Fits in line with earlier rumors that this Direct is probably going to be a Partner Showcase.
Edit: Gamecube port?

One of these days the Switch 3 is going to be real!

He means the Mariners and Nintendo is going to buy a sports team again

25 minutes seems short. Oh well, after last year's insane crop of games I could stand to catch up on other games. Plus there's still some neat stuff on my radar for early 2024.

Does “on demand” mean it’s not gonna be streamed and it’ll just release any someone will scrub through and tell us everything announced in 30 seconds?

Oh no, I would be heartbroken if someone posted early spoilers of the Nintendo Direct twenty minutes before I get to it.

Played through first two worlds of Mario vs Donkey Kong. Does it get any better? I've only died so far from assuming Mario could jump a bit further a few times when impatiently waiting for the lifts. It seems a bit charming but not great.

My money is on GameCube games on the premium tier of NSO. The extra Mario Kart DLC could be tied to that tier right and that just finished up a month or two ago? They probably need something else to drive subs.

I bet they bring Mario Sunshine out of the vault for it's launch.

GC games won’t make the jump to a library app because the file size of the isos quickly becomes prohibitive, especially considering the storage of the Switch. Not to mention the fact that Nintendo had made a living out of selling GameCube remasters lately.

I'm sure you're right but maybe they start doing some streaming tech. There's a whole load of GameCube games that will never get the full remaster treatment like 1080 Avalanche, or games that might be more valuable as part of a recurring revenue stream like the first Luigi's Mansion.

I don't know the deep lore to know what Dolphin could even refer to besides the GameCube.

Getting the cube would make me shill out for the higher tier, if I could play like SSX3 or a Skies of Arcadia again

I guess some Nintendo games as well

Ecco in concept rules. I watched some gameplay of it and the sequel recently and uh, it looks terrible. Like, it starts out neat when you're exploring the ocean but then you're navigating these awful underwater mazes with instakill stuff (I'm not talking about Enter the Machine either) and I could not imagine actually playing it, fears aside. There's even something akin to platforming in the second game, making near-blind jumps from safe spot to safe spot.
