Guys, smash wont be 15 minutes long.

It"s going to be 5 minutes tops, at the worst possible scenario. The details will be left for a sakurai presents or something like that.

I'd prefer 5 minutes of smash and 20 minutes of a Sakurai-Presents, but this might be both in the same presentation. 

If the Sakurai presents happen, it"s gonna be right after the direct, I'm absolutely sure of it.

I'm feeling an original DK trilogy remake incoming.

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 guess there's room for a "big" reveal (or else I'm gonna be pissed) but I have no idea what it could be. BOTW 2 and Metroid Prime 4 (assuming they are even close to having something to show) are more likely to be part of the E3 Direct. I'm not expecting Bayonetta 3 to be there either. Maybe Silksong is big enough?

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.

You're probably right. I just don't want my hype level to go crazy, that's all.

It's almost time guys. It will really depend on the pace of the direct if I'll be able to post here while it happens, like having some time dedicated something to FIFA would do it for me. But otherwise, I wont post here until we are done.

So to be safe: See you guys on the other side!
