There's has to be something about Zelda. HAS TO BE!

And something about Metroid Prime 4. And MPT.

Yo.

GREAT ACE ATTORNEY REVEAL?!

Man, what was the longest direct we've had before this? Not even E3 had presentations this long.

50% we see one of these.

Some of my expectations for tomorrow:
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe dlc
Age of Calamity dlc
Mario Galaxy 2 - eshop release
Fire Emblem Echoes - remake of some old title
Metroid Prime Trilogy
Fingers crossed. Metroid Prime Trilogy would be fantastic. We haven't had a direct for so long that I'm expecting quite a lot from this one.

We'll probably get like 10-15 minute on pokemon snap and bravely default 2... then 10 minutes on smash maybe... don't know what the rest will be

i know they say they'll focus on first half of 2021, but i hope to get a teasing of botw 2 at the end (maybe bayonetta 3, but i reaaaaally doubt this one will be shown at all)

I have so little idea of what Nintendo is doing right now that I don't even know what realistic expectation look like. Would be happy to have a reason to power my Switch back on.

This feels like finding a relic of an ancient, forgotten civilization lol.
I think we might see the Splatoon something they teased at the beginning of 2020.
In terms of update infos, I suppose AC is a given. And maybe Age of calamity ?
Metroid 5 and new Fire Emblem remake also seems in the realm of possibilities...
So excited !

Nate kinda hinted at something this week but yea this is the first time in a while we dont have leaks of the direct or the games in it.
And 50 fucking minutes.

Holy shit.

I'm sorry, but I'm genuinely surprised.

I mean, I know that at the end of the day, these are just dumb video games (is what I usually tell myself despite playing them) but... Still...

Anyone else? How we feeling?

My eyes are still kinda wide right now...

What about Wario?

I've been waiting for a real new Wario for so many years...

Here, i leak some games to you that are with almost absolute certainty in the Direct but aren't in the Twitter announcement:

- Mon Hun Rise
- Bravely Default 2

We just had Sephy in Smash.

I think in the Direct, like ARMS, they'll announce the IP and not the fighter.

Surely a new Golden Sun is tucked away somewhere inside that fifty minutes, right? :)

Right?

... Right?

My realistic wishlist:
SMT III + V news
New Kirby or Yoshi game
Announcement of a follow up Pokémon direct
Zelda Collection announcement
BOTW2 Trailer plus release window

My crazy wishlist:
Metroid V
Monolithsoft's new game
A Resident Evil game
Bayonetta 3
Metroid Prime 4 development update
Mother 3 + Additional GBA games (Golden Sun, Advance Wars) coming to NSO
I think Nocturne HD is almost certainly a shoe-in, but V is a maybe IMO.

Atlus did previously announce this: https://personacentral.com/smt-online-live-2021-concert-details/

I would totally expect SMTV news at that, but I could see them having news in this Direct and then having a new trailer or something in that concert.

Now a 50 minute Direct can mean 1 or 2 things...
By tomorrow we will either have one of the greatest Nintendo Directs in history, or we are gonna have plenty of upset people on February 17th 2021!

And now it's time to get off the internet before they spoil everything for me tomorrow with leaks.

I'm not even going to speculate. 50 minutes, first 'real' Direct in ages. It's gonna be good.

50 minutes. So:

- 20 minutes of SSB talk
- 15 minutes of a Zelda Collection that will be similar to the Mario Collection in quality
- some amount of time dedicated to a special reveal for MH:R
- so like, 10 minutes on other stuff

:p

You're right, though I'm actually leaning toward the latter (while I'll be one of the few that will actually enjoy it lol)

I think it's safe to assume a new Nintendo game will be announced here, given that it's the first full-fat Nintendo Direct in a year and a half. What's the odds of a Breath of the Wild 2 release date?

This is where they're going to announce the Great Ace Attorney Collection isn't it.

I'll be so happy. Please shadowdrop tomorrow.
