I think they're both good honestly.

Mario Maker 2!!!!!
Already happy enough.

Rad I’m fully on board
Ooh forgot about this.
Except they aren't turn based strategy anymore. More like one man vs armies boring action based rpg. Fire emblem has really allowed itself to become just another "warrior" series.
It looks amazing tbh.
Final Fantasy 9 today, 7 at end of March. Absolutely will pay for these for the umpteenth time.

This is the best thing ever

Need to play this. Loved it as a kid on the gbc(?).
I've lost count of the times I've paid for the FF series... Feck me.
Yeah I’ve rinsed it so many times and I’m ready for another go, genuinely think it’s my favourite Zelda game.
Was thinking about this literally last night... definitely buying for the 25th time.
Disappointed at no Metroid Prime Trilogy announcement.
When did they show Link's Awakening? I missed it. I just saw the trailer on Youtube and it looks good. I never played the original so I'm looking forward to trying it! I really like the artstyle.
Edit: For anyone else that missed it

Oh I turned off after the Platinum logo came up, I assumed that was it.
Done that the last time I watched one, missed the super smash teaserI've never played Link's awakening before but why are Mario characters in a Zelda game?
Wish the first 30 seconds was the actual artstyle. Looks a little too cutesy for me.
Astral Chain will be insane, do you guys think AC will be delayed and they replaced it with 2D Zelda?

I don't think it'll be delayed. This Direct seemed to cover mostly games up to July and the end of 'Summer' without specifically stating August much. I think Animal Crossing was always an Autumn/Fall release. They normally have one or two games as a surprise that would come out a bit later, in this case they've gone with Zelda as it wasn't officially announced yet. I think they like to end Directs on new announcements. While Animal Crossing would have got a big applause, we already knew officially it was coming this year.
This makes me think the end of year is going to jam packed though! Between September and December, we will see Animal Crossing, Luigi's Mansion 3, Link's Awakening, and Pokémon.
If we are to believe StarFox Racing exists, along with Metroid Prime Trilogy, and some other surprises and WiiU Ports... It's a lot to fit into four months (especially when they typically only use the first week of December for a release).
I still think only Bayonetta 3 is a 2020 game.
I can see Animal Crossing and Pokémon getting their own dedicated Directs.
so, any new games or just rehashed classics?

I don't know if you'd consider mario maker a new game, but there's Astral Chain by Platinum, with contibutions from people who worked on Bayonetta and Neir Automata it looks really good.
So the director is the one on the right and it's his first time directing a game but he was a designer on Neir Automata.
I just know this game will be a big hit.
Since King Zell was correct about the Direct date, MM2, and 2D Zelda, I'm going to assume he is also right about Pikmin 3 coming in 2019, he did say he isn't sure which games will appear in the direct so yeah sounds credible so far, my wallet is empty and I won't get anything done this year with all those titles coming.
Anyone played the Yoshi and DxM demos yet?
Cat MarioMario Maker 2!!!!!
Already happy enough.
I haven't played Mario 3D Land but according to some youtubers those designs are from it?Cat Mario
I love 3D World and it looks to be the case. Cat Mario was the best thing about it in my opinion.
I hope they find a way to filter out the bad levels though, and watching youtubers do all kind of tricks with it is kind of intimidating.
Played the Yoshi demo, loved it.
Look at this level for example, so creative yet for me it'd be impossible to beat.
Not really a reason I don’t think, it just has them. It’s not set in hyrule like the other Zelda games though. But yeah play it, it’s a great game.
You could filter by difficulty on the first one. I cannot wait for Mario Maker 2. The first one was GoTY.
Tetris 99 is a free game . Battling against 99 players should be mental!

How good does this look?! https://clips.twitch.tv/ApatheticAuspiciousLorisTooSpicyI know I'll get a Switch eventually, and this is just one more thing to look forward to.
Link's Awakening always ran OoT very close to being my favourite Zelda game, and was the first one I did a challenge on (No save for the entire game, still have the cartridge). I'm hyped
I just hope they don't make it stupidly easy like they did ALBW.

The difficulty is my worry too, there were some tricky moments in the original and I’m hoping they don’t dumb the puzzles down as modern games have a habit of doing. I swear loads of people see a game being difficult as a mark against it these days.Link's Awakening always ran OoT very close to being my favourite Zelda game, and was the first one I did a challenge on (No save for the entire game, still have the cartridge).

Dang! Didn't realise they'd announced a Dragon Quest Builders 2 release date in the Direct....
July 12th feels so far away...

Yip I can't wait for MM2. I think it's the best example of user generated content. The quality and creativity of some of the levels with the limited tools is really impressive. I was incredibly sceptical when it first released as i feel like these things never catch on, but I watched a blind team race at GDQ and it absolutely sold me.
I don't know if you have ever seen any of the Mario World ROM hacks that are going around, where they basically create a brand new game. Been watching people play the latest one - Grand Poo World 2. The amount of time put in to putting them together is mind boggling, would be incredible if they allowed people to create worlds, instead of individual levels.
