If its a direct, I see an announcement by Friday with the ditect being on Tuesday/Wednesday. If its Wednesday it can be announced next Monday, but I feel an announcement on Friday with a direct Tuesday is more likely.

Nintendo Direct Speculation |OT|

I mean...for me it would be a game changer to finally have the camera behind the character and not a top-down game, because it comes with a full 3D experience. It's all I ask but I have few hope.
The Persona 5 announcement is gonna be done by Atlus themselves next month. If anything, we're due for a Pokémon Direct (to reveal Gen 8) & a separate Smash presentation for the 3.0 update.
That's all I ask for too. It's not much to ask. I'm sure I'll like the games. I like all Pokémon games.
I do feel it's too early to get a Pokemon direct and that will be saved for E3. That said I can see a smash 3.0 direct coming up in the next few weeks.
Y'all, we ain't getting a pokemon direct. What we will get is another announcement with them showing the studio around and then we will get the wireframe of one of the pokemon and then say bye bye for that game until July/August when afterwards we will be getting a video a week blowing out everything about the game until release.
I doubt it'll be revealed at E3, that's not how they normally reveal it.
The Q&A is at a kid-centric event with face painting, trading card trading and chances to take photos with Pikachu and Eevee. The Treehouse Q&A is going to have kids asking the Treehouse gang what their favourite Pokémon are, not deep dives into the NSO offerings.
If you're implying we're going to get a Gen 8 announcement the same way Pokémon Sun and Moon were announced, those two games were technically still announced by means of a "Pokémon Direct", even if it was mostly just a clipshow for the 20th anniversary.
It's not too early for a new Gen which usually gets announced early in the year.
Pokémon Sun and Moon- revealed February 26, 2016 (announced the titles)
Pokémon X and Y- January 8, 2013 reveal
Pokémon X and Y- January 8, 2013 reveal
Was it called a Pokemon direct? The video seems to have gone bye bye on official youtube pages so I can't check anymore.
Yep. People are massively overhyping that thing.
It was, yes. They also announced the release of the Gen I VC ports in the same Direct.
I agree with you. I think it's being overhyped (or looked into too much). I can see Pokémon being announced that week, but have nothing to do with Treehouse. That's like its own separate fun thing.

What I'll get in reality
just jokin of course
I really really really want a pokemon [Xenoblade, Monster Hunter or Dragon Quest]-based. It doesn't need to be mainline, could be a spin-off like Colosseum. There's an old thread here on ERA about Pokemon working as Xenoblade Chronicles 2 that is really amazing.
Buuuuuuut I don't believe it's happening any time soon.
If the Treehouse Q&A is just that... the kids at that event are gonna be like
They didn't specifically say that the more info would be Atlus presentation.
Maybe Octopath team although I think they will make a sequel of some sort. I'd say it's a new team. There have been few options within the company.
Speculation. Educated guesses. Fan wishes.
For whatever reason it's indeed no longer archived, but yeah, it was referred to as a Direct.

Nintendo UK never got the memo it seems, it's still on their channel.

man you chose the absolutely worst possible screen for DQXI in 3d mode lmao
Xenoblade and Dragon Quest are the two series Pokémon should naturally evolve into. Have their scope and their world design. Pokémon doesn't need to be fully open world. It can have segmented areas.
"Hey kids! Please meet some of our special guests, who help bring you your favourite games!"If the Treehouse Q&A is just that... the kids at that event are gonna be like
Frankly, I think they're using the Treehouse because the actual creators aren't native English speakers.
Indeed. People talk a lot about Pokemon's Breath of the Wild, but I don't think it should be the goal. A Xenomon Chronicles is all we need.

Is the horse taking a shit or is that supposed to be a tail?
I'm actually excited for a Smash Direct because it seemed like they teased what would be in the 3.0 update with 2 blurry screens.
One looked like it could be a new mode? Stage builder is back? The other looked like the stage select screen. Getting more old stages back?

Really dissapointed in ya all that there has not been a reset the clock gifjiffig since the thread has been reopened.
This thread is basicaly that in a nutshell.

they don't need to. this event isn't live streamed, so recording it and throwing subtitles on there for a global audience would be suffice
i agree. we got so much stuff and its clear that they dont have much until june except yoshi at this point. maybe we will see a labo game or something... since we have so many third party stuff im ot worried at all.
I don't think. If it's the same thing, we would know
Isn't the event live? How can they do subtitles then?
Arlo said the Direct was good. And tbh it sounded like he forced himself to say that. He said why didn't Nintendo show more. He was expecting AC and LM3.
But then he compared it to the Switch Presentation and how many games Nintendo showed there.
It's not good to have expectations like that. This isn't a reveal of a new system and Nintendo had to show all their games.

Arlo clearly wants to know more about Pikmin, and we didn't get any news on Pikmin. He made a video about a month ago asking where Pikmin 4 was.
That's fine. He mentioned Pikmin, but didn't make a big deal of it. He had a problem with this early Direct not showing everything for this year like the Switch Presentation did in 2017.
OP

Where's Pikmin? Where's Luigi? Where's Animal Crossing? Where's Metroid Prime Trilogy?
I think this has been the hardest thing for me, especially the latter. I knew going into the Direct that not everything I wanted to hear about would be there. Zelda was exciting, certainly, but I was legitimately bummed (almost as much as at TGAs) for lack of seeing that darned Trilogy.
It was never implied that we'd see all of them at this last Direct, but still, with out barren April and May are for First-Party releases, I thought it was sure thing that something straight from Nintendo would fill those two months.

when the event is over. they're record the event, and when it's done, they'll cut a promo video
Same for me. It's just so weird that LM3 and AC are the two big reveals last direct, and then we wont see either of them after all until e3, 9 months later.
Trilogy, don't even need to talk about that anymore, everyone knows how I feel about them sitting on it. The lineup still should be great overall besides no trilogy, but still.
