Hyped. Already bought Mario Wonder and Mario RPG. They have a lot coming that we know about. Probably getting World of Horror in October.
Not yet sold on WarioWare.
Wouldn't shock me to see Splatoon DLC info.

Nah, they will most likely make a whole event to announce their new console. A direct is "too small" for something like that.

Zelda 2 Remake by MercurySteam.

Metroid Prime 2 Echoes HD remaster Shadow drop please, from my user name it is obvious that it is my favorite Metroid game. Other than that i'd be happy with a trailer for Luigi's Mansion 2 / Dark Moon and the New Peach game.

Nah. That's next spring most likely. I also doubt we'll see anything on Metroid Prime 4 either as it's probably a cross generation title that launches with the Switch 2. Hoping for a Prime 2 remake announcement though.

Yes, absolutely.

It will be decent, but I'm not expecting anything amazing. They'll be more details on the Peach game, and a couple of minor first party announcements for Q1.
Nintendo will save their main stuff for the Switch 2 announcement show early next year, but we could see Prime 4 or an F Zero remaster.
Given that this is the TGS Direct, expect many Japanese third party games to be shown.

Maybe Tears of the Kingdom DLC. Not sure if they're doing that this time.

This. They gonna send off the Switch into its last holiday with a focus on Super Mario Bros. Wonder, Super Mario RPG and probably some bigger third-party announcement or something (but nothing mind-breaking). I heavily suspect that Metroid Prime 4 will be kept for the Switch 2 reveal (but will be cross-gen) as will that Princess Peach game.

What, and see Switch sales fall off a cliff just before the Christmas sales splurge?
March 2024 announcement. Still Just inside their financial year, is when Switch 2 will be announced

Unlikely. They don't want to impact their last Christmas sales for the Switch.
I'm betting they'll announce it Spring 24 with a release later that year.

Slow drip to Prime 4, which looks even more like Prime 4 could possibly be cross Gen release on Switch 2?

Hoping too! Maybe Aonuma misspoke!

The safe guess is another Fire Emblem game. Maybe we finally get one in the Echoes line.

- Maybe a TTYD GameCube rerelease ahead of Mario RPG to give Mario RPG fans something new to play til November?
- something Zelda that's more traditional would be nice, even if a re-release or port.
- Want to see more of Fantasy Life i
- Peach game proper unveiling and a full trailer
- long shot prediction: first marketing push for Metroid Prime 4 ahead of 2024 release. Assuming at this point it's cross-gen and they just won't mention that til the new hardware is talked about next year.
- F-Zero might finally be getting its day in the sun, like Pikmin got over the summer with the 4 deluge and then 1&2 rereleases to celebrate ahead of the launch. I'd be happy with GBA FZeros added to NSO, but it seems like a premium retail release of maybe a GX remake seems more likely, I dunno. It's been so long, if they're doing something FZero then it's gotta be something major.
- I think anything major related to DK is a long shot. I feel like a new DK platformer or 3D game would be saved for Switch 2.
This should be a really solid Direct, though. Especially since Wonder is their big holiday game and they've already done the blowout on that 2 weeks ago. Lots of room in a 40 minute meaty general Direct to cover off on other things and just a brief trailer for Wonder.

Hasn't even been a year since Engaged, seems way too soon.
Seems like same with their other rotating series, Paper Mario, FE games are on a 3-4 year cycle.

Nintendo has been putting the work where it matters and keeping a solid line up of releases at a very steady pace. As a matter of fact it is even better than Sony's.

Only reason I say this is because Engage was supposedly done and held for almost a year. But yeah, it's unlikely.

It's okay, they can make it up by revealing the release date for Silksong.Switch 2 exclusive launch title.

An ambitious 3D Donkey Kong would be incredible.Donkey Kong standalone for the love of God. Please don't let the rumor be true.
