they'll probably just show BOTW footage in the reveal of the hardware today and then be like "here's when we'll show off games", i bet the game reveals will come after the NES Classic comes out so that that maintains their retail focus for the present

e: also nov 11 (the NES Classic release date) comes after the election so they wont have to compete on the national stage with what will likely be Trump result-refusal histrionics if they show the games after that date

It probably is, since it was announced that the NX will be a complete deviation from the past.

To be fair, so was the Wii, and that had loving Gamecube controller ports.

we'll probably see some of the mario game, since people have said the reason the announcement was delayed so long was to make the new nx mario run perfectly for demo or whatever.

Well that certainly didn't stop Hello Games. :v:

i am excited for the announcement of the same analog nubs that manchildren broke on their 3dses that work fine for me for hundreds of hours of smash and other games

and the announcement also of the same lovely l/r triggers that have broken in under a year for me on every nintendo handheld

My predictions: in a 3 minute video, 90 seconds of Breath of the Wild, 30 seconds of some Mario platformer, no actual footage nor definition of what an NX is

My wishlist: Splat2n, Mother 3, Captain Toad Treasure Tracker Mo Treasure Mo Problems

I want it and won't get it: Andromeda, FF15, Undertale

why do people think there will be game news or announcements in the 3 minute video

1 minute skit
1.5 mins of specs, branding, name, showing off core feature, maybe rapidfire gameplay montage of zelda/splatoon/smash/newleaf/mariomaker/poochy&'s
30s of teasing direct early next year

It's going to be called the NX. The codename stuck and they couldn't think of anything better. The N is for Nintendo, and the X symbolizes the intersection of two distinct platform types within a single system.

You know, I wouldn't be surprised somehow if it was a smartphone style, so you play touchscreen games on the go and connect to a controller dock at home and cast to the TV for a more traditional experience. Then you could have backwards compatibility with the Wii u as well.

There's not gonna be backwards compatibility with the Wii U! Goddamn you people.

In order to show that the NX will have third party support, they'll announce that the NX is getting Metal Gear Survive. Half of the announcement video will be new gameplay footage of Metal Gear Survive

It is a 3 minute teaser video. Most likely will be broadcast "live" like the Directs.
