Highlights for me;
Klonoa 1&2 bundle (main highlight)
Splatoon 3 coming this summer
Switch Sports looking dope
Mario Strikers
MK8 retro course bundle

I'd give that a solid B bros.

 

[Arenafighter]

Fucking waste of Time

 

[BennyBlanco]

10/10

 

[Portugeezer]

B

A lot has to be said for the timing, nothing overstayed its welcome except maybe Switch Sports.

 

[8BiTw0LF]

Nintendo doesn't speak to me and I need to acknowledge that.

Rating: E

 

[Punished Miku]

A -

Better than most peoples e3.

 

[TintoConCasera]

B, lots of cool shit, but no big cool shit like Zelda or Prime 4. Also no Silksong.

I'll be getting that MK DLC and Live A Live is a day 1.

 

[Coolwhhip]

How can you rate something a letter?

8/10 I'd say, was a very solid Direct but not earth shattering.

 

[Werewolf Jones]

Live A Live remake
Klonoa
Chrono Cross WITH Radical Dreamers
Project Triangle
Mario Kart (Not) 9
Xenoblade 3 (even if the designs are plain)

If you don't think it was hot fire you're buggin.

 

[Synless]

A you heathens.

 

[009EspadaSageJay]

B+/-A

 

[envyzeal]

Chrono Cross + Radical Dreamers. That's enough for any gaming related event.

 

[Doom85]

Definitely an A in my book.

 

[Skelterz]

Missing Zelda but hey was pretty good finally some new courses for MK8 as well been playing the same old tracks since Wii U finally a bit of DLC lol, and an interesting model I'll be looking closely at how they build there premium sub in the future.

 

[Squarehard]

E isn't even a grade, so I give this thread an F.

 

[Aurelius]

10/10
Front Mission was my highlight.

 

[PropellerEar]

Auto F, didn't even watch.

8/10 I'd say, was a very solid Direct but not earth shattering.

I dunno, the education system in the UK rated me a letter in each of my GCSE subjects.

 

[Alexios]

So Front Mission 1, 2, Live a Live, Xenoblade Chronicles 3, Kirby, decent, then usual multiplatform stuff and indies on top with some surprise ports like Portal...

Seeing more of Splatoon 3 and Advance Wars and other such stuff is always good too. Strikers and whatever else for fans of that type of Mario Sports games.

I guess it wasn't too bad even with misses like Switch Sports but since they showed a late 22 game they should show us Bayo 3 and Prime 4 and such already.

 

[BusierDonkey]

Xenoblade Chronicles 3, Kirby, LiveALive, Klonoa Collection, Chrono Cross, Front Mission, new Fire Emblem Warriors 48 new tracks for Mario Kart... No Zelda but that will get it's own direct down the road as will any other big announcements.

Good stuff!

 

[Azelover]

I really liked it. So it's an A for me..

Do I wish there was Metroid Prime 4 or Zelda? Yep, and I still think it's an A.

We're not at E3, so I wasn't expecting atomic bombs. But it was still very good. The Mario Strikers game looked remarkably nice, and fun.

 

[odhiex]

B. Good line-up, but so many ports and remasters. More new games, please.

 

[Dr Bass]

Definitely an A. Almost everything in it was for the first half of this year. Most companies don't even announce 2-3 years worth of games this good in their shows.

 

[R6Rider]

Chose C.

Not enough new or big titles that I care about. Honestly Live A Live was the best thing shown along with Kirby.

I'm sure they are mostly all great games, but just nothing I care too much about or have interest in.

 

[Little Mac]

C ... Im a sucker for 2D rpg nostalgia but I'm not really going to care about Switch until the next hardware iteration or successor gets announced.

 

[Saber]

B.

It was pretty damn solid and enjoyable to watch. Lot of new interesting games, seeing the presenter doing the volley practice was a bold move and I respect that.

 

[arvfab]

I admit I'm being harsher here and gave it a C.

Content was actually good, but I'm more interested in the remasters than in the new stuff.

Would deserve an F for no F***ing Pikmin 4

 

[NeonGhost]

C

 

[ANDS]

Nintendo doesn't speak to me and I need to acknowledge that.

Rating: E

This sums up my feelings and why I shouldn't have voted. Just nothing in their arsenal or their vision for gaming resonates at all with me.

. . .the only thing I perked up at was FRONT MISSION and that'll all make its way to other places eventually.

 

[nordique]

I thought it was great overall. Lots of good reveals and some nice surprises

 

[KingGhidorah]

C

No Metroid remake
No Zelda remake
No older IP revival (Donkey Kong, Star Fox)
No new IP

 

[Sensei]

B+
Happy for most of the remasters and Xenoblade Chronicles 3

 

[mortal]

B-

They pretty much set expectations with the announcement, so I didn't expect any megatons. A couple of pleasant surprises, with a nice variety of new & older titles, as well as DLC support.
I think BotW 2 will get its own dedicated showcase, along with a proper name reveal.

If you were completely disappointed by this then you may need to lay off the hype a bit

 

[RoadHazard]

D. So much old stuff.

 

[TheTony316]

C-. Xenoblade and Chrono Cross saved it for me. I didn't care about the rest.

 

[Kiraly]

Auto F, didn't even watch.

You're so cool

 

[Neff]

D feels about right, at least in terms of reveals.

Almost everything I'm interested in from that trailer is either an already announced title or an old port.

MK8 DLC was the only notable surprise for me.

 

[NecrosaroIII]

Mother / Earthbound fans got trolled so 10/10 A+

 

[Barakov]

A

Didin't care about everything that was announced but even if I didn't care for a certain game, I can see why people would be excited. I can kinda see how Switch would be only partway through its' life cycle. Nintendo fans will be eating good this year.

 

[iHaunter]

Fucking waste of Time

Same for me. Same shit, no new IPs. Half the "Direct' were games from YEARS ago. Pretty sad. $25 DLC for a 5 year old game.

 

[The Wheel of Fortune]

B for me. Quite good overall, but I wanted a real Fire Emblem game, not that musou Warriors bs.

 

[Sosokrates]

I missed it.

I dont suppose anyone could give some brief cliff notes.

Was it just mk8 dlc, chrono cross remastered and xeoblade 3?

Any bew BOTW 2 ganeplay?

No BOTW. Live a Live and Front Mission remakes instead

[Dream-Knife]

A because of Xenoblade. That's all I care about from Nintendo.

 

[Ezquimacore]

No zelda but the content was there, B+

 

[Bonfires Down]

Kirby looks fun... uhhh that's about it. Show me some Zelda.

 

[Bragr]

For a direct this was an A, you can't expect much more than this. It's not E3.

 

[ShirAhava]

Best direct ever AAA

Front Mission 1&2, Klonoa 1&2, Switch sports, Xeno 3

only thing I didn't get that I care about was F-ZERO REMAKE

Klonoa is a top 5 game of all time for me so Nintendo wins the generation

 

[AJUMP23]

C. Good games but if you want an A you need a new Mario or Zelda.
