Well, now pretty much everything that we know had to be announced except maybe Twilight Princess HD was announced via Twitter and press releases, at this point I am wondering when we will have the Nintendo Direct...

Sometime between now and December 31. The Direct will hopefully focus on the first half of 2016. I don't think there's much more to say about the games coming this year anyway. Maybe another XCX showcase if a Direct happens before December.

There's still Project Guard though...

^I thought the unannounced games for this year was a mis-translation as the offical translation made no mention of it.

I think it was. However Project Guard was still scheduled for a 2015 release, not that it's an "unannounced" game, but it's at least something that we don't know a whole lot about.

I'd imagine that when the Nintendo Direct does come later this year it will show off nothing entirely noteworthy and shall be every bit as disappointing as Nintendo has been in 2015. Does anyone truly thing a 30 minute video will change gaming prospects in the next 5 week?

I might be in the minority here, but probably the worst thing for me personally is if they made online functionality a paid subscription like their predecessors. I wonder if it's only a matter of time, though, with fans demanding more and more out of their current free service. But I don't think I can justify $5 a month, and I prefer paying once for things.

I guess it would depend on how extensive that online service is for me. If they added cross-game chat, or system-wide party chat, with most of their multiplayer games sporting online play and something similar to the free games PSN and Live users get, as well as a proper account system, I wouldn't mind a subscription service.

But if it was just current Nintendo online capabilities with a price tag on it, I'd drop it faster than a hot potato

Their predecessors weren't on paid subscriptions though.

@Nicolai: Yup, free online is a delight for Nintendo systems, but I think it might not be the case in the (near) future. As Nintendo continues to improve their online services, they're certainly going to need extra cash to maintain and improve it more. I don't even like to think about paying for online (when I get my PS4, I'll likely just be a single-player guy) I mean, can you imagine trying to hop into a match in Splat2n ( ) and getting the message, "You haven't paid this month's bill. Sorry."? No matter the shortcomings, I still like that I can go online on any Nintendo games without paying a fee.
But like I said, sooner or later... X(

God first.

@arronishere: Sorry, I misspoke, I meant "competitors."
@VeeFlamesNL: In my ideal world, I would rather have online stay the way Nintendo has it now. Again, I know I'm probably one of the few people who doesn't care about voice chat/online mario platformer/massive multiplayer rooms/whatever Xbox is doing that Nintendo isn't, but I like keeping it free.

@Nicolai: I too want Online to stay free. The only feature I do want is a group chat system. Other than that, I have found Nintendo's Network pretty good so far (mostly while playing Splatoon)

People keep saying the Xbox One doesn't have Backwards Compatibility.
I don't think they know what Backwards Compatibility means...

@Blast Yeah, I wouldn't count on that. I just looked it up, and what immediately killed it was it turns out the leaker already "leaked" this information earlier, saying it would be yesterday, and that it got pushed back because Nintendo found out about the leak...HA HA! NO. I doubt Nintendo would do that because of a leak. At the most, what they'll do is take it down. Also, it has F-Zero. Once again, HA HA! NO.
Edit: Also, never...EVER, make me have to go to 4Chan again!

If you're right than this is the quickest a hype train has crashed and burned. WOW.

@Blast: The station keeps sending the trains, trying to improve each one, but each engineer is less competent than the next. Pretty soon, we're gonna get one that spontaneously explodes as soon as the engine is fired. "Hey everyone, look at this: Nintendo Direct in two seconds! One... two... ... ...where is it?"

By the way, GameXplain is publishing many videos about Xenoblade Chronicles X, so now even that game is covered...
