It feels weird to not be wishing for bombs to be dropped. In past years (except maybe 2017?) At this point I feel like we didn't know much. This time it almost feels like we know too much lol. But I guess we'll see in a few short weeks!

They always go through the same rumours :^3 twilight princess was the same way, and i believe Skyward Sword too ,they will never call A new Zelda Legend of Zelda we are stuck with new subtitles forever
100%. It'll either be exact release date or "Spring 2020" if delayed.
It will be one of the most packed E3 in years but honestly, those games do not excite me. I'll be skipping most of them.
Mario Maker 2... I'm not a creative guy and I'd rather play levels made by professionals rather than fans. Plus I've already played a 2D Mario this year. Skipping it.
Link's Awakening remake for $60 is really unfair. I've already finished the game 30+ something times (thanks to childhood transcontinental car rides). Maybe if price drops or Nintendo reveals some sweet extras for the game.
I'm on the fence for AC. Mortgage shit and limited space make me hate the game. If they remove Tortimer Island and the way to farm bells by catching Golden Beetles all year long I'm definitely skipping this.
Luigi's Mansion... I just hate this series.
But there are lots of other stuff to get excited about. Astral Chain, Pokémon, DQ11, Doom Eternal, whatever MS has, Square's new game, Retro... I don't need to beg you guys to sell my turnips to have fun with Switch this year.
Fire Emblem Three Houses will surely get quite a bit of screentime. It's releasing in July and has had relatively little marketing so far compared to Awakening/Fates. Still seen precious little battle gameplay, no full maps, only footage from the beginning of the game, etc.
The JP twitter has been doing bios and videos on each announced character, but the NA/EU ones have been comparatively lax, with no localized videos to match, just bios.
I'm asking because one of the scrapped logos for BotW shown in that artwork was literally "A New Legend of Zelda". Seems like it was a consideration at some point.
I'm really excited for Astral Chain and Pokemon gameplay among all of the possible games they'll show. Mario Maker I agree, is probably going to get the biggest chunk of gameplay of them all.
Jesus, if only...!
Now this is a bold pick.
Now that you mentioned it, seems like the logic choice. In past Treehouse conferences there's always been a particular game that's featured prominently. I think FE is going to be the one this year's.
Time flies, it's almost 3 weeks away
Edit: RE Length of the direct
We'll find out ahead of time how long it is and its going to be a 20 page debate thread between people who think its 30-40 minute of Animal Crossing vs. those who thing it will be more even after last year's direct/

<- Also a fool then.
Pretty sure I just saw a Retro hiring advert on Twitter for a contract tester as recently as 2 days ago. I'd think it'd be way too early for MP4 testing :)
Honestly, only if people have insane expectations. We go through this 3-4 times a year now with the direct buld up. People need to be realistic, but I do feel this year's E3 will be more special than last year's.;
Nah - but I just checked and it's still available from @jobsatnintendo on 25/05/19
edit: I'm posting from a work laptop, but checking twitter on my phone, otherwise I'd provide a link - sorry!
In-house tester is way different than the NOA Product Testing Dept testing which is near the end of the game's development. So yeah, it's for MP4.
How can we tell which one this is? It's a Product Testing position listed by NoA, but it specifies the location/studio.
I just played Bayonetta for the first time recently and after being charmed as hell I'm personally just excited to see more about Astral Chain. More specifically if the level/world design is going to be on linear side of things or have more open adventure elements in the mix. I can't seem to find a source and people seem conflicted on what it's going to be so it'll be nice to get some new information about it, especially since it's out in a few months.
all Retro jobs are posted on that account. it's pretty explicit who it's for (Retro in Austin, not NOA in Washington)
I expect a new retro game and another 2019 surprise or two but time will tell
No MUA3 hype? It's as much a Nintendo as. Team Ninja game according to the interviews
Pretty sure Retro did a hiring post on their own account very recently tho
It's really impressive how they managed to keep the game a secret until less than a year from release, and will have the first real gameplay showing around two~ months from release. I didn't love what I played from bayo 1/2, but this game has me super excited
they're the same job postings. all of Nintendo's jobs in America are posted on that twitter, there's no change
I don't see this Tweet on their page? http://www.twitter.com/jobsatnintendo
EDIT: nevermind I'm just blind
It appeared on the top 10 for a couple weeks, for what the game is I'm pretty sure it didnt bomb. Any game that appears in the top ten, will at most underperform but never bomb
Reggie's parting gift from Retro and the apparent shenanigans of hiding one of the characters definitely reinvigorated my belief.
I mean, what else could it be? Why not show the entire image if it didn't contain a secret? If it was for a cancelled game, why not hide the character entirely?
It's important to note that once the people who didn't know what they were doing stopped playing the demo impressions raised dramatically, if you want to see it in video from 'woolievs' streamed and then uploaded on youtube of him playing the game and besides being disappointed in the character customization was pretty hyped for the game. Should also note I also highly enjoyed it.
Nah. It's never too early. Plus if something leaks, you can adjustIs it too early to post E3 bingos? Anyway here's mine. Sorry for the shit quality, I still haven't figured out how to upload images with an iPad:
Let's see how many of them I guessed right.
I actually was pretty ho-hum on the demo until I went back and gave it more time. Once I tweaked the mech to give it more mobility I found the experience much more enjoyable. I still don't 100% know what I was doing, but I was having enough success to have fun. That final boss really sold me.
My point is that I dont think there is any loss at all, and that 3rd party exclusives are becoming less and less relevant.
On the other hand, first party is more relevant than ever, I think.
Anyway, if I misundertood your comments, my appologies.
You joke, but they managed to squeeze 26 minutes out of Smash last year so anything is possible with Nintendo.
I'm also wondering what third parties will do to fill up the rest of the year. The summer months are pretty stacked in terms of releases (with Nintendo stepping their game up as well from June) and what will release during the October/November period.
The Link's Awakening remake is a dream game (pun not intended), and I can't wait to see more of how Koholint Island looks in HD.
I like the fact that the game appears to be (largely, if not entirely) 1:1 with the original, since the OG map is one of the all-time greats. Densely designed, with tremendous variety packed into its economical use of space, and atmosphere to spare!
A potential Cadence of Hyrule shadow-drop could add an exclamation point on all of the E3 Zelda goodness.

huh, dark souls 2.... I didn't like it too much at the time but if it comes to switch I'll reconsider a new play. hopefully 3 comes as well.
Just wanted to give a bit of clarification on this:
I'm pretty sure the recruitment listings for the Takahashi RPG, the medieival fantasy project, and the Zelda project are all for the Tokyo studio specifically. In addition, the Tokyo studio assisted on Skyward Sword and Breath of the Wild.
The newer studios you're talking about at the end sound like the extra offices opened up in Tokyo recently. However, those do not seem to be new studios. They're being considered satellite offices for the Tokyo studio since the main office for the Tokyo studio ran out of space.
Looks like Techland has a game coming for Switch but it's not Dying Light 2. Fingers crossed for Call of Juarez: Gunslinger.
