As a spring title, shouldn't Fire Emblem Three Houses be out before E3? It is about time we hear something about it (though I suspect a delay to second half of the year so that Nintendo has a core game this christmas to supplement Animal Crossing and Pokémon, unfortunately).

ME: "Finally a Nintendo direct that's not going to be 80% Smash"
Nintendo: "Welcome to this 35min Nintendo direct. Now lets have a 30 min look at every detail of an upcoming SMASH ULTIMATE update".

Seriously though sounds like the rumour/leak of the other day had some truth to it. Hopefully there's some interesting announcements

So, I guess this is gonna be the Direct that gives us info on Three Houses gameplay and most likely where they drop a sexy trailer for it. Can't wait!

you.
Remember when I said that this
fucking Resetera user
that Gamexplain reported on about the leak would be wrong? Guess what, I feel ripped off now.

No mention of 3DS anywhere in the announcement! I can't be the only one who quickly skimmed for those 3 characters...

All about dat Switch. Gimme games!

I love the 3DS, but I'm glad Nintendo isn't putting the spotlight on it anymore during these directs.

Now I'm just curious which one you're referring to. There are multiple sources from "there" who dropped details.

About freaking damn time, Nintendo. Let’s hope that this rumor regarding Pikmin 3 Port/Pikmin 4 is also true and I’ll be so happy.

Also, 35 minutes of Switch only announcements ?! FUCK YES. Thank goodness they gave up on the 3DS, just give it a well deserved rest and pave the way for the future.

Come on Ninty, you have all the cards to either win or lose 2019 for me, please don’t you DARE fuck this up.

Hmm, wonder why this date.

I hope they show something about this new pokemon at least. I'm not confident about this new gen, but who knows. As long it doesnt looks like that new GF title, it should do fine. If anything, my expectations are low.

But I have the impression it will end up being more Smash Bros stuff.

I'm referring to the user who said that the 13 would be the lucky number.

Oh yes... that one. While I share your sentiment, I wouldn't have bet against him after a remark like that. Isn't his reputation even better than a certain arcade girl over there??

...... I still hope they continue with 3DS...

I know... it's dead...

Literally all they need to do is make sure that their future releases to 3DS are compatible with Switch. That's all that matters. No one would cry about 3DS titles being announced. They took the pains of putting Wii and Wii U titles on 3DS, so why not offer enhanced versions of games like Samus Returns on Switch? It's that simple.

Checking reddit and other forums, the rumored games are the following:

Metroid Prime Trilogy
Pikmin 3
Super Mario Maker 2
Box Boy
A 2D Zelda

10pm UK time? That's great!

Hope that TOWN gets more news and hoping for a few more surprises!

It sucks that the Direct will air while I’ll still be in college :messenger_loudly_crying:

But still, in France, we’ll get to see it at 15:00, and that’s already better than having to air it at midnight :messenger_grinning:

Don't worry. It will air at 11pm in France! ET and PT are the American Time Zones. :)

23:00 CET. Not that I didn't expect otherwise... Would've been nice to have it at 20:00. However, FUCKING FINALLY A NEW DIRECT! I HAVE BEEN WAITING!

Also nice to see that it will include Fire Emblem. So that game is a lock for spring, then? (Probably an April release?).

Metroid Prime Trilogy would be pretty awesome. I've only played through about 50% of the first game and would def be interested in playing through the others.

Same, although I never got the chance to play a Metroid Prime game before, I think it would be a great opportunity to set up new and old players to the Metroid Prime series while waiting for the next mainline game to come out.

Finally. And about time. I was expecting one presentation on January. But it is okay.

I am very happy that they will show the new Fire Emblem, and I hope that they also inform the release date. And I hope that the release date of the new Fire Emblem is late April, first week of may, golden week on Japan. Daemon X Machina would be also good, if they share some news, and a release date too.

Maybe the rumored Metroid Prime Trilogy : We are so sorry for postponing Prime 4 Edition, is a real. The same goes for the rumores Star Fox project made by Retro is not canned cancelled.

Probably they will announce a few Wii U ports. And it would be great if the gave a second chance to The Wonderful 101 or redo Star Fox Zero, with traditional controllers...

I am also curious to see if there would be some third party surprises, good ones like Doom and so on, not like RE 7 Cloud edition... and a release date for Dragon Quest Xi would be neat.

They have to show either Animal Crossing or Pokémon after the whole Metroid fiasco. They have to. Anything else after that is going to be a bonus.

The insiders are the only redeeming part of ResetERA TBH. I still lurk that place every so often just to hear what they have to say.

Yeah apart from that, GAF is, and will always be way better than that ERA dumpfire, period.

Remember when GAF was the go-to source for insider info? Well, now its the Liberal SJW echo-chamber that's go-to source... unfortunately.

EDIT: Please don't reply to this and derail the thread, let's stay on task here.

Right. I believe the theory that Nintendo was left scrambling after the Metroid Prime 180º, so it's going to be really interesting to see what they've got.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
Holding my breath for the

"Final Fantasy VII comes to Nintendo Switch... later today!"

Mods, if ever you’re reading this and if this thread ends up ( hopefully not ) derailing, remember :

Just sayin’ that I have nothing to do with all this.

Hoping that surprise announcement and *RELEASE* of Metroid Prime Trilogy Remastered for Switch happens!

There's pretty strong rumors Nintendo will touch on the disappointment they caused by having to re-start
Metroid Prime 4 development and to help *ease* the sting, will announce the Trilogy tomorrow which will
be available immediately via the eShop. These rumors came from the same people who have a solid track
record and correctly predicted this direct as well as others. /Fingers crossed

I admire you for setting the bar so high. I'm gonna try and stay grounded here.
 
Meh. I'm good. I feel like I've got all the games I need and wanting more would just be excessive. There's only so many hours in the day that I can play and releasing more great games doesn't mean I have more time to play them. It just means I need to be more selective about how I spend my time. And...

Nah, fuck that. Gimme Fire Emblem!!!

I'm just hoping for Fire Emblem to be not-garbage like Fire Emblem Fates, but the 'Three Houses' subtitle leads me to believe they will be attempting the 3-way split once again.

My personal guess, but shouldn't we expect a new character reveal for the expansion pass of Smash Bros?
When is it due?
