@Octane I second this! We need a new thread called Next Nintendo Shadowdrop instead

I think it's best for everyone's mental well-being that we close this thread. Directs are dead.

Coming soon; the Nintendo Indirect.

@eChameleon That’s when Nintendo sends out thousands of emails to random people, each with a single word that must be pieced together before the next full moon to truly know the next game Nintendo is releasing.

Yeah I mean if Nintendo Directs are so great, why isn't there a Nintendo Direct 2 yet?

@mariomaster96 Because Nintendo is porting the first to the Switch in a Deluxe Edition.

@Slowdive what authority are they leaning on to say that they can confirm it is real. If they knew it was happening why didn't they leak it before hand? Why did they make a thousand predictions but this one yet we are still asking them to confirm if it's real.

It's difficult for me to get excited for a game made for waggle controls.

It'll be interesting to see if Nintendo added controller support for Skyward Sword, or will it be a tv mode joy-con only game like Fitness Boxing or Disney Tsum Tsum?

I always get excited when I waggle my controller

Somehow I think nintendo will unfortunately get the last laugh whatever happens.

Destiny, justice and retribrution will be mine.

Zell is the same reliable guy who said in Feb '19 that Metroid Prime Trilogy would be announced in a direct, yeah?

I think he also said that the direct from july 20th will be a general direct heavily focused on mario

@Slowdive my point is I could validate something myself if you let me walk it back later. These people make predictions or confirm things and then walk them back making them unreliable.

You expect a leaker to be 100% right all the time?

Well yeah, otherwise it's not leaking,

@Slowdive I think this thread is necessary to prevent Direct speculation from taking over the main Switch thread.

All that's really happening on the Nintendo front is Direct rumours and Indie games

I was joking. Most of you are already insane, beyond saving.

@damien33ad what about a game that never existed like Star Fox Grand Prix or Pokemon Stars, false information like Zelda BOTW wasn’t going to be a launch title for the Switch or if a localisation which was meant to happen but never did like Mother 3?

I don’t really trust Miyamoto either, he said Pikmin 4 was nearly done years ago

If someone says Game will launch in fall, but launches in Winter, then all they were doing was predicting, not leaking. A leak is an actual fact of detailed information.

Semantics? Yes. But conflating the two gets really close to supposition, which is Pachter territory
