Topic: Next Nintendo Direct?

I know it's a joke, but clearly we aren't getting any paper mario announcements anytime soon. It would just be too much distraction from Mario RPG. Plus we are already pretty much full up on Mario right now.

I think basically every possibility has been predicted at this point, so we may as well buckle up and see what actually happens this week

@DiamondCore
I have bought Paper Mario TTYD GameCube last August 2023 LOL.
Let's see if TTYD will get Remastered on Switch.

@FishyS yeah, smrpg sadly rules it out D:

@Anti-Matter I hope so! But like @FishyS said, it would likely interfere with SMRPG in November.

@BobTheBunkerGuy thanks! I made them myself on an iPad, it’s surprisingly not hard to do, just requires some effort in replication to make it look legit.
Also, here’s a new TTYD mock-up with the hashtag added (reason it was originally excluded was because some Nintendo products have them and some don’t so I figured I’d apply that to the mockups)

Got my clown wig at the ready if there isn’t any Side Order news at the next Direct 😭

About had a heart attack upon first glance.

Nice mock up though.

Man, if this rumored F-Zero GX Remaster is for real, I might pass out.

@blindsquarel thanks!
I think a lot of people would have a heart attack if they saw a random legit-looking image of a TTYD remaster announcement while scrolling down forum comments lol

All this talk about remasters reminded me of this thread from a decade ago:

@Grumblevolcano
That has to be one of the most moronic threads I've ever read. 🤦🤣

@Grumblevolcano Looked at the first post and $100 per download?! Lmao

I’m such an idiot, I woke up at 7:00 in my time zone being disappointed there was no direct announcement, only to remember Nintendo announces them at 8:00 Instead. These stupid rumors are taking over my life

Yeah we're coming close to that time, a little over half an hour at time of writing

What an insane thread. That being said, I think I would legit pay $100 to own all the games on NSO.

@TheBigBlue @Nintoz @Stamina_Wheel Haven't they mostly been announced at around 2:00PM Irish Time? That's certainly been the case for the past couple Directs 🤔

@ElRoberico interesting point. People speak of the old Virtual Console these days as the gospel, but in reality, you needed to pay 7 dollars CA to own a single NES game. The N64 games were even higher in price just for a single one. Sure you aren’t “owning” the games, but the price difference is huge. Instead of buying around 5-6 N64 games for 12 dollars each, you can own over 20 for a yearly 50 dollar fee. I liked Virtual Console for its variety and how much more games it has compared to the drip fed NSO, but the price differences to own all those games is quite different. In that way, I prefer NSO. I would have never discovered hidden gems like F-Zero X because I wouldn’t have paid 12 dollars for it

@TheBigBlue I'm personally hoping for one of two outcomes in regards to NSO's eventual end on Switch:

• NSO continues on Switch 2 and your subscription/games carry over to the next system
• NSO is retired and you can buy each app for €60+/- depending on the games available (e.g. cheaper to buy all the NES games than it would be for N64 for instance)

@Fizza I think it's usually a 2pm (our time zone) announcement for the February directs but for summer and September they seem to go for 3pm instead.
From what I can see at least, perhaps it has to do with clocks changing!

@Nintoz Oh I see, understood XD

What should I have expected haha

Refreshing their Twitter page like a madman...
