Well, it's cool other people will get to play Skyward Sword, but that BotW2 intro was such a tease.

I'm excited to play Skyward Sword with motion controls deleted. I had that game on Wii and the motion controls were such dogshit trash, this version could actually save the game for me.

Overall this was a fairly lackluster Direct. The only announcements that got me really interested were the Legend of Mana Remaster and Project Triangle Strategy. But I am particularly stoked about the latter because that hits all my sweetspots in what I want in a game.

Splatoon 3 is interesting. They need to differentiate it from 2 since they will both be on Switch. Weird reveal though. Also I'm shocked they didn't do more for Zelda's 35th

So, I'm getting the Detective Club games, The World's Ender club (loved Danganronpa and the Zero Escape series), The AoC Expansion Pass, SS HD and joycons (Glad they added button controls, but I'll still use motion), and Splatoon 3 (though that's next year)...

Maybe they'll celebrate the anniversary by giving us some massive Zelda news in *checks calendar* uh f-four days..? Yeah nvm. They're not doing anything for the anniversary.

goddam i never watch Directs live and the one time I do it was absolute trash. Only thing that looked remotely interesting out of all of that was the Triangle octopath looking game.

Meh overall. No big AAA announcements, and pretty surprised there was no real Zelda/Metroid/Pokemon bundles or news aside from SS, since the former 2 turn 35 this year, and Pokemon turns 25. Year is young and we may likely hear more, but the only "big" news was Splatoon 3. I like the Splatoon games (although I don't play them enough), but it kinda feels early for another?

Triangle, Neon White look interesting. I'll be getting NMH3, so it was nice to see more. Pyra/Mythra I like in Smash. Never cared about the Mario Golf games, but it looks fine.

A decent amount of games were show cased, but not very much caught my eye.

Huh? I thought the DIrect was fine. There were games I 100% expected to be there that surprisingly weren't, but there were also games I did not at all expect, and they look good!

Most of the time I just read about them afterwards and yeah even then there is a small number of things that interest me. That's why I usually just skip watching but I figured I'd watch live this time and I evidently wasn't prepared for how much more visceral the disappointment was.

Not the best Direct but interested in:

Legend of Mana
Mario Golf
Stubbs the Zombie
Zelda: SS. They added button controls how I figured they would. I think I said it on my stream last week that they could map the sword to the right stick.
Splatoon 3

That's all I remember from the top of my head. I know there's more though.

It was a very meh direct. The Mario Golf was probably the most exciting thing for me, but other than that and the Skyward Sword remake, nothing was really doing it for me.

I wonder why they provided a budget and did video editing work just to say they were releasing a bunch of ports/hd remakes and mediocre stuff for the beginning of the year?

I thought it was already pretty well assumed they and every platform/game company does that kind of year round anyway while they still work on the stuff that matters... doesn't seem like something you need to make a direct about and waste time actually presenting like you're PROUD of it?

Generalized directs have always had lowlights but yeah it does seem pretty arbitrary what they decide to highlight or not. A lot of the kind of stuff they showed comes out all the time without special announcements and a lot of the stuff that's not shown is better lol

I mean, its just a video to show you whats coming out soon. I don.the really see an issue with it. Sometimes, youll get a lot of stuff you want, sometimes not. Like some people didnt like the games they announced. I think many of them seemed like fun games, and have even put some on my pre-order list. Its not like every direct needs to talk about all the biggest games. Not to mention, there usually arent always too many big games a year, anyway...

Being a dumping ground for old ports and remasters is kinda the switches bread and butter. The games that kinda aren't worth getting dressed up to go out to eat for anymore but you'll Uber eats some Arby's and call it a day. Kinda like your girlfriend after a week and a half.

It's true that people have a tendency to set their expectations too high, like for example when they do an indie showcase and people are like "where's pokemon?". But I think people were somewhat justified expecting a lot from this one. Knowing only that it was 50 minutes and Smash would be part of it made it sound like it would be for more major announcements

Very lackluster for me.
The majority of titles announced in this Direct are ports/remasters. And the real interesting titles are releasing in the latter half of 2021 or even 2022...
I hope I'm wrong, but this leads me to believe we may have another lackluster year for Nintendo exclusives. :/
