    For me, aside from the Fatal Frame confirmation, the only real perk was the Mario Kart DLC which looks aces.

    The new Amiibo's are all a miss, I actively groaned when I saw the wool Yoshi Amiibo. I get the idea, but it just made it feel like they were going to start shoving NFC chips into anything for a buck now. Another one still not being convinced by Splatoon when they show it, I feel like it's going to be like a blind buy. The lack of concrete Xenosaga X details, especially in the wake of Zelda, was probably the worst bit. 100%, if Nintendo want to keep the good ship WiiU afloat even to the level it is now, E3 is critical for them

      The Wii U isn't a ship, it's a raft, and one with a very fat man on top.

        The WiiU might not have many games, but the ones it does have...well, they all really appeal to me. Excited about SMT x FE and pleased they are localising Project Zero 5 - hopefully that will come sooner rather than later as it's been out in Japan for over 6 months.

        The new Amiibos er ma gerd. I have resisted till now as I don't want an empty bank account and a woman-terrifying house filled with tiny toys, but I've gotta get the Splatoon squid pack and the Yarn Yoshi plushy pack. They look great.

        Also, 200cc!!!

        Worrying that we heard nothing of Xenoblade though...very worrying. Seems optimistic to think we might get it in 2015 in English now.

          Super excited for SMT X FE. That looks amazing. New Fire Emblem looks great and I'm so happy that Fatal Frame is coming over. Great Direct and lots of stuff I'm excited for.

            Am I the only one massively disappointed by SMTxFE? I was kinda pumped at the idea, but then school idols popped up. Urgh. Most probably the game will be great but...urgh, school idols? On the other hand, the new FE looks great.

              I was expecting it to be a super-dark SRPG, and well, it doesn't seem to be either of those things. I'm still interested though, and just really glad it's not a dead project.

                It looks very Persona inspired to me (no bad thing!).

                And what game isn't improved by the addition of idols o_O

                  Apparently Nintendo's financials have confirmed most WiiU sales took place over Xmas and the system has sold 9.2m units worldwide. They're on target to meet targets of selling 9.5m by end of June. The WiiU will be 3yrs old by the time it cracks 10m. That is awful, what are we thinking... 14m by the time NX hits?

                    I really liked the concept of the public vote for new Smash Brothers fighters; anyone game for a Bordersdown led campaign to get Jet Set Willy added to the roster? This must happen!

                      Has anyone made a quick itemised summary of the Direct?

                                They can keep the amiibos.
                                Happy to get more modes for Mario Kart, although in truth I'm crap at it, so I rarely venture into 150cc
                                Splatoon is definitely a wait and see game for me.
                                Can't wait for Mario Maker.
                                Happy with N64 games on Wii U
