Any Nintendo fans here in Beehaw? If so, there's an incoming Nintendo Direct! - Beehaw

I'm personally hoping for some news on Splatoon 3's Side Order dlc
Yes! Splatoon is so underrated outside of Japan. I've really been enjoying the game and would love to have a big contentful dlc to work through
Oh hell ya! Just wishing for an HD remake of Mario RPG lol
That would probably require cooperation with square, which would finally open the door to proper sequels. I’d cry. (No shade on the paper Mario and Mario and Luigi games, they are great series in their own rights, just not the same.)
Ummmm so they announced it XD

I'm pretty excited to see what this ends up having. Nintendo has already done a lot of the big obvious things with the Switch, which leaves the window open for lesser used IPs or more unique game concepts.

Or they can do sequels, which is still pretty exciting since it's a chance to improve on what are already some really strong titles.

tbh it seems like nintendo is doing the opposite of that. they used to have a lot of random smaller games/ips, but it's been feeling like they've been centralizing into their few core IPs and nothing else. like, we haven't even gotten a 2d zelda on switch yet (grezzo did LA remake but that's not really a new game).
Clearly this is the one where they show off Metroid Prime 4, right? And the new F-Zero? šŸ™‚
If there is a F-Zero than we see a new Golden sun as well
And Mother 3, Mario Odyssey 2, Gamecube Switch Online and of course Switch Pro!
and silksong lol
I have my clown makeup ready! 🤔
My mom said they're gonna announce paperboy 2
Cautiously optimistic for Pikmin 4, here.
ever since they showed off the character customization I've been conflicted on the game. I liked the pikmin series and was planning on picking up 4, but that changed my mind to maybe avoid it...
Can we get the next set of MK tracks? Pikmin is the next MK character, let’s goooo!
Awesome, thanks for the heads up.
According to leaks, there's going to be a new 2D Mario game (It will not have "New" in the title, thankfully) and a "remake of a SNES Classic" (I believe it'll be a Chrono Trigger HD-2D remake).
As long as they don't change too much, a Chrono Trigger remake sounds amazing!

a new 2d mario that's not an nsmb title? that's hype af honestly.

my hopes:

  • more info on fashion dreamer (curious to see how nintendo responds now that the marvelous showcase happened and clarified officially)

  • a comment/bit on pretty princess magical garden island which is literally releasing the day after the direct

  • some other new girly/femme game would be nice, though I know nintendo is kinda shying away form that

  • I'd like to see a 2d zelda too.

Style Savvy Switch when, Nintendo?

have you not heard? style savvy was murdered by nintendo. Syn Sophia, the developers of style savvy, wanted to make a 5th game and got shut down hard by nintendo. They then did a complete ip rebrand and struggled to find a publisher, at which point marvelous stepped in. It's called Fashion Dreamer and is planned to be a continued fashion series by syn sophia. It's basically style savvy, in all but official ip/branding. Same dev, same goal (fashion game), etc.

Given Nintendo's hard rejection, Style Savvy is dead for the foreseeable future. And if Fashion Dreamer does well (which it should if all style savvy fans buy it which they should if they like style savvy), Nintendo might realize it's good to have style savvy and revive; but if that happens I sincerely doubt syn sophia will return to develop them.

tl;dr: style savvy is dead, and nintendo murdered it. a revival might happen if Fashion Dreamer (marvelous/syn sophia game) does well, but if it does revive, it almost certainly won't be syn sophia developing it again, so not really the same.

Buy Fashion Dreamer if you like Style Savvy

Oh no, I hadn't heard! Definitely putting Fashion Dreamer on my list, then! We need more "girl games" that devs have actually put effort into.

Any Nintendo fans

to choose from.
wait, .world is one that Beehaw has defederated from, hasn't it?

My dream announcement is a new golden sun game or a remake of the first 2/3.

Beyond that pipe dream, I always get excited to see the buzz around things like this!

I would love a Golden Sun port or new game! I LOVED the one on GBA! Such a fun puzzle rpg. It did have a TON of dialogue though....
Yeah, it was campy and long winded at times, but the puzzles were great, the class system was unique and creative, and the music was second to none. It's a small magazine and a small community altogether, but I'm proud to be the moderator.
i would do truly unspeakable things for a wind waker switch port...
Might want to put a disclaimer that the WiiU port doesn’t count
It was really good to be honest.
I miss being excited about Nintendo games.. they just don't seem to live up to my hopes/expectations anymore ā˜¹ļø
I'm getting older and feeling the same way about a lot of things, but I still can't wait to have time to check out the new Zelda game, and I have no doubt it's going to blow my mind. :)
As an old man who has clocked 150 hours, yes, it will. :)
What do you think is missing/has changed?
yup I'm very interested to see if Fashion Dreamer makes an appearance, given the corporate drama around it and the fact that it's scheduled for a 2023 release yet we haven't gotten a release date yet.
I'll still ride the copium train hoping for a Wind Waker HD port or something similar. New Mario game would also be pretty neat.
Any chance of them announcing they're getting out of the hardware business? As much as I love me some Nintendo, I really don't think I'll be buying another console from them.

I sincerely doubt they'll leave the hardware business. The Switch is their most successful home console of all time, ranking third in overall video game console sales.

It's annoying to have to buy multiple consoles to enjoy the best experiences that video gaming has to offer, but I wouldn't bank on Nintendo leaving anytime soon.

Thanks for the heads up! Notification set, interested to see what's shown...
Come oonn new Animal Crossing! šŸ¤ž
@dan96kid I saw that, is this their big E3 type direct?
Somewhat... They tend to have 3 big ones every year, and this is one of them.

I'm excited to see what they're going to showcase. The rumor mill is running rampant on Twitter that a new 2D Mario game and an SNES remaster will be shown.

Assuming these are true, I hope we're getting a 2D Mario that isn't a "New Super Mario Bros" title since that franchise is nearly 20 years old at this point. Give us something new. Call it "Super Mario Bros. 5", even. Just something that isn't part of the "New" series.

As for an SNES remaster, Super Mario RPG in a tilt-shift style Link's Awakening remaster would be lovely. A Chrono Trigger remaster in the style of Octopath or Live a Live would also be lovely.

But ultimately I'll just wait it out with hopeful optimism that they have some good stuff in the pipeline.

I never knew I wanted a tilt-shift style Super Mario RPG but now its all I can think of. It'd be an interesting challenge to redo those old games, but they proved it doable with Link's Awakening.
There is a rumor leak that square is working on the October style chrono trigger. I belive they are also doing one for DQIII.
Super Mario RPG Remake was announced! You called it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0r5PJx7rlds
Yaaaaaaas! It looks like they stayed true to the original game, so this is a day 1 pickup for me.
It feels like we're getting toward the end of the switch life cycle, but sales are still strong and Nintendo probably would love to hold onto this install base they have. Wonder if we get some acknowledgement of that life cycle or potentially a new console soon.

Maybe, but unlikely. I've seen a couple articles about it being likely next year. Nintendo wants to sell most of their current stock first.
