Nintendo Direct Speculation |OT5| Hello darkness my old friend...

Okay, maybe no Bravely Default, that could be a July game like Octopath Traveler but I could perfectly see something like this if the Direct, and therefore the announcements, happened in early March
March: Pokémon MDRTDX, Animal Crossing, eShop game shadowdrop
April: casual game, Pikmin 3 Deluxe
May: XenoblaDE
June: Super Paper Mario
Some nonsense about Nintendo delisting a couple February 14th Directs from their Youtube Direct playlist.
because we are in uncharted territory and anything goes and it was either a direct announcement or a stealth mini direct
It will! There was a time when Nintendo announced it 6 hours from now. I will wait.
Yesterday Nintendo deleted two previous directs that happened on February 14th and updated their youtube channel.
idk about you guys, but 12pm est seems like a good time for a mini direct to me.
Doug Bowser should be finishing up his breakfast by then, so it lines up perfectly.

Today is Friday, it'll be Saturday in Japan in less than an hour.
Nothing is happening until the likely AC Direct next week.
So there will be a Direct on Saturday here, Sunday in Japan? That makes sense to you? I mean, I can't tell you what to do with your life and I'm not gonna do it, so sorry for intruding, I guess.
He was being a bit aggressive towards someone, just banned for a day.
We believe he was sacrificing himself so that he could will a mini Direct into existence but alas.
the question was why people are expecting not how likely it is xD
So like I said, uncharted territory. Maybe this side of the atlantic we have friday night directs =O
Nintendo Direct Speculation |OT5| Hello darkness my old friend...
Could Nintendo be not wanting to push marketing hard right now due to the Coronavirus? Due to the supply drying up in Japan soon?

ah yup, I found it (edit: haha yep thanks yuoke)
bans are so awkward because we basically know who pulled the trigger
edit2: bans only come from reports except in sensitive topics, right?
it was justified and everything, no modwhining from me but it does feel weird
This was the only 7 am on-the-dot tweet this week, and it was to wish us a happy Valentine's Day.
It's a nice sentiment, but I had to chuckle.

If anything shadowdropped, it would have been 20 minutes ago.
If we get a AC direct next week... I would die. I could not take it. First Pokemon... then Smash.. and now AC??! Before a general direct?
I couldn't take it.
From a practical standpoint, the only disappointing thing to me about no Direct is that at this point we can assume that there's no Wii U port (Pikmin 3) coming in April. We'll get Xenoblade in May, presumably something Mario-related in June, and everything else will come later.
I hate the idea too, but we must assume that it's gonna happen
By the by, remember when we somehow caught wind of a media event from Nintendo some days/a week ago?
No surprises there.
No surprises there.
I sincerely hope that even if we don't know the reason now why Nintendo is so secretive and why insider sources have all but dried up, we might find out the reasons sometime in the future. All this speculation about the lack of Direct and no answers to explain it as of yet is rather curious
5pm est
They wouldn't shadow drop a new direct video at 11pm in Japan..
this is true. somehow I've gotten the sims 3 to crash on a machine with 32 gigabytes of ram
Oh is that so? That gives me hope. I will wait 8 hours more then.
Indeed that's the time the last Mini Direct shadow dropped (11 PM JST)
