Nintendo Direct on April 12 (3PM PT, Switch/3DS, mainly Splarms)

Splatoon has 60hr. single player mode
Arms roster revealed to have 18 character roster
Pokémon Eclispse Fall 2017
VC announced: Mother 3 and all Nintendo systems up to Wii announced.

Someone on Gaf would still be all: "That's it?!? WTH Nintendo????
 
Does anyone know the origin of this image? Was it Way Forward? I would adore a Virtual Boy Wario Land remake (or just a Virtual Boy Virtual Console)
VB VC would have been a cool thing to do when the 3DS when new and the 3DS aspect was still novel. At this point, seems like a thing they can no longer do properly outside of 3DS, and too late to be worth working out an emulator for that system if they haven't already done it.

Though Wario Land VB is a pretty cool game, and would be worth seeing reworked version.
 
- Baten Katios HD Collection.

Lol BK Collection would cause me to cry tears of joy.

stop it, just stop.

Lol @ Splarms. Friggin' hype for both and honestly I would just like to know the release dates for them. Probably some single player details for both would be excellent as well. As for new game announcements, keeping my expectations in check but any new game for 3DS or Switch would be dope. BotW DLC footage, future firmware updates, Virtual Console support would be really cool also. :)
 
I'm not expecting much because it's pre-E3 and they've already said it's mainly about Arms and Splatoon 2 (good, but no surprises there) and the 3DS (don't care).

Heck, I'm not expecting much for E3 even. Last time I checked Nintendo have only had 2 actually good E3 presentations in the past 10 years, i.e. presentations with a good amount of content and good pacing: E3 2006 (Wii blow-out) and E3 2010 (end-of-life Nintendo franchise extravaganza on Wii + big 3DS reveal with additional content online).

When Nintendo goes all-out, they crush everyone else. But most of the time you get way less than what you expect. Besides, they tend not to show much beyond the next 12 months. Best to temper your expectations, boiz.

[EDIT] What I do expect is a fair amount of details - and, in traditional Nintendo fashion, even more questions - about the online service. Both Arms and Splatoon have online multiplayer, and MK8 comes out in a couple weeks, after all.
