forest-spirit said: 50 minutes? That's a long Direct, but with Monster Hunter, Pokémon Snap, Bravely Default II and the next Smash character on the horizon I feel like a decent chunk will be dedicated to any of or all of those. So despite being 50 minutes I'm gonna pretend it's a 15 minute Direct instead, to keep expectations in check. |
I don't really think so.
Bravely is a sort of niche product. The number of those interested in a classic style jrpg like that is limited. They'll promote it a little bit, but spending too much time seems like a waste. They're better off giving a little bit and then telling people who are interested to check out X rather than spending a ton of time in the general direct and causing a large part of the base to tune out.
Pokemon Snap would be something they'd want to promote, but the Pokemon Company tends to like doing their own things for Pokemon. So, they may not spend a ton of time, especially since Pokemon Anniversary day is so close.
Smash generally shows a trailer, and doesn't do a whole lot more in a general direct. Sakurai usually has an in depth presentation later.
So, Rise is the only thing they'll probably spend a large amount of time on. And I can see 20-30 minutes devoted to other stuff, some new, and some DLC for older games.
