Maybe they'll finally remember that they haven't shown SMTV yet.
It's up to Atlus to send the trailer and new info when it's ready

Bravely Second? Already out years ago.
Bravely Third.
So what do we reckon here?
I wonder if Nintendo have figured out that having these Directs with multiple announcements causes people to hold off on buying games because they are waiting for that "favorite" one that was announced about 6 months ago.
How many times have you read people saying they are holding off on getting a Switch until Game X is released?
Seems to me that these full 25 minute adverts for a single game that are coming up very soon would have the effect of focusing hype onto one particular title and maybe giving that title a substantial sales boost?
Are people more likely to buy Animal Crossing now when it's the only show in town compared to when they also want to hit us with teasers for about 20 new games that are coming up.
Directs are obviously good for fans but I wonder how effective they are at getting actual sales.
Well, that sabiwabi person, who leaked information last year to Nintendo's dismay has deleted his twitter account (due to the persons' personal situation).
Apparently he said the general Direct was surely going to happen this month, now he feels it may not happen so he deleted the account fearing backlash.
In fairness I don't understand why people put so much faith in leakers words, often they clearly have no inside information, it's just guessing game so you could be right or wrong that way: Nintendo is not that predictable.
To be fair, he had a track record of leaks that were proven to be 100% correct, and he called fake leakers out on twitter as well. It was Zippo, who likewise didn't release a leak that was proven fake, who said there were two Nintendo Directs this month. And it may turn out to be that way (next week), or there has been a change in planning, or there may have been a misunderstanding. Who knows?
And Sabi leaving twitter was due to a difficult situation with one of the people close to him, so unless he's a bastard who used this close person to cover up lies, I have to trust his word for it.

I've done a complete 180 on this game after the Direct.
Still not happy about the save situation. What if I want to buy a new Switch?
FC: SW-4100-9168-1923
So this is what 2020 looks like, huh?Then buy a new Switch, call up support, and get your save file moved. They say you can do it once, but I bet they will take it on a case-by-case basis.
So this is what 2020 looks like, huh?
Thats Nintendo for you Mr.Nicktendo.So this is what 2020 looks like, huh?
Yeah yeah yeahA bit of honesty: I'm really beginning to believe that Nintendo is just really bad at using the cloud. They've hired lots of cloud engineers, but you can only go as far as you can get the heads of Nintendo Japan to understand. This is more evident in their cloud saves feature where some of their biggest releases that would most logically benefit from it are not even compatible with it.... Poor design. Poor foresight. Poor management.

I still remember when Iwata went as far to say online gaming was just a fad back in 04, as if it was just some new thing. Seems like Nintendo will always be behind the curve when it comes to online gaming.Nintendo is bad in everything when it comes to online and thats nothing new. They’re ages behind
I don’t really understand what they’re missing. They literally got EVERYTHING to make a better online experience and up to date but I noticed this is all the Japanese struggle with.I still remember when Iwata went as far to say online gaming was just a fad back in 04, as if it was just some new thing.

I really don't get it either. The blueprint to a feature rich online network is out there, not sure why it's still such a struggle.I don’t really understand what they’re missing.

Don’t make start talking about the lag when playing online. Its so weird how damn random it isI really don't get it either. The blueprint to a feature rich online network is out there, not sure why it's still such a struggle.
Even things like Mario Party still not having online private matches baffles me.
Haha yeah that's exactly why I put down Smash online and never bothered with it again. Although I've never had an issue with Mario Kart for some reason. Seems to run the smoothest out of all Nintendo games.Don’t make start talking about the lag when playing online. Its so weird how damn random it is
Suddenly I’m playing against a Japanese or American? Like how the hell does that happen when I have plenty of others closer to me?
Thats why every game they have its online is dead real quickHaha yeah that's exactly why I put down Smash online and never bothered with it again. Although I've never had an issue with Mario Kart for some reason. Seems to run the smoothest out of all Nintendo games.
In my life I have never seen a sensible Nintendo fanboy. Hats off to you good sirI could accept calling Nintendo hotline in 1994 when I needed help to beat Zelda. I could, just about, accept calling Nintendo in 2007 when my Wii broke. And 13 years later, when the internet is a thing and memory cards have been around for some 25 years, Nintendo’s solution is “hey, give us a call, but please understand and make sure you have the online subscription service.” Why do I need an online subscription service to transfer a local save file from a console I own to a new console I just bought? I’m €200 down and they’re asking me to call Germany to solve my problem. I don’t even have a landline It’s current year, guys.
It boggles the mind.
You would have thought someone, somewhere, concept stage, design stage, production stage, anywhere would have said “so about those save files...” But, nope. Typical Nintendo. Ignore the problem and then throw out a casual “hey fuck you buddy, give me your money.”
“We’re working on a solution” is unacceptable a month away from launch and with TWO new systems dropping in the next month.
Common sense is what Nintendon’t have.
Will accept tomorrow. Im in bed and Switch in dockI sent a friend request to you guys.

I haven’t tried NES or SNES games online yet. How well do they work?
Ah shit, I have it set to “best friends only”.I have only played a couple but it was good, and damn you for being private so I can’t creep on your switch gaming habits. But request accepted
Ah shit, I have it set to “best friends only”.
I’ll add you to best friends when I’m next on my Switch. Then you can tell me I game too much, lol. I have a very flexible work environment and Switch is perfect for that situation, so I’m on it a lot.

Nah, never heard of it.Are there any Rumors about a Metroid Prime Trilogy for Switch to shorten the waiting time till MP4 ?
Rumour is that it's finished and they're just sitting on it in order to release it during the release build up of MP4.Are there any Rumors about a Metroid Prime Trilogy for Switch to shorten the waiting time till MP4 ?
