Nintendo Direct (8th March 2018) - General

[video=youtube;NsFna-Z1MjU]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NsFna-Z1MjU[/video] Starts in about 15 minutes. It will be approximately 30 minutes in length.

Very first thing. "We're not abandoning the 3DS, we swear!" Also what the fuck is this Dillon's Dead Heat Breakers game? It has every genre in it.

Where is Danny Devito? :frown:

Migt be Smash 5 or heavily updated Smash. BotW Link confirmed

Well that was like 25 minutes of disappointment followed by an orgasm

Why does Super smash Bros have HAL on it? I thought it was developed by bandai. Maybe a new smash rather than a port?

That trailer was fucking phenomenal.

That last bit was an emotional rollercoaster

Crash Remastered on Switch what the fuck Welp I know what console I'm getting

Smash ez

Sm4sh: Bandai + Sora Ltd It's never been just one company but im excited at the prospect of the melee company on the job again [editline].[/editline] either that or by "original game" they're crediting the originators of the series

The Mario and Luigi series is one of my favorites, but I don't really think Bowser's Inside Story needed a remake. The spritework and music have aged wonderfully (unlike Superstar Saga, which desperately needed a revamp). Heck, the original BIS can still be played on a 3DS. [quote="a bud"]pure goonery as they try to make the underpowered 2007 cell phone era machine last a year longer[/quote] Pretty much this I guess.

Everyone going to ignore the Solaire of Astora amiibo? [editline]8th March 2018[/editline] I don't even like Dark Souls all that much and I love that amiibo

I paused the live stream so I could watch the announcements after dinner, then when I got back the stream [del]splashed[/del] crashed and gave me a "video unavailable" error after I got through the first part about Splatoon 2 new. Guess Super Splash Bros was too exciting for YouTube to handle.

Video says unavailable for me

The Direct started out meh, but the Undertale/Crash N Sane/South Park ports as well as the Smash reveal made it super solid in my eyes. I'd like to see a Dragon Ball FigtherZ port at some point but I am overall very content with what we got. That Smash reveal was absolutely legendary.

They took the live feed down, fixed the link

The Smash reveal, whatever it is, is cool. But I can't be excited about something that vague. The Splatoon 2 DLC looks dope though.

Luigis Mansion remake on 3DS is a real monkey's paw right there.

Hell yeah Mario Tennis, loved that game on N64.

I'm probably most excited about Luigi's Mansion being put on the 3DS, even though I still have the original disc to play on GameCube, and backed it up to play on Dolphin. I was actually expecting some sort of Sunshine port with all those announcements of 3DS ports. [QUOTE=Oblivion Knight;53187591]Hell yeah Mario Tennis, loved that game on N64.[/QUOTE] Deciding to focus so much time on it seemed risky, considering the reception for the last one, but it actually made it look pretty fun.

Wait a second, so they've remade Bowsers Inside Story but what about Partners in Time? They skipped it. Also, Holy shit, the Gamecube Luigis Mansion for 3DS? nice.
