@BabyYoshi12 I'm leaning towards general Direct or Direct Mini if there's a Direct because of the 3rd party front. It's not just the Nintendo side that is lacking in quantity after July, it's Switch games in general. Now it's possible that 3rd parties just don't want to support Switch anymore because next gen is coming but I don't think that's the case.
@dionysos283 No way, cause the Mario collection ain't real.
I'd assume they'd want to do it before Paper Mario's launch to give it a boost. They're still clearly holding back key information about that game. But I also suspect that may not be practical, so I'm gonna guess we'd get it near the end of the month.
But... I also don't think we'll get one at all until September.
Mario & Pikachu
After Luigi is kidnapped, Mario goes on a long adventure to save Luigi and teams up with a new friend- Pikachu. Along the way, they meet many more Pokémon. Based on a Mario & Luigi game, this brand new game will be released on the Nintendo Switch on November 28, 2020.
Mario Star Allies
In a sequel to the game Kirby Star Allies, Kirby goes on an adventure and meets Mario. This game will release for mobile devices in 2021.
Animal Crossing: New Arrival
This Animal Crossing: New Horizons DLC will include a new arrival of new characters. One is red with blue overalls and the other looks identical but green. There’s also a pink princess. Who are they? Find out on December 16, 2020.
Untitled Mario- Fire Emblem game
We can’t reveal much, but this game will release for both Nintendo Switch and mobile devices in 2023.
Heigh Ho Heigh Ho. It’s off to work (from home) I go.
I want Super Mario Kart Ultimate; the Mario Kart equivalent of Smash Bros Ultimate, with every character that has ever been in the series, plus loads and loads of bonus characters from other franchises. And a whole load of cups and tracks from previous games in the series, as well as new ones. It would be the most ambitious Mario Kart ever (although I'm fine with it being built from the MK8 engine), since I'd also want some kind of challenge mode (like the World of Light mode from Smash Bros Ultimate) and it would have so many tracks, but it would be amazing.
@BabyYoshi12 Nice! I've never played Fire Emblem so idk about that... @Reprise Me too! I'm drooling for a new Mario Kart! We haven't had a new one for 6 years :/
@dionysos283 I would usually say Monday Directs are unrealistic but July 23rd (the Thursday of that week) is Microsoft's time so Nintendo would probably want to avoid that day to prevent souring their relationship with Microsoft. Hence if a Direct after Paper Mario, 20th seems reasonable.
The leaker expects a general Direct, which makes me wonder, what we could see besides the rumored 3D Mario collection and Pikmin 3 port. Could we get one or two big holiday titles? I think it would be smart for Nintendo to end the year with a bang.
No. I don’t think there’s ever been a Monday Direct, @dionysos283. I thought a Direct would come out on the 23, but based on what @Grumblevolcano said, I think it’d be July 22/24/26/30. I also think it will be a Mario Direct, celebrating his 35th anniversary with Mario Remaster Rumours. Maybe MK8D DLC. Stuff like that.
