Did the person that leaked the date mention Pokémon at all?

I’m thinking that if Pokémon is in this direct, then it’ll just be a small teaser (titles, silhouettes) and they’ll say to tune in for that event later this month for a full reveal.

Nintendo: 'I pleasure to announce a pokemon title this year for 3DS'.

Trucker, the DOT takes a dim view of 80,000 pounds tearing down the highway with the driver watching their phone.:messenger_grimmacing_

Listen, we're smack in the middle of late stage capitalism. There's nothing wrong with running a few people over, or ramming a few cars off the road to watch product information about your videogames. They'll understand.

I'm hoping for some gamecube ports and the announcement of snes games with future n64 titles too.

Not before mario maker 2 is announced obviously.

Oh and waluigi for smash!

I have no idea what they're gonna announce, but I hope it's something cool. Maybe a date for Fate/Extella Link?! A release date for Daemon X Machina? I don't care too much about Fire Emblem since they're going with the enemies on the field thing, though. I hope we do get a cool third party game announced as well.

Correct me if I am wrong, but even before the Switch launched didn't they say they were working on porting it over? Quite surprised they haven't.
They are? Ok cool. I missed that info. Didn't get into Switch info until lately when I got my nieces a Switch for Christmas. Always looking to help pad their game library.

As important as this direct is,it's hardly make or break time imho,Nintendo have many chances to reveal more things throughout the year.
You seriously think Nintendo is gonna reveal new things at E3 which will be avaliable later this year?

Does anyone expect any possible Pikmin announcements?

It's possible. Didn't they say Pikimi 4 was done or something some time ago? I wonder why they'd sit on the game for this long if it has been done. Either way, we nave no idea, but no reason why it can't be announced.

Well, I don't know for sure which is why I was asking. I thought at least in one interview someone did when the Switch was still known as the NX they said they were looking into it.

Think this was Returns, and this is not something they will be able to do again

Why, exactly?

I mean, nobody knows what Retro’s really been up to between finishing Tropical Freeze five years ago and taking over development of Prime 4 last month.

Retro having worked on a 2D platformer for the last 5 years? Makes no sense.

At this point I'll be excited if they just bring back the gifting option in the eshop.

I'm in for 2.5 D Zelda.

Metroid Prime collection.

SNES games on Nintendo online.

An extensive look into Yoshi.
An extensive Fire Emblem section.
Daemon x Machina gameplay section.
Luigi’s Mansion 3 gameplay section.
One new Wii U port - Pikmin 3 or SMM DX
Super Smash Bros Joker gameplay.
Animal Crossing more tease.

That’s my expectation for the Direct.

Square-Enix's Shinji Hashimoto has retweeted the Direct annoucement. These retweets don't always mean much, but it's very possible something from Square-Enix will feature in this Direct. More Final Fantasy release dates? Mana Collection to west? Square-Enix rep in Smash? Dragon Quest XI? There are multiple possibilities.

Them choosing pikmin 3 over Super Mario 3D World would be just stupid. They can refine it and add stuff to it. Mario will sell many more than pikmin.

There won't be major announcements, the most the only thing I expect is Metroid trilogy, but Ninty Always does what I don't expect so let's see :S

Funny thing came into my mind:

Fire Emblem: Three houses
Pikmin 3
Metroid prime trilogy
Luigi’s Mansion 3
Bayonetta 3
Spyro Trilogy
Assassin’s creed 3 Remaster
Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3

The direct duration will be 35mins

The 3 direct.

Pikmin, Metroid and Luigis Mansion alone would make me extremely happy...
I'm pretty excited about it but sadly my 6 year old is testing for his yellow belt right as this event starts, so I'll be fighting myself not to break out my phone for the entire thing.

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

Yeah. Smash is just super boring and overrated to me, They should just have Smash direct for it and leave other games alone.

So you’re saying that Half-Life 3 confirmed to be

Epic Store

exclusive?

This will be Erdrick in Smash and a 5-second vid of DQXI S

My best guesstimates: (I'll always put Pilot Wings, F-Zero and Wave Race in because damn it, we need those!)

-Super Mario 64 Switch Remastered
-Super Mario Maker Switch
-Super Mario Galaxy 1 and 2 Remastered Collection
-Parasite Eve Remastered
-Apex Legends(live on eshop tonight)
-Metroid Prime Trilogy(live on eshop tonight)
-Zelda: Birth of the Wild(2D overhead prequel to Breath of the Wild)
-Pilot Wings Switch
-Wave Race Switch
-F-Zero Switch


While I'd love to see the big N make hardware announcements, I now doubt we'll get any before E3 this year. Specifically the Switch Mini and *possibly* Pro.
