I bought Hyrule Warriors and the DLC for WiiU, hit a wall in a Death Mountain stage and never went back to it. I doubt I double dip.

Mario Tennis looks nice but I doubt I'd get it.

My brother has Pokken DX so the DLC he should like.

Odyssey DLC is so meh.... free...sure... but no new Kingdoms? A balloon finding mini game?

SURPRISES TO ME:

No Yoshi game info.

No paid online/Switch VC info.

I gather that Dark Souls thing is HUGE so...

Surprised not now but.....
--Smash Bros?
--Animal Crossing?
--Fire Emblem?

The WiiU ports chosen...

You should give Ys 8 another run...the series is made in a way that each can be played on their own, and IMO Ys has some of the best JRPG combat out there and the best/most consistently good soundtracks in video games in general.

People are already commenting on how the Balloon Finding DLC is just rehashing one of the bigger criticisms of Odyssey, the fact that most of the game completion is done by random find-a-whatever and not through any different mechanics.

Dark Souls really shouldn't be a big deal, but I guess it is to some people. That's a 7.5 year old game, so the fact that they're pumped they can port it really doesn't speak highly about the power of the console and the ability for the AAA multi-plats to be able to play natively on it.

The port selection does leave much to be desired, and I'm shocked that they left what many consider to be their big 2018 tentpoles (FE:16, Yoshi, and Smash) completely without mention. Seems like an odd way to try to build on the console momentum if you ask me.

This is an early 2018 slate for the most part. Big guns will be announced close to and at E3. Plus we are assuming Pokémon will be the tentpole Holiday game.
