After much speculation this finally happened at a really short notice

Short and very sweet, imo. A solid lineup so far, though a lot is just updates and new DLC for launched games

Nintendo is basically porting ever single Wii U game, since that console never happened

TWEWY and Dark Souls are complete surprises for me

9/10

7/10

Average. Not Amazing. Especially for a 14 minute Mini Direct.

If it wasn't for the leaks of a Dark Souls Remastered being rumored and leaked prior. It would have caught everyone off-guard imo.

TWEWY with enhancements and a new extra story is also a complete surprise if not for rumors of the game making another appearance on the Switch.

Nintendo is porting some of their best games from the WiiU with some enhancements.

I'm hoping Retro wasn't working on just the upgrade of Tropical Freeze for all these years, and am interested in trying out SNK: Heroines when it releases.

Was hoping for a bit more, but I think Nintendo is saving some things for their E3 Direct, especially with how they will likely detail their Paid Online Services and probably games to go along with that in Fall/Winter 2018.

For a Mini Direct it deserves a 7/8 in my opinion.
For the amount of hype people built up for it and people thinking it would be a full blown direct I understand someone for rating it 6/5.

The biggest question still remains. Where the heck was "a way out"?

8

I want to buy most of what was shown.

7 - very solid Direct with a number of games I want (a minimum of 5, possibly 7 depending on reviews). I'd have preferred specific release dates for Mario Tennis and Hyrule Warriors, rather than the vague "Spring" window. I'm also hoping future Directs this year will have a heavier emphasis on new titles over ports.

For a "mini" I thought it was packed with news and diverse assortment of games. 8/10

7/10. A lot of new stuff I'm mildly interested in, but nothing major to elevate it that much. Still, why are w getting the SNK Fighting game instead of the actual King of Fighters?

7.If it wasn't for the leaks,no one would have any problem with this one.Also,i believe that the majority of this games will do well.Since i didn't had a wii u,they're all new games to me.And portable dark souls,sure.

I give it a 7. Some cool announcements.
