The 3DS has no decent Real Time Strategy games, Nintendos one franchise that could work well for it, the make into another wording 2D platformer

There was a Pikmin game released just a few years ago.
Why can't smaller Nintendo series get spin offs?
Pretty much. Not even any word on Monster Hunter Stories
What? Why?
Mario Sports Mix existed on the Wii and that didn't prevent us from getting Mario Tennis Open, Mario Golf World Tour, or Mario Tennis Ultra Smash.
It's a compilation of sports games being made by, as far as I can tell from the Tennis footage, Camelot.
Considering I was expecting nothing, that was great. The Pikmin is obviously super early (they don't even have a name), so I'm not too worried abotu the footage for that not blowing my mind.
Mario Maker 3DS though, that's all I need. That was worth the entire Direct itself.

Sounds like they're preparing their audience to the NX concept with all those Wii U ports lol
I'm interested in most of the stuff they showed today (DQVII, AA6, Rhythm Paradise, Pokémon, Mario Sports, Ever Oasis, Mario Maker, Yoshi, Pikmin). Gotta buy that Fates New 3DS after all.
Was the tank game somehow related to the Wii Play minigame? Cause i have to buy that one too if that's the case

Imagine the meltdowns if it's just a console
2019? What?
Let's be honest, they had a lot more for 3DS than I thought they would. Granted it's cheap stuff and ports mostly, but it was a lot better than I expected.
Individual Mario sports games had become a tough sell at the price Nintendo likes to charge. And for some reason they never put enough content in to justify them.

I think you're right. The fact that Metroid Prime: Federation Force has apparently failed to even chart in Japan means that it is increasingly likely that we'll not see a proper Metroid ever again

In for Picross 3D Yoshi and Mario Maker 3DS. Might be in for Mario Sports.

I guess they still see potential in making money off the 3DS... which is true.... and they can still have the NX come out and take money too.
I actually thought it was another Chibi-Robo. I was ready to laugh.

It's ridiculous to make an assumption that it is
People should, you know, relax and not go crazy thinking pikmin 4 is dead?

After all the WiiU to 3DS ports, I'm surprised Kirby and the Rainbow Curse hasn't been announced.
Not only that, but we know that Pikmin 4 is coming.
- Mario Maker 3DS except without internet
- One new character for Hyrule Legends as DLC
- Stuff we already knew was coming out
- Pikmin sidescroller
edit: oh and more Zelda amiibos that unlock BotW DLC, please look forward to it
Touch fuzZy. get BizZay

Happy about streetpass stuff.
Will get DQ7 and Mariomaker 4 sho.

Not sure what people expected. This was always basically a way of saying "hey guys we still have 3ds stuff until early next year!" to ensure an NX announcement doesn't kill xmas sales of the system.
It's just tedious having to wait again. Winter could mean anything from November to December. Obviously it's a better situation than SMTIV (or is it... I'd better not jinx it) but 7th Dragon at least should have been a quick turnaround.2D Pikmin Platformer? I remember when this was called Kirby Mass Attack...
The trailer was quite clear. It said Winter. Now which Winter is another matter
It's probably going to better than Mario Tennis as well
I guess I should point my frustration at SEGA Europe rather than Deep Silver. If they weren't so shit in the first place we might have gotten it in a timely manner.

My god all the moments they built stuff up only for it to be absolutely nothing.
Haha, good. I say this as a Metroid fan, the "feedback" about FF was a bunch of spoiled babies crying about "not my Metroid".

What the shit was that?
Pikmin 3DS, the game you can only describe as an adventure because it barely meets the requirements to be called an adventure game let alone anything else.
Dragon Quest was cool but i've never played the franchise (anyone recommend picking up either 7 or 8 when they come out as a first DQ game?)
I lost all hope in Phoenix Wright a long time ago. I gave Phoenix/Layton a try but Layton's gone to shit too and the two of them together was just... flat out bad.
Alolan Rattata was cool.
Oh yay. more mario sports. yipee.
Yokai Watch 2... surprised to see it localised but the game never really grabbed me. The combat seemed a bit simple and the story even moreso.
Ever Oasis I really don't like the chibi art style.
Confused about New Leaf. Do I have to buy the amiibo compatibility upgrade? Seriously?
If this is meant to make me excited for 3DS being continued for another 2 years it did a terrible job.

Thought that was a pretty decent direct.
I guess you can please some people.
I guess you can please some people.
It was a 3DS focused direct. Also, the Wii U is dead. 3DS has such a larger install base, why waste resources in the WiiU when NX is right around the corner?
A solid line up for an almost 6 year old system.
He never said pikmin 4. He said a new pikmin game.
2018, mistyped.

Definitely getting Monster Hunter Stories, the more I see of it the better it looks. The nintendo costumes totally sold it on me though. With Gran Turismo Sport pushed back I could definitely use something new in November. Though kind of hard to decide between MHS and SD Gundam: G Generation Genesis.
Edit: Motherfucking Momotarou Dentetsu is back!!

Thank you.
It happens every single direct
Pretty underwhelming. The most interesting things to me were the Mario Sports pack and the Tank Game. Still not sold one way or the other on Ever Oasis.
Pikmin sidescroller is genuinely not a good idea.
3DS is clearly on life support. Sure there will be a few good things before it passes, and there is so much on it already that I haven't gotten to. I am sure I will enjoy DQ7&8, and Pokemon. Probably Severed too. It's been a nice run.
