Topic: Nintendo Direct 3/8/18 Predictions and Hopes!

SMASH BROS.
HOLY ****
SMASH BROS!

I can’t believe it. I thought it might be a Splatoon 1 port and was really bummed but when it went dark I actually screamed.

No Pikmin 4, someone will get banned. The next user that posts in this thread!

You let it happen Nintendo...

I knew it was Smash the instant they left Splatoon for another seemingly Splatoon announcement. Reminded me of the Rosalina trailer that tried to throw you off, haha

@Octane not fair, I wanted Pikmin 4 as much as you. I say the one after me

The Splatoon 2 stuff looks great. OMG my dream was granted.

Well I must say, that Direct was pretty phenomenal. I'm surprised at the absence of Fire Emblem, but freaking SMASH BROS was confirmed for Switch this year! And Octopath finally got a release date! Soooo happy

Pretty awesome. My Blizzard prediction was dead wrong lol but I'll take all the other stuff I guess haha

@MisterPi Alright, goodbye @-Green-

Not bad actually.

Over half of the games I have already played on my Wii U or PlayStation 4, but it’s a good Nintendo Direct if you didn’t/don’t have the latter two platforms.

I will definitely get Mario Tennis Aces, that’s for sure!

@Octane It’s okay. I’m happy today.

I am so pumped for Crash, Splatoon 2 Octo DLC, and FLIPPING SMASH SWITCH, it looks like Smash Deluxe and not Smash 5, but regardless of which one it ends up being I am so hyped right now!

Btw my Profile pic shows my reaction to it XD

Direct was okay, I understand they have to save some stuff for E3 so hope is still alive for some things I'm more interested in.

I liked this direct a lot tbh.

I was a tad underwhelmed by it (only because of the ports, there good games but still ports) but that ending... this might be the best non E3 direct😂

I thought this Direct was the best one in a long time! Some of the announcements blew my away! Nintendo’s year already looks PHENOMENAL.

The fact that we're getting Octopath Traveler AND Smash Brothers AND Okami AND Dark Souls AND Crash Bandicoot AND a good Mario Sports game all in one year is simply mindboggling.

It was alright. I may get the Splatoon DLC, depending on the amount of content.

I have mixed views on the Direct. Some of the announcements were fantastic like Splatoon 2 content, Captain Toad and Smash but I was disappointed that both Hyrule Warriors Definitive Edition and Mario Tennis Aces were both after April meaning the only April game so far is Labo.

I thought that "recycle" symbol inside the WiiU game cases indicated that the plastic case was recyclable.
Apparently not - it's the games themselves that were recyclable!!
The only thing that could have been remotely exciting - a new WarioWare - turned out being not just a port but a compilation of ports. Oh my, what a fraud has Nintendo been in the last 3 years.
Ports and cardboard - a sad picture of our times - minimum effort at maximum prices.

I rewatched the Dark Souls part of the Direct and honestly, as someone who played the original game A LOT, it looks more like a port than a remaster...

The floor textures look cleaner, but lacks detail, and the whispy white puff of cloud when the enemy was defeated looked really odd to me, as well as a hint of noticeable slowdown.

I hope the PS4 version is significantly better than this one.
