I hope we'll get an Earthbound collection for the switch with all three Mother Games. But I think it's more likely we'll get more info on the next Advance Wars game, maybe more info on the Mario Movie, or even the oft-rumored Mario Kart 9.
-
Other than a release date for Breath of the Wild 2, I'm not sure I'm holding out for too much...I'd be interested in that rumored Metroid Prime collection happening, I'm not super fond of the 2D games, but I remember generally liking the first one, even if it's an odd game in terms of being a first person shooter, but maybe they could have some alternate controls...or they won't, Nintendo isn't a big fan of options a lot of the time, but who knows lol
I guess if I had to pick something crazy, I'd love for that "Nintendo Kart" concept to exist, or to get a Diddy Kong Racing 2, give me a more exciting kart racer game.
-
I can see they just skipping a common Nintendo Direct this year is that means the one they need to make in June have more content.
I expect more stuff from Square Enix and exclusive smaller games for Switch, more Cloud versions from high budget games and more stuff we couldn't even expect (Not necessarily big games).
From there I wish they could finally port Star Fox Zero to Switch, other stuff like Metroid or similar feels unlikely.
-
I feel like 3/4 of all Nintendo Directs are pretty disappointing, but this one will probably be fairly light on content with the E3/Summer Direct having more of what people actually want to hear about. Here are my predictions:
-they spend at least a third of the Direct talking about already released titles, mostly Pokemon Arceus.
-They spend a decent amount of time talking about and showing the new Kirby game
-A new trailer and vague Summer 2022 release date trailer for Splatoon 3
-Indie game/E shop exclusive rapid fire trailer
-Mention of BotW2 coming out in 2022 still but no new footage, just a "we're not quite ready to show more about this yet"
-New first party Nintendo game reveal trailer, my money is on Mario Kart 9
If that last part actually happens, that alone with would make it a success in my book.

I've heard it might not be mario kart 9, it might be smash kart aka mario kart with characters from multiple game series and stages.

That would be pretty cool too. I feel like Mario Kart 8 was a soft Smash Kart since it had Animal Crossing, Zelda, and Splatoon characters too. I could definitely see them expanding this out to other franchise in 9, even non-Nintendo franchises.

I don't know how others feel about this but I don't like to speculate on Nintendo directs anymore, they're so unpredictable that going in with any expectations just feels like it will end in some kind of disappointment
-
Physical edition of Pocky and Rocky Reshrined

Nothing will ever, EVER beat the reveal of CHRIS PRATT as Mario. It made no sense (Still doesn't) but at the same time, I was so excited and happy to see it. I genuinely think Jack Black will do a great job, but as for Pratt... we'll have to see.
-
Since we are on topic...
I hope they finally announce something related to Donkey Kong, just like Namco with Pac-Man, it feels weird Nintendo is still hesitant to make something related with the (arguably) first character that helped them to put the company in the spotlight.
I couldn't mind another good Country game or finally another 3D one.
-
I would hope for more 2D Mario games.
-
Still hoping to see Twilight Princess HD on Switch. That said... I don't have any belief that Nintendo, Sony or any third party will show anything of interest to me for the next... well... from here on. I think modern gaming is dead for me and the best that gaming has to offer has already been released.
-
Same stuff I've been hoping to see for a while that we probably won't see:
-Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild 2
-New 2D Zelda
-3D Zelda Collection
-Metroid Prime 4
-New 2D Mario game
-Super Mario 3D World sequel
-
-3D Zelda Collection
What's funny is I own all the 3D Zelda games on at least one console, some of them I own multiple versions of. However, I'd still flip out if this was announced and buy it day one. I'm hopeless...

Less than an hour to go!

-3D Zelda Collection

It's just added convenience, like I don't keep all my consoles, I have a few retro systems, but I also don't have good space for everything, so collections that compile a bunch of games on top of maybe adding extra features, are wonderful. I'd be all for a nice 2D Zelda collection, or a 3D Collection, heck, I'd be up for just an Ocarina and Majora 3DS set just to have easy access to them and maybe some bonus improvements.
-
it ain't smash cart but 48 mario kart tracks for 25$ is not a bad deal. pretty suprised to see dlc with good prices lol
Mario striker my favourite mario sports series is finally back though that made my day ;D
-
Eh, the Direct was fine. I didn't get too much out of it until the Mario Kart DLC, which is neat, I might grab the game again since I sold it a year or two back, and Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is cool. I really liked Xenoblade Chronicles 2, but the trailer didn't do a lot for me.
-
I'm personally not sold on xenoblade 3 yet, seems to be a mix of xeno 2 and and xeno 1 in terms of characters. xeno 1 is more my jam compared to 2
Could be pretty sweet though. it will however always be exciting to explore the world like in every xenoblade game

That it looked more like Xeno 1 than Xeno 2 was actually a turn off for me lol All the characters seemed really bland and uninteresting. Sure Xeno 2 probably lays it on too heavy in being "ANIME", but it was fun. I dabbled in Xeno 1 for a short bit, but I was playing the really garbage 3DS port, so I've never gone back to it. I played Xenoblade Chronicles X for like 10 to 20 hours, but stopped, because the progression blockers in the story and kinda its whole structure wasn't great. Xenoblade Chronicles 2 I had a lot of fun with, even if the Gacha Blade setup was the worst idea. The world does look great in Xenoblade Chronicles 3 though, that could be enough for me.

I don't hate 2 it's still good, I do however prefer 1. the characters are likable, the funny moments are subtle but good and it's story was epic. it is one of my favourite rpg's of all time. the voice acting I really enjoyed aswell in this title, wasn't to great in xeno 2 for my taste.
The story and characters are a bit to much in 2 and I do get if people prefer that kinda style, it ain't bad and it did have some over the top funny moments. I was however personally expecting something more like xeno 1. While still good it wasn't something special like xeno 1 for me.
Plus the game is pretty slow paced in the earlier parts if where talking xeno 2. The flow in terms of gameplay I prefer in xeno 1 wich just goes into the action allot earlier. I also felt that strategy was more of a thing in xenoblade 1 compared to 2 them battle systems are quite different. Also the world in xenoblade 2 felt allot smaller compared to 1 wich was a bit dissapointing.
Xenoblade x was fun, while it's story and characters are utter garbage the gameplay and exploration where amazing allot of postgame aswell it's world is pretty huge. while it wasn't a game withouth flaws it was a very cool world to explore dare I say that I enjoyed it more than xeno 1 at times. one of the few exclusives left on wii u that are worth playing.
I do hope xeno 3 gets the expansive world of xenoblade x, would be an amazing game than if they could combine good story characters and the world of xeno X.

The story was the best thing about Xeno X to me lol It's why I stopped playing the game, because the story was pretty exciting, but all the side content and such was incredibly grindy and boring I thought, and they had the progression blockers to keep me from moving forward if I didn't grind up my level and do some other stuff first. Then they just added the cool mech, which I really liked, but almost felt like it broke the game with how powerful it made me. I don't know, that was like my first serious go with the series and there were parts I liked, but Xeno 2 sold me and played a lot into my enjoyment of the Switch within that launch year next to Super Mario Odyssey and Breath of the Wild.

I'm surprised because I didn't expect anything from it but I thought it was pretty good, a lot of games interest me.
In the end, there are quite a few games that will increase my collection.
I'm very hype about the new Kirby and I'm waiting to see for those ones :
Klonoa Phantasy Reverie Series
SD Gundam Battle Alliance
Taiko No Tatsujin : Rythm Festival
the ones I'm less sure about but I'm going to test :
Mario Strickers Battle League
Disney Speedstorm
Live A Live

Too many remasters and old games, but I am fine with it, I am not too interested in most new games released nowadays, anyway.
That being said, I am glad Mario Strikers came back and mostly like we remembered it, included the edgy artstyle.
Kirby looks great, and I am surprised Nintendo still has new things to do with their characters so they don't feel like they have nothing else to show.
Nintendo Switch Sports looks fun... but not paying 40$ for it, I assume a lot of people will buy it when the nostalgia for Wii Sports kicks in.
From there, I don't mind MK8 having DLCs, but I am looking forward for see the next Smash Bros and if Nintendo will actually reboot it or just make more DLCs.
Anyway.
Fine Nintendo Direct, I don't care about Xenoblade Chronicles 3, Splatoon 3 and Fire Emblems Warrios Three Hope's but it had content I can look forward.
My favorite announcement is that GetsufumaDen Undying Moon is now available.

Interesting. I LIVE for collections and remasters/remakes on Switch. It's becoming the ultimate gaming machine!
