Nintendo Direct Thread (Do NOT post here unless one is announced)

[Koopa con Carne]

The Twitter embed doesn't load for me; what's the announcement?

A Nintendo Direct focused on Super Mario Bros. Wonder. Airs 31 August at 7.00 a.m. PT / 10 a.m. ET and is "roughly 15 minutes"

Here is the generic Nintendo Direct that has been announced.

For those who don't see it, it is Sep 14, 2023 at 10:00 AM and will run for roughly 40 minutes for Nintendo Switch games for winter.

well I guess my poll just got a lot easier to vote on
... console announcement?

 

[Pinky]

Another one super early in the morning, guess I gotta prepare to stream tomorrow

 

[Tairitsu]

I hope Mario appears.

It's probably safe to say that we'll get some information on Wave 6 of the Booster Course Pass. As for the courses that I'm predicting...

Acorn Cup

• Tour Rome Avanti
• 3DS Wario Shipyard
• GBA Bowser Castle 4
• Piranha Plant Pipeline

Spiny Cup

• Tour Madrid Drive
• GCN Dino Dino Jungle
• Piranha Plant Cove
• Wii Rainbow Road

And while there may be two empty character slots left, we could be in for a surprise by getting an extra character, and the DLC characters get placed below the guest characters (Inklings, Link, Villagers, and Isabelle).

those primate-hatin' folks at Nintendo better at least put Diddy in 8 Deluxe. just a morsel of acknowledgement to DK fans. i'm not even holding out hope for Funky anymore, and unfortunately i don't think they'd go through the effort of designing a bike suit for Pauline if she were considered for the game.

Once again hoping for Dr. Mario or even Puyo Puyo to show up in the Direct, even though we haven't seen either in recent times.

Thank you for reading.

NINTENDO SWITCH 2? Probably not. But I'm still holding out hope.

 

[MegaBowser64]

wow it's literally just a remake of the original Mario vs DK. exceptionally disappointing. Somehow the Peach Showtime looks somewhat good

 

[Angry Shang]

Hmmm this wasn’t an amazing direct but ended up being better than I expected it would be in the first 10 minutes (having about nothing to offer). I am interested somewhat in Princess Peach: Showtime, and always wanted Thousand Year Door to get a remake. That the Tomb Raider games are coming to Switch excited me too. But not much that piqued my interest aside from that at all, really. (EDIT: It really annoys me that Dark Moon HD has nothing new to offer.)

 

[Tairitsu]

good direct funky kong is real

 

[Revin]

truly generous of nintendo to allow f-zero fans to not only have a new game after 20 years, but it's a free download as long as you have a nso subscription, so it doesnt cost them anything
very kind of them

 

[MegaBowser64]

we did it Nintendo hasn't given up on DK just yet
Was I watching Nintendo of Europe or did they change the name to Luigi's Mansion 2 HD in America too seems weird
The fact that they have a lineup going all the way to summer 2024 kind of rules out a new console releasing in the first half of the year and at this point I have no clue if Nintendo is even going to announce before next fall.
Mario vs DK was a bit disappointing but as long as they haven't given up on an actual DK game I'm fine with it

 

[Shmaluigi]

i'm not even holding out hope for Funky anymore, and unfortunately i don't think they'd go through the effort of designing a bike suit for Pauline if she were considered for the game.

how do you feel now

 

[Koopa con Carne]

happy beyond words!

 

[Calamity Coyote]

They changed it probably to make it synonymous with Luigi’s Mansion 3.

 

[MnSG]

Diddy and Funky are finally accounted for. However, Wii Daisy Circuit's presence does lead to doubts of Wii Rainbow Road showing up.

 

[Swallow]

The Peach game looks alright, but not fully sure if I will buy it. Will more likely consider the Thousand Year Door remake. Would have liked to see Yohane: Blaze in the Deep Blue come up in the direct

 

[Ray Trace]

mario vs dk is the game im actually the most excited for i love the 2 player toad coop
