Hmm, I know you love Divinity 2 So I figured this would be one you lved, and I also remember Overwatch, Obra dinn and DP2 - what were other third party reveals?


My favorite direct for third party reveals definitely the latest partner showcase, probably beats all but a few general directs for me to.
There was also a major DQXIS segment and I can't remember what else but I'm pretty sure I bought 3 games instantly after that direct.
 
I have no idea why there seems to be a sudden burst of excitement here, but I am already strapped in for the roller coaster ride.

The proper title reveal of BotW2 is hopefully imminent.

Bursts of excitement is simply a natural byproduct of that very same hopeful imminence.
 
ACTUALLY no screw this how is anyone still talking about a potential Direct when Nate "Drake" The Hate actually confirmed to us we're living in one of his testing simulations to be experimented upon for his own enjoyment?

I bet Nate's just in a white coat looking down on us from a window, dripfeeding Direct info to see the results, testing us to see if he's able to condition us into being able to snap and doompost with the uttering of a single word..

"DIRECT"
 
The May 2022 Indie World was on a wednesday, with the announcement the day before.
Okay lol I just checked and the August 2019 Indie World was announced on a Friday, airing on a Monday lmao

Nevermind what I said, Indie Worlds could appear anywhere
 
Either way, we can thank/blame Google if anything or nothing happens this week!

Sure, but I think it’s a mistake on Google Side. Still it could be this Week, but there is not that much smoke to be it this Week.
I only want Zelda News, I am not asking for too much😫

The year is 2028. It has been over 6 years since the last Nintendo Direct. The sequel to Breath of the Wild gets delayed every year in financial reports, the Switch is still selling at the top of the market in spite of there having not been a single Nintendo developed or published game since Splatoon 3. Metroid Prime HD has been rumored for over a decade now, the investors seem to be content with Prime 4 happening sometime by 2040.

It's almost midnight on December 31st, the Speculation Thread is in a frenzy as the New Year arrives.

Nintendo breaks their pattern of SILENCE. It's 2029.

General Direct, 40 minutes, shadow drops.

It's just third party games and Advance Wars 1 & 2 Reboot Camp, still no release date, launching before the end of the year.

TEAM JANUARY TECHNICALLY WINS
 
Completely unrelated, but remember when Nintendo showed off Cramorant and Pokemon Camp on that September 4th direct a while back? Crazy

Can you imagine there'll be a time in the future where we won't have to theorize, wait in anticipation for scraps of BotW2 news because the game will have come out one day??
I almost can't :OOO

Ready doing it all over for BotW 3 again?!
 
4 online service maintenance updates for 4 seperate unknown titles. Game Boy, Game Boy Color, GBA, and Gamecube (Turbografix or Game Gear if they get crazy)
 
Could be, but I think that's just Pokémon doing some fun Twitter stuff
This doesn't look like one of those "fun stuff". No pokémon has those color palettes (well maybe except for Bruxish). This i,s definitely a tease for a brand new Pokémon reveal. Maybe a regional Smeargle?

Well, at least nothing that could hold back a Direct

1st party game shown Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp is the title
1st party game shown Starfox: Avenged is the title

Someone willing to screengrab this? Of course its fake but curious what it says

It says the Direct will have Mario Odyssey 2, Zelda HD Collection (TP / WW), Metroid Prime 4, Pikmin 4 and a Star Fox game.

Basically it's not even an entertaining or somewhat compelling fake. It's just super bullshit.
 
Why that thinking? By that Time TGS is over and Fall Directs are always before TGS and that since 2016.
I think the next direct will reveal the title of the sequel to BotW. I feel like they may want to focus on splatoon these next few weeks and then come in towards the end of the month with a direct going over the rest of the year and finishing up with the BotW2 trailer. They'd likely confirm the Spring release window and confirm the release date at TGA.

The only issue I have with my theory is that I believe the Metroid remake for the holiday is real. If it's supposed to release in November or December, then announcing it at the end of the month could be cutting it a bit too close

Haven't been here the whole week end, how are you all feeling about a Direct this week ?
Anything hinting at it happening or not happening this week ?
 
Looks like NoA is silenting hard on a monday again, i hope they're not having a silent hangover tomorrow from all the silenting today.
 
This has a zero chance of happening aside from remasters, but I think it's time for Iga-san to show off that brand new Bloodstained sequel. Chances of it appearing at the next Direct should be high.
I'm really looking forward to a Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night 2, but only if the Switch version gets the proper attention from the get-go this time. The state in which the original launched was astonishing in a bad way and the fact that the publisher (505 Games) resorted to rather scummy practices to hide it until the eleventh-hour was the cherry on top.

Didn't they just announce another update with a Journey cross over? What makes you say the chances are high, I haven't kept up with Bloodstained news but I love Iga's games
 
I hope they do, because that could point to silence before a big announcement, a direct announcement possibly.

I forgot if general Directs are being announced one or two days before airing, but if it's two days then you don't want them to silent hard tomorrow if you want a Direct this week. ;D
