It was a huge letdown.

Where to begin...? I think what annoyed me was the fact that Nintendo's conference was only half as long as the conferences Microsoft and Sony made. But despite this, Nintendo used the time they had to fill it in with long talks with developers. Last year's E3 already had a huge blurb about Yoshi and it was really tedious to hear about it again.

I wasn't expecting to see a plethora of new IPs or games, but what annoys me with these conferences is when games make reappearances at consecutive E3s and they are focused on more than the new titles. For example, the New Mario and Luigi game had minimal screen time whereas Woolly World and Super Mario Maker had absurdly long segments. They should have spent more time on the new stuff- I forgot about the new Metroid game because of how briefly it was shown.

It just annoys me to think that the Smash Direct and the announcement of Earthbound Beginnings still has me far more excited than just about everything they announced. I will be awaiting another regular Nintendo Direct this fall.

I literally spent an two hours grinding the day before the cutoff to be a Platinum member, and I am really bummed out. I loved the Majora's Mask Spundtrack last year, and I feel like the choices are worse than the free game with Mario Kart 8. Very upset. I'll probably take DKCR3D and give it to my friend as an incentive to buy a 3DS because I already own it and only go for physical retail games.
