Nintendo is at a weird point. There aren't any major titles on the horizon. They'll need to show something good otherwise this will be total useless. Somehow I doubt this will be where they announce the next system, unless they just acknowledge it's a thing.

Switch 2 or whatever it's gonna be called is rumored for this year, so maybe there'll be a teaser for that.

Recently, they've tended toward showing major titles relatively shortly before their release. The last few February directs have come at an apparent lull in their release lineup, but set the stage for most of the rest of the year with titles that come out within ~6-8 months of their announcement. Personally, I kind of prefer that over the industry standard of "here's a trailer for a game that might come out three years from now."

That said, they're specifying this is a "partner showcase," which I expect means it's going to be mostly third-party stuff, and 25 minutes is pretty short. In the absence of another February direct, I suspect this means we're going to be getting a bigger one in March-April that unveils a new system. That's mostly just a hunch, though.

Or 8-10 years if you are Bethesda.

Remember how they showed a title card for Elder Scrolls 6? Wasn't that like 6 years ago? It'll probably be at least another 6 years before it even launches, and it'll probably suck when it does.

E3 2018, so going on 6 years. Current rumors say 2026, but given that it is Bethesda we can expect that to slip a year or two.

Finally, a Fantasy Life release date. That was announced *last* February as a 2023 release, and kept being listed as such until like December when they said "Yeah it's not coming this year we're aiming for next summer."

Otherwise, nothing super exciting. Can't say I was expecting a new Endless Ocean (I honestly forgot that game existed), but I guess it makes a lot of sense with the currently popularity of chill exploration cozy games. Not really my thing, but good for the people that like it.

I can't say I've followed it closely, but I'm getting the vibe that it's a matter of Sonic Mania doing well, Sonic Team not following through on its success because that's just how Sonic works now, and the studio just saying "fine, we'll make our own game that follows through on Mania's success." That's something that's good to see. The management of the Sonic franchise has just been baffling in how insistent they seem to be on trying something different every time regardless of whether or not the last idea worked, which has resulted in a ton of wasted potential.

From what I read, they wanted to do something original and not just jump straight into another Mania. But it's hard to know exactly what goes on behind closed doors. Many fans definitely would have preferred Mania 2 over Superstars, but I'm glad the devs got to spread their wings and do something not seen before

He said "tomorrow" yesterday, in all North American time zones. I guess it would have been like 2 am today your time, but it was between 5 and 10 pm for all NA users.

The URL also specifies 2-21-2024, which should clear up any confusion.

I never played Epic Mickey, because I heard it was mid. But it's cool that the game is getting legs on Switch. It's heart is in the right place, doing something semi-original for Mickey and the gang.

I tried the Contra "remake" demo. It's made by Wayforward, who made Contra 4 on DS, River City Girls, and other quality titles. Sadly, Konami still doesn't give two Fs about its franchises. The game had several problems, and is just very cheap in general. Which is really sad to see because the game actually has some good ideas, underneath the problems and multiple easy modes.

Seeing some cooperation with Rare and some retro titles is very nice. People are clambering for the Banjo Kazooie games, of course. Can't just be grateful for two seconds, can we? Let's see what this leads to, shall we? This is good news, folks!

I was happy to see Endless Ocean, but only because it was one of the Game Grumps' funniest legacy playthroughs! Play the new one, Denny and Arnold!

My favorite announcement? CLASSIC STAR WARS BATTLEFRONT WITH ONLINE PLAY BAYBEE!!!! I'll see you there! With Kit Fisto! (But hopefully this turns out to be multiplat, and shows up on PC, lol!)

Are you saying it was released in Europe?

Still, what I have seen of Breaker gameplay, it is more of a shooter with light melee elements, than the type of games the musou games are and I enjoy more.

Logging in to my South-East Asia PSN account, it seems rther expensive still (Breaker 3). (Wait, ~50 when the sequel is already out, what?)

Ooh, but Memory of Heroes appears to be on sale...

Still, pretty sure SD Gundam Battle Alliance had a demo that I tried out before getting that one, will wait for the Demo for Gundam Breaker 4 and tried. that.

Still, as much as I love Gundam. Only a new Musou and Super Robot Wars titles are immediate buys for me.
Although, it could pull a Cross Rays and do what that game did to convince me to buy it.

Also, if it is not a 3rd Person Shooter with Melee elements, the gameplay really does not come across as what it is, from watching gameplay videos on Youtube.
