Golden Sun Remakes/Golden Sun 3
Metroid Prime Trilogy for Switch
Metroid Prime 4
Metroid Fusion Sequel
New info on Pokemon DP remakes (new features etc)
Hollow Knight Silksong trailer with release date
Switch Pro reveal

This is my wishlist
And not a single thing from this will happen

---

Aw yeah bring that Switch Prime Trilogy announcement that's not gonna happen

Hoping for DDLC content in Smash too, like a mii fighter or something. I don't expect that either but at least the chances have gone up from 'literally zero'

Golden Sun 3

I have good news and bad news

I do wonder how much nintendo has to show for people to consider them the winner of E3 over Microsoft

I'm guessing switch pro plus at least 2 of the big guns (zelda, metroid, Bayonetta, etc)

Although if breath of the wild 2 isn't there at all I bet people will be disappointed no matter what else it shown


---

Although Breath of the wild is always weird for me because leading up to that game's release I had little hype for it and then obviously it ended up being one of the best open world games I've ever played

And I'm approaching the sequel with the same mindset like I don't really care if it's there or not

I refuse to acknowledge the existence of Dark Dawn (na not really that was just a brain fart I meant Golden Sun 4)

---

I don't trust Camelot to make a good Golden Sun game at this point either way.

---

I liked Dark Dawn. There is not going to be a Golden Sun game here though!

---

Honestly there isnt one specific thing that I want them to show me, but they havent released anything big in a while now so Id there isnt anything big coming this year it will be a big disappointment

---

Mario Golf is out in a week! And Pokmon Snap was out only a month and a half ago.

I wouldnt consider either of those big but I suppose to each their own

---

Yeah it depends on where you put the threshold but theyre both full price, entirely new games with top marketing and will both sell millions. That qualifies for me!

---

Let's go codename steam 2 and 1-2-3 switch!

I still hear 3DS Mario Golf gameplay coming from my dad's room now and again so I'm looking forward to upgrading for him!

---

Probably won't get to watch this until an hour later - time to grapple with the decision of going in blind or letting B8's hilarious reactions spoil me.

That would unironically still be better than 95% of this E3 so far.
---

Xbox was pretty solid, I don't get this thing of Ninty needing to 'save' E3.

I'm keeping my expectations low because Nintendo can land anywhere between 0 and 100 on any given day. Hopefully they'll improve their online library or something.

---

New WarioWare please!

As reference I will recommend the episode of The Likely Lads where they have to go for an entire day without learning the score of a football match.

Why do people think they will show Switch Pro when they said its exclusively about software

that would be hardware

---

because they lie all the time in their Direct descriptions

---

surprise Switch Pro is a virtual console

True
Fucking rumors set expectations too high

---

Maybe they will announce it during the Treehouse stuff, I guess that would not be lying technically. Theyve announced stuff during those streams before

---

theyre not going to announce the biggest thing at the minor stream
---

nintendo switch pro bass fishing

---

Gonna get that Xbox game pass and Master Chief on Smash confirmed.

---

im hoping for a rhythm heaven

Im also waiting for a punch out and a kid icarus, but those arent happening

---

Man people are piiiiiiiissed about this last minute co-streaming ban.

Rightfully so, major dick move.

---

What happened with costreaming?

---

I get the sense that Rhythm Heaven Megamix was the last were gonna get of that series, with the way it collected so many of the songs from previous games, plus the medical issues the producer/composer went through right around the time of that games development and release.

---

I don't think any major outlets are going to follow that anyway

---

(I think it's an old listing)

---

Can't do it. They put out a statement like an hour ago in Japanese only saying nobody is allowed to stream alongside the presentation with their reactions.


---

The co-streaming thing is 1. likely a Japan only thing, none of their other accounts have said anything about it and 2. Probably refers only to streams that are just rehosting the video with no commentary

Twitch just stated they have been informed they will have to follow the guideline.

It's specifically WITH commentary. They said you can only host a reaction live if you don't have any video or audio feed alongside you, and that you can make a reaction video that you post after it finishes airing but not do one live concurrently.

---

Also you can post the video with direct footage afterwards. Its a storm in a teacup.

---

Bold prediction: we will see an Animal Crossing update

that's not really what their tweet said!

also twitch is dumb and probably wrong

---

vtubers already got streams goin', english and otherwise

of course they don't direct feed tho so

---

Twitch said they aren't airing the event at all anymore because people can't co-stream.

Patrick Klepeck currently desperately reaching out to contacts to get confirmation.

What a shitshow.

---

Let's goooo Tomodachi/Miitopia sequel

Would begrudgingly accept a Tomodachi port and I hate ports

no they didnt. Like Nintendo Japan is definitely being dumb here but Twitch did not say that

---

I wonder if they open with the Smash reveal... and then close with the second Smash reveal.

That tweet from Twitch is pretty cut and dry.

---

Save me Nintendo, you are my last hope

---

no predictions here other than we'll get one smash character at least

could be the best nintendo direct in a long time or one of the worst
