Nintendo usually demo more than one game during these preview events.
There's a chance right? No way they only went for Mystery Dungeon? Or am I kidding myself lol


With influencers playing Mystery Dungeon and still no date for Pokemon HOME, I wouldn't be surprised if we get a Pokémon Direct this week. There's a lot we don't know and what better place to announce it than in a Direct? Bring it on, Nintendo!
Stop it Doug!

My guess is something small or something we have seen, but if they did fly people out for something else my guess would be it's what the Mario Kart team has been working on.

Xenoblade is seen as one of the best Nintendo game of the decade.

I really can't wait to play it for the first time.

I disagree. This is basically influencers. It's not all big media. If something brand new was there then lots of media would come too.


A Mystery Dungeon/Animal Crossing double headliner would make sense except it's not Animal Crossing. Not sure why they didn't do it so the press and influencers can play both in one trip.
The only thing I can really think of is

Nintendo

I should have specified that if it's something significant and entirely new my guess would be it's what the Mario Kart team is working on. Something like Arms is heavily impression based and it would fit. As I said I do think it's something small and/or that we have already seen.

I don't really see why they would bother having people play a short demo of Animal Crossing. There's nothing about the experience of Animal Crossing that can be condensed down to a playable demo.

I'm gonna warn y'all, even tho its not gonna makes you any less mad when your hype is blown, but when they do pressers like this isnt it for things like LABO or fit adventure? new physical accessories no one was expecting?

I feel like we could get a short Xenoblade Direct close to release. I mean they have had a 40 minute presentation just for one Smash character before ^_^;

Zelda Direct is definitely going to happen eventually I think!

They did those after they were announced, not before. This is also only certain influencers. This makes sense to be something known already

I can't be in this thread anymore. People are expecting too much as always. I can foresee the cries of disappointment and I don't want to be associated with it lol.

Super Mario Party sold so well that they won't learn from their mistakes. Boards were awful. Not being able to play 50 turns was awful. VERY long cutscenes during gameplay.

Does Sony have exclusive rights to Tetris Effect? It'd be interesting seeing that announced for Switch with Labo VR support!

Are we really doing this again lol. Also why the hell did they bring back the post count in threads? Please delete any evidence of shame in the burning chibi thread, thanks.

It's not just best Nintendo game of the decade. It's one of the best JRPGs ever made, really.

About all the madness happening we gotta believe!!! Only 6 hours until possible Direct announcement! The moment that we are waiting for so much time is approaching! I'm really feeling it!!!

Wouldn't we get an announcement tomorrow, if a Direct is happening this week? Or are we on a "announcement two days in advance" cylce right now?
If we go by what Nintendo has done the past 2 years then they would announce the direct on Wednesday 9 am Eastern for the direct to be on Thursday (it's 32 hours before)

Some "possible leaker" on twitter said the direct is on Wednesday which means it would have to be announced on Tuesday 9 am Eastern.

Well, I'm about to fall asleep. See you all in six-seven hours :P

What's the possibility of a direct announcement in the morning versus wednesday morning?
