Not equally disappointing, mind, but disappointing nonetheless.
- 1:05 – Nintendo’s first Direct of the year didn’t do it for me. The presentation was fine, there just wasn’t many games I was interested in.
- 39:55 – The Book of Boba Fett didn’t do it for me. Mainly because the structure doesn’t work and the storytelling is bad. There are some cool bits though!
