Nope, not here in europe. All we got so far in the last ND was 'summer', now it wasn't even mentioned.

Still buzzin! Incredible lineup, wow Nintendo.. wow. I mean SMT4, Yoshi's Island, Mario Party, Bravely Default, and Link to the Past 2 all in one ND?! Plus all the release dates and gameplay footage. Incredible. Even if you're not excited for all the mentioned games, that's still amazing.

Only bad thing is that they probably can't and won't top this up with the next ND. Thanks Nintendo!

We don't know that at all, there was no Direct in March, and with E3 in June I doubt they'd do a Wii U focussed Direct just a motnh before.

Nintendo Direct is seriously the best thing Nintendo's ever done. The 3DS, if Pokemon X and Y are any good, will be my favourite console of all time. I'm happy they're spreading it all year round instead of just E3. New Yoshi looks amazing, as does LTTP2 and everything else announced. About damn time for Earthbound, I won't have to pull out my SNES everytime I want to play it now. Though now the 3DS is this incredible, I'm thinking E3 will be a Wii U showcase and make that as fantastic as 3DS.

^How could Pokemon XY not be good? If you found the previous games good, then it can only be the same case here. :)

Well, the 5th Gen was the 2nd best to date, and the 6th Gen can only be better then that.

So we don't need to sway ROFLMAO.

Which game? never heard of it. And I have played all real games that contain Yoshi.

^We also didn't need to bring up the "which Pokemon game is best" debate again. :P
All they're doing is building on each other so if you like one you'll like them all.

Well the 4th Gen was basically a stripped down version of the previous gens, while 5th Gen was short but true new installment to the franchise with almost just as many hours, or close enough LOL.

The 4th gen was like a tear down.

^Again, the vague "X is bad/lame/inferior while Y is better/awesome/superior cause I say so!" thing doesn't really mean anything. Third time you've said this lol. I could easily say the same about anything, but without cold hard facts, it's just an baseless n hollow opinion. Diamond n Pearl has better graphics (important in games like this where you're passively watching your inputs), more refined battle system (whether an attack is physical or special is no longer dependant on the type), the same Pokemon from previous games in addition to new ones, and most importantly, online battling and trading. These are undisputable facts that make it better than previous games. You may like Emerald more, which is fine, but that doesn't mean it's better. I like Diamond n Pearl more than Black n White, but I certainly wouldn't say D n P is better than them. B n W has everything D n P does but more, so D n P can't possibly be better. Same as how D n P have everything Emerald does and more, making them better. And pretty soon we'll have X n Y which'll be everything B n W was but more. Notice the trend here? That's what I meant when I said the games build on each other, like most games in a series.
