BabyYoshi12 said:

This is much better than I thought it would be, in fact it’s better than a Direct in my opinion!

BabyYoshi12 said:

OMG! MEGA EVOLUTION ON POKÉMON GO!!! THIS IS THE BEST DIRECT EVER!!!

BabyYoshi12 said:

OMG! POKÉMON SNAP IS COMING TO THE SWITCH!!!

BabyYoshi12 said:

I’ll probably try Cafe Mix, but I don’t know if I’ll enjoy it. It’s on Switch though!

BabyYoshi12 said:

Pokémon Smile looks cute for younger kids.

BabyYoshi12 said:

I missed it, I’m watching it now!

rjejr said:

Oh well, that was amusing I guess, moving along...

mesome713 said:

Pokémon Snap!

rjejr said:

So, that was a commercial for a Pokemon Direct in 2 weeks? Where's the proper full Direct Nintendo!?!?

BoilerBroJoe said:

Honestly, if Nintendo Directs always ended with an announcement of the next Nintendo Direct, that'd be fantastic

And i'm absolutely going to brush my teeth today with Pokemon Smile. Why the hell not

Late said:

It was honestly better than I expected. Weird that they'd wait until next week to show more stuff. I guess it's something bigger then.

Hey i think this was okay, wasn't it? A cool puzzle game, giving fans the new Pokemon Snap they wanted and a lot of neat little extras for everyone

SmartNickname said:

they didn't finish a trailer in time so they had to delay it

tanaka2687 said:

Maybe some remakes announced separetly so not to take away from the DLC 'hype'/

mesome713 said:

Just got done brushing my teeth.

the_beaver said:

A Nintendo Direct on 24th??

Wants the 'zero aura' shiny but don't want to rebuy the garbage game to get it...

Bathroom pokemon time aside - Hyped for Snap!

Nookingtons said:

I want to brush my teeth with pikachu now

Kochambra said:

Pokemon Snap and Pokemon Smile made my day

Snap 2 was awesome but it's in development. And Zeroara is great news

Gasarakii said:

Like what would be the reason for that other than maybe a Direct?

Anyone running off to brush their teeth?

Anti-Matter said:

Next Pokemon Direct on next Wednesday

Great presentation!

jump said:

They announced the next announcement. Weird.

Jacob1092 said:

...Why are we waiting until next week?

That was a strong... Meh

Gasarakii said:

Waiting until next week after having this?

Slaz said:

I just wish they'd chill with the mobile games

rainbow_monkey said:

Well i like puzzle games and this looks fun, other than the mobile game character

Should I dislike this? I feel I am FORCED to like this uncanny experiences

Nookingtons said:

Pokemon Hygiene app for the stinky people

rjejr said:

So this is live but Paper Mario Origami was a sneak drop? Priories I guess.

this is the best reveal since that jump rope bunny game, killing it!

tanaka2687 said:

I had low expectations and they are most certainly being met.

Not gonna lie, that Dugtrio sandwich was pretty clever

>.< What are these reveals?!

Is this just mobile games this stream?

Slaz said:

rjejr said:

Nookingtons said:

Jacob1092 said:

Oooooh

@Brydontk hahahahaha

It’s goooo timeeeee

Octane said:

Yes

Jacob1092 said:

I'm not seeing anything yet.

Anti-Matter said:

Already started?

I hope they announce they are removing around 300 pokemon. there are just too many

A Nintendo Direct... Why, that's a name I haven't heard in a loooooong time

waheeeeey

A new Pokemon presentation can't by any chance mean that a Direct would follow soon surely...but man i would love that

Late said:

Can't say I'm excited about the DLC. Seems to me like they've already shown everything there's to see. I hope there's something else too.

Right. Hello everyone!

Jacob1092 said:

Blooper987, are you secretly Ryan Reynolds?

Let's Bloo this

Anti-Matter said:

1 minute

Blooper987 said:

please let detective pikachu 2 be announced

ReikoMortis said:

Cooking Mama: Pokemon Edition - Cook Your Pokemon XD

Jacob1092 said:

Pokémon x Animal Crossing anyone? I would love a grumpy Pikachu villager telling me about how he used to be homeless.

I would love an JRPG based on the mario Bros movie. haha

Nookingtons said:

I have a feeling they are going to show more of Isle of Armor. It just seems so underwhelming compared to Tundra Crown

Super Mario Movie: The Game

Anti-Matter said:

I'm surprised i found Pokemon Indonesia channel on Youtube

ReikoMortis said:

Star Tropics 3 is confirmed.

Jacob1092 said:

Octane, you are a treasure

Octane said:

Dark Souls 4

Jacob1092 said:

I didn't even get Sword or Shield. I'm just here for the outlandish suggestions of what else we might get

Anti-Matter said:

Pokepark 3?

626b said:

Pokémon Let's Go Sinnoh

While we're at it....Mario All Stars 2?

Nookingtons said:

Pokemon Let's Go Back To Sleep

ReikoMortis said:

Metroid 4

Pokemon Ultra Ultra Sun and Moon 2

Octane said:

But I bet Nintendo will screw this up anyway

Octane said:

Throw in a Knack 3 for good measure and we're all set

Octane said:

I mean, Pokemon, Pikemon, Pikmin, it's obvious

Octane said:

Pikmin 4 is a given IMO

Jacob1092 said:

Oh yeah, I'm sure I heard someone mention Pokken 2 actually, that would be quite cool

pokermans news!

whatyoulookingat said:

and smash dlc ofc

whatyoulookingat said:

mario collection

Anti-Matter said:

Hello

Jacob1092 said:

Pikmin 4 seems pretty obvious, no?

Octane said:

Pikmin 4

AndyRogan said:

Maybe they will announce more updates for Pokemon Go, especially with Go Fest coming soon

AndyRogan said:

Expecting a preview of the DLC, then its out after the presentation.

Gasarakii said:

Hey everyone

Jacob1092 said:

Goooood afternoon folks.

whatyoulookingat said:

don't buy the dlc

MysteryCupofJoe said:

Here is hoping for a Jessie and James spin off.

Yosher said:

Not expecting that to be announced of course.

Yosher said:

I just want Pokémon Snap 2 honestly because a return to form for the main series is unlikely and Snap 2 needs to happen already.

Yosher said:

Ah yes. Let's see what Pokémon ''goodness'' they have in store for us today.

mesome713 said:

Let's go Pokemon.

Same here! Hope no one expects Diamond and Pearl remakes, that will only be announced after expansion pass has concluded

MaxlRoseGNR said:

Very excited for the DLC!
