Okay, yeah, with that qualification, it&#8217;s obvious that I was 90% in it just for the Smash. But hey, there were other neat things, too! Let&#8217;s take a look at the sentence or two that I had to say about them!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Daemon X Machina<\/strong> &#8211; OOH ANIME MECHS. I LIKE. It&#8217;s like the best parts of Xenoblade X but made by Platinum and Suda51. (Except not. It&#8217;s actually Marvelous making it.)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Xenoblade 2 DLC<\/strong> &#8211; Speaking of Xenoblade&#8230; Hey it&#8217;s that promised story expansion DLC for the game that I&#8217;ve still only seen like 50% of. It&#8217;s a prequel with a new titan, I guess? I don&#8217;t know, the narration was Japanese and my phone was sitting on a stand that obscured the subtitles. Obviously I&#8217;m going in on it, because Xenoblade 2 is freakin&#8217; sweet and yeah I&#8217;ll take any more of it that they&#8217;re willing to give me.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pok\u00e9mon Let&#8217;s Go<\/strong> &#8211; No new information here. Just Reggie pimping the lame Pok\u00e9ball Plus accessory. But it does give you a free Mew, so&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Super Mario Party\u00a0<\/strong>&#8211; I don&#8217;t have friends, so I don&#8217;t care. And even if I did, I&#8217;m sure they&#8217;d just dump all over it instead of playing with me. Dig the logo, though.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fire Emblem: Three Houses<\/strong> &#8211; It&#8217;s Fire Emblem on Switch, which is so cool, which I&#8217;m down with. But I have played exactly one Fire Emblem game ever, and I have my doubts that I&#8217;ll be adding this one to the list any time soon.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fortnite<\/strong> &#8211; Nope. Don&#8217;t care. I do like how not-gritty it is, though. And cool that it&#8217;s out NOW.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Overcooked 2<\/strong> &#8211; I&#8217;ve heard many times that Overcooked is great, but again, with the lack of friends and all.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Killer Queen Black<\/strong> &#8211; Like, seriously. No friends. Okay, one friend. But that&#8217;s still not really enough to care about multiplayer party games.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hollow Knight<\/strong> &#8211; Ah! A single-player game! There we go! But I&#8217;ve played it already, so&#8230; oh, what? It&#8217;s available today? And only $17? Hey, I mean, it&#8217;s not like<em> I<\/em> paid money to play it the first time&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Octopath Traveler<\/strong> &#8211; New demo with carry-over data&#8230; but I really don&#8217;t have time to fit that in at the moment. I don&#8217;t even know that I&#8217;ll be able to make time for the full game come July.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sizzle reel<\/strong> &#8211; Mostly things shown at other presentations, or that are already out, or are getting DLC soon. Nothing that made me shriek with joy. Dark Souls still doesn&#8217;t have a release date, and Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate made an appearance. Hi, 5 seconds of Mega Man 11!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Super Smash Bros Ultimate<\/strong> &#8211; There was a<em> lot<\/em> to process here, so rather than trying to clean it up, here&#8217;s my stream-of-consciousness notes, hastily typed as I was watching: Oh Sakurai, you joker. Link has new moves!\u00a0 Zelda is Link Between Worlds style!! (&lt;3) Ice Climbers are back! Pok\u00e9mon trainer! Lucas! Ryu! Ganondorf looks better than ever! Cloud! SNAKE IS BACK! Pichu! Toon Link AND Young Link! Wolf! MEGAMAN! <strong><em>Every fighter ever is back!<\/em><\/strong> This is amazing news!\u00a0 BIG BLUUUUE! Daisy?? (Aw, dangit.) Inkling seems awesome, and I love the Squid Sisters assist trophy. But where&#8217;s Off The Hook? Bomberman assist trophy? Nice! Ooh and a deadly Fake Smash Ball! GOOD LORD RIDLEY MURDERED MARIO AND MEGA MAN.<\/p>\n<p>Verdict: Super Smash Bros Ultimate is out on December 7 and that&#8217;s <em>all that matters<\/em>. Everything else was gravy at best, or I just didn&#8217;t care. Smash is all I wanted from this presentation. It&#8217;s all I wanted from this E3. And by God, they delivered!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is it: the big collection of video game commercials that I&#8217;d been aching for since March.
