I wish I could play the Minish Cap on Switch !Gameboy games maybe September 2023 at earliest.
GBA probably not for a while.

Are we expecting GB/GBA games this time?
GCN looks like a fever dream. Maybe in Switch 2
Honestly I think we need to stop getting angry at games journalists before anything's actually happened. Right now we're throwing hypothetical games at some hypothetical games journalist, asking the hypothetical question "do you think this is a major game," and then assuming the hypothetical answer of "no."Are we going to see articles of the caliber of "another damn Donkey Kong game" again? Even if.. you know, it's been so long since the last game, and this hypothetical game has the potential to be just as big as a new Mario game?
Because I will say.. I'm pretty tired...

You have 7 months to fill up after TotK.
One of them will be Detective Pikachu 2.
Two of them could be Prime 1 Remake (if Prime 4 is late 2024 or sooner) and Pikmin 4 (if it isn't delayed to 2024)
Then you can probably fill in the other four with various outsourced titles and the big DLCs for Pokemon and Xenoblade
Nintendo had months where Torna and Pokemon Sword/Shield DLC were the big releases of this month so this all seems plausible.
But would still expect a 2D Mario as well.
Also, I hope for the "transfer Pak" things to be true since we're getting pokémon Stadium this time! Maaaaaybe some reveal on the Pokémon Presents later in this month?If what Nate said is true about the GB/GBC player being ready for a couple of years now, I have to imagine that we will get those games this year. I don't think Nintendo wants to go two years without adding another system to the plan. GBA is a toss up, but I think that is an expansion pack add on a year or so after GB/GBC.
Gamecube is a Switch 2 thing at best.
But I just met you thoI don't wanna flex but I called you maybe
Might wanna get that checked out by a qualified medical professionalI can’t flex
Not only that but don't we know that the team who worked on 2D Mario games is working on something. We know that both the Mario teams have been hiring for games since 2020, no?IMO, 2D Mario makes the most sense this year because of the movie and the fact that we currently don't have any Mario games announced for this year. There's always at least two Mario games in any given year (if not more). What current options do we have? 3D Mario is probably being saved for the next system, Mario Kart is still getting DLC, it's too early for another Paper Mario or Mario Party, and Strikers/Golf/Tennis already have games on Switch. 2D Mario and another game (Baseball?) make the most sense.
Oh you sweet child lol. Gonna be upset when ndcube announces Animal Crossing Festival 2 instead.Let's say that Zelda is the last major game of this year (10+m seller) and Switch 2 is Spring 2024. The rest of the lineup could look something like this.
June- Mario Sports (Please be baseball), Splatoon 3 DLC
July- Pokémon S/V DLC, Pikmin 4
August- F-Zero GX HD
September- Star Fox, GB/GBC NSO library
October- Metroid Prime 1 HD
November- Mario Party Superstars 2 (let me believe), Pokémon S/V DLC
December- Advance Wars: Reboot Camp
Ok, so Mario Party is probably close to 10m, but this would all be really solid for the second half.

It's all a bunch of hypotheticals and it's really not worth being tired about it tbh.
Why u madI'm not angry about it.
I was replying to CyberWolf with that bit, but OK I've taken the quote outI'm not angry about it.

I always thought that knowledge was one of the bigger reasons behind 2D Mario speculation(along with the movie), but I could be misremembering the info we have lol.

Given how often I see the pack-in amiibo sitting on shelves, I can't imagine the original Amiibo Festival did well.Oh you sweet child lol. Gonna be upset when ndcube announces Animal Crossing Festival 2 instead.

I forgot Octopath 2 is this month.
I don’t know if I should wait for a price drop. It’s not exclusive so I think it might drop faster. But I also do want to play it. I’ll probably be done with fire emblem by then as well.
Decision decisions.
I gave up and bought a bunch of GB/GBC games on the 3ds recently so when this gets announced, you're all welcome for my sacrifice.
wait for our lives to be over~I don’t wanna
You lucky bastard.I would get it for launch, but I already have enough JRPGs on the docket, plus the Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster pre-order.
I will definitely get Octo 2 at some point this year.
wait for our lives to be over~
miss a thing~
be your fool, but it ain't no lie, baby bye bye bye
BYE BYE
I checked this btw, don't have an exact timestamp and don't know the words used verbatim but I think he said something along the lines of "Everything I've heard points to the week of the 6th, somewhere late in that week"Apologies if this has been posted already but I was listening to Jeff Grubb on last of the Nintendogs and he mentioned that he had heard of a possible Direct next week. By no means is this confirmation but he had heard rumblings of suggestions pointing to late next week.
Oh it didn't but people do have those cards. Those cards were hunted down during the height of New Horizons. Some of those cards were being sold for extreme prices on ebay too lmao.Given how often I see the pack-in amiibo sitting on shelves, I can't imagine the original Amiibo Festival did well.
But I think there is actually potential for a game like that to be cool, it mainly got roasted because the Wii U didn't get a mainline Animal Crossing and that's what people wanted lol.
My current thinking is that NSO is going to get GB games, while Expansion Pack members will get GBA and also PC-Engine/TurboGrafx16 games. That said, new NSO console additions have historically always happened in September and I don’t think they’re gonna change that.Are we expecting GB/GBA games this time?

Kat usually is on this, so might get some more insight on this.
Next week seems pretty reasonable, all things considered.I checked this btw, don't have an exact timestamp and don't know the words used verbatim but I think he said something along the lines of "Everything I've heard points to the week of the 6th, somewhere late in that week"
Whew would love the Pokemon GB game ports to be freed from the 3DS!Are we expecting GB/GBA games this time?

Still holding out but will buy the rest of that stuff the end of this month. Have lost of the GBA games already (thanks ambassador status) but might get some particularly hard to justify the physical price DS games. Plus my 3DS DLC/games. Gonna be an expensive monthI bought a GBA and DS game on the Wii-U the other night. We share the burden.
Fuck you Nintendo I'm having a hot chocolateNintendiets is EPD 9's new IP
Fuck you Nintendo I'm having a hot chocolate
Like seriously, even last time. I had to represent you.I’m gonna have to pick up my posting now that we’re ONE WEEK away from the Nintendo direct.
I do think we'll see all the Gameboys added at the same time. The only way I don't see GBA happening with the other Gameboys is if GBA is coming at the same time as the GC and Nintendo makes a big deal about the two apps being able to link together. I could see that being a selling point of why NSO on Switch 2 is even better and worth $50 per year since Nintendo will probably drop the $20 tierIf what Nate said is true about the GB/GBC player being ready for a couple of years now, I have to imagine that we will get those games this year. I don't think Nintendo wants to go two years without adding another system to the plan. GBA is a toss up, but I think that is an expansion pack add on a year or so after GB/GBC.

You did an honorable job.Like seriously, even last time. I had to represent you.
I can understand the thought in some peoples mind a 2D DK isn’t a major release, but sheet that’s a huge release for me.
We’re going to see Ganondorf talk next week.
Let's not forget, if the rumours are true, Baten Kaitos remaster/remake will be this year.I’ll be honest, if all I got was the following games this year, I’d be ecstatic:
And that seems very reasonable if not likely. Nintendo will have some title of significance to anchor the holiday this year and it won’t be an Ultra Smash type game given the size of the install base.
- Tears of the Kingdom
- Pikmin 4
- 2D Mario or DK (holiday title)
- Metroid Prime Remastered
- F-Zero GX Remastered
Tears of the Kingdom is delayed to 2024 and replaced with Ganontalk, a new Zelda spin off where you play as Ganondorf and interview characters on his late night chat show.We’re going to see Ganondorf talk next week.
