These fools explicitly said "no mention of successor." I love how they reiterate that. Makes me think the successor will have it's own direct or something

Where's my Star Fox anime?
 
I'm conflicted on one hand I want a bunch of brand new games. At this points I'm tired of ports, remakes, and remasters. At the same time, really want as many recourses going towards Switch 2. Best case for me is brand new 2d Zelda this year for Switch.

So much Zelda with the potential to be shown. Not only new 2D, but also likelihood of WWHD and TPHD, or perhaps a Cadence of Hyrule-style spinoff.

We're getting Zelda, and I'm stoked out of my socks about it.

Dream is of course an original 2D Zelda, but I think an even bigger dream would be for TPHD to get the Prime Remastered treatment.

it’s nuts this is probably the last direct that focuses entirely on the switch. sometime in the relatively near future all things considered, we’re going to get something on the successor.
 
i don't mind if this direct is mid or bad. At this point i want the best for the successor.
BUT.... i don't mind if they announce FE4 remake 👀

yooo, Here we goooo!

I have no expectations for the rest of the year!
Yet, I find it pretty cool that they let us know there'll be no info on the Successor, as it comes from the NoA account and other Nintendo accounts.

Its mostly to keep expectations in check.

Even with this message, you will see posts online asking “But what about the Switch successor” because people don’t reaaaaaad

I am going to cry and scream and perish and reincarnate and perish again if and when we have another year of Capcom filling the empty void where a N E W Ace Attorney game should be.
 
Just think, this time tomorrow it'll all be over and we'll be moaning how mid this Direct was*

*Except for Metroid Prime2, 3, 4, WW HD, TP HD and Donkey Kong
 
Prime 4. I believe.

And I'm also ready to be let down

At bare minimum, we're getting Dragon Quest HD-2D, and that'll be pretty hype

Sadly, this has a timed platform exclusivity on Playstation consoles:
maybe it was a timed-exclusivity window on the announcement, not the release
 
maybe it was a timed-exclusivity window on the announcement, not the release
That would be weird as that announcement came from devs themselves, not on State of Play or anything.

First game also had PS exclusivity period so that wouldn't be surprising. But I don't think Switch will wait too long with that rating already made.
 
It's good to go into this with low expectations. No pressure, just mild curiosity with the hope to be pleasantly surprised 👍
 
You know what?

Fuck it.

My one and only prediction is going to be Ace Attorney 7. I don't care how utterly this prediction fails, I am willing it into appearing.
 
Who’s excited for the direct for some games reveals.

And who’s more excited cause next general direct is potentially the switch 2 presentation lol
 
As usual with Nintendo Directs, I expect nothing, except that they somehow still manage me to disappoint me, even as I'm expecting nothing.

But I'm hopeful about Fire Emblem Genealogy for August and Donkey Kong 3D for October and then maybe another HD remake (Zelda or MP2 and 3, probably not XCX but one can hope) for Christmas. That or Silksong. That would exceed my expectations.

I don't trust the process. If we see MP4 it will be as a 25 title, wink wink nudge nudge.
 
there is also a thread for people who don't want spoilers. don't know what this thread is for then, or why there's three ongoing threads at the same time.
I thought whenever a Direct is announced the speculation thread closes and the official event thread opens. This is the event thread, so it makes sense, but I dunno why the others aren't closed.
 
no spoilers please lol , there is a thread for that

The notion of spoilers for some videogame ads is unconventional to say the least, so if that's something that bothers you, you should probably limit yourself to the no spoiler thread.
 
You know what?

Fuck it.

You have my sword. And my sadness if Capcom lets us down.

We can go through this song and dance again come TGS
