I literally got a 3DS today and was hoping the virtual console would have Metroid Fusion and Circle of the Moon, and I was pretty disappointed that that's not the case, so I also hope that happens. :(

Yeah it's a bit silly that it's not an option yet. You'd think at the very least with them hyping the "EXTRA POWER!" of the N3DS they could emulate the drat GBA.

Lol they won't be announcing SNES or gba virtual console, or any virtual console stuff, Nintendo has forgotten about the 3ds virtual console

Chibi Robo Zip Lash is £13 on TGC (ships everywhere in EU for cheap). No amiibo and no idea if that screws with game progress or whatever, but it's currently the cheapest price in Europe.

Yeah you're probably right :(

In all likelihood the 3DS portion of the presentation will go "hey, remember Fire Emblem? It's still coming out in the US eventually!"

It's so stupid too. From an "effort vs return" standpoint, there's so much money to be gained, just being left on the table. So strange.

You can't get the bonus levels or figures without the Amiibo, so not much.

Here's my real predictions in no particular order:

Wii U:
- More info on Shin Megami Tensei x Fire Emblem, no release date ("2016")
- New Zelda U footage, no release date ("2016")
- New Starfox U footage, release date
- Xenoblade Chronicles X
- Mario Tennis
- Animal Crossing Amiibo Festival
- DLC: Mario Maker, Yoshi's Woolly World, Splatoon

3DS:
- Fire Emblem 3DS release date
- Hyrule Warriors 3DS release date
- Triforce Heroes blip
- Legend of Legacy blip
- Pimping out that ho called Yo-Kai Watch
- Nintendo Badge Arcade
- New 3DS, faceplates available in US (maybe in time for Christmas)
- Some sort of Virtual Console only compatible with New 3DS (SNES probably)
- Please buy Animal Crossing Happy Home Designer

General:
- Bill Trinen replaces Iwata as US Direct host
- RIP Wii U, RIP Iwata
- Why you need all this amiibo poo poo
- No mention of mobile, NX stuff

Just predictions from me. I have no hopes for this Direct. Well, maybe a Jibanyan faceplate I can buy in a store for $15 and not pay $40 to import from Japan.

With the game at £13 it is cheaper to get the game and Amiibo separately than the combo pack around £34.

In the badge menu on the Home screen you can select "Pin Badge To Folder" and then you select the badge and the folder. Now I have a Super Mario folder with an NES Mario and a Zelda folder with NES Link and I have spent nothing and the world is beautiful.

Something Pokemon related should be in the direct.

If they really wanted a shock announcement, Pokemon Z would probably be it. This would most likely focus on Q1 2016 and February is the 20 year anniversary of the Japanese versions of Red and Green.

I can pin stuff on the folders just fine, I mean on actual Downloaded games.

Because gently caress you if you wanna catch all 151. Also something something buy the latest versions anyway because they're not horrifying bug filled messes.

Red and Blue, even ignoring aesthetic limitations, are not acceptable-quality game experience by 2015 standards. Their rerelease would damage the Pokemon brand in the minds of the core demographic of 7-14 year olds.

Well poo poo, I wanted to start a twitch channel and stream Monster Hunter X when it comes out at the end of the month, but it turns out there is a 6 month+ waiting list for by mail Capture Software modifications, or even entirely new pre-installed 3ds purchases. Are there any alternative methods to streaming that anyone knows of other than having the software from this place http://www.3dsvideocapture.com/ or just pointing a webcam at the 3ds?
