I expect a healthy amount of Japanese 3rd party Switch announcements.

 

[kc44135]

I can exclusively confirm you will get more information and footage on Super Mario Odyssey.

Spoiler

It's in the OP/tweet

I commented before reading all the way through the OP. Really bad habit, I know.

Animal crossing mobile is supposed to come out in 2017. And to connect to some AC game on gaming systems. Only 3 months and a half left, so my guess is they will reveal it alongside the new mainline game.

 

[FreedomFighter]

Oh yeah. Just set my calendar reminder.

Japanese page confirmed that there will be no mobile info on this Direct.

 

[TwilightPrincess]

Please have Xenoblade 2 release date, Please have Xenoblade 2 release date, Please have Xenoblade 2 release date...............

plus a better trailer. I will buy it day one, but Nintendo needs to convince more people of Takahashis masterpieces.

If they reveal Animal Crossing Switch I will hit the ceiling.

 

[Neoxon]

I can't see the gif.

This. I think we're about to get more third party Japanese announcements than western in this Direct.

They've already stated that there will be no talk of mobile games. I'm almost 100% willing to bet that AC mobile is delayed in favor of something like Zelda for this year. It just fits better in the "Spring" slot they somewhat established when they launched FE Heroes this year.

 

[efyu_lemonardo]

But I have a job

HAHAHAHA

You'll sell your kidney and lung to pay for games like the rest if us!

They've already said there will be no mobile announcements during this direct

But also Apple's iPhone X announcement is tomorrow, so...

 

[nekomix]

45 minutes and 50 for Japan? Yep, 1 ticket for hype train please 😁

 

[perfectchaos007]

Pokemon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon HYPE

Spoiler

Probably in a separate direct tbh

 

[Dark Cloud]

Japanese page confirmed that there will be no mobile info on this Direct.

That's because they're saving it for the Apple Conference tomorrow 🙂

 

[backflip10019]

99% of people who bought Splatoon 2 bought it for the online experience. The argument that online games don't work on the Switch because you can take it with you doesn't make any sense.

It does make sense because knowing how Nintendo operates, I am confident there is a clause in Nintendo's cert process that requires that the game works both online and offline because of the portability of the system.

Yeah this is what I'm hoping for. Apple Keynote is tomorrow as well.

 

[Thoraxes]

PLEASE have a Monster Hunter XX localization announcement.

Fuck, that would be my megaton.

 

[Youth Crew]

Animal Crossing please.

 

[Immaculate]

apparently someone on /v/ leaked the direct date/details of the event yesterday. Skimmed the thread and didnt see anyone mention it. Looks hella disappointing

Why couldn't it have been Zak and Wiki 2? 😟

 

[Egida]

That is a long Direct, I am officially hyped.
Expecting Xeno 2 date and some custom Mario Odyssey pro controller.

I would love a peek of the new Fire Emblem, as a way of enticing people to buy FE Warriors.

And of course new info on The Champion's Ballad.

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

Well, are you going to share what was posted?

This sure is a helpful post without a link or summary.

 

[efyu_lemonardo]

With Mario coming in October Nintendo must have another big holiday title. Right?

 

[Gaardus]

I just need Pokemon USUM info. The game is out in two months and I still know basically nothing about it.

 

[Garcia el Gringo]

Super Mario Odyssey Switch Bundle, please.

 

[Dark Cloud]

What was it?

Because /v/ has such an amazing track record for this sort of thing.

/v/ got one of the directs right and someone there leaked the January switch conference

I wouldn't take a 4chan rumor at face value but also could you please post it?

Again, there is an MMO confirmed for release, and soon too. I don't believe it has any offline content.

 

[DecoReturns]

Where are the fake leaks?

I need a good laugh

Day. 1.

 

[kc44135]

Also, I really hope there isn't too much time spent on 3DS here. I mean, seriously, it's time to start pushing Switch %100. I know they'll have to show a bit of Metroid, but other than that, I really want the focus to be on Switch.

yesyes i know thats a different gov

 

[NinjaCoachZ]

Mario is that big holiday title. Even though it launches before Black Friday it's still going to get the main push for then. I think if they have anything else for the year it'll be a remaster or a smaller title. I think we've seen the whole picture for their AAA lineup.

 

[Mark1]

What rumours are people taking about? Link?

 

[Maintenance]

Yeah Splatoon 2 also only sold because of the single player campaign, nobody cares about the online multiplayer in that game.
Same as Rocket League, never will be a thing on Switch.

You can play both offline.

 

[Bakkus]

Does anyone think there will be new announcements here bigger than downloadable eShop games? Because i'm a bit skeptical. Seems like this Direct will only serve the purpose of driving up hype for the holiday.

 

[Instro]

That's a long direct. I imagine they'll be showing off stuff outside of software as well. Also the timing on these always sucks for me, 3pm on a Wednesday?

 

[Finale Fireworker]

sorry lol



/v/ got one of the directs right and someone there leaked the January switch conference[/QUOTE]

There's no Pokemon in this list. There's nothing Ultra about this at all.

 

[jph139]

I keep thinking of Odyssey as a Holiday title but, damn, it's just a month and a half away! So this is their last real chance to spotlight it, unless they do a dedicated direct closer to release. Should get some good details either way.

 

[hotcyder]

I need more mario in my veins, so that's fine by me

 

[Maintenance]

4chan has a better record than gaf.

What are they going to talk about on the direct for so long then?

 

[backflip10019]

Well that would be disappointing.

 

[sinonobu]

They got it right back then since the guy was working on setting up the booth.

 

[WhiteWaterM00se]

THat would be somewhat disappointing if true. Hooray for Fallout though.

What I really want even more than games is Nintendo to address online and voice chat. Anyone think they could do this?
