Another indie roguelike coming to the Switch...

Come on guys. This is Nintendolife, where we try to keep things nice. You want name calling, go to 4chan, Neogaf, Reddit or whatever other sites there are.

When do you think we will have another direct for next year’s game? We have the calendar up until December, but no news after that.

@Luna_110 They will have their usual late December early January one. We do need to know if anything is coming January or are they going to let us catch up lol. I can see people complaining if they don't have a January game after what Nintendo did this year.

I'm thinking either late November right before Xenoblade, and they'll touch on Xenoblade 2 along with early 2018. Or. They'll just keep releasing videos and stuff for Xenoblade before release and follow with a mid December Direct. It's also quite possible they just wait until January. I know they've had quite a few large January directs in the past.

Either way we should know the early 2018 lineup by... ohh... I'd say the time Lost Sphear releases on Switch.

edit
Sine Mora EX for Switch finally back in stock and just $17 and change brand new. Let me just say this game is fantastic. I put it up there with Ikaruga as one of the best schmups I've ever played

Not sure when we'll see another Direct, but I'm 100% certain we'll see another Nindies Showcase before the end of the year.

@Luna_110 You can look forward for the Q2 shareholder meeting which will happen on 30th of this month. They will tell us what's next for Nintendo and its systems.

@Azooooz That's for financial stuff. They're not gonna reveal games outside of maybe a tease for future mobile titles.

@Luna_110 I just searched for December Directs. There was one in 2013, the next was in 2015 so (and I normally don't go in for patterns but I really want Metroid news this year!) it looks like every two years we get a Dec Direct. SO December this year then

I think BotW DLC pack 2 info will be the Game Awards reveal.

My predictions for the first 6 months of 2018,just because

January - Kirby or Yoshi
February - Smash Deluxe together with arrival of online service and new improved VC
March - New IP, nothing huge and Eshop only, online multiplayer focused
April - Mario Kart 8 DLC
May - Big new IP, possibly from Retro
June - Odyssey DLC and another Wii U port

My predictions for that timespan are:
January - Nothing
February - Kirby
March - Wolfenstein II, Fallout 4
April - Smash Deluxe and the paid online service
May - Fire Emblem
June - Yoshi

@OorWullie @Grumblevolcano They already said Kirby was a spring title. So March at the earliest, possibly/probably not until April.

My predictions:

January - nothing
February - Smash Bros Deluxe w/ online service.
March - Project Octopath Traveler
April - Kirby Star Allies
May - ???
June - ???

Not expecting Yoshi or Fire Emblem until the second half of the year

No and no. That is both not happening and would be a pointless risk. And a terrible idea.

They might as well. Take a risk. The Big N has enough talent to pull it off.

M-Rated Waluigi game. Featuring guns and hookers. It would take the internet by storm.

More mature doesn't have to mean language and extreme violence and sex. Doesn't even have to mean rated M.

@-Green- honestly, nintendo would blow up more than GTA if they did that right lol

The music production software KORG is coming to Nintendo Switch from Detune in Spring 2018.

@SLIGEACH_EIRE well what is the point if you can't transfer files off the switch and no I'm not uploading this [removed] to Facebook.
