The 3DS is amazing! A new Zelda and Metroid is everything I wanted!

I'm excited for this. I just hope there is online multiplayer so that the game has replay value. Star Fox games are known for being pretty short in length.

7:40 AM? Whatever. I'm hyped!

What is the amiibo support for this game?

What is this "secret game" that Bill Trinen spoke of?

This release date is odd. I'm curious if Mother 3 will be featured in the Nintendo World Championship. They're doing a speed run of The Legend of Zelda, so why not.

Oh man, I'm going to have to buy it now. -_-

I knew that Next Level Games wasn't working on a Mario sports game. This makes me more excited for E3!

Predictions
-Rhythm Tengoku Best Plus details
-Fire Emblem If details
-Animal Crossing Happy Home Designer release date
-Yoshi's Woolly World release date
-3rd Party 3DS Games details

I'm shocked that this game has already surpassed Yooka-Laylee's funding.

I love F-Zero, but I understand that the series does not sell well anymore. I won't mind the absence of a new F-Zero if they bring Climax and X Expansion to the Wii U VC.

Release the Super FX games, Nintendo! Otherwise, remake them for 3DS!

Seriously, they're going to play old NES games?!?! This is 2015, Nintendo. Promote the Wii U games.

I'm okay with this. Iwata is probably continuing to work with DeNA.

I will probably look at the Square Enix announcements, but I'm pretty disappointed in Kingdom Hearts. The series has nothing to do with Disney anymore.

I have no interest in playing Mario Maker at Best Buy. Sorry, Nintendo.

QOL is apparently confirmed not to show up at E3 2015, but we should expect it to launch the first half of 2016. I think Nintendo's smartphone app is a good first step to enter China because creating new hardware is expensive.

China is a huge market, but Nintendo is still developing other hardware: QOL and NX. They have a lot to deal with right now.

What happened to QOL? That thing is releasing the first half of 2016.

There are at least 8 games with (temp) in the title. >_>

I actually appreciate Nintendo not telling us their DLC plans. I enjoy the core content more.

Splatoon is screaming for Metroid DLC. Outfit your inkling with the varia suit, turn into a morph ball, explore a norfair map... just wait.

I predict there will be a new Metroid exclusive to the New 3DS releasing this holiday. Nintendo needs a reason for people to buy the new hardware.

Mighty No 9 raised $4 million, right? Let's see what happens with this Kickstarter. There's still 46 days left! First day of E3 2015 lol.

@3dsgeek333
This game is targeted for Xbox One as well, but I get what you're saying. Rare is back!

F-Zero Big Blue music playing on the eShop now!
Amiibo Tap is pretty nice actually. It's like a boss-rush mode for certain games.

Let's hope characters outside Fire Emblem are compatible. Link, Shulk, and Pit perhaps?

I was kind of hoping for support of non-Splatoon amiibo. Maybe they'll have an announcement.

Mario Sunshine HD is a no-brainer. Nintendo, where is it? I don't know, maybe it's being remade for the 3DS...

Nintendo has been releasing amiibo waves on the same day as big game releases. Perhaps we will see Xenoblade X release the same day as Dark Pit and Palutena in July...

I definitely need practice with 200cc. I can't believe that I need to use the brake. The speed is fine, but the turns are extra slippery. Selecting better kart handling stats doesn't help.

The more I wait, the less excited I am... This announcement is surprising though. There had better be a release date. Is this Direct only for North America?

@Iggly
I agree with your idea of Four Swords Adventures. I never got to play that game.

Does anyone else think we might get Four Swords Adventures on 3DS next year? I might be the only one... Grezzo made Four Swords for the 25th anniversary, so maybe Grezzo will make Four Swords Adventures for the 30th anniversary. I think it makes sense considering the game is unplayable at this point without using the original hardware and accessories.

The new tracks have been great, but I'm not crazy about more MK8 DLC. The developers can't risk delaying MK9 in the future.

Sega, Capcom, and Bandai Namco are supporting the virtual console, so maybe we'll see some of these classics.

I think there has been a good amount of DLC and 200cc is great. I can wait for Mario Kart 9 in Nov 2017.

The new guitar button layout might be nice if black notes are top and white notes are bottom. I could never reach between the end notes before lol.

Such a coincidence that this was discovered a week before the release date...
I don't trust many video game rumors anymore.

This game is overwhelming in every way.

I only expect maybe 2 or 3 new Wii U game announcements at E3 2015. Nintendo is sitting on a bunch of finished games right now but is just staggering the releases to buy more time.

I think Nintendo's pricing is fair. Nintendo uses DLC to extend the life of its games and fill in release gaps.

I was kind of expecting this a lot sooner actually, but it looks like they are going all in with the marketing of toys and anime. Hopefully it gets popular.

On the bright side, there are a lot of controller options.

I appreciate all of the DLC, but the Wii U always gets delays. Half of the games from E3 2014 will be at E3 2015 again.

Explain to me why Europe gets Woolly World first among ANY region?

I don't care for this series, but obviously MP10 will sell at least 1 million copies.

Apparently Europe is getting a new Inazuma Eleven game on March 27. There has been no coverage on this game, so THERE HAS TO BE a Nintendo Direct before this date.

Hopefully we get a presentation the week after Mario Party 10. I would really like to know more release dates.

I agree. I think most people just want a handheld that is powerful enough to support Nintendo's entire back catalog of games. There should be a single operating system so that ports can be made very easily and software droughts can be shortened.
