Ahh I just searched the posts and it was Nate who said the collection exists last February

I'm guessing he was talking about the legitimacy of the site. The same retailer correctly leaked Assassin's Creed Rebel Collection, The Witcher 3 and Saints Row IV. I don't think he himself knew something.

It's been more than a year, obviously Batman was just a mistake.

Possibly, or it was a game being made exclusively for the Switch 2/Pro? Mass Effect could be the same if the retailer mentioned that as well (just trying to wish this stuff into existence haha)

Only game I’m sure I’m buying day one is Zelda, but a lot of the other stuff does look neat. I’d say Pikmin 4, Rain Code and Fantasy Life are the most interesting after Zelda.

Why aren’t you playing Metroid Prime Remastered right now is what you should be asking yourself.

I am waiting for the physical version which doesn't come out till March 3rd in Europe. Can't even pre-order it anywhere in Germany right now smh.

I never once doubted this Direct, and if anyone posts any evidence to the contrary I'm gonna call deepfake
 
I still can't believe Metroid Prime Remastered shadowdropped. In a HEADLINE. After an incredible previous announcement with GB/GBA. And it might be the most visually impressive game on the system.

Did anybody else have an out-of-body experience for that 5-minute segment from NSO through Metroid? Holy shit lmfao

Nintendo knows how to build the hype. it was very well executed.
 
May being almost empty is funny. I noticed Fuga 2 for 11 May, yeah I'm not sure how that will work out. Would have been epic to only have Zelda release that month (without a single digital release).

Anyway lots of games I'm interested in. I definitely will buy Pikmin, Octopath and Zelda until july and already playing Prime HD. Now there is a huge list of stuff I want to buy after these but I'll wait and see. I don't want to overbuy any games as I already have a good few games I want to properly play but didn't have time for yet. Advance Wars 1+2 is tempting but too expensive imo.

Been rewatching the Direct twice now, but with reactions. It was such an on fire presentation. Back half was loaded with megatons.

The only thing that sort of rained on the end a bit was that the TotK trailer contained the same music from the E3 2021 trailer during the back half. Was hoping to hear something new, since all of the trailer music so far has been incredible.

I was okay with them reusing that great music, but the way they transitioned into it was rather rushed and jarring imo. So that rained a little on me too.

Best Direct, hell, best showing from any platform holder in a while. The shadowdrop trifecta of GB, GBA, and Prime was so good. All three were instantly downloaded. My first time giving Prime a real shot.

Crossing fingers for a Wind Waker shadowdrop this year.

There were so many hits I keep forgetting the long rumoured Ghost Trick was also announced. That says a lot.

And Advance Wars dated. Goddamn. Switch is gonna have a beastly year.

It broke my brain. GB/GBA was huge and unexpected (at least in February). With Directs I'm happy if there's 1 or 2 things I can look forward to, and thrilled if one of those is something I can play later that day. Those are usually smaller, so I was happy with GB/GBA. I counted Metroid out and figured they'd close the show with Zelda and that would still be solid.

Then Takahashi snapped and the headline shows Metroid Prime Remastered. WHAT. "Drop Imminent". I lost my shit. Metroid always seems to be a wildcard and their other rules don't apply.

So do people think that Metroid Prime 4 will start getting consistent showings from the next Direct after Tears of the Kingdom's release onwards? Because that's kind of where I'm at with the shadow drop and us not knowing much about the post July lineup.
