The previews I’ve seen for it last night and before looked really good. That said, I wasn’t prepared at…

When tonight’s Nintendo Direct started…well I wasn’t impressed. Sure Pikmin 4 looked neat. And Bayonetta spinoff looked good. But it was just like “Why Nintendo? Why are we doing this?” Oh ye of little faith right? The Nintendo Direct started to turn around when a demo for…
