Warning: A lot of figurative screaming and extreme fanboying are in this post, bear with me
The latest Nintendo Direct gave me a lot of reason to feel excited while at the same time lament over the fact that the upcoming games for the New Nintendo 3DS are a little far away from my grasp thanks to the amount of rupees I have left after the holidays...below zero, like the temperature of the heart of those girls who brought me down, aww. Anyway, here's the video (I suggest watching it on youtube, it's clearer and bigger there).
Aghh, my news feed is dominated by posts about the latest Nintendo Direct and all of them from Kotaku to IGN cry the New Nintendo 3DS and all of its upcoming games. The 3DS overshadowed the Wii U this time the way it should since the release of the New Nintendo 3DS is a big deal. The new handheld sports an improved stereoscopic 3D which employs face-tracking technology automatically adjusting the 3D relative to the position of the gamer's head, thus optimizing the 3D experience. There's also the C-stick which functions as a second C-pad mostly for camera control on the announced games. Two new shoulder buttons are added giving more reason to gamers that it's time to retire the circle pad pro. Aside from its new hardware features, the New 3DS boasts faster processing power and longer battery life (can we just get to the Zelda part, I'm really excited right now). And it now has amiibo support, excellent!
Along with the release of the latest child of the 3DS family are two titles with an immense fanbase, Monster Hunter and The Legend of Zelda. While I'm not a fan of MH watching its part on the Nintendo Direct kinda (just kinda) made me want to retry MH3 before I start to consider the adventurous merits of MH4U, I found it convincing as a new gamer to the well established franchise but for now I don't think it's a must have on my part. But I'm pretty sure a lot of its die hard fans are now rolling on the floor etching time away until its release, the passion of those guys (like ProJared, for example) is incedible.
Zelda on the other hand, oh my god Zelda, MAJORA'S MASK COMES OUT FEB 13. BEST.PRE-VALENTINES.EVUUUUUUUUUUR ASDFGHJHGFDSADFGHH.
Ahem. I don't even want to think that my wallet's lifeless right now. Even my whole allowance next semester is completely drained. I think I have to cut grass to find some rupees now. Majora's Mask, I.WANT.
The limited edition Majora's Mask themed New Nintendo 3DS is utterly majestic with the intensity of a thousand moons...falling down, I'm sorry, not a good joke. But look, just look at this magnificence and tell me you don't want to marry this:
Beautiful. Beyond compare. |
Taneleer Tivan would climax at the sight of this, I don't even know if he's a Zelda fan but you guys get the point.
Although short, the Wii U part of the latest Nintendo Direct also had a lot of good news the most notable being the upcoming release of previous Wii titles now for the Wii U in digital download format. Super Mario Galaxy 2 is now available, while the Metroid Prime trilogy a little later this month. But heck, Majora's Mask on Feb. 13.
I'm gonna sleep now.
