Hero-of-Time Posted September 11, 2017 Posted September 11, 2017 The rumours were true! Late night showing for us. 1
Hero-of-Time Posted September 11, 2017 Posted September 11, 2017 Also.... Quote The #NintendoDirect includes new info on #SuperMarioOdyssey & will be nearly 45 mins long. Will you stay up late with us on Wednesday? I hope they don't go spoiling stuff for us! Loving the lengthy run time, though.
Serebii Posted September 11, 2017 Author Posted September 11, 2017 If they run it with a similar pace as the April Direct, which had like 30 games in 30 minutes...

Serebii Posted September 11, 2017 Author Posted September 11, 2017 Japanese Direct is 50 minutes long
Dcubed Posted September 11, 2017 Posted September 11, 2017 (edited) I'm betting on an unveil of Animal Crossing Switch. We're very likely to see AC Mobile unveiled at Apple's keynote tomorrow and it's supposed to tie into an AC game for dedicated devices. The day after would be the perfect time for follow up information on how it ties into AC Switch. Ditto for Zelda mobile; it'll probably tie into BOTW's DLC Pack 2. Edited September 11, 2017 by Dcubed
Grazza Posted September 11, 2017 Posted September 11, 2017 11pm? Yes! I'll actually be able to watch it. 1

Either way, there's no need to show off anything mobile related during the Direct itself... That's what the Apple Keynote the day before is for As for other stuff we'll almost certainly see? Xenoblade 2 release date and an unveiling/release date announcement for the 25th Anniversary Kirby Game as well are surefire bets. It's kind of their last chance at this point if either are actually gonna come out this year. Edited September 11, 2017 by Dcubed

Sméagol Posted September 11, 2017 Posted September 11, 2017 Hmm. I'm getting worried. If the previous videos are any indication, they're going to show me even more stuff I want.. 1 1

This one's gonna be big! 1
Ronnie Posted September 11, 2017 Posted September 11, 2017 Wow, 45 minutes! And like Serebii says if they follow the frantic pace of their last Direct, it should be packed full of stuff I didn't think they'd spoiled much of Odyssey before now but I'm worried that'll soon change! Very excited though
Hero-of-Time Posted September 11, 2017 Posted September 11, 2017 I wonder if we will see anything from Platinum? They've teased Bayonetta a couple of times now.
S.C.G Posted September 11, 2017 Posted September 11, 2017 Excellent... *Tentatively clears "schedule" for Wednesday evening*
Ronnie Posted September 11, 2017 Posted September 11, 2017 Quote focusing on what's heading to Nintendo Switch and 3DS "in the coming months" Suggests Mario, Fire Emblem Warriors, Xenoblade, Metroid Samus Returns to be the main focus.

I'm expecting it myself. Ports of Bayo 1, 2 and TW101 all out by the end of the year as per the teases. Considering that they recently ported Bayo 1 and Vanquish to PC and are looking to make up for the shortfall that came from Scalebound's cancellation, it doesn't seem unlikely. Hopefully we'll also see them announce a new Switch game too! (A port of Vanquish for Switch wouldn't go amiss either) I don't ask for much do I? Edited September 11, 2017 by Dcubed
killthenet Posted September 11, 2017 Posted September 11, 2017 Sounds good. Expecting dates for Xenoblade and Skyrim but will be hoping for some details on virtual console and more OS features. Will probably just be in depth coverage of Mario, Metroid and Pokken and a little bit about SNES classic.

Clownferret Posted September 11, 2017 Posted September 11, 2017 I'm assuming they are going to be singing from the hilltops " we've got Fifa" with a demo download available after the direct
dazzybee Posted September 11, 2017 Posted September 11, 2017 I'm going to miss it I think, at Spurs game.... I'm kind of happy in a way because I don't want to see anything on Odyssey so I'll just get the highlights and watch the important bits. Animal crossing is a great shout! I still think a spring release makes the most sense so now would be a great time to unveil it. More 3rd party games I presume (Emily Rogers recently said people will be surprised how many AAA 3rd party ports are coming). But ultimately, like hero, OS update is probably what I want most - video recording, streaming apps, music, a MUCH BETTER shop, folders!!!!!!! and, we can dream, Virtual Console!!
Sméagol Posted September 11, 2017 Posted September 11, 2017 This got just announced.. A Ubisoft shooter from the makers of the Grow home games. Looks perfect for Switch, so I'm betting we'll see it in the Direct.
Ronnie Posted September 11, 2017 Posted September 11, 2017 Yeah an OS update is long overdue. I love how quick it is but some added functionality would be cool. Folders (why is it console manufacturers can't have this at release??), media apps, and an achievement system (long shot) would be great. Maybe throw in some new themes, eShop music etc. Not sure a Direct is the sort of place they would show all this though, seems more like a press release kind of thing.
