Interesting. Didn't think we'd get Crafted World's date announced outside of a Direct.

Blaster Master and Zelda 2 are both games I've wanted to revisit recently, so I'm glad to hear they're the new NES additions.

Zelda II baybeeeeeeeeee! Second best Zelda game IN THE HOUSE!

Blaster Master is also really good. It feels a bit dated compared to Blaster Master Zero, but it's still a blast (heh).

Really cannot wait... but I already have Valkyria Chronicles 1 and 4 and Tales of Vesperia is coming in the mail on Friday... welp.

I've got all the Smash Ultimate spirits except the Let's Go exclusives and I've nearly finished WoL NG+ so I'm going to be ready for NSMBU Deluxe on Friday if there ends up being no Direct.

Starting to think there won't be a Direct, or if there will be one it'll be a Mini.

Also starting to look like there might not be a "big" game for February.

Welp, clearly no direct coming this month. I feel like we'll have to get one in February though, unless they're going to announce the FE:TH release date without a direct.

@GyroZeppeli To be fair Super Mario Bros. 2 is fantastic.

It's this.

Ladies and gentleman, I advise you book your tickets for this one and arrive early - the hype train waits for no-one.

Before we all start jumping at the thought there won't be a Nintendo Direct, let's just wait until the end of Wednesday to see if there are any announcements. I am however a little surprised that Nintendo chose to make these announcements at a time when a whole region is asleep. Just seems a little odd they didn't either wait a few more hours or made the announcement a few hours earlier.

With all these announcments to me that means there is NOT going to be a direct anytime soon

Q1 2019's still very barren and Yoshi being March 29th makes that very clear so while the announcements over the past few days does reduce the chance of a Direct it doesn't feel like a definite no.

A ''story trailer'' for a Yoshi game is basically just the opening of the game, right?

Dragons Dogma is getting a physical release in NA and EU.

Play-Asia already has listings up.

Hmmm. So it seems no big game for February, Yoshi in March and no 3DS stuff past March.

And down to just 2 NES games per month.

Whew boy this will be a slow year.

@Knuckles-Fajita If you are not careful, you will be list bombed... mostly with games you don't care about or games you don't see as big games.

@Therad Oh no not games I dont care about.

I mean a Direct could at bare minimum have also given us dates for the RE and FF stuff.

Thatd be something.

But this just feels like "yeah we got nothing".

I figured theyd have something for that last push to 20m but a Yoshi game at the last possible second?

@Octane Hey don't you knock the very epic Wooly Yoshi lore! It's very deep!

@Knuckles-Fajita I maintain they will stop at 17-18 mil (which I don't see as a bad number by any means). they have an investors meeting in the end of the month, that should tell most of the story.

The usual Direct announcement time has passed. Looks like no Direct this week which is understandable given the Yoshi, Kirby and NES news.

@Tsurii Gonna need a puppy bushel if you watch the gameplay, trust me. 😂

I’ll probs get it, I skipped wooly world so it’s been a good while since I played a yosh.
