Chance they shadow drop Skyward Sword in 90 minutes?

I don't think they'll shadow drop it but I expect it to release in the next few months.

Actually anyone feeling the hype, go read that reddit list.

At this point it's just healthy to go in with expectations low.

I'll say this one more time, in the vain hope that someone is paying attention: The leaker *explicitly* states this is a partial list.

That leaked list
cant be all of it unless they spend 20 mins on SS HD and play an entire 18 holes of Mario Golf

I don't even recognize half of those titles from the Reddit 'leak'

...and the ones I do recognize, meh.

Maybe this is good. I probably needed to lower my expectations

Within the framework of it being the first direct in a year plus, that leak list is preeeeeeeeeeeety average. Let's hope there's more.

If that post is true and it is the majority of the direct, I'm sure that about 90%+ of people are gonna be very disappointed

I don't think there's ever been a direct where there hasn't been a constant stream of people telling us how disappointed they are for the entire stream duration and a long time afterwards.

Just spoilers on the level of reaction
Surely if it's 50 minutes there is more than what is detailed in that post lol. If not... ruh roh.

That leaked list cant be all of it

That could easily be 50 minutes depending on how you you stretch out time, but...

I'll say this one more time, in the vain hope that someone is paying attention: The leaker *explicitly* states this is a partial list.

Yeah, he's saying it's a partial list anyway.

People are forgetting the most important part of most Nintendo Directs: the horrible disappointment afterwards and feeling dumb for being so hyped about it in the first place.

I'm here for the full experience baybeeeee

At this point I'd recommend anyone that doesn't want to be spoiled just step away from the internet for the next hour

I've been keeping an eye on hype levels and they seem extremely high, especially in this forum. I've seen compiled list of 'bottom of the barrel' expectations and this list is pretty much that or maybe even a bit worse. Match that with the first main line direct in 1+ years and the length of 50 minutes and you got yourself even more disappointment. Let's hope theres more

I doubt that the things in that post constitute more than like, 20 minutes. And that's being generous. A lot of them seem like stuff you rush through in the highlights section, with maybe one or two warranting a longer focus

Assuming its the "news headline" style, I just cant see it

I have no idea what that means. There's enough games in that list that if you spend a few minutes on each you could easily get 50 minutes if you wanted. But as stated, the guy is saying it's a partial list anyway, so it's not a big concern, though I imagine it's going to take up a lot more time than people are going to be happy about either way.
