Makes sense. Ignore the simple explanation of Cloud Save support and leap to some sort of co-op mode. I guess if the reverse were to happen, there would be panic of no Cloud Save support or something.

Previous brochures did not use the Switch Online logo for games that supported cloud save. TotK is listed as a single player game, so if the advertisement is true, at most the online functionality could be some item retrieval system like Legends Arceus or messages in bottles like Wind Waker HD. No co-op.
 
You heard it here first, the next 2D Zelda will come out this fall, it will be a re skinned Tunic where a small link in a blue robe will be played, it will add a bonus B&W dungeon inspired by mechanics from TotK and will be 60$.

Tbh I think the possibilities are 50/50:

I could see them doing the usual 2nd week of February Nintendo Direct

I could also see them doing a Mini in January (and then a Zelda TOTK focused Direct in March or April)

tbh I’m like 98% confident it’s one of those
 
Officially voted for Team February, but realistically I think it's gotta be Jan 25/26, Feb 1/2, or Feb 8/9. Definitely feels like one of the latter two is more likely.

The late winter/spring discourse if Nintendo keeps Tears of the Kingdom details locked down until the absolute last-minute marketing blitz...

If they are ending Direct for a 4th time with ToTK that's would truly be "oh, didn't saw that coming" but I think this time it will be 2D Mario by EPD10 or one of the two projects from EPD8. Zelda will be the last but one title.

I could see them doing an e3 2018 where half the direct is general and the other half is a deep dive into TotK.

2D Mario opener
Zelda in the middle with confirmation of a dedicated Direct in March
Doshin the Giant HD with life-sized Doshin amiibo announcement to close
 
I think Zelda would be the second to last thing. You keep it near the end so people stay the whole time but then when people think that it's the finale, you drop a one more thing announcement.
 
Doug Bowser has forgot the password to the NoA Twitter account d’oh, no Directs until he can reset it (he has also lost the password to his email address)

I just saw Digital Foundry’s video on Fire Emblem Engage and it look pretty good, especially for a Fire Emblem.
Really liking the art direction and visuals in general despite not being a TRPG fan at all.
 
Just give me Metroid Prime Remaster, I've waited way too long for this.
Also, the recent release of Crisis Core Reunion gives me hope, that one day I would see the announcement of Dissidia Duodecim HD in one of the future Directs.

With that logic, every game except Pokémon and Splatoon 2 would have the NSO logo on its marketing. Whatever it is, it's not about cloud saves.

Are they really gonna wait another month for a TotK trailer?
Click to expand...
We're all anxious and we know nothing about the game, but we do know its release date, and we didn't for BotW until 1.5 month before release.
I think there will be a trailer in February but it wouldn't be unheard of if they waited even more than that.
