7.5 out of 10. (Same score I gave Sony, both of which were nowhere near as bad as some people are claiming it to be.)
What they showed off looked great. I'm excited for Fire Emblem. Super Mario Party looks promising. I'm excited for the Xenoblade 2 DLC as a Xenoblade fan. FighterZ is on Switch, hell yeah! I was holding off on buying it to see if a Switch version would be announced, sure enough, here it is. So I'm getting it for Switch!
Smash... I mean what else is there to say that hasn't been said already? They spent a little too much time on it. But, it's Smash Bros. So, I don't care. And they went from game to game, with little to no fluff in between, the pacing and structure was like your usual Nintendo Direct and MUCH, MUCH better than the layout of Sony's conference.
Overall, what they showed and how they showed it was great. The problem was that it wasn't enough. I was expecting more. Come on, Nintendo. We know you have more games and footage at your disposal. Where's Yoshi? Where's Travis Strikes Back? Where's Bayonetta 3? Where's Metroid Prime 4? Pikmin 4??? New Animal Crossing??? Retro's new game?!? Why are you holding out on us, Nintendo?
Think of it like... And this is going to sound like an extremely bizarre and odd comparison, mostly because it is, but bare with me here. Think of it like having sex and you stop right before you reach the apex. It felt really good, it was really enjoyable, but ended much sooner than you were hoping it would, leaving you ultimately unsatisfied.
