Watch today's Nintendo Direct right here with us

Really hoping we'll see more of Nintendo's currently untitled Princess Peach game. Here's a reminder of the glimpse we saw at the last Direct...

Almost time! I've got a fresh coffee and an enormous cookie I'm going to try not to eat all of during the first trailer.

Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown time now, a game no one liked when it was announced via CGI trailer but which feels very good to actually play, people who have gone hands-on actually tell me.

This looks fun! And is better than the Peach emotion stuff the last time she got her own game.

Bandle Tale: A League of Legends Story looks very cute! I am not a League of Legends fan but open to trying other bits of media after falling head over heels for Arcane.

I thought that was decent, some nice things to look forward to for the Nintendo faithful even if we are definitely now in the remake/re-release/B-character-heavy part of Switch's life.

And a bit of a push to clear out anything still hanging around the eShop not yet released.

Wow, that was a disappointing Direct for me. Underwhelmed does not begin to describe my feelings. And yet again nothing on Metroid Prime (remasters or 4). Grrrr... I think at this point you have to ask - do you still want a new Metroid Prime on eight year old hardware, or would you rather play it on something more capable?

The most interesting thing perhaps for me was that summer 2024 date for Luigi's Mansion 2. Either Switch 2 is later than summer or Nintendo is planning to overlap launches for systems in a way we've not seen since 3DS and GBA.

Most importantly, that Direct held my attention enough I still have some cookie left. I'm going to go eat that.

Thanks for joining everyone, and all your comments. See you again soon!
