      I really hope they do a proper remaster of MP2 and MP3. The rumor was that they would do a full remaster of MP1 (which is what we got), but MP2 and MP3 would just be “HD” releases instead of a full remaster. After the success of the first remaster, hopefully they go the full remaster route for the other 2 games.

    My expectations are so low for this.

    This I don’t expect to see (even though it’s time for all of them)

    • Metroid Prime 4 (we just got remaster)
    • Donkey Kong
    • Zelda DLC
    • 3D Mario

    EDIT: OH and hell no to new hardware. Way too early for that.

    This feels so weird to me. Pikmin 4 has been my silly “haha what if they finally announced/released it” game for a while now, and the fact that it’s almost actually out makes me wonder what game I should joke about existing next.

      Just wait a year or two. I’m certain Miyamoto will tell us development on Pikmin 5 is going well and the game is near completion by then. That should be some good meme material until at least 2030.

    So, this is why they weren’t announcing Persona 3 Reload for Switch. I am sure this will be announced tomorrow.

    Finally! So, what are you all hoping for this Nintendo Direct? Also, if you saw the leak, do you think they’re real?

      I think Pyoro’s leak is real! New 2D Mario, SNES remake, and Detective Pikachu maybe? I think the remake is either a Fire Emblem 4 remake, or a Super Mario RPG remake.

        I hope it’s Mario RPG. I love Fire Emblem, but Mario RPG is a classic and we didn’t have a Mario RPG-kind game for years

      What’s been leaked? I hope to see some Metroid Prime information. Maybe remasters of the two remaining ones in the Trilogy, or some preview/information on Metroid Prime 4.

        [• A new 2D Mario game, but not in the “New” serie • A remake from a SNES RPG, it will probably be Super Mario RPG according to leakers, but could be Fire Emblem 4 (I think it have little chance to happen) or Chrono Trigger (I think it have ZERO chance to happen) • Detective Pikachu 2, leakers report that Game Freak is not ready to show us the Scarlet and Violet DLCs, so they put Detective Pikachu 2 in a Nintendo Direct and not in a Pokémon Presents]<

      Is there a good alternative to r/gamingleaksandrumours on Lemmy? Haven’t been able to find one and it’s not as easy to follow new leaks on their Discord server

        I came across a gaming leaks community here. I usually stay away from rumours and leaks so didn’t check in details if it’s active or not.

        Let me see if I can find the link again.

        Edit: It’s a very small community with 3 posts, !gamingleaksandrumors@lemmy.ml, so not useful for right now, but in case it grows big, or anyone want to contribute.

      I feel they would want to save up a blockbuster 3D mario for a new generation hardware, like Odyssey was for the Switch.

    I really wish I wasn’t so pessimistic about this Direct, but as a fan of NSMB Wii, if that series really is being killed off then that would basically be vindication for all those people who treat NSMB fans with spite, and I don’t know if I could ever get over that

    The Nintendo Switch was officially announced about 5 months before it came out. This very well could be a “Switch 2” announcement.

      I wouldn’t bet on it, TotK just released, and I’m sure they’re planning a DLC. Unless it’s a Switch 2 that retro-compatibility, maybe?

        It was a surprise that Zelda game didn’t herald the death of a Nintendo console, as it was for the Gamecube, Wii, and Wii U.
