Is it, though? I mean, it IS Direct season, even if that means it'll come out next month. We tend to get two to three presentations around this time with Pokemon and Indies coming first, so as annoying as it's going to get, the hype is somewhat warranted. Sorry if that was a little wordy.
It’s not just Nintendo, every online community is starting to rev up hype and speculation about the year. That’s pretty natural given that 2023 has begun in earnest now and the holidays are over; doesn’t seem unusual at all to me. I think Nintendo Directs just get the bulk of the coverage and attention because they’re the most prominent and most popular way these presentations tend to happen.

I mean, I’m on aboard the S.S. January/Team January, but at best we’re looking at the end of Jan, and more realistically we are looking at the first or second week of Feb.
 
Irrelevant to the thread, but I kinda like that you can't "Yeah" your own posts like on social media. It's probably insignificant, but it's nice that users can't fellate themselves.
It'd be incredibly weird for someone to do, but I guess a member could quote their own post, and give themselves a pat on the back that way.

Agreed, I think it depends on when the next Pokemon Presents happens. Though Gen 9 was revealed a few weeks after last year's Direct, so who knows.
 
don't expect anything for tomorrow, we're getting a special video from Pokémon company and I don't think that Nintendo want to overlap
 
Yeah, I do suppose that's true, Aurc. Well said.

Can’t wait for PAX East, it’ll be the first time that I’ll be able to go to a gaming convention (hopefully Nintendo is in the lineup).
 
I realize I've been posting a lot in the past few hours. I don't want people to think I'm coin farming, but I just can't help it. 😭
You don't have to worry about appearing to overdo posting as long as I'm around. 👍

I've been thinking last week of January since the beginning. Figured the week after Fire Emblem would be a good time to have a Direct that fills out the first half of the year and also has a reminder like "hey, this Fire Emblem game just game out, we hope you're enjoying it!" and that sort of thing.

I mean I'm most likely wrong, but still.

Thank you, Sonic.

Not that I think Nintendo's doing anything tomorrow either, but TCPi aren't actually announcing anything, are they?

Pokemon-wise, would love for this year to be DLC for Scarlet & Violet, and 2024 to kick off with another Legends game.
I think that were definitely getting SV DLC, this year. Though I'm expecting (and dreading) Gen 5 remakes next year, with the new Legends game after.

I don't get why anyone ever expected anything before Fire Emblem tbh. I get that discussion is fun but this was never a realistic possibility.

At most I could see the next NSO game being revealed within the next week or so - seems about time for that I believe. Been looking forward to Pokemon Stadium 1 & 2 for a while now so I would love it to be one of those. Beating those games with rentals is such a fun challenge.

Team February stays winning.

I wish I could Yeah! my own posts

I have the kind of idiotic sense of humor where I think the height of comedy would be posting some asinine, unfunny bullshit, then immediately Yeah!ing it

For me the current release schedule of Pokemon games isn't really sustainable unless Gamefreak gets some major help. Trying to cram in new mainline games + DLC + legends games every 3 years seems like way too much; not to mention all the side stuff Pokemon does on top of that. I really don't want there to be another Pokemon game that ships in the state of S/V honestly.

He's just like me fr! 😭
 
Everyone wants leaks for the big AAA IPs, meanwhile I just want someone at Syn Sophia to assure me that Style Savvy Switch isn't a beautiful illusion

The franchise is in this weird state of flux, right now with the anime taking longer than usual to finish, the studio behind the anime loosing staff, other game studios coming to work on remakes, and the mainline games getting more and more ambitious while being under crunch. It feels like something is going to give at this point.

So this year E3 is organized by the same folks behind PAX, Star Wars Celebration and New York Comic Con. Pretty big events.

The question is, will Nintendo continue to play ball? Or is the ESA taking a step back gonna be reason enough for them to stop going entirely?

I think Nintendo is usually involved with PAX, so fingers crossed.

Also I'm gonna go ahead and say I think the Direct will also be soon after FE launches, they will probably use the opportunity to promote the DLC again.
 
What do you guys think will be in the Direct outside of already announced stuff? I'm personally expecting Astral Chain 2 and PRAYING for a Kid Icarus Uprising port.
Full English releases of Buddy Mission Bond
An announcement of the Splatoon 2 DLC that is all about Pearl and Marina's Wedding
A 3D reboot of The Mysterious Murasame Castle directed by Suda51
A fully dubbed version of F-Zero: GP Legend

This are some of the predictions I know for a fact is coming.

in my heart

It's kinda crazy how Buddy Mission Bond hasn't been released overseas.

Also GP Legend wasn't fully dubbed?
 
THERE WAS ANOTHER SEASON?!?!
There were 51 total episodes, but 4Kids only aired 15 episodes and those are the only dubbed ones.

EDIT: I should be clearer. There are 51 total episodes of the F-Zero Anime but technically that was considered one season. There was a second season planned but it was cancelled on account of poor view numbers and sales.
 
Nice page
No one acknowledged your post number was #3,420

But I saw it. I want you to know I see you and the magic you do, Mr_No_U
I realize I've been posting a lot in the past few hours. I don't want people to think I'm coin farming, but I just can't help it. 😭
Funny enough you probably would have gotten more Famicoins if your quad post was one mega post haha

Is tomorrow the last day of the week that am announcement could be dropped?
Possibly, but at this rate it's not gonna be bigger than an NSO N64 update, more likely the NSO Game Trial for North America/Europe as Japan just has Snipperclips announced as the game demo

LMAOOO At least they didn't mess up Kirby.
