If the 3DS can get another amazing Fire Emblem game then the Wii U can get something Metroid. I prolly sound bitter but I own a Wii U and 3DS. The 3DS has hit PS4 status aka it will continue to sell like crazy for whatever reason. I'm glad 3DS only users aren't crying anymore and arent worried anymore. But still... This Direct was so 3DS packed it became annoying. Thank you Xenoblade Chronicles X and Splatoon

But let's be real here. The Wii U has a jam packed year already. There was serious doubt about the 3DS's 2015.

That's actually Nintendo's biggest problems imo, they can't seem to balance game releases for both consoles equally. Understandably, there's only so much they can do with one IP before they decide that's enough (which most people seem to forget that for as much milking Nintendo is guilty of they at least don't spam the same games more than once per console (sometimes)). Which is why Nintendo needs more 3rd Party, as they can lighten the load.

Just some random loser who loves a variety of things.

Part of the issue is that the 3DS is powerful enough to handle rather complex games. With previous Nintendo handhelds, they didn't require nearly as much effort as the 3DS did.

So Nintendo has to split efforts on big 3D games between the Wii U and 3DS.

Anyone else think that the new Fire Emblem, while it looks amazing, is a salvaged project from SMT x Fire Emblem and that the latter is dead?

The last proper details we heard of The Last Guardian were from before the announcement of SMT x FE, so that's not possible.

Yes, but Team Ico hasn't announced another game since, and we did originally see some gameplay.

SMT X FE was pretty much just a concept, and it's developers very much seem to have moved on.

It really isn't. They cost like $4 and most people already have at least one.

Lol not even close...

IntSys is busy. Last time they were busy, they released 6 games in 2 calendar years. Keep your pants on.

I actually think that the 3ds one is going to be a prequel or spinoff to the SMT X Fire Emblem based upon it being called FE: if in japan. There was a SMT: if game.

SMT x FE seems just as dead Tekken X Street Fighter*, meaning it isn't dead, just that information is being withheld until a later date.
I bet most people forget Tekken X Street Fighter was still thing after the crossover hype died after the mess that was Street Fighter X Tekken.

*Tekken X Street Fighter is not the same game as Street Fighter X Tekken, as this will use a Tekken fighting style rather than Street Fighter's. No idea what's taking them so long though.

Can we never mention SMT x FE again? That game never was, never has, or never will be.

I think it is pretty big deal, as someone who does not currently have a 3DS but is a little tempted thinks it's incredibly cheap by Nintendo. When I buy electronics I want everything to be in the box so I can use it without having to buy additional accessories.

No they don't. The fraction of people who double dip on a console is small. Most people buying the n3DS are either selling their old ones or buying the system for the first time.

That means they either have to sell their old system w/o an A/C Adapter (which is a major reduction in value), or buy a new A/C adapter.

And it's not $4, it's $10. While that may not seem like much relative to the 200 dollars the system costs, it's an additional cost passed onto the consumer, and makes the system less attractive.

If it helps, I jumped in on the N3DS, and I brought the additional charger. Now, after 50 hours of Fire Emblem Awakening, I know the right choice was made.

Nintendo's on a roll with these things lately. Everything they showed was fairly awesome and there was a looooooot of stuff.

I'm pretty pleased. Between the NA and the JPN direct I've got a ton of games to play. I'm more upset that I have to hunt down a MM n3ds preorder. I'm not too concerned about the Wiiu as I think that there are more small games on the way that haven't been announced. I also think Xenoblade is on the way sooner than we think. Nintendo loves to wait till the last second to announce a release date.

I'm pleased with the Direct. It announced a lot of new 3DS content and informed us of the system's lineup for the first half of 2015. Plenty of Wii U stuff too, as that system already had a lineup for the entire year minus release dates.

@Blast The best part is that all of the 3DS games shown in the Direct minus Fire Emblem will be out before E3, meaning Nintendo will have to do this all over again for the 2nd half of the year! Time to piss off even more Wii U only owners

Okay, here are my thoughts on what was discussed:
The new Fire Emblem was a nice little surprise, though it seems as if SMTXFE is still currently unknown with it's status. Xenoblade Chronicles X looks beautiful. Captain Toad's amiibo support is a bit...disappointing. I'll get some of the Mario amiibos, but really just for collection purposes because I'm not entirely sure if I'm getting Mario Party 10. Puzzles and Dragons Mario Edition coming with the original was a good idea, and Wii games being downloadable was also nice...now if we could just those damn N64 and DS games already! Fire Emblem characters appearing in Codename: S.T.E.A.M. is a nice little treat, though I'm not really interested in Codename: S.T.E.A.M. Splatoon's Hub looks good, and when it was announced that Tingle would be playable in Hyrule Warriors, I just started laughing. The New 3DS I'm HOPEFULLY going to get on launch day, same with Majora's Mask 3D. Also, there's a new Rythmn Heaven game, which is cool. I'm definitely getting Xenoblade Chronicles 3D, Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate looks interesting (haven't played any of the Monster Hunter titles.), I'm interested in what Project Treasure is, and honestly I was surprised to see that we didn't get any info on Wooly World or Mewtwo in Smash. Those're my thoughts on everything.

There is nothing here...except for the stuff I just typed...

Then why are you whining about the direct not having enough Wiiu titles?

The Harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. When the going gets tough, the tough gets going.
