>>719580603Yeah with with dev times ballooning across the industry and modern Nintendo's conservative, minimal-reveal-to-release strategy, there not much reason to expect anything truly mindblowingly special. 2026's lineup is likely to be more bare than people are expecting. And what's there is likely to have very short reveal-to-release windows, ala DKB. Only the biggest sellers (Zelda, Animal Crossing) will get more than a couple months lead time.The days of huge E3 blowouts are long gone. Expect minimal gay shit instead.

>>719580069>Speculation for marketingChrist
>>719580069>september 11thNoa would never greenlight this
Why the fuck would nintendo be retarded enough to plan a direct for 9/11?
>>719584458>>719584587The one thing Nintendo hates more than their fans are their American fans. Bunch of pay piggy goyim.
>>719584587They released Mario Maker 1 on 9/11. No one but burgerclaps care about your retarded """holiday""".
>>719580069Tendies are fucking embarrassing.
>>719581397It was about the "Switch Pro" which totally existed and wasn't complete bullshit. Not the Switch 2
>>719580069>The first big General Direct of the Switch 2 Era.that's really embarassing when the system has been out for months and we still have no idea what's coming
>>719580069lol you're waiting for February
>>719586716Nintendo's modern marketing strategy are doing reveals as-late-as-humanly-possible. Games like MKW and DKB had 3 month reveal-to-release windows.It's boring as fuck, but it's what they do now. Long gone are the days of E3 blowouts.
>>719587086>Long gone are the days of E3 blowoutsLong conferences with CG trailers and CEOs talking about sports sports sports and fake gameplay demos for games that never came out. Truly epic.
>>719580069New BombermanIt would fit the holiday
>>719587495E3 at its worse was better than this shitE3 at its best was WAY better than this shit
>>719587086Their modern strategy is to make low cost indie games and charge $70-$80 for them. And charge for performance patches as well.

>>719588326I rewatched Nintendo's E3 2006 and 2007 shows recently. They're still great and way better than any modern Direct.You are fucking retarded, kill yourself faggot
