We didn't get big or more new announcements, because they don't exist. Not because Nintendo was holding them back.
Unlike other Mini Directs, this one was a worldwide broadcast and was not game-specific Direct... just like your regular Nintendo Direct.

If we look at the 1st half schedule, you'll see that they keep their m.o. of one big title per month, at least.
And if you try to fill June's empty place with Hyrule Warriors, the first half is pretty much booked.


As i told you in another thread, this Mini Direct was different and you can't act like it wasn't.

So you basicly saying that Nintendo dont have big or more new announcements for 2018., and that they don't exist and that Nintendo dont holding them back!? :D    This was Mini Direct and thats a clear fact, not regular Direct.

We will see, I just saying that its almost certain that Nintendo didn't announced hole Switch 1H 2018. lineup, and that espacily goes for 3rd party games.

Even if maybe there are some differences, fact is that this was Mini Direct not regular Direct.  We will definitely have another regular Direct in around March, maybe even sooner.

No, i'm saying that they didn't announce big or more new games for the first half, because they might not exist.
And i use "might" instead of "they don't exist", because there's a chance for a surprise announcement.

"Almost certain"? Why do you say that when Nintendo has pretty much 1 "big" game per month from now 'til June?
If you place Mario Tennis in April and Hyrule Warriors in June, that's it: one big game per month.
Exactly why do you expect more announcements? Hasn't Nintendo live to their 1 big game per month mantra?

Could more 3rd parties come our way? Probably. Will it change anything? No.

It doesn't matter if this was a Mini Direct or if history says that a regular Direct comes a month after a Mini. That is irrelevant: Nintendo broke their tradition and handled this presentation pretty much like they handle their regular Directs: news/more footage of announced games and new announcements.
