Changed the thread title since one is finally confirmed.

@Octane Zelda U where the free space usually is? That's just mean. Also where's Lost Reavers?

@VeeFlamesNL: I made it myself, saw someone else do it somewhere a while back, I thought it would be fun to make on myself. ''Please understand'' is for every apology they make. Didn't include a tribute to Iwata, because I don't think that's something that Nintendo will do in a Direct and since I only had 25 spaces to work with.

@IceClimbers: No free spaces this time, we're playing hard.

Lost Reavers is Project Treasure, right? TBH, I completely forgot about that one, would've included it if there wasn't anything else I could think of.

I call foul on that bingo card. Only four lines are "possibilities". The other eight lines have some unlikely aspect to them.

Formally called brewsky before becoming the lovable, adorable Yoshi.
Now playing:
Final Fantasy XIV (PC) | The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening (Switch) | Celeste (Switch)

Here's my hopes:

  • Splatoon DLC + Update which either increases the number of stages in each 4 hour rotation (e.g. 3 or 4 stages) and/or reduces the time between each rotation (e.g. 2 hours instead of 4)
  • Super Mario Maker DLC + Update which adds slopes.
  • Smash DLC featuring new characters and stages coming same day.
  • Info on whether FE Fates is a dual release in EU + release date
  • Info on Hyrule Warriors Legends + more transfer details.
  • Twilight Princess HD for 2015
  • Waluigi amiibo
  • Info on already known 2015 games + Xenoblade X demo
  • A release date for FAST Racing Neo + other indie news
  • Info on Nintendo Account/My Nintendo but not Miitomo
  • More info on GIR#FE

Also some hopes which are never going to happen:

  • New Mario Kart 8 DLC (packs 3 and 4) with the first of the packs coming out straight after the Direct.
  • Some news on Zelda U.

I just noticed that there aren't any announcements for a direct in Japan (yet?), there is nothing on their Twitter and if I type in http://www.nintendo.co.jp/nintendo_direct/20151113/sp/index.html I will get an error.

Japan tends to announce their Direct a bit later than the other regions. It's 4 a.m in Kyoto, I'd say give them a few hours.

@yokokazuo: It's nearly 4am in Japan and was midnight when the direct was announced for NA and EU, way too early morning for that kind of announcement. Expect the Japan announcement to be in around 5 hours.

The big question: Will we see Star Fox Zero?

Here's the thing - there's The Game Awards in early December. Will they wait until then to show SF0 footage, or will they show it in the Direct? Or maybe footage at both?

@Octane: Yeah Lost Reavers is Project Treasure. I think most people forgot about it TBH. We're about due for an update on it.

What are the odds of the black standard new 3ds being announced for NA

Keep an eye on Yusuke Hashimoto's twitter feed. If he retweets the Direct, we can confirm Star Fox Zero.

Retweets have never confirmed information before.

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

@Grumblevolcano @cookiex oh, it's been so long since there was one I couldn't remember if they announced them at close to the same time or not haha.

@cookiex: What did that confirm? Also didn't Sakurai retweet a Xenoblade Chronicles X direct and nothing Smash related was announced? Sometimes a retweet is just a retweet.

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

I remember Monolith tweeting right before Shulk was revealed. So there's that. imo I think a retweet from a certain company is enough to think it's likely we'll see something of theirs in some form. Or maybe they're just as hyped.

I think it means it is likely, but it doesn't confirm anything.

Expectations/predictions:

  • Smash DLC
  • Splatoon and Super Mario Maker updates
  • Reminders for AC amiibo Festival, Mario Tennis Ultra Smash, Xenoblade X, and Pokemon SMD
  • amiibo news, including the reveal of Lucas, Roy, Ryu, and other Smash DLC characters
  • Badge Center
  • Indie segment (Fast Racing Neo please!)
  • Hyrule Warriors Legends (release date?)
  • Mario & Luigi Paper Jam (NA release date?)
  • Fire Emblem Fates
  • 3rd party segment (Final Fantasy Explorers, Project X Zone 2, etc)
  • SMTxFE (official western name please!)
  • Twilight Princess HD
  • Lost Reavers
  • Star Fox Zero?
  • Pokken Tournament?
  • Pikmin 4?
  • Localisations for Rhythm Heaven and Picross 3D 2?
  • Project Guard?
  • Project Giant Robot?

So basically DLC/updates for released titles, reminders for the holiday titles, and updates on Q1/Q2 2016 titles. Nothing super huge.

@Operative: Monolith retweeted a Direct announcement when Robin, Lucina and Captain Falcon were revealed though.
