5 pm est for all you east coasters
Please add gb/gbc/gba on NSO 🤞
AHHHHH so excited for my ultimate disappointment
Nintendo Direct rumor deniers in shambles rn
ITS TIME
All aboard the hype train!
YAYYY, I thought it was coming next week!
I hope to see something new that I actually want to play. 40 minutes is always a nice, juicy presentation.
Deeper look into TotK is the most obvious thing I’d put my money on. I think an actual trailer for Pikmin and an Advanced Wars release date are quite likely as well. After that, who knows? Hoping to see some type of entry into the Metroid or Mario series. Wouldn’t mind the long rumored Zelda ports but I doubt that happens right now.
Hell yeah. It’s my day off too.
39 1/2 Minutes of Farming Sims with just enough time to show a quick teaser of Zelda crying as she’s revealed to not be playable.
NEW PIKMIN 4 TRAILER
NEW TEARS OF THE KINGDOM TRAILER
#LITERALLY SHOW ANYTHING FOR PRIME 4
Mischief Makers NSO shadow drop anyone?
Because it says “mostly” focused on games, expect a little segment where Miyamoto talks about the movie or the theme parks.
Time for my trimestral dose of unrealistic expectations
I’m expecting a booster course pass teaser for release next month, something Splatoon 3 related and another Mario sports game that’s somehow worse than the last one.
It would be cool to see:
TotK news
Prime 4
GameCube Remasters
New Switch hardware
Special Edition Zelda console/controller/amiibo
New Switch Sports sport
Some more classic games for N64 NSO
Any of these would be awesome.
Lol finally. God I love Nintendo directs
Please Tomodachi Life on Switch 🤞
Switch exclusive Half-Life 3 confirmed!!!
Maybe I am the only one but I would love a new 2D Mario game.
Pikmin 5 will be announced
Kirbeh please
My expectations are low.
All i want in more in-depth look for Tears of the Kingdom, a new DLC wave for Fire Emblem Engage and Mario + Rabbids: Sparks of Hope 1st wave of DLC.
Nothing else really needed for me for the 1st half of the year.
Hollow Knight: Silksong would be a major win for me but since it was last time in a Microsoft event I really doubt it we will see in at a Direct.
OK, let’s have some fun.
Some (relatively) safe predictions
– Mario sports game for June (let’s say baseball)
– Zelda gets either a prolonged segment or they announce a Zelda direct within this direct
– Multiple Square Enix games will be shown (fingers crossed for DQ3make)
– Probably multiple Disney games (likely something Star Wars and something else)
– Banda-Namco remastering/remaking a game from the PS1/PS2 era (my guess, We Love Katamari)
– Advance Wars release date + pre-orders
– At least a release window for Pikmin 4
– a segment showing the leaked mode for Kirby RtDL Deluxe
– updates on DLC for various titles (Splatoon, Xenoblade, Mario Kart, Fire Emblem, Mario Rabbids)
Some more optimistic big swing hopes/guesses
– what the fuck is the 3D Mario team up to?
– Nintendo will say or show the words “Metroid Prime”
– That ‘3d action game’ that Nintendo contracted Bandai-Namco to remaster
– Feels like Grezzo’s about due for another game
– Siiiilksong?
– ok look, if fucking Advance Wars can come back then I’ll never say F-Zero is *completely* off the table
I’m manifesting Golden Sun Remake as I do every time ଘ(人ᵕ∀ᵕ)
F-ZERO LET’S GOOOO!! You read it here first, folks
EDIT: Well.. kinda..?
My thoughts
Zelda realistic expectation is more of tears of the kingdom, my unrealistic expectation is Zelda Wind Waker.
Probably a push on Square enix games out this month
Harry Potter Legacy port update
Kirby news
And hopefully advanced war 2 is released following the direct.
**Golden Sun Remake** you cowards!
“mostly” Let the speculation meter go out of control
Everyone got their makeup and red noses ready?
I’m from the future and this Direct was good. Reggie himself popped out and said that he’s back at the company, but he has to go because he’s gotta get back to playing Animal Crossing: New Leaf on his Nintendo 3DS.
I hope there is a new rhythm heaven game!
I like it when they announce directs the day before. And we can avoid lengthy nonsense speculation based on guesses from leakers and supposed “insiders” trying to get clout.
“Zelda TotK has been delayed. Thank you for understanding.”
What I want to happen:
– Some word on Advance Wars Reboot Camp (Happened)
– Some word on a Donkey Kong game
– More Kirby Stuff (Happened, sorta)
– ***A NEW PANEL DE PON GAME*** (… they better put Pokemon Puzzle Challenge on the GBC)
– GB/A NSO (THANKFULLY happened)
– More Fire Emblem Engage DLC (Happened)
What will most probably happen:
– Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster coverage for people who didn’t know it was coming for the Switch. (Didn’t happen)
– Tears of the Kingdom Coverage (it’ll probably be the “middle featured game”, happened, unfortunately, it was the closer)
– More N64 Game announcements (maybe OG Smash Bros or something idk. Hopefully we get Mischief Makers)
– Some word on Return to Dreamland Deluxe (possibly a hidden Magolor mode, happened)
– >!Farming Sims!< (thankfully didn’t happen)
– Nothing on Metroid Prime 4, therefore nothing on a new Donkey Kong game. (Happened)
I’m hoping for at least 35 minutes of farming simulators
