I don't get why people think Nintendo would spend time on Metroid: Samus Returns when it's coming out in a few days and is unlikely to have dlc. There's not really anything left to show.
 
My reasonable expectations :
- Starts with an image of partners ..."you are asking what is left, so please take a look"
Dark Souls 1+2 reveal. Comes with all DLC, Link costume to be found and Ridley as a bonus boss battle.
- Our folks at Capcom also wants to talk.
Black screen. SHORYUKEN is heard. Focus on ryu's face. He is cell shading. Zoom out to reveal he is SD. Suddenly he receives a shoryuken from Mario !
Pocket Fighter logo is revealed. It is a 4x4 party fighter with Mario as a Guest Star. Megaman, Felicia and Monster Hunter character are also seen in the trailer.
-Okami 2
-But it is not all from capcom ...
fade to black, we see some weird sprites. We see the logo Battle Circuit on the screen. "for the first time on consoles, exclusive to Virtual Console Arcade" There is a Lucas tease when this message appears on screen.
-It is time for enemies to become friends.
SEGA Forever Trailer next to Virtual Console trailer.
PS4 streaming trailer for switch
- Cloud appears, not only confirming FF7 remake for switch but Smash 5 with Tetrimino, Arms dude, Splatoon kids and Hanafuda as bonus characters and all the wiiu+3ds modes.
-Mario Kart 8 Deluxe DLC. MK8 is now free for those who bought it digitally on wiiu.
-Microsoft Announces Xplosion Man + Ms Xplosion man for switch because they don't have portables so who cares
- Talk about the sales of SNES and NES classic. Announcement of digital and physical versions of SNES Classic games and NES Classic games as a pack. 20 for NES and 35 for SNES games
- Nintendo announces a new update where WiiU pro controller and Wiimotes become compatible with the Switch

The 3DS announcement is that they are killing the 3ds

I've gone back on US/UM because they timing matches up. I don't know if they'll show Kirby Switch as the 3DS title is supposed to be releasing soon. They may hold it back until a direct in the winter. Also, Yoshi seems further along than Kirby since they showed a playable demo for it during the E3 treehouse.

Very realistic expectations. Of course there will be more games than these, but the main games they will show can be resume to this.
 
I wouldn't mind Nintendo bringing over Twilight Princess HD and Wind Waker HD. I want all them Zeldas in one place.]

Buy a Wii U, I'm reasonably sure like every Zelda game is available on it between HD Remasters and the Virtual Console. It even has BotW.

They could literally just rebrand the Wii U as the Nintendo Legacy, the only system it's missing games from is GameCube. I have every Mario game on mine except Sunshine.
 
My reasonable expectations :
- Starts with an image of partners ..."you are asking what is left, so please take a look"
Dark Souls 1+2 reveal. Comes with all DLC, Link costume to be found and Ridley as

Oh, shit. I forgot about this.

I feel bad that I'm so excited for that Mike Mika tease, haha.

Disney Afternoon is nice, but I hope that means we get Mega Man Legacy Collection 1+2 as well (I know they didn't work on 2 but no way they'd only port one of them).

That aside, I hope there's not too much Odyssey focus, that'd be lame. Damn I'm excited though, Directs like this are like Christmas.

Edit: Jesus, please don't remind me about From Software, I don't think there's anything I want more in this world than a Dark Souls compilation on Switch.

Man... There are so many possibilities for Wednesday that I didn't even think about a potential OS update. It'd be nice to get some upgrades there!

Does anyone think this Direct could be Apple related?

Most likely not, they confirmed for the JPN Direct that there is no mobile information. My personal expectations are that AC Mobile is delayed until 2018 and the Zelda mobile game is coming this fall. It'd be a good partner to BoTW on Switch and it certainly feels like a "big" partnership that Apple would want. Animal Crossing and Fire Emblem don't have enough instant brand recognition for Apple to want them on-stage.
 
Oh, shit. I forgot about this.

It doesn't necessarily mean a (or any) Souls game coming to the Switch - though I would like to see some manner of update on that whole "getting Dark Souls to run on the Switch" rumor from previous. Remember, From are already working on around three new projects at the moment, one of them being Armored Core 6 so it could simply be one of said projects confirmed for Switch...that is if they intend to unveil/announce anything new yet.

Mike Mika works at Digital Eclipse, who made Disney Afternoon Collection. Really hoping that means we see a Switch port.
The fact that someone else from Digital Eclipse commented on this makes it fairly clear we'll see something from them. Good stuff if true, I think their collections would do very well on Switch (maybe not so well now that we're talking about late ports, but better late than never).
