Here is Nintendo's Twitch to help those have a shortcut of sorts for tomorrow -

https://www.twitch.tv/nintendo

Right, to give this thread purpose and get some sort of conversation flowing until tomorrow, lemme ask you all these questions -

What are some expectations you lot all got?

Wadda think/hope is gonna pop up?

Who do you think might pop up in the new Smash Bros?

Do you believe Reggie's body will still be ready?

imma prolly b workin then so fingers crossed it gets uploaded somewhere so I can Watch it when I come back

n1 wish is smash w/ smash themed special edition switch (they're deff talking about smash, no doubt) pikmin 4 would be nice I remember people saying wario land's IP had been renewed or something so that could be cool too News about the fire emblem (I think?) we're supposed to get this holidays uhhhh I feel like we're gonna get some mario party? Maybe? what else what else Probably splatoon 2 content since today(?) we had the splat contest thing Oh yeah, it would be great to hear about some mario & Luigi game on the switch. I swear I remember them saying they were working on one. I'm sure they'll talk about prime 4 too. Hmm... I also feel like there could be some F zero stuff. Older games getting ported to the switch too. Not Nintendo games though.

I wouldn't be surprised to see vault boy pop up in smash bros. could be a fun little character like mr. game and watch.

bethesda has been working with nintendo lately and would be a good way to nod to their newfound relationship.

I-I don't have a switch.

So I don't really know what I want to happen in the direct. All I can ask is they release a new Animal Crossing trailer so Animal Crossing satanic rituals finally go away from my timeline on twitter.

As cool as it is to see Skyrim coming to the Switch, I'm not excited about it for several reasons. 1 the Nintendo Switch isn't as powerful as other consoles (or PC's for that matter). That means either the graphics will be sh*tty or the load times will be long (or both). 2 this game will be sold at full price, even though it's like 10 years old now. If a Bethesda character showed up in Smash Bros I'd be very surprised, but then again we've gotten Final Fantasy and Sonic characters so I guess it wouldn't be that weird. Also I remember a while ago they announced a Yoshi game in development for Switch (some sort of cardboard Yoshi thing). Would be cool if they showed more gameplay footage from of that.

Todd Howard put on such a clinic that I doubt Reggie even has it in him to top that.

I don't have a switch and don't plant on getting one so I don't really care that much. Anything for the new Smash would be pretty good though because my friends are probs gonna get a switch for it.

My predictions are

Likely

Smash
Fire Emblem
More info on Pokemon Let's Go
Bayonetta 3

Possible but less likely

Metroid Prime
Pokemon 2019

Other than those I'm not really sure. I'm probably forgetting things and it's Nintendo so I'd expect a curveball or two that just aren't predictable. There will be at least something new that no-one would have called.

New about the Fire Emblem switch game that was announced over a year ago but we haven't heard anything since.

Honestly Pokemon, Smash, and Fire Emblem are really the only games I care about besides League.

Well as a Smash direct it was good but as an E3 conference that was above and beyond disappointing.

I read that every character (or almost every character) from previous Smash Bros games is coming back. I also read an article saying that Gamecube controllers will be compatible with this game. All great news. I just hope Nintendo actually releases the full game and not a bunch of DLC.
