@Octane Wasn't planning on doing anything other than mentioning that, so no worries. There probably IS a T-rated translation for it somewhere, though. So no real F-bombs are ever necessary...

Just glad you got the hint, which was the point.

Astral Chain in the Treehouse right now. Looking like a REALLY interesting game, with unique mechanics.

Just thought of something. I noticed that Travis Touchdown was playing Ape Out at the very beginning of the NMH3 trailer. I knew there was a reason I liked that guy.

@NintendoByNature - Ah, well I bet that was thrilling then. SNES Mini was my introduction to the Mana series, and I really liked it.

This got sneaked into the Nintendo Treehouse presentation a little while ago. I can't remember having seen it in the Direct, so I figured I'd post it here for all to see:

Also, I want to share this:

And this:
Be aware of plenty of F-bombs in the first of these two videos, but it's still nice to see the enthusiasm (in my opinion), regardless...

With all the jokers that visit DK pretending they're other people, I'm not surprised the level is called Jungle Japes.

Think I got it figured out. I’ll have mowed 5 lawns by September, pulling in an extra $250. I’m putting up a pergola with concrete and doing massive brush clear, which should grab another $80. I think September will be okay, guys and gals. 😂

@HobbitGamer A pergola, or an arbor?

Was a great direct. Really good. Only thing negative for me personally was that there was too many games and I would not have the time to play them. My backlog of games will get even bigger and bigger.

We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.

So... Phil Spencer commented on the why and the how of Banjo in Smash Bros:

Also, here is the very first "The Witcher 3" comparison video. Keep in mind, that the comparison is a bit skewed, seeing as it has taken the video from the Direct, a video segment of which we don't even know if it is actually Switch footage, or some footage edited in for display purposes, like they have done with several other titles before:

@ThanosReXXX It’s definitely a pergola 😛

@ReaderRagfish - I wondered what you meant when I saw you commented something along the lines of “so many games I’ll never buy.” I’m kind of in the same boat. Been Nintendo only since Wii, and too many games has never been a problem prior to Switch. I saw enough today to possibly keep me from buying Mario Maker, and I still don’t have Crafted World. Those were two of my favorite games on WiiU, but there’s so much else I want, including DQXI. Haven’t played a game in that series since I got a free copy of Dragon Warrior for re upping my Nintendo Power subscription, but it’s calling to me. I wanted to try newer experiences with my Switch, and so far, the options are ample.

@HobbitGamer - Maybe a career change is in order? That’s good money for fun work. Well done. The vegetation doesn’t stop growing down Souff either. There really not an off season other than January, and you’d need that just to maintain your tools.

I hope Nintendo Life can give us a complete list of games announced or talked about at E3 for the Switch! Complete with links to their individual Nintendo life stories they already have.

@Octane @Alexolney you guys can make that happen, right?

I tried to tune into the Treehouse presentations this afternoon, but my work schedule post-Direct/after lunch was insane. Thankfully Nintendo uploads the individual segments, so I can catch up that way. I watched the Sword and Shield segment before going out to mow; the Wild Area looks quite fun, and Max Raids look pretty fun too. I don't know if I'll be doing that much unless they allow NPCs to battle with you though. XD Some series purists probably hate that many wild encounters aren't random, but TBH I prefer things that way. It saves time in the long run IMO. It took me a bit to track down a Bagon in my current Ultra Sun playthrough for example.

I also hope to fit in the Link's Awakening and Luigi's Mansion 3 segments this evening. I was able to tune in to both for a few minutes but wasn't able to fully watch them. I'll probably shove in the Astral Chain and Daemon X Machina segments tomorrow at some point. Here's to hoping that I can tune into the Treehouse segments more over the next couple of days.


@NEStalgia (Responding to the mention this morning) I'll probably try ESO when/if I get a PlayStation. I've heard a lot of great things about it, especially when compared to the cough new ES game that the Switch is getting. As for Fallout, I'm told that I'd like the earlier entries but probably not the more recent games so much. I've read more than the lion's share of Fallout 76 to know better than to ever bother with it. I already have enough games to play already.

I almost picked up the Wii U version of Watch Dogs until I started reading multiple reports of how buggy it was. Plus, some other feedback, while not bad, seems to indicate that some sections of the first game are particularly lackluster.

It also seems that you share some of my opinions about Stadia.

Currently playing: Pokemon Scarlet DLC, Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury (Switch)

@NintendoByNature - Five minutes in. LOVE it. Some of these sounds I haven’t heard since the NES. It seems super faithful. I can already tell it’ll be a steep challenge, but my inner ninja is ready. Good call.

@Tyranexx I believe they said Max Raids can be done with NPC partners if playing solo.

@bimmy-lee the music is beyond catchy. The sounds the gameplay its all a nod to yesteryear.. But way better. It gives shovel knight a run for its money in my opinion. Wait til you get to the 16bit portion. It's even more gorgeous and fun. All the precision and tight platforming makes it so much fun. The difficulty picks up in one portion of the game and it's toward the beginning. But then it evens out from what I recall until the end of the game. You'll enjoy every bit trust me
