While my biggest hope is Xenoblade 3, I'm also excited to see what the new controller is for!
Yeah in 31 hours there will be a laughable amount of complaining and disappointment, as per usual.
I remember in the aftermath of the direct earlier this year someone said they were ashamed to be a Switch owner :D
Nintendo had one chance to sell the Switch ahead of the holidays and blew it so bad I doubt they'll ship a single unit in 2022 either.
I've rarely been disappointed In their directs. There are always nice surprises and I play many different kinds of games and have a particular interest in seeing what 3rd parties announce. Disappointment people almost always fall into categories of people with narrow interests (Nintendo 1st party only games) or narrow franchise interest like expecting pikmin every direct
Nintendo just shot themselves in the foot. I don't know how much you know about selling video games (I'm an expert)
Ha! You're ambitious, I can't even dream that big!
XC3 would be enough for me, but Silksong and Rabbids? That would polish things off. Anything to get me back playing. :)
Announced games:
Breath of the Wild 2
Splatoon 3
Metroid Prime 4
Bayonetta 3
Detective Pikachu 2
Rumoured games:
DonkEPD Kong
Xenoblade Chronicl3s
Fire Emblem Echoes: Genealogy of the *mumble mumble*
Kirby 3Dedede
if they show two from the first group and at least one from the second that would be pretty cool. Other than that I'd love to see something completely out of left field like Astral Chain or Ring Fit Adventure and obviously third party games.

How did you find out the official title? Expect lawyers at your door any minute.
I think it could almost be a mid-2022 title tbh, like Galaxy 2 was. Nintendo has had some sort of Mario game every June or July since 2018.
I've said it a few times but we've been in a slightly weird position this year where, even as the announcement schedule returned to normal (big events in February, June, and September), the actual announcements in those events skewed slightly differently because Nintendo needed to announce almost all their first half titles in February and almost all their second half stuff in June. Before this E3, only Super Mario Party was announced at E3 and released in the same year and this year there were 4 games at E3 for 2021. We've already had several major exclusives confirmed for 2022, too.
So I'm not quite sure what to expect tomorrow. Even after them announcing a bunch of games this year, there's still quite a few things we're waiting for: HAL's next game, Monolith Soft's next game, something from EPD 8, 9, 10, the next Fire Emblem, Bayonetta 3, Metroid Prime 4 (not yet), Zelda (not yet), Detective Pikachu 2. It won't be that long before Good-Feel and Next Level likely have something to show, but I'm not expecting them just yet.
My assumption is tomorrow is mostly geared towards third-parties coming in the next 4 to 5 months, updates to NSO, DLC for first-party games, and obviously more of a glimpse at 2022. Those are safe expectations. But it's difficult to know what mix of first-party games to expect purely because there's actually still a fairly wide pool to choose from.
Apart from Kirby, because Kirby is eternal and will be there tomorrow.

Really the issue is Zelda. They can't put a 3D Mario and BOTW2 around the same time obviously, so one of them is going to be pushed to 2023.
Super Mario 3D title x Super Mario film = lucrative summer for Nintendo
Oh yeah most definitely a 0% chance of all of this happening.
I have more of a "pick 2" relationship with the above list - any 2 would make my direct, hands down.
However, if only Xenoblade 3 was present it would still be the best direct of the year for me : 3
Idk i feel like we had a LOT of 3D Mario lately and we could skip a year.
Yea unless Zelda releases earlier in the year. But with how slow they are marketing it i feel like it will be Fall 2022 at the very least. I don't feel like we neeeed a new 3D Mario next year, especially if we get DK and/or Kirby
Will Nintendo let us order 4 N64 controllers or limit it to 2 per account? That is the real question (assuming it happens).
Hoping for more Splatoon 3 info like updated salmon run and another new mode.
It's also time got a new pushmo
Mostly expecting a lot of third party announcements since we've had so many ratings and rumors.

"Nintendo should be ashamed that none of the games announced look like Kena"
Don't do that to yourself, expect what all the evidence points to: An N64 controller for NSO and nothing more.
