I see. I think they'll do either one for holiday with an official price cut for the Switch. And the other will come in March 2021 to maintain momentum as Xbox and PS5 try to pick up steam early 2021
That could work too and it might happen as well.

Yep I expect both games will be playable at E3 2020 because both will release before E3 2021 and after E3 2020. I don't see Nintendo doing both for the holidays. You want to space out your huge tent pole titles no matter if Sony and Microsoft are launching. Just have botw 2 ready for the holiday and do an official price cut for the Switch. Have bundles of Animal Crossing during the holidays too and Super Mario Party 2. Pokémon could possibly be there. I don't think it will be.Yep it's hard with Odyssey 2. I expect Botw2 and Odyssey 2 playable at E3 but only one of them will release in 2020. One is March 2021 release. Or is it possible that both are holiday releases? For Odyssey 2 late october release (like with first game) and botw2 be mid november release.
Nah, they waited until mid Feb for Mario Maker 2 which was one of this year's biggest titles. January to late June could work. Probably very unlikely, but nothing too insane.Not happnening i think, it would be already announced if it's q2 2020.
Omg the direct is happening tomorrow. 🎉
Nate you haven't heard anything?There are two key things supporting a January Direct: 1) We know Smash DLC has to release by end of February, so time is limited; 2) Nintendo typically has some sort of Direct (or Indie Showcase) ahead of PAX East, which is end of February this yr and considerably earlier than last yr.
Odds favor a mid-January Direct.
Specifically about a Direct? Not at this point in time.
It's generally how people react to Arlo here. Even his reasonable content gets ridiculed for some reason. I liked his twist with NintenDragons. Reminds me of Ring Fit in the "wtf" aspect, like in the weird off the wall way. Like who would predict a fitness JRPG with a story, side quests, and everything from Nintendo.outside of a couple, the predictions in that vid weren't that outlandish or wish list-like lol.
it wasn't much different than what people post here. Some Party, golf, 3d world, smash char., MPT, kirby, then nonsense. Weird reactions
I don't think BOTW2 and SMO2 are "necessary" for Nintendo to be competitive next holiday.
Heck, it's not even a sure thing NSW won't by the best selling console in 2021 yet. Not saying it will, but it's not a given that it won't
😯Specifically about a Direct? Not at this point in time.
Unrelated but potentially tied to a Direct? Sure.
It sucks Nintendo doesn't own HAL or Good Feel. We're feeling the effects of it when Nintendo barely has a handful of first party studios. These studios are now making mobile games or non Nintendo games when they could've kept making Nintendo games, but that's for a different topic...

Nintendo announces they're done with Directs for the next decade and will instead just stream Tropical Freeze every other month
Are you guys doing your 2019 year in review and predictions for 2020 videos?Nintendo announces they're done with Directs for the next decade and will instead just stream Tropical Freeze every other month
If only we could be that lucky.
It's a smart move, in a lot of cases - shadow-dropping something that might excite folks is a good way to drive up initial hype without having to necessarily run an effective mid-to-long-term marketing campaign. Lets them push their heavy-hitters even harder before release.Maybe Nate knows about a major-ish game or demo or something that is slated for a January release and would make sense as a Direct shadow-drop. Nintendo is obsessed with shadowdropping as much as they can nowadays.
Yeah, we're just a little busy with the holidays atm. I'm back on the 28th but tomorrow is my 10 year anniversary with my partnerAre you guys doing your 2019 year in review and predictions for 2020 videos?
Yeah, we're just a little busy with the holidays atm. I'm back on the 28th but tomorrow is my 10 year anniversary with my partner
Happy 10 year anniversary! That's good to hear. Maybe we'll get Rayman in space starting off this next decade on a good note.Yeah, we're just a little busy with the holidays atm. I'm back on the 28th but tomorrow is my 10 year anniversary with my partner

Ah yes just what I've been waiting for here we go!!!!
I think it more implies of a game releasing in Feb - a retail game, which Ninty needs a month of time to promote and advertise.NateDrake probably knows about a big third party game coming to Switch and figured it would only be announced in a Nintendo Direct

lol that is an odd expectation to have.
Congratulations on the anniversary!Yeah, we're just a little busy with the holidays atm. I'm back on the 28th but tomorrow is my 10 year anniversary with my partner
Mario Golf: Intergalactic Tour; coming July 2020.Maybe we'll get Rayman in space starting off this next decade on a good note.
I'm just channeling my inner Arlo.
It wasn't, they just haven't needed it. That said September's Direct ending in a Xenoblade Remaster and starting with a third party port were definitely mini-tier.Maybe its a new Nintendo Direct Mini
Kinda weird how that format was abandoned
I'm so sold it's not even funny.Nintendo announces they're done with Directs for the next decade and will instead just stream Tropical Freeze every other month
So you haven't heard anything about Halo on Switch?
Maybe. I think Nate knows more about a third party game than first party game, but it's possible it could be first party related.I think it more implies of a game releasing in Feb - a retail game, which Ninty needs a month of time to promote and advertise.
