Well I guess there is some truths to the April 1st Nintendo Direct rumors. How close the 4chain rumors are though I guess we will see tomorrow.

Is it okay to post the rumored direct details here?

Oh, my. I missed that. It sounds kinda true-ish, but it's hard to believe there would be such a full leak. They did a good job with it if it's fake but with Paper Mario in there I don't want to get my hopes up that it's real. (I also think it's unlikely to be a big enough title to be their big Holiday 2015 title, but maybe in conjunction with other titles release in H2 2015 it would be enough. But here I go with the wishful thinking, lol.)

Nintendo seriously couldn't have waited one day to release a Direct? Now there's going to be some April Fool's shenanigans.

Also, 6pm EST? I might be missing this one due to driving home from work and/or stuck in traffic.

Remember how we said that Zelda wouldn't make it to E3? Well, here's everything we wanted to show then, right here on this Nintendo Direct!

...April's fools you fools!

They explicitly state in the American ad that it's not a joke and in Europe it takes place on April 2.

I expect:

A big showing from Splatoon and Yoshi Woolly World.
Xenoblade Chronicles X release date and first English game-play.
Smash DLC announcement (similar to how mario kart was done) and mew two released after the direct if you have both games registered or a preorder bonus for preordering both DLC packs.
Some Fire Emblem gameplay/ trailer.
Maybe some announcement of a new fall game (mario game maybe)

As a gentle reminder: Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games was announced just a couple of days before April Fools Day, and lots of people weren't quite sure if they should believe it!

Yep, a crazy unthinkable crossover is just the kind of thing they'd drop tomorrow.

Bayonetta X DMC here we go!
 
Fire embleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeem haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

(Metroid announced, mark my words)

Mario Kart and Smash DLC
Splatoon
Xenoblade X
Xenoblade 3D
Affordable Space Adventures
Something else 3DS, maybe Fire Emblem or Youkai Watch
New round of Wii games on the eshop
Yoshi
Maybe some kind of surprise, but honestly there's a lot to show without one and they might be saving those for E3.

Aostia mon ami this is way too conservative. Where your hype at? It's time for that third game in the Oracle trilogy, developed by Capcom! ;)

lol is this your first Zeda launch? They always get delayed.

I know, I know. I was just kidding. Game's only gonna be better because of it as far as I'm concerned anyway.

I still want TP HD though

But in all seriousness I'm kind of hoping we get a Rhythm Heaven localization announcement? Then again they could have just done that alongside the Japanese announcement if they were planning to do so anytime soon. :l
 
Finally!

Let's see...

Splatoon trailer, amiibo
MK8 DLC
Xenoblade X details
Yoshi's Woolly World trailer
Mario Maker details
Fire Emblem if details
Rhythm Heaven 3DS trailer
Mewtwo Smash DLC trailer
At least one new game reveal- preferably a big holiday Wii U game to fill the Zelda gap, but the 3DS schedule's looking a little barren.
