Nintendo Direct announced for February 17. 2pm PT/5pm ET/10pm GMT. Approx 50 minutes long.
- Thread starter --R
- Start date
If they start announcing new updates for Animal Crossing or a second Season pass for Pokemon Sword/Shield, I will rant a lot, especially if it takes 20 minutes of those 50.
Just a reminder. ALL general directs have "focused on Games releasing in *timeframe*" messages,. They do this with every normal direct. And always they have something beyoond that timeframe.... Hence "FOCUSED ON" not "EXLUSIVELY SHOWCASING".... Also we know of basically nothing for the rest of the year so most games will be new anyhow.
Trying to keep my expectations in check so I don't end up disappointed but here's what I think they'll show:
Half Life 3 - exclusive
Switch Pro unveiled - 13tf of power
BotW 2 trailer - graphics better than Demon Souls remake.

My predictions for the stuff we know about already:
DLC for Age of Calamity, Smash.
Next demo for MH Rise. Up later this week. Some coverage of new mechanic/area/monster/tie-in etc.
SMTIII: Nocturne release date.
MH Stories 2 release date.
Ys IX mentioned again.
No idea on new stuff, but with 50 minutes to play with, fingers crossed!

Call me gobsmacked! Because that's what I am right now! 50 minutes that's better than even e3 direct!
Bear in mind that when Nintendo says the Direct will focus on games for the "first half of 2021," that could either mean it's a hard rule and they won't even acknowledge the existence of a time period after that, or it could be a complete lie and they'll announce major titles for the next two years like they did at E3 2019.
I think Botw 2 is a holiday release and seeing as they're just talking about first half of the year I think not
There's also Monster Hunter Rise and Story of Seasons: Pioneers of Olive Town.
We don't know what's coming out during the summer months though.
Exciting! 50 minutes points to this being pretty substantial!
Not expecting much on BOTW2 or anything else that's like not this year, but there could be some surprises for H1.

I feel like this is an early birthday present because it's on the same week as my birthday and it's airing in between my classes. 50 minutes has got to be the longest Direct yet, no? Extremely hyped for this.

Here we come switch games , possible at long last wave race! Pilotwings and 1080. Type resort!
I dont think any new announcement of switch pro in this one I think that's coming in e3 direct time.
Possible AR/VR??

We should get really wild and not expect Metroid Prime 4, BOTW 2, Mother 3, Star Fox, Bayonetta 3, etc.
They almost assuredly will talk about games outside of the window they set up in tweets. BotW 2 is a real possibility despite its likely release date. Obviously not guaranteed but I'm hopeful for a small tease.
Were there any leaks about this taking place? I don't remember reading anything here.
Anyway, in for Metroid Prime Trilogy and ready to be disappoint, son.
