Nintendo Treehouse Live E3 2017 Day 1: Rabbids and Warriors

By LUDWIG VON KOOPA - Two games we really love to hate, Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle and Fire Emblem Warriors!

Just for some background, this is about how grossed we were when Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle was leaked/sort of announced prior to E3 Weeks 2017, and this is our latest thoughts on Fire Emblem Warriors (not a series homage). Negative all around.

Still, it's good that not everything on Nintendo's Treehouse Live E3 2017 is a blockbuster, 'cause we have other logs we needed to publish. We fully admit we were diverted in our attention, but hey, we still DID react.

(1:51:25 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: is the song back

(1:51:31 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: YES

(1:51:32 PM) (breezinabout@msn.com) YAAAAY

(1:51:36 PM) (rawkhawk2010) People like us who have done nothing but bitch about Mario for the past two gens LOVE IT

(1:52:28 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: dude you need this on YT

(1:52:35 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: so then it gets views

(1:52:39 PM) (rawkhawk2010) I know

(1:52:42 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: 'cause you know people are searching for this

(1:52:46 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: shit Rabbids

(1:53:04 PM) (rawkhawk2010) If it's already up

(1:53:05 PM) (rawkhawk2010) anyway

(1:53:08 PM) (rawkhawk2010) I'll just steal theirs

(1:53:20 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: Rabbids

(1:54:04 PM) (breezinabout@msn.com) "Mario doesn't know anything about the Rabbids"

(1:54:15 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: Neither do I.

(1:54:30 PM) (breezinabout@msn.com) Does he know the guys following him... aren't really Peach and his brother?

(1:54:30 PM) (breezinabout@msn.com) Like, is he aware?

(1:54:34 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: Grant Kirkhope

(1:55:00 PM) (breezinabout@msn.com) GEYSER GOOMBA

The thing we ended up caring the most about was this here Goomba.

(1:55:47 PM) (breezinabout@msn.com) Named BEEP-0

(1:55:55 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: The little shit is BEEP-0

(1:55:58 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: not the Goomba

(1:56:07 PM) (breezinabout@msn.com) Oh. <.<

(1:56:08 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: The hockey puck controlling them.

(1:56:30 PM) (rawkhawk2010) this music is just like viva pinata's

(1:56:33 PM) (rawkhawk2010) the garden music

(1:56:39 PM) (rawkhawk2010) which i guess is what this basically is

(1:58:11 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: I can't pay attention to this.

(1:59:13 PM) (rawkhawk2010) what pic should I use if i upload this them,e

(1:59:24 PM) (rawkhawk2010) anything specifically?

(1:59:31 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: Petey Piranha tentacles

(1:59:40 PM) (rawkhawk2010) for odyssey?

(1:59:44 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: oh

(1:59:45 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: uh

(1:59:46 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: hm

(1:59:51 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: I dunno

(1:59:56 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: http://www.koopatv.org/2017/06/nintendo-treehouse-live-2017-metroid-samus-returns.html

(1:59:58 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: I pub'd that

(2:00:31 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: In terms of the story

(2:00:36 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: The Rabbids aren't dying

(2:00:42 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: but they're teleported back to the world.

(2:00:50 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: The Rabbids are controlled by a force.

(2:01:15 PM) (rawkhawk2010) ...does this look fun to y'all?

(2:01:23 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: no

(2:01:27 PM) (rawkhawk2010) agreed

(2:01:35 PM) (rawkhawk2010) i'm not buying this, lol

(2:01:42 PM) (rawkhawk2010) i was only gonna get it cuz it was weird

(2:01:43 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: But it's hard for turn-based strategy games to look fun watching someone play it.

(2:02:47 PM) (rawkhawk2010) this actually sounds like grant kirkhope at his best

(2:03:24 PM) (rawkhawk2010) i would hate for there to be a soundtrack as obnoxious as the rabbids themselves

(2:03:32 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: lol

(2:03:35 PM) (rawkhawk2010) which i would have expected if not for him being part of the leak

(2:05:01 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: The more you wait the more enemies spawn

(2:05:15 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: so I guess waiting is bad

(2:05:25 PM) (breezinabout@msn.com) Is Bowser playable in this?

(2:05:29 PM) (breezinabout@msn.com) Or anyone interesting?

(2:05:37 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: There aren't any Koopas in Rabbids so far.

(2:05:44 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: And hopefully there never will be.

(2:09:05 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: Peach's Castle.

(2:09:12 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: Not destroyed by Rabbids.

(2:09:56 PM) (rawkhawk2010) ew

(2:10:01 PM) (rawkhawk2010) nsmb red coins

(2:10:29 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: Museum collectibles.

(2:10:37 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: Washing Time Machine.

(2:12:26 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: You can collect SOUNDTRACKS

(2:12:41 PM) (breezinabout@msn.com) "Ziggies Battle"

(2:15:09 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: Fire Emblem Warriors next

(2:15:14 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: so that can join this log with Rabbids

(2:15:18 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: 'cause we don't care about either!

(2:15:27 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: I only took one screenshot, of Geyser Goomba.

(2:15:28 PM) (rawkhawk2010) okay

(2:15:31 PM) (rawkhawk2010) I downloaded the trailer

(2:15:42 PM) (rawkhawk2010) and mass-screen-capped in VLC media player

(2:15:45 PM) (breezinabout@msn.com) From that team select screen, looks like the playable characters are Mario, Luigi, Peach, Yoshi, and their Rabbid equivalents.

(2:15:46 PM) (rawkhawk2010) so i don't have to crop

(2:15:51 PM) (rawkhawk2010) so I can give you those later

(2:16:08 PM) (rawkhawk2010) and upload You Can Be Like Odyssey with a bunch of screens as slideshow

(2:16:37 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: Yeah, those 8.

(2:17:16 PM) (rawkhawk2010) the theme playing right now is much improved from that one in january

(2:17:18 PM) (rawkhawk2010) i think

(2:17:23 PM) (rawkhawk2010) sounds more refined

(2:17:26 PM) (rawkhawk2010) less MIDI

(2:18:52 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: wot's playing now

(2:19:19 PM) (rawkhawk2010) more mario?

(2:19:23 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: I like it.

(2:19:29 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: But I dunno if it's from Odyssey.

(2:20:49 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: Wot if this is just generic music

(2:20:52 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: and not actually from a game?

(2:20:55 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: HI EVERYBODY WE'RE BACK

(2:21:01 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: Matt Audrey and

(2:21:05 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: Mr. Hiyashi from Koei

(2:21:08 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: and Owen translating.

(2:21:11 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: Fire Emblem Warriors.

(2:21:26 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: "I wanna warn you, it's a very chaotic game. Audrey won't be talking while she plays."

(2:21:45 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: Yup it's the same as Hyrule Warriors but with FE dudes.

(2:21:51 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: And the enemies are generic soldiers.

(2:22:01 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: (generic humans)

(2:22:07 PM) (rawkhawk2010) lol

(2:22:08 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: 'cause that's who the enemies are in Fire Emblem games.

(2:22:16 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: Instead of Stalfos or wotever.

(2:22:21 PM) (rawkhawk2010) Awakening menu sounds.

(2:22:46 PM) (rawkhawk2010) well

(2:22:50 PM) (rawkhawk2010) this is warriors alright

(2:23:25 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: Marth

All of the characters were talking in Japanese with English sub-titles.
Marth has this intro wherever he is.

(2:23:36 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: waot wtf

(2:23:40 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: was he talking in Japanese

(2:25:04 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: "Matthew just switched to Chrom, which is always a good decision! Hahaha." - Audrey

(2:25:12 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: OKAY AUDREY YOU'RE DEMOTED FROM TREEHOUSE WAIFU

(2:25:20 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: "Chrom defeated Marth!"

(2:25:22 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: ugh

(2:25:35 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: "Allied Commander is in trouble!" Well that's boring.

(2:25:42 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: Who cares about a dude named "Allied Commander"?

(2:26:51 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: "Strategic elements of Fire Emblem"

(2:27:05 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: There's Pairing Up and Weapon Triangle

(2:27:05 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: but

(2:27:21 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: I doubt you'll need to care about the Weapons Triangle

(2:27:32 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: especially when the enemies all die in a hit anyway.

(2:31:13 PM) (rawkhawk2010) this sucks >.>

(2:31:41 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: ya

(2:33:15 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: horse

(2:34:15 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: "THANK YOU FOR PLAYING!"

(2:34:17 PM) (breezinabout@msn.com) "He's a showboat, he's a grandstander."

(2:34:18 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: Jump into

(2:34:19 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: new mode

(2:34:21 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: dammit

(2:35:19 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: Colosseum mode.

(2:35:25 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: Inspired by the Arenas.

(2:35:31 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: You fight heroes 1 on 1.

(2:35:49 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: (but you need to kill random soldiers too)

(2:35:55 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: "It's much more one vs. one focused"

We're impressed by how focused this is on one vs. one action.

(2:36:39 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: They keep showing Marth to get killed.

(2:37:16 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: "More husbands for Audrey!"

"Yay, just what I need!" - Audrey

(2:38:00 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: They're making a big deal about all of the lines being fully voiced.

(2:38:02 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: Who cares? <_<

(2:38:28 PM) (rawkhawk2010) chrom

(2:39:05 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: Chrom

(2:39:09 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: The actual dude

(2:39:15 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: He's talking in Japanese.

(2:39:22 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: "It's husband vs. husband"

(2:39:24 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: AUDREY YIKES

(2:39:28 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: CHROM IS YOUR HUSBANDO?

(2:39:29 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: EWW

(2:39:58 PM) (rawkhawk2010) poor chrom

“Uh-oh. Looks like I didn't think this one through...”
Typical words of an idiot traitor.

(2:40:22 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: Audrey thinks Xander and Chrom will star in a buddy comedy.

(2:40:25 PM) (rawkhawk2010) chrom in a buddy cop movie?

(2:40:30 PM) (rawkhawk2010) sounds absolutely awful

(2:40:30 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: Chrom can't be in a comedy!

(2:42:34 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: Chrom gone

(2:42:55 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: yay

Chrom got ousted from NSider2!

(2:43:07 PM) (rawkhawk2010) ROFL

(2:43:21 PM) (rawkhawk2010) Nintendo's stock started plummeting when they started showing Fire Emblem Warriors

(2:43:23 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: LOL

(2:43:39 PM) (rawkhawk2010) I screencapped

(2:43:52 PM) (rawkhawk2010) Hasn't this been going on for like 20 minutes?

(2:44:03 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: We'll see in the Schedule afterwards.

(2:45:12 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: Ryoma apparently hates leaves and nature.

(2:45:25 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: "I'm not Matthew's boss, but I'm acting like it. GO. KILL. THINGS." - Audrey

(2:45:31 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: Where's Reggie? The beach?

(2:45:48 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: "This game makes me feel like a bad person, but in the best of ways~" - Audrey

(2:45:52 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: WELL YEAH YOU LIKE CHROM

(2:45:58 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: BAD PERSON

(2:46:15 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: "We only have a few minutes, but we must make Ryoma suffer~" - Audrey

(2:47:20 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: "We have a little something special"

(2:47:22 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: More amiibo.

(2:47:33 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: Fire Emblem amiibo

(2:47:34 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: CHROM AMIIBO

(2:47:36 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: And Tiki

Well, this is a set of amiibo introduced that I'm NOT interested in.

(2:47:38 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

(2:47:38 PM) (rawkhawk2010) ick

(2:47:59 PM) (breezinabout@msn.com) "I'm just gonna hold him a little!"

(2:48:00 PM) (breezinabout@msn.com) lol

(2:48:20 PM) Ludwig Von Koopa: "Do you have any words you'd like to say to our audience?" "HI!"

Next up is... Xenoblade Chronicles 2! Stay tuned to KoopaTV for continuing coverage, of course.


The game before this was Metroid: Samus Returns!
While Xenoblade Chronicles 2 isn't terribly important, they also announced Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions which is very important.
