No joke, now I really want some damn Koopa Troopa PJs. My wife can get Paratroopa PJs so we match.
Sales do not reflect this assertion. Maybe it was underwhelming for most enthusiasts (like us), sure, but the mass market loved it and Smash is already heavily driving hardware sales.
Miyamoto and Tezuka both hinted since Super Mario Maker at a new artstyle for next 2D Mario, by saying that Nintendo EPD art team was working on new styles for Mario.
If I had to guess, this next 2D Mario is still in the work, and it won't be a "New Super Mario Bros", so let's just port New Super Mario Bros U : easy money, will sell like crazy, minimal ressources because it's a port, and Switch will have a New Super Mario Bros for those who like that style.
I would say that more points to the fact that the E3 direct was a disappointment for many.
I think this Indie Direct will match the EU presentation in terms of software quality. We need a date for Firewatch and some other summer indie releases still.
And for those begging for "big boy" games, did you ignore everything that was announced this week for Switch at Gamescom? Does it matter if the announcements come from a Direct, a press release or at an event?

NO! I'm a big boy and I demand my videogames now!
On topic, pretty curious to see what games they have on this direct. The indie highlight was great so I'm pretty stoked for this one; one personal wish is to have some of Team Ladybug's games on Switch, Pharaoh Rebirth would be awesome.
Am I missing something? What big games were announced for Switch during Gamescom?
you mean you and 3 other nobodies? sorry, no one cares for you guys.
So much this. I have 60 ish games on my Switch now and just as many on my wishlist. I'm never going to catch up.
A lot of people thought the E3 Direct was underwhelming, at least on Era. Even with that if you were happy with it good for you. There's no need to be a dick tho.
Lol I'm still playing Octopath Traveler. And the games keep coming.
No, they specifically said they'd have more to show very soon at the end of that highlight. Presumably that's what this is.
I'm with you. And bring anything else vaguely sim or tycoon or tactical or strategic. I want it all.
No. The last indies presentation focused exclusively on EU-based indie. This will highlight other indie developers and releases. There may be some overlap, but there will be new stuff.
Grandia 1/2HD Remaster, for example. This month alone has seen Diablo 3 and Doom Eternal announced for Switch.
for real, I'm holding my purchase just because I can feel a switch port announcement right around the corner
Maybe Guacamalee! is finally coming to Switch (and of course eventually Guacamelee! 2). I know DrinkBox Studios has shown interest in putting games out for the Switch.
Okay, but we're on Era.
And the discussion the person you were quoted in was talking about Era and Era Nintendo fans:
If your discussion for opinions on Era always involve "sorry Era no one cares about you guys move on" than I'm not sure why your here tbh.
I think there could be overlap if some of the games announced in the European showcase were also at PAX (possibly Everspace), but it's likely little overlap.
Last year, the regular Direct (where DOOM and stuff was announced) was 2 weeks after the indie summer showcase. Perhaps they will follow the same pattern this year. At any rate, I think it's safe to assume there will be a regular Direct later on.
GIVE ME TOWERFALL WITH NEW CONTENT
I do a lot, it is the name of one of the best game stores near me xD

That's kind of how I feel.
That and "oh, more games that are probably already announced and/or coming to another platform sooner, if not already release? Cool, I guess."
Travis Strikes Again and Wargroove are what I care about. I want release dates.
Any other game mind as well be slated for late 2019 because my schedule is packed already.
I think MS paid for the development, so expect Cuphead to be and stay a Xbox/PC exclusive game.
the flood hasn't even started yet, just wait and see what happens next year when we start to reach the point where it's been a proper dev cycle's worth of time since launch.
And they will announce devil may cry 4 and a new smash bros character at the end right ?
Yeah right
Directs only exist when I see then being announced =P
It will have different games, for starters. As indicated in the tweet.
