I'm going with an Animal Crossing Direct within the next few weeks.

No General Direct for a very long time. I don't see them doing two Directs before AC comes out, and I don't see them doing a General Direct soon after an AC Direct.

If they need to announce stuff they'll do so on Twitter.

Can people start getting banned for posting bs rumors? I really think that there should be some sort of consequence for leading people on for it to be nothing.

But why?!

What sense does that make?!

We forget sometimes that not only do we like directs, they're a fantastic marketing tool for Nintendo! They want to do them! Things will get way more attention in directs than a random tweet

Not buying a 20th General Direct.

I could totally see an Animal Crossing Direct though. But for a General it looks like we're waiting until March

They're just going to announce Pikmin 3 and Super Mario 3D World on Twitter?

You've got it wrong. You get hyped for a general direct. When that fails you go down to mini-direct. And then when that doesn't come into fruition you hope and pray for a Twitter direct. You skipped the entire middle portion of the hierarchy.

Remember Nate said things will be looking good after March, so perhaps a mini direct in April and a general Direct at E3/September

Tweet wasn't aimed at anyone specifically, just those many Twitter accounts that waste their time pretending they know stuff and build a following from it

What if this is all a very, very advanced and elaborate sanity effect from Eternal Darkness? Like, I'm not an adult in 2020, I'm still a teenager in 2003 playing Eternal Darkness in my parents' house and I triggered this sanity effect which has me believing 2020 will have things like Trump as president and no Nintendo Direct for >180 days.

Makes more sense than the alternative, right?
