Seeing that the other Nintendo Direct thread is a bit of a mess (at least IMO), I thought it would be a good idea to create a thread that keeps tabs of ongoing and future Nintendo Directs. Think of this thread as a binder with dividers. You can stream Nintendo Directs at: http://www.twitch.tv/nintendo http://www.nintendo.com/nintendo-direct Recent Nintendo Direct: April 1st @ 3PM PST / 4 PM MST / 5 PM CST / 6 PM EST Spoiler: click to toggle Past Nintendo Directs: January 14th -Fire Emblem IF unveil -Amiibo Smash wave 4 and Mario Bros wave, Mario Party 10 bundle, Project STEAM's FE amiibo usage -Splatoon and Xenoblade Chronicles X trailers -NA N3DSXL announced, Monster Hunter and Majoras Mask N3DSXL bundles Nintendo Direct Archival Page Edited by MidiPour, Apr 1 2015, 06:03 PM.

The main thing I got out of the direct is that Nintendo is obviously putting a lot behind Splatoon and looks like they are going to be adding to and supporting the game for some time after lunch. The parts of the game they talked about I feel like they have already covered. Admittedly it nice to have all in one message rather than a little here and a little over there.

I hate to be a prick but what is there to get excited over with this game? Like the only thing I can think of is "oh finally a reason to turn on my Wii U after I beat the handful of amazing (mostly single player) titles it has to offer. The only thing new I see is diving into the ink to move quickly. Aside from that it looks like a shit tier third person arena shooter. If I wanted a shooter I'm covered incredibly well on Xbox One, PS4, and Steam. |

Speaking for me personally excited may not necessary be the work I use, interested to seeing what happens with it definitely. Well I do enjoy FPSs is isn’t what I would call my go to genera, so many times I find the systems and communities of FTP games intimidating. For that reason the smaller size and scope of the game appears to me. I also like the fact the goal of the game is not to just kill the other team but to claim territory. The bright toony art style helps to; I have always preferred stylized graphics of realistic. Will I have a genuine interest in the game I will admit that if this came out during a busier time of the year I may not be as interested in. As it is the last few big games like Mortal Kombat, Battlefield and bloodborne I had no interest in, so I haven’t bought a new game in a little bit and looking down the line I am not seeing one either. So I kind of want to buy a new game. Lastly fuck you. O look people are interested in something that I am not, let me crap all over it for one reason. Remind me to crap all over the next military shooter you want, that plays identical to last year’s version. Edit: I also feel like you are not giving the ink diving enough credit. The fact that you can go up walls and stuff like that could end you giving that ability a lot the traversal possibilities. Edited by Unclever, May 7 2015, 10:49 PM.

Your first paragraph is fair enough and I can understand that. Maybe I came off with the wrong tone in my sentence but chill out. It's a fuckin video game dude, I think it's more acceptable to insult a video game than a person. You can insult the latest COD or Battlefield all you want, I couldn't care less since I love those games. I'm just asking why people think this looks good which your first paragraph at least explained, and what I was interested in hearing. I also just tend to curse as part of my vocabulary so that could make it read more negative than I intend to be. Okay I didn't know you could go up walls at least, so that's something new. Just the bits of gameplay I watch it looks dull. For the amount of hype it's getting I'm just not seeing it (from someone who likes anything shooter) unless the people are like you who aren't into the Battlefields, BloodBornes, MK's etc and want something more unique.

Well, this isn't your typical shooter. This is a Nintendo developed arena shooter, which means it will have its quirks and uniqueness to say the least. Personally I can't wait to sink my teeth into this one. I have alot of friends that are committed to buying it so I'll be playing it quite a bit, if it delivers. They are releasing a demo playable Friday and Saturday which will confirm if I preorder or not. Sure, this doesn't appeal to the BF or CoD crowd, I really dont think its supposed to either. Graphics have their own great style, the gameplay is one of a kind. There are many different game modes, different activities to do, games to play while waiting for an online match, and its own special line of amiibo. I am definitely a big fan of shooters in general and this looks great to me. |

^ Nice dude, lucky. I don't have any friends who have a Wii U irl. Pretty much just Xbone which is a bummer since I prefer PS4. I do want to try it I just wish that demo was available for a longer period of time since I won't be able to dabble in it at those times. I don't mind the graphics at all I like Nintendo's cartoon-ey shit just the third person shooting looks bland, but maybe it feels better when actually playing. |

This pretty much sums it up, which can be read as good or bad. Usually Nintendo games are quality titles that receive a lot of attention from media and gamers, and the consumer as a whole trusts Nintendo developed games in general, seeing this is a new IP being dev'd by Nintendo helps tremendously. I know I've said this before, If this game were to release on Steam, it probably wouldn't have received the same level of attention early on until people started playing the game and realizing it is a quality title, and then you'd probably see it on the front page of Steam. On the topic of whether this game is generic. From what I've played, it's fun and works well with the controls, and the ideas/appearance here are pretty enjoyable and well designed. People have stated Splatoon is to shooters as Mario Kart is to racers, and I can see that statement after playing the game. Do I think it will have the lasting replay value of games with a high depth of meta? Well, maybe not to the point where you'll see people watching the Twitch streamers no life the game or theorycraft heavily like they do for Blizzard games, but I'm sure people wont be disappointed or shelf it any differently than Mario Kart. |

So apparently there was a Nintendo direct today (June 1, 2015). Chibi-Robo! Zip Lash coming it October -It is a 2D platformer for the 3DS. No exactly the same thing as the original but happy to see another Chibi-Robo that is not a weird camera thing. Also it comes with the most adorable amiibo ever. Seriously, this is on my top 3 must have amiibos. Dr. Mario Miracle Cure coming on June 11 on the eshop. Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon coming out this winter Mario & Sonic 2016 Olympic Games for 3DS and WiiU Splatoon will get an update for a new map, weapon and will be opening ranked battles. -Considering I just make a post about this it is great to hear. If I understand things correctly opening up ranked battles will also add 2 more modes. Art Academy: Home Studio coming to the WiiU June 25. Project Treasure trailer is available to watch. -I don't know what this game is or for that matter even heard about it. They didn't show a trailer of the game they just announced that you can go some place else on the internet and watch a trail of the game. I didn't bother to go find the trailer. Nintendo World Championships June 14 3:00 PM PT LBX: Little Battlers eXperience coming to the 3DS August 21. -This is a game based on some anime I have never heard of that was obviously make so they could sell toys to kids. Despite that it just looks like an arcady mech game with a lot of customizing in it. It could end up being fun. Puzzle & Dragons Z + Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition will get updates for weekly challages. Bravely Second coming next year. Edited by Unclever, Jun 2 2015, 08:57 PM.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think any announcements have been made yet, though it seems likely that they will be a part of the last wave of Smash Bros. amiibo since they are two of the few unreleased ones left. |
