Crazy not-so-serious theory: Bowser's Fury was an experiment to get them 3D Mario experience and they're the ones behind the next 3D Mario for Switch.
They could well be providing development assistance on the next 3D Mario. A 2023 release date might have been planned as early as 2018; especially if Nintendo already had a 2022 to 2023 target in mind for the Drake hardware.
 
I still maintain that, even with the lack of E3 also being a reason, that a big reason we didn’t have a June direct is because they weren’t ready to show BotW2.

Just the fact that they’re having a general increases my hope a lot for it
 
I always wonder how the new hardware (assuming it's out within a year) plays a role in what is she isn't announced yet. They definitely need to save some reveals for when they announce that.

I personally don’t expect, perhaps foolishly, any new game to be announced unless it releases before the Drake. No, I will not elaborate. (unless someone asks me to but not before I’m home)
 
Just learned that I've dodged covid again after being exposed for the 4th time this summer lol. So mentally I'm good to go for the crazy week we're about to have haha. I don't know how I've dodged covid since the beginning but I'll count my blessings.
You and covid be like:

This could very have played a significant part in it. Personally hoping it's as different to BotW as MM was to OOT.

I've thought the same, and no E3 gave them a good reason to hold off. On that note, I really don't think we'll have a General now and them NOT show BOTW2, it's just way too expected at this point.

They said the game is out this Spring as in, within the next nine months, no way this game's marketing cycle kicks off less than 6 months before launch. The ONLY way we don't see it next week is if they're planning a dedicated event for it in the coming weeks (although even then they should announce it during the show just to calm people's worries). Even if it gets delayed, I feel like they HAVE to show something, you can't go from, "standalone video for delay announcement" to "Nintendo Direct mentions a delay" with no new info on the game since 2021!
 
Yesterday ended up being a pretty rough birthday for me, as my mom ended up having an infection of the mastoid bone and had to quickly go to the ER to have antibiotics administered directly instead of waiting for a prescription, in addition to discovering that she has diabetes after they did bloodwork. Her doctor said that specific infection can be very serious if not treated promptly.

She was admitted overnight last night and is also staying tonight as we wait for updates, so definitely my worst birthday. Hoping for Nintendo to stay the course with the direct so I have a distraction next week.
I wish your mom the best; I also had a mastoid infection years ago, unfortunately I had to have surgery in my case which affected my sense of taste.
Suck it, hypers of the past (who had their entire thread in like 11 days but shhhhh)
To be fair we're not limited to one thread now, we have a whole forum to ourselves this time.
Btw I don't wanna keep digging into community lore to a point where it alienates those of us who haven't been around for years, but

Considering the way the officially named Direct Speculation Threads ended at Era, I'm very, very happy to see @Raccoon not only bring them back but also see the page record shattered while he's OP.

Proud of you, dude. 👏👏👏
He also didn't have to run himself ragged with games and raffles. Just a simple thread where we can all dream, hype, and shitpost to our hearts content.

I'll go even crazier: Bowser's Fury was an experiment to get them acclimated with 3D platforming experience, as a whole. Because THEY are the ones actually bringing DK to the modern age with his own 3D platformer!

The main EAD team, of course, is hard at work with Mario.

its metroid prime hunters 2 and everyone who says other is delusional because i cant do no wrong

Let that come out after MP4, and be the start of its own spin-off hero shooter brand, and I think we'd be onto something...
 
Thread does feel like it's slowed down slightly. Is it because of the reassurance or is it because Splatoon 3? Or los dos?
There's a Disney/Marvel games showcase happening right now, might have something to do with it.

Splatoon 3 is my god damn GOTY. Wooow.

I don't even care about a September Direct anymore.

Ok the last part is a lie. But it makes the wait easier.

Give more Mario characters spinoffs. Captain Toad is great and deserves a sequel. Make another go at a Peach game, without the emotion stuff. Give Bowser his own game where you have to take over the Mushroom Kingdom. I'd take any of these over another meh sports game for sure.
 
Even though there's no title, that Captain America/Black Panther game sounds badass. Really hope that turns out well, can't wait to see it in action.
 
Nintendo should, like, do a full BotW 2 blowout, then still not reveal the title til it's leaked by a retailer by listing the game too early by accident.

I would love a 3D Yoshi's Island from EPD Tokyo
