aw an early investors screening for the direct which was screened at nintendo of europe, frankfurt. here's what i know. screencap this post anons
>September 19th, 2019
>30 min. direct, focuses on Nintendo Switch Online
>direct starts off with yoshiaki koizumi introducing us to the direct, etc.
>passes it over to shinya takahashi, who goes onto introduce a new service coming to nintendo switch online: Nintendo&Me
>Nintendo&Me is a music service coming to the app where you'll be able to listen to a selection of nintendo game osts. the app can be accessed via the nintendo switch online app on mobile or downloaded from the eShop on switch.
>there'll be 20 albums to start off with, more are added weekly. additionally, compatible games within your Switch Library will have their soundtracks added under the tab "Linked Soundtracks" within the app. launches september 26th, 2019
>this alone takes like 3 minutes of the entire direct
>next, takahashi mentions how it's been a year since the launch of NES online and how happy they are that nintendo switch online users are enjoying the vast selection of NES games. this leads into SNES online which is exactly what it sounds like
>at launch, SNES online will have F-ZERO, Super Mario All-Stars, Kirby Super Star, Yoshi's Island and Legend of Zelda: Link to the Past, with 3 more being added monthly in a similar fashion to NES online. unlike NES online, however, SNES online will be a paid application, costing around $1.99 USD
>passes it back to koizumi who thanks takahashi for his time. koizumi introduces new titles coming to the nintendo switch
>a new Dr. Mario game is announced which introduces new viruses from the mobile game. not the biggest dr. mario fan so i'm unsure if it's a remaster of the original with new content, a port of the mobile game, or what. they showed multiple Dr.'s besides mario (peach and luigi are the ones i can recall)
>banjo news update is dropped but just like joker it's only an announcement of an announcement. this time we get an exact date of the future announcement, promising a fall update video September 23rd
>new paper mario game! partners are added (trailer introduces a new chain chomp partner named Chompy, he's a yellow chain chomp with freckles and a propeller hat). stickers are also a thing but have their concept reworked to function more like the spell items in paper mario 64 where they can be summoned as attacks with flashy animations. the plot of the game revolves around mario saving a town from drippy ink creatures (implied to be zombies of some sort). working title is "Paper Mario for Nintendo Switch" and releases Q2 2020.
>link's awakening info is shown but it's stuff we already knew from the original game so i'm going to skip over it. dampe's dungeon maker has an online leaderboard so that's cool i guess. shows off amiibo functionality but we knew that already as well
>koizumi talks to build up the next reveal: F-ZERO makes a return onto the switch. the trailer is animated. it's a half racer, half beat em up. captain falcon is a racer by day, hero by night who hides his identity. night levels captain falcon beats up burglers and appears to draw more from his smash incarnation. releases Q3 2019, title is "F-ZERO: LET'S GO!"
>koizumi then turns to tatsuya minami, who presents to us bayonetta 3. i don't give a **** about bayonetta so everything they talked about was a blur to me. it just looked like the same thing. releases in 2020 there's no exact date
>goes back to koizumi, they have one more announcement to make.
>CG courtroom is in session. bowser is the defendant, phoenix wright is defending his client, mario. there's actual text in this trailer, the judge is saying that bowser is being accused of kidnapping. he looks surprised as the judge says this, and the prosecutor is Bowser Jr. (and the Koopalings). bowser jr. starts speaking gibberish, phoenix thinks to himself that he can't understand what they're saying, screams objection, smash trailer. one of his taunts has the medium girl from the first game appear, side smash is objection, forward air is a statue(?), final smash is that 4 locks appear on the opponent and every time phoenix hits them, a lock goes down. once the locks reach zero, the opponent gets instantly KOed. super smash bros ultimate x phoenix wright.
