I think NMH3 is a bit too big a game for an Indie Direct.

I rather expect some new announcements of more obscure (but not necessarily bad) indie titles.

Better than anything from EA or Activision for sure.

It's another Indie direct. What are your expectations? What would you like to see? Any sequels or ports in mind?

BOTW 2, Metroid Prime 4, new Smahs character reveal, new Mario game, Persona 5, Pikmin 4, new F-Zero

Indie means third party. Therefore expectations at rock bottom.

But Indies means the good 3rd-party. Not the (insert Jim Sterling voice) Trrriple AAAAAAAAAAAA industry.

Jeff Grub was right again apparently with this, along with like a half dozen other predictions earlier this year, and he's also predicting a general direct next week. HYPEEEEEEE

Don't take this as a negative guys, it makes Jeff's prediction of a general direct next week seem more accurate because yet another of his rumors became reality.

Word is that August will be eventful for Nintendo. Although I mean, it kinda has to be at this point. Basically this won't be the only Direct this month.

General direct is on the 28th.

Well, there's also the Slaughtering Grounds kind of Indies...

Thankfully, those are more rare and relatively easy to avoid imo.
