Here's some of what stood out for me in Nintendo's E3 showcase.
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 had loads of epic visuals. It reminds me of the opening cinematic to Final Fantasy XII. I should really get a Switch when I can.
Fire Emblem Warriors will be like Dragon Quest Warriors, I guess, and we’ll slice and dice the hoards. I suppose that means the strategy elements are out. Fine. I’ll check it out anyway.
The Breath of the Wild DLC packs are just . . . wow! I want to play this game. I like the amiibos. They are definitely worth collecting.
Mario and Rabbids together? Wah?! After watching it, I feel it’s kind of neat. I like those Rabbids and their humor but what about the gameplay. In the past they were sometimes fine and sometimes really annoying. This looks good though will less gimmicky Wiimote shaking nonsense.
Mario is in a truly open world in Super Mario Odyssey. Cool! He can possess creatures and objects with his hat. Interesting. It reminds me of the way Crypto could possess the minds of any human in Destroy All Humans!. Mario gets to possess vehicles and objects, so that’s even cooler and expands the gameplay exponentially.
Overall a pretty good showing by Nintendo. I really could care less about the portablitiy of the Switch in that opening segement. I want those big epic titles for my tv like Breath of the Wild and Xenoblade Chronicles.
