How many farming games is this Direct going to have?

EDIT: We got a small update on Bayo 3, and there will be a gameplay trailer after the Direct, though I don't think the snippet that we got in the Direct told us anything that we didn't already know.

 

[Mellowy Yellow]

There was a problem fetching the tweet

 

[ZephyrZ]

Why are there so many life simulation games-

...Ah.

 

[cashregister9]

"From the creators of Danganronpa" is a threat

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

a wonderful life, Octopath 2, free Splatoon updates, the new FE looks pretty good

Particularly happy about the Free splatoon updates and Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life. That game was my **** as a kid

 

[Mellowy Yellow]

oh my god Sifu looks ROUGH running on the switch

 

[Schnee117]

Nintendo fans are gonna discover Lady D

 

[Dukefire]

Tales of Symphonia has returned

 

[Noipoi]

Nintendo fans are gonna discover Lady D

Don’t worry. It’s a cloud version, they won’t play it.

 

[Dukefire]

Kirby Return to Dreamland is coming to the Switch

 

[Mellowy Yellow]

OH MY ****!

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Omg Tears of the Kingdom is such a HARD ASS NAME

 

[Noipoi]

That was the direct of all time.

 

[CannonStreak]

Great, no Donkey Kong as usual. Man, the leakers just continue to be wrong on that front, huh?

 

[Dyllybirdy]

It finally has a name!

 

[Diddy Kong]

No Donkey Kong was the reason I didn't watch, I knew it wasn't coming.

I read here about a new Fire Emblem tho, that's cool at least.

Was there anything about Zelda?

Donkey Kong fans found dead in Miami after this Direct, joining their F-Zero brethren.

 

[Hydreigonfan01]

This is like the year of "never-ever's" being announced/releasing with Pikmin 4, Bayonetta 3 and PSG Season 2 wtf.

 

[cashregister9]

This was one of the directs of all time

I don't really care about Pikmin or TOTK so those announcements kinda fell flat for me

BUT The Rune Factory 3 Port, A New Fire Emblem and Theaterhythm were all announced and each one looks great so I'm not complaining at all. Not to mention Bayonetta 3 and Harvestella which both look great.

Also No Bingo

 

[CannonStreak]

Donkey Kong fans found dead in Miami after this Direct, joining their F-Zero brethren.

I had to admit, that made me chuckle.

Thought I forgot about Donkey Kong until the end of the Direct, so I am not mad.

Some more footage and its official title call Tears of the Kingdom

We al know Chunky’s the one who dies.

 

[Mamboo07]

Finally Pikmin 4 real

 

[Speed Weed]

GOLDENEYE

PIKMIN 4

RADIANT SILVERGUN

LETS GO

 

[Diddy Kong]

The Fire Emblem leak being real gives me hope for DK still tho.

 

[CannonStreak]

GOLDENEYE

PIKMIN 4

RADIANT SILVERGUN

LETS GO

I especially can't wait for Goldeneye. Man, this is going to be good!

 

[Noipoi]

The Fire Emblem leak being real gives me hope for DK still tho.

I doubt it

 

[cashregister9]

Let's not forget Fist Of The North Star Fitness Boxing. Which was the real winner here

 

[Mushroomguy12]

Damn, that was a good Direct. Lots of great announcements.

 

[SnakeFighter64]

So like… Kirby port, good. Wish we had Tripple Deluxe and Planet Robobot with it but still, good.

Fitness Boxing of the North Star… hilarious

Tales of Symphonia remake. Cool. Might check that out.

Bayonetta 3 new look. Looks interesting. Need to check out the gameplay trailer.

GoldenEye 007 on NSO. Nice. But now that I’m seeing the Xbox version I’m wondering if that version is gonna be superior or not.

Pikmin 4, nice. Had a lot of surprise fun with 3. Looking forward to 4.

Theaterrhythm on switch looks cool! I can get hyped for that.

Is this fire emblem just a console adaptation of the mobile game?

No DK. No Metroid. No other IPs that fans want but realistically we can never actually expect because why would they actually make a new game in these series. And that’s kind of a bummer.

Lots of indie game announcements for some reason. That’s weird. Don’t they have their own presentation for those?

Edit: forgot about the battle league characters. Those are cool. Hope more of the dlc is like this.

 

[ZephyrZ]

I still don't know how I feel about this new FE game.

Really feels like they're pulling a lot from heroes, and while I don't hate heroes or anything, I'd still rather mainline FE be it's own thing.

Eh who am I kidding, I'll still probably put in 100+ hours anyway.

 

[Schnee117]

"Tears of the Kingdom" is probably why Nintendo didn't stream the direct in the UK lmaooooo

 

[Mushroomguy12]

I was genuinely terrified that the Pikmin segment was just going to be an ad for Pikmin Bloom before they showed Pikmin 4.

 

[Dukefire]

Can we appreciate about this remastered game for Kirby's 30th anniversary. King Dedede's design retain his recent look, GBA kirby minigames return, Mecha ability (reminder of Planet Robobot) and a remastered of the entire adventure with Magalor

 

[TheCJBrine]

Direct predictions:

• Pikmin 4
• Mother 3
• Twilight Princess and Wind Waker HD (insider said so so it must be true)
• Ice Climber action-adventure 3D platformer
• Super Mario Bros. starring Chris Pratt
• Minecraft 2 ft. Hatsune Miku
• Toby “Don’t call me ‘Toby ‘Radiation’ Fox’” “Radiation” Fox’s Underrune news
• Geno and Waluigi in Smash (as tag-team fighters in the same slot)
• Donkey Kong
• Gameboy Online (first games include Super Mario Land, Kirby’s Dream Land, and Link’s Awakening. If Pokemon GB gets added, it may be separate in the eShop idk)

I have the gift of prophecy (ignore everything except Pikmin 4).

Can’t wait for Bulbmin!

 

[osby]

Is this fire emblem just a console adaptation of the mobile game?

Nope, but it definitely seems to be borrowing some ideas from it, as well as maybe Warriors.

 

[Mushroomguy12]

Hype moments for me were Pikmin, Zelda, and Tales. Glad to see Pauline and Diddy in Strikers, but will probably wait for the full game to be finished before purchasing.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

My heart says pick whatever one is big man for the splatfest.. but my mind is saying Grub

 

[Noipoi]

WAIT WAIT WAIT

NO PRIME?

NO WW/TP??

AGAIN?

Who woulda thunk it???

I mean, it is cool. But I still wish they had done Triple Deluxe and Robobot too. Nintendo really misses out on opportunities to do collections and it’s frustrating when their legacy catalogue is often missing from their next main system.
