Yes. "Jelly".

Nintendo UK giving stress ball with ARMS

I think a Pachinko Football game could be fun

Yeah we're definitely getting Japanese third party support. Plus Indies up the wazoo, so it's just like you say the AAA publishers in the west holding back

Rundown of new info July 21st launch New mode: Salmon Run. Hordes amiibo functionality. Saves certain looks and loadouts for you to take to over Switches, may also give you new gear. Three new amiibo featuring the new look inklings Details of the new campaign to come later

Right, so a rundown of things we know At least 10 characters Crapload of specials 4 player mode Online features Special yellow JoyCons June 16th

I think they have a chance. However, due to how Nintendo did the Switch launch, we just won't see them until the end of this year/middle of next year. Most developers didn't get dev kits until towards the end of last year. It's just not that feasible for them to get it done.

Not an amazing Direct, but a solid one to tide us over until E3. I'm happy. Wish there was Pokémon spinoffs in it, but happy regardless.

Pokémon Shuffle Switch would be hilarious

PokéPark Switch would be nice

I'd actually be surprised if we hear nothing about Pokkén by September Especially since... 2 years ago, Pokémon Rumble World came out 4 years ago, Pokémon Rumble U came out 6 years ago, Pokémon Rumble Blast came out 8 years ago, Pokémon Rumble came out.

Having just started a new generation on 3DS, it's a weird thing. Typically, Game Freak don't like shifting device until a new generation (which would be 2019), but this may change it. They'd have a lot of compatibility stuff to have to deal with first. I could see it being 3DS and Switch though. I'm expecting Pokkén or Pokémon Rumble here though

Yeah, and now it's clear that UK is the only market that's not loving the Switch, they're punishing us :p

There are only a handful of times that are good for all three regions. This is, strangely, one of them. The other is afternoon for us which is early morning in America and late night in Japan. Whatever is picked, someone gets screwed.

They're in development. Seriously, people have such weird recollection of how other devices launches go. This is not that different.

Nope. It's: Original Cap Pikachu Hoenn Cap Pikachu Sinnoh Cap Pikachu Unova Cap Pikachu Kalos Cap Pikachu Alola Cap Pikachu or, generally just "Ash's Pikachu"

That's a bit of a stretch. For one, Splatoon isn't a remake. It's a sequel. Second, people doubted Splatoon's selling power, and yet it sold really well. Don't count ARMS out yet.

Here are my hopes/expectations 35-48 minute Direct Around 10 minutes of Splatoon 2 -Gameplay Modes -Story -amiibo -Launch Date Around 10 minutes of ARMS -Gameplay Modes -Story -amiibo -Launch Date Around 15-28 minutes of everything else -Virtual Console -Pokémon spin-off (Pokkén, Rumble, Dungeon etc.) on Switch -Pikmin 3DS -Mario Kart 8 -Ever Oasis -Possibly Fire Emblem Warriors trailer -Zelda amiibo -Localisations (Miitopia, Monster Hunter XX, Yo-kai Watch 2 Shinuchi etc.) -Indie Sizzle Reel -First Party Announcement -Surprise #1 -Surprise #2 -Animal Crossing Mobile Direct announcement Nothing major, but still good stuff.

Na it just had their boxart. Based on anime's progression, we're nowhere near done with Gen 7 so no it won't be standalone. Whatever comes next is still Gen 7

Seriously though, I hope for and am expecting Pokkén Tournament, either an enhanced port or a sequel.

ORAS never got a Direct. ORAS got a random video in a random afternoon of a random Wednesday in May 2014, with no (official) heads up or anything.

But is not exclusive to. It will give stuff for other Switch and 3DS games. We've never had a Nintendo Direct that hasn't had at least one new reveal. Hopefully they don't buck this trend.
