Well not necessarily, nintendo obviously is waiting until japan is mostly recovered. You are not going to announce that its moved to friday 6 hours after they delayed it.

I could very well see it being announced today at 3pm BST/4pm CEST(the usual time) and it airing the same time it would if the earthquake didnt happen(so 8 hours after the announcement)
There is no way they will announce it today for today. Either Monday or no announcement today.

We dont know, if it has crucial online info and it launches in 2 weeks then they want that info out asap. Normally i would agree with you, but with what happened in japan its a special circumstance and not the first time a direct airs on a friday

Why do I get the feeling they are going to announce the ND day on the weekend and then have the Direct on Monday/Tuesday

Yeah thats interesting, if I recall they always were saying focus on 2018. Spring, Winter, Holiday...but this time "upcoming games".

For instance:

-2017. September - "focused on games launching next few months"
-2018. March - "focused on games launching this year"
-2018. E3 - "only games launching this year"
-2018. September - "upcoming games"

I mean maybe doesnt mean nothing, but I definitely expecting some 2019. announcements in any case (some Q1 or maybe even Q2 2019. announcements).
Yoshi is 2019 and now seems pretty certain that they would have shown an update on that.

Removing the Pokemon piece from the Direct or playing the same trailer they will show on Sunday would be kinda weird. Any chance the Direct happens during the weekend? We've never had one on Saturday but we also never had a Direct delayed so...

Yeah it's kind of weird that Nintendo delayed the direct, but some of the companies involved are still going about it business as usual. It kind of softens the intent of the delay.

You guys can all guess all you want. I'm not leaking anything. We will see within a week I'm sure so just chill and enjoy the weekend. Fall is almost here. Weather is getting nice. Cities are buzzing with energy as people start to come back outside again. At least in my neck of the woods. I'm going out now too. Beautiful day here. And my Switch is out of battery lol just got off plane a bit ago, got 4 hours of Octopath in finally cracked the 10 hour mark. Wish I had more time for games.
This is clearly Animal Crossing guys lol

I don't know whether this is the right place to post,
but Korean Game Rating committee revealed Civilization VI for switch.

After Vern post earlier this morning, that's a strong possibility. Either that one or a brand new city builder from another third party or even Nintendo themselves? Laura K already has her fair share of trolls on Twitter due to her gender identity, she's not the kind that might risk attracting some more with unfounded leaks/rumours just to win some temporary internet points.



Looks unlikely to be Cities, sadly. But her tweet, plus the rumour about the city builder coming, did have me thinking that.

Edit: Civ VI! Yeah, that'd sort of cover the rumour of the city builder style of game I guess. Not sure it accounts for LKB's tweet though?

It won't be today. The delay announcement even said that "this week's" Direct will be delayed, implying that it won't happen this week.

I would argue that the handful of games that I know are all bigger than what has leaked so far, but none that I know will be at the Direct are "megaton." Though I'm out of touch with most of what's popular over the past decade so who's to say really? . To me FF15 PE is not that big of a title but I guess to some seeing FF on Switch is a huge deal. As always I only know 3rd parties and nothing about internally developed games, I know of 3 games for sure in the Direct and rumors of another one. I think most people will be glad these games are coming and will do well with the Switch audience, but again I don't think you can classify them as megaton.

are these ports from last gen or current consoles?

So the flood gates are finally opening. I guess we forgot the rating boards also leaking stuff.
