[TheGreatMightyPoo]

Shakedown Hawaii please.

 

[Andyliini]

Well, close enough for a Direct for August then. Last one wass alright, so I'll watch this if it airs when I'm awake. I'm too lazy to check out when it will air in Europe, as NoE has not retweeted this.

 

[Brazil]

Give me Wargroove and Hollow Knight release dates!

 

[GinoFelino]

I mean, it's a bunch of games they're showing off while it's still summer, so I'm not sure where the hang-up is coming from.

Agree, don't agree, it's fine

I think Nintendo should've done this sooner, regardless of what season they're naming it after

Exactly. Apparently that's hard to grasp.

Yes it's basically rocket science

 

[backflip10019]

More on Golf Story please! It still a summer game right?

It's supposed to be a summer game, but not looking like it.

 

[phanphare]

fuck yes!

hopefully the weekly indie drops increase in quality from here on out

 

[jariw]

Give me Wargroove and Hollow Knight release dates!

Wargroove is delayed to 2018, according to Chucklefish.

 

[RedToad64]

Yooka Laylee, Wargroove, and Rocket League please

Wargroove was delayed to 2018.

 

[Diddy Kong]

Bayonetta Switch don't @ me lmao
/s


A Yooka-Laylee release date would be sweet.

 

[13ruce]

Give me Wargroove and Hollow Knight release dates!

Delayed to early 2018

 

[Plinko]

Tuning in for:

Stardew Valley
Rocket League
Hollow Knight
Golf Story
Steamworld Dig 2

 

[J@hranimo]

This is cool and all

But was hoping for a full ND, with release dates for FE Warriors in NA it comes out in a month in Japan and less then two months in Europe

Also Xenoblade 2, Rocket league and Skyrim release dates

I think we're getting the traditional Nintendo Direct next month. Luckily next month is around the corner

 

[nickerous]

I need Steamworld Dig 2....like now. Hopefully it comes out 8/31.

 

[Plum]

Agree, don't agree, it's fine

I think Nintendo should've done this sooner, regardless of what season they're naming it after

So you wanted Nintendo to do it earlier and tried to make that idra rational by throwing in factually wrong information about seasons? OK.

 

[Jonneh3003]

 

[Aostia]

I liked the last one quite a bit. Let's go.

Totally
I just hope there will be more focus on games coming within the end of the year than on games too far away

 

[jariw]

Actually, based on Brjann's comment ("very very very soon"), that's a possibility!

 

[DeuceGamer]

Hopefully we get some solid dates for some of the big indies we heard about in the previous Nindie direct.

I also wish it was a regular Direct so we could get dates on some of the Fall/Holiday titles we are still missing, but it's probably best to let the indies have their own event so they aren't overshadowed.

 

[bounchfx]

hype rising

the nindies are the most exciting part of the system for me, right behind mario odyssey

i'd say virtual console but we know fuck all about what's happening there for now

 

[FearMyWrench]

Steamworld Dig 2 release date please!!!

 

[cw_sasuke]

Hey thanks a lot weather men

You don't think it's silly calling it a Summer Showcase when it's end of summer and it's full of games that won't release in the summer?

Right

That was my point

Now get back to checking your calendars

Okay...now take a chill pill.

I dont know if you own a Switch but they have been releasing Switch Indie titles all summer week per week. The name of the event isnt that important.

 

[Zukkoyaki]

More Steamworld in my veins

 

[GinoFelino]

So you wanted Nintendo to do it earlier and tried to make that idra rational by throwing in factually wrong information about seasons? OK.

Nope, two different points

I think it's silly to call it a summer showcase in this context. Just call it a showcase. Also, they should've done it sooner

Okay...now take a chill pill.

I dont know if you own a Switch but they have been releasing Switch Indie titles all summer week per week. The name of the event isnt that important.

I'm not being serious

It's not important, I just thought it was silly and in response many people were enticed to inform me it's August, which, well, thanks for that

 

[CharminUltra]

 

[lord_of_flood]

Hopefully we get a Hollow Knight release date and more info on Runner 3. Also in for any surprises.

 

[Vic]

Ahhhhhh yis.

 

[JonnyDBrit]

Wonder what surprises there'll be.

I do like that Nindies showcases are seemingly becoming a fixture of Directs now.

 

[Kingpin Rogers]

Gungeon! Please!

 

[Sylverstone14]

A name's a name, no matter the silliness.

Most of us know how Nintendo and the concept of seasons don't match up that well.

 

[GodfatherX]

Shakedown Hawaii
Golf Story
Hollow Knight
Owlboy - lol we can dream
Secrets of Grindea - while I am making unlikely list


and a new left joy - con with a traditional d-pad

 

[Godzilla's Left Toe]

Cool

 

[foxuzamaki]

Indies still getting dat Nintendo love

 

[Chase17]

Hoping for Golf Story, Hollow Knight, and Stardew dates.

 

[balladofwindfishes]

Wonder if they'd announce the Binding of Isaac Afterbirth+ patch at this. It's supposed to be coming soon, and should be bug fixes + some community content from the PC workshop, which seems like enough to announce.

 

[foxuzamaki]

Literally as I go in to work, that sucks so much dick

 

[tebunker]

More on Golf Story please! It still a summer game right?

Oh shit I totally forgot about this one. I hope its good

 

[NipplesAndToes23]

I don't know why I continue to keep up with video game news and post here. I haven't had money to buy video games in years.

 

[SinCityAssassin]

There it is.

 

[BiggNife]

A Switch version of Assault Android Cactus that adds Quote as a playable character is something I would totally be down for

 

[Equanimity]

I hope they announce the release dates for Owlboy and Hollow Knight.

 

[Fireblend]

HOLLOW KNIGHT PLEAAASEEE

 

[Jaded Alyx]

Well many of us called it, and here it is.

 

[Hades Hotgun]

Summer ends September 20th.

The last day of summer is September 21.

Northern Summer ends on August 31.

Astronomical Summer ends in September.

Humans usually go by the meteorological seasons.

[Scoops]

This is going to be good.

 

[Jo Shishido's Cheeks]

I wonder if any of the games they show actually come out this time...?

 

[Mistouze]

Hollow Knight
Pocket Rumble
Rocket League
Enter the Gungeon
Golf Story
Stardew Valley

Gimme the release dates !

 

[Aostia]

Oh crap, I did hear that there was going to be a direct this week but I wasn't expecting a Nindies showcase.

Probably more Indies to be shown here than "big publisher" third party games?

 

[Daphnes Nohansen Hyrule]

Golf Story Release Date

It's time.

 

[BiggNife]

Basically all I want out of this is "We finally have a release date for Hollow Knight...and it's today."

I've been fighting off the urge to buy the PC version for months

 

[jariw]

I wonder if any of the games they show actually come out this time...?

The previous Nindie direct was about 2017 nindies. Wargroove is the only game that I know of that will fail ATM.
