Shitty mishandling of the media create thread by the staff alienated sales era.
For some reason the media create community and the Nintendo community here are pretty tightly linked.

I'd say this to me looks fairly spot on. With the exception of missing MxR. Here are my general guesses:
January: Pokemon Legends
March: Triangle Strategy & Rise Expansion pass
April: casual title
May: Kirby
June: MxR
July: Splatoon 3
August: Fire Emblem
September: Bayonetta 3
October: Metroid Prime remake & casual title
November: BotW 2
December: New 2D Mario to coincide with movie release
If that and Aidyn Chronicles don't make it then what was even the point?
I thought it was a very solid Direct, very middle-of-the-road. It accomplished what Nintendo needed it to do for now, which is fill things out and announce things in preparation for early next year. And had some cool stuff in it at the same time.
I guess one reason it wasn't SUPER great for me personally is that it was pretty lacking in brand new stuff/stuff we didn't know about. Basically just Kirby, which was really great! But it really needed that Fire Emblem/Xenoblade 3/etc. for it to be top-tier for me. Plus as someone who's not really into Splatoon or Bayonetta the latter parts of the direct weren't all the interesting. But that's just me, and that's okay! I will most likely like the winter/spring Direct a lot more.

Whoa. I saw that happening initially, the MC thread, but I haven't checked in recently. It continued to be mishandled to the point where people left? Where did they go?
Discord or starting a new forum. Or both. You could probably ask for an invite to the discord for this thread if you want.
I could see Kirby releasing in late March. Nintendo usually always has some kind of larger franchise title to close out the fiscal year. Like Kirby Star Allies in 2018, Yoshi in 2019, Animal Crossing in 2020, and Monster Hunter in 2021, all in the latter half of March.
As a comparison, the trailer for Yoshi's Crafted World in the Sept 2018 Direct listed the launch window as Spring 2019 and it ended up releasing on March 29th, 2019. Unless that Resident Evil game is actually a thing, I think their internally aiming for Kirby in late March.
i criticize nintendo a lot, but this was a pretty good direct. 2 new good looking exclusives for next year with bayo and kirby, a funny moment with the mario cast reveal and finally, no first party ports/remasters/remakes that annoy me so much, actually quite a few straight up new games coming next year.
i wish they would work on more new ips though, lots of sequels.

I was just thinking, did the new Donkey Kong rumors ever get mentioned by someone with credibility? Like someone who has gotten things right at least decently consistently in the past. I'm legit asking because I can't seem to remember at the moment. Most of the time I see the DK rumors it's either from Zippo (ha!) or someone random Youtuber. But I don't recall if someone more trusted actually talked about a new DK game.
looking forward to Hyrule Warriors
despite the story being...kinda dumb heh, I enjoyed it and the presentation was way higher than I expected. It surprisingly had a lot more big cutscenes than Botw.
so that'll be fun to play in a month.
It'll drop to sub 10fps, but oh well

Yeah, even if it was light on things that specifically appeal to me, I came out of it thinking this was one of the better Directs in forever. The pacing was great and they avoided dragging on with any particular thing.
Very weird that all the games selected for the Genesis are already on the Switch except MUSHA, speaking of that why Nintendo hasn't added Space Megaforce on SNES Online?
I hope we can see Rockey Knight now that they already added 2 Konami games.

I mean, with the type of games we've been getting on the NES and SNES apps after Nintendo had exhusted their 1st party stuff... Holy Magic Century (or for you guys Quest 64) IMO is a no joke shoe-in! :D
besides AoC, the other 2 things for me were Kirby 3D, I'm not expecting too much, definitely not 3D Mario tier, but will definitely play.
The trailer started pretty regular, but as it went on it got a lot more involved.
and then Triangle Strategy is an easy 50 hours.
Really shocked it's March, thought it'd be July or August next year. So that's nice.
edit:
oh, I don't play it much, but Splatoon's trailer was edited really well.
Splatoon has some pretty good better trailers imo. The anime intro one, the DLC one, today, some others

i mean, you'd pretty much assume the "february" direct 2022 if it's actually a 2022 game.
I just ordered 10 Pokémon Oreos from Target. That was easier than I expected. Arriving next Friday.

Ok peeps.
As I've been away for a while (I had six month self requested ban) I can't really say that I've been massive part of this community for a while now. However I still remember with absolute joy the madness of the old. From Chibi robos to Reset the clock. From the madness that was launch day to this horrible week.
It's been absolute pleasure as a middle aged video gaming fan to read the shitposts, takes, hot takes, jokes, opinions and recommendations and everything else here. It's been more than a pleasure. It's been a goddamn privilege.
I don't know if I will ever join the discord as someone who writes or even reads. I did get the invitation and it sits on my app sure, but I never use discord except with my siblings because Nintendo doesn't have a voice chat. Seriously NO VOICE CHAT. (that was a joke).
I don't know if I will join the new forum if you guys put it up. I will lurk some time here for that maybe. Or maybe check the discord for it.
But for this place. It's gotta go from my life. Because the only thing I have left to say for Resetera leadership is F**k you. And that's not a thing I want to do or how I want to feel about any virtual or real community.
NintendoEra is the best. You people are the absolute worst in best way possible and the best in the best way possible. With this. I bid you all guys farewell or if Kirby Stars align, see ya.

I really liked the Direct. My wallet will be empty in 2022 I guess.
And I will star away for the announcement threads I think, is not worth the time to read some of the messages posted there...

It lacked a new game reveal as the last thing but in terms of pacing it was excellent (much better than the february one). Pretty much every announcements was worthwile, even during the headlines.
Also underrated part of the direct: two more directs to look forward to in the near future.

I was about to say three, but then I remembered that they never said the NSO thing would be a Direct.
This implies Nintendo will just charge even more per each pair of consoles. Not sure if that's the reality we want to will into existence!
Bayo 2 and 3 are funded by Nintendo. Nintendo would have to let them publish it on other platforms.
Better to just accept it now. It's better than the alternative where they keep the same price, but cycle out the consoles.
Yeah. I do wonder if, when they announce the pricing for N64 and Mega Drive, they go ahead and confirm GB is coming for an additional fee. But given they're updating the subscription soon, they could hang on to any further additions for a little while.
Im rather excited to get that new Kirby game. Its a series which historically has always had really good finale's/true final boss fights and with the series going 3D, I cant wait to see what craziness they pull in this game.
Everything else shown was solid, Bayo 3 looks fun combat wise even if graphically it didnt quite wow me (but really, its gonna be all about the gameplay anyway, so who cares), and Capcom has more MH Rise coming (which we all knew). I probably should get a move on with Rise...

Next 3D Platformer they want you to focus is Kirby. Maybe after that (or after DK if is real and 3D?)
Good Direct, not spectacular. But good.
Splatoon 3 did nothing for me, i feel like they had too much time on that without showing or talking not much new stuff.
AAAAAAACTRAISER! Announcement of the Direct for me.
I think Bayo 3 looks fine. Seeing "PS2 graphics" on the Bayo 3 tailer thread's first page is enough for me to not participate in that thread.

The team is working on DK supposedly, next 3D Mario is probably a couple years away
(I expect them to be working on it already but not main focus yet)
Really liked what I saw of Chocobo GP. Looks like a fun, cute little game.
Shadowrun Trilogy was also a very welcome announcement. If you haven't played these games yet, you really should!
My favorite announcement was that of Kirby and the Forgotten Land. Exactly the direction I wanted Kirby to move in. Will be my first new Kirby game in more than a decade (Kirby's Epic Yarn).

Kirby Planet Robobot is the peak of the Kirby franchise and Star allies was not that great, so I'll trust them to try new things and go crazy
Same here.
First Kirby game after the NES one that I'm actually interested in.
But I will only buy it when there's some challenge to it.
Bought that robot Kirby game on 3DS years ago and was so disappointed how super easy the game was.
I'm starting to think the next mainline 3D Mario will be a Switch 2 launch game (similar to what they did with BotW).
extremely long shot but I wonder if this is where that Scalebound revival rumour popped up or if it's completely unrelated.
