Topic: Next Nintendo Direct?

@Xenomorth Oh yeah, definitely. I'm certain they were briefed by the ESA, so they all had their response ready.

Wonder how Nintendo's stocks are doing?

@DannyBoi Very bad. I've heard rumours that the April Direct is postponed until May.

@Octane The peak of this year was at the end of January.And it was 40K in Yens,now it goes for 30K.I rounded the price but you get the idea.

@DannyBoi Given the entire market is horrendously down...?

Something I'd absolutely love to see announced for the Switch, that frankly has an OK chance of happening: Dragon Quest 8 HD.
There isn't really a definitive version of that game, because the PS2/Android versions are graphically more advanced, but the 3DS version has added gameplay features. Combine the 2, and improve some of the old texturing. And hey presto, you've got an awesome Switch game.

@Dezzy I'm pretty sure I brought that up a few months ago. Out of all the DQs, I just have a feeling a remaster of 8 is the most likely to show up next.

Have any playlists been updated?

@DannyBoi don’t worry about the stocks. We need more maintenance, is more coming up for Nintendo

@La-weejee What about stock maintenance?

Current maintenance (UK times):
Parental Controls: March 18th 2 - 4am
Eshop using cards: March 23rd 11pm - March 24th 7am
Eshop: March 24th 4:30 - 6:30am

Thanks to the last rumors im more excited about this Direct than usual. I expect lots of third party support

@Grumblevolcano Parental controls is probably for AC. The others may be for AC as well.

I wouldn't invest stock in Nintendo at the moment. Being a dodgy company. Which is to be expected.

@Octane your absolutely right. Lol

I wonder what Nintendo would've done if Byleth was the last Smash Ultimate fighter and Animal Crossing was released in December (which given 2019's lineup I think was the original release month before the delay).

I would like to see announcement of FF IX Switch in physical, Re:Legend by Magnus Games have release date for consoles, A Knight's Quest get physical release, Ninjala release date, etc.

@Grumblevolcano Honestly, I'm pretty sure at this point AC: NH was delayed solely to fill out the schedule rather than it not being ready.

Give us a new Mario vs donkey kong and make it free like the amiibo and friends on the Wii u.

It's definitely the most likely if they port something else. It's insanely popular in Japan too. Probably my favourite in the series from what I've played. Although I'm only about a quarter through DQ11. But so far I'd say DQ8>DQ11>DQ7>DQ9 (the only 4 I've played).

It's not really worth the price for that 1 old game by itself. It really should've been included alongside 7 and 8 on their physical release. I definitely would've bought that! But I'm not paying again for a game I already have on 3 different systems.
