@RushDawg I'm not trying to sound like a nerd here, but there was actually only one 'Nintendo Direct' presentation in April of last year, which was entirety devoted to the 'Nintendo Switch 2', whereas the direct that was focused on the original 'Nintendo Switch' actually took place on March 27th of that year. Hopefully that makes sense!
i thought it was a really good direct overall!! in regards to what games which made me the happiest that were shown during today's Nintendo Direct: Partner Showcase, they were in the following order!!
super Bomberman Collection, pragmata, paranomanasight: the mermaid's curse, kyoto xanadu, fallout 4: anniversary edition, monster hunter stories 3: twisted reflection, final fantasy vii rebirth, resident evil requiem, the elder scrolls iv oblivion remastered, indiana jones and the great circle, orbitals, and the adventures of eillot: the millennium tales!!
my only real issue with today's nintendo direct partner showcase is something really specifc, that being i especially wanted to see four games in particular in the direct, those four games being professor layton and the new world of steam, borderlands 4, elden ring: tarnished edition, and yoshi and the mysterious book!! but hey, i'm sure that they could all show up in the next nintendo direct, so i'm not that upset!!
and to be fair, yoshi and the mysterious book is a first party game being published (and most likely developed too!) by nintendo, so it wouldn't really make that much sense to showcase a first party game in a nintendo direct devoted to thrid party games!!
I can't even say I'm surprised at this point. Of course, I'm saddened that people may have to end up losing their jobs, but as somebody who's not really been to GAME in a long time, watching that retailer go through its demise is simply bleak and depressing.
@Anti-Matter You make a rather good point there. I'd rather not have to think about an innocent and cutesy children's game possibly causing distress to a young child like that. Even though I myself was a young child at the time of the game's release, I was never scared by the game. Now that I'm almost an adult, I still think this game is rather cute and harmless overall.
(Oh, and it's worth pointing out that I didn't ever get a chance to play this game as a child, and I still haven't played it as an older person either.)
@the_beaver It's so obvious that the person who's made the comment you originally replied to simply wishes to use so called "rage bait" to their advantage, and you on the other hand are simply admitting the cold hard truth. No other Nintendo console has ever had this amount of great third party games this soon after their original release.
Am I one of the very few people who actually seems to enjoy any of the games in the Mama franchise? I bought this game on my birthday this year, and I eagerly can't wait to play it. :3
I'm honestly surprised that Nintendo themselves weren't the ones who developed the remakes. I can't wait to buy Another Code: Recollection sometime soon!

Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition
It's got to be Europe. It's not even up for debate.

Re: Nintendo Expands Switch Online's N64 Library With Two Classic Platformers
This is seriously super solid news! I think this is the first time that Rayman 2's had a re-release since Rayman 3D at the 3DS's launch back in 2011!!

I'm so glad to see Metroid Prime 4 doing so well in my home country! I seriously didn't think it'd debut in the top five at all!
