September is fast approaching. That means we will start hallucinating the games that may appear in the Direct. Aside from release dates for Ocarina, Duskbloods, and Xenoblade, what the FUCK do you want to see out of it?Me? I want Astral Chain 2
>>746056505I predict no September general direct, maybe a Zelda presentation and a partner showcase, but I genuinely think they have nothing cooking that we don't already know about.
New Punch OutNew Kid IcarusSwitch 2 Kirby Planet Robobot
let me save you all the hassle of this entire threadYou're gonna get a dozen retards in here saying "oh i want <this thing>" or "oh i hope they show off <that thing>" nigga these cunts are creatively bankrupt, you're gonna see 60% demakes or demasters, 30% crossplat ports, and 10% something that would be original if it weren't mechanically a sequel to a game released 4 years ago
Leaks already gave away what they're gonna show.
>>746056768what leaks
>>746056768>vagueposting
>>746056845The leaks from like late March or something which gave away Star Fox and OoT remakes before they were announced also announced 2027 3D Mario and new Metroid called Ravenous.
>>746056505Huh, no Sept Direct on 2024.
>>746056505It'll be in October though
It better be good after rising the console price
>>746056505Oot and maybe Duskbloods direct.That's what i expect.
>>746056505this year TGS is the 30th anniversary of the event, I feels like many japanese developers might end up waiting for it for game announcements and updates instead of direct
>>746057982considering how much hype nintendo's own direct carries, i dont think they'll waste a direct opportunity for TGS. maybe they'll show at TGS and rerun some trailers
>>746056505They have a lot to announce about Pokemon Wind and Waves. Just dropping a release date for early 2027 would be enough to sell a lot of consoles over Christmas.
>>746057131whatever happened there ?
>>746058390>early 2027lolWe already know it's going to be holiday 2027
>>7460565053 major things>New Megaman 12 trailer>Pikmin 5>Wonder 2 or new 3D Mario tease.0 fucking cozy games from Nintendo themselves, i'm so burned out of them
>>746058234Also japan is one of their smallest markets. Its big but nowhere near as big as EU or NA markets.
>>746058390>this dude’s excited that the release date for $80 shovelware is gonna help move consoles. Tendies always get mad when you call them cultists but never, ever fucking deny it.
>>746057131>inb4 doomers use that as an excuse to not shut up about the possibility of Nintendo skipping a September 2026 Direct.
>>746056505We are still 2 weeks away from the Direct. There’s no need for a thread.>>746056674Nigga, they need to lay out their plans for Q1 of next year. They only have Xenoblade Genesis and Pokemon announced for 2027 and neither of them are Q1
>>746061156>he thinks a new Pokémon won't move consoles
>>746056505Astral Chain 2 is an elite pick. A S2 patch for the first game would be sick too. The only other announcement I want that is reasonable to expect is Metroid 6/RavenousI also want and am expecting a Zelda 40th section where they go in depth into Ocarina and the movie, and the special edition console of course
>>746061156How do you suss excitement from text? I can suss the seethe from yours, though.
>>746056505We're going to get a full cast announcement for the LoZ movie, as well as a trailer.I want Mario Kart World DK-themed DLC.
>>746058465>holidaythere's no fucking chance it's aiming for holiday 2027 lol. if they were, they would have announced it on Pokemon day 2027, not 2 years in advance. every game since XY had 6-11 months between reveal and release with the sole exception of legends ZA being announced on pokemon day 2024 but that was just an announcement of the game rather an actual reveal. the actual in-game look didnt show up until pokemon day 2025 and the time between actual reveal and release was 7.5 months. So there's no chance wind and waves being fully revealed releasing THAT late into 2027>>746061119 japan is actually the single biggest country supporting the switch 2 right now. japan alone is as big as NA or bigger in some instances.
There will still be zero reason to actually own a Switch 2
>>746061539Gross, some poor subhuman zoomer responded to me. Go get drafted lil neph.
SMTVI will be revealed
>>746056505Seems about the right time to tease 3D MarioOoT gameplay, followed by an announcement of a Zelda 40th Direct a week or month later. Zelda movie sneak peak, Wind Waker and/or Twilight Princess HD announced and Zelda edition Switch 2Hoenn gen 3 coming to NSOA ton of shitty third party games no one asked forA ton of last gen portsMaybe Pikmin 4 Switch 2 EditionN64 and GCN updateSounds like enough to take from from Q4 to end of Q1.
