Most of the playerbase is in Europe it was probably 1AM for them. Also this topic doesn't constantly need messages coming into it that's why it's 'Space for Anything' so you can say ALMOST and start a random thread. There isn't always something that needs discussing.

It could be like the Zelda console edition where the actual game was AI upscaled to make it not grounds to get slimed out but realistically the next 3D Mario is a year away from reveal. Nintendo wouldn't release it next to a Pokemon game in November.

Direct Highlights in 1 post:
Yokai Watch - ALIVE
Prof. Layton - ALIVE
MKWorld DLC - not ready yet, have the SNES tracks for free in the meantime
'Bananza isn't the 3D Mario' believers - in shambles
Mythra Kid - REAL
Switch Sports Resort - This actually looks really good to me
Pikmin 4 S2E - the long names are a Miyamoto exclusive
RE 2-4 Remakes - Sure
Metroid Ravenous - REAL
New 3D Kirby - HAL magic baby!
P4R and P6 - confirmed!
Smash 6 - the man just finished Air Riders like at most 2 years ago unless you want it to be complete trash it's not coming

Ocarina of Time confirmed the only holiday title, and with WiWa next year going to be November as always with Pokemon - 3D Mario could even be 2028.

Okay. By 'RR' I meant Retro Rewind but thanks anyway cuz I still dunno how to Reverse Drift

Just started trying out RR (Retro Rewind) does anybody else play on keyboard and if so what is ur button layout?

What does this mean?

I mean I wish I was a girl but also I don't think I've ever interacted with them I dunno how I qualified for a 'squad' I just use girl character pfps

This company is so funny man

It's a random Wednesday morning in Japan less than a week before their next direct and they updated Pikmin 3 DX, gave Smash a balance patch and:

-added 5-8 player to 8DX
-raised player speed across the board invalidating every WR
-changed the Boo to work like it does in DS and World


Say what you will about not looking too mcuh more visually impressive gprahics wise but their commitment to using the Switch 2's hardware to add insane modes and features in 8DX, Bananza and Raiders bodes really well for future games like Luigi's Mansion 4 or the next 3D Kirby.

Yh the lady at the checkout till said he's a regular
Don't fix what isn't broken I guess

Been staying in the UK for vacation for two days and just saw a man steal two plants from a Lidls

Fair enough. They did say they were gonna focus on the rest of the year, which is almost filled out now. September direct should be exciting.

That was a good direct IMO. Surprised that Xenoblade 4 didn't leak like Switch Sports 2 and OoTRm I'm surprised that we still had so many people who thought stuff was coming (I guess people hate leaks so that's fair) that we knew weren't

3D Mario - Hopefully people are convinced that Bananza was the 3D Mario now, atleast for another year.

World DLC - Delayed until next year. I can't blame ppl who don't follow leaks for not knowing this one tho.

Smash 6 - Air Riders was in November, Smash has either only just started or won't have Sakurai on it (extremely unlikely).

New 3D Zelda - TotK was 3 years ago and they would've teased it if it was coming out next year.


If anything I'm surprised that there was no Kirby. It's been 5 years not counting Star Crossed World or KRTDLDX.

The guy who said that a Super Metroid remake is coming is a sick man tho (unless that's for September).

Streets are saying the Galaxy movie is reference slop. Will anyone be able to confirm this tomorrow/today?

Direct was pretty good, I just wish we'd gotten news on Splatoon Raiders. Good to know there are megas outside of the leaked ones too.

Anybody got any predictions for tomorrow's direct?

I've got my Mario Kart World DLC ideas ready

Bananza has the same developers as 3D Mario BUT the game has been in development since 2021 for the Switch 1. A new 3D Mario developed for Switch 2 could definitely be on the way (it won't be out this year tho. The rest of this year is booked)

Wii Sports is pretty un-Mario related, no? Also calling everything from Wii - Switch 1 a singular era is crazy (as is NES - DS.)

I think the second generation would be Super Mario Bros. Then 3rd 64 (for 3D and it includes the party games and Sunshine) Then DS - Wii with NSMB. 3DS -WiiU starting with 3D Land. Switch by itself simply due to how long it lasted (starting with Odyssey). New Switch 2.

That's just me though. You could go about this anybwhich way tbh.

How are you counting generatoons?

I really meant non-Mario games too but that's good.

If you mean 'where are the games for the 40th anniversary' then

1: World was just a month ago
2: They'll do a direct some time soon(anywhere from next week - September), it won't be announced before Bananza comes out tho.
3: They've got a lot of games unannounced that they're sitting on. Both Bananza & World started as Switch 1 games after all. Raiders as well, probably.

We'll definitely get something, and if not, then maybe you'll be able to play something else.
