Yoshi's Crafted World releases March 29th (read Staff Post)
- Thread starter ggx2ac
- Start date
Nope. Skeleton crew. Tax returns may be delayed because they don't have the budget to operate at full staff.
Pretty sure they're just getting announcements of things that have been shown plenty or would be buried out of the way. If anything, this should get people more excited, it potentially means they have a lot to show and can't be bothered to spend time on a date for Yoshi/Kirby

It's a bummer and I hope you're able to get your refund sooner rather than later.
We'd finally have enough dog characters to fill a 4-player match!
I dislike the expectations to dissapointment cycle so I wish people would just let things happen when they're ready
Same with Dragon's Dogma...
Surely there must be one, for Fire Emblem at the least?
Are there any February Switch releases that I'm forgetting at the moment? Anything between New Mario U/Travis this coming week and Yoshi at the end of March?
I mean obviously this doesn't deconfirm a direct. But it is strange that one of Nintendo's bigger H1 games would just get dumped out from the very close direct. What could the reasoning behind it mean though?
Revealed stuff today:
Dragon's Dogma - Okay not every 3rd party is gonna pile onto a direct for one reason or another, and it's Capcom. This stuff is usual for them with the RE & Megaman game announcements
Yoshi release date and Trailer - ...I dont know? Don't want it overshadowed even though it's one of the bigger H1 games from Nintendo? A little weird considering the circumstances *Shrug*
Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn release date + amiibo functionality - Uh now this is getting pretty weird. This is exactly the filler-esk news that they would have had in a direct. They've talked even less worthwhile info with other games like Kirby, Rocket League
Just seems very.... weird. What could it mean..
Hopefully this means a BIG BLOWOUT DIRECT so grand that these things weren't even worth putting in!! Lol jk it's still gonna have 2-4 time wasters in it
Son of a bitch!!! As if 12 games in the first 5 months of 2019 wasn't enough, what the hell, let's add another one. :(
This is a weird thread.
It's great that Yoshi has a release date and it's far earlier than I thought it would be. In terms of new exclusives it means the Switch's lineup for Q1/2019 is better than Q1/2018 already. The game looks great and I'm sure it will sell really, really well (for some odd reason I can see selling >5m)
With that said, that trailer is pretty awful and boring. Not a great way to hype me up.
And this thread has now become about a Nintendo Direct? Jump to conclusions much? Someone even said 'it's not a good look'! To who? Forum dwellers? Nintendo never promised a January Direct, they could have a Direct any time. Chill out people.
EDIT - for all we know they could have a Direct that focuses on Fire Emblem and Animal Crossing. Like how they did the Arms/Splatoon2 one in 2017.

We've had longer with the switch before. Tho this time, we don't really know for sure if they have something for February. There could be a port or whatnot coming.
Yeah wtf Nintendo. What happened to their 2D platformers with complex immersive narratives and cinematic cutscenes?
I mean... unless I missed something the trailer for yoshi is just a story trailer. You gotta imagine they'll wanna show the actual game again in the direct.
Kirby is a 3ds game. They won't waste time there.
Dragons dogma is a budget priced multi platform years old port.
You gotta imagine that based on what Emily and Matt and Nate or any other "insider" that you choose to trust said, there are a lot of other games coming in 2019, many that would be good to debut in a direct.
Just sayin'.
Hell yeah, that's not too far away! This is one of my most anticipated Switch games considering Woolly World was one of my favorite games on the Wii U. The charm in just this trailer is amazing.
I'm sorry you didn't get your deep cinematic 2D platformer where baby mario dies.

I guess it comes with the territory of being a Nintendo fan.
I will admit though, considering what I've heard, sometimes it's annoying to be with other Nintendo fans
Well, I mean, if they're going to make their trailers consist solely of cut scenes, it becomes a very fair criticism of said trailers.
I'm honestly not sure what they were thinking with what they chose to highlight here.
Looking good. The farty flutes at the beginning worry me regarding the music, though. Wooly World has an amazing soundtrack. Hope this one delivers on that front as well.
Can't believe I have to post this in a thread about a Yoshi game but it's gonna be ok everyone:
https://www.al.com/news/2019/01/irs...s-jan-28-refunds-issued-despite-shutdown.html (Tax refunds won't be delayed)
(Except for the Direct that isn't happening ever anymore ever again)

All these announcements could mean one of a few things:
- There is no January direct and there was never going to be one.
- A January direct was planned but was canceled or postponed for some unknown reason.
- They're getting these smaller announcements out of the way ahead of time because the direct is absolutely packed. (plz hype responsibly)
Subsequent worlds got better, but if it wasn't your thing then fair enough
Oh I agree. But Nintendo has tended not to agree with me on certain choices to their direct presentations, such as things they should have put in and tiny insignificant time wasters they should have left out. Like the Rocket League thing I mentioned before which repeated old information with nothing new to say about it and a generic release time frame only 2 months out from its actual release. Or actually showing trailers for their games instead of talking over footage all freaking day lol.
Also they tend to showcase games with horrrrrendous performance and presentation without a second thought such as Crystal Chronicles HD in the Sep 2018 direct. So I always have my suspicions even though things seem so obvious in how they could have a great direct
My issue was that every level felt way too long for whatever premise it was focused on to seem interesting. Did that get better over time?
Of course things'll be different in this new game but if they can solve that issue with it I might pick it up. Who knows tbh.
Guy who commits tax fraud barely making a deadline? Seems to be in character.
Eh, levels going on too long is a fair criticism even though I enjoyed the game for what it was. Level length stays the same from what I can remember.
