I picked September 18th-24th, but definitely feel like we could have an event as soon as September 15th.

I think we could see a quick teaser trailer for the new Mario movie, although I also very much feel that would be a Twitter drop. The only reason I'm putting it here is that they've been using Directs to keep us up to date with the status of that film, which I thought was odd.

I'm hoping for a December release of Metroid Prime anything, whether it's the Remastered Trilogy or the Metroid Prime Remake, with a quick teaser trailer of MP$ after this announcement. I wouldn't be surprised if this was the show closing announcement.

I think we'll get a little snippet on BOTW 2. My guess is that we'll get a bit more info on the setup with clips we've already seen being linked up together so we truly understand what happens to Zelda and Link. Then we'll get another sizzle reel of gameplay featuring new enemies, new abilities, hopefully some underground scenes, and maybe even some swimming scenes. Of course if we get all that, then this would almost definitely be the show closer.

What I'm really hoping they don't do is spend too much time on titles just around the corner. Bayonetta 3 and Sparks of Hope are right around the corner and I just feel like it would slow the show down to spend a lot of time on these titles.

I think a shadow drop of Silksong would be amazing. Also, can we just get Advance Wars released already. I don't know how much hype that game is going to have anyway, but these delays for the title at this point seem odd.

I think a RingFit Adventure DLC pack would be cool and a great opportunity to capitalize on the success of the title and give it another set of legs as we head into the holidays with folks trying to get on a good health path. I wouldn't put it past them to actually have a full on sequel either.

As with all Directs I think many of us over the next few weeks will load the predictions with every title imaginable which will undoubtedly mean that what does get shown won't quite live up to expectations, but at this point I'm just going to be happy if there is a Direct at all.
