same, it may not be what we wanted, but kelios was right about their being a direct, and right about the timing of the announcement. Still, this really fucking blows. I think we would have been less dissapointed if this was a shadowdrop. I think two factors are to blame, us as a community treating baseless, to-good -to-be -true rumors, as gospel, and nintendo not knowing how to read a room, while probably being increasingly uncertain about what, if anything, they are actually going to be able to release this year. Honestly....i wouldnt be surprised if more first party games this year was actually just entirely out of the cards this year, and they are relying on indies and third parties to make up that slack.
Sometimes some posts are true (e.g., the leaks about Switch Presentation in January 2017, or Let's go Games on 1st April 2018), but only after the real announcements it is possible to understand which posts are really true.
To not let Mario things overshadow the other games. This is what I think we will get:
- Nintendo Threehouse: Live (August 2020)
- Nintendo mini Partner Showcase (August 2020)
- Nintendo Direct (September 2020) + Threehouse live
I think many people just look at Ori, Cuphead, Banjo in Smash and the Halo on Switch rumor and think "If Nintendo fans get things from Microsoft then we Xbox users also deserve things back from Nintendo"
This is Switch's worst year.
I'm starting to doubt 3D Mario Collection and Metroid Prime Trilogy are real. I have no hope there will be more exciting third party games after this awful year. All I want now is Zelda BOTW 2, Metroid Prime 4, Bayonetta 3 and Hollow Knight Silksong.
I just hope Metroid Prime 4 won't be cancelled.

All future Directs will only show third party games. The next in the series is the Xbox event on the 23rd where the Mario Collection will be announced.
So what's the collective news in the last 8 hours? Definitely third party?
Third party games, and the second in this series won't appear until October

I remember people on this forum being 100% sure when that Miyamoto dumb rumor on Microsoft E3 that they were going to announce BOTW for Xbox.
Yeah I don't why I wrote Nintendo things instead of Nintendo fans but lol.
Maybe they will show it
is not because is a mini that they will not drop bombs
To be fair, this isn't what any of us were expecting based on what we know is coming out.
This is such an out of left field announcement.
All the more reason I tell people not to use Nintendo's past to predict their future.
Same. I'm done. Nintendo clearly does whatever the hell they want.
Doesnt mean the other stuff ain't coming. They just chose to reveal this first I guess. Nate says Mario collection is September so it will come soon.
Microsoft : "alright we want to put Halo and Banjo on Switch, but what do we have in return ?"
Nintendo : "how about The Wonderful 101 Remaster ?"
Microsoft : "wait, but..."
Nintendo : "it's not on Xbox as far as I know"
For as good of games as those years had, they also were padded with a lot of bad stuff. Especially 2014-onward. You get used to half-hearted 3rd party cash grabs on Nintendo systems but Nintendo's own games were the ultimate filler. Didn't feel good.
That's a great outlook to have, I think.
Nintendo is a video games company. They're going to continue to make and announce games. (And as we learned last night, on their own terms, and their own time.)
Yeah, but with MS to Switch there is precedent. The other way around is wishful thinking and probably a sprinkle of fanboying, too.
MS is the one that wants to spread out to as many platforms as possible here. Thus both already profit from the current relationship they've established.
Nintendo games on Xbox, though - that has no basis in fact whatsoever.
Thanks for the update. Seems we just have to wait a bit for the next direct
hey kelios do u know when the other stuff could come? Maybe in september? Or do u think earlier?
The only "big game" I can think of outside of BD2 that fits the description is NMH3.
Also that Rogue Company tweet seems to imply it'll feature in the direct.

What do you not understand lol.
Yea their timing is really odd and I would even say bad. They have trouble with their planning sometimes and I just see already this 10 min direct will probably get mass dislike. I won't, I dont mind but thank God we have leaks of other stuff for this year and next year cause otherwise... YIKES.
Say what, my friend? 👀
Edit: Nevermind, I get what you are saying. The Mario games are still coming.
I don't have a date for the moment, when I know something, I'll let you know
I would love an FZero SX releasing on both Switch and Xbox.
I personnally believe thta Microsoft is done releasing important titles on Switch; it wasn't a bootycall, but not much more than a fling. But I would very much welcome more collaborations between both, especially now that Microsoft has bought some interesting developers.

I really hope people don't get too aggressive and don't treat you unfair.
You're great and its amazing to have you here. Even if the Direct didn't happen at all, we really appreciate your honesty.
