To say that I'm happy with today's Direct would be putting it lightly! THIS was quite an exciting Direct! Even for what I'm not really hyping for I got excited!
So...
- We've got gameplay AND date for Pikmin 4! I've been meaning to get into Pikmin since Pikmin 3 Deluxe's launch, but I never seemed to accomplish my own promise... but seriously, who are you? (I'm talking to Pikmin 4's protagonist). Though I shouldn't jump like that with a game that people have been waiting for years, right?
- And for Tears of the Kingdom: Though the map is looking the same. But rovers? Drones? In a ZELDA game? What are they taking from our world? LOL...
- Advance Wars is finally coming...: Not really a game I am hyped for, but I hope the delay is for the best for everyone who has been wishing for it since last year.
- Metroid Prime Remastered! It's not Metroid Prime 4, but I'll take it.
- Game Boy AND Game Boy Advanced in NSO? Switch Online took this long to get better, didn't it...? At least 80 dollars per year is getting increasingly more worth, so that's good, I guess. I only hope they don't come as broken as Nintendo 64 Online titles did!
But oh... the announcements that really got me...
- SAMBA DE AMIGO IS BACK, BABY!! I've been waiting for him to make a scene for years. Since the Switch got its motion controls known, I couldn't help but hope for a Samba de Amigo remake. And oh ghost, it IS a remake! With outfits, online play, and all! I want to know its release date already so I can pre-order it!
- We're returning to ORIGINAL Inkopolis! I have been a Splatoon player since technically the launch of the first game. I can't really call myself a veteran, though. But... going back to where everything started, it really sparks nostalgia within me. Not that I don't like Splatsville! Inkopolis, however, may not be what I was expecting, yet it feels adequate. Regarding the Side Order... Marina...? Do you now see what would have happened if Team Order won the Final Fest?
- Professor Layton, Hershel Layton himself... HE WILL RETURN!! He is as handsome as the day we lost him...
