Twilight Princess HD w/ Wolf Link amiibo Mar. 4th
I first read this as "Twilight Princess HD w/ Wolf amiibo Mar. 4th" and I was like why are they packing in a StarFox character in a Zelda game.

I will watch this later but you would have thought that they would have tried to push this out for the holiday just because they have nothing else going on. Also I hope they take out the gray filter in that game and added some color.

Some great news this direct. I can honestly say it surprised me. Glad I was able to get my pre-orders in for Zelda, Mega Man, and Fire Emblem. Scalpers acted quickly as usual.

CLOUD STRIFE IN SMASH 4. YES. BRING IT ON. I AM A FANBOY AND I DON'T EVEN CARE.

Tons and tons of other things in this Direct to write home about, though. Amiibos on parade, like Gold Mega Man and Wolf Link+Midna. Loved Twilight Princess HD, and even though that was all but confirmed, it was nice to see it get a trailer to show off the goods. It'll be fun going through that game again with updated visuals, even with its flaws (Y U NO USE SPINNER MOAR NINTENDO??). Star Fox Zero looks better and better each time we see it, and my trigger finger is just itching to blast enemies out of the Lylat System. Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam looks hilarious. The Dragon Quest announcements were stellar, too. Can't wait to finally play through Dragon Quest VII...though I find that people rarely talk about that one. Fire Emblem Fates has an awesome Collector's Edition that's basically a must-own for anyone wanting to play the three stories of that saga, since it combines them all together. Final Fantasy Explorers also looks spectacular, and I really can't wait to get my hands on that Collector's edition either. I'm also interested in Pokken Tournament like crazy. Being able to duke it out and make Pokemon battles play out the way the RPGs can't show looks amazing, even with the limited roster.

Long story short, this Direct hurts my wallet. Badly. But in the good kind of way.

Speaking for myself, I can't help it. It's a curse. But I want me some DQ. I also want some Dragon Quest VII with that ice cream that I'd get there.

I'm really curious to know Nintendo's logic behind adding Cloud to Smash. Like, of course they'll get a butt-load of money from everyone buying the character, but they're also just advertising a PS4/Xbone game, right? Right?

Still super frustrated that Amiibo Festival wasn't an actual Animal Crossing Wii U. Still super frustrated that Paper Jam wasn't just Paper Mario Wii U (though I do love the title). Other than that, pretty good Direct. Twilight Princess HD is so unnecessary when there are so many other games that could have benefited from it way more (Mario Sunshine, anyone?). Mario Tennis looks like Mario Tennis so that's fine. I think we've seen Xenoblade X so many darn times that the effect has worn off on so many people, they probably should have waited til closer to release to announce it to begin with. I really have a desire to play Splatoon again now. The Mario Maker website is a good idea, there was no way to navigate levels without having the codes, so this was much-needed. Definitely interested in Pokken Tournament, Star Fox, Final Fantasy, Fire Emblem (though the whole 3 game and pricing thing is odd), and the Dragon Quests to some extent, though not a crazy amount. Getting the original Pokemons on the 3DS and being able to trade like old times is pretty neat, though, I might jump on that.

The problem is, there's no one else that offers what Nintendo offers. If you want any sort of Nintendo experience, you're sticking with Nintendo. It's not easy to replace that with Microsoft or Sony, they're completely different experiences.

Andsy you should sign up for Secret Santa sometime so that we can all buy you a box full of Amiibos.

I wonder if they'll fix the glitch in the first gen pokemon games where you can't (or well, you can but the game glitches out) trade pokemons between carts from different regions. I'll most likely get Green on my JP 3DS since I haven't played that one and Blue on my NA 3DS since I only had Red (out of the first gen pokemon games) on the OG Game Boy when that came out. Would be cool if they fixed that glitch so that I could trade between them.

While I've slowed down a ton on buying 3ds games, I'm really excited to see DQ7 and DQ8 coming, plus Fire Emblem looks great. May end up picking up the Final Fantasy game as well in the future. This was a nice surprise.

To be honest I don't even know what that is yet as I didn't see the whole direct, just those specific segments, but from the lol at the end I'm guessing it's nothing important?

Nintendo Badge Arcade has been out for a while on the JP 3DS. You get free tokens once a week which is usually accompanied with new themes created for a newly released Nintendo game. I login and play the crane game (takes like 1-2 min) whenever I get free tokens so I have a bunch of those badges by now, lol. It's kind of a throwaway app, I wouldn't even consider it a "game" tbh.

I got around to watching this and I don’t think I am impressed as much as most here (but more impressed than AndsyRR is).

First Zelda:TP-HD, now I know this is a 2 generation old game but was expecting a facelift to do a little more for this game. Maybe that fact that the HDification of WindWaker ended up doing more for that game than I would have thought make me expect too much.

Well I am very excited about Mario:Paper Jam, Xenoblade X and Fire Emblem, I knew about all this stuff and they didn’t really show me anything new.

I am still very much on the fence about Star Fox but I will say that I am more interested in it now then when I first heard about it.

Woo! :D This makes me so happy. This is my favorite Zelda and I usually play through it once a year, but it has been a pain the last two times since it looks terrible.
I wonder what happened with Starfox though considering up until a month or two ago its original release date was in two weeks.

A 3rd party Nintendo, is a better Nintendo.

I want Nintendo to go third party so badly. Just look at Starfox Zero - having to use gyro to aim is one of the most moronic feature to a video game simply to make it different, not better. If it were on PS4, it wouldn't look like a 2005 360 game. Also, it would use an adequate controller.

I just can't picture a 3rd party Nintendo. Decades of Nintendo consoles has Nintendo software so hand-in-hand with its hardware in my mind.
