Topic: Next Nintendo Direct?

@Giancarlothomaz
No, he said that even though Dread concludes the 2D Metroid story arc that started with Metroid NES, he has ideas for a Metroid 6, not that is already in pre-production (though it could be).

I kinda wanna know if they plan to release a zelda edition switch. If that happens would they wait until a zelda direct or mention it with this one? If those rumors of a March Zelda direct are true.

It definitely looks like things are getting closer, UK My Nintendo Store now has an official twitter account with the first tweet being today:

My fingers are crossed for the 7th. I just wanna know what's coming, man. This week has been full of waiting for stuff to happen (especially Enzo!).

I took all of next week off work in an attempt to catch up to the backlog a bit.

Go ahead and hit me with that 9am CST Direct any day you'd like next week, Nintendo.

@boop23 tell me about it lol
It feels like we still don't actually know about TotK apart from the title and that there's stuff in the sky.

I watched the trailer for BotW at the switch reveal the other day and I legitimately get goosebumps when the music starts to REALLY kick in. That kind of trailer for TotK would be grand about now haha

I hope the Direct next week is an evening one. I can't exactly watch all of the early ones, but if I have some sort of notice to take the day off, sure. I'm due a mental health day anyway.

All I hope is that the direct isn’t starting at 8 am, like the last one did. I missed it due to school.

I do prefer Directs starting at 10pm/11pm UK time over 3pm UK time.

@SlashFuture if my job didn't require me to pretty much be on during early Directs, I'd love them, but alas, my miserable job keeps me from my hobbies.

Adulting sucks.

I would also like an evening direct. I can never catch directs in the morning, and I end up having to read about them and watch clips later. I just want to go crazy with the live chat over announcements.

I don't think I will get hyped with upcoming Direct as I knew the games that will be revealed only cater to mainstream audiences with stuffs like zelda, mario, metroid, etc.
I'm already tired with same Mario stuffs, I have zero interest with zelda / metroid, I think I only get interested with something unusual / unpopular but quickly get my attention.

@Anti-Matter would you be interested in a Mario farming sim????

@Kermit1
I would like to see Mario games in different genre like Life Sim Mario or Secret agent Mario or Beatmania IIDX Mario.
Nintendo have ever experienced with unique spinoff during Iwata era so I think Switch needs some unique spinoff with quality like 3rd party games.

@Anti-Matter Mario Vs Rabbids is really fun and quite funny... Though it doesn't go too crazy with its ideas.

Chiming in here on preferred Direct times, I kind of get the worst of both worlds most of the time (either extremely early or extremely late) but if I had to pick the lesser of two evils I'd probably go with 10/11PM myself. Yeah I may not get a great night's sleep, but at least I'm able to prepare myself and go nuts with the announcements without disturbing the household too much compared to the other side of the coin of having to whisper what's happening to myself for an early morning Direct

@Fizza yelling during a Direct is a great wake-up call.

@Fizza Aren't you in Ireland? Surely, that would mean like us in the UK, they'd be at either 10/11PM or 3PM? I've never heard of any early morning ones.

@TeaCatherine Not specifically a Direct but the 2017 Switch Presentation was at 4am.

@Grumblevolcano Ah, right, thanks, so it doesn't happen very often then.
