I don't think it will be a Mini Direct.
NOA posted before the January Direct pictures of a Mii and ChibiRobo because they both had a Direct shadow-dropped on youtube. They didn't do anything of this sort this time.

I thought that was to mess with us. January was wild. Other developers joined in on Twitter.

Intel must be quite sure. They easily could have said the Fire emblem thing was the second direct they where hinting at.

If they were the only ones saying it I wouldn't bother so much, but because King Zell said it too it gets attention.

Hey Nate. Do you have any clues or anything about a direct coming?

I do not.

So far they have a perfect record announcing directs, they claim this is the same source.

Thanks. What a weird situation.

I have the feeling that Gaming Intel is just reading this thread and piggybacking off of our ramblings here.

Isn't it weird that Nate Drake, a Nintendo Insider™, has the same name as a Sony mascot? Hmm????

Really makes you think.

If that was the case they could have said the Fire emblem thing was their second direct. That would have meant they would have continued their so far perfect streak for sure.

I think Liam said SNES is coming to Switch (as in to the online subscription). Don't quote me though. I'll rewatch his thing to see what he said exactly.

I don't doubt that we're getting SNES games on Switch. I would just find it weird if we got N64 games first.

Dark Cloud · Nov 7, 2018

I just want a Metroid Prime Trilogy HD...I can see it selling pretty good

Deleted member 8593 · Nov 8, 2018

So, new Kirby Star Allies DLC was shown with no sign of a Direct.

The previous Wave of DLC wasn't shown in any Directs either. I don't think this means anything for a potential Mini Direct.

The Direct could still potentially give this news to international viewers though (since the video was only uploaded in Japan).

Lelouch0612 · Nov 8, 2018

There should be a decent number of Switch games in that.

With Warframe releasing soon, they are only working on Doom Eternal as an announced project.

NintendoMariah · Nov 8, 2018

Well Twitter is flooded about a mini direct but there isn't no crazy countdown thread....weird

Bowser · Nov 8, 2018

Not officially announced by Nintendo yet despite it is releasing in two weeks. Bundles are usually shadow dropped but featured in Directs as well. I still believe a Mario Kart Direct is quite possible.

I think we can safely assume Wolfenstein: Young Blood at the very least.

Yep pretty much, this combined with the comments that the next Wolfenstein is coming to Switch.. it's pretty much a lock.

I guess that's true. My prediction of this being the "shit we couldn't fit during a regular Direct" might come true.

Nintendo should try to pickup Tabata

He's starting his own business to work on a project he wants to do.

Ok. I didn't see that.

So, either they drop a mini Direct in three hours or we can disregard the rumour?

If there's no Mini Direct today we still have the rest of November. The rumor is there's a second direct for November.

We dont really expect a mini next week do we? and I'd be confident that they would ride Let's Go hard the week after that aswell.. it's either this week or late november IMO.

Hercule · Nov 8, 2018

I don't see why there couldn't be a direct early next week. It could even include a pokemon trailer or something Meltan related.

I'm glad he said that as soon as possible as I didn't want people to meme him into Nintendo.

They don't do directs early in the week. They're always midweek unless it's E3.

The rumor is only that there's a direct in November. It getting dropped today is just speculation.

Yeah, that's midweek though.

Everything about Meltan has already been revealed.

All I want is the N64 Mini to be announced. I'm tired of it being teased all around...

Vitor · Nov 8, 2018

N64 Switch App would be amazing :O
Specially if it's included in the online membership, but I feel like that would never happen.

Guaraná · Nov 8, 2018

Well, Im not going to get my hopes too high. I think there will be no more Direct in 2018.

Maybe in January.

Yeah that would never happen without a price increase of the online subscription.

The dream is dead. No YouTube. No direct. The world is ending.

Intel did ask to be patient, people just assumed it was today. There have been directs on November 12 or later in the month.

I don't particularly expect anything today, but wouldn't it be in ~40 minutes if there's anything?
Maybe I'm just thrown off by daylight savings.

I was joking lol. Next week seems viable regardless if Pokémon is releasing.

They announced the January Mini Direct at 9 am Eastern. I was just going by that.

Where is Youtube and the Direct! :( Let's hope for next week.

Hercule · Nov 8, 2018

I still think one final direct in November to boost holidays sales makes a lot of sense. They are nowhere near their sales target and have hinted at unannounced DLC for games out now.

Really hope they announce one next week.

Dark Cloud · Nov 8, 2018

It seems like the ex-Ubisoft employee is trying to figure out what happened.

This person knew about the Labo Presentation before Nintendo announced it. They knew about Pokémon Let's Go. They always talk in this odd riddle style.

People here needs to stop to think that ONLY people in this forum are '''''''''insiders''''''''''''.

Emily is the only, because for every other '''''''leak'''''''''' posted here, I read them in another place before someone from here said anything.

Seriously, this is just a niche forum. You do not need the create narrative to glorificate this place.

Meanwhile, someone from here said that we would play CoD this year... Well, if were someone from Twitter, people would attack him, but it is someone from here, so let us just sweep this from conversation...

sigh,

This is why I always roll my eyes at these rumors and stuff. Any of us could be running that twitter.
