"Big" Nintendo announcement happening Monday

[boomario]

I really think it's about the future of mobile for Nintendo and maybe something or other about console/handheld games considering the new Nintendo Network recently.

Going to look at the other comments,but can't believe so many people believe it is the NX and right before Christmas too. I could be wrong that they are actually going to be talking about it and they change their mind, but I doubt it. Even if it is the NX, you are not going get anymore than announcement of an announcement.

Well, I guess it could be just "Nintendo will announce NX in January 1st", at least that's what I think Heartgold was trying to say.
Announce an announcement just sound bad, It looks redundant.

I wasn't very serious with my post. Hope that helps.

I'm expecting nothing. I think they will do an event or a Ndirect for a proper NX reveal around spring. There could be surprises, you never know.

Smash bros and the NX.

 

[Dotmore]

Pokemon Z

probably talk about holiday special deals, some new game localization perhaps just in time for the holiday (STYLE SAVVY 3 PLEASE!!T___T), small talk about the Nintendo account coming March 2016 but I believe nothing too big and off-railing that will jeopardize the holiday and rest of the quarters till the distant NX release..

Pokemon Z

Doing the scroll through quickly to say I read the thread thing I read that as Pokemon 2. In that case I would have said there are some far out and wild theories in this thread but an actual pokemon sequel would be further out than any of those.

My money would be on them announcing the Club Nintendo replacement... but I could easily see it being an Amiibo related announcement.
I'd like it to be a price drop for the Wii U *crosses fingers*

In my opinion, it's unlikely that it would be NX related, and even less likely it's Smash related, and just completely far fetched that it would be FF related (given the timing with all the PS FF news of the weekend).

• full details of the new account system
• details about their mobile projects
  
• NX
• ZeldaU
• Metroid

Can't think of something else that would deserve being called great.

I don't think it will be NX but I wouldn't discard the possibility.
Developers are already working with NX hardware.
Nintendo clearly knows WiiU is a failure(considering number of sales)
Releasing a console now would make WiiU just history and they would have something brand new to sell,
they would have the possibility to have the strongest console of the three big companies.
and correct all the mistakes WiiU had.

I see people saying that announcing it right before christmas is risky,
but if they announced it to be released right before christmas would be a fantastic market strategy.

It could also be that they announced what NX will be and release it somewhere around E3,
then they could already sell NX with plenty of games also been announced for it.

 

[KingVamp]

Realistically or at least as close as possible. Mobile Games including Pokemon. Holiday deals. SSB. Pokemon Z. Another game tournament.
The account system and Nintendo Club replacement. Maybe Minecraft.

I didn't think it could be anything else bigger than this. Not for some random announcement.

 

[Hells Malice]

Pokemon Z.

What does the pokedex say about pikachu's power level?!

And I thought you were joking.

 

[kassemmel]

Nintendo technically owns the rights to a 'love motel' and two pornographic Mario movies. They discovered the movies and bought the rights to make sure nobody ever watched them.

Having said that, maybe they're going down a more fetish route this time. They already have Lucario sniffing his own farts in Smash Bros.

I dare say they have already, however they probably just pulled a Disney and gave it to someone else at the last moment (they also own touchstone pictures http://www.imdb.com/company/co0049348/ and used to own miramax). I have not got any examples but I am sure you could find something they significantly financed in some way, perhaps published and still retain some measure of the rights to and that would ultimately gain whatever the local equivalent of an 18 rating is.
