a new 2d mario that's not an nsmb title? that's hype af honestly.
my hopes:
more info on fashion dreamer (curious to see how nintendo responds now that the marvelous showcase happened and clarified officially)
a comment/bit on pretty princess magical garden island which is literally releasing the day after the direct
some other new girly/femme game would be nice, though I know nintendo is kinda shying away form that
I'd like to see a 2d zelda too.
Style Savvy Switch when, Nintendo?
have you not heard? style savvy was murdered by nintendo. Syn Sophia, the developers of style savvy, wanted to make a 5th game and got shut down hard by nintendo. They then did a complete ip rebrand and struggled to find a publisher, at which point marvelous stepped in. It's called Fashion Dreamer and is planned to be a continued fashion series by syn sophia. It's basically style savvy, in all but official ip/branding. Same dev, same goal (fashion game), etc.
Given Nintendo's hard rejection, Style Savvy is dead for the foreseeable future. And if Fashion Dreamer does well (which it should if all style savvy fans buy it which they should if they like style savvy), Nintendo might realize it's good to have style savvy and revive; but if that happens I sincerely doubt syn sophia will return to develop them.
tl;dr: style savvy is dead, and nintendo murdered it. a revival might happen if Fashion Dreamer (marvelous/syn sophia game) does well, but if it does revive, it almost certainly won't be syn sophia developing it again, so not really the same.
Buy Fashion Dreamer if you like Style Savvy
Oh no, I hadn't heard! Definitely putting Fashion Dreamer on my list, then! We need more "girl games" that devs have actually put effort into.
