This direct just confirms the idea that the switch is nearly done. Most games announced were remasters and the big release is a 2D side scroller.

@blindsquarel Super Mario Wonder... not a fan of the title yet...

@blindsquarel That Peach one was confirmed for Switch next year so we at least know that they're supporting it 'til next year.
Plus, I feel like with this MO the next one might have a shadow drop of Wind Waker and TP.
Pretty bad Direct in my eyes 'cause I've never been a fan of Mario.
MGS and Batman, I'll get though.

@TeaCatherine No, please don't, I don't want to be the giver of redundant gifts again!

@blindsquarel
Well, it's time for me to build my PS5 games with a lot of 3rd party kids games. 😊

@Owl1
I personally prefer DDR A3 on Switch than just dance.

@Scooby-Doo Sorry, you know how much I prefer handheld.

@Anti-Matter ya.

Did you like the new Mario?

@blindsquarel weren't those Zelda reveals somethin', I can't wait for the waiting one.

@TeaCatherine It's still quite impolite, so far I've spent something like £50 on redundant gifts in the last 2 years alone. You could at least play them.

@Scooby-Doo Wait, £50? What else?

@Owl1
That new 2D Mario game?
I don't like the old live system which you can get Game Over for running out of Mario multiple lives + the time limits that put you under pressure. 😟
I personally prefer 2D platformer games by 3rd party developers with no multiple lives, no game over screen, no time limit.
I'm not patient enough to play 2D platformer games with under pressure.

I only interested by Super Mario RPG HD, new Super Princess Peach game so far.

@TeaCatherine P3P, Batman, Metal Gear. It all adds up.

I missed the direct

I can't believe I got the hours mixed, I had to recap everything quickly

At least there was nothing that noteworthy, except maybe Star Ocean 2 and MGS.

Between things like vampire survivors (whut) and silent hope tier games and downright showing us that hot wheels exists, it really felt like they had nothing to show and they filled these 30 minutes with big old whatever

Not a soul is talking about how Nintendo just casually said “oh and we are adding quality of life changes to Luigi’s Mansion Dark Moon (Luigi’s mansion 2) that we are putting on the switch next year. Onto the next announcement!” That was such a power move on Nintendo’s part. 3 Mario announcements in a row and a giant one at the end to shut up those on social media who kept pestering for a new Mario. “You want a new Mario? What about this remake? And a brand new peach game? How about a Luigi’s Mansion 2 port? And a new 2D Mario that isn’t called “New Super Mario Bros”!?”

Nintendo just pulled a super Mario.

@Scooby-Doo Yeah, forgot about P3P, sorry.
@ComfyAko Yeah, pretty meh. It had plenty of stuff other people liked but not many things appealed to me.

@TeaCatherine
I think the Peach one will be a duel release, along with Dark Moon. I’m with you on the Zelda games coming although I’ve been saying that every direct the past few years.

@Owl1
Nintendo had me hyped up for Zelda dlc and then all they gave was disappointment. Kinda the theme of this direct thought.

The new name for the Mario game is rough, but I don’t blame Nintendo. It’s hard to follow up creative names like New Super Mario Bros U.

@TheBigBlue
Wait, we will get Luigi Mansion 2 HD on Switch?
My 3DS version is still not finished yet.

@Anti-Matter yes! It’s not coming until next year however, so you have time to finish the 3DS version!

@ComfyAko
The direct wasn’t great. Lots of remasters and 1/4 of it taken up by Pikmin 4. Because we haven’t had that as a main feature for the last 2 directs or anything.
