Topic: Next Nintendo Direct?

About had a heart attack upon first glance.

Nice mock up though.

Man, if this rumored F-Zero GX Remaster is for real, I might pass out.

@blindsquarel thanks!
I think a lot of people would have a heart attack if they saw a random legit-looking image of a TTYD remaster announcement while scrolling down forum comments lol

All this talk about remasters reminded me of this thread from a decade ago:

https://www.nintendolife.com/forums/wii-u/nintendo_should_cha...

@Grumblevolcano
That has to be one of the most moronic threads I've ever read. 🤦🤣

@Grumblevolcano Looked at the first post and $100 per download?! Lmao

I’m such an idiot, I woke up at 7:00 in my time zone being disappointed there was no direct announcement, only to remember Nintendo announces them at 8:00 Instead. These stupid rumors are taking over my life

Yeah we're coming close to that time, a little over half an hour at time of writing

What an insane thread. That being said, I think I would legit pay $100 to own all the games on NSO.

@TheBigBlue @Nintoz @Stamina_Wheel Haven't they mostly been announced at around 2:00PM Irish Time? That's certainly been the case for the past couple Directs 🤔

@ElRoberico interesting point. People speak of the old Virtual Console these days as the gospel, but in reality, you needed to pay 7 dollars CA to own a single NES game. The N64 games were even higher in price just for a single one. Sure you aren’t “owning” the games, but the price difference is huge. Instead of buying around 5-6 N64 games for 12 dollars each, you can own over 20 for a yearly 50 dollar fee. I liked Virtual Console for its variety and how much more games it has compared to the drip fed NSO, but the price differences to own all those games is quite different. In that way, I prefer NSO. I would have never discovered hidden gems like F-Zero X because I wouldn’t have paid 12 dollars for it

@TheBigBlue I'm personally hoping for one of two outcomes in regards to NSO's eventual end on Switch:

• NSO continues on Switch 2 and your subscription/games carry over to the next system
• NSO is retired and you can buy each app for €60+/- depending on the games available (e.g. cheaper to buy all the NES games than it would be for N64 for instance)

@Fizza I think it's usually a 2pm (our time zone) announcement for the February directs but for summer and September they seem to go for 3pm instead.
From what I can see at least, perhaps it has to do with clocks changing!

@Nintoz Oh I see, understood XD

What should I have expected haha

Refreshing their Twitter page like a madman...

@TheBigBlue I think that's fair. I do agree with what @Fizza said. If they abandon the NSO apps, I hope they offer a discounted bundle price for them. I would pay $60US or more for at least the Nintendo ones. I really, really, REALLY don't want to buy the games individually again.

So I guess this means we're likely to get an announcement tomorrow at this time?

I don’t know anymore, at least it give me an excuse to go on a massive rant on those stupid Twitter accounts, I’ll obliterate them in seconds

@Stamina_Wheel The biggest question was if Nintendo wanted to be overshadowed by the Apple event. Clearly, they want to completely avoid it. Looks like we're getting a Wednesday announcement for a Thursday Direct.

Or we're all entirely wrong, and this ruins many weekends.
