Pikimin 4?Maybe we can make this a page of people recommending games to play while we wait for a Direct.
Virtually no one played Switch GOTY 2024 contender Under Night In-Birth II. It’s super good!
Also nowhere near enough love for Pepper Grinder on Fami. It’s a little short but super fun!
I don't think a lot has changed. The situation is similar to 2016, where aside from a lot of fake rumors, only a handful of substantial information leaked every few months or so.Thinking about it, it definitely feels Nintendo put down a lock on a lot of leaker sources ... outside of Pyoro.
Grubb's been happily talking about PS and MS Showcases in May and June, there's a shitload of detailed rumors of the PS5 Pro and so on.
Nintendo? Ever since the rumored delay reports hit, silence.
It ... is somewhat impressive in today's connected world. And a bit frustrating... ;]
Frustration is a important part of Nintendo‘s marketing.Thinking about it, it definitely feels Nintendo put down a lock on a lot of leaker sources ... outside of Pyoro.

So are we actually waiting for the next hours for a direct announcement? Or we already lost all hope?
No, that sounds right. Since we're trapped in this endless grey drizzle winter, game hype season can't happenSpring isn't really starting here in the UK so that's probably a sign all Directs, events, games and speculation have been cancelled. Sorry, I don't make the rules up even if I just did make this up.
Best game.Guys I'm addicted to Pikmin 2
I wonder if I can get all the treasures before the direct
In good old Ubisoft fashion, the release date for Star Wars Outlaws was leaked by Ubi Japan's YT page for the trailer that airs later today.
Releases August 30th. 3 days early access if you get one of those other shenanigan versions.
I know it's not Direct related, but hey, you wanted news.

If even something releasing on 30 August leaked, does that mean we won't see a Direct until September?
Ah, it's Ubisoft, nevermind.
yesterdayWait, when did Nintendo unpin the tweet?
Surely making room for the Direct they are about to announce.yesterday
A c/d direct is a metroid prime 2 remaster shadow drop away from being an s/a.one person's c/d tier direct is another person's s/a direct
I don’t think getting being dissapointed is unreasonable. Directs, and direct speculation have become a reliable hit of dopamine for much of this community. Like anything that causes that dopamine release, exercising, coffee, ect… not having it for a long period of time will make you want it if you have become accustom to it.oh yeah, getting upset about the lack of a direct is silly either way
I don’t think getting being dissapointed is unreasonable.
you have to admit it's a little bit unreasonableI’m like borderline addicted
different strokes for different folksyou have to admit it's a little bit unreasonable
Nintendo is going to announce a Star Fox film and it will break the internet.Didn't post a question yesterday so everyone in the path of the eclipse could enjoy it, myself included. That changes today though!
Will we see any movie news (be it live action Zelda, the Mario Bros sequel, or something else) in the next Nintendo Direct?
My guess is probably not.Didn't post a question yesterday so everyone in the path of the eclipse could enjoy it, myself included. That changes today though!
Will we see any movie news (be it live action Zelda, the Mario Bros sequel, or something else) in the next Nintendo Direct?
no, Zelda won't be very far along til Kingdom Of The Planet Of The Apes releases next month (and Hollywood are seemingly planning as if we could very well be in for another lengthy round of strikes this year from IATSE, so it's certainly not going to shoot this year), I think Mario movie stuff they wait til the 40th anniversary of Super Mario Bros. in 2025, especially given the film doesn't release til 2026 there's not really much reason to talk about it before 2025 alongside new 3D Mario/Mario Kart etc...Didn't post a question yesterday so everyone in the path of the eclipse could enjoy it, myself included. That changes today though!
Will we see any movie news (be it live action Zelda, the Mario Bros sequel, or something else) in the next Nintendo Direct?
I’m so excited for the Mario sequel. I think they need to introduce yoshi, Daisy, wario, and waluigi in this one. Rosalina should be saved for a big 3rd movie that loosely adapts Mario galaxy (and she should be voiced by Scarlett Johansson)My guess is probably not.
However, this week is Cinemacon. I suppose if Universal Studios wants to talk a bit about the Mario sequel, since Nintendo got the ball rolling with announcing its existence, maybe they'll do so tomorrow!
I'll say that would probably come in the September Direct at the earliest. I think the Zelda movie especially is a ways off.Didn't post a question yesterday so everyone in the path of the eclipse could enjoy it, myself included. That changes today though!

I...look, I did look up notable releases that year. If it weren't for New Pokemon Snap and Monster Hunter Rise, I'd fight you.my hot take is the TTYD release by itself is already better than all of 2021

My expectation is basically Yoshi, Daisy and the Koopalings (+ Junior?), and for what basically be a speedrun adaptation of SMB3 + World.I’m so excited for the Mario sequel.

Sorry, Poe's Law in full effectI thought my sarcasm was obvious
I wantNintendo is going to announce a Star Fox film and it will break the internet.
It's gotten really unpredictable, before you could pretty much count on a tweet coming around 9am Eastern time nearly every week day. Now they seem more random.I feel like Nintendo's promotion/marketing really dropped after mid March. Can't shake the feeling that they had a gaping hole in the marketing schedule after the delay (since it was rumored to be announced in March originally) and never figured out how to fill it so they're just coasting rn
