The Nintendo Needs To Get Their Shit Together in 2021 Thread™

[KaizokuJinbei]

Unfortunately I will likely be at work so I might not catch this one

[MetaMario]

What happens, happens.
FE16 trailer?

[RoboBlue]

Hopefully we see the 3DS version of Dragon Quest 11.

[GetsugaZoro]

I was just thinking I was due for a dose of disappointment.

Let's place our bets for things they DON'T talk about tomorrow:

- No Metroid Prime 4 News
- No Pokemon News
- Yoshi will get a Release WINDOW but nothing else concrete
and, of course:
- No Virtual Console
But also
- No telling us they've officially scrapped the concept of the Virtual Console in favor of classic edition consoles and giving us 3 NES games a month with paid internet, so we can finally just move on.


In fact, predicting how it'll go:

- 15 minutes dedicated to Labo, showing they've been working on that non-stop instead of giving us things we want like the Virtual Console.
- 5 minutes talking about Mario Tennis Aces, which actually does look good, but we already know about it
- 5 Minutes really quick recapping everything else we already know is coming
- 5 Minutes of Reggie and Bill just pointing at the audience and laughing at us. Just 5 straight minutes of laughing at us for hoping for anything.

That's a pretty good prediction, I assume the EU one will go about the same, but with Shibata taking Reggie and Bill place.

I hope for Fire Emblem

I expect nothing.

[Johnny B. Decent]

Give me Fire Emblem or go to hell.

[Mumbo]

Well obviously there won't be any Pokemon news. It'll get its own reveal in a couple months. I'll just assume Gen 8 is coming in November and leave it at that.

Not sure how many Wii U games there are left to port over besides the great big obvious one (Smash). Hope we see some Bayonetta 3 and of course I'll take anything for Fire Emblem Switch, even just a title and release window.

Gamexplain did a video, it was like tokio mirage sesions (Persona Emblem), Xenoblade X, the not quite 3d marios, Captain Toad, the zelda ports..

[Noqanky]

Classic moment when it's a 30 minute direct and GameXplain does a 41 minute discussion video.

[Halfmetal-lich]

Give me Fire Emblem or go to hell.

Preach it brother.


And I also look forward to a 3 hr video for a 30 min persentation, which will mostly involve rapid nintendo fans making shocked faces, or screaming loudly about how the company is dead.

Be careful it might be another dodgy remake or another game split into three seperate parts you have to buy individually.

[Johnny B. Decent]

Be careful it might be another dodgy remake or another game split into three seperate parts you have to buy individually.

The only dodgy remake was Shadow Dragon, New Mystery of the Emblem and Shadows of Valentia were just fine.

Hell, a Genealogy remake would be great.

[Green_vs_Red]

New Mystery of the Emblem

Nintendo didn't seem to think so being it was never released outside of Japan.

Shadows of Valentia were just fine.

Wouldn't know personally between burned out on Fates and that the game retained some elements from the original gaiden (and old school Fire Emblem in generall)
wasn't all that interested in it

[maxterdexter]

The direct is in 10 minutes, in an hour, or was it that underwhelming that the internet is silent about it?

[Coookie]

It's in an hour .

[KageKageKing]

At least we'll have a new One Piece chapter tomorrow.

That's why we are all here in the first place, right?

[Wintermute]

OP chaps might feel rare. But not as rare as N-directs, so, OP chap is just a plus for now :D

[maxterdexter]

Mario showed up in Google Maps reminded me of the new Mario Kart mobile game, while the "M" word wasn't said on the announcement, it could be part of it.

[KageKageKing]

Seven minutes left.

--- Update From New Post Merge ---

[Sano]

Here we go. And it's begins.
