Topic: Next Nintendo Direct?

@HobbitGamer as my good Friend borat said, "IM VERY EXCITE!"

Oh, wow, just what I always wanted .... Lols!

If by Wii U, you mean the console that had online digital versions of Mario Galaxy 1&2, Skyward Sword and Metroid Prime Trilogy, then I'd absolutely take that as a successful Direct.

@Dezzy I already own all of them, so no, thank you

@Octane

So do I. But I want them all in HD, on a portable, and I want the Galaxy Games and Prime Trilogy working with a regular control scheme.

here the anouncemt Jeff Grubb problaby said Nintendo will do in august 27 for us and august 28 for Japan.

I can't wait for them to eventually release the Prime Trilogy on Switch and I really really hope it's in HD! I loved the first one on GC but never played the other two.

@Noble_Haltmann

They're hardly gonna launch Wii ports on the Switch and have them NOT be in HD, are they? That would be active stupidity!

Has the train left. Have I missed the direct

@LetsaGO Yep it was last September.

For Mario’s anniversary they should partner with DIC to produce animated cartoons based on Mario 64, Mario Sunshine, Mario Galaxy and New Super Mario Bros. The Super Mario cartoons were great, was disappointed they stopped after Super Mario World.

@BenAV I knew it. My friend of a friend of a friends dad did tell me about it last year

My direct prediction? Wednesday 26th august.

@Dezzy cough cough XC DE cough cough

Well ok tbf it's a remaster and not a port and it runs in 720p most of the time in docked mode but I think since it's a wii remaster it could do so much better especially in handheld-mode which is really aweful (just like XC2)

@mariomaster96

Yep, and if you go in the Xenoblade thread, you'll see I was pretty vocal about how disappointing that resolution was. They should've been able to manage more.

But that said, it's definitely not a "port". They did make quite a lot of graphical upgrades to Xenoblade. That's not what I'm expecting with the Galaxy games or Prime Trilogy. I think those probably will be straight ports just rendered at higher resolution.
So I think it's fair to expect 1080p 60fps from those!

I honestly can't tell much difference between 720p and 1080p.

@LzWinky

I can! It's really noticeable to me how much sharper an image looks at 1080p. 720p looks fuzzy on my monitor. I do play games on my computer monitor though, so I'm sitting less than a meter away.

i do predict that the Direct will happen this week, and it will be amazing!
