After having a little time to sit and think about it, I would give this Nintendo direct a respectable 7 out of 10 ✊ My Top four announcements were: 1. Mario and Luigi Brothership 2. Legend of Zelda echoes of wisdom 3. 100 defense 4. Metroid prime 4 beyond
I love how Looney Tunes Wacky World of Sports is being called shovelware when the Mario sports games on Switch have been lackluster asf. I remember being a little hyped for Nintendo Switch Sports back in 2022 when it got revealed, but I quickly lost interest in it. The graphics in the new Looney Tunes game don't look great, but the gameplay looks decent. I also feel like Go Vacation is underrated asf, but I guess since it isn't a Nintendo IP, people don't care for it.
Love you bro but shitting on Phantom Brave is a huge L. The original was an absolute hidden gem on the PS2 for tactics RPG enjoyers and a sequel to it is on the same level as a lot of other announcements in this Direct when it comes to how exciting it was and how impossible it seemed, just a lot more niche.
I WENT INTO THIS DIRECT WITH PRETTY MODEST EXPECTATIONS BUT HOLY SHIT WE GOT A BRAND NEW MARIO AND LUIGI GAME, NEW 2D ZELDA GAME WHERE ZELDA'S THE MAIN CHARACTER, THE BIGGEST MARIO PARTY GAME YET AND METROID PRIME 4 REVEAL FOR 2025!!! WE HAD A FUCKING FEAST THIS DIRECT
I feel like me being interested in almost half of a whole Direct is an insane thing but somehow they did it how did they cook THIS hard bro it's actually crazy THEY COOKED UP A BANQUET

MF’s really don’t know how monumental this Marvel vs Capcom sh!t is. For THE ENTIRE MF FGC! Per MVC1 : 4p CROSS FEVER MODE from Dreamcast MVC1 …. Hope they included that !!!!! Also coming soon hopefully : STREET FIGHTER 3 COLLECTION !!!!! Featuring : All 3 titles and all revisions/versions of each. All available in normal or WIDESCREEN. Widescreen mode opens up entire new strategies, and even possible parallel WIDESCREEN tournaments, with different tier lists. And toggle between their original OST’s and Arranged OST’s (PS2 Arranged 3rd Strike OST is highly underrated) (SF3: New Generation Arranged Album is also highly underrated/under-appreciated) Ability to play stages/theme-songs from NG, 2i, or 3s, in the other entries. For example: Playing WIDESCREEN 3rd Strike, on Elena’s 2i “Night Bridge” stage with that dope “Tomboy” song. Or WIDESCREEN 3rd Strike, on Necro’s 2i train lab stage, with that dope DNB song. CANNOT WAIT !
Y'know, the fact that the switch is near the end of it's lifecycle and they're showing us stuff like a new Mario & Luigi game(just give them time to actually remake the first three)Donkey Kong Country Returns HD(with 3DS exclusive levels included)a new Zelda game where you play as the princess herself(canon or it's own continuity, you decide)Luigi's 2 HD release date(why the second game instead of the first, it probably has something along the lines of "we want to see if it could work so it's not another Luigi's Mansion 1 3DS situation" adding Gooigi as a player 2 character in the port didn't help either, other than that, it's only 4 days away by the time I post this)Marvel VS Capcom collection *AND* Metroid Prime 4 all in one direct kinda proves that the switch successor will be backwards compatible
I remember someone saying that 2024 would be a "filler year for video-games" because they were a big GTA fan and for them if GTA 6 is only releasing 2025 then nothing matters But if that's what he thinks... LOL, that filler seems way bigger than the next big episode, Dragon Ball Sparking Zero, Sonic x Shadow Generations, Mario & Luigi Brothership, Mario Party Jamboree, The Legend of Zelda Echoes of Winsdom, Penny's Big Breakaway, Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection, Luigi's Mansion 2 HD, etc.
Fine, I guess I'll be the one person excited for the Danganronpa-like game... Anything that Kodaka makes has my attention at the very least, because he's a madman.
Expect me to say "finally" a few times. Yes! We finally have a new _Mario & Luigi_ after so freaking long! I wonder who's developing it. If I were to guess, I'd say... Intelligent Systems? Also, _Legend of Zelda Echoes of Wisdom,_ the first brand new 2-D Zelda game since... goodness... _A Link Between Worlds_ from 2013? It looks fun, and it's about time we actually got to play as Zelda in a mainline _Zelda_ game. I was kind of expecting the _Oracle_ games to be remade, but it's awesome that we have a new 2-D _Zelda_ game coming relatively soon! Maybe we'll get _Oracle_ remakes on the Switch successor. The 2D-HD remakes of _Dragon Quest I-III_ look very nice. I've really liked how the Square Enix 2D-HD games have looked, but I never found the time to pick them up. I really need to someday. _DKC Returns_ is finally coming to Switch, and that makes me happy. We'll finally have all of the _DKC_ games on Switch! Sadly, it looks like we won't be getting a brand new _Donkey Kong_ until the Switch successor arrives. I hope we'll get a new 3-D game for it! Again, finally. _Metroid Prime 4_ gameplay, and it looks gorgeous! I've really enjoyed playing the remaster of the first game, and it looks like I'll enjoy this one, too! I hope that _Echoes_ and _Corruption_ will be brought over so that we'll have all 4 _Metroid Prime_ games in one place. I'd assume they'll be brought over like _Pikmin 1 and 2_ were. Staight forward, "up-rezed" ports of the Wii versions in a double pack for $50. Overall, it's a pretty darn good final Nintendo Direct for the Switch.
I haven’t been a Nintendo guy in a few years but stoked for all the Metroid and Zelda fans 💪💪💪. Nintendo give me anything Kid Icarus and I will buy the next switch on DAY ONE
FINALLY I can start maining Jin again on MVC!!! *BLOODYIAAAA!!!* I always found him missing in 3 because dood is always over the top in his animations.
NEW MARIO AND LUIGI AND NEW MARIO PARTY AND MVC2 AND METROID PRIME 4? WE ARE GENUINELY SO BACK IT’S INSANE!!! Also I burst out laughing when I saw Freddy Fazbear in the FUNKO game, this franchise is cooked 😂
bro i left the stream during the MP4Beyond trailer i didnt expected Samus returning so raw what a Peak Direct we saw. Too many games i need more money omg😭
its absolutely wild that we can get games like BOTW and Prime 4 but also get Pokemon S&V on the same console and have them look generations apart graphically
While I'm not as excited for the Nintendo stuff the same way as everyone else, I am surprised that Fairy Tail is getting another game because the first one was only on PS4 and only went over the Tenrou Island, The Tournament, the Tartaros Dark Guild & Avatar Arcs. This new one goes over the War Arc, which is the final arc of the original series' run. The Fairy Tail Manga is still going with the 100 Years Quest. Fairy Tail was also heavily inspired by Echiro Oda & the late Akira Toriyama.
37:35 I DON'T APPRECIATE THAT CALL-OUT (even though I've been waiting for a good while for them to announce this game and I'm really looking forward to it) 😭
New Zelda game, Mario & Luigi AND Mario Party, Dragon Quest trilogy and of course, Metroid Prime 4! My Switch is gonna have to work overtime for all that! Fantastic direct!
