hoping for any updates on the 235 games on my steam wishlist
Probably not, but you might have another 50 to add to it lol
Omg same 😭😭😭
@@cosmicthing2 ive already gone up to 240 without the direct
try 512 man
Haha, omg, how I feel this! Good one!
It's crazy how I'll watch a nintendo direct and get excited about 1 or 2 games, meanwhile I'm not even done with this video and i've already added 16 games to my wishlist. There's some real quality gems here.
UPDATE: I finished the showcase. I added 46 games to my Steam wishlist, and then plus the 3 games that aren't on steam. This is crazy.
A Direct by Nintendo features a wide range of games for every type of gamer, basically, this is specific to wholesome games, so it's not at all surprising that you'll find a large amount that fits your taste if you're into these types of games.
Love that this category of games has it's own direct, tons of interesting titles in this showcase.
my steam wishlist is about to multiply
SAME 😂
You folks continue to be the best curators of indie games. I truly wish that everyone in the industry cared as much about unique, quality games as much as all of you do. Thanks for everything, and I look forward to 2025! 😊
Whoever made the time stamps is a real one ❤
Thank you for having me Wholesome Games!! Was an honored to be a part of the coziest direct of the year 💙
Payton you slayed!! Love to see you here! 💜
The PCRF addition is a wonderful thing! Truthfully thankful for this beautiful community
For sure! Happy to see it
This was my first time watching a Wholesome Direct and _man,_ there were WAY more cool and interesting games here than in any of the other presentations today. I am going to have a bunch to add to my wishlist.
now this is the real direct
nah
Crazy how I look forward more to this than E3 or anything summer games fest. Really Hope a lot of these games come to switch
This is part of SGF.
E3 isn't a thing anymore. But yeah, presentations like this or Day of the Devs are generally more interesting to me than the main event.
Yeah honestly I sit through Summer Game Fest just to get to Day of the Devs because that presentation feels more fun and informative
@@NuiYabuko You don't like AAA games with massive open worlds about depressed white men punching each other in the face and committing war crimes? Or remakes? /s
Absolutely love the way this is put together, highlighting the amazing developers, content creators I love so much, and such fun new games!!
I've been waiting for Tiny Bookshop since last year! Can't wait to try it!
I’m sad I missed the live chat. It is always the most chill and d welcoming compared to the other directs.
aww was really hoping to see Sarah Sunstone and Letz Play K here. My go-to’s for wholesome stuff their content is like a hug. 💕 thanks for the show!
Thank you Wholesome Games for another enjoyable show this year! ❤ I've definitely noted down a few titles that caught my eye.
Also, do my ears deceive me or is that a new version of "Picnic Princess" I'm hearing during the montage? Please never stop using that track; it's so catchy and sends just the right kind of vibes you want for a showcase like this! 🎸🤗
It is! Stijn Van Wakeren is unstoppable.
This was the best showcase of them all!! Kudos to another banger! 🎉
Rooster looks so so amazing! Definitely wishlisting on Steam.
Just got the mat! I'm so excited!
10 hours late, but finally getting to watch the direct! Cant wait for the good vibes
i'm extra excited about broken lens, catto's post office, discounty, fantastic haven, fruitbus, letter bunny, lost and found co, magical bakery, rooster, sally, tiny book shop, tukoni, undusted, and while waiting! :D
I LOVE WHOLESOME DIRECT!
Honestly this is my favorite part of the SGF season. Haven't even watched the show yet and I already have a shirt pre-ordered. That's now a tradition. Love it.
Can't wait to add some more games to my steam game list that I'm not gonna play
Funny cause it’s true
SO EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
All I can say is... LITTLELANDS!
My highlights this year were:
Ete, Rooster, Ila, Tracks of Thought, and Fruitbus!
Not a ton of social sims this year it seems. But always happy to try something more experimental!
What a great direct! I'm looking forward to Petit Island, Squeakross, Critter Cafe, Moonstone Island, Travelers rest, Magical Bakery, Dragon Shelter, Letter Bunny and Caravan Sandwich! So many cute games! I can't wait!☺️🥰💘💘💕💕💕💕
Lots of exciting games shown off this year, great work!!!
Garden Witch Life and Fields of Mistria are 2 magical cozy indie games with demos to check out! Highly recommend for everyone here who loves wholesome game vibes.
I’m excited for some new cosy games being announced and released tomorrow
8 Demos downloaded and 13 new games added to my wishlist
Thank you so much of adding time stamps! I need to fill my wishlist.
Always the most looked forward to showcase each year
Wow every game was so unique and cute! I added a few to my wishlist
Wholesome direct partnering with the PCRF gives me immense joy
Sooo many adorable games were announced! I really enjoyed all the demos as well. Pretty much wishlisted everything haha.
I was so happy to see Gab again on this ❤ can't wait to play all the new games 😍
So excited to play some of the games announced!!
I probably just added half of these to my wishlist, they look awesome!!
squeakross looks EXACTLY like my kind of game!!
that was just amazing!! I got REALLY hyped for the story update for travellers rest! but there were so many beautiful and cute gems in here that made it to my wishlist
Thank you wholesome games for another fantastic show. Your going to make my bank account cry i need every single game 😅. Also so happy to see my bestie cozy queen eeowna of binland being part of this event. Over the moon for her as I know how much this means to her being a cozy streamer. I was watching with her and the rest of us binlandians and we all went nuts in the chat when she appeared it was such a joyous moment to share together. I screamed omg there she is bestie woooooo hooooo go iona you got this. So pleased for her and hope to see her feature again 🎉
That was amazing! I wish listed half the games and installed the demos. Now I have to find the time to play them😂
Afterlove EP? Yes, make me feel feelings!
AAAAA CAN'T WAIT FOR THE USAGI SHIMA ANNOUNCEMENT
Im helping fund spilled and im happy to see it here
This was the real E3 ! So many good games that its hard to even Remember or count!
More TUKONI!
Yeah it was only in the montage and doesn't come out until next year, but still...
More TUKONI!
Thanks so much for this! I didn't know this aired, so had to fid out via Reddit! Haha! SO many badass games I'm excited for! ;A; Really hope a lot of these come to Switch, too!
Garden of the Sea is one of my fave VR games! I hope this means more content will come
Littlelands has such Harvest Moon 64 meets Golden Sun aesthetic vibes and I am here for it!
Wholesome. More like, hold some of my money! (fr tho nice games)
I'm super happy with all the new cozy creators I got to learn about in this direct! Super awesome to see!
On Your Tail makes me want to watch awesome 90s toons like Chip n Dale and Rescue Rangers ❤
Well done! This was really pleasant to watch. 👍💚
Wasn't expecting a Tinylands 2, I loved that game
Man, spilled looks so good, like a 3d snes game
It's that time of the year again, where I get to make a long list of all the games I'd like to play but won't get the time to play for another 5 years. Woohoo!
New to The Wholesome Direct excited to see I haven't missed this year
Gonna add a few of these to my wishlist!
And next year, I hope my game Matt's Hidden Cats makes it into this showcase.
Yaaaay it's the most cozy time of the year! ✨️
thanks for having us !! hope people enjoy meeting the flirty buildings
Thank you for the hard work on this! I always love watching these 🥰 My stream wishlist does too lol
Joshs Gaming Garden is my favorite!
OMG. SO MANY GAMES.
Suffering while waiting to get 300+ wishlisted games to come out as i add umpteen more to that same list 😂❤
At this point I have to quit my job to have time for all the games I wanna play
It was nice to have a Wholesome Direct that was not mostly farming simulators
🥰I'm so happy and excited⭐⭐!!!
IM SO HYPED YESSS
Me toooo! 🥳
I'm curious about Screen Bound, it has an out of the box proposal
my expectations: Fruitbus release date and Button City Soccer Days news
So many great games to wishlist and look forward to!
Love the idea of a whole wholesome direct I'm so excited there are games that I love being showcased. You would have to scour the internet to try to find games lilt this ❤ discounty looks great 👍 I'll be looking out for a lot of these hopefully many come to switch so I can play on my downtime at work 😊 crab God also looks super cute as a cancer I think I might need to play 😅
i wanted to buy a shirt but the sizing wasn't very inclusive :( the 3x was the largest size and the sizing measurements are really more like a 1x - i hope a different manufacturer is used in the future so i can support (or at least stock the 4x and 5x sizes that the manufacturer has on their size chart)
Do you mean the Yetee? I'm seeing 5x on the preorder site for both shirts?
Y'ALL GOTTA CHECK OUT THE LOST&FOUND CO DEMO omg this game is amazing I don't want to wait haha
So many good games but nothing got me excited like the Travellers Rest update. It might just be my favorite cozy game and it's not even done yet! If you love management sims, highly recommend!
That was great as always! will echo the sentiment some of these games are starting to stack and slip their release dates. Understandable given the nature of indie development and will allow for me to catchup on my backlog.
👏👏👏Very excited for this today. Take my $!
Cozy Direct
IONA & COZY K!!!!!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
That was awesome. Gonna need one of those lil frog plushies that was on the table in one shot. He looked so zen ❤
One of your best shows, guys! I love that there are so many great indies games coming!
Thank you so much for showcasing Dawnfolk. ♥🔥

ILA A Frosty Gllide just like Nights Into Dreams from SEGA Saturn
Pine 🌲 looks good

I personally love cute little baking games like Freshly Frosted and Lemon Cake. I hope we see some games like that in this direct. AND PLS GOD GIVE US MORE COZY GAMES FOR THE PLAYSTATION PLS. 😭🙏
Aww, no Freeride demo in the US. Sadge
Hoping for something GOOD and soon like this month would be nice lol
Outside of Monster hunter Wilds, the indie showcase is the only thing I care about. 🎉
fields of mistria🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I wrote down way too many of those games... how do I find time to play them all 😂
Yaaaaasss Traveller rest!
Littlelands is like AC meets LA HD meets Pokemon sprinkled with some HM. It's looks cute.
I found some games that looked interesting to me, there was just so much that I don't remember all of them right now. ^^;
This was my most favourite showcase, so many banger games. Can't wait for the Littlelands demo
I like the Crabby game
Freeride!!
i really just want romance in traveller's rest
hikari is the way
