Alright. I won a sealed game lot recently and was thinking I might want to unseal and play one of them.

Are any of the following good and fun to play or are they trash that is fit to only sit on my shelf and accrue value?:

Tales of Symphonia Remastered
Kirby RTD Delux
Pokemon Brilliant Diamond
Triangle Strategy
Super Mega Baseball 4
Kirby Star Allies
Sonic Mania
Sonic Forces
Mario Tennis Aces
Wario Ware: Get It Together
Pokemon Sword (lol this is a double, already have it sealed)
The Smurfs Village


Edit: Oh no, I googled Tales and the port sucked. That was the one I was thinking of most.

I really enjoy Kirby Star Allies. Its casual fun even by yourself. Its just a little too short. But the puzzle collecting adds replay value.
I still have to play the new Kirby and the Faggot Land.

Spoiler alert since I'll be writing a review soon enough, but after TotK I didn't play any of those and instead picked a game way out of left field to play. They're still on my list of considerations though. Even the shitty Smurfs game. But I also have current gen of Pokemon that I haven't got yet, the Prime Remaster, Mario RPG remaster, Mario Wonder, the third game from Collection of Mana (which I've been sitting on for literal years), shit's stacking up. Or I could give Captain Toad another go... Or buy a PS5...

My dude, you need to play your games lol. Just like I need to play my copy of Monster Hunter: Rise. Personally am looking forward to getting the prime remaster in the future, for some FPS action.

Played a little of the OG Metroid on a raspberry pi emulator and my NES mini, it's fun but fucking hard. I'm not gonna unlock the bikini Samus any time soon lol.

Also have gotten further in Fate Extella. On the end game boss fight for Nero. Two more routes after once I beat hers. Pretty fun man, basically built for handheld.

...but why?
It's a new 2D Mario platformer, what does it need a 15-minute Direct for?

Curious, but unenthused. Will probably just be 10 minutes of covering the formula while shilling new power-ups and then maybe 5 minutes of anything interesting if we're lucky.

Yeah, but I do want to see the power-ups and new voice this time. I don't really care if it uses the NSMB physics engine (which I suspect it to) as long as it looks neat throughout and tries to do new things.

Probably takes little work to do and works as advertising.

I mean, I guess, but a general Direct would generate more hype and adding in a Wonder segment would involve just as little work- especially if the rest ends up filled out by 3rd party stuff. Would be more interesting as a surprise, too.

Meh, I dunno. Maybe I'm just out of the loop. I've been confused by the game-specific directs since New Horizons was doing them. The only understandable ones were the Pokémon ones (since that's more of a multimedia franchise as opposed to just vidya), as well as the Direct Minis and Partner Showcases (even if the latter seemed more questionable).

They don't want to hype or shill post-Christmas games until after Christmas. Much better to get people to buy now rather than save for March. The exception, from what I've seen, is games that ended up being announced for fall but then delayed, like Animal Crossing.
 
Maybe they have some other Mario related information to tack onto the end. I'd like to see more of that Princess Peach game.
 
The new voice for Mario is Seth MacFarlane

No voice actor reveal, color me surprised. Part of my reasoning was "surely they can't find 15 minutes worth of things in the actual game to talk about", but holy shit, Wonder looks great. The power ups, the badges, the level design, the variety of characters, all of which effectively provide good difficulty scaling options. The online also looks like a lot of fun; even if it's not "true multiplayer", you can still do things that affect other people in real time, and that's much more appealing to me than what NSMB did if I had to pick one or the other. And you still have things like online races.

Overall, I've gone from "looking forward to it" to "hyped".
The story is still barebones but whatever
