Compared to the last direct, I felt this one was so much better.
Last time we didn't get anything but "HEY WE'RE WORKING ON STUFF TUNE IN NEXT TIME".
It's still nice to see they have stuff coming.
Tec is just a full converted Sony fan now tho.
So awdood;

Poor Wii U. :(
Though with Game and Wario coming in June and Pikmin in August along with the VC and eShop games...it should keep me busy.
I'm actually surprised that Nintendo's finally making good games.
i'm also relieved
The visual styles of Yoshi's Island, Mario & Luigi, and that new Zelda are really lovely.
I'm going to make it my new mission to get that 3DS, I'd like to think the email I sent them persuaded them to do this giggle;
There's actually quite a few 3DS games I want now:
Animal Crossing New Leaf
Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D
Fire Emblem Awakening
Harvest Moon 3D: A New Beginning
Kid Icarus Uprising
Legend of Zelda Link to the Past Sequel
Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time 3D
Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon
Mario Golf: World Tour
Mario Kart 7
Mario Tennis: Open Court
Mario & Luigi: Dream Team
Mario Party
Paper Mario Sticker Star
Shin Megami Tensei IV
Super Mario 3D Land
Tales of the Abyss
Yoshi's Island 3DS
I... I don't see Star Fox 64 3D on that list. cry;
I was hoping that the Ace Attorney/Professor Layton crossover would be coming to the US when I saw Tec's post. Then I read the opening post and was horribly disappointed.

i'm not particularly worried about whether or not layton/ace attorney will be localized, i believe level 5 at least has already indicated that it'll be coming over lol
Dream Team Bros looks boss as fuck doe
yoshi's island looks ugly as hell
m&l has great art but i haven't liked any of the games since the first one
zelda looks a bit nasty visually but it'll probably be good and they'll probably clean it up considering how good games like luigi's mansion look
A LINK TO THE PAST SEQUEL
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I'M SHITTTTTTTTTTTING STILL.
i hope it's called a link to the present
and then later on there can be a futuristic one that fans seem to want so much called a link to the future
scifi zelda....yes

real talk i might just buy the lmt animal crossing 3ds
zelda....mario+louie....thats it ....
i think the zelda looks pretty neat, i mean the link model's a bit silly but in general i think it could be a cool looking game idk
yoshi i'm not so sure about lol
and i'm glad to finally have a more definite release window for pikmin 3

I lol'd
Yea I've played with the idea of a futuristic zelda, but I think that could go wrong on so many levels. I like to humor the idea that Dark souls is the
dark zelda I've wanted. lol
Was the DS Mario + Luigi any good?
And for some reason I just can't do the Yoshi's Island games. Always die going after the stars and it pisses me off, especially when they disappear.
Out of all that news I think I'm mostly interested in a new Animal Crossing
i wouldn't be totally opposed to the idea of a zelda that took place in a 'futuristic' setting, especially now that we've seen electrical devices like robots in a game that takes place as early as ss does
just as long as it's, you know, good

I also think Zelda could successfully borrow some cues from Demon's/Dark Souls. The Souls games really are enough like dark Zeldas as is. cry;
zelda game taking place on the moon
Zelda game take place in HELL 666 numbr of the beast
zeldoom
zelda game taking place at noon
also what if this game is essentially a majora's mask-style remix of alttp assets (albeit upgraded visually) + new features
here's some gameplay:

omg the it has the sword waves when you have full health giggle;
they say it's a sequel but everything we've seen so far indicates that it's a remake
same bosses, same enemies, same overworld map, same music akudood;

The dungeon is different
that's about it
and only because they want to emphasize the 3d effect myface;
they might expand it and make it 10 times better than the original like with what super metroid did to metroid 1 but this is modern nintendo so
are you guys kidding me though
it's like your brains just want to be as bitter and disappointed as possible
i mean it doesn't look amazing or anything but come on

it's a sequel because it's link...being linked to the past
he cannot escape his past
he is doomed to link to the past forever

seriously lol
i wouldn't mind if it turned out to be a remake rather than a sequel, but it sure is strange for them to claim it's a new game and then go on to show footage of exactly what we've already experienced in alttp (except in 3dpd)
and if it is a true sequel, i'd rather it didn't draw so heavily from alttp either, but i don't want to make any assumptions about how similar it'll be since all we've seen so far is a few short videos (it's not looking good, though myface;)

zelda games are expected to look amazing, of course anything short of that will be disappointing lol awdood;

The dungeon is different
that's about it
the core mechanic of the dungeon is still there though, so it's still more or less the same
the switches and the red/blue gates they put up/bring down
not to say that those switches aren't also in almost every other alttp dungeon after that one goowan
but it was introduced in that one and it's the core gimmick to it

and even the vertical level hopping thing was present in the original game, meaning so far they've demonstrated exactly one truly new mechanic (sidling across walls as a drawing)
and that one new mechanic looks terribly out of place
tec, they already said it's a completely new story line, so it's not a remake
i'm aware, but again, the videos aren't doing them any favors lol
maybe with these videos they're just trying to really focus on drawing the attention of alttp fans
and also maybe trying to avoid showing details that would be visible in other locations

that's what i'm thinking/hoping
i'll be pissed if the overworld is exactly the same. they better extend it like pokemon g/s/c did with johto and kanto
What would be cool is using the same overworld...
then EXPAND the corners to expose an even BIGGER world.
OooOooooOh.
