"What a bunch of jokahs" is integral to the XBC experience.
They should just make it about Wario making games for old consoles or something...have traditional ones like you describe in GameCube and GBA levels, have Wario Ware Twisted and Touched callback levels with handheld gyro, a Wii based level with the joycons. Each one combines some classic Wario Ware games with brand new ones in that control style, then there's Switch based ones taking advantage of the full breadth of the systems controls too, doing some wacky shit like sliding the joycons on and off and putting the switch on the table and stuff.
"Wario Ware Ultimate" basically but I doubt it would happen lol.
I agree but it doesn't matter how good your voices are eventually I get tired of them. Had the same problem with Persona 5. Let me listen to the battle music, please.

Do you mind if I add a threadmark for this? It's a slick chart
Is there a direct each quarter? Didn't we get three regular directs last year? The first one, the E3 one and then the one in September. Not counting game specific or indie directs.
I'm team next week. If Emily is correct and 2020 will be comparable to 2017 in quantity, they gotta start talking sooner rather than later.
I literally stopped playing Xenoblade when the game released because the voices were annoying my college roommates
Yea but the pattern is gamestop sku's list two weeks before.
Some fun predictions for this year (don't look deeply into these)
-Mario Odyssey 2 will be announced for 2021.
-Breath of the Wild 2 will release in November.
-Nintendo Kart is real and will feature third party characters at or after launch (Sonic, Pac Man and Mega Man)
-Crash, Ryu Hyabusa, Sora and Dante will come to Smash before the end of the year.
-Camelot is making a new Mario Golf with GB RPG elements.
-Intellgient Systems is making a new Paper Mario that will be a sequel to Thousand Year Door.
-Pokken 2 is happening.
-Fire Emblem Warriors 2 is happening and will celebrate the 30th anniversary of the franchise.
-Bayonetta 3 will release this year.
-Pikmin 3 is coming with new story content that will lead into Pikmin 4.
-Mario 3D World is coming and will feature an extra world.

It still blows my mind that one year ago today, we had no idea any of the following existed:
Astral Chain
Mario Maker 2
Link's Awakening remake
Tetris 99
Ringfit Adventure
Cadence of Hyrule
Ori and Cuphead on Switch
Official translation and release of original Trials of Mana
I have absolutely no idea how Nintendo/the Switch could follow up a set of surprises (and, just great ideas) like that. To me, that's the most exciting part of everything to come. Yeah when more Pikmin stuff and 3D World and Odyssey 2 show up it will be great, but to me what elevated 2019 to be a cut above other years wasn't Luigi and Fire Emblem, (regardless of how good they were), it was seeing Tetris 99, Cadence of Hyrule, Ringfit, etc. and realizing what incredible but completely out-of-the-blue ideas they all were.

Could still be late next week. Either way it's happening soon so I'm in no rush.
Solid predictions, but i don't know about Odyssey 2 announced for 2021, that's too far and don't forget Mario games are announced very close to their launch.
That would be great!
Also maybe you can find a way to include the picture directly into this thread, that would look much nicer. I only posted it on reddit because somehow uploading the image didn't work for me lol
I'm really intrigued to see if Nintendo are capable of bringing the entire Xenoblade cast back together.
Jenna Coleman is obviously the big question. Her absence would hurt the game (if they need her for new voice content that is).

no prob, thanks for the chart
alright everybody for reference here's the original Reddit post:
and here's the image:
exciting times ahead
9/1 or 16/1 seems likely then..
But when ever there's 2 likely dates.. it feels like it's always the second one that turns true so I'm betting on that ;P

This list is bae. I'd be fine if Mario Odyssey came next year if we got 3D World, Nintendo Kart, Pokken 2, BOTW2, Paper Mario 4, and Warriors 2 this year.
If only. I'm afraid that my most wanted Wii U port won't come to Switch until 2021 since this year is supposedly pretty port/remaster-heavy already.
There is the oddity of the next amiibo wave being the 17th.
We have one port and one remaster so far, and probably another port in Pikmin. Maybe a third in 3D World, but maybe not. I think we're fine on that front lol
FE Warriors 2 over Hyrule Warriors 2 would be pretty shocking considering the performance of both and Hyrule Warriors being older and more ripe for a sequel
DK gets almost no official merchandise. For me, this is a wonderful start of the year. I AM getting my hopes up. A new DK game is coming and so is K. Rool. I wish there would be news in the next Direct.
That's the main thing yeah. The only other explanation is they're releasing fighter pack 5 like, literally in the first week of February.
i think since 2017 they've stuck to this schedule for general directs: one in jan/feb, one at e3, one at september
the rest are game specific or indie focussed.
These days the pattern seems to be Early Year - E3 - September for General Directs, with game specific or "special" Directs sprinkled here and there in the year.
???
They don't need to bring them back. They can reuse the voice recordings that they already have.
With Hyrule Warriors, I feel like the Switch version had a ton of content as is and is really only missing BotW content. Besides the costumes for Link and Zelda. With FEW2, I feel like there is more more content they can mine for a full-blown sequel.
I couldn't care less about FE Warriors. I want my FE remakes.
(Unless they make FE Warriors 2 into something truly special).
(Unless they make FE Warriors 2 into something truly special).
Couple of things:
- Omega Force has already been doing 2 musous, Persona and One Piece, I doubt they're also doing another musou this year. I think a 2D remake of an old game is more fitting celebration for the anniversary.
- Mario Golf isn't happening. Mario Golf 3DS failed pretty hard, one of the least selling Mario spinoffs ever. And it doesn't have a HD outing to use its assets to have a cheap and fast development.
Confirmed:
Tokyo Mirage Sessions
Xenoblade Chronicles
Famicom Detective Club
Famicom Detective Club 2
Rumoured:
Pikmin 3
Metroid Prime Trilogy
Super Mario 3D World
gimme blazing sword/binding blade remake nao. also metroid fusion remake.
Did I miss a plausible rumor for 3D World? This is my first time hearing this.
I always forget about Famicom lol. And the last two are more wishful thinking than rumors as of right now.
Is not like there needs to be a rumour for it. We know it's coming.
