I don't think we'll get BOTW2 info at the direct, but they might have a Zelda 35th Direct Announcement at the Direct tomorrow. BOTW2 is definitely an E3-level announcement.

As for Smash, I'm fairly sure this leak is real.

Puh-lease, Steve and sephiroth? That's absolutely absurd

Will Poke Floats be returning to SSB, after being missing since Melee? I wanna play on some balloons!

 

[derYASIN]

Informations about Rune Factory 5, please

I hope they go all out with the next mario kart and make "nintendo kart"

I would love to see them really put some new energy into the series (I want to play as captain falcon)

I hope they show something with Bayonetta 3. Seems that game has disappeared.

I'm sensing they will announce the imposter DLC character for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

They better open the floodgates for us with all the extra game dev time they've had during this bullshit pandemic.

I didnt mean it like that, but nintendo themselves has been very quiet about many things in 2020. The pandemic cant be used as the excuse all the time. We didnt even get any info or announcements at all. Other companies just atleast made announcements on new projects and things.

Reminds everyone that Persona 5 Strikers is out next week.

Still no P5 for Switch but we get P4 Golden port instead.

I'm still holding out for Rex/Pyrah/Mythra being in the game, alongside an announcement of Xenoblade X being ported to the Switch.

My dream announcement would Oracle of Seasons/Ages remakes, followed by Din/Faroe/Nayru in a Pokemon Trainer style character for Smash .

But yeah, I think we'll definitely see Monster Hunter, P5 Strikers, SMT Nocturne / SMT 5, a BOTW2 teaser/2022 Winter release date, info on a Pokemon remake, No More Heroes 3, and maybe some DLC for Age of Calamity, along with some indie titles and maybe a random localization or two. (Like an English variant of SMT: If for the Virtual Console).

I also think they'll be breaking apart the Mario 3D Allstars collection into 3 separate titles to purchase, and replacing it with some kind of Zelda compilation. I don't know what games, given that there's already Master Collection (and the 3D remakes on 3DS) and TP/WW have already been HD-ported to the Wii U. Maybe a bundle featuring all of the 2D Zelda games?

I don't think we'll see Metroid or Bayonetta 3

Mario/Nintendo Kart would be cool, I think we're due for one.

They are going to bring back the Wii in HD. Wii HD. Standard Wii games will not work on Wii HD you will have to rebuy them, but they'll be in 720p!

I think they're going to add karts in Smash where if you're losing you can get in a kart and peace out and blow off some steam on the track, then come back and finish the fight.

its gonna be called the wii H

I expect roughly around 35minutes of zelda announcements. BOTW2 stuff, Zelda35 in the same style as Mario35. What I'm hoping for most and do not expect at all is an oracle of seasons and ages remake. I just want more 2D Zeldas. I want a real sequel to A link to the Past with the same graphics/engine. And probably another metroid logo.

Well Uniracers isn't gonna happen for 2 reasons.

1. It's owned by Rockstar North (Formally DMA Design) and they haven't had the best of relationships with Nintendo as of late.

2. Uniracers was withdrawn from sale only a few weeks after it went on sale due to the fact DMA Design got sued by Pixar and lost for copyright infringement. That's why only 300000 copies of the game were ever sold.
