What a phenomenally refreshing Nintendo Direct! Now that it's all wrapped, we are basking in the glow of that glorious Super Smash Brothers reveal, as well as finally getting that confirmation that South Park: The Fractured But Whole was also making its way to the hybrid console. Nevermind the fact that we're still squeeing over the Okami port, as well as Crash Bandicoot making his way over onto a new home as well!

There was a lot to be excited for and some of you may have missed it. For those that couldn't watch the event live, this one is for you!

Nintendo 3DS Announcements

The Nintendo Switch wasn't the only thing to get a little love! The 3DS also has a few interesting experiences lined up, including Warioware Gold and even more of our favourite Mario brothers! Here's what's coming out for the handheld device in the future:

  • Warioware Gold - August 3rd
  • Dillon's Dead Heat Breakers - May 24th
  • Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey - 2019
  • Luigi's Mansion 3DS Remake - 2018

Albeit the list is noticeably shorter, that does make sense given that the Switch also acts as a portable device. All in all, it was an amazing Direct and we can't wait to see what else the Big N has in store for us in the coming years! We're still waiting on that Diablo III Switch confirmation!
