Topic: 2017 direct:Arms direct 5/17

I changed this for all of 2017 I might use it in 2018
Now E3 2017 predictions

@andrew20 Yeah, I'd give this direct a B+. It's use was to inform some needed information on what's coming around the corner and tying loose ends, especially in the Amiibo department.

It's obvious that Nintendo's E3 is going to be the 'big one', in terms of information and game announcements. Though I shouldn't get my hopes too high in fear of possible disappointment, but Nintendo is known for their surprises. For better or for worse.

@AlwaysGreener The past 2 years have been bad.
Well 2016 was better than 2015.
2014 was the best of the Nintendo lost generation

@Frosty_09 I think an Animal Crossing Direct could happen which focuses on the upcoming mobile game. If you look at the Nintendo mobile games release dates, a May/June release for Animal Crossing seems realistic.

• December 2016: Super Mario Run
• February 2017: Fire Emblem Heroes

I think there is going to be a digital event at e3 and a animal crossing one and one in late summer to early fall for fire emblem warriors and Mario game release dated and for 2018

Who thinks they will do an pokemon direct this month
I think it will be called the stars direct with pokemon stars and Mario and luigi super stars saga dx with pokemon gen 2 on vc and gen 4 remakes.

it be like this
gen 2 vc on 3ds follow be stars on switch(they will announce it but show it off more at e3 I think they might port pokken over to switch. Along with gen 4 diamond will be on 3ds pearl on switch or platinum.then Mario and Luigi superstar saga dx with

Not sure if it'll be in a Direct, but May is usually a big month for Pokemon news.

I hope they save the Pokemon announcement for E3 instead of posting another 30 second trailer of box art that no one cares about.

As well as the E3 thing — inevitably on Tuesday the 13th — I think there will be some sort of Splatoon 2 direct before its release in July. Arms literally releases the Friday of E3 week, so there's no way that gets its own thing outside of the digital event. Plus Nintendo still has a lot of convincing to do on arms, so they'll give it 5-10 minutes on the big stage.

@Haru17 Nintendo's already confirmed there's no press conference for E3. We're likely getting a digital event like 2014/2015.

@Grumblevolcano I know. I literally mentioned 'digital event' in my post. The digital event that will predictably, inevitably be at the same time as Nintendo's old pressers on E3 Tuesday at 9 am.

Are we even getting a direct? We didn't get one last year, did we

No, but Nintendo's 2016 Pokemon and Zelda + other 3DS games Treehouse stream started at Tuesday at 9 am. That was also before the "Switch" was announced, so I don't think it's comparable.

E3 prediction time starts
for treehouse and showcase for N3DS/Switch

A direct is coming
on 5/17/17 everyone time to get on the hype train
It is on arms and who else knows
