Well, there's NoA's NES Tweet. At least we don't have to worry about this being the Tweet in the slot two hours from now.

 

[Dany1899]

The 16PM CET spot for a tweet by NoA is free now.

 

[Executive Taxi]

The Nintendo Direct was the friends we made along the way.

Nintendo delays the Direct every time someone says this line

 

[Bowser]

16PM tweet from NoA will be Fitness Boxing

It's gonna be "Get fit with Fitness Boxing out now for Nintendo Switch!" or something similar.

 

[Jim_Cacher]

Don't forget the NISA announcement on Thu.

 

[Hercule]

Wasn't there some wargroove tease as well?

 

[MondoMega]

Wasn't there some wargroove tease as well?

This one?

The news doesn't necessarily need to be in a Direct (they could reveal a release date anytime), but I guess it's possible. It might just happen at Pax South (like the post below said),

 

[SpottieO]

Wasn't there some wargroove tease as well?

They said release was coming soon and a released date announcement coming sooner. PAX South is this weekend though so that could happen there.

What the hell is this Ghetto Ass Xenoblade clone?

 

[Anono]

I´m pretty much accepting at this point that we aren´t getting a Direct this week... but I start thinking that the last one was looong ago.

 

[Kevin360]

I’m still hopeful.

 

[nocdaes]

I'm pretty confident its a title specific Direct that's coming, so given that means there isn't multiple games, developers, publishers and even teams involved in the content of the Direct, I'm not at all surprised there hasn't been any "leaks" or "insider" information. I'm hoping its Animal Crossing, and it certainly could be tomorrow.

 

[Dark Cloud]

I’ve already moved on to next week. I’m sorry not a single insider is teasing anything whatsoever. We can say the Metroid TGA’s are keeping people quiet, but at this point someone would say or hint at something.

 

[king zell]

Ok here is what i got guys, and Indie Showcase next week, the Direct is still "Soon" but i doubt its in January.

 

[Boownage]

I like that they're quiet. Still burned by that Metroid TGA fiasco.

 

[Dark Cloud]

Wow so there is an indies showcase. I kept speculating there was going to be one in here.

 

[Evergarden]

[MELLO]

lol

the dream is dead

 

[Boownage]

I don't get it, why would they do an Indie Showcase before an actual Direct. We don't know anything about Nintendo's line-up for this year, for their big games atleast.

 

[Anono]

:(

 

[Dark Cloud]

Nintendo must have big plans with Indies. Shinen gonna show up hopefully.

 

[Lilalaunebaer]

 

[nocdaes]

We've been Nintendo'd...

 

[Timppis]

Ok here is what i got guys, and Indie Showcase next week, the Direct is still "Soon" but i doubt its in January.

Well that just sucks.
Like big time. Although the Nindie showcase will have Wargroove and Steamworld.
But still

Goddamn.

 

[Dany1899]

Ok here is what i got guys, and Indie Showcase next week, the Direct is still "Soon" but i doubt its in January.

It will be clearly on the 31st January / 1st Feburary, during the night before my exam. It was obvious.
Thank you anyway for the information, we can rest until the end of the month.

 

[Dark Cloud]

So as I said on the last page.

I tried to look up when Nindies Presentation’s are announced in case that’s coming and last year they were announced 4-5 days early. The year before it looked like a few days or so. In the end it’s random as hell lol.

Last year the two were announced on Thursday and Friday (America time).

 

[Plum]

Era: "But Nintendo, you can't go into Q1 2019 with nothing past April dated and huge gaps in your release schedule!"

Nintendo: "Hold my beer."

 

[Bonejack]

An Nindies showcase makes sense regarding what the Wargroove dudes have been saying on Twitter.

No Direct in January is, imo, ballsy. And to be honest, it sucks having to wait yet another month for some potential Fire Emblem stuff ...

But oh well, can't change a thing assuming King Zells sources are correct.

 

[Boownage]

Nintendo clearly doesn't care about Q1 and Q2 at all.

 

[KtotheRoc]

Nintendo Era clearly in meltdown mode. Even if we aren't getting a Direct in January, it will be here before you know it.

 

[Champion]

 

[Dark Cloud]

February- nothing
March- nothing
April- nothing
May- nothing
June- Fire Emblem
July- Animal Crossing
August- nothing
September- nothing
October- Luigi’s Mansion 3
November- Pokemon
December- Retro’s game...joking it’s nothing

Spoiler

just a joke before someone cries people are melting down when no one is.

 

[olobolger]

Ok here is what i got guys, and Indie Showcase next week, the Direct is still "Soon" but i doubt its in January.

🙃

Thanks king zell, really appreciate it.

 

[Executive Taxi]

Oh my god WHAT. King zell’s source needs to realise that February is not ‘soon’ from early January! Quite honestly though I am glad that we have a clearer picture of a timeframe. Thank you king zell

 

[Timppis]

All Nintendo games are delayed into 2020 and after 2020 next games will be on Switch U 2023, with Mario Kart 8 DX DX and Funky Kong Amiibo Festival.

 

[Dark Cloud]

Oh my god WHAT. King zell’s source needs to realise that February is not ‘soon’ from early January! Quite honestly though I am glad that we have a clearer picture of a timeframe. Thank you king zell

Yeah that’s the only “problem” really is the definition of “soon”. I don’t see “soon” as a direct in February.

 

[Sonicfan1373]

The dream is dead

...until February

 

[nocdaes]

So, Fire Emblem in... May or June then?

February and April are both starting to look like dodgy months now... I don't doubt 2019 is going to be amazing, but it's getting increasingly likely that we're receiving a slow start!

 

[Plum]

The worst part about not having a Direct is that we just don't get that many third party announcements for the Switch that don't come from a Direct. I'd love to know more about this supposed "third party surge" that's going to happen this year but, right now, all we really know about is MK11, Crash Racing, DOOM Eternal and Dragon's Dogma when it comes to less obscure releases.

 

[FightingAloyTeam]

He didn't say February, he said soon.

 

[Dark Cloud]

I still think “soon” can be January 31st. King Zell seems to speculate it’s February on his part.

 

[Starfire22]

He didn't say February, he said soon.

He also said not this month probably.

 

[Anono]

I mean it was in certain way obvious given the amount of announcements via twitter we were receiving.

 

[FightingAloyTeam]

He also said not this month probably.

I'm thinking early March as I have said before.

 

[Bonejack]

Oh my god WHAT. King zell’s source needs to realise that February is not ‘soon’ from early January! Quite honestly though I am glad that we have a clearer picture of a timeframe. Thank you king zell

To be fair, today is January 16th, so February starts in 16 days. About two to three weeks might be ok for the term "soon".

 

[Dany1899]

I still think “soon” can be January 31st. King Zell seems to speculate it’s February on his part.

Yes, It will be clearly on January 31st / February 1st (in Europe)
