If you've had fun. Good for you. I can still say that the gyro stuff I've seen for Star Fox doesn't look fun at all and looks like it'll be an annoyance more than anything else.
I heard Splatoon has good gyro controls ^_^ (My friend loves using it)

I turned it off though....I wasn't used to it since it was my first Wii U game.

The worst Nintendo stuff was by far that Animal Crossing Amiibo party, and that Metroid spinoff for the 3DS. They should have just removed the Metroid license and passed it off as a new franchise, it probably would have been better received.

I'm also wary on that Zelda game for 3DS. Seems similar to Four Swords but with only 3 Links. We're up to 5 Zelda games on 3DS already (OOT, MM, A Link Between Worlds, Hyrule Warriors and this one), so I'm surprised its getting yet another Zelda.

You can't really blame them for that. There are a million times more 3DS's out there than Wii U's. Easier to develop for, too.

Nintendo's presentation was extremely lackluster, comparatively, but I'm not about to snub a multiplayer handheld Zelda. Not to mention top-down... HandheldasTM are my favorites. Four swords is insanely fun. I wish the DS anniversary release was as much fun as the original, but it's really not. =/



My roommate got to try Battlefront and said it's glorious. He also got to watch extra footage of The Last Guardian where you get to care for the big squishy monster. ;_; Writhing in jealousy.

Yeah, and 3 out of the 5 games are ports or remakes.

I don't understand what they're doing with the Animal Crossing games, so Home Designer is only a fraction of what you normally do on an AC game, counting you can easily get New Leaf in stores or the eshop for $20 I don't know what they're aiming to sell this for..It seems really barebones and requires the amiibo cards to be interesting..Same with the Wii U game, so it's like a party game but the amiibo are required...So are these games going to be free to download? The physical releases you just "pay" for the amiibo and a small extra fee for it? I mean I'm a big AC fan and don't wouldn't want to spend money on them..ten bucks at most.

I will however get some of the amiibo, Tom Nook has to be mine. I might also get K.K. Slider and Isabelle but I'm not sure. I would think they'd re-release Villager, I'd get him then. The amiibo cards I want them all but it'll depend on how much they cost, apparently they'll be sold in booster packs so I'm not sure how crazy I want to get with them if it's going to be near impossible to complete a set.

Edit: oh and Killer Instinct coming to PC, yay.

From what I can tell, those spinoffs are both full-price games. It's infuriating. I really hope they go down in price if you wait for a while before getting them. Amiibo wise, I MUST have Isabelle and KK Slider.

Nintendo for some reason did't have this in there E3 direct this morning guess they had to cut it for a lady talking about making plushies or something.

Animal Crossing is still a stake in my heart, even though Happy Home actually looks like an insane amount of fun. If you guys haven't checked it out yet, you really should, because it looks incredible.

F*ck that god damn board game. GOD!

Also, I'm going to keep reservations about Star Fox, because my first impression is that it looks cheap and unfun, but I won't lay judgement until I actually try it. My biggest issue is with the "look at the gamepad screen every moment" thing, which is something that drove me insane with Rainbow Curse. You had this unique and insanely beautiful art style oozing through in incredible definition on your TV...but you could never ever look at it and instead had to fully focus on the low-res Gamepad screen. I don't want Star Fox to be that, though from the looks of it the art style in SFZ (SF0? I like Z better) looks cheap and bland. SHOULDA MADE IT WITH PUPPETS!

Now there's a damn idea! It would've helped in the unique art style department at the very least!

Especially with them trying neat stuff with the Yarn series and Clay Kirby and Paper Mario before all that. Why not Felt Fox?

While I agree puppet Fox would have been adorable, I'm going to go out and say something I know I'm going to catch flack for:

I think yarn is ****ing ugly and I didn't get the Kirby yarn game and I won't get Woolly World either because of it.

It would've made sense. I remember Star Fox originally being a kinda creepy puppet-maquette.




I don't wanna play Wooly World as much as I want one of the cute plushie amiibos, but **** Nintendo for making amiibos such a **** show to get. If I can't walk into a store and buy it at retail, **** it.

You deserve flack for that, cause that's a bad opinion. That and anyone who thought the Nintendo puppets weren't charming as f*ck.

I'm pretty hyped about the Mario Maker. Whenever any game has some semblance of an edit mode, it gets at least 10 hours of additional gameplay from me, so an editor for Mario stages would definitely be worth my while. Plus I remember mapping out my own levels for Super Mario 3 when I was little, so I could finally bring those drawings to fruition...if I still had them. Oh well.

Typoman also looks like something I could sink my teeth into; and the enemies/bosses for Mutant Mudds almost make me want to check that out as well.

So glad someone else thinks this. I don't think the yarn is "ugly", but IMO it doesn't do Yoshi justice. I miss his games' cartoon aesthetics.

A Platinum Games that's currently in the middle of making like 3 games. What are the chances that Star Fox got the A team when Scalebound is going on, ya know?

Star Fox always struck me as the one Nintendo franchise that should have had a cartoon but never did. I'm really surprised Nintendo didn't try to get an anime or cartoon deal going around 1997-1998 when Starfox 64 was all the rage.

Although it might have turned out like that awful CG Donkey Kong Country cartoon from the 90's if it came out around then.
