That mario party sh*t should have just been DLC for the existing game.

Disagree. At lest this way we get proper size boards, movement and item balance. This is because cost of stars back to twenty, max roll of six removed back to ten, removed unbalanced character items and allies. Even chance time and item minigames are back. I would also argue traditional minigames are better than limit to joycons.

Don't get me wrong Mario Party isn't like playing competitive sports to take seriously but still, it was out of line.

Was there a single new IP revealed?

I'll be honest. I've not owned a MP game before the current one so had no idea of those types of changes. I didn't realise the game was so different.

Why do you think its a rank ass story? I'd bet you haven't even played it.

Lol I thought I posted that before.

Yes they do.

Yeesh. It's AAA season again -- Artificial Amiibo Availability. EB sold out, Amazon sold out, Mightyape and Nintendo store are the last places to go.

That's a sexy Amiibo.

Do you reckon Amazon could get more stock?

new AAA IP? Nope. Probably don't need a new one for a few years.

Nintendo has reinvented the wheel enough times.

Once the rush has finished, I think they will.

$80 huh... I'm pretty stupid with money but I will likely pass on this one.

 

[magic_johnson!]

Excited for Mario party and advance wars for nostalgia - hoping Mario party will continue to be supported beyond the n64 (otherwise a ‘best of’ focusing on one console seems odd) but we know the history of support for Mario party…

dlc hints at Mario golf were great. Already very excited, but the future non-standard corses such as new donk city is Excellent.

I would like Nintendo to re release game and watches they would make a killing. if they did I would be buying them all because the originals go for over $300 on eBay

We're getting the first game in the new Metroid Dread series

Do powerful female figures scare you?

Come on. It jumped the shark when Ellie built that mech suit and saved Joel from the Fireflies' air fortress. As if she'd know how to refine the plutonium

Er RE the Direct I thought it was disappointing at first. Always hoping for a little more. But will get Metroid, Advance Wars and Wario. Looking forward to Golf too. So not that bad really just not very exciting.

 

[Mister Carlton]

Boo.

Uh, I know

E3 was missing a few things to make it really solid. New IP, a few big 3rd Party games. No Starfox/F-Zero. No Animal Crossing update or Bayonetta.
But it was pretty good. Really like that BOTW2 will be in the sky above the clouds as well as the original map and potentially dungeons below the earth.

• Metroid Dread: Yes! Nice!
• Kazuya Mishima Joins the Battle!: Makes sense i guess!
• WarioWare: Get It Together!: The original was a fun party game!
• Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope: Has Potential but Xcom is not my thing. Happy for the fans.
• Shin Megami Tensei V: Looks pretty cool. Very niche, but looks like a big game.
• Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp: A lot of hype for this, never played before.
• Game & Watch: The Legend of Zelda: Very slick, but expensive!
• Mario Party Superstars: Great but why not have it as DLC for the switch game.
• MONSTER HUNTER STORIES 2: Wings of Ruin: Actually looks pretty good. Very Final Fantasy and kinda open world.
• Life is Strange Remastered Collection: Looks very cool, never heard of this before.
• Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania: You can't go wrong TBF.
• Danganronpa S: Ultimate Summer Camp: Never heard of this. Looks ok, but i'll pass.
• Danganronpa Decadence: Ok, sure.
• Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity Expansion Pass: This is understated as it's a really big and well crafted game.
• Mario Golf: Super Rush: With Motion Controls this game looks awesome.
• The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD: Not all that interested but core fans should be happy.
• Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2: Yes!!! Hype!
• Just Dance 2022: A yearly game, no doubt.
• Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy: Cloud Version: Very cool, The cloud version, but all the same.
• Two Point Campus: Ok.
• Worms Rumble: A well known game is back.
• FATAL FRAME: Maiden of Black Water: Looks like jump scare and spooky.
• Cruis’n Blast:
• DOOM Eternal DLC: Understated I think.
• DRAGON BALL Z: KAKAROT + A NEW POWER AWAKENS SET: This looks open world?? Nice.
• Strange Brigade: Sure.
• Astria Ascending: well, why not!
• Zelda Breath of the Wild 2: Oh Yeah!!

Actually glad there's not that many big titles announced. I still have Mario Rabbids, Dragon Quest 11, Monster Hunter Rise, Mario 3D All Stars, Paper Mario to play and finish.

And I am getting Metroid, WarioWare, MonkeyBall, Pokemon remakes(if it turns out good) and Legends Arceus from now until January.

Of course, I am not going to buy every one of these straight on release for $70-80. Just showing how many games I have left to play going into 2022.

 

[Quivorir]

They'll be the same price no matter when you buy them anyway.

I know, just not going to spend hundreds of dollars in two weeks.

 

[ep2018]

The last few Super Smash Bros guests have been complete fizzers imo.

Yet another Nintendo E3 that disappoints. At least for once I didn't stay up to watch like the last several years.

 

[Mister Carlton]

I thought it was a pretty strong showing. Kinda wish they left a Splatoon 3 or announced the Rabbids game here.

Btw. The store has some really decent games discounted at the moment.
