Announcements In order announced:

I liked the Direct, even though new announcement for first party were pretty much all remakes, but since Switch is my first Nintendo console, I loved all those announcements.

What do you all think about it?

I'm torn (lol) on the paper mario reveal.

On one hand, FUCK YEAH TTYD is one of if not THE greatest Mario RPG of all time. I'm 100% buying this because it's a fantastic game and I want more games like it to come.

On the other hand, it's been over a decade sense the original game was released, and one thing I've always fantasized about when this game eventually would be remade, was the concept of a Luigi's Compass side mode to add extra content to the game. It looks like that idea has been thrown out in favor of an HD improvement to graphics.

Which while I imagine took ages with dozens of people working really hard to perfect... But to be honest, I prefer the old graphics. It's a bit like making a live-action remake of a classic animated film.
