Do we expect another Nintendo Direct for the rest of the year?

Haha yeah.... no one who knows anything is talking and everyone who is talking knows nothing.
Oh I agree with you. NSMBU was my favorite of the modern NSMB games. I loved we had a world map again.
Yeah I thought Mario Maker was coming. King Zell seemed to imply Mario Maker was coming next year.
This JIFF perfectly encapsulates the relationship between Nintendo's PR and fans in the Direct era:
It's pretty funny. Everyone is getting times confused and what direct it is. It's like chickens running around with no head.
Luigi U uses the same world map as NSMBU, but each level has a one minute time limit IIRC and they're harder.
I think NSMBU port is nice, as for Mario Maker I would have preferred a MM2 insteadof just a port.
Harder but much more interesting level design imo. Luigi also plays like Mario 2.
I just want to say, I'm proud of everyone. It all started with a small dream and now that desire is souring across the land.
Direct will never die.
Give me N64 Mini with Banjo Kazooie and Banjo Tooie and finish the Direct with Banjo and Kazooie in Smash.
My predictions:
Surely happening:
Surely happening:
- Not happening tomorrow
- Pokemon Let's Go
- Smash Bros Ultimate
- Yoshi game
- Dragon Ball Z fighters
- Mario Party
- The World ends with you
- No more heroes: Travis strikes back
- Dark souls
- Something casual
- Something for 3DS
- New Super Mario Bros U port announced
- First Bayonetta 3 trailer
- First Metroid Prime 4 trailer
- Metroid Prime Trilogy HD announced
- Some new megaton for next year
- New Shin Megami Tensei V info
oh we should forget about mother 3 cuz
we're never getting it
instead we get NSMB WII U
If this actually happens I will start believing in god again.
If they announce the pocket edition rather than the real thing, it will send quite a negative message in my opinion. The selling point of the Switch is that it's not just a handheld, but a home console that can be brought outside. Pocket edition of a game seems too much of a compromise in my view.
It was revealed one year ago and it's supposed to come out this year. Even if it's delayed till 2019, they will surely show something.
The game is now confirmed to be out in 2019, they promised we will see news about it this year, though.

They could still have a direct in like December and show it there.
Torna is surely happening, one last push as it releases kind of a week after the direct
I guess we should make this clear before the announcement. We always get one new game announcement in a Nintendo Direct, but it may not be for the following year.
Really? There's not enough stuff this year to cover a 30-40 minute Direct.
last year september direct we got Wolfenstein 2 scheduled for 2018. who know
We don't know how long it is, there's stuff they can announce for 2018 (like that rumored NSMB U port) and this one's a special one as they have the firmware update and the online service to cover. I'd say there's enough for half an hour without even mentioning 2019. ;]
They'll probably do a deep dive on Mario Party or something, they love to do that.
I seriously wouldn't expect too much from this. One or two neat 3rd party port, NSMBU, a cool Smash trailer. And some minor stuff. No 2019, or at least no 1st party announcement. There wasn't one last year.
If I was betting I would say yes we'll get a new game for 2019. It could be small or big.
We'll see. I have high hopes for this Nintendo Direct.
I think they will show something for 2019. Even the Mini Direct in January revealed Mario + Luigi for 3DS for 2019.
That wasn't the Mini Direct, that was Switch only. Mario & Luigi was revealed in the March Direct. Still, I still think we could get a 2019 reveal, like Yoshi or more Fire Emblem (though I don't think it will be Metroid; that's Game Awards material)
Well same thing. You proved my point even more since it was the March Direct lol. I fully expect to see a 2019 game.
I want to reiterate I think NSMB Deluxe will be a 2018 game.
My predictions:
- They are going to mention Online before the highlighted game (same thing they did with MyNintendo gold coins)
- Highlighted games are Let's Go P/E, Super Mario Party and Smash
- NSMBU port
- New Mario Kart 8 tracks update, launches the day of direct
- Splatoon 2 update, launches the same day as online
- South Park: Stick of Truth and FFXV Pocket HD
- Warframe, launches the same day as online
- Third party games from Capcom, Square Enix and maybe Activision, Ubisoft and Bethesda
- Sports reel just like last year (2K, FIFA)
- Yoshi trailer
- Fire Emblem: The Three Houses trailer

Nintendo Life tweeted that they believe a direct is happening tomorrow, so most of conversation moved to that thread.

I'm expecting a remaster of the former... but on 3DS in 2019 :(

Oh. No wonder this didn't get to 50 pages.
No. It's years old.
It had Iwata, Reggie, and I think Miyamoto. It went "X is falling" (can't remember what X was, maybe Wii U sales). It looked like they were in some sort of falling room due to the pens and camera angle. Iwata went "launching Nintendo direct" and Reggie continued "standby megatons".
Then there was a shot of Mario from within a fighter jet, who replied "Let's a go!". There might have been a shot of the plane from the outside after that.
I might still have a copy of that .gif on my PC at home.
Edit: Found it:
