Oh, one more thing.

The announcement of Super Smash Bros. means that one IP of the essential four is present. The four IPs are SSB, 3D Zelda, 3D Mario and Metroid. If any of them is confirmed to be in the works, then all is well in Nintendo Land, regardless of what else is on the release schedule. If none of them is present, then all hell breaks loose, regardless of what else is on the release schedule.

The Metroid Prime 4 logo could only carry peace for so long. This Direct needed something substantial in regards to the essential four. The Smash teaser trailer fits that bill, even though it's only a teaser trailer.

So easy to appease the masses.
