Can someone summarize all the announcements? I’m on my phone at the moment.

Earthbound coming to VCU
Zelda Oracle of Ages & Seasons coming to eShop
New Zelda game in the same universe as LttP (calling it a sequel is misleading)
New Mario Party
Mario & Luigi 3DS release date
New eShop games from Level 5 and one from Inafune
New Prof. Layton game
SMT4 North American release date + Collector’s Edition
New DKCR details
Bravely Default coming to North America next year
The man just has no personality.
Iwata, Reggie or that other guy?
actually none of them really have personality but that is the UK direct so no Reggie there. I just posted it so people could see some of the gameplay and I couldnt not find the NA Direct.
Damn, new zelda looks beautiful. They really did turn the 3ds around…now if only they could do something about that wii u >_<
Anyone who says that they hate their 3ds or that it is garbage is just ignorant.
It’s optional. Regular difficulty is still available. And there will be 8 new stages.
Dream Team looks badass. The style of it is very pretty. I love the animation. Reminds me of Super Mario RPG meets Mario & Luigi.
Zelda… wow. Looks really damn good. I hope they still release a stereoscopic 3D remake of LttP though.
Also, Iwata previously said that Majora’s Mask would only be a possibility after a new 3DS Zelda comes out. This is a new 3DS Zelda, so we might be getting Majora’s Mask soon. Time to push some Moonfall action.
EDIT: I see SRK has no color differentiation between text and links in black mode. Well done, SRK.

A handful of good new reasons to own a 3DS. Still wish the eShop wasn’t garbage, but retail will bring the goods, and a flashcard will come in handy.
Why I cannot play Super Nintendo and other types of titles on the go is beyond me…
man…I was at work all day and just got home. I missed out and am now trying to catch up. I only saw a screenshot of the new Zelda and my eyes bugged out. Gonna go watch that direct.
I may have to cop a 3ds… I’ve been looking at getting one… My xbox is only really used for 3rd Strike and dvds now…
New Zelda looks good and the Oracle games were actually my first Zelda games so I will gladly replay them again. Have to see Yoshi’s island on the 3DS to decide if I like the new graphics.
Went and downloaded that 3D trailer of Zelda from the eShop and it looks pretty good. Can’t wait! The whole painting on the wall ability definitely has some hard puzzle potential.
very hyped for zelda ages/seasons. 3DS does it again!
I’m kind of disappointed that the new Zelda will be using 3d models instead of sprites. Also the new Yoshi’s Island lacks the hand drawn looking black outlines on everything.
In any case I’m glad that those are new games coming out.
Yo New Zelda looks fucking unbelievable classic LttP game play but the added depth and height mechanic along with the wall blending mechanic really elevated my hype THAT is how classic franchises can retain their fun while incorporating innovative idea omg I’m so excited for it I have full confidence it will be worthy of the zelda name. Also DKCR3D is not just a quick and dirty port, a new optional mode which is useless to me and 8 new levels woot!
Oracle of ages/seasons are up there with OoT and LttP IMO, absolutely top shelf gaming I’d cop them but are eshop purchases tied to the system? I’d be pissed if they didn’t transfer over to nintendo’s future handhelds. Why can’t nintendo make it simple and have all eshop purchases transferrable between all current and future systems…oh wait $$$ I forgot cashcom syndrome.
Wooow, a sequel to Link to the Past?!
Ace Attorney 5 will be out July 25th in Japan
So we know this will get localized at some point we just don’t know when…hopefully E3? and there hasn’t been any news on Prof. vs Ace in awhile…
We don’t know if it’s a “sequel”. All we know is it’s in the same world/universe.
In related (yet wholly unofficial) news, people should check these out:
