I kept having this confused reaction towards chibi robo. I wanted to be excited for it but just.....wasn't. I think the gameplay actually looks interesting and fun but the presentation is so lifeless. I kept thinking how generic the art direction looks on this and thought of stuff like Yoshis wolly world, Donkey Kong and Rayman. I know not the best grounds for comparison, since they're all wiiU titles but even that freaking block game had a more distinctive style. This looks so...middle of the road. :/
This would be amazing as a 3d platformer with an art direction like Pikmin though.

As for the rest of the micro direct, basically YAY SPLATOON!
Level 5 with another cash cow franchise that looks very high quality but lacks the charm of their older titles (yes, I want my layton back).
Dr. Mario looks like it's still fun but not for me. I like the special cure mechanic though.
Pokemon looks good.
So does Sonic vs. Mario surprisingly.
