PT is still the only Operation Rainfall game I haven't played. I know it's on the on the Wii U eShop. Whenever they announced the Wii U eShop is going down, I'll probably panic buy it.

Pretty good in my opinion, if a bit unpolished. One of those games we don't see too often from Nintendo (tbh, given some of the content we don't see it from most developers). Hope you enjoy it if you ever get around to it.

Ah, gotcha. I only saw that first post in... what was it, OT24? Whatever it was lol.

At least I can sleep easy now.

Either way, it was before it was announced as Metroid Dread. I didn't think there was the slightest chance the name would actually be Metroid Dread so the name became a bit more apt than I thought at first.

I actually opened the doc for the Alan Wake rating and it says "Cartridge" + "Download" in the request
So I presume that the Cloud Version isn't a thing for this case

Oh wow, that's pretty much a giveaway then. Seems like they might actually just announce the Switch version on their own in a Direct like with Life is Strange, or it might also just be a late port. Very cool to see though!

In depressing news, here's something from the Castlevania Advance Collection thread
Ehh.... I saw Play-Asia had put this one up for preorder.

In the description it says...
Castlevania Advance Collection includes:

- 3D Classsic
- Castlevania Anniversary Collection
- Contra Anniversary Collection


That's gotta be wrong?... Please, please be wrong..
Highly likely it's a placeholder, but I'm still so nervous. Konami I swear…

Since Wednesday is apparently a holiday in Japan, If an announcement for Thursday doesn't happen for Tuesday would we rule out a direct this week?

A small correction: the Holiday falls on a Thursday.
However, we can rule out a Direct airing on Wednesday, or rather a general Direct airing on Wednesday, because the airing time would be 07:00 am of Thursday in Japan

Is that the codename for One Piece Odyssey?

Then it really doesn't sound like we're getting a direct this week since we can rule out Wednesday and Thursday?

Yeah we have way too much smoke at this point for there not to be a direct. I feel like we've gotten like 8 minutes of direct content from ratings reveals, I'm firmly set on it happening this week

I'm betting on Thursday. It would be Friday in Japan and the announcement the day before. I think someone pointed out a situation earlier when a Direct was announced on a japanese holiday.

What if it was Wednesday night in Japan?

I'm sure we've had Direct at 2pm/3pm in the UK(which would be 10pm/11pm in Japan)

Well, I was specifically talking about general Directs. Obviously the situation would change if it were a Direct Mini.

EDIT: And to be frank, I definitely don't exclude the possibility of a Direct Mini taking place rather than a general one.

I think it's pretty much a lock for this week, the only thing that would cement it more is some insider confirmation, but I don't think its necessary(and insider deconfirmation would obviously uncement it)
