Nice little breakdown

So basically we shouldn't expect much new for Wii U since they will want to save big reveals for E3.

Splatoon blowout (releases in May)

Yoshi's Woolly World trailer (rumored for June)

Mario Kart 8 DLC Pack 2

Smash Bros Mewtwo DLC

eShop/Virtual Console stuff

Perhaps something on Xenoblade Chronicles X or Devil's Third depending on when they end up releasing

What we should expect is some new 3DS announcements since we literally know of not a single Nintendo-published title for the second half of the year (Fire Emblem If is Summer in Japan but no word on the West).

One thing I would love to see is the smaller New 3DS to release alongside Xenoblade Chronicles 3D on the 10th.

Puzzles & Dragons Z+Super Mario Bros. Edition trailer

Fire Emblem If trailer and launch window

A couple localizations (possibly Final Fantasy Explorers, Youkai Watch, Bravely Second, etc.)

eShop/Virtual Console stuff

A couple new game announcements

Something like that seems realistic and would be a pretty decent Direct especially with E3 right around the corner.

Yes, exactly. Bolded are what I think are particularly likely compared to the rest.

I don't expect to see Xenoblade X. NOA will hold that for E3. Japan has no reason to show it since their third half-hour-long info video is imminent. Also, sorayasaga didn't retweet the direct announcement.

It's far too late now for NOA to announce any hardware coming with Xenoblade 3D, be it the small New 3DS or a limited edition Xenoblade N3DSXL.

Fire Emblem will get a trailer & date in Japan, but probably not in the West. Maybe we'll get a trailer but no date. We'll get the game at least a few months later, so everything will probably be on a delay.

Smaller New 3DS is mostly wishful thinking on my part, I want it sooooo bad lol

I didn't mean a date for Fire Emblem in the west, just a window, basically confirmation for 2015.

Overall, I'm not expecting anything too crazy for this Direct since E3 is 2 months away, just some updates on previously announced games, some eShop/VC stuff and a few minor surprises.


I didn't expect that you love New 3ds!:P

You will have to wait,it might release on holidays!I think that they didn't release it along with New 3dsxl on purpose,they hold it back for a second hardware sales huge boost in my opinion and a release on holidays is perfect for that!Of course,you disagree with me!lol
