Evening Reading - June 18, 2024

Published , by TJ Denzer

Welcome, Shackers! We’re past the midway point of June, slipping into the back end of summer gaming reveals and goodness for this month! We’re still chugging along with our own plethora of content, and plenty more exciting things are on the way. We’ll have plenty to reveal soon, but until then, it’s time to draw the curtain on another day of posting. That means a new Evening Reading filled to the brim with today’s Nintendo Direct news and reactions!


In case you missed it at Shacknews…


And now… More stuff from The Internet!!!

There was news today

It's only been about 7 years since Metroid Prime 4 was announced in the first place. Just one(?) more year.


Gonna take you for a ride

Wild to see the Vs. Capcom games finally back in action.


More Donkey Kong remasters?... Okay.

DK’s actually had a pretty quiet Switch era for new content. Hopefully he gets some all-new love on the next console.


It’s HER time to shine!!!

Go get ‘em, Zelda! Link’ll be fine.


Echo powers sure do look strong

Hopefully Zelda practices safe firearm etiquette.


Or we can give her a CMD

That’s Cucco of Mass Destruction. Lord help us if these monsters can be echoed.


Press A to save the boy

Those who have finished Tears of the Kingdom… If you know, you know.


Not all good news this week

Hollow Knight: Silksong holdouts remain down bad.


Star Fox fans are in the same boat

No barrel rolls for this generation of Nintendo.


Alan Wake visits your island… WYD?

Probably make him leave ASAP based on his history with fictional worlds and small islands.


A writ for your Erdtree release day

I don’t know if your boss accepts Tarnished sick notes… but they should.


That covers your Evening Reading for this evening, but thank you for stopping by! We appreciate your support, and if you’d like to help out further, there’s always Shacknews Mercury, where you can help out Shacknews for as little as a dollar a month. Don’t have a dollar? Don’t need one to enjoy Bubbletron. It’s a free browser game from Shacknews where you can assemble your next trillion-dollar idea from a daily-rotating array of prompts. Can you get the highest valuation possible for the day and earn the money hat?

Good music, good drinks, and some shiny lights in the darkness? Yes, yes, and yes.
