Same yeah. But then the Direct always was kind of an Iwata thing and I honestly do miss him doing those since his passing. They always had such fun with them back then.

Neat.
I haven't been following Nintendo (or any game) announcements lately. This shows how much of a dinosaur I am now having taken myself out of the loop. The who Directs and Treehouse thing was cool when they first started (still cool). The Treehouse streams really make sense in this age of game streaming. I believe people just have to re-frame their minds as to how they are surprised. Waking up and seeing this random thumbnail for this new thing is the surprise. The disappointment should only be there for people who run a channel and want time to schedule a reaction.

I have it on PC. It didn’t come close to getting its hooks into me like Streets Of Rage did.

No idea if directs going away is a good thing or not. I guess it would get people to focus on one or two things instead of a deluge of information all at once. I've forgotten about smaller announcements in Directs before just because they were overshadowed by something far bigger.

I don't anticipate directs going away.
I think Nintendo was in a scenario where release plans got shuffled around and they wanted to be flexible to releases. Similarly third parties were making their own release decisions. I anticipate a return to more a regular announcement cycle in 2021. I don't think the Twitter reveals had nearly the same impact or reach as the direct format.

I'm anticipating a pretty packed calendar next year for Switch. Would be nice to get shorter ~15 minute directs every month or two that showcase a combination of first party, third party, and indie games.

Spawnwave reported that Capcom is resurrecting(FINALLY, YES!) the Ghosts N Goblins I.P. and it's apparently using their
newest RE Engine. I hope they keep it 2D side scrolling with healthy amounts of parallax scrolling and other tricks to really
pay tribute to the earlier games but giving us something fresh. Possible trailer during the Awards show tonight.

I don't know if it's considered a hot take ITT but I enjoy pretty much all of the GBA and DS igavanias (haven't played Harmony of Dissonance yet) more than Symphony of the Night.

As good and legendary as Symphony of the Night is, it IS kinda easy so it's nooot that much of a hot take imo. The newer ones definitely balanced things like that better.

Hey all! Wanted to say to everyone, have fun tonight, should be a fun time, I think! We'll see what happens. Can't wait to see the Smash reveal, whoever it is, and for whatever else comes. Rooting for ACNH for GOTY. Hopefully, if this is okay, my son and I will be doing a bit of streaming of the event, and anyone can join us. We don't have any monetization or anything at this time, I'm just trying to get going on this streaming thing. I'm TheBeardedOne150 on Twitch, Youtube, and FB, and TheBeardedOne15 on Twitter. If this is problematic in here, mods, please feel free to remove the part about streaming.
Anyhoo... here's to a fun night! Enjoy, all!

Everyone, here's hoping some actual good new annoucements tonight. Last year we didn't get really all that much, so it's not hard to beat that.

Sephiroth is one of those characters I don't give a damn about, but at least I can see how he fits in the game. It is an iconic character.

Eh I'm not a huge fan of 3rd party characters in Smash so Sephiroth is pretty meh for me, but I do hope they use this as an excuse to fix the travesty that is FFVII Smash music selection. I'm sure some people are hype though. I do like that this adds to the whole heroes and villains thing that they have been playing with in this game though and am always happy to get new characters.

Yeah I like Sephiroth in Smash but little bummed that it’s at least not a character from another FF. But yes hopefully more FF music, even if it is just FF7.
lol love it

Certainly a big get for Smash! Sakurai and Nintendo sure know how to keep the picks surprising and relevant with FF7R just coming out and ongoing! Not necessarily my cup of tea, but certainly understand the appeal!
