Pyra was an interesting choice for Smash. I haven't played Xenoblade Chronicles 2, but the trailer looked nice and I think she has a lot of character. Couldn't be happier that it wasn't Geno, lmao

I'm curious about what No More Heroes fans think of the third game having aliens. Suda games are all pretty weird, so I imagine most folks are like "sweet, more weirdness", but still.

I fucking love Mario Golf. This new game looks great, I love how the new Speed Golf game mode looks. I love that you can use your Miis and level them up. It looks like a great golf game, and I'm going to be picking this one up.

Those Famicom mystery games look pretty cool. Interesting retro throwback. I'm also interested in that game by the Danganronpa devs - it looks cute, but I feel like it's gonna be pretty fucked up in places too.

I dunno if anyone's raging about the Capcom arcade game being a DLC fest, because they did the same thing on PS3. They give you a game for free and you have to buy the rest. If anyone thought they were getting a slew of old games for free, that's on them.

Ninja Gaiden collection is cool. I like that Hyrule Warriors is getting DLC, hopefully it'll be comparable to the first Hyrule Warriors game in time. I wanna beat the first one and then move onto a version of Age of Calamity with comparable content. I understand that the first game has a fuckton of content, and that for Age of Calamity to have that amount of content is kind of ridiculous, but if there's still an impressive amount of content to sink my teeth into - comparable, not exactly equal - I'm going to be a very happy camper. Unless Persona 5 Strikers burns me out on Musou games.

What's the deal with that Stubbs the Zombie game? I kinda wanna buy it and share it with one of my friends, it seems really quirky and fun.

Interesting choice to port Legend of Mana and SaGa Frontier. It really is the age of PS1 ports and remasters. Not a fan of these types of action RPGs, but Frontier looks cool and I'd love to play it if it has more turn-based combat instead of real-time stuff like the Mana games.

My understanding is that people take issue with Skyward Sword's waggle controls. With them adding a controller option, you would think that people would have died down about the game a little bit. But people are still up in arms about it being the worst Zelda game. What's especially funny is that rumours have been flying around since last year, and people have been going "Skyward Sword when" - now it's announced, people are acting like this was a deliberate act of malice designed to blindside Zelda fans expecting BOTW2 news.

Honestly, since it has a control scheme that doesn't rely on motion controls, I'm more likely to give Skyward Sword a go. The character design can be pretty ugly, as is custom for a lot of 3D Zelda games (TP's muscle baby being a prime example), but I love how the scenery looks and I love that soft bloom that everything has. I don't know if I'm gonna get it, but I would think that this would be the same sort of redemption that Twilight Princess got. Like let's face it, even though Link is especially ugly in this game, the designs for Fi, Ghirahim and proto-Ganondorf fuck hard. The scenery looks gorgeous. I hope this prompts people to re-evaluate Skyward Sword, especially in regards to the seeds it planted that sprouted in BotW.

And also - Eiji Nomura said that BotW2 news should be coming down the pipeline this year. That's progress. I understand Zelda games tend to get delayed a lot, Skyward Sword and BotW took years to come out, but I'm holding out hope for BotW2 news. They haven't mentioned it at all since the teaser trailer, and Nomura addressed it directly in this Direct. I feel secure in saying that we'll be hearing about Breath of the Wild 2 by the end of the year.

That being said, I'm a newly minted Zelda fan who's not used to the Zelda cycle, so take my optimism with a grain of salt.

I can feel it in my bones, I'm gonna spend another year alone.
