I can confirm that having the base game physically w/ save data linked to my account, as well as having bought the DLC digitally on said account, results in no discount whatsoever for Age of Calamity Definitive Edition. Shit sucks. #NintendoDirect #HyruleWarriors

This Nintendo Direct was pretty good. It was largely saved by a new 2D Metroid and 3D open world Kirby, both of which look really fantastic, but getting some confirmations + release dates for old & new AAA stuff coming to Switch 2 was nice too. Not bad at all. #NintendoDirect

000

Oh my god an open world Kirby where all the copy abilities gain new mobility options to aid in exploration. Kirby and the World Beyond is gonna be THE cozy game on Switch 2, w/ a nice side of eldritch horror god murder. It looks so joyful. I can't wait. #NintendoDirect #Kirby #KirbyAndTheWorldBeyond

Wow Fatal Fury City of the Wolves is coming to Switch 2 way too late. Theoretically the best platform for fighting games and it took them so long to get this port out that it's already DOA w/ the player base being at discord fighter levels of size. #NintendoDirect #CotW

Playable Proto Man ala Zero in some Mega Man X games is cool. #NintendoDirect #MegaMan #MegaManDO #MegaManDualOverride

METROID DREAD 2 IS REAL! AND IT LOOKS SO FUCKING COOL! METROID RAVENOUS IS A GREAT TITLE FOR A SUPER SAIYAN METROID-FORM SAMUS GAME! AND WE'VE GOT A RELEASE DATE! I'M BEYOND HYPED!!!! #NintendoDirect #MetroidDread #Metroid #MetroidRavenous

Great to see the Resident Evil Remake trilogy coming to Switch 2. That was inevitable, but having a really close release date is nice. Def picking up 4 Remake again for mercenaries on the go. #NintendoDirect #Switch2 #Capcom #ResidentEvil

000

Oh hey Pikmin 4 is finally getting a Switch 2 edition. Too bad I'd literally rather off myself than play that shitty disgrace of a Pikmin game ever again. #NintendoDirect #Pikmin4

Nintendo's priorities with GameCube releases on NSO is so weird. XD before Colosseum is bizarre to say the least, but if they're willing to put sequels first to get the best games out right away then what's up with Star Fox Adventures coming before Assault? Idk. #NintendoDirect

000

Age of Calamity getting the Age of Imprisonment treatment with more enemies and 60fps is great, but it being a separate game instead of an Switch 2 edition is a problem as that "discount" for existing owners means nothing if you own it physically. Real scummy move #NintendoDirect

000

It'll be interesting to see how Monster Hunter Wilds runs on Switch 2. On one hand Capcom has been THE AAA studio for Switch 2 performance, but on the other hand Monster Hunter Wilds runs like shit. #NintendoDirect #MonsterHunterWilds #Switch2

That Nintendo Direct sucked. I know it was purely Zelda focused and we're getting a more general one tomorrow, but even then there was just nothing to it. The music video tribute at the start was genuinely the best bit by a mile. #NintendoDirect #Zelda #ZeldaDirect #OoT

000

So uhhhh... The 3DS remake of The Ocarina of Time is genuinely still the best version. The new S2 remake has some modern niceties like gyro aiming and quick swap, but so does the 3DS while also having a much more focused and appealing visual identity. #NintendoDirect #Zelda #OoT #ZeldaDirect

000

Crazy how everything is either avoiding November or is gonna get cannibalized by two big releases.

000

Being able to hum songs, or even play your own Ocarina, with the Ocarina of Time remake is really silly. Honestly perfect for younger kids. #OoT #OcarinaOfTime #NintendoDirect #Zelda #ZeldaDirect #TLoZ

000

Navi talking to the player seems to be optional, but with the caveat of an annoying slow flashing icon on screen whenever she has shit to say even if you've already heard it. I hope you can disable that while keeping the rest of the hud, but I doubt it #NintendoDirect #OoT #Zelda #ZeldaDirect

000

I was on the side of defending the initial reveal of The Ocarina of Time remake visuals, but now that we've got some gameplay all the people comparing to those lazy "Mario in Unreal Engine" posts were right. It's so unappealing. (1/2) #NintendoDirect #Zelda #ZeldaDirect #OoT #TLoZ

They're really announcing all the "who gives a shit" stuff right at the start while they have momentum from the musical tribute to run off. Too bad that also killed all of that momentum. #NintendoDirect #Zelda #ZeldaDirect

000

Treating the "reveal" of The Legend of Zelda movie being called The Legend of Zelda like a big drop is so unintentionally funny. #NintendoDirect #Zelda #ZeldaDirect

000

The Legend of Zelda 40th Anniversary Nintendo Direct starts with a great musical tribute to the series. I figured they'd do something like that, but they really nailed it right at the start. #NintendoDirect #Zelda #ZeldaDirect

You gotta fucking love, and I mean LOVE, Square Enix to think that was a good State of Play. So much shit we already knew about and mediocre trailers that failed to impress. It really felt like they put this out just to fit some arbitrary internal timeline. #StateOfPlay

000

Really hard to tell if DaBa: Land of Water Scar (what in the google translate is that name) has genuinely solid combat or if it's all style over substance. Stellar Blade had the same issue with many of its trailers. Time will tell ig. Hope it gets a demo eventually. #StateOfPlay #DaBaLandOfWaterScar

000

Slash Zero looks cool, but I'm not a fan of how they're handling the demo. Don't get me wrong, I love a substantial demo that shows off a game in full effect, but having people play 10hr of a game MONTHS before it actually launches is so dumb. (1/2) #StateOfPlay #SlashZero

100

Sony seems to think that dragging out the State of Play to make it as long as possible will make people think it was more substantial, and that probably works on morons, but it really just makes watching the damn thing a chore & kills the hype of new announcements. #StateOfPlay #PlayStation #PS5

000

STOP HAVING OBVIOUSLY BORED, UNTALENTED ANNOUNCERS TALK OVER GAME FOOTAGE! IT DOESN'T HELP! #StateOfPlay #NintendoDirect

000

"Oh damn this game looks cool! I'm digging that roaring 30's jazzy setting/style!" *All semblance of said style disappear immediately with a more generic fantasy look taking its place. Same with most settings.* "Oh... ok then..." #StateOfPlay #RhapsodyInScarlet

Companions with horrendous "relatable" writing (I think it's called "millennial writing" now?) is one of the worst things to ever happen to gaming. #GundamRogueOrbit #Gundam #RogueOrbit #StateOfPlay

"Hey man, do you think a remake of Final Fantasy 1 will sell? Not many people have nostalgia for that one." "Don't worry, I've got a solution." "Please don't say it." "PUT SEPHIROTH IN IT!" #StateOfPlay #FF1 #FinalFantasyResonance

000

Ghost of Yotei getting a rouge-like survival mode is neat. Definitely the kinda thing you'd want in a series with better combat, but it's neat. Jin returning and instantly having 10X the aura of everybody else, especially miss side-cut, is also really funny #StateOfPlay #GoT #GoY #PS5
