I've got to say, this poll is surprising me.
Nintendo fans are usually pretty good at calling these things for what they are and therefore end up bringing the number down by a full point. The fact that the largest number of votes is going to the "9" rating is pretty crazy. Of course, this is probably because most fans managed their expectations and the meat of this Direct truly defied them.
The real surprise for me, though, is that the other fanbases don't seem to be attempting to rain on this parade. Certainly there are 6 votes for 1's, which is just objectively impossible. That's cool...every poll needs an option to steer away the haters. Some of those even may have picked the 3's, and 4's. But given the legion of Sony fans on this site, it would seem they are at least voting somewhat positively, otherwise the bottom and the top of this poll would be identical. It's great to see support and recognition on content alone without the usual biases in many forums.
Bottom line, though, is that this wasn't E3. There was nothing to win or lose for the other companies. This is just a Direct and it means nothing. What it does mean, though, is that Nintendo fans will have a great 2019 regardless of the genre they play. It's a good time to be a NIntendo fan and a great time to be a gamer. At least for the time being this hobby is about games and game announcements and not about polygon counts, terraflops, or gpus or cpus. It's about quality product being developed across the board that would make gamers from yesteryear's heads explode. |
Well, I'm very much a Nintendo fan and I gave it a 4. But yeah, I play Smash, what do I know.

I think your comment supports my statement about Nintendo fans being over critical of Nintendo.
But seriously, you gave it a 4? What would have made you give it a 5 or even a 6?
I'd think if you were such a Smash fan you would have really enjoyed the reveal of Isabelle.
