OK. Before I go to bed.

I'm gonna throw out a few games that could be the "Unexpected" 3rd Party port. Not taking into account if they were long predicted or via cloud or physical/digital.

OK. Two of those could go to the Cloud (Resi and maybe ME) but Granblue Versus and Alan Wake scream will eventually be ported. Scarlet Nexus is possible but unsure. Maybe replace with Code Vein.

The Witness is surprising to have not been ported. And I would have included Ezio Collection but then it happened and Persona but I'm gonna keep guessing forever.

There's my thoughts. I'm going to bed.

I know that the one thing I want most from the Direct is never going to be given to me

So, I'm on a small voice over Discord that does group VO workouts weekly, and I was so freaking nervous. Especially seeing as several industry professionals were in the VC, and we were reading Shakespeare, which I have NEVER read. But apparently everyone liked the read and OH MY HEART IS BEATING OUT OF MY CHEST.

Also, I'm quite late to the Direct discussion, but here's my predictions for the direct. I usually don't have predictions for this sorta stuff, but I do now, so...
  • A mention/news on the Mario movie at least, a teaser/image at most.
  • Kirby And The Forgotten Land news.
  • Breath Of The Wild 2 stuff. (Maybe?)

And it like, will not happen... but Silksong news would be nice. :4pacman:

Nintendo Direct inbound?

Cue my hype train music as per usual:


I definitely won't be available until after the Direct due to bus riding so everyone have fun and keep it clean!

“The battle zone project has started!”
Slightly unrelated but if we ever get a region based in Russia i hope they mention the battle zone somewhere in that game, Since that area's real world equivalent is an island in Russia.

Almost forgot to post it here today, but the next Black History Month drawing I did was Prowler. The ORIGINAL Prowler Hobie Brown. He was one of the first black heroes in Marvel, the first in Spider-Man. I believe he predates Storm who debuted in 1975 with Nightcrawler and Colossus. Hobie, unlike many of their other anti-heroes, wasn't a killer like Punisher/Deadpool/Black Widow ect. He was a down on his luck thief that Peter connected with since they were the same age more or less. From there he became a hero. He even had a mini series that was drawn by a Pre-Image Todd Macfarlane, where you can see him look a little bit closer to Spawn.

Power rangers will probably try to adapt this, a male pink ranger feels like the kind of diverse thing they would do.

I could totally see the Power rangers staff giving the black ranger an annoying Sonic-esque voice.

Caught my first ever shiny Gastly in Legends, also my first ever shiny of the Gengar line in general.

Tried getting another Peat Block because I lost the one I had by dying in a dumb way; I had another but lost it in a previous death... At least for the previous one I died by getting mauled, this time I just jumped and fell while riding Wyrdeer thinking I’d survive the fall and didn’t think to call Braviary ._. Seems like it takes forever to get another one if you’re not lucky…

And (big postgame spoilers) geez Volo ain’t messing around; I beat his whole team thinking I won, sike Giratina is here and no team heal; beat Giratina, sike he gets his Origin Form, still no team heal and he finishes me off.

also since Dialga and Palkia also get Origin Forms now does that mean their main forms are their Altered Forms? 🤔

Been playing Legends Arceus this past week, and I'm really enjoying a lot. Only just beat the 4th Noble, but I have spent sixty hours in the game and still haven't finished the main story and is the first video game in a while that has me playing it almost nonstop. It's got this exploration magic that I haven't felt since I played Breath of the Wild, to the point I'm not even sure whether I prefer BotW or this.

Well, didn't play it today since I had other stuff to attend to, but I did hear about the new Nintendo Direct. I think I should be able to watch it live tomorrow, though I really don't have much expectations going into it other than a new Kirby and the Forgotten Land trailer.

Jeez


It's soo.... weird not really being excited for a Nintendo Direct.


Like, I'm sure there'll be a lot of neat things shown off but, with Smash done, I just feel... apathetic? Complacent? Like, I don't feel a burning desire to watch it like I used to. It's nice in a way, but also a little sad.
I mean, same, but I don't mind it too much as there can still be nice surprises.

Also, gamers are less likely to be vocally and needlessly furious over commercials because expectations are lower.

Bold of you to suggest people aren't expecting a new DK, new FE, Prime 4 news, Pimin 4, BotW2, Odyssey 2, Banjo Threeie, Sonic Frontiers and NSO being decent

All I want is BOTW 2 news. I can guarantee that when I get that game its going to be the only thing I play for a month.
