Forums - Nintendo - NINTENDO DIRECT THIS THURSDAY!!!...... for 3DS...

This probably is another sign of the possibility of a hybrid in NX. With all these ports and installments being similar to one another (i.e., Mario Kart 7 and 8), it looks like Nintendo is seeking to ease consumers into this possibly new concept. Whether or not that's what they're doing I'm not exactly sure.

Why? Because a Mario Maker port with no online functionalities and a heavily downgraded port of Yoshi is on 3ds? Sure.

Who cares about games like Xenoblade X, Mario Kart 8, Tropical Freeze, 3DWorld, Pikmin 3, Bayonetta 2, Tokio Mirage Sessions, Pokken, Captain Toad or Splatoon now that Yoshi Wooolly World has a way uglier little brother on 3DS 2 years later?

We have Mario Kart 7 to answer 8, Pikmin 3DS, Super Mario 3D Land and Yoshi's Woolly World 3DS now. There's also numerous JRPGs to answer Xenoblade X (like the original) and multiple MegaTen games.

Pikmin 3ds to Combat pikmin 3? They are not even in the same genre! xD

Mk8 and Mario 3World are way superior than Mk7 and 3Dland, I have the 4 and is pretty obvious which are the best ones,  and there is no rpg that is even remotely close to the scope of XCX on 3ds appart from that Xenoblade remake that only works on N3ds.



Also, I love how they made all these amiibo announcements, yet still no info on Cloud, Corrin, and Bayonetta. :L



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

I love how you didn't answer my question, leaving me to assume Jumpin's answer is actually the answer. :L

Obviously they aren't exact, but I'm pointing that the Wii U does not provide that many unique experiences. There are definitely a few noteworthy games, but there are acceptable alternatives elsewhere.

If you cannot get the real thing, sure you can go for the alternatives. No real alternative for Splatoon anywhere though. I think 3Ds is a great console but is legacy does not undermine wiiu at all, as most of its comparable games are good but significantly inferior. 



I just noticed That FAST racing Neo and Stam world dig/heist are getting featured in the european selects lineup for wiiU.

They showed boxes and box art but called it e-shop selects at the same time, so I'm confused on wether or not they will get a physical release in EU. Would be nice, for sure.

Well, it was new news to me. That's cool to see them get physical releases though.

Upon further inspection I also noticed the fat writing saying: 'NOW ON WIIU DISK!'. :P

Why are people expecting Wii U and NX news for a 3DS Direct?

Fixed.
