Getting my clown makeup ready for Silksong :)

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I hope for Silksong, but i don't think they show it. The dev's already said, it will still take some time and we would probably see it at the microsoft conference if it's near release date

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

Personally, I’m getting ready for Mother 3 and Kid Icarus: Uprising.

[–] amtwon 6 points 2 years ago

Climbing in the clown car now :)

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

Send in the clowns, this one included!

[–] swancheez 3 points 2 years ago

I'll be joining you.

Hoping for Metroid Prime 4 or the next remaster of MP2.

This feels so weird to me. Pikmin 4 has been my silly “haha what if they finally announced/released it” game for a while now, and the fact that it’s almost actually out makes me wonder what game I should joke about existing next.

[–] JonDorfman 7 points 2 years ago

Just wait a year or two. I’m certain Miyamoto will tell us development on Pikmin 5 is going well and the game is near completion by then. That should be some good meme material until at least 2030.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago

Since that seems to work for you, could you please hope for Sid Meiers Pirates! 2?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I hope we get new info on Metroid Prime

[–] slimerancher 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Or shadow drop of Prime 2 and 3 remaster.

Finally! So, what are you all hoping for this Nintendo Direct? Also, if you saw the leak, do you think they're real?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Hoping either for some more Gamecube remakes, e.g. Twilight Princess, or for Gamecube games being added to Nintendo Switch Online.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (4 children)

Please, Nintendo, just port Twilight Princess and Wind Waker.

Is there a good alternative to r/gamingleaksandrumours on Lemmy? Haven't been able to find one and it's not as easy to follow new leaks on their Discord server

[–] VioletteRei 4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

For now, no. I use feedly and put the subreddit in it. Since it use RSS, Reddit don't generate revenues of me. I can see all the leaks that way. Maybe I will create a community and just repost everything there if people are interested

I came across a gaming leaks community here. I usually stay away from rumours and leaks so didn't check in details if it's active or not.

Let me see if I can find the link again.

Edit: It's a very small community with 3 posts, [email protected], so not useful for right now, but in case it grows big, or anyone want to contribute.

[–] ShadowCat 3 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Yeah I've seen that one but it's not been active for months. Hopefully it'll start up at some point

What's been leaked? I hope to see some Metroid Prime information. Maybe remasters of the two remaining ones in the Trilogy, or some preview/information on Metroid Prime 4.

[–] VioletteRei 8 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (3 children)

• A new 2D Mario game, but not in the "New" serie • A remake from a SNES RPG, it will probably be Super Mario RPG according to leakers, but could be Fire Emblem 4 (I think it have little chance to happen) or Chrono Trigger (I think it have ZERO chance to happen) • Detective Pikachu 2, leakers report that Game Freak is not ready to show us the Scarlet and Violet DLCs, so they put Detective Pikachu 2 in a Nintendo Direct and not in a Pokémon Presents

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Detective Pikachu 2

Is this a game or a new movie?

[–] thebutler 3 points 2 years ago

the rumors are for a game, the movie has been officially confirmed

I think Pyoro’s leak is real! New 2D Mario, SNES remake, and Detective Pikachu maybe? I think the remake is either a Fire Emblem 4 remake, or a Super Mario RPG remake.

[–] VioletteRei 7 points 2 years ago

I hope it's Mario RPG. I love Fire Emblem, but Mario RPG is a classic and we didn't have a Mario RPG-kind game for years

[–] 4am 2 points 2 years ago

I’ve heard Chrono Trigger is the remake. Not sure how reliable that info is.

My expectations are so low for this.

This I don't expect to see (even though it's time for all of them)

  • Metroid Prime 4 (we just got remaster)
  • Donkey Kong
  • Zelda DLC
  • 3D Mario

EDIT: OH and hell no to new hardware. Way too early for that.

I am predicting they are announcing the new system. Seems so unlikely but they always seem to do something nobody expects.

I keep my fingers crossed for GameCube content.

[–] slimerancher 6 points 2 years ago (2 children)

So, this is why they weren't announcing Persona 3 Reload for Switch. I am sure this will be announced tomorrow.

[–] VioletteRei 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Probably, with maybe a Atlus surprise

[–] slimerancher 3 points 2 years ago

Hmm... I don't think there would be a surprise, but I would happy if there is a surprise.

Since there isn't much yet on the horizon, I'm very excited to be surprised this time!

[–] dsm 5 points 2 years ago

let’s go!

[–] Gearheart 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Windwaker... All I want is windwaker. For the love of God Nintendo!

[–] Skynet 3 points 2 years ago

Me too! Crossing my fingers. I loved this game so much.

[–] crazyben 4 points 2 years ago

I really wish I wasn't so pessimistic about this Direct, but as a fan of NSMB Wii, if that series really is being killed off then that would basically be vindication for all those people who treat NSMB fans with spite, and I don't know if I could ever get over that

[–] d4rknusw1ld 4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Hoping for a 3D Mario game set in the universe again. An odyssey 2 or a new experience.

[–] mates1500 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I feel they would want to save up a blockbuster 3D mario for a new generation hardware, like Odyssey was for the Switch.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

1 mainline 3D Mario game for the whole Switch's lifespan would kinda suck

[–] Defaced 4 points 2 years ago

I'm hoping for a Galaxy 2 release for the switch, Galaxy on switch was so well done and I've never played Galaxy 2.

[–] FarmTaco 3 points 2 years ago

Super Mario RPG!? I am shocked what is next?? maybe... chrono trigger?
