Already got Pocket Jockey, happy that's on switch so I don't have to play it on my phone.

The Snufkin game looks cute and comfy as fuck

Monster Hunter Stories and Fantasy Life are still on my list. Glad to have a release date announced.

Unicorn Overlord looks really cool, definitely looking forward to that.

Epic Mickey returning is a pleasent surprise, as well as World of Goo!

Reynatis looks promising, going to keep an eye on that more as well.

Just looked up Rynatis, it looks interesting, but since it was only shown in Japanese Direct, I don't think it would be coming to West any time soon.

How is Pocket Jockey?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Ohh, I watched the Japanese Direct because I live in Japan. I didnt realize the EN and JP Direct were different!

Pocket Jockey is great! A nice, pick up and go sort of game. Just what I wanted!

The classic battlefront with multiplayer was the highlight for me. Really hoping the ports good.

Another Crab's Treasure looks dope. Always pumped for a good crab game.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

There is only one move, and it is crab.

I can't be the ONLY one excited about a new Endless Ocean. The last one came out during the Wii era and was such a beatiful, chill, and hella educational game.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I haven't played any Endless Ocean games, but it did look pretty cool! I think I might get it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I liked the Direct, some interesting stuff, with release dates for other stuff that was shown before.

Curious to see how much it'll add the the base game. I loved SMTV but it definitely could've used a bit more development in the storyline.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

True. The base game basically wasted all of the characters.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

The level scaling was worse than the missed story opportunities for me. Not sure that the remaster can change that without fundamentally changing the open world design.
