Time to update

@carlos82 sneaking in (Actually there are 4 games, but that's besides the point) sneaks back out

@DwaynesGames Nope

@CharlieGirl many animations look straight out of the 8- and 16-bit games

@Abes3 that and its DS prequel were way too reliant on touch

@Nintendancies laughs in Mario Kart

@johnedwin You never know... 2024 might be the next 2016 (people say it'd come that year despite Nintendo never saying it would, ends up releasing the following year)

@KayFiOS now you can see Samus talking about the baby on the silver screen!

Well, it would have, if it wasn't for the pesky DKC and Super Metroid on one hand and 32X on the other

@HeadPirate it's just everyone was blindsided by Nintendo's way of doing their E3 2016 presence.
It may have even beat the 2013 salt

@Bolt_Strike Ok, I may have been wrong about assuming your stance on the thing, but I look back and see some people genuinely salty about the format used as late as 2017

@Bolt_Strike where was this energy in 2013 and 2014?

They can be both. cough Dante and Vergil

@TheBigBlue have you not noticed that at least in the Switch era, every mini Direct was on an even year?

Translation: we're never going back to E3.
Remember when they said the direct at E3 was a one-off? Well, not only did they not return to the stage the following year (or since), they didn't even have a Direct at E3 2016

You know, I think this is the last time I've heard hatred for the classic Mario Party formula, ironically to be 343'd by the developers of this very game.

Speaking of 2013, it's the first year when Nintendo went pre-recorded for their E3 presentation. But that's a topic for April.

(Joker was already on a Nintendo console by the time he was announced for Smash Ultimate. Persona Q2 came out the month before the announcement in Japan)

@ModdedInkling and they end up overvaluing them as a result.
And even then, some unique Switch games (=not ports or remakes or DXs) aren't $60 (Warioware get it together is $50, Game Builder Garage and Big Brain Academy Brain vs Brain are $30, and Jump Rope Challenge is completely free

You know? This is smart.
You reveal the spinoff AFTER you have released the heavily anticipated sequel, and soon enough that it's not time for another sequel.
Icu, Ninty.

@Tyranexx to be fair to you, no amount of leaks could have predicted a Kirby's return to dreamland port, let alone a remake

@Darknilious Metroid 4 came out in 2002

@MarioBrickLayer Tommorrow is NOT Metroid Prime 1's or Fusion's 20th anniversary. That's in november.

@Baler yes, since March

@liljmoore Honestly, had they made other m in a similar vein to Dread, it could've worked. Like, a lot of the same ideas are in the latter, but were executed much, much better

If this poll was in 2013, people would probably ask where the "bring back traditional conferences" choice is

@Darknilious Stop calling Metroid Prime 4 "Metroid 4"! Geez...

@Pharmboy6 Counterpoint: Mania

@RareFan and when they're not too slow, they jump the shark so much, they ellicit a "what the hell is wrong with you" response (see the E3 2013 fiasco)

@johnvboy "Mario Kart 8 Deluxe outsells the NES. More at 11"

@jobvd one of their new ones. Diofield Chronicle, anyone? (Which is also coming to Switch)

@westman98 it wasn't called that in the E3 direct

@westman98 except marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy. Geez, you had to squint to see the subtext to know it was a cloud version in the E3 trailer

Wait a minute, I just realized something. The first game next level games is releasing as a Nintendo 1st party developer is from the same series as the overall first next level games-developped game published by Nintendo

@TheAwesomeBowser "No original Mario Kart" points at Mario Kart Live
"ThAt'S a SpInOfF" aaaand? It's more like Mario Kart than Tour wishes to be.

@Dpishere to be fair, when Nintendo bought Monolithsoft in 2007, their then-newest game was a PS2-exclusive FFVII spin-off

@cdriper it happened with Game Builder Garage, also 😂

@BrazillianCara Danganronpa trilogy+S and Big Brain academy 3 release on December 3rd

@InkIdols This isn't Brain Age, though.

@Stocksy F-Zero is already confirmed

@mariomaster96 f***, 2.8 has a 3DS game! WTF?

@FaroreAbhorsen the name clearly implies it's a SKU of V2, not an update.

The entire series is called "星のカービィ" in Japan. It's probably just "Kirby Discovery" in the west

@sanderev they did last year with the partner showcases...

@Yorumi GBA is slightly less recent than Gamecube

@eaglebob345 That one moment the original Nintendo direct was almost called "3DS New information Internet Presentation" before airing. It was a followup for the TGS conference. From a followup to a phenomenon. Go figure.

@Froid12 Metroid Prime and Metroid 4 released a day from each other

@Atariboy Shinya Takahashi literally said "We're working hard on the lastest game in the Metroid Prime series, Metroid Prime 4, which we previously announced" before showing the Dread trailer

@SlySnake0407 december 3rd is still fall...

@Maxz Now, Speed Golf IS a real sport. But it's not as crazy and out of this world as its Mushroom Kingdom counterpart https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_golf
