Giant *yawn* from me.

Pretty much my reaction. No biggie though, not that I was expecting anything for me anyway.

I thought it was a pretty good Partner Direct.

The only think that was missing was The Plucky Squire, I hoped to see a release date.
Luckily Devolver posted a new gameplay trailer for it recently, but still no release date.

I figure they'll show it in their next Indie World showcase

I saw a lot of negative criticism on YouTube about this one, but I liked a lot of what I saw on this one. Definitely giving me a reason to keep an eye out for them on the EShop over the next couple of months.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

For a partner direct? Impressive. Wasn’t expecting Sonic Mania’s team to shadow drop their big title, nor for bigger announcements along the lines of Epic Mickey or Endless Ocean to be included. (Plus all those Rare games added to NSO will be good fun. :)…and some hope for Mother 3.)

Yeah a very solid Partner Direct. Some exclusives too.

Nintendo Japan will never give the World Mother 3. It's sad to have games locked behind region specificity.

I heard some people predicting this could get a western release. I really hope so. It looks awesome. I think its from the same people who made the older Goemon games.

I decided to import this one from Japan. It just looks really great to me. I heard it sold bad in Japan as well. Lack of marketing, so this may become a rare and expensive game in the future. Still hope it gets a western release though.
