Imagine Banjo not even being the final thing shown.

I hope this was said before BOTW2

 

[Dragoncharystary]

So all the naysayers saying Vergeben knew nothing about the DLC were completely wrong. The man continues to be right, keep paying attention to what he says.

 

[UtopianPoyzin]

Well I guess i don’t have a choice, better make this first post count.


Hi everyone!


OK now that introductions are out of the way HOLY **** SAKURAI I LOVE YOU

Oh cool it's a user with a Banjo avi. They must be pretty excited HOLY ****ING **** FREEZERBURN SAID SOMETHING!!!!

 

[Knight Dude]

Maybe the Brave files were all the friends we made along the way.

Steve confirmed. Smashboards won't react well.

HE HAS RISEN!!! May the age of Guh-Huh be known for generations to come.

 

[Blargg888]

Man, Professor Oak must hate seeing the water bike.

I love it though.

This is the power of Smash. We got Freezerburn talking.

 

[Abha]

Pleasantly surprised I can play as the DQ8 Hero over Erdrick since that is how I was first introduced to the series when I was younger on PS2 so it just feels right

 

[Guybrush20X6]

So we got Banjo back and can play as 4 of the Dragon Quest protagonists.

 

[Flyboy]

NO MORE HEROES 3 I AM OVER THE ****ING MOON WE DID IT LADS

 

[E.G.G.M.A.N.]

Well, damn. I did not expect them to do both DQ & BK. Looks like Sakurai made some folks very happy today!

 

[Michele]

Hmmm, so the chances of Steve being at Smash has been completely broken. Looks like that Minecraft guy may not come at all.

 

[Guh-Huzzah!]

Very enjoyable direct. I am glad with what we got.

 

[Knight Dude]

Damn, look at the squad.

Spoiler

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

I dont even CARE animal Crossing got delayed, that ***** looks nice!

 

[Cyborg Sun]

That Direct was pretty good... Sure, there were a lot of games I don't care for, and it sucks that the Fantastic 4 are just DLC in MUA3. Definitely had way more variety than last year, that's certain.

Love the premise for the new Animal Crossing.

They ended STRONG, like really freakin' strong. Banjo-Kazooie is back and in Smash, and BotW sequel!? Sign me the heck up.

 

[Dragoncharystary]

I don't want to be the downer but based on the vagueness of the BOTW2 trailer, it might not even come in 2020.

But who cares I'm still fricking hyped!

 

[Knight Dude]

If this new Zelda game leads to a legit Ganondorf, something we haven't gotten since TP, I'm actually interested.

Serebii Update: Pokémon HOME can only transfer Pokémon to Sword & Shield if they appear in the Galar Pokédex. https://t.co/gDbXkHSvkT

Is this appropriate here? Anyways if it's not on Galar Dex, you can't transfer them..

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

AC: NH gameplay?! stop, my heart can only take so much!

 

[Dragoncharystary]

Is this appropriate here?

So we're continuing with the incomplete National Dex trend from Sun and Moon then? I don't get what the point of this is.

 

[DarthEnderX]

So the question for me right now is: Did any of the full DLC list leaks actually have Joker, DQ Hero and Banjo on them?

 

[**Gilgamesh**]

Employee: So which dragon quest protagonist shall we add?
Sakurai: Yes, Yes...

That's it as far as I know. The last two characters still make me iffy on it.

 

[PLATINUM7]

I'd say a bunch but most listed Erdrick specifically.

There was one with Leon S. Kennedy (+Jill alt) and Lloyd Irving. It also got the date of the last Smash update right (but the version number wrong).

 

[MasterOfKnees]

Decent E3 for Nintendo, I think the middle portion was pretty underwhelming, but they cranked it up well towards the end with AC, Banjo and BotW2, and there were also some good 3rd party games on display like Spyro and Witcher III. A bit odd that they only just glanced over Pokémon, FE and Link's Awakening, but I suppose that's the advantage they have with the Treehouse, the presentation itself is mostly just for announcements.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

aaa AC looks so charmiing

 

[KingofPhantoms]

Astral Chain still looks really interesting, by the way. Definitely checking that one out.

Spyro on the Switch is also extremely hype. I've been waiting for that for a while, now. Looks like I'm finally going to be playing the Reignited Trilogy, after all!

Yeah, seems far too early for Edel, especially with the FE stigma even if she looks pretty interesting

 

[Strong Badam]

Oh My ****ing God I actually CRIED IT'S BANJO-KAZOOIE IM SO HAPPY AHHHHH

 

[Xelrog]

So all the naysayers saying Vergeben knew nothing about the DLC were completely wrong. The man continues to be right, keep paying attention to what he says.

I don't know who this Vergeben is but I know however he presented the info it wasn't as good as Nintendo's Direct. That one would attempt to ruin the magic of an official reveal for themselves just speaks volumes to me about their lack of self control.

Anyway, on the direct: two characters, called it. Was DQ guy's release date announced?

 

[KirbyWorshipper2465]

I'm so happy like you wouldn't believe right now, Luminary and Banjo-Kazooie in the same game, agh|!"!/!"/"/"

 

[mario123007]

They're showing off the accompanying CGI-movies releasing alongside the games, obviously. Why else would so many companies make animations for their trailers rather than showing off actual gameplay?

Problem with many of the "announcments" is that many of them only show CGI movies on video games... when you announce a video game it is best to show gameplay, especially those that are coming this year or next year.

Look at Nintendo Direct E3 2019, nearly a majority of the games they show us have gameplay.

Uh... right. I I was making a sarcastic joke with that statement. It's definitely best to post gameplay with trailers/announcements, I was just making a jab at companies that just make animations rather than showing actual gameplay.

Yeah, sorry about that, sarcasm is hard to covey via text lol.

And you also have Switch force instead of making a Nintendo E3 2019 review, they just title the video on how they were disappointed on Animal Crossing New Horizon...

Double Face Palm...

 

[**Gilgamesh**]

DLC Characters are on the official smash site btw

Banjo & Kazooie are greyed out for me.

 

[KickleCubiclist]

THANK YOU NINTENDO

 

[Dragoncharystary]

Still no Retro game. What in the hell is going on at Retro Studios right now.
