Lol, first Direct of the year and it's entirely dedicated to a game I don't care about. Good for those who do though, this title, like many others on Switch, is going to sell a lot.

Skipping it. As Animal Crossing fan that will buy the game day 1 I really don't want to hear more about the game.
Hopefully a general Direct will happen soon

Finally! 25 minutes that have to last me a month.

I can't wait to find out how many other ways I can get in Tom Nook's debt!

Perfect, recently one month before release.

Animal Crossing directs must be like no other. We're going to spend 48 hours getting hyped, find out the big news is we can craft a hammock or catch a new breed of fish and we'll celebrate wildly until launch.

This is like eating vegetables before getting to the actual good stuff (general Direct)

veggies are good, but you know what I mean

This will be my first AC. I'm really excited about it, but I cannot lie; this was not the kind of Direct I wanted.

I hope they announce a way to play the same town on two Switches. I ordered the Animal Crossing Switch but the new pink lite is very tempting.

I've sworn never to buy an AC game again (too much of a timesink for me) but I'm still going to watch as an act of masochism.

Worth mentioning, that yesterday someone on reddit mentioned that an animal crossing direct would be announced today and that there would be another one in March with info on like metroid prime 4. Can't remember the proper details they gave cause they've now deleted it? I mean it's possible it was removed cause it was fake, but my god that would make this a dam good guess. So ya, assuming that the post is legit (and it's highly likely it was), regular direct in March with metroid prime 4 news!

edit - oh and pikmin 4 apparently!

Nice, but not nice.

This is a game that is a day one buy already... a proper direct with it would be way better.

The 20th was pretty much a given. It's a exactly a month before release of a game we know nothing about and there's an embargo in place on some merchandise featuring new NPC's that expires sometime on the 20th. We all guessed it was coming, so I wouldn't put too much stock in that rumour tbh.

Ah I'm so excited to learn more about this. So far been getting myself excited just to be able to play it on my switch but new features will boost the hype SO MUCH!

Fucking finally.
I swear, I was so tired of rewatching over and over again the same two trailers lol.
New footages are welcomed.
I'm already sold on the game of course, so my biggest expectation from the Direct is about the DLCs. Really excited to see what form it'll take. Please some Sims expansions-like. Keep adding new "horizons", new items, new gameplay interactions, etc etc.

Well, I'll be darned. I was expecting a general direct with a focus on Animal Crossing. Feels good to be eating crow and that I'll get to watch this during lunch on Thursday though.

I don't really understand blackouts for Animal Crossing. There's nothing to spoil: only game features that will help a person decide if it's worth a purchase.
Well, this time you're supposed to be on a desert island with having to build everything from scratch, I can understand people wanting to be surprised by how it's going to happen.

I'm looking forward to Animal Crossing moreso than BotW2 so I'm very cool with a standalone direct
