Drag x Drive showed some imagination but also looked half baked. Mario Kart looked polished but so far lacking a spark. The tech demo that they expect us to pay for looked dry and ugly and cold. This was an extremely underwhelming presentation. Where has the magic gone?

The Breath of the Wild of Pikmin please. Thanks.

Alarmo?

So far, I absolutely adore it.

The invention is off the charts but the familiar elements ground all of the new ideas in something approachable. I can't wait.

I was intrigued by the teaser video and thrilled by the reveal.

I don't see any reason at all to expect anything more than button mashing repetitiveness but those are some lovely graphics. If it's as imaginative and varied as Shredder's Revenge - better still, much more than that - then I'll give it a go.

@gcunit About six hours, I'd say.

Having already played it all the way through and hit as close to 100% as I could (there's one... um... equine mission you can't replay) I'm very tempted to play again rightaway. I don't exaggerate to say this is the one video game world I most enjoyed being inside. It's a truly fantastic intepretation of the books.

I hope it's a huge hit and a sequel - or DLC, perhaps teased by that final still image after the credits? - will come along.

My pitch is very simple: Super Mario Wonder Kart.

I have a four word pitch for the future that fills my heart with glee.

Super

Mario

Wonder

Kart.

We'll be seeing a lot of trailers and announcements with the generic 'consoles' promise instead of a fixed list, I think. At least until the Super Switch is officially announced.
