Topic: Next Nintendo Direct?

@DannyBoi
Honestly, i don't even want any Free games, even from Nintendo.
The Free games on that context are always digital format.
If i got Free Physical games in box, i will accept them gleefully.

@DannyBoi Last SNES and NES games were dropped in early December, so I’d expect more by March if they are on 3 month annual release schedule.

It really should be every month, but that’s a whole ‘nother discussion.

@DannyBoi we already get free games with Nintendo switch online. And eventually we will get more. What games are you hoping for?

@1UP_MARIO I meant like PS Plus and games with gold does.

And maybe the odd AAA switch game.

@NotTelevision Yeah, I'd guess announce on March 5th for release on March 12th like December. Probably 4 SNES and 2 NES like last time also.

@Grumblevolcano Yeah that seems like a likely release date.

@DannyBoi Haha. You are talking about something that currently doesn’t exist on Switch. Although it probably should.

There are games like Kirby Star Allies, Yoshi’s Crafted World, and Captain Toad that I’m sure Nintendo could offer as part of a PS+ style monthly subscription service. Also some indie studios could be paid to be participate.

I guess it doesn’t matter since Switch games are selling well as is, but it would be nice for subscribers of the online service.

@DannyBoi that would be amazing and I won’t complain. I pay 5 pounds for Nintendo switch online on a family sub shared so anything is already better than the rest

I think Breath of the Wild 2 will release in March 2021, after the buzz of the next gen has winded down a bit.

However, I would love to see a Zelda multiplayer in the style of Link's Awakening in 2020. Perhaps a sequel to Four Swords Adventures?

What do you guys think? Would you like a top down multiplayer Zelda on the Switch?

@Oubie although I never played it in multiplayer, cadence of Hyrule is pretty much that. A top down 2d multiplayer zelda. And it looks like a blend of four swords and minish cap graphics wise.

Never played four swords and I wouldn't mind multiplayer as long as you can have the option to play as single player.

I feel that Animal Crossing Direct may be on February 6th. The timing lines up with the Mario Maker 2 Direct (Direct on May 15th, release on June 28th) and also quite a fair amount of teaser info has appeared over the past week like the renders and ad over the past day.

@NintendoByNature Wait, Cadence has multiplayer? How have I never heard about this?

@link3710 pretty sure. Think they show cased it in the treehouse live e3

Edit: Yea it's 2 players

What is Nintendo direct ?

Please give us Metroid Prrime 4 and Bayonetta 3!!

@Adnanilyas21 You won't get anything Metroid Prime 4 related - it is way too early for that to be showcased. But I fully expect something Bayonetta 3 related to be revealed.

Nintendo have started advertising on youtube for their best recent eshop games. I don't know if this says anything in terms of the Direct. It could mean either they're trying to build up hype because it's coming this week or next week, or it could mean it's still like another month away so they're just trying to plug the gap.

It's Up Up Down Down Left Right Left Right B A Select Start code. 😆

Interesting, if a general direct doesn't come this week it's the longest gap between 2 general directs if you consider E3 as a general direct. The previous record was set by the gap between the September 2018 and February 2019 directs.

September 13th 2018 to February 13th 2019 = 153 days

We'll find out in the next few days if Nintendo beats this record. I think they will.

@Anti-Matter I'm not sure what it is ?
