nintendo direct predictions woooooooooo

1. actual words about the switch 2 hardware lol im over watching the thing dance around lol. i wanna hear about the mysterious c button, power, menu, etc. i really hope the c is for "connect" like a new miiverse but its probably just "chat".

2. 3d mario launch title trailer. why? well this year is mario's 40th anniversary. and it's been 8 years since we last got the very successful last one, super mario odyssey. my prediction was almost metroid prime 4 but we already know about it and idk if the audience is general enough. dont get me wrong it has a good fanbase but it doesnt appeal to little kids and their moms yk?

3. full mario kart 9 trailer. pretty obvious. super curious on the new appeal of the game as the graphics arent gonna be too different it seems. but a game dev on youtube did show us why it is still certainly an improvement. but yeah we are likely getting new mechanics and 24 racers.

5. pokemon legends z-a news...if we don't get news in pokemon presents or the fabled direct mini

8. third parties. it's rumored that the switch 2 can handle lots of em.

9. splatoon 4 teaser. the gaps between the games endings and releases have been like this: one year between 1 and 2 and three between 2 and 3 i think. so it could be 1-3 years which basically means it could be any day now for the next two years. but this property is quite profitable and would be worth buying a console for, for many. splatoon fans are quite devoted.

10. any animal crossing? ...please? I NEED AN ESCAPE FOR THE NEXT FOUR YEARS. also i hope the rumor about the next game being in a city with like skyscrapers is false because i hate skyscrapers and i see animal crossing as an escape from the busyness for me. but i would still play lol maybe it'd help me get over my megalophobia.
