I think you'll get quite a few of them. From the top of my mind I can think of BD2, NMH3, Deadly Premonition 2, Silksong, Rune Factory 5...

Sega calls Sonic a Sega of America franchise, which isn't too surprising since a lot of writing is done in english first. so I'm assuming it's a Street Fighter situation
why not put the best 3D Mario game on the pedestal it deserves (higher than 64)
Tour has a lot of things that need to be carried over the next console Mario Kart; ignoring basic stuff like characters, kart parts and courses:
- The Points/Combo system.
- Special Items returning from Double Dash.
- Missions returning from Mario Kart DS.
- Challenges and Badges being incorporated; taken from ARMS.
- More alternate costumes for each character (while Tour counts them as individual characters, I don't think they would do that in this case).
- Reverse and Trick Courses.
Gentle reminder / shilling that No More Heroes III is happening. It's entirely made with the Switch in mind and will use the joycon heavily both on and out of combat. Suda51 making the wiimote act as a cellphone was one of its most creative uses so we can trust him to implement it well, and with the latest trailer having an N64 and the Zelda shirts / spin attack in TSA, I'm sure we'll get plenty of Nintendo references too.
I wouldn't say it's locked. Nintendo seems to treat it as Mario Kart 9
What I mean by that is, I want them to become regular features of the series, and currently most of those things can only be found in Tour.
I think they will be, hence why I said Nintendo is treating this game like numbered title. it's probably a hint for the next console MK
What happened to that Online play invitation function which was added in recent Switch OS update? I mean it's good that finally it's here but games are not updated so something like Mario Kart will never work with it. Pointless.
If Super Mario Party 2 is announced, will we finally have real Mario Party online with friends? It's time. The half ass attempt they Did with SMP nobody cared about
Let's be real; Super Mario Party 2 probably still won't have online board play.
But Mario Party 2 on NSO? THAT'S what we need to hope for, lol.
Mario Kart 8 is such a fucking great game, but I really, really want to see more single player content in these kart racers.
It's a tired argument, but this is why Diddy Kong Racing is still my gold standard. Not because the core gameplay is necessarily the most balanced, but the three vehicles swapping between races, explorable HUB, discoverable secrets, boss races, etc, alongside a couple of unlockable characters, made for a super engaging and exciting single player experience. Mario Kart DS is the closest from Nintendo to hit that mark, just because if its regular rotation of challenges.
This is actually what excited me most about that dumb Star Fox Grand Prix rumour; the notion it had a Diddy Kong Racing-like single player component.

Nah, if they're doing Odyssey 2 like we assume, a 3D World port isn't interfering with that. Completely different types of games
I'd rather have a balls to the wall action Kirby game by Platinum Games.
Platinum action game starring Peach Daisy and Rosalina pls

Who do I have to contact in order for them to start a bogus rumor of all three of the Tomb Raider reboot games coming to the Switch in one package?
just make a twitter account and put đź‘€ after everything you say
the DK racing stages that allowed more than one type of vehicle were the worst ones.
At least the ones that allowed one ground based vehicle and the airplane.
It's one of those "better on paper" type features.
accommodating airplane and car in the same stage led to garbage level designs.
The HUB world was the most interesting thing definitely.
this thread is definitely less fun than the XSX/PS5 thread. it's reminding me of WUST over there

I'm feeling like when MK9 comes it should bring some big changes with it. The series has been stuck to a pretty regular formula of 32 tracks, battle mode, and online, and not much else.
I'm hoping we see some ideas that change up the core gameplay come along like with Tour. The combo gameplay, and R & T tracks are all great fun. Also a single player campaign would add great value to the package, along with regular online events like other Nintendo titles have.

Yeah I think that the situation will improve especially from Japanese devs. I even think Switch will get its own Monster Hunter and we heard of The World Ends With You rumors. That's why I'm more excited about 2020 because I think we will see more exclusives but I don't want the Switch library to be only rpg focused.. More games like Zombi and Red Steel are welcome and also a good game of ping pong please.
My prediction is General Direct in Feb, and I think we might get some kind of Direct or Presentation next month. (like Smash Presentation ;P)

I'd love a change up, but the formula works so I doubt they'd change it substantially. I hope they add in more past modes, I sunk so many hours into the DS challenges and the battle mode in 8Deluxe was glorious. I could see them doing more than two dlc packs or big version updates with extra modes like Smash Ultimate.
I can't believe I'm saying this (as a hardcore metroidvania lover) but I don't think Team Cherry would be the best fit, maybe a more rpg focused dev really double down on what makes Zelda 2 so different from the rest of the games.
Untitled Waluigi Game by House House
A perfect fit for the character, really.
Just wanted to say hi, been lurking for over a year, huge Switch fan, best system ever (imo), bring on 2020, thanks to insiders like Zell, Emily, Nate etc. in particular loved that list where we had to fill in the blanks... great work from Emily there.
Anyhow hoping to hear more about Monolith's new IP at the next Direct... we'll see.

Welcome to the madness that is Nintendo discussion on ResetEra. Let's just hope that the wait for a Direct isn't that long, or else you'll have to experience everyone here going insane like last January.
A Direct is always exciting of course. But fans shouldn't be feeling too anxious about the next one IMO. For one thing there's so many games to keep themselves busy with over the holidays. I only just started Luigi's Mansion 3.
But from what's been said over the past few pages, a January direct seems more likely than February.
Btw, hope you're not too affected by the bushfires in Sydney.
Thanks; i'm thankful that the conditions in my local area have begun to improve (i'm asthmatic, so the really bad air pollution was terrible to live through), but there are still a lot of people out there suffering through this.
I'd like to suggest a second poll that asks how long in January it will take for Era to melt down if the Direct is indeed in February.

Welcome! I lurked NeoGAF from the ages of 13 to 17 (when Era started), so to me you're welcome company
oh boy oh boy oh boy
noooooooooooooooo
Not the same age range, but I also lurked GAF for years. Finally joined Era because the January 2018 Direct hype was too strong.
Hey, at least Nintendo cares enough about Eternal Darkness to continue renewing their trademark for it.
Custom Robo and Doshin aren't as lucky.
pandemonium strawpoll
OP

Now, should I go for the optimistic answer of 17 (no Direct happens by this point and people start to go mad), or the realistic answer of 1... hmm...
New Year's Eve announcement for a New Year's Day Direct will be the first meltdown, then every Monday to Thursday will be chaos until there's a Direct.
