play" that'll last me for a while.

 

[Flame]

saw Super Mario World on the list..... greatest mario game ever.

 

[Xzi]

Man... Sakurai looks so damn tired. He should rest or take a vacation for his health sake :7.

Nope, we need five more fighters ASAP!

 

[Jiehfeng]

Black Flag handheld? Animal Crossing? Pokemon? Boobie games?! Man that was great.

Also did anyone notice the guy's smug look when SNES was announced?

All I can say is, not only will the wallet be empty, I will have to sell the empty wallet to survive.

 

[derthomas]

The SNES Controller is only usable with FW 9.0

 

[chartube12]

I can't believed they spoiled Xenoblade Chronicles Remaster by showing Fiora.

who?

 

[ombus]

One of the worst directs for me..

 

[chartube12]

I like how Nintendo teased with the roll back to the nes and than scrolled back to snes only to move over to neo geo. For a second I thought they were going to give us neo geo titles each month. Lol

 

[GameSystem]

who?

Not sure if joking, but

Spoiler: XB 1 Spoilers

She's a pretty big plot point when Shulk thinks she dies, but then they show her at the end standing with him with a custom outfit on and the robot ear thingies that are only there after she returns

 

[XorTroll]

C U R R Y D E X

 

[Enryx25]

I thought the girl at the end was Melia..?

 

[GameSystem]

I thought the girl at the end was Melia..?

You are probably right. I haven't played the game since it released on Wii and don't remember anything.

 

[the_randomizer]

Yeah Nintendo killed it

 

[Agusto101]

People can have their opinions and all that they want but with all the respect this direct was terrible....only xenoblade and kirby was the best things , no mario y Luigi, no fzero, no pikmin, no mario sunshine or DLC odyssey..not botw 2, bayonetta etc etc AWFULLL

 

[Flirkyn]

Xenoblade Chronicle Remake.... Well it's my favorite saga so I'm happy but I would have prefered a remake of X. Maybe later. But I hope they'll modify the side quest system, it was horrible. And now I understand why old Xenoblade characters were present as DLC in Blade 2, maybe because they had the new model now.

Tokyo Mirage Sessions was a great surprise but please, oh please, take away the censorship of non japanese WiiU version !

I really **REALLY** didn't expect a sequel to Deadly Premonition. Biggest surprise. Make me want to retry first one on PC.

SNES game finally, Little Town with Toby Fox for the soundtrack and some nice announcement. Not a big direct but I'm happy
