I'm not saying its not possible but it seems unlikely. All insiders have been wrong before and misinterpreted stuff, nothing wrong keeping an open mind when the stuff proposed seems a little strange. But obviously they could also be completely correct!
Hopefully we find out when our thirst for a direct is quenched asap
Maybe because they want to incentivize Wii U owners to buy Pikmin 3 again? Pikmin 4 won't come this year. We'll get Pikmin 3 Deluxe and Pikmin 4 next year.
For real. Emily isn't wrong or confusing anything. Pikmin 3 is coming. Pikmin 4 will come. Zell said it was coming too
I swear, if all GF focuses on is the pokedex and not everything else, they are truly blind

Not refuting, just adding, but I'd say they pretty much can't screw up a 1:1 gen 4 remake. People will love it no matter what
Of course, it's good to keep a an open mind in regards to information insiders give us. In regards to a Pikmin 3 port, i'm fairly convinced that it exists, but i'm absolutely certain that it is a separate entity from Pikmin 4 (remember, that's the argument I was responding to before).
So am I. I'm not questioning a Pikmin 3 port or it being seperate from Pikmin 4. I just don't expect Pikmin 3 to have substantial additional content added in to it (which is supposedly why its been delayed)

Not holding hopes in it coming. Emily didn't seem confident. I guess she did say if it comes it won't be until second half of 2020 the earliest. That tells me she knows Nintendo's first half 2020 lineup already.
Game Freak have shown us many different ways to mess up a game, even a remake, over the years:
- Mostly based on Diamond and Pearl; no major Platinum content included.
- That includes QoL changes, the Distortion World and any substantial Giratina appearance, post-game content, and ESPECIALLY the Battle Frontier.
- Even Game Freak can't be incompetent enough to skip out on Pokemon from the original Sinnoh Regional Dex, but i'd be willing to bet that a lot of Pokemon in the original 493 National Dex will be absent.
- Sticking to a grid-based map.

oh, yeah. I probably overestimated the Sinnoh goodwill. man I hope they deliver
Speaking of Pokemon, I wonder when Home will drop. Shadow-drop after the January Direct? Just shadow-dropped in general at some point in January or February? It's weird that they haven't touched on it (to my knowledge) at all after release.
That, Famicom Detective Club and Bravely Default II are hard to place dates for right now; at least in regards to stuff Nintendo are publishing.

With modern Game Freak the way they are, i wouldn't bet on that.
Until I looked it up just now, I didn't know that Nintendo was publishing Snack World in Australia, but seemingly nowhere else? Weird.
EDIT: Might be an error on the official Nintendo website actually (page here). They aren't publishing the digital version at least, and their logo isn't on the cover art.

Considering that they showed absolutely nothing, and couldn't even provide any specific details besides "the ending is different from the movie", I don't feel like the game was that far along when it was revealed.
I had to look it up. I thought it was announced last year. It was announced this May. Yeah it won't make 2020.
Calling it "perfected" when they're so clearly struggling seems a bit odd.
They first Detective Pikachu was announced super early, and all indications at this point are that sequel seems to be following the tradition.
If having that amount of sales every year and good critical reception, all while maintaining a good company environment and allowing employees to develop their own ideas is struggling then every game company wishes to be struggling.
There shouldn't be much stopping Spike Chunsoft from doing it, so I wouldn't be surprised to see it happen on the Switch (remember, it'd also be the first Mystery Dungeon with Gen 7 Pokemon too).
It'd be hilarious if they managed to include a complete dex like the last 3DS installment did; though since previous installments didn't have every Pokemon available as recruits, it'd be far more understandable here.
With Detective Pikachu 2 on the way, I can't see that one happening for awhile. Creatures don't seem big enough to work on two projects while also assisting Game Freak on the main series installments.
Can't thank you enough. I posted there. Let's see if anyone here can help.
and WWE 2k20 charted at #7 this year. that doesn't mean they can't fix things
Of course they can and will consider all SWSH's criticisms when developing the next generation, but Pokémon is nowhere close WWE's disaster lol
Sales and critic reviews aren't the only measure of a game's quality. The back half of the game is rather blatantly unfinished.
Also, Sword and Shield didn't even review that well by series standards.
I wonder if Capcom has more ports up their sleeves that shall make an appearance on this January direct... Dead rising?
I might be getting it. I really liked it on the Wii U. It gave me my Persona fix. I want to see how much content they've added.
Already on my Switch digital, got a physical copy preordered that I may cancel and own it 3 times on Wii U.
Picked up the original version for a bargain price earlier this year to fill out my first-party Wii U collection, but didn't play much of it. Might buy the port and play that version instead.
Though, Brain Training is technically the first Nintendo release of 2020 ;)
Couldn't finish it on Wii U, the whole idol thing is not for me. Also hated the songs.
Too bad there's nothing else in January, not even a small third party game or a big indie. I have zero backlog right now, I need some new games asap. Hopefully this upcoming Direct will have some cool shadow drops.
got an extra voucher, still undecided between this and Animal Crossing, never played an Animal Crossing game so I'm hesitant to commit to it.
I have no idea of when the next Direct will happen, but I really hope Nintendo shows a lot of new 1st party content in it, because if there's one thing we learned from the first 2.5 years of the Switch is that this companies, with a very few exception, treat the console as a third class hardware.
So, in order to keep the momentum with the arrival of the next gen consoles, Nintendo must keep the good work and release some crazy shit in 2020.

Just ordered mine for 289,00 reais... Something around 72,00 dollars.
I bet Dead Rising 1-2 on their Switch schedule for next year, possibly releasing in fall. First we need to have DMC4 and DmC.
I still believe they will release a Switch Monster Hunter game next year.
I'm hoping it's like the February direct where we got 3 new Nintendo first party games in Super Mario Maker 2, Astral Chain and Links Awakening. We even got first party digital games like Tetris 99 and Boxboy.
It's certainly possible; based on precedence it could even be revealed in the January Direct and release in May or something. Though, HAL did put out a ton of job recruitment listings for a "New Kirby Series Project" in September, so it might be further out than we think.
thankfully Pokemon games get more dev time than the 2K sports games, but in a way, I can see WWE being an unfortunate conclusion to some of the issues plaguing Pokemon, namely not enough time and aging development foundation.
That would be awesome.
3 new games announced: a new Baiten Kaitos, Pikmin 4 and Mario Odyssey 2.
Bayonetta 3 and BotW2 confirmed as 2020 games.
Plus 3 remakes: MP Trilogy HD, Pikmin 3 and FZero GX
Merry Chirstmas.
