@Dezzy yeah I agree with you. It's just that I would be fine with a kingdom or two in the form of dlc, even though I would prefer odyssey 2 and I also think that it is more likely.
@IceClimbers Well we got 3 in 2017 (BotW Champion's Ballad, Bayonetta 1+2, Bayonetta 3) and 2018 could've been 3 or 4 if Prime 4 wasn't restarted, so maybe. That said even with the September Direct, Switch's lineup is rather barren after Pokemon Sword/Shield so maybe Nintendo does a November Direct around the time Terry Bogard is released and announces DLC fighter 5 there.
@Grumblevolcano That was 3 announcements in 2 world premieres since the Bayonetta news was together though.
I think the two Doom games, Assassin's Creed, and Dauntless are enough to wrap up the year. Wouldn't be surprised if DMC3 got released before the end of the year either.
A November Direct could certainly happen, but I definitely don't expect it.
If I had any real problem with this Direct, its that way too many game companies (Nintendo included) feel the need to put so many games out in the last few months of the year. Like some of these games would almost certainly do better if released around like February instead of having to compete with Pokemon and Luigi's Mansion and Link's Awakening and Witcher and Overwatch and Spyro etc etc.
@kkslider5552000 I'm with you on that. Why the big end of the year push by everyone? It's like the 3 stooges all trying to cram thru the same door. On the flip side, it just means theres really something for everyone this part of the year. No one should feel disappointed.
@IceClimbers Yeah, I think a November Direct could happen but it not happening wouldn't be surprising either. With the insanity moving into October and November rather than just being an August 30 to September 27 thing, I'm not sure whether the insane lineup is caused by the Switch Lite or there's plenty happening in early 2020 that's unknown and an insane late August to mid-November is better than an insane January to March for example.
From what we know so far, a fair number of these games would probably do better in early 2020 than the holidays.
I doubt there will be another direct until the games awards as they want to keep the big reveals until then. I do think there will be a pokemon direct as Gamefreak are having a 30th anniversary video next month which might be included in that.
I'm sure there will be Pokemon Direct before 15 November 2019. I think it will be on October 2019 or early November 2019. Probably the agenda will be revealing the evolution of starter Pokemons.
So when do we think the next Direct Will be? We just had a Indie Direct and no real annoncements at TGA so we should see one very early january right? the 2020 Line-up is looking Pretty sparse at the moment..
Well, they could do some reveals on Social media to keep us going, @Ninja84.... But I think a January direct is likely, though I'll say nearer the end of the month
It all depends on how games are coming along & info from various third parties, as well as the known Nintendo own stuff
Third party support could also be going down because the focus will be on developing for the New platforms coming holiday season next year. I’m still Hoping for a strong year but beginning to have my doubts.
