DK double pack, Metroid Prime triple pack pls thnx
I really want a new Wave Race, new 1080, and a new F-Zero.
No one can stop me from dreaming.

Exactly, I'd say the best way to think of it is even if there's no formal release date yet, I don't think it's unbelievable to say they're internally hoping MP4 can make it out by next year.
Probably. I can't imagine there's anything else 1st party wise, and Blizzcon is still to come later this year.

Looks like further confirmation and probably the bigger news from that quote IMO.
I don't expect any more big titles this year. It's the first year. Switch already has an insane amount of great titles for a first year (the only area where it lacks severely is the usual army of multiplatform filler). Anything that's left to be announced for 2017 is going to be something small and niche and generally not worth building any sort of hype for, at least in Nintendo's opinion.

Nintendo announces new things with practically every Direct, this is unsurprising.
Let's not break Switch's great streak with some mediocre water racing game.
Spring man is also the favorite character of the producer and the art director.

I still think the Blizzard thing is false.
But anyway hopefully something cool.

Probably another Wii U port ( or maybe 3ds or Wii) and some extra 3rd party stuff.

Why are people assuming he's talking about Nintendo games? I can bet he's talking about third party indie titles

Their general meeting of shareholders is June 29. There isn't usually a presentation there, but there will be a Q&A, which assuredly won't announce any specific new titles but might at least explicitly confirm whether or not there are unannounced first-party retail releases coming this calendar year.
Their Q1 financial results are released July 26, but there's almost never a presentation or Q&A for that, as that's the only quarter not tied to any financial milestone. (The last exception was in 2011, as that's when the emergency post-launch 3DS price cut was announced.)
In any case, we'll probably have to wait for the next Direct for more concrete news.
Wario World 2, please.
Reading all the responses and I'm sitting at my computer thinking: "No one is going to dare mention anything related to Monster Hunter?"
Bare in mind, that I'm planning on getting World on Xbox One when it comes out next year, so this isn't grieving over a lack of an announcement at E3 this year. The thing though is with the announcement of no MHXX to be made "At this time," that could mean that before we do reach the end of the year, we could get an announcement. If anything else, I'd like to think that if the Switch isn't going to get World, at least MHXX would be a good consolation (not to mention it is hunting anywhere you go which is what people have been hoping for since the Switch first got announced).
We'll see what happens, but chances are we might not see it this year (unless between August 25th to the end of the year, Nintendo of America decided to pull a fast one on us).

Retro has been working on a Switch Donkey Kong TF port for four years, almost done!
I was surprised at the lack of indie announcements and release date confirmations too really. AAA third party support is unsurprising and will probably take a long while if any come over to the system.
We had a user with Capcom insights (who also revealed details about MH Worlds before the unveiling) say that it's not coming over. However, he also said that a brand-new MH for Switch is in development.

Yeah, everything on that leak happened except that

I paid good money for this Dynex!
Even if it's just re-releases, chances are I'd be into it.
Lol if you think a brand new Smash game would be out by Christmas 2018. Smash was supported with DLC up until early 2016 with large amounts of its content spread over two consoles with a gigantic roster. Nintendo's not going to drop all that especially when Smash 4 on Wii U sold like crap because lack of install base. Unless they use the majority of Smash 4 as a base for Smash 5 I don't see a new Smash game coming until 2019 at the very earliest and I'm more inclined to believe 2020.
I just can't really imagine a new Smash being that different compared to 4. Just add stages and characters, maybe even new modes.
Plus, I want Sakurai to work on something other than Smash.

Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage

And it would be awesome if for some reason they produced a new Gyromite with the same, but updated soundtrack.

Has there been any news on that? Looks fun

That leak was specifically for E3 though... So if a Blizzard title wasn't announced at E3 why would he have known/told us about it?

A Pilotwings Resort sequel would be great. Put in some kind of multiplayer and obviously online leaderboards.
True
Both please.

Thread really makes me miss all those Smash updates. The glorious Twinelle DLC trailer in my head will be EPIC!

Really doubt they care about EVO.
I'm pretty sure Smash would be announced in a proper Direct or something.

Bangai-O would be very cool. Sin & Punishment 3 would be very cool. Starfox game developed by them would be very cool. Mischief Makers 2 would be very, very cool. An exciting new IP from them would be a miracle. But seriously, any game from them would make me smile, I miss them and their fun games.
