There is zero chance that April sees a first party Nintendo game at this point imo and May is starting to look suspect also.

I own 5 copies of Shovel Knight, PC, 3DS, Wii U and Switch. For the Wii U, I even own two copies because I accidentally forgot I owned it already and ordered it again
Despite that, I didn't actually play the game until I got it on Switch a few months ago lol
im not believing anyone who says relax its still happening today. Yes this is a first world problem, obviously there are bigger issues, but in a world of shit some good news would be nice. And why should we believe insiders at this point?
but then why would they attach someones name to the rumor? Lol nobody would ever agree to that.
Pretty much the reason I'm here, actually I really feel like I'm doing a character when posting in this thread and I think it's the same for everyone 😄
Bummer if nothing's announced today!
Not gonna get beat up about it, I'm legally housebound for 3 weeks so I might as well get stupidly anticipatory for the next few Wednesdays. If nothing happens it's not like I'll have much else going on anyway.

Happy birthday!
Getting drunk should've been a part of it regardless.
cheap multiplat games that are always rereleased like sonic 1 and 2 are diffrent
No they aren't. They claimed they were cause they still were trying to save the Olympics but now that they are called off there's already calls for self-isolation, and a lockdown is probably coming in the next days.
PEOPLE STILL believing NateDrake/Zippo... My goodness. Did you guys learn nothing with the Verendus fiasco?
Is Zippo still a part of the insider thing? I dont know how that developed after after Feb.
Y'all, I want a Direct as much as the next guy...
But people in this thread need to calm down. Some of this discussion ranges from cringe as hell to rude.
We will know more eventually. As for now, there has to be a better use of our time than being angry over something we were never promised.

This waiting for a direct is nothing after waiting seven years for New Horizons
Sure, but..we've been expecting news since January. And justifiably, given their silence and blank slate for the rest of the year.
They're not doomed, but it still sucks. Especially when 2018 and 2019 weren't amazing years from them either imo.
Their output frequency is super disappointing.
I will be reporting you for spreading misinformation and flame-bating. I hope everyone does the same and that you go discuss your pseudoscience with your flat-earth pals.
I think so, at least since the Wii days. Maybe it happened during the end of the GC era, but I doubt it. Wasn't there a spreadsheet floating around here with the timeline from announcement to release of every single first-party game?
No, people believed Venture Beat. Nate and Zippo didn't even explicitly say there would be a Direct tomorrow.
See, I get called a pessimist because I state a Direct isnt going to happen in the current climate and yet I actually have high optimism for a first party game releasing in April still.
The whole 6-8 week lead time is a Physical product timeline. Digital only, well to be frank they could release it anytime they like - potentially with no lead time at all.
I still feel Pikmin 3 in April is a real possibility.
What an absolute fucking joke this is. Unbelievable. I've been a Nintendo fan since I was a kid. I'm 32 now. I bought the Wii at launch. The Wii U at launch. And now the Switch at launch. I've supported both their home console and hardware business. I'm as true as a fan can be. I've supported them through thick and thin, stuck by them through the worst of storms. And this is how they repay me? This is how they treat their fans? Every day I wake up hoping for a new Direct. I check for updates all through work, while I eat dinner, and right before I go to bed. I tell people at work about the Nintendo Directs and how great they are. How they're like Christmas, or even better. Every Direct I buy myself a celebration pack, full of muchable goodies to enjoy while I watch. I treat myself because I consider Directs a special experience, an event to be celebrated because Nintendo care about their fans. Or so I thought. It's been MONTHS since the last Direct. There hasn't been a full Direct this year AT ALL and it's almost April. There wasn't one at the end of last year either. As far as Nintendo is treating fans they might as well not even have games. That their fans are just garbage to be cast aside and they'll just wait and wait and wait for a Direct that wont come. Well not me. Guess what? If Nintendo thinks they can have no Direct and no Games, I guess I will have no Switch. Goodbye, Nintendo...
2019 was super solid. 2018 has been the only bad year for the Switch.
Yeah. Probably an Eshop game and then Xenoblade in late May at the earliest.
I'd be happy with a NES game on the NSO app at this point.
not multiple games, just one new; something
