Nintendo Direct 9.4.2019

I don't think they will show us anything new on NH. It aires on 00AM for me and I have to be at work aroud 730AM so i'm not going to stay awake for it. I'll watch it in the morning.
 
Hey don't forget that 2019 is the 30th aniversary of the Mother series and the 25th aniversary of Earthbound, and this is also the year of the pig. Basically, Nintendo is still not going to care about the Mother trilogy.

No crying until the end
 
I've wanted Mario Kart to go the "Smash" route for as long as I can remember, MK8 being the closest I feel we'll get though.

I just don't see why they continue scraping the bottom of the barrel with like 5 different variations of Mario and Peach to further pad a roster when they could just continue to throw in characters like Isabelle, Inklings and Link.

Buzz Buzz for Mario Kart 8 2019!
 
The character customization in Pok?mon is the most exciting news so far. I like learning more about Animal Crossing, but we have to wait a little bit later to see more about it.
 
Banjo-Kazooie comes out today??? Also MORE Smash DLC fighters yayyy
 
I was able to catch a snippet of the ACNH part of the direct. the graphics of the game looks good

I liked what I saw for NH! Even though I'll be waiting until later to buy it, it made me a bit more excited.

While I have yet to play a Xenoblade game, I'm pretty excited for the first Xenoblade Chronicles! The Wii game looked fun but I never got a chance to play it, and I've been wanting to play the second one that's on Switch.

After watching the direct on Youtube, I definitely am the most excited about the New Horizons and Xenoblade news! :D I am very curious to see what they added to the definitive edition of Xenoblade after playing the original release in its entirety. When it comes to the New Horizons updates... where to start? xD Through the footage in the direct, a lot of things caught my attention especially the fact that you can now move entire trees around (no more waiting to grow new trees)! o_O
 
I couldn't be bothered watching it since I've had a tooth removed and wanted to sleep it off. BUT looking at the TL:DR roundup of what was announced:


- Banjo released today? I'm nipping home on my dinner to buy the fighter pass and download that. THE character I've always wanted finally here!

- SNES titles. Finally, the online sub is somewhat worthwhile now. Hopefully this is pathing the way for N64 and maybe Gamecube titles too. I've seen Super Metroid and Yoshi's Island are both in the 20 game launch, and they're both good enough for me. Hopefully some Super Mario World will be in there too.

- Xenoblade Chronicles. Yea, I'm down. I was hoping for Xenoblade Chronicles X so I can pack up my Wii U (pretty much the only Wii U game I have left to be ported to Switch), but hopefully that will come in time.
Arguably though, the original needed a 'definitive edition' more. The Wii and 3DS versions didn't get enough support, both having pretty small amounts of copies shipped and the 3DS version being exclusive to the N3DS. Add to that, it's just a very pretty game and neither of those platforms really helped showcase that, the Wii with it's 'even for the time' low resolution and the 3DS's tiny screen, which also didn't help portray the sheer scope of the game.
It's nice they've updated things like character models too. I'm excited for this remaster/remake more than others that have come out since Xenoblade is an excellent game and really deserves all the attention it gets.

- Luigi's Mansion 3. I dunno what they've announced with this, but I'll be buying this anyway so whatever.

- Trials of Mana. Never played it so might give this one a go. Looks neat.

- Town (or whatever its called now) I'm unsure of. I might give it a go since it's a new RPG from Game Freak that's really being pushed, so Nintendo must have some faith in it...However, it's a game by Game Freak and they tend to be pretty lackluster outside of Pokemon...Which have declined in quality themselves.

- Tokyo Mirage. Never got this on Wii U since I never really knew what the hell it was with its terrible marketing. I'll give it a go though.

- Divinity Original Sin 2. I'll likely buy this. I love the Divinity series and it would be nice to have a portable version of this. It might also help me to finally get my friend to play Divinity.

- Daemon X Machina. I don't really know anything about it but it keeps getting mentioned. I'll probably try the demo.

- Overwatch. Ehhhhhh, I've not played it in so long, I'm not sure if a Switch version is going to renew my interest. I'll keep an eye out for it getting closer to release and see how I feel.
 
Finally SNES games, I was so bored by those NES games. Luigi's Mansion 3 looks so good, that dance
floor part sounds funny. ACNH news were also really good. And yay, they made a Switch version of that
one Kirby game from the 3DS I liked so much. Overall a good Direct.
