In less than an hour, Nintendo turned 2024 into one of their most exciting years. Filled with a variety of new games from their familiar IPs, the back half of the year has a lot to look forward to. Mario & Luigi: Brotherhood is an interesting, as developer Alpha Dream has been shuttered for awhile. It’s also interesting to see not one, but two! PlayStation IP on the Switch. LEGO Horizon Adventures and Stray coming to a Nintendo platform bears good omen for the future of both platforms. And of course, getting a first look at Metroid Prime 4, now titled Beyond, after over five years is a good sign for the game’s development. What are you excited to play from this Direct?
