I don't think 16th was ruled out yet, unless I missed it. But I'm expecting the following week at this point.I don’t think we will get any Direct next week which is weird to me since it will be an empty week but i do trust Nate he always was spot on when it comes to Direct dates.
22nd is probably out, Fire Emblem Warriors reviews will drop that day.Here are the next three weeks. Crossed out days that aren't likely (Let me know if I've missed something). The 16th seems possible, maybe Neon White + TMNT are dropped right after the presentation.

My favourite direct announcement with forever be the 1-2 punch of Banjo in smash into BoTW. I had work at my campus job all the way up until the direct time. So as soon as it ended I sprinted out and found a seat on nice shades bench and watched the entire thing on my phone. It was a pretty good direct even before the end so I was already in a good mood before the finale.Alright so yesterday when vibes were low I had an idea to lift things up in in here...

I’ll pick one of the replies tomorrow (Saturday) morning and gift them an eshop game of their choosing, $20 max! Include the game you’d be hoping to grab with it in your reply to give the devs some love
My favorite announcement wasn’t so much a specific game, but a series of games. And it came during a treehouse. I have said this before, but for me, the best ever announcement was when ACA Nintendo games were announced in a Treehouse Live segment. Was Day 3 I believe. I was at home and watching on YouTube on the TV because I was working at home doing report writing. I loved it so much because they brought out Don James from NOA. There were tons of great stories about how NOA stored arcade games in a warehouse in Tukwila, the early days of Nintendo coin ops, and how they used the sctusl board of one of the few remaining cabinets of Sky Skipper that was at NOA to get the ROM to make the rerelease. Just great history and glad they could work in a long time employee into the show. No tears or snacks that I can remember.Alright so yesterday when vibes were low I had an idea to lift things up in in here...

He said no to 14th or whatever but i don’t think he will said no to some date only to find out that the Direct is just 1/2 day after. That’s not how Nate teasing things imoI don't think 16th was ruled out yet, unless I missed it. But I'm expecting the following week at this point.
Not 29th due to shareholders event.Here are the next three weeks. Crossed out days that aren't likely (Let me know if I've missed something). The 16th seems possible, maybe Neon White + TMNT are dropped right after the presentation.

You can mark off Tuesday as well since those are the days Nintendo would announce the direct on.Here are the next three weeks. Crossed out days that aren't likely (Let me know if I've missed something). The 16th seems possible, maybe Neon White + TMNT are dropped right after the presentation.

Mmh true, who was behind the leak anyway?
Ahaha savageYeah. Only scamming people with fake rumor accounts is ok!
Total joke. Waddle Dee Knows was the greatest thing ever to expose Twitter leak culture.
It was June 2017. I had only recently begun following gaming news, directs, etc even though I had been a lifelong fan of Nintendo games. I just finished my freshman year of college, returned home and had nothing to do, and was waiting for my first E3 presentation since I started following everything. Around this time I was constantly reading and sometimes participating in debates of "will there be a new Metroid game?" I read so much of "metroid doesn't sell, so no new games" and was eager for the naysayers to be proven wrong.Alright so yesterday when vibes were low I had an idea to lift things up in in here...

Humankind got rated to the Switch (also PS4/PS5) by ESRB. EDIT: oh it was already announced at SGF, nevermind lol
I believe Nate said it won't be on the 14th.wait... why is 14th not an option
tuesday is THE june date
Hmmm interesting! Let's see if more games get rated in the next few daysIn SGF only PS/Xbox versions were announced.
Theres like 0 chance we get an announcement for Mario Odyssey 2 this direct right?
I'm forgetting, have you played Tunic? I think it would be right in your wheelhouse!Happy Friday, my good sir!
Really looking forward to Nate's Microsoft predictions tomorrow -- about as much as the event itself. I was a day one adopter of the Series X and Halo Infinite had so much promise, but the content is pitiful. Forza Horizon 5 was amazing. Let's see what else they're bringing to the table through 2023
Yeah it’s 0Theres like 0 chance we get an announcement for Mario Odyssey 2 this direct right?
I really need to get back to Tunic! I played it for about an hour on game pass and was really enjoying it, but then life got in the way. I'm very slowly making my way through Earthbound now, so I think once that and Star Fox 64 are done, I'll try to beat Tunic before jumping back into XenoblaDE. Thanks for the reminder!I think there's an at least 35% chance of seeing the next 3D Mario, be it Odyssey 2 or something else.
I'm forgetting, have you played Tunic? I think it would be right in your wheelhouse!
Probably when I recorded myself reacting to the Isabelle in Smash/Animal Crossing Switch reveal 1-2 punch in the September 2018 Direct for a friend who wasn’t watching and is a big Animal Crossing fan. Having both back-to-back was a little nuts so I was sounding like a pterodactyl by the end of it. Good times.Alright so yesterday when vibes were low I had an idea to lift things up in in here...

It was Nintendo Direct in November of 2015. Back when we had November Directs lol. Iwata’s death was still lingering in everyone’s thoughts and people on the old, OLD site thought Directs were dead because they were seen as a product of Iwata, and not anyone else, except maybe Bill Trinen, Reggie, and Miyamoto. Nintendo at that year’s E3 Digital Event detailed their holiday lineup pretty extensively, some games being asset flips like Triforce Heroes, AC Happy Home Designer, and AC amiibo Festival (from the AC app on Wii U). Feedback from that Direct ranged from bad to ”ehh, it was alright”. Nintendo that fall also tweeted a gazillion times about the first Yokai Watch coming to the west, and everyone was sick of it.Alright so yesterday when vibes were low I had an idea to lift things up in in here...

My favorite memory from a Nintendo direct comes from the February 2019 direct, which was also my favorite direct of all time. I was having a particularly bad day the day of the direct and was in no mood for a direct. I considered not even watching it live, but I'm glad I did because as soon as it opened with the Mario maker 2 reveal, I was immediately cheered up and forgot about all my problems. That wasn't my favorite direct memory though. It was the final announcement of the direct. The presenter stated they had one last trailer to show. The screen went dark, then a few bubbles appeared. Then a scene of a stormy ocean came into view. As soon as I saw the waves I knew exactly what it was.Alright so yesterday when vibes were low I had an idea to lift things up in in here...

If emulated Melee counts, it's very possible, just unlikely before new hardware is announced."Melee HD" is the only announcement that there's literally zero chance of. Everything else is fair game.
Humankind got rated to the Switch (also PS4/PS5) by ESRB. EDIT: oh it was already announced at SGF, nevermind lol
I have to echo the "Banjo in Smash/BOTW 2 announcement" 1-2 punch. I've never felt more elated by a Direct. From happy, nostalgic tears to finally see the bear and bird represented in a game from the past decade to straight shock and more tears of disbelief that they were already announcing the next Zelda. And I had this visceral reaction as soon as I saw that spiraling purple goo thing in the teaser, I immediately screamed out loud "IT'S ZELDA" to nobody in any close radius nearby. And the dark tone and eerie teaser served as a compelling tonal comp to Majora's Mask at the time, which only made it even sweeter.Alright so yesterday when vibes were low I had an idea to lift things up in in here...

The thing is, they're not gonna do a Direct one day before Three Hopes releases because that's too close, and the day before that there's Three Hopes reviews, so that's also out. They'd have to announce it one week in advance (oncoming week) or on Monday to air on Tuesday.So now am betting 22/23rd. I know Fire Emblem is releasing that week but the next one is just too close to shareholders meeting.
It’s not. September Direct last year was in 23rd so it’s normalLast two weeks of the month then. This is a narrow enough window I feel better. I wonder if that's strange?
Reading this, yeah it makes sense. If there is no Treehouse then Monday announcement for Tuesday show is completely possible.The thing is, they're not gonna do a Direct one day before Three Hopes releases because that's too close, and the day before that there's Three Hopes reviews, so that's also out.

theres a reason people like directs, they enjoy them, and you asked =PDamn y'all are killing it with these memory posts. Excited to catch up on them and write my own later
RE: your edit, ditto + exactly why I asked!theres a reason people like directs, they enjoy them, and you asked =P
Edit: one aspect that i also really enjoy about them is always to see how others react. now thats the third place where im reading along with peoples reactions to directs. People are excited, hyped. I like when people are happy =D (even if the show is not for me, like it was a lot of the time)
