I feel like you and I have swapped places on this haha, last few Directs/months its been me who wasn't too thrilled and you who was the more positive one!

Anyway, Ocarina being leaked beforehand doesn't make it less of a good announcement IMO, and Xenoblade Genesis is a welcome bone to the core fanbase who may not be into Switch Sports or Pokopia. While it is a 2027 release, it is kinda nice (for me anyway) to see them not keeping it secret til the last minute like they sometimes do nowadays, and which I'm not a fan of.

I'm feeling more positive about Switch 2's lineup after this show personally, while I was quite wary and skeptical prior. This year's not the strongest lineup they've ever had, but I actually think it beats Switch 1's 2018.

Y’know, I was thinking the exact same thing lol! Regarding us kinda having swapped places. But yea, I totally 100% agree that the lineup this year is pretty darn solid. I was just a bit wary on how I felt about the Direct.

In any case, we did get Xeno Genesis, Xeno Chronicals Remastered (pretty much), Fire Emblem info, and Ocarina. And with that, I’m very happy.

Yeah as a big Xenoblade fan Genesis was the game of the show for me; Splatoon Raiders is also looking like a lot of fun, and as a Wii guy Sports Resort looks like something I'd enjoy.

Plus, the third party lineup for 2026 beats any Nintendo system in the last 30 years IMO.
