Join us on Sept 12 at 6am PT for a Nintendo Direct! Tune in for roughly 60 minutes of information on upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch games.
even if you’re a nintendo fan, you don’t have to tune in to 1 hour of advertisements, you know
i promise, once it’s over you’ll find out about all announcements you care about in other ways
Yeah but while it ain’t for me at all (I prefer written news), I know a lot of people do enjoy this format.
Watching new trailers is fun.
I don’t understand why people have issues with shows like this, it’s not like ads on annoying news websites, people want to watch them, I’m not watching but I think it’s quite exciting waiting for a trailer you want to see (silksong for example) compared to seeing it in a news article afterwards.
Screw that—that 30 minute premiere for Kirby Air Riders was pure bliss. If it’s a game I love, I want all the detes I can get.
This is the same fanbase that dropped $500 for a slightly better Nintendo Switch, there’s no reasoning with them.
Did Nintendo directs used to be better? Was it iwatas touch? Am I just nostalgic?
nintendo directs were always advertisements, it’s kinda their goal: to advertise to you upcoming nintendo products
I guess Iwata and Reggie made them more pleasant to watch, but they were still ads
Silksong news, probably??
Oh wait, autopilot.
I’m hoping for new Zelda or Mario news. Very excited.
Seems too soon to be announcing a 3D Mario or Zelda for holiday release, but I could see them announcing something for spring release in hopes of boosting holiday sales.
Tbh I think TOTK and BOTW have enough legs, especially with the Switch 2 releases, and I suspect the next Zelda will take some time because it’ll be a much different installment than the last two. But goddamn if I’m not ready for a new 3D Mario.
Wasn’t a lot of the usual names from the 3d mario studio’s last game (dk) missing from the credits? I heard someone say it’s probably because they were working on a 3d mario in parallel… hopefully
I’m ready for any news regarding anything Mario or Zelda, no matter the release date. 😊
Others: Hopefully a new Mario or Zelda game, that‘d be so hype!
Me: Hopefully Switch 2 updates for all Xenoblades, that‘d be so hype!
(And Fire Emblem please lol)
Same! Xeno 2 needs some love given how it suffered a bit from lack of resources and time to tune it when it released. And X needs that performance patch.
All of them could do with native res and 60 fps, I hope that‘s not something that needs serious engineering power…
I just want more farming sims.
Fuck Nintendo.
Very edgy
No, actually, fuck Nintendo. Or keep licking their boots, you do you.
Dude stop. There’s no ethical consumption in post-/late stage capitalism. Nintendo is no worse than Microsoft, Sony, Steam, I could go on and on. Let people play their fucking video games—it’s one of the only nice things about living in this modern day. Fucking sheesh.
Microsoft and Sony aren’t currently trying to sue other developers into the ground. Nintendo is.
Fuck Nintendo and quit licking their boots

Thank you.

Being mildly excited for new announcements = licking a company’s boots and “prostating yourself at the altar”
Log off already.
Hey man if you enjoy being ripped off and shilling for a trash company that sues everyone and their mom for making a cookie in the shape of mario, then maybe you ought to log off as well. Maybe get some perspective and evalute some life choices.
