Dragon Quest XI S was given the spotlight on Nintendo Treehouse: Live at E3 2019 with a bunch of gameplay. We’ve included the recording below.
Sekai Games has announced a handful of games for Switch. Root Double: Before Crime After Days, Fault: Milestone One, Heart of the Woods, World End Economica, and Narcissu will be released starting this year. Find the full details below.
One of the big questions coming out of the first trailer for Zelda: Breath of the Wild’s sequel is whether or not Zelda will be playable. Unfortunately, Nintendo is keeping quiet.
Here’s an exchange between Kotaku and series producer Eiji Aonuma about the subject:
Social media analytics company Fizziology has offered some insight into the Twitter mentions for the E3 2019 Nintendo Direct.
Animal Crossing: New Horizons received a good majority of attention, as did the Zelda: Breath of the Wild sequel. The next closest was Banjo-Kazooie in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, but there’s a decent gap there.
Animal Crossing: New Horizons’ mentions had some negativity due to the game’s delay, but apparently only 2% of the overall social reactions were people upset about that news.
Prior to the official airing of the E3 2019 Nintendo Direct, select members of the media were able to view it earlier in the week. But in that particular presentation, the event ended with the announcement of Banjo-Kazooie in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. As we know, the true Nintendo Direct concluded with the reveal of Zelda: Breath of the Wild’s sequel.
Obviously the new Zelda is a huge announcement, and it’s something Nintendo wanted to keep under wraps. Given the copious amount of leaks surrounding E3 this year, you can’t really blame them for leaving it out. Nintendo did have an embargo in place, but likely didn’t want to take any chances.
One of the games we could have possibly seen during this week’s Nintendo Direct was Bayonetta 3. In the end though, the title didn’t appear. We also haven’t heard anything about it since the original announcement at The Game Awards 2017.
Despite the silence, PlatinumGames studio head Atsushi Inaba told VGC that “development is actually going quite well.” When asked if Bayonetta 3’s absence at E3 2019, Inaba said:
On Nintendo Treehouse: Live at E3 2019 a short while ago, Daemon X Machina’s co-op multiplayer was shown off. Continue on below for the full recording.
Grasshopper Manufacture has come out with an alternate “F*ckhead Version” of its E3 2019 trailer for No More Heroes 3. See it below.
Daemon X Machina will be following in the footsteps of other Switch games with post-release plans. During a Nintendo Treehouse: Live at E3 2019 segment, it was confirmed that more content will be added. Competitive multiplayer mode will be added sometime after release. It’s expected to arrive fairly soon after.
Super Mario Maker 2 appeared again during Nintendo Treehouse: Live at E3 2019 with more gameplay. Check out the recording below.
