I thought it was a really great stream in terms of production (though I don't know what was up during the translation of Suda-51's segment, maybe he went off-script). Slightly confusing on pricing and release dates - especially Europe (i.e. I'm in the UK) whom is completely unknown to me.
I'm extremely excited. Zelda looks fantastic. I'm shocked at how quickly they have announced a new Xenoblade game and I am stoked to play it (best gaming news I've heard in months). I liked Hyrule Warriors (especially as a Zelda fan-service game) so the Fire Emblem Warriors game will probably light the same itch. Interested in the Shin Megami Tensei game teased, and a bunch of the smaller third party games. New Mario looks like a horror I can get behind. The WiiU is my favourite console since the PS2 - just in terms of the consistent quality of the games on the system - despite owning less than a dozen games for it. For the Switch, just Zelda and future Xenoblade as two truly great games is enough to get me on board at release (especially since I have a gaming PC, and now a PS4 Pro for Uni, to satiate any third parties who avoid Nintendo).
The games that didn't appear made sense to me (most notable, Pokemon, which you wouldn't want to cannibalise Pokemon Sun/Moon sales/community now for preparation for Switch port in future). And it was significantly more engaging than E3 conferences, or the last few Nintendo Directs.
