Its been a little bit of a slow year on the Switch for me, but some of the rumored stuff has my interest.
HE’S BAAAAACK

Waddle Doo is not a waddle Dee.
I heard that the September Direct is in fact just an unboxing video of Miyamoto's new lawnmower.

Probably Tuesday before TGSSo we're into "not on the 1st, but could be next week still, but probably the week of the 12th?" territory, then? Not too surprising, although I really wonder when they'll do it the week of the 12th if so. Tuesday for more space pre-TGS? Or will they just do Wednesday and say screw it, reveals are happening down to the wire, good luck third parties?
Hmmm. When would they release?Extremely sure that WWHD and TPHD are there.
(Love your shirt, Mike)
Followed by Miyamoto mowing the grass so he can finally chase the last few hidden Pikmins for Pikmin 4.I heard that the September Direct is in fact just an unboxing video of Miyamoto's new lawnmower.

7's an odd one. Great courses all around, easy to go back to, but the additions feel more flashy than impactful. Gliders are a minor upgrade for what would otherwise be cannon segments, underwater segments feel too minor to be worth assessing. Assembling vehicles is at least inoffensive without a huge amount of options, and coins are a mildly interesting returning mechanic.If I’m being honest, Mario Kart has played mostly the same since MK Wii.
Beginning of October or December, imo.Hmmm. When would they release?
Oh yeahThreads dead. Famiboards staff about to drop another Mini Partner Direct rumor on Discord to drive up panic and clicks.
He made it clear that it's just a guess. F-Zero fans will continue to suffer.HE THINKS IT'S TIME FOR F-ZERO
WITHIN THE NEXT YEAR
it's just a guess but
F-ZERO WITHIN A YEAR
get your eyes checked grampsHe made it clear that it's just a guess. F-Zero fans will continue to suffer.
I think they're just guessing. Kid Icarus is 100% happening, but I'd be shocked if it's anytime soon.Uhhh... did they just imply they've heard of a Kid Icarus port?
Jeezealou HB, that’s darkFinally. We'll get our first glimpse of the new gimmick for Pikmin 4.
Those Bandai Namco hiring calls were so obviously for Kid Icarus, but I don't think it's coming for the next year or so.Yeah, a lot of the previous stuff sounded like speculation, but they sounded a lot more confident with Kid Icarus.
Not gonna sound the alarm, because Grubb has dealt with people putting words in his mouth a lot, but that’s very much worth keeping an eye on.
I would be very surprised if we didn't get both an exclusive RE and a new console exclusive Monster Hunter on the Switch lifespan (cross gen ofc).Yep to all of this. I may be completely off the mark here, but if I had to bet, I'd say that Capcom is going to be the one third party developer to be all in on the Switch successor day 1. In 2017 and 2018, everyone was dunking on Capcom for misreading the Switch's sales potential, with even mainstream media asking them different variations of the question "So you messed this one up big time. Why did that happen and how are you going to fix it?"
I doubt they want a repeat of that one.
OMG ND TOMORROW
(no)
It’s a prequel. Baby Icarus.Adult Icarus
Nintendo’s shown that they’re willing to release stuff in December. I could easily see Metroid slotting into the first week there.It's just weird that Zelda ports are coming soon. Like early October? Then when does Prime HD come out if that's also this year? Is it gonna go up against Bayonetta or Pokemon or is it going to slide in like a week before Pokemon? Surely they wouldn't miss Black Friday/Cyber Monday shopping.
Obviously you can flip what comes first; Metroid or the Zelda ports lol.
