What I like
Square Enix shows its support with The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales & Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth
Capcom shows its support as well with Monster Hunters Stories 3, Pragmata & Resident Evil Requiem (with amiibo out this summer)
Tokyo Scramble looks interesting
Falcom Kyoto Xanadu looks interesting
Nice to see Ganblue Fantasy: Relink - Endless Rangnarok & Tales of Arise - Beyond the Dawn Edition are coming to Switch 2
Bethesda shows us Oblivion Remastered, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle (now confirmed to be in a Switch 2 cart) & Fallout 4 on Switch 2
What I didn’t like/Mix/Not Sure
While Bethesda's announcements were good, some games (like Doom The Dark Ages) were missing (not to mention Fallout 4 & Oblivion Remastered are a code in a box)
Missed opportunity for Microsoft (outside of Bethesda) to show some of their games for the Switch 2.
Knowing that a majority of 3rd parties games on Switch 2 will either be a game key card or code in a box (code in a box is the worst)
No real “WOW” moment for this direct (since most of these games a lot of folks knew they were coming to the Switch 2)
