Amazing how much less excited I am for a Direct now that Smash DLC is concluded. I'm trying to think of what would actually hype me up. Pikmin 4? Maybe???

I would be excited for a new Donkey Kong in the same style as Tropical Freeze and Metroid Prime 4 would be nice to see.

I don't need to see more BotW2, I'm going to buy it anyway.
 
not sure what countdown i can use. we don't have a countdown here on fami, and the external one i used on era doesn't work when linked here. it's approximately 20 hours from now, if that helps.
I'm trying one out
Does this work right or do anything dumb

if it looks okay just copy the image url and use that
 
I'm too excited so I'm just refreshing the page non-stop. You know what, I'm going to take a run and if I spot any leaks or uncles outside I let you know.

What if games like Melee and GX are just extra expansion pass offers, like, single apps you can download with online functionality added. I’ve actually been thinking about Nintendo doing something like this with Melee since the panda series was announced, just a way to get more people to compete
Nintendo will never release an HD, online Melee out of spite. :p

We can barely even get the original on these services.
 
I still stand by DK being a Star Fox Grand Prix situation at best. The only sources we have besides Nate are:
  • Some random fansite owner
  • Zippo (LOL)
  • NintendoLife (who afaik have a nonexistent track record)
  • Grubb... who thinks Zippo is a reliable source on this

Donkey Kong going back to EPD after Retro's focusing on Metroid is common sense. The franchise is huge and desperately needs a home. The additional rumors from various sources is just cherry on the cake.

You don’t need sources or insiders to tell you Nintendo is making new games with their IP (unless it’s Star Fox or F Zero lol). But you especially don’t need any other source other than Nate to know it’s real .
 
Might need to make DIRECT PANCAKES

They're just pancakes but I eat them either before or after the Direct, but never during.
I mean, that's just normal pancakes

Unless you eat non-Direct Pancakes only during a Direct

Do they have a track record? The EPD DK thing is the first time I've heard of them

Nate is the most credible person on this, but the only other known source that backs him up unironically thinks Zippo is worth taking seriously. There's also Emily stating she hasn't heard anything about it at all

EDIT: Re-worded stuff more naturally

I can't wait for the Zeldatubers and their 45 minute analysis videos.

What's so cool about Zelda trailers is that they leave so many questions, (What's the hand, who built the sky ruins, what's the symbol on the shield, what's the time power?) I think the BotW2 trailer will answer main gameplay hook and title, but still leave a lot of mystery.

In defense of Grubb, Emily has said that Zippo seems to have reliable sources in general. I also should note is that she didn't support his claim or anything like that.

Speaking of Zelda, one day I'm going to have a sassy Pembrokeshire Corgi and I shall call her Zelda.
 
I know Nate suggested Luigi’s Mansion as just an NSO drop but I thought a HD collection of LM 1 & 2 would have been a good release before a potential 4th

I know others don’t think it’ll be there but idk, I think we at least get a glimpse at Samus’s model in Prime 4 if Prime remake is there. A super short teaser

I'm a sucker for zeldatubers. Commonwealth realm, zeltik, Nintendo black crisis. Ill watch all their 30+ min video breakdowns of a 45 second clip and be happy doing it
 
So, will we finally see the December game? Any speculation?

They've got October (Sparks of Hope, Bayo 3) and November (Pokémon S/V and possibly Prime HD) covered.
I think either Everybody 1-2 Switch or Advance Wars can fall in December. They can be 2023 tho.

completely forgot about the new FE game that was rumored about that we seen that supposed leak on...
Please Nintendo show me this game. I need more FE
 
I just got the confirmation I can be in smart work tomorrow that means I can enjoy the heck of this and even stream it

I'M SO HAPPY

I might witness a date/title drop live for Zelda for my first time ever

Could the early time of broadcasting signify any big announcements? It kinda makes sense to me
Hard to say, since we haven't had this timing for Directs in a while outside of E3

It could just be that they wanted a bigger time gap between the Direct and the start of TGS
 
Maybe it was just a shitpost! I don't wanna tag them but they're afaik in a position where they could potentially know about it if such a thing existed.
Ohhhh I see! The people I saw talking about it sounded more like speculation or sarcasm but I'd love to see that coming to fruition.
