@JimNorman hahah, no worries! OoT being my favorite game of all time, I felt very passionate about getting those questions..."wrong" 😂 thanks for adjusting the quiz! I really enjoyed doing it!!

@FunGuy That's blatantly incorrect information. I'm surprised even Zelda Dungeon named it a Lizalfos. That's a Geru. Totally different enemies than Lizalfos. Question 13 is just plain wrong.

I also feel cheated about the song question. You don't "learn" the Scarecrow's Song.
@JimNorman

I'm impressed with myself lol. I got 24/25, only getting the Ness one wrong.

@N00BiSH My feelings exactly. Not quite as good as the new Mario and Luigi, but not bad either.

The voice might sound better when he's not speaking full sentences. Grunts and various other sounds might be where the voice works more.

Wow! I never thought I'd see another trace memory game again, even if it's just remakes. I enjoyed the first one, and never played the one on wii, so I'll definitely be picking this up

Yes.....YES. No more New Super Mario Bros. sterile style. This is actually INSANE. This game has so much soul and personality :') Nintendo stepped up their game BIG time with these announcements. I'm so happyyy

This Nintendo Direct is INSANE. A new Princess Peach game?!!! These announcements are godlike

I would never ever ever EVER have expected Nintendo to remake SMRPG. HOLY F****** SH*************** HYYYYPE

@Agent_P Well, yes...? Sonic 06 IS a joke. It's so horrendously bad. And yes, I have actually played it.

Also, since when has 06 ever been "Adventure 3"? Not sure where you got that idea from. You're the first person I've ever seen refer to it as that. It's never been called a spiritual successor and it was never SA3 at any point during development. If it's "Adventure 3", then it's through the most shallow, generic connections imaginable lol. A HUB world and some gameplay elements doesn't make it Adventure 3.

Actually being called "Sonic Adventure 3" would make a Sonic game, well...Sonic Adventure 3 lol.

Not really a fan of the visuals tbh. The colors are way too oversaturated and graphically it looks like a 3D kickstarter game.

I have high doubts that it can possibly be better than Mania was. But at least Sega is trying? Would have preferred to see Sonic Adventure 3 though.

I'd love to see an update on Pragmata. Really interested in seeing what that game will turn out like.

Dragons Dogma 2 news should be interesting too!

Well, I was on the fence before this trailer, but this absolutely blew me f**king away. This was the kind of stuff I needed to see to get me hyped for TotK. Ganondorf, huge monsters, champions helping you and fighting alongside you, new and cool changes to villages/past locations, big underground cave, potential dungeons, new interesting looking characters...IT HAD EVERYTHING.

My only let-down was no sign of a playable Zelda. But you never know. It could still be in the game, even if it's just her accompanying you, I'll be happy

If this last trailer reveals a playable Zelda or actual dungeons then I'm sold on this game.

The new crafting mechanics looked super fun and that boosted my hype. It just needs one more big boost from this final trailer for me to get it day one

Super wholesome ♥️ Makes me happy to see people of all ages enjoying Nintendo games.

Something about elderly people enjoying and playing Wii to this day makes me really happy.

When I can watch it for free online because for the entirety of my life I never plan on giving Illumination a single cent of my hard earned cash.

I'd rather not give money to a studio to help fund more movies that are made to appeal to the lowest common denominator.

So, they changed Peach from a damsel in distress...

...to a Mary Sue with absolutely no flaws who can perform any task with perfect precision and execution. All for the sake of "being progressive" in the most generic Hollywood way possible.

No character growth to show that people can have flaws. No writing that makes you root for an underdog princess that has to BECOME a badass. No...just make the girly pink princess into an iconic "girl boss" yasss queen, slaaaaaay! 🔥🔥

Generic as it comes. This isn't even Peach. I'm now going to start calling her Princess Leech.

I'm glad it's dead. I'd rather companies release trailers or make announcements when they're ready instead of waiting for E3. It's also better for companies to not have to feel the need to prematurely announce something too, just so they would have a presence at the show.

I also hated wading through tons and tons of news articles during and after E3 just to find information on games I actually care about. Some games would get straight up buried and over shadowed by others too, and you might not even notice something was announced until a week later.

The new mechanics look like they'll be fun and add a new layer of depth to the BotW world, but I'm still not seeing anything that makes this a day one buy for me.

Mostly everything looks like it's just BotW again. Stables still there and look identical. Same Hyrule still there and looks identical, etc. I still need to see more for me to want to buy this.

I had to vote for the Japanese one for how unique it is. Sure it doesn't give you any indication about the game, but I find it very aesthetically pleasing. It reminds me of those 80's/90's japanese album covers👌

Looks cute! I love comfy, immersive games like this. I tried learning Japanese at one point so this might be fun to try out

@Anti-Matter but that's just as generic at this point. Making princess/female characters "bad-ass" who "don't need no man" and can "take care of themselves" has become such an overused trope now that's it's become the new cookie cutter blueprint for the entertainment industry.

Like, I actually find it just as cringe worthy as damsel in distress characters...if not MORE due to how forced and fabricated it is by people in suits.

Kind of sad to say that the first year was still the best year 😮‍💨

There are a ton of good switch games, but still WAY too many Wii U ports and not enough original titles. BotW wasn't an exclusive title. Even Smash Ultimate in some ways feels like Smash 4.5.

Sometimes I feel like the Switch was mostly Nintendo's (successful) attempt at rectifying their financial losses from the Wii U. I'm hoping their next console is mostly unique releases instead of ports

@Manxman64 The tracks are just lazy ports from a mobile game. They don't have the same visual fidelity as the ones originally created for MK8. Not only that, but they're not even built with MK8s anti-grav mechanic in mind either. So Ive had barely any interest in them to begin with. They feel like something a modder could have done, but WORSE to be honest.

So that's why I don't care about the tracks. But one of my biggest gripes with MK8 was the roster.

More than half the roster is babies, koopalings, and alt versions of Mario and Peach. If I can finally get the characters that should have been there from the get go, then I'll be happy to pay for them. But there's no way I'd buy the DLC for just one character. That's why I said if they start adding characters I'll be interested.

Then the DLC tracks I find lackluster are just an added "bonus". I already like MK8 and am fine with never touching the DLC tracks at all.

I had no interest in buying the DLC, but if I can buy new characters then I might consider it.

Birdo making a return is awesome. Hopefully we get like, Diddy, Funky, Pauline, or Dixie.

So......it's just BotW 2.0 as I worried.

No confirmation or footage of dungeons, more or less the same map but with things on top, the same repetitive enemies from BotW but with slight twists, etc.

My hype for this game has dwindled so much that I found it hard to even get excited for anything shown in the trailer. Also, I hated BK Nuts and Bolts and this looks like it literally ripped it off. No thanks 😮‍💨

Wow, honestly pretty cool to see Sega revive an old IP like this. I'd love to see a new Billy Hatcher game or NiGHTS.

If they're willing to bring back Samba de Amigo, then you never know!

@KateGray: Also, the final question about the timeline placement is more of just a guess rather than a definite answer. 🤣

In fact, I'd argue it's way more likely after Twilight Princess. Arbiters Grounds exists in BotW, Ganondorf's corpse in TotK is sealed in his chest where he was impaled in TP.

@KateGray: Hey uhh....the first question is wrong. Four Swords Adventures had full voice acting in the Japanese version.

There was an exclusive minigame called Tetra Trackers where Tetra was fully voiced.

Not that I was expecting the game to be THAT much darker than BotW, but I am a bit disappointed that it's apparently the exact same rating level. I was hoping for some scarier creatures or darker elements. Guess we'll have to wait and see.

Aonuma better not have lied when he said it would be darker!

We don't need any more "Toon"-styled Zelda games. There are more games in its art style than there are not:

Wind Waker
Four Swords
Minish Cap
Four Swords Adventures
Phantom Hourglass
Spirit Tracks
Triforce Heroes

Do we REALLY need more games in that art style? I'd prefer to see another game in like, Twilight Princess or OoT/MM style.

Chris Pratt's voice is just so BAD. Not a fan of Peach's either, but it's not terrible I guess. But making her "badass fighting princess" is the most Americanized cliché thing they could have done to her character. Lame.

Not to rain on anyone else's excitement, but in my opinion, all I got from this trailer is that the movie is going to be generic. Full of lame tired jokes, clichés, and loud, horrible, overly orchestral versions of classic Mario songs. All the characters being voiced by celebrities was already a red flag, but this confirms to me it's nothing more than a souless cash grab.

Doesn't surprise me considering Illumination is behind it. I thought Nintendo's involvement would save it from being too "Hollywood", but I guess not.

The hug was cute, but the kiss was a little sus 👀 lol

@YoshiF2 A new "X" entry would be nice. It's almost been 20 years since X8. I enjoyed it a lot as a kid. Classic Mega Man has so many entries now that it would be nice for X to get some love again!

Wow! Here's hoping the next game is so buggy and glitchy that it can only run for 30 minutes at a time before crashing! I'm sure people will still buy it, defend it, and praise it. Can't wait!

Keep up the good work Pokefans! The quality can only lessen with each game now! We did it!

The oversized yellow jacket looks really out of place. The design gets kind of ruined by it to be honest.

Honestly, I feel like hearing the Mario characters voiced by Hollywood celebrities is going to be extremely cursed.

I don't think I'll be able to get over that.

This was a hard one, but I went with Japanese. I liked how it shows all the "mercenaries" on the cover. Europe was a pretty close second though.

@Cia Well, I won't keep my hopes up too much out of fear of disappointment, but I truly hope you're right. I hope they're just withholding a lot of information right now and are saving it for a TotK-focused Direct or something.

I want this to be an amazing game! One that surpasses the original BotW in almost every aspect. The Zelda series is my favorite game series of all time so I want new entries to be memorable and fun! I REALLY enjoyed the original BotW, but I didn't want the next mainline entry to be a repeat, that's all.

I think my excitement dropping for this game is more so from the drip-feed information xD I guess we'll just have to wait and see!

@Cia I mean...they still haven't shown anything that really makes it feel any different. The sky gimmick isn't all that special, especially considering Skyward Sword exists.

My point is that nothing shown off so far sets it apart from BotW that much. It even takes place in the same Hyrule. If the next trailer doesn't showcase something more unique, my hype is out the window. I won't be able to stand playing TotK if I have to essentially fight against hordes of Bokoblins, Moblins, and Lizalfos again. I also don't want to deal with breakable weapons, Koroks, and shrine puzzles...AGAIN.

These trailers that last 50 seconds that showcase barely anything aren't making me more excited for this game. For a game that's been so long in development, you'd think they would have more to show by now? Like, how am I supposed to be excited for this anymore?

"It's not gonna be the same. It's just impossible."
How do you even know that? In the like, 4 years we've known about this game, nothing noteworthy has been shown.

If I'm being honest, this doesn't do much to excite me. As time goes on, my excitement for this game dwindles more and more. You can only show Link diving off a cliff into the sky so many times...

It also looks so similar to BotW that it comes across as a glorified DLC expansion. At this point, dungeons are the deal breaker for me. I'm not even going to play it if it's just BotW 2.0; full of shrine puzzles, Koroks, Bokoblins and Lizalfos. The sky gimmick doesn't do it for me and that really seems to be the selling point unfortunately. If the next trailer doesn't show off something that REALLY sets it apart from BotW, then I think all my hype will be gone.

@victordamazio Umm...I actually said: "If they DO try something new, it ends up being terrible or half-baked"

So no, I'm not "totally wrong" because you just said exactly what I did lol.

@victordamazio "BOTW DIDNT MAKE THE OPEN WORLD GENRE" Why do people keep saying this as if it's some sort of counter-argument?

Pardon my language, but no sh*t. But something can still be a blatant rip-off. It's not like I would call BotW a rip-off of GTA just because they're both open-world. But Sonic Frontiers is an OBVIOUS rip-off of BotW.

-Nothing but nature, old ruins and robots everywhere
-Nothing but piano music, even composed the same way as BotW.
-Landscape and visual style similar to BotW. Deserts, grasslands, etc.
-Completing random environmental puzzles by the "Not-Koroks".

That's just some examples. As more and more about the game is shown, the similarities keep piling up.

This is so hilariously shameless. How does the IP even exist at this point? Who is still buying these games...and why?? The quality ranges from mediocre to hot garbage and they haven't done anything original in the last decade+. If they DO try something new, it ends up being terrible or half-baked and if they don't, they just make a shameless Nintendo rip off.

I legitimately don't understand. This is just The Legend of Sonic: Speed of the Wild.

@KindofaBigDeal I disagree. Dataminers are unsung heroes imo. They just want to know what the product they're purchasing is, seeing how companies don't like telling you.

I'd rather know what DLC I'm buying before purchasing a season pass. If the tracks don't interest me, I'd rather not buy the whole pack. Same with characters in fighting games. If you think it's a "big deal" that you know what you're getting, then why don't you go grocery shopping with your eyes closed? I'll never understand the idea that you can be "spoiled" about what you're buying.

Sure, the reveal can be exciting, but I don't think it's worth getting angry over. To me, it makes sense that someone would want to know what they're getting before-hand seeing how they're spending their hard earned cash on it.

Lol, he was afraid people weren't going to like humanoid pokemon? Guess he never heard of "furries" before.

Before I watched the video, it was 100% looking like he was going downstairs. Anyone selecting otherwise watched the video first and is lying lmao.

The art is trash and the perspective makes no sense at all. Even after watching it, it looks like Mario is going downstairs and "King Koopa" is at the top of them. It's not "obviously" upwards at all lol.

@victordamazio Yea...but I'm not arguing that it's good that it's censored, I'm saying that it's good there's a censored MODE.

I hate censorship but I still see this mode as a win considering the entire game could have been censored instead. The option for a "non-sexy" mode is such a non-problem. People being upset over this is like people being upset over games including an easy mode. Just don't use it lol

I don't see how anyone could be upset over this option being included. I think a lot of people are misinterpreting the point of this mode.

Considering the switch is a portable system, some people may want to play the game in public but don't want someone to see Bayonetta showing off her butt lol. I bet this option was designed with Japanese people in mind considering how much public transportation they use.

Meanwhile, MK8 still has one of the worst rosters in MK history. Wish we would have just gotten MK9 rather than ported scraps from Tour.
