I kind of hope the movie isn't inserted into a direct again tbh. The first trailer should be released out on it's own, instead of being within a presentation that's meant to speak about games, and that people will watch primarily for the game news.

@Kermit1
The movie is animated, so if realistic Mario appears, something must have gone very wrong 😅.
@Fizza
Many of the Mario Kart DLC tracks were datamined before release, so it's possible he was just reading the datamined information + making educated guesses.
@Kermit1 I'm leaning towards MK8 Deluxe DLC start and Zelda end. MK8 Deluxe DLC taking the role of Smash Ultimate DLC and Zelda being 1 of 2 outcomes:
1. Here's a big BotW 2 trailer and it launches on [insert specific day in Spring 2023]
2. BotW 2 is delayed to sometime later in 2023 or 2024, in the meantime here's more Zelda ports (there may still be a BotW 2 teaser trailer)
@Mioaionios
I genuinely already content with some trailer from other games presentation like PAX Games 2022 before and some upcoming games information from play-asia and that's why I oftenly checking play-asia for the upcoming games that didn't announced from Nintendo Direct. Some developer / publisher decided to announce their upcoming games without Nintendo Direct.
@Anti-Matter
Some announcements outside Directs can be fun for sure, but Nintendo Directs always bring that special something... I like to compare it to Disney magic. Nintendo magic.
We probably won't be getting a direct this week, but I feel like next week is more likely. I've noticed they've been moreso aiming for the middle of them month instead of the beginning for these directs recently.

Yeah, I am definitely expecting a Direct next week if at all. This week seems to be the least likely of the two because of the Pokemon trailer and what @VoidofLight mentioned above.

@NintendoByNature
The things I got from play-asia was the new games pre-order if the upcoming games didn't get announced from Nintendo Direct as I guess the developers choose different way to promote their games.
Recently I'm not really hyped with Nintendo Direct as the 3rd party games that revealed mostly not the kind of games I want to play, the 1st party games were not really convincing me or I don't even care games like xenoblade 3 / splatoon 3 / botw 2 / Kirby dream buffet as I prefer 3rd party games (the underrated / niche games) than 1st party games.
Also, currently whenever I'm hunting for upcoming 3rd party kids games, I will check the PS5 / PS4 version first as I will get them on PlayStation version than Switch version.
@Anti-Matter Some people like to focus on the current and near future (e.g. Xenoblade Chronicles 3, Splatoon 3) while others like to ponder the far future (e.g. BotW 2, Metroid Prime 4). We all have games that we're looking forward to and others that we already have which we haven't completed yet. General Directs give Nintendo fans the opportunity to come together in celebration for what's to come and that's true even if there's a gigantic list of games you already know you're looking forward to that's coming soon.
I just hope this next direct has BotW 2 info. I'm not expecting it, but it would be nice to get something that helps ease my fears of the game being just BotW with a few new things they couldn't do in the original.

@StarPoint or Nintendo could do a Nintendo Direct dedicated for Bayonetta 3, remember they did a Nintendo Direct dedicated for Bayonetta 2 back in septembre 2014.
