    Makes the €12.50 paid for the Starlink: Battle for Atlas - Starter Pack even more of a bargain. :)

    Looks like they've put a lot of effort into Fire Emblem: Three Houses.

    It's looking expansive.

    Tetris 99 looks great.

    Funny clip of Deltarune, the one with all the dogs. Earthbound vibe.

    Dead by Daylight looks very rough.

    The Senrua game looks nice. Some of the games have terrible framerates, that racing game and the Assassins Creed games.

    Not too shabby. Disappointed at lack of metroid but Zelda, Astral Chain, and Fire Emblem look great. Tetris for free is nice, and a demo of Yoshi to try. Free Starfox errrr Starlink content too

    Take the crown, best Direct ever!!! Link's Awakening announcement was the cherry on the proverbial cake.

    Hellblade is a 9/10 game. Won lots of awards. Looking forward to that.
    Zelda isn't it till later in the year right?

    Astral Chain, a new game by Platinum is coming on 30th of August, thought it was Bayonetta spin off or no 3 for a second.

    Above looks fab, as does as does Links Awakening, delighted with art style.
    Solid Q2 and Q3 games there in fairness, and all launch soon not Q4, so there lots big hitters info to come yet at E3.

    No METROID Trilogy or Star Fox Racing thou :) Least we got one surprise reveal in Link!!

    I think that was pretty amazing. The Zelda game looks gorgeous. Mario marker 2 definitely features slopes. Plus cat Mario! Lots of cool demos and free stuff. Hmmm looks like I need captain toad for switch , given the extra content. Plus that platinum game looks incredible. Really the switch and Nintendo are looking in rude health. Free 99 player Tetris. I could go on ... :)

    Hoping Astral Chain isn't co-op focused, cos it looks great. Retro absent again and no sign of Prime Trilogy. Always good to leave mystery for future directs I guess :P.

    Great showing though, Three Houses looks really good.

    Tetris Battle Royale
    Links Awakening Remake
    Astral Chain
    FFIX (the best Final Fantasy, fight me) out now
    Dragon Quest looking like it worth waiting for on Switch
    Mario Maker 2
    Fire Emblem

    It's all looking pretty awesome. Even that new Tokyo RPG Factory game looks like it might have potential.

    Dragon Quest - Put on kettle. Fire Emblem - Make tea. So nice of them to give me a couple breaks. :)

    Pretty cool Direct. Will try the demos for Yoshi and Daemon x Machina.

    Just got Hellblade for PS4 at Christmas and both Unravel games, so that saves me money there.

    I never played the Game Boy Zeldas so this is new to me.

    And Astral Chain had me thinking new Xenoblade first. As said, if it's co-op only that'll dampen any interest I have in it

    Definitely the best Direct I've ever watched. I'd gotten use to being underwhelmed but this was full of surprises! Happy going to bed now:)

    Astral Chain looks great, slightly worried about the co-op.
    Links Awakening was a surprise as it had been rumoured for 3DS for quite a while.
    Fire Emblem looks like they are really going down the route of focusing even more on the game outside of the battles, not sure it looks as interesting as I thought it would....I enjoyed that aspect of Persona but I have a lot less confidence in this.
    Deltarune is a nice surprise as was the Bloodstained trailer.
    A few of the third party stuff looked flat out bad except Dragon Quest XI. Mario Maker 2 I was kinda hoping they'd go down the 3D route as I've no interest in playing a 2D Mario again.
