StarTopic Nintendo Direct Speculation |ST6| It’s Prime Time For Some More Wonderful Speculation! (Spoiler Crowd, Remain In This Thread Until The Direct Ends!)

There's certainly info about the game out there (I have a fair bit). But timing is another matter.

Please I’ll give you $50 for the info. I didn’t know info on this game was out there.

Does it sound good? Or is the info too basic to make a judgment call?

 

[rickyson33]

the process is all F-Zero now

If Metroid Prime shows tomorrow, I take purple guy as my avatar for a month. If it doesn't show, both of you take purple guy as your avatar for a month.

Beware this trickster. This bet is worded in such a way that Metroid Prime 2/3 could count, not just 4.

The wording goes in their favor, thanks for the heads up though!

Ridley is playable, aren't they?

I'd wager it has at least been in their minds for almost a decade now, given that FE15 / the FE2 remake started development in 2015. The main reason I say this is that they gave the FE2 remake the title Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia rather than just Fire Emblem: Shadows of Valentia. I cannot fathom they'd come up with a unique subtitle for Fire Emblem remakes only for them to do a single release under that branding.

While they may have initially planned for "Echoes" to be a remake subseries, I feel like at this point "Echoes" has become too associated with Shadows of Valentia specifically, even to the point that Celica is called "Emblem of Echoes" in Engage.

Honestly, I kinda think the FE4 remake is just gonna be called "Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War". It would better help Nintendo market it as a brand new game and the next "big" FE after Three Houses without attaching it to a specific subseries. Wikipedia will have (2024 video game) or something like that listed after the title lol.

As a Nintendo Shareholder, I think this game MUST take on the role of dual-gen release. The switch 2 must sell all it can as quickly as it can and Metroid prime 4 as a showpiece launch title for Switch 2 would help that objective. If it takes on this role, I'm not sure we see it until Switch 2 is ready to be revealed.

He’d be hurting himself then lol

I stand corrected then! This is very interesting.

And yeah, I suppose so. Regardless when it'll appear, it's something to look forward to after many years of development. It's all part of the process!

 

[magical kitsune]

The one thing I really wanna see (that I dont think we'll get tomorrow) is Dragon Quest 3's remake. Monsters 3 is coming out soon and I totally expect it to have the DQ spotlight until release. I'm excited for that too but I'm really starving for some DQ3r info.

Maybe Fantasian will show up, if that sketchy looking steamdb page was legit after all. And maybe this time I'll get to finish part 2 without renewing my apple arcade subscription.

 

[Dark Cloud]

I remember when Retro’s games used to be so locked tight and wouldn’t leak. Seems like things have changed and insiders are getting info on Prime 4.

[Luggage]

Must… resist… urge… to ask… Nate… for extremely… cryptic… Prime 4… info…

GAAAHHH!!! Why can’t we be blessed with this knowledge!?

 

[Dark Cloud]

what info?

Nate was just saying he has a fair bit of info on the game. Man now I want to know what he knows, especially he says he already has a fair amount of information.

 

[Djehuty]

it’s a 12 hour wait. We can wait that much.

 

[Luggage]

Purple guy. Idk

I found the source of it. Would you like to know, or would you prefer purple guy to be a mystery?

 

[chocolate_supra]

Yall I am not kidding

I went to youtube to set a notification for the Direct. Searched "Nintendo," and I swear this was the ad that was immediately on top of the page:

[Captain Falcon]

OK guys, I wanna spread some positivity here. Metroid Prime 4 remains a possibility I think, a reminder:

Nate said that Nintendo targets a release window of H1, 2024. And, that it would be the opportune time to announce it - IF - nothing has changed.

This would make sense taking an early release of the new hardware into consideration, as well as it being one of, if not THE last major Nintendo title(s) for Switch. Time is running out after all.

Honestly, if Prime 4 is a cross-gen title, I really think they save its full-on reveal for a Switch 2 showcase in January. I actually think it will feel less next-gen to consumers if it’s revealed in the final Switch-only direct. Save it for January alongside the next 3D Mario game, Mario Kart 9, Monolith Soft’s rumored action game, and a new DK title.

 

[Aurc]

Dude how did you approve my request with such immediacy? It's like you were waiting with your finger over the button

Because I didn't approve your request.

The Process did

 

[Tye]

Yall I am not kidding

I went to youtube to set a notification for the Direct. Searched "Nintendo," and I swear this was the ad that was immediately on top of the page:

Okay, but what is the ad? It’s clearly a 30 second video; does it just show Tropical Freeze, or what?

 

[Slash]

The things I would do for any Prime 4 info at this point…

 

[Malus]

Hi Malus!

Well hey there Aurc, long time no see.

Crossing my fingers for MP4 (and mayyyybe.. MP2 HD?.. pls).

But for this, i guess i have to trust the process a bit harder.

Hope you‘ll enjoy the Direct @Aurc

 

[JackSamson]

the whopper is more burgery than a mcdonald’s cheeseburger. change my mind.

Hardly a controversial opinion! The Whopper is KING! Burger King that is…

 

[Shareholder Chad]

Maybe I should make a church of the Nintendo shareholder. Only issue is, Thats the large barrier of entry.

Mystery. I really, really appreciate that.

 

[Uncle Squingis]

Please I’ll give you $50 for the info. I didn’t know info on this game was out there.

There was this "rumor" a month back, but it's nothing anyone couldn't already guess.

Metroid Prime 4 is Not Open World but Has “Massive” Areas

Here's some fake leaks to spice things up

Spoiler

 

[lemonfresh]

nate give us some scraps we are hungry over here. Anything will do

 

[GPKs3]

12 hours to go. Thankfully, I’ll be asleep for 7 of them. We’re getting close!

 

[Common Knowledge]

Yall I am not kidding

I went to youtube to set a notification for the Direct. Searched "Nintendo," and I swear this was the ad that was immediately on top of the page:

Must be a gritty reboot if it’s just called “Donkey Kong”.

 

[Shareholder Chad]

I’ll join

Hold up.

You have nintendo shares?

 

[GamerJM]

God, in almost 12 hours I'll be seeing news about some kind of new game in a series I've literally waited 20 years to hear news about. Regardless of how good this Direct will be, that's surreal.

[Dark Cloud]

Hold up.

You have nintendo shares?

You know what’s funny I was so close to buying Nintendo shares in 2015. Their share price was like $14 or something. I wanted to buy so bad, but I was having troubles getting it because I thought they’d climb back up.

 

[chocolate_supra]

Because I didn't approve your request.

The Process did

Aurc literally is the process, confirmed.

 

[lemonfresh]

imagine buying nintendo shares in the very early 80s before they blew up, whoever did that would be so rich now

 

[KingSlowpokebro]

After tomorrow it will be weird not having a direct thread to post in I just realized

People will talk about the direct's contents for a few days and then move on to talking about the next direct.

 

[Magic-Man]

Nintendo please don't make me regret getting up at 7AM tomorrow. I am not a morning person.
