Rave Racer, Console Archives, Bomberman, Rebirth, and ESPECIALLY Orbitals were all great to see, but even with those the whole thing just felt so empty. Almost everything here was stuff we’ve been well aware of for ages now, so to make a whole Direct out of it all with only a handful of truly new announcements was kinda weird.
Hi-Fi Rush being absent was also a big surprise. With that getting a Switch rating last month I thought it would’ve been a no-brainer here.
Does nobody else see the giant “SAMPLE” text that they’re not at all trying to hide that’s ONLY on the Pokopia stuff? It seems to me Nintendo just didn’t want to license a third party game to use as a key card example for a short video.
