Nintendo Direct June 2024 

No star fox. No F-zero. I sleep :gurasleep:

Metroid Prime looks good, very faithful to the rest of the series.

The Zelda game is meh. Not the kind of game I want to play. Seems like even the 2D Zelda team is leaning into gimmick mechanics that let you break everything now. There probably won't be dedicated dungeon items again. It'll be a good game for people who are interested but the gameplay isn't up my alley. I wish Zelda actually fought directly with magic, would have been a lot cooler.

Fans have been wanting a solo Zelda game for years, but not like this :NotLikeThis:

Everything else in the trailer I couldn't give two shits about. Donkey Kong is really good if you haven't played it yet but honestly just get a secondhand Wii copy and emulate the damn thing. You'll miss out on 3DS levels but that's whatever.

@beardalaxy Zelda game looks fun, but falls under the "kirby-fication" trend where the main gimmick is some sort of copy ability.

Mario & Luigi looks fun, but looks kind of tame compared to inside story or partners in time. Im assuming the gimmick is something like Rocket Slime 3, where you travel on a ship to different islands, which could be interesting. I'm glad Prime 4 isn't a psyops, but I'm really bad at FPS games. Wish they did more with the DKCR port, like being to use Cranky or Dixie Kong, it would break the levels but maybe as postgame option or something.
