Nothing shown really excites me so far

 

[diffusionx]

what would Gunpei Yokoi say about this exactly?

Oh great a Fatal Frame game with swimsuits removed outside Japan I'm guessing

Him seeing this after they murdered him for making it:

 

[Robb]

Talking flowers hardware and Virtual Boy hardware.. Nintendo is such a crazy/whimsical company.

 

[Dacvak]

Okay nobody had a Virtual Boy remake on their bingo card. What the hell lmao.

I want one.

 

[Jack Videogames]

Oh no PW2

There goes my year

Fake ED: Suika, Nintendo wins the console war (not)

 

[Dr. Wilkinson]

It has been pretty bad tbh, these are all small games or side games, little add ones, extra things. 40th anniversary for the biggest video game character of all time is a 2d Yoshi game lol

I actually thought the anniversary announcements were pretty good. Like I said, it all comes down to personal taste. I'm a sucker for Yoshi games. Woolly World is all-time GOAT.

 

[Salmonboy]

Fruit simulator

 

[RetroGamingUK]

Ah, we're well into the indie lull

 

[Jsisto]

Is this a joke?

 

[Stafford]

Who was it that said this was going to be a big one? Because well.....

Unless what we've seen so far is considered big by people.

 

[Dr. Suchong]

Poor old Gunpei, at least he doesn't have to relive that flop all over again.

You have no soul.

[Davevil]

if you don't care about DQ, Yoshi, Mario, Mario Tennis... then no doubt you hate life right now. This thing still has 20 minutes left and it's like top 3 best Directs ever for me so far. It all comes down to personal taste, of course.

my god your tastes

 

[nbkicker]

Seriously 45 min of trash so far even a release date of Metroid not saving this

 

[MayauMiao]

If Nintendo is smart, at least allow all the Virtua Boy games to have normal color option.

 

[Fermbiz]

I'm out...

 

[Robb]

Metroid! Here we go!

 

[Jinzo Prime]

Metroid Time!

 

[Mownoc]

Very poor direct so far, I assume metroid prime 4 is going to show up?

 

[Jack Videogames]

Why are those fruits in an uterus

 

[Touch fuzZy. get BizZay]

prime 4...not?

edit: date plz

 

[Sticks]

Extreme Metroid baby! wtf

 

[Buggy Loop]

 

[Davevil]

moto metroid ahahahahahahha

 

[BigBeauford]

Easily the worst Nintendo Direct ever.

 

[SupaComputa]

They completely lost the plot, this plus their business practices it's like they are begging me not to buy anything from them.

 

[SCB3]

IMagine gettign a Metroid Riders release date before the game lol

 

[kaizenkko]

Nintendo can't make games for adults, can they?

 

[Oberstein]

Metroid Kart!

 

[Jinzo Prime]

Bitch I have a Motorcycle!!

 

[HerjansEagleFeeder]

Tomodachi is the most appealing looking game so far, and I've never played a game in the series.

 

[Jack Videogames]

It's time for Metroid... Kart World!

I was really scared until she left the bike lol

 

[Mownoc]

Well that's something. Metroid still this year at least.

 

[TintoConCasera]

That motorbike open-world looked like shit. Why do that in metroid? Those games are all about the level design, not empty plains.

 

[Salmonboy]

What the fuck! That looked SOOOOOO bad!! Looked like Mertroid Prime Warriors! WHY!!?

 

[Touch fuzZy. get BizZay]

dammmmmit samus motorbike ammiiibo uggh have to buuuuy

 

[SCB3]

12th December huh, good holiday game, like the original was for me

 

[Sephimoth]

So Metroid isn't the closer...

 

[iQuasarLV]

Metroid 4

Dec 2025

Barely making that 2025 calendar release date eh Nintendo?

 

[Dr. Wilkinson]

This might be one of the worst Direct ever

this is a bipolar direct. The bangers are awesome, but the bad is baaaaaad.

Are we watching the same show?

So far this Direct is not good.

I honestly think this is one of the strongest showings, ever. But it doesn all come down to personal taste. Yoshi, Mario Galaxy 2 in just a fe weeks, Mario Tennis, more Mario, DQ VII remake, my God I am so happy right now. And hey we got our Metroid date, you guys! 12/4! Not that far away. DK Bananza DLC? Anyone, no?

Outside of September 2018, this is probably top 2 Directs for me. (Still has 15 min to go)

 

[Topher]

I missed something. What was that metroid? A racer?

Wait....that was Metroid 4?

 

[Robb]

December for Metroid! No delay, thank god.

Game looks crazy. Did not expect the bike.

 

[Sticks]

What's up with these small ass snippets for Metroid? DK DLC already?!

 

[Stitch]

yes more bananza, right into my veins

 

[Jack Videogames]

Bit tired that every great game gets DLC and expansions... sometimes I wonder if they can't just sell the whole package and leave it at that

 

[Lambogenie]

Really not much for me here.
DQ7 looks nice though.

 

[MagiusNecros]

That motorbike open-world looked like shit. Why do that in metroid? Those games are all about the level design, not empty plains.

Metroid Prime 4: Beyond the Borderlands

I hate it's in December. I like we have a date.

 

[Salmonboy]

Also, DK game sucked so bad! Lag fest and just bad overall. Move on Nintendo!

 

[Touch fuzZy. get BizZay]

we wuz kongz

more bananza is coo'
