Now, the first thing I'm going to talk about is the Super Smash Brothers related stuff. We finally got footage of the upcoming DLC character Mewtwo in action, and I couldn't be happier with how he turned out. I really do hope he was buffed from his Melee counterpart, since Mewtwo honestly wasn't that great of a character. I'm also super glad Lucas is back too, since as you should know from a previous post, I recently hacked my Wii to play Mother 3.
A large part of this direct seems to have been focused on RPGs, too, like Xenoblade Chronicles 3DS, the new Fire Emblem, and a cross over between Fire Emblem and Shin Megami Tensei. I'm not very experienced in any of these series', so I'm not going to talk too much about them. Although, deep down, I was hoping they would announce Mother 3 for the Americas, since they revealed Lucas as DLC, and because they talked about so many RPGs, but at this point, Mother 3 being localized in English is as likely as Half Life 3 coming out.
The final thing I wanted to talk about is the new content coming to Mario Kart 8. Not only did they reveal more amiibo costumes, but they also announced when the next DLC is coming out, and a new mode to the game: 200cc. If you're unaware, the Mario Kart series has 3 speed settings: 50cc, 100cc, and 150cc. In the Nintendo Direct, they revealed the new 200cc mode, the fastest speed in the series thus far. I am super exited for this new speed setting, since going fast is quite fun indeed. Plus, with the Blue Falcon as a cart in the game, I can pretend I'm playing a new F-Zero. A man can dream...
But yeah, that's all I have to talk about for now. The only question is what will they be anouncing at E3 this year? Maybe they'll bring Mother 3 to America. Oh wait, that's never happening.
