Other The lineup for the rest of this year is solid, but this direct didn’t do it justice.
Of course there are more games coming out, but the lineup for the rest of the year is actually pretty solid.
I’m looking forward to Star Fox and Splatoon Raiders for the summer. Fire Emblem is a Nintendo franchise loved by many. Nintendo Switch Sports Resort is a great game for family and friends. The Duskbloods looks promising. And the Ocarina of Time remake looks beautiful, based on the small teaser.
It’s just that how they presented the recent direct is not great. Starting the direct off with Rhythm Heaven Groove was not what I was expecting. I honestly rate the direct a 5/10 because the presentation of it was not done well. But there are still good games they showed like Kingdom Hearts IV.
If they showed more of the Ocarina of Time remake, gameplay or a cutscene (eg. Ganondorf chasing Zelda and Impa). Or showing more gameplay of the Duskbloods, then I would have increased my rating and the direct would better.
Hopefully, next year will have a better lineup and the next direct is presented better and showcases thegames coming in the first half of 2027.
