Tears of the Kingdom was first announced in 2019, 2 years after BOTW, and released in 2023.

It's 2026, 3 years post-TOTK. Maybe new announcement...but I kinda doubt it. Games take forever now. But, I can hope I guess.

OOT Remaster
Xenoblade something
F-Zero


I have seen light rumors of Mario in development, that would be nuts. I mean, we have to be getting near a new Smash too.

This feels like one that will have a big Splatoon Raiders explanation, then have "one final trailer," my bet is OOT.

Yeah, time is right for it.

But holy smokes, I did not realize it was 2017 release. #mindblown

10 years between 3D Mario games is absolutely inexcusable.

64 - 1996
Sunshine - 2002
Galaxy - 2007
Galaxy 2 - 2010
3D World - 2013
Odyssey - 2017

They were putting out mainline, home console 3D Mario games every 4-5 years and now we're at 9 with not even an announcement.

That Direct was almost complete donkey shite minus the OOT remake being officially announced and even then, not 5 seconds of gameplay??

Of course I just started my first replay of OoT in over a decade. Im at the point where I’m going into the Temple of Time to pull the sword for the first time but I’m trying to get all the skull skulltulas and heart pieces I can before I do.

Also them saying the OoT remake will be out in 2026 without showing any gameplay is optimistic as hell since we are 6 months in already. I bet it comes out next Spring ultimately

Nintendo can't help but be Nintendo.

Link looked like someone ran him through one of those AI realism generators.

If it looks good and plays well, I’m ok with it. Nintendo is one of a few companies that could shite in a box and I will buy it.

So I only caught a few seconds here and there. Sounded like it was mostly ports of switch games to switch 2? What was actually announced?

I saw a couple of new games... Sports Resort 2 and Xenoblade 4. And then confirmation of OoT remake for this year. Anything else?

Eh? They bring in some major third party hitters, announce OOT and Xenoblade, KH4, a new Final Fantasy.

Probably one of the best directs they've had.

Solid parity withy other consoles, some recent third party big hitters, and 3 solid new games?
