People love to hate on Nate and then disappear when he's right.
You insiders sure are a contentious people.

He did. Which is when the Direct is.

This post only works if I wasn't the first one in here admitting I was wrong.

Well... Nintendo themselves view this as a regular direct, as far as I can see.
i think prime 4 is hear

True, that's what I get for posting without reading all new posts first

He did. The guy has a decent track record.
When he said Halo MCC was coming to the PS5 and Switch 2, I laughed. I didn't believe it. Now I know for certain it's going to happen.

Bro I was right there with you. I didn't even bother posting because I thought it was so obvious they would never do back to back directs for Switch 1 and Switch 2.

My expectations are damn near the floor for tomorrow’s direct, especially since I thought there was simply no chance it was actually gonna happen.
If we get even one decent 1st-party game, I’ll be elated. I’m expecting a bunch of ports though.

so now it's been announced by nintendo, do we still think switch 2 is going to be out by june, i think they are going to hold it off till at least october now.
i will gladly take a switch 2 earlier but i guess they will want these new titles to sell a bit before people take their games over the switch 2.
30 minutes live direct so there must be a decent amount of games / hardware they may want to release to by themselfs more time.

Prime 4 at this Direct would be the most retarded thing ever.
Not going to happen. No Zelda, no Metroid etc.
Lower your expectations.

Definitely going to be maintenance mode, but could have some interesting projects. Certainly nothing to steal Switch 2 thunder, though.

People still think Nintendo will drop Metroid Prime 2 or Wind Waker HD.
They carefully planned this Direct and they won't do anything to steal Switch 2 Direct thunder like you said. I think that every surprise Nintendo will drop this week, will be running on S2 as well

They won't announce any big titles. No F Zero, nothing of that order.

If F Zero was considered a "big" title we'd have a new one by now.

It won't show. Period.

Nintendo continues to do whatever they want and control the narrative around their release plans.
I will take a shot at one prediction - this will be the final game announcements for the NSO emulator apps on Switch. A set of new apps will be released on Switch 2 and will continue to be updated with new content. Subscribers will be able to continue accessing the apps on Switch for the foreseeable future, just no new content.

The last 3D Mario game was in 2017. We are long overdue show us what you've been cooking Nintendo.
A couple schools of thought with this, confidence or lack of confidence. With the Switch 2 launch phases, i'm wondering if they don't expect many releases to drive the hardware. Whilst I can't imagine something like the N64 release schedule of 1996/97. Maybe they will announce cross platform games that take advantage of the Switch 2, to fill in the gap or additional content on Switch 2.
I expect nothing from the direct, I expect to be disappointed. The least they could do is bring back the puppets.

This is a Metroid direct. All other games and announcements after, will probably not ever live up to the amount of greatness to be witnessed in a few mere hours. It is high time to reflect on past times of hype, and realize, nothing may ever come to close to this again in the history of gaming. 18 years motherfuckers. 18 years. You sons of bitches, the game is here. It’s finally fucking here.
