Please give us a Switch Pro announcement, the current hardware limping along is becoming hard to watch.


With the Switch being 4 years old i feel like it's now or never.

Putting the focus on released games is interesting. Have they ever put something like that in their announcement before? Smash and probably Animal Crossing updates makes sense, but they're the only two games still expecting new content. I wonder if there's gonna be a surprise update for something older like Mario Kart. Oh, I could also easily see a Ring Fit expansion.

I wouldnt think too much on the whole first half of 2021 thing, as they said focusing on, which usually means some stuff from outside that window.

The Switch is still selling ridiculously well every month, there's no rush for them to release a new one. But it's certainly possible, sure.

The Feb 2019 one also announced Astral Chain iirc which then came out that summer, so hey maybe Bayo 3 is finally ready to show. I'm not believing BotW2 until it happens.

The wording is available games like Smash AND games coming to Switch in the first half of 2021 with no indication of what the split there is going to be. So I wouldnt worry too much about that.

Want-
Metroid Prime 4
Metroid Prime Trilogy
Skyward Sword for Switch
Resident Evil Revelations 3
Ace Attorney 7 (100% won't happen in a Nintendo Direct first)
That rumored Ace Attorney collection with DGS1 and DGS2
A DPPT remakes but that will probably be saved for Pokemon Day next week...(it falls on Saturday apparently...wonder if that will change things)

And a personal, random thing I want-
Golden Sun Trilogy remakes or just plain Golden Sun 4 and Isaac for Smash because come on we suffered long enough and Camelot doesn't do anything for 3 years now

I didn't say anything about being worried. I want to see a big Animal Crossing update and perhaps other stuff like that, lol.

Honestly, my gut feeling is Chun-Li for Smash. With this month being the 30th anniversary of Street Fighter II, it would make a lot of sense.

It could also be Crash Bandicoot or Ryu Hayabusa, though. Those are my secondary guesses.

While I wouldn't particularly mind Chun-Li herself, I'd be a bit disappointed that a 3rd party series got a third character over an unrepped series or a lacking 1st party series.

Yes most of the choices are pretty obvious and I don't put much stock in it myself but it was posted before Banjo and DQ Hero were released and every character released so far (except Min-Min) is on the list.

I'm not saying take it as law or anything but just some interesting choices.

Been hoping for a Metroid Prime Trilogy release for a long time now. Thought it'd be likely before Prime 4, but that could still be a long time.

That list has everyone people believe has a chance basically and so it missed Min Min.

I'm done trying to figure out Sakurai after he held up three fingers and it was binary for 17, which referred to that TH was the 17th FE game.

I've come around on this. I'd love to see it happen, and I was basically 100% against it a year ago.

Like he is legitimately the best possible character to put in at this point.
I dunno if I'd go THAT far but I really can't think of a good reason to NOT put him in.

I'm hyped for this Direct because it will be our first regular Direct in more than a year, as all of the other Directs were either Mini Directs, Partner Showcases, or focused on specific games or series.

Feels more of a coincidence, in particular because they have it a different name in Japan.

Sora is absolutely a character who would be perfect for Smash, but remember, he is a Disney property. I would say it is quite unlikely given how protective they are.

I think there's a bigger chance of Mickey getting in than Sora. If you're already in serious negotiations with DISNEY in regards to a fighter in Smash, you may as well go big with their mascot. Non-Video Game character or not.
