Report: Nintendo Direct Mini coming today with Dark Souls Remastered announcement
- Thread starter Atheerios
- Start date
He's right, you knowTo anyone blaming Nintendo for hyping this up too much for a mini Direct:
I honestly don't understand what you are saying. The article talks about Dark Souls Remastered (the first game, not the trilogy) for Switch, PS4, etc. It does not mention PS4 and others getting a remastered trilogy.
People are so used to Nintendo consoles having nothing but Nintendo games and a couple of small third party games that somehow "leaning pretty heavily on third party games" sounds like a bad thing now.
Tokyo Mirage Sessions deserves another life on Switch. As do Tropical Freeze and The Wonderful 101. Would buy all of them again.
E3 can be big no matter what. It doesn't have to be a game for this year. We still need Retro's game.
I doubt it, that would contradict what we know from basically all logic.
It's still only giving me the option of standard (3-5 day) shipping with delivery the week after. I'll give it a week or so and then contact support if I can't get release day.
OOOHHH!!!

Yes. The game is very much built to allow you to play with strangers.
Later games made it easier to play with friends. I imagine they'll add in a password system similar to BB or DS3.
Oh I'm not expecting them, just if they happen, if they fucking happen, I will lose my mind
No Octopath would be disappponting. Pretty much the only one I'm looking forward to. Maybe for next month's direct? It's supposed to release early 2018.
Yeah we definitely new launch dates for Splatoon 2, ARMS, BotW, Snipperclips, Mario Kart 8DX and all those Nindies before January 12th 2017...
The beauty of Nintendo Directs is the ability for Nintendo to drop one whenever they want. They aren't tied to E3 or other trade shows. We will probably be getting at least one or two more directs before June hits.
I for one am excited to see what I may have missed on other platforms get announced for Switch. Nintendo deserves 3rd party sales, because they have actually bust their behinds to get their platform right this time. They are still asinine in some of their decisions for sure, but they've shown they can't just stick their fingers in their ears and ignore what's going on around them. Except for online :(
Yes you can play online with friends but it's not at all like Monster Hunter or any other coop game online. It's a bit harder to interact with people you want. But you can in effect play the whole game coop if you wish.
I hope there's more love for Wii U exclusives in this season of ports, instead of old multiplatform releases that, beyond portability, are going to look and play worse than in any other system.
Any new game is welcome, but it riles me how DKC or Captain Toad are still trapped in that platform.

Noooooo! HE WAS DOING THE RAINMAKER POSE!!!
BELIEVE IN THE FIRE(PRO)!!!
Gimme those plus XCX and I'm golden. Maybe add Captain Toad.
It was bad? Mario Kart 8 Deluxe being released was bad! Oh my.
It's all money in the coffers to pay more artists to make more beautiful Nintendo things.
Plus, I'd love a Super Mario World 3D Deluxe. The joycons were made for such sweet two player out of the box action.
Makes perfect sense.
They can't have all years be like 2017, they need time to build up up those lineup.
Having 1 year of exceptional 1st party support followed by a quiter year of 3rd parties is a solid plan (although of course having a year with a bit of both would be better imho).
Nintendo is just gonna announce a direct either tomorrow or next week and that will be a day before it airs. Something like that. Best to just not get your hopes up with any of these rumors.
