Around the Network

I can’t believe in writing this, but…Pokopia. It’s sort of Animal Crossing meets Story of Seasons meets Dragon Quest Builders, and I am totally into it.



That’s definitely going to have to be the Metroid trailer. I love how much it showed and how little it showed. I’ve avoided all the treehouse and gameplay footage trying to keep myself as blind as I can be going in, and I really appreciate that Nintendo and Retro aren’t just dumping everything on us…yet. Can’t believe we’re less than three months away from playing another Prime game.

Resident Evil, Yoshi & Metroid release date.



When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.

The release date for Hyrule Warriors. Originally announced for winter, it's now coming in fall.



Legend11 correctly predicted that GTA IV will outsell Super Smash Bros. Brawl. I was wrong.

The new Yoshi game. Looks like a true successor to Yoshi's Island. A little to Yoshi's Story too. Game looks charming and I'm looking forward to seeing how the stop motion animation looks. Looking forward to playing that with my daughter.



You called down the thunder, now reap the whirlwind

I'm kinda torn personally between finally getting a date for Prime 4 after all these years, and current gen Resident Evil returning to Nintendo for the first time since Gamecube.
Fatal Frame II is up there too as it's an amazing game, though I kinda wish it was a new entry as it's been over a decade now since Fatal Frame 5.



For me personally it was Yoshi and the Mysterious Book.

I've been a huge fan of the Yoshi series since the SNES and played pretty much all of the games except for one (which that will change likely before this game's release).

Here are the Yoshi games I played and what I scored them.

Yoshi's Island (SNES): 97
Yoshi's Story (N64): 83
Super Mario Advance 3 Yoshi's Island (GBA): 97
Yoshi's Island DS (NDS): 92
Yoshi's New Island (3DS): 87
Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World (3DS): 89



The new Yoshi for me. I'm expecting to enjoy Metroid Prime 4 MORE, but we already knew about the game and we knew it'd be releasing this year. Getting a release date was cool and all, but it didn't really affect my already existing hype in any way. A brand new Yoshi, though, that's super exciting! And the way it looks, it really seems like a true successor to Yoshi's Island to me, so that's exciting.



Dragon Quest 7, i saw the leaks so was expecting it but the artstyle is beautiful I love it its kinda like a movie style.

After that, FE Fortunes Weave looks really good and its linked to Three Houses somehow
