Any game you want to see during this Nintendo Direct?

[bugholder's epiphany]

I'd be shocked to see Deltarune again since chapter 5 did come out like 2 months ago but whose to say! 

I've also heard a bit about Mother 3? If I remember correctly, it never got released in English correct? 

Yeah, it's never been released in America, people have been wanting it for yeaaaars lol. Maybe this year will be the year LMAO
Maybe
I can always dream lmao

I HOPE FOR THE BEST THEN!!!!

Still, a little curious why it wasn't released in America. Did it not perform well in Japan or something? Or was it made to be JP exclusive?

1 day left!! Will most likely watch the direct during my lunch time :3

So! Turns out I was so busy at work yesterday I forgot to tune into the Direct xD what did I miss?
It shows that I'm so detatched by social medias by the fact that I haven't heard any fandom go insane spreading news around. Maybe I should add a bunch of videogame news blogs on my RSS...

Not sure if you decided to watch it but here were some games that showed!!

Metroid Prime (I think it's based on the older games but it is an original game)

Kirby (New Kirby game and ammibos)

Professor Layton

Yokai Watch (a little teaser)

Danganronpa 2x2!! (VERY HAPPY!!!)

Fire Emblem - New game

Persona 6 + Persona 4 remake

Final Fantasy remakes - Idk the name but it had Tiffa and Cloud

Meccha Chamelon

Mario Kart World - Free update

Resident Evil - remakes or being added to Nin switch

The Witcher + DLC coming to Nin switch later

I think that's all from what I remember?

@Serlei thank you for the recap list! <3
In the end I caught up watching both the general Direct and the special one dedicated to Zelda's 40th anniversary, we Ace Attorney fans get to wear the clown nose one more time I guess
"It'll be announced next time for sure! Honk honk" 
I imagine we can at least occupy our time with either the new Layton or the new Danganronpa, though to be honest I always found Danganronpa's characters to be way too insufferable to the point of ruining the joy of playing xD guess they are written like that so you don't feel bad then the story unfolds, but still...

While not interested in remakes, especially regarding stuff I have already played, I found the new Ocarina Of Time very pretty. The updated town is veeeery nice, I like the architecture and how lively it looks. I really hope they didn't make the same mistake of Scarlet/Violet and will instead allow players to explore inside houses and talk with many NPCs.

In the end, the Zelda concert was the thing that attracted me the most out of everything, haha. I was excited for the Eiropean tour but then I saw the dates and... well they could rename it UK tour actually. >.> no show for the continental Europe at all (which messes me up because we have SO MANY worldwide famous orchestral concert halls here!). At one point I saw "Vienna" in the list and I was like "hey, that's very close to me!" until I realized that's not Vienna, the capital of Austria home of Mozart(!!!), but Vienna, a city in Virginia USA. Come oooonnnn!

I am very surprised that AA7 didn't get announced, espeically with there being an apparent leak but I've heard older AA fans say that AA7 'leaks' have been happening for a while now so idk. I think Capcom is doing smt later, I think with Ace Attorney?? but Idk...ALSO NOT EVERY DANGANRONPA CHARACTER IS INSUFFERABLE YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE ME...please... 

Dr 2x2 was delayed and I think the delayment was actually good on their part. Compared to the first trailer to this one, the quality is so good!!! 


Didn't watch the Zelda direct, cause I barely know anything about it  , but I heard it was pretty good? I know they also had a few remakes, maybe a new game idk, and the movie release date! And the little instrument thing that actually plays music, although I have a feeling it is/going to be very expensive 

Are you planning on going to the Zelda concert?? 

[ValyceNegative]

Are you planning on going to the Zelda concert?? 

I'd have to settle for one of the dates in UK but I'd love to, if I'm ever able to juggle my convention dates and travels! Most of them are planned for next years so I have plenty of time to organize xD

Yayy!!!! Well I do hope you end up going!!! (If you have the time of course!!)

my "excited to play" list:

• ocarina of time remake

i've never finished the original oot to the very end. i've gotten close a few
times, but fell off, so if anything, starting with the remake would be a perfect time to actually finish the og oot and see what the ending is like, and if the remake made any notable changes to what i recall of the original

• kirby and the world beyond

i've... actually never really played a kirby game before, and this looks so cool! i think before i get started on this, i should really play forgotten land, just to get a feel of things, but man the more i hear about kirby games the more i'm kinda kicking myself for not getting into them earlier, haha.

my "these would be nice to play, but not a priority whatsoever" list:

• meccha chameleon

this seems like a super fun game to play with a group of friends, but all of my buds are fairly busy, so this is probably going to go in the backburner until someone brings it up.

• fire emblem: fortune's weave

as cool as this looks, i haven't played three houses nor engage yet, and i feel like i have to experience those two games in order to really sink my teeth into fortune's weave. and to be honest? i don't see myself getting 3h or engage this year; i'm too busy being stuck in xenoblade so fire emblem is going to have to wait.

• metroid ravenous

really happy for the metroid fans out there that were either anticipating a new entry, or in general wanted something new after mp4 and dread. i can't say i'm one of those people, not because i don't like metroid, but because i'm so behind in getting around to playing it that it feels like it's going to take me FOREVER to get caught up to the most recent lore and games and understand everything. like, i've only finished metroid prime 1 and maybe half of 2. i really need to get to it, but it'll be a while before that happens.

---

i think broadly, think direct was okay. like, it wasn't something that blew me away (mostly because i'm a jrpg player and those tend to be mostly my thing lol), but i think it contained enough games for me to look forward to that it wasn't disappointing.

[bugholder's epiphany]

I HOPE FOR THE BEST THEN!!!!

Still, a little curious why it wasn't released in America. Did it not perform well in Japan or something? Or was it made to be JP exclusive? 

FSR i thought i had already answered this when i never actually did. Whoops!

Anyway, i dont think any reason was ever really given, I think reasons range from the previous game, Earthbound, not being a financial hit, to people thinking some stuff in the story would not fly well in america, to the effort of translating it to english at the time not being seen as worth it.

Anyway, as for the Direct itself:

Metroid Ravenous. I am very ravenous for this one. Give m,e. Givesme. Gibme. gib.

Oh I see 
I hope they do come up with something for Earthbound. Maybe at the time it wasn't as popular but I have been hearing a lot of it in recent years! And I feel like JP culture now, especially in gaming culture, is more understood than it was years ago with games like Living the Dream not having to change a lot of things for an English release! (Like clothing for example, where in the original Tomo Life you couldn't get Japanese clothing if you had a EN version but now in Living the Dream you can get Japanese clothing!)

All that to say, I hope Nintendo does eventually release Earthbound 3! 


I'm glad to see that Metroid was there!! Not a Metroid fan but knowing my brother wanted a Metroid game like Ravenous and actually getting it in the direct was very nice to see!! I hope Metroid fans are very happy!!
