Haha people are losing their mind on both Nintendo and Next Gen news droughts. I highly recommend just playing the games out there already. Kentucky Route Zero is really good! Or go play Outer Wilds! There are just so many great games to help pass the time :)

Ignoring this thread until next week now. It's just not worth the investment. Too many emotions and always disappointment. Goddamn Nintendo.

The only times I've visited these threads are Wednesdays around the expected announcement times. I'd say my relationship to these threads are healthy.

That's a remake not a port. But besides I really don't get how people still claim the system is lacking games, it's just baffling to me.

It's one thing to say "i dont really care for whats coming up" it's another to claim "the system has no games". And my statement regarding this was a general one. Hell I didn't even mention amount of game releases or stuff like that in my original post.

It's a graphical remake of an old GBA/early-DS game with a few possible gameplay tweaks. That isn't going to light many people's worlds on fire.

And when people say "the system has no games," they don't ever mean that literally. If so then even the Wii U would have "had games," pretty much constantly because even in its darkest days it was getting some indies here and there. What they mean is that the system doesn't have a diverse enough lineup to cater to their, and perhaps many other people's, needs. And considering the fact that Nintendo's may only have Animal Crossing when it comes to significant releases for Q1 that's a fair point to make.

Seriously, though, I'm sad and I get the all doom and gloom attitude we have here for the past hour, but let's not forget : IS, EPD 8 and EPD 9 must be working on something for at least 3 years. Bayo 3 should be finished by now. Monolith may have been developing something since XC2 as well. I'm THIRSTY for news, but I'm pretty sure everyone will be happy when we'll get them. This is not another 2018

The Punished King and the False Pretenders arc more like it. Right now we have the True King in exile while the royal committee is sending out false leads to take out the pretenders. The wario laughing tweet was a sign that anyone who leaked a direct this week was actually biting bait and now the assassins will come after them.

Shit. Please guys, we must write down the lore of this thread. For the generations to come.

Our children will know about the King.
The one who gave us hope. The one whose words were never to be betrayed by reality. The one we punished for crimes he never committed.

Nintendo justs trust AC to be the only game we need until September or so.

-Feb 20th AC Direct: The game has enough content to be the only new first-party release during the first 9 months of 2020.
-Sept 2020 AC Direct: DLC pass for the game will make it last until BotW2 is released in Summer 2021

This is what some insiders meant by "from March onwards there will be enough content". I have heard a lot that "AC is the kind of game you're always playing", and clearly Nintendo knows it too.

I don't agree and I will leave it at that. Seems pointless to argue about this here.

What I find weird, though, is that Pokémon Home tweets were posted at the same time for all regions, couldn't NoA just post it to appear at a certain time?
Not that I think they will announce a Direct in 1 minute, just wondering.

My uncle told me Doug Bowser just logged onto twitter. He's about to drop it

Doug Bowser removes his face, he was Hiroshi Yamauchi all along. He announces on twitter that videogames are for lonely losers and Nintendo gets back into the love hotel business. The Nintendo Direct Era thread still keeps counting down every Wednesday

Life is good

Nope, you are not allowed to show disappointment here. It means you are dumb and just bad because you are criticizing nintendo.
Criticising is fine, but in the last 10 pages or so people are melting down saying that Nintendo obviously has no titles planned for release this year outside Animal Crossing. How the hell can you criticize what they haven't announced yet? It just shows how ridiculously obsessive the people in this thread are.

Talking about more serious matters, is there any chance that MM2 and FE3H aren't the only first-party games on tomorrow's sale?

I'm not going to attack him as that would be ridiculous but it might honestly be better for "insiders" to just not post anything if plans can change so easily. It just raises expectations for a lot of people and inevitably disappoints them when nothing happens.
It's not their fault ERA is full children that can't control themselves, they can post whatever they want.
