Lets hope so. This was not the megaton start Nintendo needs to sell 20 million this year.
 
This would be incredible if true. As a standalone early year Direct, yesterday's mini was shit. But as a supplement to a full megaton-laden Direct, yesterday's mini would be a delectable appetizer.

A comment on reddit compared it with a lottery: If you win twice, first a million dollars and after a few weeks like 10,000 dollars, you don't feel that happy about the 10,000. But if you win 10,000 first and then the million it's just getting better.

I'm pretty sure they'll be something to talk about Yoshi since it's probably a title for the first half of the year and also quickly mention Bayonetta 1+2 for February and possibly Xenoblade 2 DLC for this month.

This mini felt like a ton of stuff too and basically covered the next 6 months, but the thought of a more full Direct has crossed my mind. A Nindies one too.

...what about E3?

I bet they are holding off Fire Emblem, AC, Pokemon and Metroid Prime 4 stuff for June. And that's not shocking at all. We have January to May covered. Notice that all the dates we got were March, May or Spring. Nothing about Summer and Fall. IMO that means they will announce a lot ot stuff at E3.

Id like to be pleasantly surprised. But tbh, I don't see it happened unless it's a highly focused direct on just one game or something. I think around E3 will be the next big direct/blowout.

Haha no doubt. If you announce Donkey Kong 3D Planet first, then no one will care about the Tropical Freeze port announcement. Gotta give the little fish their moment in the sun.

I doubt it will happen in January, it would make more sense for the next Direct to happen in February or March, with news on other titles that fill out Spring and Summer, there could be an indies direct too that might push this main direct til April. We should definitely expect one months before E3.

Thread locked for same reason the previous thread was locked.

Once there are any credible rumours or announcement, feel free to create a thread about that Direct specifically then.
