Off of work, finally got to watch the full Direct:
SMBW is looking great! I don't hate the NSMB series, they are legit good games, but nearly two decades of the same art style/music with little innovation got grating. This seems like a game to hard avoid leaks for as I think a lot of the fun will be experiencing how they plan on messing with players (hopefully not in a Lost Levels type way). It would be nice if each of the characters had their own attributes, but that doesn't seem to be the case so far (that will be SO weird for Yoshi). It sucks that they
still won't give us Online Co-Op.
The new Princess Peach game gives me a lot of Paper Mario vibes with the Stage Play setting. I'll need to see more, but it's still really cool to see her get another game. If it turns out to be an RPG, I think I'd be more interested in that than another platforming game.
A decade of Smash discourse salted the earth for me when it comes to Mario RPG, so personally I have zero interest.
Pokemon news was unexpected as I would have thought we'd see a solo Direct at the end of the Summer for the DLC, Sleep, Go Fest, Masters 4-Year Anniversary, etc. It's really awesome to see that we're getting new (more than likely) Poison Type Legendaries. Ogerpon seems like an obvious Grass type, so them being super effective again it makes sense (INB4 it's dual Grass/Steel).
Pikmin 4 having night missions definitely catches my eye. Pikmin 3 never really hooked me as it didn't seem to be all that different from Pikmin 2, so I'm much more sold on this game than before. Having all 4 mainline Pikmin titles on Switch is also really cool. More GC ports!
Metal Gear/Batman coming to Switch is also a nice surprise. They've been in my backlog for the longest time. Would be extra cool if Twin Snakes got a port as well, but I can't see either Nintendo or Konami wanting to pay for that.
