What was your favorite reveal from yesterday's Nintendo Direct?

[HarveyHouston]

I voted for Switch Sports; I'm hoping that Switch Fit comes soon. I'm also interested in the Portal games.

 

[Noctosphere]

Super Kirby Odyssey

 

[Youkai]

Klonoa all the way.

I was really happy when i heard there will be a new Fire Emblem only to get my hopes crushed seeing its the millionth annoying warriors game -.-

No idea why they think people want 2 or 3 of those games every year ... guess people still buy this crap each year like they do with FIFA

 

[SANIC]

Live a Live carried the direct for me

 

[BORTZ]

Front Mission.
I feel like I'm the only one who is excited for it and thats fine. They can re-make/master that game just for me.

There are two main things I'm hyped for, Nintendo Switch Sports and the Mario Kart 8 DLC.

 

[linuxares]

I got most excited for Xenoblade 3 (since I'm a fan) but Mario Strikes? Out of the blue and it made me so happy to see it getting a new installment!

 

[cluesagi]

My favorite ? Definitely Live A Live HD-2D.

Too bad it's a Switch exclusive though, I'd have loved playing this on PC.

Octopath Traveler was a Switch exclusive too until it wasn't. I wouldn't be surprised if the same happened with this

 

[DudderButter]

The wiimotes worked well in Wii Sports. Do people think the joycons will as well ?

Well if there's any game modes that need the joysticks, that won't be so good for people who have drift.

Good thing I have MissionControl on EmuNAND so I can play with an actual wiimote if I really wanted to!

 

[XDel]

Valve on Switch... anybody?

 

[Issac]

I was having a blast, getting excited for one thing after the other. I cast my vote on Xenoblade Chronicles 3 though - but I am very excited by:
Chrono Cross and Radical Dreamers - finally an official, legal way to play it
Live-A-Live (Both "Live" pronounced as in "alive") - finally coming to the west, in a new, exciting updated coat of paint!
Front Mission 1 and 2 - Coming here in an updated coat of paint!
Advance Wars - it's freaking Advance Wars!
That triangle strategy game that I forgot the name of - looks fun.
And I've already forgotten plenty of the games.... but Xeno is the one that made me the most excite.

Front mission 1. I loved this game back in the SFC days. Can't wait to play it again

Did you play the DS port? I did back in 07. It was a very awesome experience for me. I had never heard of the series before then.

I hope we get ALL of FM1st. As in both OCU and UCS storylines.

By Front Mission 2 what do they mean? Is that the 2089 Border of Madness game?

I think they mean Front mission: Gun Hazard, which was also out for SFC/SNES. I never played the DS port, I wasn't even aware that there was a port on DS :/

 

[The Real Jdbye]

New Kirby looks pretty good. I guess that was my favorite part.

More Mario Kart DLC is good, but it confirms for sure that we're not getting a new Mario Kart on the Switch, and that makes me sad. It being more than a full game's worth of tracks makes up for it a little, but it's all retro tracks that look like they are low effort. And I guess we aren't getting any new battle mode stages, doesn't look like we're getting new characters or vehicles. So it really isn't a full game's worth of extra content. But I guess if they were going to do that it would make more sense to just release it as a new game. So I'm not totally unhappy with that announcement, just a little disappointed.

XENOBLADE CHRONICLES 3 IS SECOND!

I don't get the hype for artificially extending Mario Kart 8's lifetime; why not put all this in MK 9?

why not?
Because MK8D still sell well? maybe that's why?

And what, Mario Kart 9 wouldn't sell as well, if not better, since it'd be a "brand-new" product that people haven't essentially played since 2014?

that's my point
Why making effort creating a sequel?
It will sell just as well as MK8D right now
and trust me, it's much much much easier to make dlc than making an entire new game
It's not just Nintendo being lazy right there, not at all..
It's them thinking with their wallet
Why paying millions of bucks to develop a new game and wait for several months for a cashback, when you can make DLC for a couple of hundread of thoudands and getting cashback two weeks after its release?

Let's talk about you, would you rather make lot of money in a hard, slow and safe way? or rather in an easy, fast and still safe way?
