Yeah, I could see this happening. Again, maintenance dates. It could be third-parties, first-parties, Mario anniversary, or something like that. I'd say hold out until the 3rd of August. After that, enable the big sad.
I am a firm believer in that it doesn't matter how long a presentation is, as long as the content is good the presentation is good. For example Nintendo'e E3 2017 direct is only 25 minutes long and only had a handful of games at most, with the only third party game being Rocket League. Yet its often praised due to having great trailers for Mario Odyssey and Xenoblade 2 and game reveals for Kirby Star Allies, Yoshi's Crafted World, Metroid Prime 4, and that mainline Pokemon would be coming to the system. Meanwhile their E3 2015 direct is consider a disaster despite it being 48 minute long due to how bad the big game reveals were.
Separate directs, I tell you. The maintenance dates, the NEW tab disappearing, the likely lack of first-parties. They're probably short on editors, so it's spaced out accordingly. Besides, the deficit of news means a first-party direct would get even more hype after this.
Voice over is another big problem I imagine they are facing, the Min Min presents had no English dub and was subtitled. This is likely due to the guy who typically does the English dub for the presentations not having access to the equipment as its both very big and needs a studio for it to work ideally and on top of that is very expensive. Just look at the Anime industry with English dubs, it took Funimation a couple of months to dub the last couple of episodes of My Hero Academia Season 4 due to those exact problems I had just mentioned.
Someone said that Thursday and Friday are holidays in Japan, so probably not, but we could get one for each Monday for the next three weeks. One for bigger third parties, one for indies, and one for first party games. Not guaranteed at all, but definitely possible.
I know people have a bone to pick with insiders right now, but Kelios, who was the first one to peg this date back when no one thought anything was happening in July, and even nailed the time of the announcement of the announcements has said that he thinks plans have changed regarding what was to be shown in the Direct.
The chad who doesn't give a single ****, that's how.
Its geno fans, they always bring it on themselves.
Yeah, I've had it pre-ordered on Wal-Mart since February 27th, 2019..it has said it's coming out 'Dec 31st' ever since then..which is just a placeholder date.
When I go there right now, it says January 6th.
If YouTubers are still putting out weekly or even daily content, then there’s no excuse for Nintendo & its partners.
Yeah, it says that too. Do you really think...?
Mine's for an In-Store Pick-Up, which usually has it arrive the day it releases, having it shipped to you gives some leeway time.
The last two games I pre-ordered just after their announcements were The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess and Super Smash Brothers Brawl.
I dunno man when you make a tweet like this it's hard to blame geno fans for getting excited.
I think it's less to do with what will be shown and more to do with what he knows won't be.
I doubt it, January 6th is a Wednesday, Nintendo is Bayonetta 3's publisher, unless something chances, so it would likely release on a Friday as is typical for Nintendo releases.
It usually works out for me just fine, even if its delayed, this one is just bothersome now because it wants me to change my payment info since my debit card expires before Dec 31st but of course since it hasn't expired yet, I can't 'fix' the payment info..and it won't let me cancel the order without 'fixing' it..Wal-Mart's site kinda sucks..but I get the games on release almost every time and I go there almost everyday for work anyway, so I put up with it.
Yeah he likely knows what the holiday line and maybe early 2021 line up is, but is very baffle how Nintendo is just outright not communicating it.
Well, it actually has about the same amount of 1st/2nd Party Support, it just seems like less due to how much 3rd Party support there is so there's a smaller percentage..its also a lot of Wii U ports/Deluxe Editions, so it feels like less 'new' 1st/2nd Party games.
The Wii U ports are kinda overstated I would say though, last one we got was Tokyo Mirage Sessons back in January and the one before that was New Super Mario Bros Deluxe which was a full year prior.
Who knows? Maybe what is there is worse than what isn't. Sounds alarmist I know but was anyone expecting Bakugan?
With our current standing knowledge of what exists?
Nintendo does seem to be dropping the ball pretty hard right now.
Something interesting that I notice is that the two first party reveals we had this year (club house and paper mario) went up for pre-order on the eshop and could be pre-loaded right after they were revealed, which basically the game is done. It seems like if anything they might be not wanting to take any chances or break any promises and only reveal games when there is no chance they are gonna get delayed.
I haven't had the best luck with it, whether it's delays or incompetence on the retailers end. Eventually I just realized there wasn't any point in pre-ordering because there's little chance that any game will completely sell out at every store in my area.
It seems to me that Nate's strong reactions are because Nintendo has fantastic **** planned out but they don't want to show any of it for some reason and want to trickle it down as if their new releases are NSO VC games
