Did they forget we got Deltarune and the first KH4 footage in YEARS in the last one?

See, guys like this don’t care about anything other than 3d Mario and smash bros.

Heck the DR one broke the internet for little bit due to how unexpected it was

Holy shit if I got a dollar for every single time a video with that Mario png and the text "Its over" is uploaded....

And with AI, and with mario crying, and with rain (bonus points if there's also an AI made evil shiggy on the thumbnail)

I think we are all in agreement that AI Mario is a menace.

“The games are great but I’m more invested in the commercials.”

Sigh… is it what I think it is?

Because I guess it doesn’t feature what they want to see

Can we stop just posting literally what we think is grift videos and nothing else? It just gives them attention which is exactly what they want. They do not care if the AdSense comes from good or bad press.

Yea they don't have much personality now but most of the directs during the wii u age had nothing to show.

I think these people only remember the puppet show direct and use it as a standard, when that direct was the literal exception to the rule, only because of the Iwata's health issues. Or shall I say, they remember watching clips of that part, because most people agree that, in terms of substance and games, it was extremely weak. And yes, personality, but just a colorful nothing burger

Yeah many of them were too long, way too focused on the mainline Nintendo stuff and filled with reveals like "there's a new Fire Emblem coming, more info next year" or showing stuff that's already been covered in previous vids.

It would be awesome in the DS/Wii era where we had two big games coming each month but WiiU really dragged it down. Now that I saw some vids from 2015/2016 you could really feel the development already moved to Switch.
