Marty Party, designed around Amiibos.

This as the only future we could have expected.

 

[jimmyjimmyo]

Well that was shit

 

[Sinthetic]

Biggest disappointment of the entire E3 for me.

 

[Bam]

This was not the Animal Crossing game I was hoping for.

 

[Forkball]

My soul was crushed when those board spaces popped up.

 

[InfiniteBento]

I don't even care about the game give me the amiibos. Sweet Jesus.

 

[SmithnCo]

My soul hurts

 

[18-Volt]

This is gonna sell millions of Wii U's in Japan.

 

[thoseAREmySHOES]

My soul was crushed when those board spaces popped up.

Mine too. I let out an audible sigh.

 

[komorebi]

*sigh*

I was SO happy when I saw AC Wii U. Then I...started paying close attention.

 

[DrArchon]

It didn't even show if you can use non-AC amiibo with it. You better be able to. I can't imagine a dumber idea than calling a game "Amiibo Festival" and only letting you use one kind of Amiibo.

Christ, can we just get a Skylanders clone already? I want to use my Shulk and Lucario in more than one game.

 

[NimbusD]

I could not be less interested in a game.

I just hope to god this thing funds a real AC game in the future.

 

[Coketruck]

My soul was crushed when those board spaces popped up.

Ditto. "Awesome!... Wait... What... Ah, crap."

 

[Roo]

People asked for Animal Crossing for Wii U
They get Animal Crossing for Wii U

 

[danwu]

sounds intersting

 

[Tempy]

I was cheering for a new Animal Crossing WiiU entry when this showed up.

Then realized it was a board game...


sigh.

 

[Hyrule Warrior]

Yeah boooo Nintendo. bad form.

 

[TreasureHunterG]

I'm wondering if Nintendo is being serious by doing this. I mean... really?

 

[Beelzebufo]

Truth be told, this is the most horrified and depressed a video game has made me feel in I don't even know how long.

Like you copied Mario Party 10?

 

[gillty]

Animal Crossing just works better on handheld devices.

You want an Animal Crossing for your WiiU? You get it in the form of a spinoff. Did you all really expect a mainline AC game after what has been said in this regard?

 

[Salsa]

im alright with this. main animal crossing staying on handhelds is cool with me

 

[MLH]

This looks like a really bland board game.

I love Animal Crossing at least the Happy Home game on 3DS looks good.

 

[JimJamJones]

This hurts the most of all out of everything in that "event".

 

[Out_Of_Ammo]

I got exited for 5 seconds when I saw AC on Wii U. Then I saw it was a fucking boardgame.

 

[Pseudo_Sam]

What the fuck, this sucks ass. WHY

Tell that to my mom who constantly asking when the next Animal Crossing is gonna come out that she can play, when the last one she had was City Folk. She hates handhelds, because the screen is too small for her. She plays games when she's relaxing at home.

 

[8BitsAtATime]

I love it. I wish they had called Animal Crossing Fortune Street

 

[Clefargle]

That really hurt

But this is stupid. It works great on consoles.

 

[CronoShot]

Zelda, Metroid, Animal Crossing.

[SeanR1221]

I can't decide if this or the Metroid troll was worse.

There was a ton of potential for a AC game on Wii U.

 

[entremet]

LOL. Wii U is such a failure its not getting a real Animal Crossing, breaking the 4 generation console streak.

 

[InfiniteBento]

Breaks my heart that they didn't just make AC regularly for the Wii U. I was so damn hopeful too.

 

[Thorakai]

Home Maker had more to be hyped about than this thing

 

[ZachDeKoromaru]

I'm not interested in this but GIVE ME ALL OF THE ISABELLE AMIIBO.

 

[Psyrgery ES]

Not like this.gif

 

[FiveMinuteHero]

I feel trolled. I was expecting a real Animal Crossing game on Wii U.

 

[Tempy]

This is gonna sell millions of Wii U's in Japan.

It won't. This isn't a regular Animal Crossing game.

 

[A Link to the Past]

They basically decided to fuck with every franchise.

No AC Wii U : but a somehow average AC Mario Party.
No Metroid game : Metroid Prime co-op spin-off on 3DS.
No Zelda Wii U : Four Swords minus one.

What's next ?

I can see the first two, but the third game looks great. It's online "Three Swords"! How is it people are complaining that this exists???

 

[Neoriceisgood]

This is literally what tipped the direct from dull into outright awful to me.

 

[KageZero]

I never felt this dissapointed about nintendo like after this e3. Too much focus on amiibos in last time, too much of diffrent amiibos it's just too much. Only 1 new game announced for the wiiu so i guess the platform is now certainly dead..

I hope they are invensting all their power into a new console but... Such a weird felling always thought highly about them but this was really bad

 

[billeh]

Maybe the next AC will be a launch title for the NX and feature both a mobile and console version. Maybe they didn't waste all those awesome assets just on Amiibo Party.

 

[Sammy Samusu]

I'll buy it day one if it supports online play.

 

[web01]

So they went to the effort of updating the 3DS version graphics to WiiU standards for this.
Extremely disappointed.

 

[TheCongressman1]

This is literally what tipped the direct from dull into outright awful to me.

Yep. The only thing I was looking forward to was a console Animal Crossing, so this just ruined my day. I can NOT believe it.

 

[Never Forever]

I actually wouldn't mind buying this for my younger sister, she loves everything Animal Crossing related and she digs Mario Party and Wii Party and etc etc

Still, Amiibo being right there in the title probably means I'm not able to get around that shit, so that's a gift idea out the window. Sigh. I was trying to be a grown-up and not sink my cash in plastic figurine crap, but now they might be mandatory to play a video game. Luckily it's not one I'm particularly interested in, but it's still ew

 

[watershed]

It seems like this entire digital event was about not delivering on fan expectations. Metroid turns into a non-Samus 4 player co-op game for the 3ds, Animal Crossing WiiU is a party game...

 

[EraldoCoil]

I just want the KK amiibo.

 

[starmud]

i cant help buy laugh after all the ire i got from friends for saying wiiu will never see a true AC.
