Year of dissapointment, I'm still giving E3 to Nintendo, but that wasn't great.

When people cool off they'll realise the two best announcements were literally "pokemon is a thing" and "look here's a logo.".

Remember that they already annoucned a ton in January. A new Mario. A new Xenoblade. FE Warriors.  And it looks like they're all delivering on the promise of coming this year.

Switch is less than 4 months old and 2017 is positively loaded with games.

I think it was the best conference in term of presentation but nothing crazy. If they had actual footage for pokemon and metroid, it would have been amazing. Just the announcement is very underwhelming.

2 games for 2018 based on smaller franchises
2 announced games that are not coming out in 2018 - and i was told Nintendo only focus on the short term; only i couldn't see Nintendo's new ways...

What. a. poor. showing.

Decent at best.

Nintendo made announcements for games that will come out in a year or more, and what makes matters worst is that the announcement was just by words.

A Mario game themed after early 1900s New York.

I love Nintendo so much.

Wait, the site didn't crash?

The stream?  No, it just abruptly ended after Odyssey.

Personally, I think Nintendo won E3.

Just my opinion though, I won't push it on anyone. 🙂

Well, that was a Direct, certainly. Lots of talking, especially with Reggie explaining to us what games are. Thanks, Reggie, but I already know.

One big announcement and ... not even a teaser image?

I don't think so. Smash 4 sold very well. Best selling smash of all time when you include 3DS. I'd rather them start on a new Smash for release way later on.

Mario Kart 8 sold really well also. And the thing is, they've invested in expensive liscenses for Smash 4. They could save a lot of money reusing them and milking further.

Yeah but they probably felt that MK8 was the best MK they'd ever made. And it sold about half of what MK7 did and a quarter of MKWii. A strong case could made that millions of people are out there who would love MK8 but didn't get to play it.

That case is less strong for Smash IMO.

We've never had two Mario Karts on one console, so I'm betting that we don't see another one on Switch. Smash is the same way and I'd be surprised if they used up the entry on both franchises on ports of Wii U versions. Just my read.

Pretty solid, loving Yoshi and Kirby, and Xenoblade 2 remains 2017, buuuuuuuuuut still no Animal Crossing. This is seriously concerning now. I can only hope it's late 2018 and they didn't wanna show anything past first half 2018, but they even announced Metroid Prime 4 despite having nothing to show for it, and told us that a mainline Pokemon is in the works.
