I don't expect a Direct very soon. The stakes for the rest of the year are set. Every month has one major title. So I think it will be one more Direct this year, but I would expect it in November or something like that.
@Alex0714 Yes that is indeed my darn problem. And you know why? Because I'm sick of big version jumps without anything happening. A major version jump suggests major changes. But that's simply not the case at Nintendo. And that is why we are at Switch Firmware 8.1.0 which is in the same sad state in terms of features as version 2.0.0 was at launch in March 2017.
@nessisonett That's not what I meant. New characters are always welcome. "Hero" ist just not my taste.
And about the version number.... Should they count the first number up everytime a new challenger approaches? Welcome to version 12.8.5.0 with zero changes since launch.
Same for the Wii U. Make no mistake I love that console but the YouTube app was half ass at best. I prefere using the Wii U YouTube (second screen) experience via the webbrowser. View your stuff at the big screen and browse through the web with the GamePad.
@J-Plap Because you complete most shrines in 5-10 minutes. Dungeous could have took an hour or even more. Which is way more... in dept... I strongly prefere dungeons but in the end BotW is an absolute jackhammer of a game. Enjoyed it for multible hundreds of hours.
@Heavyarms55 How can you defend this update policy... We are in year three and we have gotten not one single relevant feature. No folders, no apps, no browser.... I haven't even talked about that joke of an eShop....
Stability or not... These updates do annoy for a very reason!
Bad news, folks! I do own the japanese cartridge of the collection and it does not get the update which includes the translations. I tried everything from deleting the updates, redownload them, I even deleted the save data in the Nintemdo Online Cloud.

Re: Check Out The New Features In The Smash Bros. Ultimate Version 4.0 Update
@UmbreonsPapa A little silly to call these mediocre optimisations a full fetched "first number" (4.0.0.0) update... Don't ya think pal?
But we are familiar with that in the case of the console firmware updates, aren't we?
Re: Check Out The New Features In The Smash Bros. Ultimate Version 4.0 Update
Not excited at all.
The additions are nonsense.
The character is not interesting.
I'll sit here and wait for Banjo.
Re: 3DS YouTube Service Ends In Japan This September
The app was sloppy and uncomfortable.
Same for the Wii U. Make no mistake I love that console but the YouTube app was half ass at best. I prefere using the Wii U YouTube (second screen) experience via the webbrowser. View your stuff at the big screen and browse through the web with the GamePad.
