Why Kirby? It already has a home with HAL Labs.

Stuff like Wario Land or even Kid Icarus make some sense because no one else is making them.

There have been Kirby games made by Flagship and Good Feel, but yes, I don't think Kirby is high on the list.

There is some private vetting, but it hasn't been a guarantee.

I do think Zhuge or whoever should come on and clarify on whether or not it's a Nintendo IP being given to Wayforward, without giving away too much.

It's nice sometimes when people don't know/spell it out weeks in advance. I'm just happy we get a nice surprise stream tomorrow without a huge buildup or "managed/unmanaged expectations"

I'm really suspecting that it may be a Konami IP. They seem to prefer announcing their revivals with Nintendo (Super Bomberman R and Contra: Rogue Corps).

I could go for a 2D Castlevania. Would be amazing, but I'm not expecting it to be anything major. Can't get my hopes up lol

Shit I forgot Mummy Demastered was from them too. Umm maybe a Metroid from them wouldn't be a bad idea actually.
I'd still prefer Mercury Steam to be on that project tho.

Startropics is deader than Eternal Darkness. Why are people expecting it to be revived? There were two games and neither set the world on fire. It's dead.

Kelios works on/runs a French Pokemon website. They also got the day and date of the March 26th Direct a month before release. They likely has been vetted privately.

They don't have the "insider" history other real ones here do

I've been wanting a new 2D Kid Icarus for a while now and Wayforward would be a great fit.

Wayforward is horny and I don't care for Shantae as a concept but hand drawn Metroid sounds good.

It's obviously a new Mario clash for the Virtual Boy 2

Okay, that's amazing., I usually tune out after the E3 Direct and just catch any highlights on resetera. I guess I need to start tuning in to them going forward. Definitely will tomorrow!

You tune out on the best part of E3 each year? You deliberately miss DAYS of Treehouse footage each and every single year?

What are you even doing?!

I'm hoping to hear more news about the Breath of the Wild sequel, on top of indie game announcements.

If there are some surprises in-store, then it would be welcomed, but I'm not getting my hopes up.

There's no guarantee that it's a nintendo IP, just a franchise that WayForward hasn't worked on previously. But being a Nintendo Stream it seems fairly likely.

wayforward specializes in 2D side scrollers.
So:

Mario (SMB, World, Land, Peach, Wario)
Zelda (II)
Metroid
Kid Icarus
Anything I'm missing?

I'd be down for all of these, but a new Mario Land would be neat

Intriguing, but if a Direct is on the horizon I'm not sure how much should be expected here. Metroid seems too high profile (and unlikely it won't be Mercury Steam working on it). I like the thought of a Wario Land game though, and the comments about a Zelda possibility seem interesting. I haven't played any of WayForward's games so I am not sure what to expect quality-wise either but it seems like Shantae and Bloodstained are well liked.

I mean, I'm stupid enough to believe in Metroid, but don't have guts to even think about Wario Land.
If it's a new IP I won't complain btw.

Metroid 2D is not really higher profile than Wario Land. Didn't they announce Samus Returns in a Treehouse?

I'm not sure if this being an NoA-specific event is a good sign for this announcement.

The original Kelios tweet mentioned that there's a "Nintendo event" happening in July. But it didn't say it's a Nintendo Direct in July. This Treehouse Live is probably that "Nintendo event".

So we still won't get any Directs.

If it's not a Nintendo Ip(which seems more likely, could be anything but something dormant like Warioland, Kid Icarus, Advance Wars, F-Zero spin-off) it could be a situation where Nintendo partnered with them and say Konami(like Bomberman), could open things up to say Goemon

Seemed like the tweet posted in this thread would indicate this is separate from what he was mentioning as a Nintendo direct later this month.
