Topic: Next Nintendo Direct?

@Grumblevolcano or they could reveal that No More Heroes 1 is coming to Switch or both.

@damien33ad i can see this happening, but i advice everyone hype to remain controled just in case the suposed general Nintendo Direct everyone is talking about turn out to be a Mini Nintendo Direct, you don't want another Partners Showcase situation again do you?please everyone keep your expectations in check just in case if the suposed general Nintendo Direct of next week turn out to be a Nintendo Direct Mini.

@Dezzy Yeah, that's true as well. WW is one of those games that ages very well. But you can also question the pricing of that remaster, since it probably didn't require a lot of work at all.

@Slowdive I only skim-read the thread because I didn't want spoilers so I just saw a lot of discussion about leaks and what various insiders have said, but looking back it seems like it was mostly just about the date of a Direct rather than any specific game, so I guess that's fine. My opinion still stands though when it comes to leaks of actual games; it annoys me when people fixate on leaks rather than just being patient and seeing what gets officially announced, which I feel is more rewarding. We've already had the Mario remasters spoiled if those are indeed real; I currently couldn't care less about those but maybe I'll feel differently if we actually get to see them instead of just being told they exist. But yes, you're right that there's bound to be plenty of other things coming that we don't know about yet.

i advice everyone expectation to be controlled, if the rumored general Nintendo Direct that everyone is talking about, even a jornalist/Leaker of a Brazilan site to keep in check, if the rumored general Nintendo Direct turn out to be a Nintendo Direct Mini, we don't want another Partners Showcase situation again don't yes i don't want?

@Octane

Yeah but that's never how prices get determined is it? Prices are determined base on what subjective value an item has to the consumer, not based on what objective value it took to create.

How much do you think Animal Crossing cost to make? What about Cyberpunk? They're selling for the same price (and will probably sell a similar number of copies), but I guarantee one cost a lot more to make.

@Dezzy I don't think I entirely agree. Older games generally get cheaper over time. And that's a good thing, because the last thing I'd want is this industry to regurgitate old games for full price just because they provide the same perceived value of a new game.

@Octane

Yes but they get cheaper because people place a lower subjective value on them, usually because they've had so many other ways of playing them over the years, or because they seem less impressive by modern standards.

They couldn't just regurgitate any old game and sell it for full price, because people wouldn't be willing to pay that.

My only point was that the changes they make in order to resell something at retail don't necessarily need to correspond to a high budget for the developer. They can be things that have a high value for the audience but are very cheap for the developer. Like the Swift Sail in Wind Waker.

So Ring Fit Adventure is getting it's own Chinese direct tomorrow.

And that's the rumored Direct that was to come post-Indie Presentation.

Hey, it's Nintendo in 2020, it totally could be the case. Lol.

@Dezzy Maybe we can conclude that Nintendo fans value Nintendo games way too highly

And yeah, the swift sail, I personally wouldn't pay for that. Even at €30, I think it's fine to expect little changes like that. Anyway, I did buy it at full price, so who am I to say that. But I've learned my lessen ever since.

Interessting, but considering that it probably won't be called Breath of the Wild 2 I think it's fake

Well, Hades & Spiritfarer .... Anyone fancy either of those? Got former on Steam, so won't get Switch one

@BruceCM Raji and hades for me so far

Yeah, Raji looks quite good ... Also coming to Steam! Already got Torchlight III there, too but that was quite a good direct, really

Not a thing for me in there but I thought the show was very well done. Also the fact that so many are out today is a really good move!

That evergate game had me thinking it was ori. Until the title was shown I thought it was honestly.

Well, I missed the indie world and they privated the video now...? Guess I'll have to wait and see if it gets reposted.

@status-204,

its disrespectful to keep us in the dark. If they can't show stuff and release stuff for the remainder of 2020 because of Corona, please tell us. Instead they tell nothing. And Sony and Microsoft (who always rely on their second party's) have their consoles and tons of interesting stuff coming up, while Nintendo only has the indies (that I can download everywhere at lower prices if I want to).

@link3710 They probably do that because Youtube chat is generally very toxic. Set the stream to private and then reupload the stream as a video with no chat.
