I'm already buying Mario. So, just announce VC for Switch and i'm done.
And when i mean VC for Switch i mean GC, Saturn and Dreamcast games. Also, arcade games from the likes of Sega, are also deeply appreciated.

Thanks in advance, Nintendo!

Yours, truly,
Me.



Please show the new Kirby game for the 3DS <3
And i want fully details for US&UM :)

45 minutes?!



A lot of people are betting for Pikmin 4, but that feels like an announcement they would reserve for an E3 or something. I would absolutely adore it, though, it's been 4 years now without new main Pikmin content.



My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first. 

And they already recently did a Nindies direct.

Either this direct will have a lot of dry content ...

OR IT COULD BE THE DIRECT OF OUR DREAMS



I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016

As for my predictions:
Beginning:
Nintendo 3DS:
- Metroid: Samus Returns launch trailer + gameplay, amiibo functions, story details.
- Third party showcase for 3DS.
- Pokemon Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon trailer.

Nintendo Switch:
- Xenoblade Chronicles 2 trailer and brief discussion. Release Date: December 1st, 2017.
- Third Party showcase for Switch: Skyrim, NBA 2K18, L.A. Noire, FIFA 18, Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 (Dragon Ball Fighter Z reveal), Rocket League, Dragon Quest XI (Japan exclusive) etc.
- New trailer for Yoshi - Spring 2018.
- New trailer for Kirby - 2018.
- Fire Emblem Warriors final trailer - Season passes for other games: Shadows of Valentia (Alm and Celica). Sacred Stones (Erika and Ephraim). Path of Radiance/Radiant Dawn (Ike). Fire Emblem/Binding Blade (Roy, Lyn, and Hector).
- Fire Emblem for Switch teaser. - 2018
- Indie showcase
- New content for ARMS and Splatoon 2
- New color variant joy-cons (Both Red, Both Blue, Both Green, Both Pink, Purple, Orange, White, etc.)
- Launch date for Nintendo Switch Online, a.k.a., End of the Free Trial. (Spring 2018) Which will launch along with...
- Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo Switch - Complete Edition (Wii U version + 3DS exclusive modes and stages)
- And finally, Super Mario Odyssey Final Launch Trailer.



I just thought about it: What if they finally announce something with MyNintendo and the Switch? The service is pretty much useless once you get the free Zelda Picross game. Give us some use for our coins!



You know it deserves the GOTY.
