Nintendo Direct Speculation |OT5| Hello darkness my old friend...
- Thread starter Meelow
- Start date

Probably just with how long it's been, I don't get the arguments though.
Just because this time last year we 100% knew the date doesn't mean that has to be the case for a direct to happen.
I they're saying that just because no insider has confirmed it's the 13th this year doesn't mean it's not the 13th
I am quite enjoying my AMD-powered Nintendo superconsole that rivals the PS4 Pro in horsepower, thank you very much
It could be coming to the Switch but i don't think so. Because the games DK Jungle beat and the Konga have very bad sales. And DK jet was terrible to control with the bongo's so i do not think Nintendo bring the bongo controllers back. And let we control dk with normal controllers.
Common sense tells me think there will be a direct far more than the word of any insider.
People are getting pessimistic because the only thing so many fans seem to care about now are Directs. Never focusing on what they already have, but always wondering "When's the next Direct? Why isn't it here yet?"
They could work on their backlog, replay some older games, or even play some of the current new games on Switch, but nope. We already know of two great first party releases in March too, but for many it's just not good enough. I think a lot of these people don't even want to play games at all; they just want the Direct.
And the day after the Direct hits, they're going to go back to asking when the next one is.
If bongos come out, they'll have joycon rails on the sides. Then you can slot the switch in the middle and play portable, or throw a grip between them for tv play
People start getting caught up on the everyday forum life and think someone has to hint for the direct to believe it's coming. Just use some common sense that it'll be this week.
A Donkey Kong music-based platformer would be fun
Think the music levels from Rayman Legends but replace Rayman with Donkey Kong and friends

If we get a new Jungle Beat with the bongos, I'd be hyped!
Honestly. That is why I'm only seeing this thread sporadically. Too much time spent on what basically amounts to nothing when I could be playing DQ or FE instead.
This has to be some kind of cycle. The closer we get to it the more pessimistic some people become lol
Yep. The Direct might be this week, might not. If not, I still have plenty of backlog left. I just picked up the Crash and Spyro remakes. I'll probably jump between one of them and Kentucky Route Zero once I finish Ori.
Even if he was reliable I wouldn't think he was trying to hint at anything
Oh Racoon I'm sorry. Yes I was poking at your post but it was all in good fun. Never meant to make it rude. Sorry pal
Yeah, it's weird! Maybe they're upping the pessimism in order to not be disappointed if it doesn't happen? No idea.
Anyway, I'm honestly fine if it's this week or not. I'm confident we'll get one by mid-March, so at this point every week that goes by just make it more and more likely. If not this week, then it'll be soon. And that's good enough for me.
I have still 3 bongos at home, and they're already compatible with the Switch I believe (with the GC adapter).
Man, DK Jungle Beat was so good (the GC version obviously). So, so good.
Those small showcase videos were amazing too, can't find any on youtube sadly (they're in the game).

you're absolutely fine, I'm just frustrated that my posts always turn out with a whinier and more pessimistic tone than I intend
all I meant to say is that after the 13th I'm not going to keep """speculating""" for my own health and I encourage others to do the same
Jungle Beat was amazing. Even if they drop the bongos I'd love to see some sort of follow-up.
I'd play that too. Do it with Zelda using the Gameboy animal mounts.
Yep, I'm with you. Actually I don't like to speculate at all. It's been like two years since I enjoyed it. Now I just like to read opinions, join in the predictions threads once a game has been properly announce or simply joke around. The exception is when an Insider appears, then I start making conspiracy theories like everybody else.
I'm just ready for the Nintendo Direct topic to get posted. It'll be all jolly from everyone in there
I usually watch Directs in the nude. In the past I've gotten so hyped that I've ripped off my shirt in excitement.
Until the Direct airs and there's no Metroid Prime Trilogy HD and our hope is burned to ashes, then you have my permission to die.
yeah I think I'm getting there too
the banter has always been the fun part really, as well as getting to know other people's tastes
