Did you catch yesterday’s Nintendo Direct? You didn’t? Well then, you can find the whole 30-minute video after the jump along with some handy time stamps for the highlights. Some highlights include Nintendo’s updates on upcoming titles, including Sonic: Lost World, The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds for the 3DS and some new gameplay footage of the upcoming Wind Waker HD remake.
About halfway through the presentation, some Europe specific information is provided by Nintendo of Europe president Satoru Shibata. One of the highlights of the European segment included an indie game sizzle reel, showing off the abundance of indie titles heading to the Wii U via the Nintendo eShop.
Other highlights that were shared on the US version of Nintendo Direct included updates to the 3DS and Wii U Virtual Console titles: Super Mario Bros. 3 is coming to both platforms, and Donkey Kong (NES), Wario Land 3 and Tecmo Bowl is heading to the 3DS VC. Additionally, Animal Crossing: New Leaf has been given a community plaza application for the Wii U. This is in addition to the regular Miiverse community page that launched as well.
Here’s the whole of the European version of the August Nintendo Direct. South Africa’s local Nintendo website has provided a super handy breakdown of the whole episode so that you can skip to the bits that you’re most interested in.
