Eh, no. But it wasn't as bad as some are saying. It was a press conference, thoroughly so. And it was hosted in Japan. I knew most of it would be dry and somewhat boring and there would be a lot of talking. It had some very good content I am very, very much looking forward to. There are points of concern, waiting to see how it pans out as the information continues to flow the coming days. Overally, not bad. Not super duper amazing, but good enough that I'm still excited.

Honestly, the absolute biggest problem I had was the darn translators.  Rather than have one good one they tried to have a ton translate for different people, which resulted in 75% of the talking being HORRIBLY stuttery and dry and sometimes muttering.

My biggest disappointment (and offense) is that most of these games could (and should) be on the Wii U.

Thought it was solid overall, since only the games are what drive my opinion, Mario Odyssey, Splatoon 2, Zelda, etc. gave me a positive opinion. Comparing to Nintendo presentations from the past, this was one of the better ones.

Price, online fee are kinda meh. Battery may be an issue, they kinda dodged it by saying 2.5- 6 hours. But with Zelda, Mario and Spaltoon in 2017 I can't not buy one.

Edit: Also some decent new games and ports that I'll also be playing.

Same as Ktay.

Not spectacular but not bad either I'll say around a 7/10, the price seems to be a common thing I'm seeing but in UK that's £250 which is very heavily affordable in the country, launch line up is an issue although Zelda may make the masses not care but the software line up overall is heavily to my taste, I imagine if you're into western games the presentation would fall short. Surprised MK got left out:

Zelda
Mario Odyssey
Xenoblade 2
Dragon Quest XI
DQ Heroes
Fire Emblem Warriors (called this one when it emerged Koei had something on the way)
Skyrim portable
SFII HD
Splatoon 2
SMTV
Arms (actually really like the look of this, I'm also into and train in boxing funny enough)

Zelda was the only thing that blew me away, Mario looked great but isn't coming out until the holiday season. 

Edit: overall presentation was bad.

I expect to see more games at e3 digital event. That will explain the shortage of games.



Bet with Intrinsic:

The Switch will outsell 3DS (based on VGchartz numbers), according to me, while Intrinsic thinks the opposite will hold true. One month avatar control for the loser's avatar.
