I’m a fan, it’s always a surprise and a good thing to discuss. It’s more exciting and potentially more profit for Nintendo as some gamers will plan their spending
Here’s a stupidly naive opinion- Nintendo is secretly revamping the eshop to reveal a whole bunch of games and features that will be announced at a Direct soon.
Still trying to 100% Slay the Spire and slowly working my way through Neon White, a game that requires too much in terms of perfection. Not much on the Switch to get excited about atm, hoping for a proper Direct soon.
Looking forward to giving this game a go but I was hoping the next batch of N64 games would be announced in a Direct- we still haven’t had a proper one
@Moonsorrow999 Answer- there’s nothing wrong with saying ‘I don’t know but it seems likely’. Not everything has to be black and white. I’m on this poll because I want to be and I’ll answer how I like, deal with it.

Re: Sonic Frontiers Will Apparently Take The Series' Narrative To New Heights
Yeah, if you could give us a demo or release date, that’d be grrrreat
Re: My Nintendo Store Down For Maintenance, Possibly For Weeks (EU)
@Freakservo that’s why I qualified that statement as a ‘stupidly naive opinion’

Re: Bayonetta 3 Trailer Confirms Launch For This October
A proper Direct would still be nice.
Re: Review: Klonoa Phantasy Reverie Series - A Classic Platforming Pair Worth Catching Again
I’d argue the price is too high.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (July 9th)
@Scarko I forgot about that!

Re: Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Gets An Eight-Minute Overview Trailer
@CorePrideX an opinion you don’t agree with must be bait. Of course.

Re: Nintendo Is Adding Pokémon Puzzle League To Switch Online's Expansion Pack
Looking forward to giving this game a go but I was hoping the next batch of N64 games would be announced in a Direct- we still haven’t had a proper one
Re: Nintendo Reveals A New And Colourful Splatoon 3 Switch OLED
We'll hopefully get some real news next week
Re: 'The DioField Chronicle' Launches In Japan This September, Demo Coming August
So it’s Triangle Strategy.
Re: Four Sega Genesis / Mega Drive Games Have Been Added To Switch Online's Expansion Pack
Hehe, Willy Wars. Sounds hard.
Re: Talking Point: So, What Did You Think Of Nintendo's June Mini-Direct?
Was a good Direct but seemed like a tease as Nintendo must know its fans are waiting for more first party game news
Re: XIII Remake Is Finally Coming To Switch In September
I liked this game, wasn’t amazing but got more criticism than it deserved
Re: Rhythm Arcade Game 'Loud' Takes You From The Basement To The Big Stage This July
Reminds me a bit of Gitaroo Man. I miss Gitaroo Man.
Re: Sonic Frontiers Introduces Mysterious New Character, Here's Your First Look
When it says ‘holiday’, is it referring to summer or around Xmas?
Re: Gallery: Sega Shares Stunning New Screenshots Of Sonic Frontiers, Out On Switch Holiday 2022
‘Holiday 2022’ is a bit vague
Re: Watch: Nintendo Direct Mini: Partner Showcase
Persona!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And to a lesser extent, Nier Automatica.
And to an even lesser extent, some random rpgs I might try
Re: Poll: What Are You Hoping To See In The Nintendo Direct Mini?
Some unexpected game ports would be good

Re: Poll: Do You Think We'll Get A Nintendo Direct Next Week?
Glover!!!!!!!
I’m just hoping for something odd and unexpected, like a new Mystical Ninja game
Re: Poll: Do You Think We'll Get A Nintendo Direct Next Week?
@Moonsorrow999 not everything is a yes/no situation, it’s natural to hedge your bets
Re: Atlus Announces Persona And Shin Megami Tensei Plushes, Including A Cuddly Morgana
Atlus, if you bring the actual Persona games to Switch I’ll buy two plushes
Re: Sega Is Teasing A New Game, Reveal Happening Soon
Wow a lazy clone of Fortnite/Apex/Overwatch whichever you think is closest. Thanks Sega.
Re: Zelda Inspired Adventure Title 'XEL' Gets A Firm Release Date
Looks a bit like Deaths Door
Re: Review: Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes - Musou Magic That Ranks Among The Best
Meh, the demo was dull, this review is not convincing me otherwise
Re: Video: We Haven't Had A Nintendo Direct Yet, But That's Fine
Nintendo could just tell everyone there won’t be a Direct any time soon. Would be a shame but at least we’d know.
Re: A Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Direct Will Be Airing This Wednesday
You’ve raised my hopes and dashed them expertly, Nintendo. Bravo!
Re: Horror RPG Omori Releases This Week On Switch, Devs Announce New Content
How much will it be?
Re: Video: We Make Some Wild Not-E3 Nintendo Direct Predictions
Mischief Makers on Switch, a Zelda dating sim and Links Crossbow Training 2. Dream big.
Re: Sega Confirms Sonic Frontiers Won't Be Delayed, Says Fans "Don't Understand" It
Blaming the fans isn’t the best marketing strategy; I was excited for the game at first but the gameplay footage has made me more sceptical
Re: Persona 3, 4, and 5 Seemingly Confirmed For Everything But Switch
There should be a bookmaker for gaming issues- 5/1 that the Switch gets ports of Persona?
I don’t actually bet on things, but by betting against the ports happening I’d essentially win either way
Re: Rumour: Nintendo Direct To Take Place Later This Month
Would be nice if Nintendo announced their Directs ahead of time like most other game developers.
Re: Game Freak Had Plans For 65,535 Versions Of The Original Pokémon Game
@sanderev good point, and I’d love Nintendo to attempt to market Pokémon Feldgrau, Pokémon Mountbatten Pink, and Pokémon Burlywood.
Re: Game Freak Had Plans For 65,535 Versions Of The Original Pokémon Game
Are there that many colours/letters of the alphabet/ precious stones/weapons?
Re: Random: Fan-Made 'Mother Direct' Airing June 12th - Get Ready For New Games, Projects And Exclusive Looks
@johnvboy it’s still possible- Nintendo do announce Directs at short notice. I think it’ll be the week after
Re: Infamous Stardew Valley-Inspired 'Super Zoo Story' Gets New Trailer
@pneumaticgnosis having the opinion of ‘you shouldn’t blatantly rip off a popular game’ is hardly bullying
Re: Infamous Stardew Valley-Inspired 'Super Zoo Story' Gets New Trailer
There’s a difference between ‘inspired by’ and ‘ripped off’. It’s good that the developers realised that and made changes
Re: 'Ground Divers' Is A Dig Dug-Like Mining Game Coming To Switch This Month
If it's not too pricey I'll give it a go
Re: Poll: What Did You Think Of The Summer Game Fest 2022 Opening Showcase?
I'm betting on a Nintendo Direct on the 22nd June. No real reason, just a guess.
Re: Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes Demo Drops Today
Meh, not impressed. It’s just Hyrule Warriors.
Re: Talking Point: Should Sonic Frontiers Be Delayed? We Discuss Its Bizarre Debut And Fan Reaction
Meh let’s give it a fair shake, it’s not finished yet
Re: Geoff Keighley Urges Fans To 'Manage Exceptions' For Summer Game Fest
What’s the point of that then?! Unless it’s a bluff.
Re: Summer Game Fest Publisher List And Details Announced, Nintendo Apparently Not Featuring
@Wilforce I’ll take that action, my friend
Re: Check Out The First Proper Gameplay Footage For Sonic Frontiers
I’m cautiously optimistic. Moreso after seeing these comments
Re: Summer Game Fest Publisher List And Details Announced, Nintendo Apparently Not Featuring
I’m calling it- there’ll be a Nintendo Direct on the last week of June
Re: Feature: How Video Games Can Be Brilliant For Your Mental Health
@Franklin give us a game, Nintendo man, give us a game tonight…..
Re: Feature: How Video Games Can Be Brilliant For Your Mental Health
This. It really helped during lockdown to escape to Stardew Valley, or to play Animal Crossing. I have a friend that had to shield during Covid, and it meant a lot to be able to play Tekken/Battlefront/Mario Kart/Dragonball Fighter Z with him. It made things seemed normal. One day video games will be discussed amongst adults without any stigma.
