Couldn't agree more. If this is what led to Fire Emblem's new popularity, let it burn. It's cringe beyond belief.

Nintendo Direct Speculation |OT|

This is the most ResetEra thing I've ever heard in my life.
It's okay to be wrong, my dude.
It's time for a Kingdom Hearts Collection to come to Switch. This might be my biggest third party port I want to see in a direct.
I wasn't wrong about Gen 8 nor a proper gen 7 game not being released last year, the problem was the leakers made us think lets go was a main gen game, so the logic make it impossible to be true. The lesson I learned then: Even if the leakers were right, they were also wrong.
I was also right about pokemon stars being fake and no Prime 4 on Game Awards (and I even especulated about it having development problems).
Oh and I was right about Smash and lets go not being enough to sell 20M switches.
With Persona.
It is going to be a great year for JRPG fans, I am sure of it :
my sources tell me nintendo will announce something new in the direct, whenever it is. they're heavily hinting at it being within the next three to four months.
One funny thing about the Fire Emblem trailer is that they were pointing the camera straight up in the walking around parts.
That's a way to improve the framerate by reducing detail shown, lol.

I want another Fire Emblem Direct.
Something like opening with the final trailer for Three Houses and giving the release date, a short update on how Fire Emblem Heroes is doing, an announcement that Fire Emblem Warriors 2 is coming with Ike's intro shown, and finally announcing that in 2020 we'll see Fire Emblem Echoes: Genealogy of the Holy War, but it's too early to show more than this animated trailer.
Because if you dream big, might as well go all out for it.

To be fair, it was really early footage, and Fire Emblem won't need but 30fps.
Nothing of this will be true.
I read that post, then noticed who the user was and thought something similar. Regardless, this still made me nearly spit out my coffee.
That's a nice castle.
It'll look great after the polishing phase but I am really curious about those on-foot sections. They are really expanding the scale of the game with this entry.
LOL let's go is an main series gen 7 game without a doubt. Even the developers themselves confirmed it
I would love for FE to get a late April release date. It would be great to have it set a precedent for much shorter times between announcement and release. I mean yes I know it was officially announced and revealed quite awhile a go but in terms of real info and dates that would still be a very short turn around.
I'm really hoping this to be the case with AC as well which I'd love to see come out right before E3 so we have a good bit of time to play during Summer and not just start out in Fall/Winter.

I've never played Fire Emblem. I've sorta been intrigued. I know they don't have a world map you walk around and that turns me off.

This game though showed a character running around. Do you think we could end up having a bigger areas and stuff to run around?
That's not what you said though. You said that Smash is not a system seller as "most of the smash fanbase already has a switch" and that the Switch will sell "[t]he same as last year."
he was amazing, there'll never be another like him. not only for nintendo, but his contributions to gaming in general are beyond massive.This thread is a place where I can safely say that GOD DAMN I miss this dude.
We need some John Harker tease up in here like for the January direct last year
:(This thread is a place where I can safely say that GOD DAMN I miss this dude.
I think a Dragon Quest collection is coming first to promote DQ11.
Did i say it would be bad selling ?
Or that not enough fans would buy it ?
Cause i sure dont see that in my post.
I said its far from the "most anticipated" games on switch.
Both Pokemon and Animal Crossing sell more on a per entry basis than the entire Metroid Franchise, so of course there are way more people anticipating Animal Crossing Switch, or Gen 8 of Pokemon.
And with the huge active playerbase of FE Heroes, and plenty of Smash representation of FE characters, Fire Emblem is way more active and known in the public conciousness that Metroid, no matter how excited people on internet forums are about a Logo(that got canned and rebooted).
I am betting on a hub where you can upgrade your weapons, give Bonus EXP to your army and improve the skills of some of your characters.
Then you go in your missions with some story element between the two phases.
You are in for a treat Dark Cloud, I am sure you are going to like it (given that the game is good of course).
That's a nice castle.

Glad I'm not the only one who thinks the exploration sections looked stunning. The angular battle UI was stylish, too.
It's just the maps that were a bit sad looking, clearly unfinished.
Which games? All previous games from IV onwards were already on DS and 3DS.
Wow you think they'll do like DQ all the way to IX? That would be an insane package.
The issue with the Switch in 2018 was the first half of the year (probably even the first 2/3 of the year) was really light in terms of first party games and any major 3rd party as well. The lack of a direct so far as made me worry a little bit that things are going to be heavily weighted toward the later portion of the calendar year and we're going to have a dry first half again. If they were going to come out with some big releases in the next couple months they would have to start advertising them soon right?
Who in the world that even paid the slightest bit of attention around Let's Go thought it was ever going to be a mainline game? Like they were pretty up front from the beginning with that it was definitely not a mainline game.

eh i doubt it. DQ11 doesn't really need any promotion in form of a collection, and plus unlike KH where the collections are ready, it's not like porting a bunch of the older games to switch would be an easy or cheap task.
Awakening had a world map. I didn't play Fates or Shadows of Valencia, so I can't speak for those.
Yes. I would say the odds of having proper dungeons and even outdoor environments that are fully explorable in 3rd person is pretty high. We'll likely still have a literal overworld map that we travel across, but within it there could be spots that are open areas to explore. They tested this out in the last FE game with a number of dungeons throughout the world map and I expect we'll see more of that here. But the majority of the game will still be traditional FE.
Yes, that was the precedent set in Echoes, and something they wanted to include (but couldn't finish in time) for Fates.
Echoes had 3D explorable dungeons and point-and-click towns, but clearly Three Houses is making at least one large explorable non-combat area. I'd bet on it including dungeons as well.
They did a spectacular work on the presention of Shadow of Valentia. 8-4 did a wonderful localization work and I am sure they are working on Three Houses they are not.
