Nintendo announced a Direct for 11pm today (in the UK, thanks Nintendo...) and it will last 45 minutes (RIP sleep). They already said that Super Mario Odyssey was being shown and talked about so we know something. Since there are a few hours until the Direct, here are my thoughts on the announcement and what I wold like to see.
Thoughts
Personally I think this is the perfect time for Nintendo to have a Direct. Its not too close or too far from E3. Plus nothing of interest (that I know of) is coming out in September so we get our dose of Nintendo hype for a while.
Predictions
First off, we will more than likely get a better look and even a release date for game that are coming out this year like Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and Fire Emblem Warriors. Maybe even some demos for the games. I can also see us getting another look at the new Yoshi and Kirby games coming out in 2018 and maybe a release month if we're lucky.
Next is the Animal Crossing app. News has been both lacking and just plain weird, especially with all these leaked releases floating around. Hopefully we will get a real release date and maybe some footage and/or screenshots. I don't want to sound like a broken record and ask for Animal Crossing on the Switch like every other predictions post but it would be nice (wink wink, nudge nudge)
Lastly there's the virtual console for the Switch. The Switch has been out for a little over six months now which feels like the perfect time to announce it and even release some games (even if its just some popular NES games or something).
Thanks for reading and I will post my thoughts on the Direct on Sunday!
