New games I'd like to see would be Endless Ocean 3, Animal Crossing and Harvest Moon.

I'd also like Hyrule Warriors Deluxe which would combine Hyrule Warriors with Hyrule Warriors Legends and include all of the DLC (Characters, Weapons, Maps etc) in one package, plus add a few more of each. It'd be an actual Deluxe title that'd make sense and not feel like a rip off.

Seem I was right about it being released and most of the games I predicted are on this list. Hopefully I'll be able to get one of these since I missed out on the NES Classic Edition.

Nintendo usually always wins it for me. Having said that, in my opinion this was one of their worst showings in quite some time.

It was nice to see Super Mario Odyssey and get a release date. This was the main highlight for them but it's not enough to keep the Switch alive. If this is all they have to show right now then the Switch is going to be in serious trouble. Not announcing any bundles or anything about localizing Monster Hunter XX for the west are seriously going to hurt Nintendo down the road.

Remaking an old Metroid game, adding one new mode to Mario and Luigi Super Star Saga and adding Amiibo functionality to both just shows how much Nintendo likes Milk. It's ridiculous how much they've turned into a major cash cow. I guess that's their way of getting around slapping the word Deluxe on everything.

What was the point of announcing Metroid Prime 4 and the new Pokémon game right now if they have nothing to show for them? Would've made a lot more sense to just wait until their next direct.

In the Treehouse segments, way too much time was and is still being spent on each game while only about 15-20 minutes tops is needed. Most of the games shown were for 45 minutes each while some lasted up to an hour and a half. It made it feel as though they had nothing to show and decided to drag everything out.

And while Mario+Rabbids Kingdom Battle looks interesting, the only other noteworthy games for me personally are the new Kirby and Yoshi games. But they don't come out until next year.

Predictions, predictions....

1. Mario Odyssey is the main highlight as expected. There's statues of Mario holding his sentient cap, the Hat flying machine, Bowser in his pimp costume. Nothing we haven't seen before. The booth is decorated to look like New Donk City and there are like 20+ monitors set up there for the public to play. There is a video feed, and new stuff shown. Mushroom Kingdom to be a playable level. Probably the intro level. Other new levels shown are a Haunted Mansion of sorts as well as a sky level with towers. Old powerups, fire flower, starman, propeller hat, cloud hat return. I suspect they are tied to the Crazy Cap store and the sentient hat this time instead of pickups. New powerup that seems to give Mario electricity powers exists. More footage of existing levels are also shown.

2. ARMS gets a booth as expected. Nothing exciting

3. Splatoon 2 gets a booth. There is a video feed there too. A level with lots of slopes resembling an indoor skate park is shown and there's also a level with floating platforms in like a swimming pool or something.

4. Mario and Rabbids Kingdom Battle gets a booth as well. Not sure if this has been leaked yet but the player character appears to be a UFO rabbit of sorts commanding the characters around.

5. Fire Emblem Warriors gets a booth. The mage (Tharja?) from Awakening is playable, as are Marth and Camilla.

6. Pokken Tournament gets a booth.

7. Xenoblade 2 gets a booth. Nothing very interesting, looks like the first one with an anime skin. No idea what the story is, but the rolling grassy fantasy areas are there.

8. Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE is getting a port.

9. Pilotwings + Waverace is a new game, set on wuhu island and resembles the 3ds pilotwings and wii sports resort jetskiing.

10. Square Enix's octopath traveller is there

11. Sonic Mania and Forces have booths. There is a new level in Mania that is shown off, similar to sky sanctuary. Forces is, well, forces.

12. Monster Hunter XX port is coming. I know it's been announced in Japan but this is the localised version. 3ds and switch versions will both be playable.

13. Sin and Punishment Angel's Ascent is a new game in the Sin and Punishment series.

14. Skyrim for Nintendo Switch has a booth. Graphics seem to be improved.

15. Project Mekuru (that low budget panel flipping eshop game) has a booth.

16. Speaking of 3ds, Ever Oasis, Hey Pikmin, Pokemon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, and the new Kirby eshop games will all be playable.

17. There are also tons of indies including Stardew valley and Yooka Laylee.

Pokken tournament for switch. A port with some extra's from Wii U.

Pokemon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon for 3DS... rehashes.

Pokemon Gold & Silver available on Virtual Console on the 3DS.

I'm not impressed.

Thanks was trying to figure out what was shown...guess nothing to be excited about

Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon were the only good things shown. Sun and Moon are best games in the series so having more to do in Alola is fantastic.

Pokken Tournament Deluxe has five new Pokémon added and I think they said a few new modes releasing Sept 22 alongside Pokémon Gold and Silver.

Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon have an alternate story with new Pokémon not in the original versions releasing Nov 17.

I voted Gamecube because of the controller. It's the most comfortable controller ever made. Not to mention that playing Smash Bros without a Gamecube controller is like playing Mario Kart without a Wii Wheel, it just doesn't work. Although the WiiU Pro Controller is a close second.
