While the Sony showing was mostly a bust, Nintendo has some cool stuff coming that I can actually be excited for now that I own a Switch 2.
They are doing a 40th anniversary Zelda event which will most likely reveal Ocarina of Time, I can see the Zelda movie trailer here, and probably will announce the leaked Zelda Switch 2. I'm hopeful that we get a Twilight Princess/Wind Waker HD release, like put that out this or next month, and then put out Ocarina of Time for like November or December, this would be the greatest possible thing...My expectation is that they are just gonna put Twilight Princess and Wind Waker on NSO and make me very sad lol
The Nintendo Direct is then apparently all about winter Switch 2 only stuff, so probably not huge reveals for 2027 stuff, but I'm sure we'll get something generally good here.

Ok, so aside from the Zelda themed Switch 2 system that's rumored, the ONE thing I've wanted Nintendo to announce is a port of Twilight Princess HD. I'd enjoy Wind Waker and the older Zelda games as well, but Twilight Princess is top tier for me and it's really head scratching as to why Nintendo hasn't ported it to the first Switch yet/if ever.
This Zelda Direct marks not just the 40th anniversary for the series, but the 20th anniversary for Twilight Princess. If it's ever going to happen, a port or remaster announcement would most logically occur at this event.
I won't hold my breath, but I'll hope.

It's baffling they never did on Switch 1, they are some of the I think absolute last games that are trapped on Wii U. I didn't know it was the 20th anniversary for Twilight Princess, which gives me a little more hope we could see it. I've been dying to replay Twilight Princess for a long time and it's been annoying that I can't easily do so. Just give them to me both in the Wind Waker/Twilight Princess HD bundle and I'll be as happy as can be.

I'm guessing this is 90% going to be about OoT Remake, but I'd love to see them port the 3DS remakes at some point. Obviously they won't do that, especially now since it would likely undermine the new remake's sales, but it's always been sad those have been locked on the 3DS all these years. I'd be happy for a port of TP and WW though as you guys pointed out. Also a teaser or a glimpse of the next, new mainline Zelda game would be fun.

Another big expectation is the first trailer for the upcoming Zelda movie. Seriously hoping they don't f it up.

I know what p WON'T be there, but I would be happy if it did show up. A New Wario Land or a port of Shake It!

Somehow.... amazingly.... they didn't announce Twilight Princess for Switch or Switch 2. They continue to ignore it, which completely baffles me. I guess 20th anniversary for a beloved entry means nothing to them.
That said, the Zelda themed Switch 2 system looks good and Ocarina of Time remake looks impressive. I'll see about preordering those for the family Christmas gift this year.
