Topic: Next Nintendo Direct?

I hope there are unannounced first party games coming to Switch before 2023.

There will be at least 1 or 2 given previous years as an example.

There'll be some sort of blue ocean title announced on Twitter for December most likely.

Endless Ocean please and thank you.

@Don and @IceClimbers does Wave Race fit in the blue ocean category?i recall in 2018 Shiya Takahashi impling Wave Race might return on

@Giancarlothomaz
That would be awesome if we get a new Wave Race title, it’s long overdue.

@Don yes, imagine what Nintendo could do with today tecnology for a potencial Wave Race on Switch.

Even though there's lots to play, I'm starting to crave a general Direct. I finished XC3 earlier today and now I'm thinking about when will MK8 Deluxe DLC wave 3 release.

@Grumblevolcano since Nintendo is releasing the DLC of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe every 4 month, i predict that in novembre the third wave of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe DLC will release.

There's not really a need for a direct anytime soon, since we have a game in both september, october and november.

@Giancarlothomaz I'm personally leaning towards October myself, what with Mario+Rabbids also coming out in that month and the fact that Pokemon comes out in November (makes me feel like they'd want to give it as much room as possible to sell, you know? It's POKEMON for crying out loud!).

I have registered some upcoming games from play-asia on my purchase list even without Nintendo Direct. 😊

@Fizza @Giancarlothomaz The week beginning October 29th would be my as guess given that week contains both Halloween (October 31st) and the start of the holiday season (November 1st). Though that is directly connected to my guess that wave 3 has both a ghost track (SNES Ghost Valley 1/2/3, N64 Banshee Boardwalk, GBA Boo Lake, GBA Broken Pier or DS Luigi's Mansion) and Merry Mountain from Tour.

In other news, it feels like the September general Direct dream is over:

@Grumblevolcano I guess I wouldn't write off the possibility quite yet, considering this is only happening in August. I could still see a Direct around mid-September.

I have also registered some games from Amazon.co.uk on my purchase list even without the direct too 😀😀😀

@StarPoint The Splatoon 3 stuff makes me think not before Splatoon 3 launches but Harvestella being present makes me think not in September at all given that game releases in November.

@Grumblevolcano Ah I suppose that's possible. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

With a September direct potentially not happening does that squash any chance of a zelda remaster for the year?

@NintendoByNature Not really. It's important to remember that the closest to 2022's approach so far has been 2020 where Nintendo announced a load of 1st party IP stuff in September even though there was no general Direct.

I don't think a Treehouse Live necessarily precludes a September Direct, especially since Tokyo Game Show is still happening.
