Saved for e3 imho.
Dreaming Is good, my hopes to be shattered: sekiro switch, elden ring announced also for switch, trails of cold steel 3 switch.
Would be a nice surprise if we get
GTA 5, a CoD game, Assassins Creed Odyssey, MP Trilogy, Wonderful 101,
KH3 I feel like they would hype it up more instead of a sudden release out of no where. Definitely not getting any Zelda Remasters when Awakening is out next month.

No shit a direct is coming soon. Out of all the insane direct pattern tracking theories, the Indie Direct followed be a proper direct in under 2 weeks has always the most sensible and accurate of em all. And yeah this is going to be the "Big" One for lack of better words. I mean consider where the Switch is right now, software wize:
-Most console Flagship Series have seen 1 game
-Most HandheldnFlagship Series have seen a release or are seeing one this year.
-BotW2, Bayo 3, Metroid Prime 4, and SMTV are the only undated project from Nintendo that are currently announced. What this means is we are getting close to something more formal, at least for the 3rd parties published by Nintendo.
-Only 1 Title set for release in 2020 and it has a release date.
So what does this all mean? 2020 has no actual slate and they have to start announcing stuff soon for the next calendar year, which is likely this direct, and whatever they do announce is gonna be something more deep in their vault of IPs or a sequel to somethong already released. Which is why its a big one, not just in quantity but in terms of surprises.

No More Heroes 3 is likely Nintendo published as well for 2020.
But yes, we should be getting at least 2 games dated for either December, January, February for sure. Possible more hinted at for first half of 2020.
We hoe have three linea of circunstantial evidence converging:
- Early september is typically the time for a direct
- A Nindies presentation just happened
- Gamestop SKUs have appeared for unannounced titles
Seems like we could definitely expect a direct soon. My bet is September 5th.
We will see a lot of different things probably, but I hope to see one of the following:
- Monolith Soft new game trailer
- BOTW 2 second trailer
Beyond that, hopefully some more good third party surprises!

Ah forgot NMH3, I would definitely assume Suda struck some deal with Nintendo for it. But yeah my point still holds about the relatively mysterious 2020, this time last year we already had some sort od good idea, and doubly so after the September Direct, about what exactly 2019 will look like. Only additions made after Sept 2019 were MM2, Astral Chain, and Link's Awakening. Now we are looking at perhaps 3 fully new announcements for tbis direct and god knows how many for the January/February one. Good lord is that one gonna be a bombshell.
Also Ultimate Alliance 3 which came at Game Awards. But this upcoming direct should be stellar
This! Even if the iceborne is close i also want a MH exclusive for switch.
Am I delusional to hope for more BotW 2? I guess we're only going to see more of it closer to the end of the year
From memory, the biggest first party announcements from the September 2018 Direct were Luigi's Mansion 3, Animal Crossing, and Isabelle for Smash. Third parties had heaps of shit, mostly old ports, but stuff like "here's nearly every Final Fantasy you fucks".
So far, in 2019, every general direct or indie presentation has been a slam dunk as far as I'm concerned. Let's hope that the trend continues.
Assuming MH Switch even exists, i don't see them revealing it before Iceborne is released.
We're still missing Crystal Chronicles from that reveal, so i see the release date being revealed in this direct, assuming it's not delayed to 2020. Honestly,i'd be stoked if we got Final Fantasy 1-6, and the 13 trilogy announced for the Switch as well; and of course a FFT HD remaster.
I know this should be joke list, but around 50% of that list could easily come to Switch.
More games for rest of the year and some staffs for 2020.
Basically all titles I hope/want Nintendo will bring in HD to Switch.
If there some chances that Far Cry 3 or 4 can come to Switch?
I'm with you here. Things are really starting to click for Nintendo this generation.
If Nintendo can always deliver presentations like this year then they've got it made.
Boggles the mind that Nintendo just keeps getting better. Can't imagine how great the Switch successor will be.
Those were the biggest, but we also got New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe, Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn, and some update info for Splatoon 2 and Mario Tennis Aces.
I hope the sunshine speculation isn't about a remaster. Why anyone would want the worst 3d mario remastered when they could have any of the others is beyond me.
Isle delfino dlc for odyssey would have been nice, but it's way too late for a big laid dlc campaign for it, surely?

Why should they announce their 2020 lineup already in September?
I guess we will see more from the games, that were already announced. And some smaller games that will launch along the Switch Lite. I'm hoping for a soon release of Sayonara Wild Hearts.

At least 1-2 titles for 2020. TOWN was revealed in the september 2018 direct, also Animal Crossing and Luigi's Mansion 3
It could be a Sunshine mode for Mario Maker 2 as well. There's one mode missing there.
I think we've gone pretty in-depth with most of them already.
That would be an interesting choice over... well, a lot of things.
With the exception of Dark souls remastered, I wonder if Fromsoft is bothered with the Switch. It would be nice to have Sekiro on Switch.
-ona 5 Scramble?
Yeah I'm waiting for more from that too.
As cool as a Royal port would be I'm not currently expecting it.

If I had to guess, Super Maroo Odyssey-Uncharted Kingdoms. 3 new Kingdoms including Isle Defino. Alternatively some sort of Wii U Port.
Now if I had to guess any other reveal:
-Metroid 5
-Something Monolith
-Pikmin 4
Those will be the 3 major reveals of the direct, 1 st Party Wise. 3rd Party Wise as a tradition of sorts this September will be the Capcom apology tour, much like Square Enix unloading nearly every Final Fantasy onto the Switch last September.
Give me my Xenoblade X port, Nintendo. I'm a couple of hours into replaying it and it's a nightmare - the gamepad's taken a battering at the hands of the oldest of my two boys over the years and the battery is absolutely knackered. Finding a replacement for either/both would cost more than buying a full price port.
Edit: seeing as we're chucking all our hopes/dreams in here, give me a new Monster Hunter. Chuck in some of the improvements from World but otherwise keep it classic. Probably an unpopular opinion but despite a lot of improvements, World lost a lot of personality and variety in its persuit of western audiences.

Or just some random marketing post that used Mario game names for fun? I don't get why some people think the mention of a game name is an indication that a sequel or a remaster is bound to happen, most of the times it means nothing.
I hope we get a teaser for a new 2D Metroid, which if I had to guess I'd say it is being developed by MercurySteam.
I'd be shocked if Sakamoto isn't writing and producing Metroid 5 alongside MercurySteam who would be developing it based on their work with Samus Returns. Shit I'd be even more shocked if Samus Returns doesn't see an HD re-release on the Switch. Game deserves attention.
