Since Nintendo doesn't respect patterns anymore, I am going with January here.
And Silksong is going to be in it. I believe.
Or we get Spaceworld in 4 days, which has all those things .There's also the possibility that we get Metroid this month, a Partner Showcase in February, and a Zelda Direct in between. Kinda a chaotic neutral option.
If Metroid is showing up at whatever they have next then it's not a partner.the more I think about the more unnerving I find the prospect of a partner showcase in Q1
this is usually Nintendo's time. even if they're winding things down a general mini, or even a mega mini like March 2020, shouldn't be too much to expect.
Direct from the Makuhari Messe convention centre 21 years late and with almost no warning, it's Shoshinkai - Nintendo Space World 2023!Or we get Spaceworld in 4 days, which has all those things .
It's your favorite child, returning after a long time away to crash in your spare bedroomOh my god the best thread is back
If this one is anything like the last one I don't think I can handle it
Damn that's accreateIt's your favorite child, returning after a long time away to crash in your spare bedroom
Normally yes, but most of the first party lineup is locked in until June. The only game we really need info for is Zelda, and I could see that getting its own Direct pretty soon.the more I think about the more unnerving I find the prospect of a partner showcase in Q1

my dear boy, if there's anything the past few years have taught us it's that direct strategy has nothing to do with what's actually coming, it's all about conveying the state of the brandNormally yes, but most of the first party lineup is locked in until June. The only game we really need info for is Zelda, and I could see that getting its own Direct pretty soon.
Why are we thinking a Pokemon Direct will be in January? February seems a lot more likely to me. I doubt they announce DLC until S/V is decently patched up.Scenario 1: normal Nintendo

Because the only P I care about is PIKMIN
SAY IT LOUD SAY IT PROUD
PIKMIN
How about if they announce a sequel to Pokemon Legends: Arceus? Launching in June.I don't want to even imagine the backlash if Game Freak announces DLC before Scarlet and Violet are patched. It would make the dex cut backlash look tame in comparison.
....I'll allow itHow about if they announce a sequel to Pokemon Legends: Arceus? Launching in June.
PIKMIN PRESENTS
JANUARY 10, 2023
PIKMIN 4 CONFIRMED FOR APRIL 7, 2023
PIKMIN PRESENTSI think you're crazy.
Also, the Mario movie releases on April 7th, so I don't think Nintendo would want to launch a Pikmin game on that day lol.
PIKMIN PRESENTS
JANUARY 4, 2023
PIKMIN 4 CONFIRMED FOR MARCH 24, 2023
Actually I had prepared a long story on how team February will win but I ditched that since we all know it's going to happen. Team January go home.
Nonsense.How about if they announce a sequel to Pokemon Legends: Arceus? Launching in June.
We've got our February game people.Nonsense.
It won't take that long to come out.
those games are SMALL POTATOES next to a BIG MONEY game like PIKMIN 3.99€Bayonetta Origin releases on March 17th, and Resident Evil 4 Remake releases on the 24th.
Do you want Pikmin 4 to fail?
Pikmin 4k. You gotta keep the faith.those games are SMALL POTATOES next to a BIG MONEY game like PIKMIN 3.99€
those games are SMALL POTATOES next to a BIG MONEY game like PIKMIN 3.99€
Pikmin 4 launches when Miyamoto presses the start button, whenever that may be.
Pikmin may be TINY but it's TOO BIG TO FAILPikmin 4 will fail because of you and these wishes and we will never get a new Pikmin game again...
That's right...It it will go in the same place as other Nintendo IP's that hadn't had a new game in years...Do you want that???
