Sometimes the Direct is announced at 2pm UK time, sometimes it's at 3pm UK time though it's rare that Direct announcement is not NoA's first tweet of the day on the day of a Direct announcement.

It's at 8am here which is basically like the worst time for me but oh well I'll manage as always.

@FragRed Well I find cash is an acceptable apology.

I knew it. The 3pm GMT uk time portal opened up and the Nintendo monks tell through the ocarina

We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.

Hopefully tomorrow Dying Light will be a part of the Direct, get those preorders open.

It's "go" time.

I’m in a weird position. I want to see new things and more info on things on the way but my black friday cart is already full. I’m afraid for my budget.

Safest guesses. Gameboy on NSO, controller for NSO, trailers for Metroid Dread and new Animal Crossing content. Less safe guess N64 NSO, Metroid Prime Trilogy, interesting small download title and BotW 2 trailer.....

Super less safe guess (aka not happening) major new IP, new hardware revisions, Bayonetta 3, exotic new controller

New announcement predictions:

  • the rumored GBA Castlevania collection.
  • Klonoa HD collection
  • something Kirby for early next year.
  • the "big drop" at the end will either be a more in depth look at Splatoon 3 or Monolith Soft's next project (the latter is more wishful thinking on my part).

Currently Playing:
Switch - Blade Strangers
PS4 - Kingdom Hearts III, Tetris Effect (VR)

Well, I'm expecting at least 1 - 2 new indie games published by bigger publisher from Nintendo Direct tomorrow.
I have a feeling Re:Legend by 505 Games will be presented on Nintendo Direct after I remembered what did they said from their Twitter account last month.
Also, I wish Dance Dance Revolution have a chance for console release again.

New Game hopes:-
1. GTA Collection
2. The Disney Afternoon Collection - Disney just announced a re-release of their Classic Game Collection (Lion King etc) hopefully they will announce the Afternoon Collection for Switch which was on Playstation and XBOX 18 months ago
3. A early 2022 game - I hope this is Donkey Kong, but it could be Kirby

I don't think we'll see anything related to; BOTW2, Splatoon 3, Mario + Rabbids, Metroid Prime Collection/4 or Mario Kart 9.

I'd love them to announce Mario Kart 8 DLC, maybe 4 new carts, circuits and drivers to celebrate 40m units sold?! Slim to No chance, but I can wish!!

Since everyone else is doing predictions:

  • Whatever that new controller is to be will be the latest NSO. Most likely Game Boy and maybe Colour but I could see Nintendo doing that separately for no other reason than it being Nintendo.
  • I don’t expect N64 NSO to be announced or ever to come. GBA would be the only other system potentially to happen but not this year.
  • Castlevania Advance seems likely given it’ll be downloaded only so they don’t need as much build up to release as it would if physical.
  • I don’t think that rumoured GTA remastered collection will be shown. Still think it’ll be announced by Sony if not just shadow dropped by Rockstar. Also think they’ll be based on the awful mobile versions if they ever do release.
  • Dying Light gameplay reveal
  • Advance Wars 1 & 2 trailer
  • SMT V trailer
  • Animal Crossing update whatever that ends up being.
  • Smash Bros final character reveal
  • Nothing on either Metroid Prime 4, Trilogy or Bayonetta
  • Nothing about BTOW2
  • Nothing Mario related
  • Some surprise third party ports.

Wild guesses:

  • F Zero is back…… as a free to play game coming to Switch first with mobile to follow.
  • Pikmin 4 is revealed but with a catch… it’s a coop party game
  • Kirby has a new game announced but it is even more of the same but more bland
  • The next mainline Mario game is revealed to be a sequel to New Super Mario Bros Wii U and is 99% just reused assets to the point it’s virtually identical but will still sell millions so they don’t care.
  • Konami reveal a new game in the Goemon games but like with the latest Contra entry, it’ll totally suck and destroy many people’s hopes and dreams of them ever making decent games again.
  • Sega will finally realise people want their arcade games and various console games made available but will totally miss the point and just release the downgraded Mega Drive/Genesis/Master System versions instead
  • Skyrim anniversary edition is announced for the Switch. It’s identical to the current Switch version but repackaged and now with 1 extra FPS. Also trees are slightly different.
  • Microsoft do a live stream of them meeting Nintendo to attempt to put forward the offer of being bought out only to sit and listen to Nintendo laugh and point for hours none stop.

Nice to see Nintendo back to regularly releasing normal Directs. It's great. The Directs this year have been really solid, even if they haven't had much for me.

However, I'm personally not too hyped for this. I expect some random third party character that has little to no presence on Nintendo systems to be the last SSB DLC character, and I expect more overpriced $60 Zelda ports.

What would be nice but I don't expect it is NSO to expand quite a bit. It's really bad that we're sitting at four and a half years into the system and it doesn't have a fraction of what the Wii U or Wii had. Just really sad. No N64 is really pathetic at this point.
