Yes we do.
Which makes it even worse that a 2D Metroid has been ignored for so long....it is what so many people have been asking for.

Probably getting Ever Oasis. Looked like a cool mix n mash between Animal Crossing, Harvest Moon, RPG dungeons and Pokemon.
Glad to see Ace Attorney as always.
Loved seeing Reggie, and Bill showing off his psycho power. Shame that 3DS looks like crusted shit.

So what will you say if (when) all of these 3DS versions also get an NX versions?

Where was my surprise Mother 3 announcement from which I knew it wouldn't happen but hoped it would happen regardless?
I think you could say that about every direct, and you can replace Mother 3 with lots of other things.
Once you take expectations off the table with Nintendo, things get much nicer.

It was honestly was way better than I thought it would be. I am actually surprised at the number of games that were shown. Of course, I would have loved a surprise Mother 3 release. Maybe someday....

As someone without a Wii U this was a great Direct IMO. The console is in its twilight years, Im impressed it's supported at all. Pikmin and Mario Maker are very exciting.

Yup glad I really wasn't let down.
They get it to run at 60fps, I'll buy it.

General wisdom was that Nintendo was holding back on new releases to save them for NX launch titles, but they just announced new 3DS games for 2017 so now you have to wonder what the fuck they're preparing for launch now...
(To be fair, Nintendo DOES have a history of keeping their handhelds alive for irrationally long periods of time after their successors launch.)

I thought the Direct was bizarrely decent. Whether you liked the guy who is the President of the Nintendo Treehouse who has the biggest smile on his face or not, some of his lines are just bizzarely corny like "Overruled!" or "Look at Sonic go!" Oh, and the 3DS port of Dragon Quest VIII delayed to 2017 was a bit disappointing to me.
They didn't announce anything regarding IE GO Galaxy. I was also looking forward to it. Seems like it died so Yokai Watch could live.
yeah that's like the one series that it it would be great for.
I'm honestly surprised people are disappointed. Two weeks ago I would have bet 3DS would be just as dead as the Wii U post-2016. Considering NX is covering both home and portable bases, I figured 3DS was done, so any amount of support is welcome.
I really feel like some people let their expectations go to unrealistic places with these things.

They've been on Famicom, Super Famicom, Gameboy, and PS1 and 2. They are incredibly fun.
Yes, DQ7 or 8 are great entries to the series, though 1-6 are great too if you like solid, retro RPGs.

I'd be worried if a Direct wasn't considered disappointing.
Lol they are not delaying the NX becouse they announced a bunch of WiiU ports to 3DS, B games and localization come on get real
You shouldn't link to a page when some people are set up for 100 posts per page while others are set up for 50 ppp.

You joke, but I'd buy the shit out of a 2.5D Bayonetta game for the 3DS.

I mean, it's a lot of padding in release schedules...
I was ok with it. At least I know there will be games to play like DQ7, Mario Maker and that Mario Sports game. The it's really time for the NX guys, these games are gonna be weird placeholders until then.
Also was gonna pull the trigger on Yoshi's Wooly world this weekend since its dropped to $30, but I might just wait.

All in all, better then I thought it would be. Was definitely holding on for some more possible localizations. Was very interesting to see the multiple ports. I'm in for cute yarn yoshi!

None of the games were appealing to me but at least the 3ds isn't dead yet and the zelda amibbo looked great. Hero of time amiibo was the highlight of the show.
