@Tyranexx Here's my Discord Heavyarms55#1475 Throw me an invite. It will be much easier to coordinate raids! If @Eel has one too, it would work out super well. I was considering making a Discord server for Pokemon Go for this website and dropping in the forums, but I don't think they'd be cool with that.
I thought it was awesome! They trolled me so hard at the start. I thought we were getting new Xenoblade content and instead it's Smash. Far as I'm concerned Xenoblade is a far better series so Smash should be honored to host her, but I know the "I hate anything vaguely anime" crowd on this site is already losing their minds. I'll be curious how many people I trigger just by saying how much more I like Xenoblade than Smash. (Not that I hate Smash, I like it, it's a good party game. But it doesn't hold my interest that well beyond that.)
Then we got that new tactical RPG from Square Enix? Oh that has me pretty darn interested! It looks like Octopath Traveller meets Fire Emblem and I freaking LOVE that idea! And the different story paths? I super dig that! I hope they're real fleshed out to give loads of replayability!
Mario Golf might be the 3rd ever golf game I buy, after Golf Story and Golf with your Friends. It looks real fun! Like, it surprised me how fun it looked as I normally zone out when anything sports related comes on screen. But then we have the RPG elements and even it looks like some platforming? Very interesting!
I was hoping we'd get the other HD remasters of the LoZ titles we already got on Wii U too, but Skyward Sword looks like a lot of fun! I have wanted to play it since Chuggaconroy did an LP of it on YouTube a while back, but never got around to it.
And then the big one, Splatoon 3! I nearly started jumping up and down, I yelled so loud I'm surprised I didn't piss off the neighbors! It's just knowing that it's coming, but that's enough for now!
I thought this Nintendo Direct was honestly awesome! It's been a long time coming, but I really like the large variety of first and 3rd party games coming to the system. And so many genres, I feel like there must be something for almost everyone this time. But it's the internet in 2021, so I'm sure there will be a crowd of foaming at the mouth haters throwing fits because it wasn't exactly verbatim what they wanted.

That Direct was the thing I needed after a not so great afternoon. Splatoon 3, also I'm kind of excited for the Plants vs. Zombies game, played one of the games with my nephew on his Xbox, and it was fun. Will say, while I'm not into DC Super Hero Girls (not into super heroes), I was kind of surprised to see Nintendo publishing it. I'd assume WB Games or something would publish that.
@TheJGG Getting dinner done before the direct failed, so it became what I watched during dinner tonight.
@Sunsy Ok I'm going to say this, that plants vs zombie game is nothing like the first two GW games there going to feel janky waky and overall very buggy (This is the ps4 ver. btw) so the switch one is proabably
going to run like crap, also you don't even have to be good at the game anymore its whoever jumps and shoots the most wins, plus the game is dead, so dead they had to fill every game with bots I would find a
whole team of them, then ea cut the game off after less then a year bc it wasn't working the way they want it to, don't even get me started on the battle pass its the worst, oh and there is also micro transactions yaaaaaa. its a really bad game and I would stay away from it, this is coming from somewon
who played both part one and 2 though its whole lifespan (Btw Gw2 is doing better then this game) It was good at first, but once you start seeing all the stuff below its a very crappy game and this switch port is nothing but a cash crab.
sorry for this being so long LOL.

I watched the Direct this morning but mostly i quickly quit from watching the Direct from Youtube Nintendo Switch when i sensed something rated 18+ things before even i saw further.
Only Miitopia HD and Mario items for ACNH got my attention.
@Heavyarms55 I do have a discord account. I don't really use it much though! Mine is: abgarok#8174. I think I do have you added, as well.
The direct was ok, there were some interesting announcements, though not much that appealed to me personally, unfortunately. The Smash reveal did indeed caught me by surprise though, I didn't see it becoming that.
@Snatcher I'll probably take microtransactions with a grain of salt, as the trailer and article says "Complete Edition." While I don't mind buying a cosmetic for my character in a F2P game, I'll most likely won't do it in a full retail game anyway as I already paid for it. Difference being one is free and the other is paid.
I'll keep the rest in mind and wait to see gameplay on it, or even buy it when it's on sale. Thanks for sharing your experience with it. Didn't know it was different than the Garden Warfare game I played with my nephew.
Don't worry about it being long, I think I've read longer anyway, lol.
@Eel Well, I sent you a request either way. Hopefully we can get times for raids a little more easily there.
I think it's entirely possible they waited for an XC2 character on purpose because they wanted to do Pyra/Mythra from the start - and if they had done that back then, it would be a pretty major spoiler at that time. But now it's pretty fair game for a game that's been out this long.
@Anti-Matter Umm what? There wasn't a single thing on there remotely near 18+. I know you don't like that kind of thing, but this was extremely safe. I'd have no qualms about showing this to a bunch of elementary school kids, in school. It's that safe.
I mean, it's fine if you don't like things and all, but to say there was anything 18+? Like, what? I don't have any idea what you're referring to.
In other news though, I absolutely called the working Mario warp pipes! I said that weeks ago and we got them!

@Heavyarms55
There was.
It already mentioned from the beginning of Direct.
The age rating said very clearly.
When i sensed something looks like rated 18+ games (Not cartoonish, dark theme looking), whether they are really 18+ games or not, i immediately quit from watching, wait for several seconds until i thought it was safe to watch again then i continue watching the Direct.
I rely on the live comments to tell what kind of games the peoples saw.
Oh, also i quit watching for a while for really really uninteresting games such as Star Wars, Smash Bros new characters, etc.
Now I have fall guys on the ps4 but I just love playing any were. So I will get fall guys on the switch, just wished they showed how it looked on the switch instead on pc footage.

@Heavyarms55
Different topic.
Did you still play Japanese 3DS games ?
I saw from Japanese 3DS eshop last time there was a huge Discount (up to 90% until 1st March 2021) for Level-5 games, especially Yokai Watch games. The price was mostly 500 Yen during huge sale.
I played Yokai Watch Blaster White Dog Squad USA and Yokai Watch 3 Tempura Japan recently but for Tempura 3, i was a bit confused with Battle system as i have never played mainline Yokai Watch games on 3DS.
Finally watched the Direct a little bit ago! I was able to remain (mostly) unspoiled. Most of my impressions are in my response to Heavyarms55.
Honestly, the DC Super Hero Girls game would've caught my eye if it wasn't clearly aimed at a Tween audience and used the adult characters. If I recall, isn't it based on an animated show?
@ThanosReXXX Duly noted. Glad that I'm in your good graces!
@Heavyarms55, @Eel Thanks for the remote raid invites earlier! Unfortunately I was away from my phone and didn't see the notifications until way too late. It was a food prep night, so I was trying to clean up my kitchen from that, do dishes, and get everything else in order before watching the Direct!
@Heavyarms55 Overall, the Direct was quite decent! I liked a lot of what I saw, and I agree that there's something for about everyone. Any haters/whiners just want something to complain about lol.
While I don't need most of the titles on offer, these announcements definitely stood out:
Project Triangle Strategy: The big all-new reveal for me! The art style reminded me of Octopath Traveler out of the gate (Own it but still need to play it); I can definitely get on board with Octopath x Fire Emblem! I love how it appears every decision you make can affect the story, adding to replayability! I've never played a Final Fantasy Tactics game, but I've seen this compared to that.
Skyward Sword HD: I 100%ed the game on the Wii, but I will definitely pick it up again!....Probably not day one though unless there's a really tempting pre-order bonus that shows up. It's a fun Zelda title and very much worth revisiting. It isn't my favorite in the series, but that's in part because so many other titles set the bar so high! Also, I want those Joy-Cons!
More BotW 2 news later this year: I'm glad they gave an update on development, and honestly I'm fine with the game likely drifting into 2022. Look what happened with the first game as a result! Besides, it gives me more time to get around to the first game's DLC and Age of Calamity!
Pyra/Mythra in Smash: I was trolled hard too. But in my case, I'm kinda relieved lol. I haven't got around to playing XC2 yet and was worried it was another expansion announcement similar to Torna. I was afraid of needing to play more catch-up! I'm glad for Smash fans. I'm not a huge Smash fan personally; I don't dislike the series, but like with most fighting games it just doesn't hold my attention for very long.
The rest of it was full of mostly games that I knew people would be happy to see. Some of them brought a smile to my face, but there wasn't anything else I absolutely had to have. It was definitely worth the watch!
Sent you a Discord friend request. I'm Landroid91#3222. It's actually why my Switch username is what it is.
@Anti-Matter I figured you'd be stoked by the Miitopia announcement! I thought I recalled reading somewhere that you enjoyed the game on 3DS!
