to be fair, even if you didn't skip Wii U there's only one game on this new line up that's a Wii U port, Pikmin 3, I imagine Prime Tilogy will be more like a remaster. last year had like 5 Wii U ports for comparison(Bayo 1/2, DK, Captain Toad, Hyrule Warriors) and like 6 original games(Kirby, Octopath, Tennis, Mario Party, Pokemon, Smash). This year, assuming what King Zell said is correct, that would be 2 Wii U ports(NSMBU, Pikmin), 1 Wii port(Metroid), and 10 original games(Ex Machina, Fire Emblem, AC, Yoshi, Luigi's Mansion, Marvel UA3, Mario Maker 2, Town, Zelda, Pokemon). side by side this year just looks way stronger to me, regardless if you owned a Wii U or PS4.

So what does everyone think? Is Animal Crossing gonna be in this direct?
Nope no wii ports yet, while the Prime Trilogy does hold up better in higher resolutions than most games from that time, it would still be a real shame if they literally just upped the resolution, updated the controls, and released it. Hopefully they at least update the textures.True.
On the subject of the Wii port, have we had any other Wii ports this gen? I certainly hope they've done work on making it look good.

Go Vacation was a Wii game.Nope no wii ports yet, while the Prime Trilogy does hold up better in higher resolutions than most games from that time, it would still be a real shame if they literally just upped the resolution, updated the controls, and released it. Hopefully they at least update the textures.
EDIT: actually I guess the HD Zelda games were Gamecube and Wii ports, hopefully they handle Metroid in a similar fashion as I thought those were pretty good.
King Zell said so (and that date seems to be backed up by others). If you need a summary of the other information dropped today, here you go:I've been busy and haven't been following this thread to much, how do we know it's the 13th?
Zell (with some assistance from Emily and Nate) went crazy and dropped a nuke in this thread.
- Direct next week (13th).
- Metroid Prime Trilogy, Mario Maker 2, Pikmin 3 (port) and BoxBoy! are happening (and the former will possibly be in the Direct).
- Doubled down on 2D Zelda existing and releasing this year.
- Pikmin 4 restarted development at some point, but it still exists.
- Third-Party support will improve this year; especially Japanese stuff. Some unpredictable surprises as well.
- Nate specifically mentioned that Kingdom Hearts was being tested/considered. Not 3 though.

I mean they rarely do Directs on Wednesday for Japan which is Tuesday for America.
I laughed more than I should had.
:) Thanks for enjoying lol.
Well, tell that to the couple of fellas who acted like I was on drugs or something for thinking of Maker 2... if I could remember which topic was that on.? People have been expecting Mario maker switch since before the system came out
Also so the Americans are on the same page...the direct would be announced at 9 am Eastern, not 10 am Eastern. It's because we're not in Daylight Savings Time and because of that the announcement would be at 9 am Eastern.
I'd rather have a new Metal Gear Solid collection (with Twin Snakes, 2, 3 and Peace Walker at the very least) come to the Switch and other platforms, but V could easily come along as well.Check the scenario:
The Direct opens with a voice over:
"Wow! It's been a long time since the last Direct. Kept you waiting, huh?"
Internet explodes.
MGSV surprise release.
Boom. History is made.

It's most likely Wednesday for America/Thursday Japan.
I guess they could do a direct Wednesday morning in America, just before Wednesday ends for Japan.
Except for Pokemon, none of the announced or rumored games excite me. I still own and play my older consoles on a regular basis, so I have no interest in purchasing ports of games I already own. Moreover, remasters are often inferior to their original counterparts.
As for Super Mario Maker 2, I am ambivalent. On the one hand, I have been enjoying YouTube playthroughs of the more devious user-created levels, so that's cool. But I have no interest in playing them myself nor in making my own. I also think that Nintendo would better serve the series by creating a new 2D Super Mario that recaptures the creative spirit of older titles - these newer games look and feel mechanical. The Mushroom Kingdom and the lands Mario zips through need to be interesting again.
What I want out of Nintendo are more memorable adventures. From what has been revealed about their announcements so far, I think I will be disappointed.
There's going to be plenty of memorable adventures. I'm tired of seeing this types of posts. Luigi's Mansion 3 and 2D Zelda can give you that.What I want out of Nintendo are more memorable adventures. From what has been revealed about their announcements so far, I think I will be disappointed.
I feel pretty confident that Fire Emblem, Luigi's Mansion, 2D Zelda, new Monolith IP, Bayonetta 3, and Platinum/Kamiya game will be "memorable adventures", but I guess we'll see.
I want more switch announcements from Miss but I'm worried because they're taking on big project like trailsi hope we have more details on bayonetta 3, like how it's restarting development from scratch with retro studios.
