It’s that time of the year again. Big video game announcements are just around the corner, and I’m going to make some predictions about them. They’re probably pretty bad predictions, my results never turn out too accurate, but it’s fun to do anyway. This is also an interesting year as Nintendo will have just released the Switch 2 when these shows air, and Xbox is in a very different place than it traditionally has been. But here’s my predictions!

How About That Direct?| Nintendo Switch 2 4/2/25
After months of waiting and rampant speculation, we finally got some real information on the Nintendo Switch 2. Obviously, I’ve been losing my mind over the possibilities this whole time. There are very few things I enjoy as much as I enjoy a new Nintendo platform’s launch, and this is only the second one to happen since I started writing this blog! But, did the Direct live up to my expectations?

We are officially less than a month away from the Nintendo Direct that will reveal all the details on the Nintendo Switch 2. I thought it would be fun to make predictions on what we’ll be seeing. I also thought it would be fun to use my E3 Prediction rules. But since we’re only predicting one show, let’s do two predictions for each category.
Continue readingHow About That Direct? Super Nintendo World Direct (Donkey Kong Country) 11/11/24
Today, Nintendo held another Nintendo Direct. This one was not about any games though. This isn’t the first time this has happened though. They did one for the Super Mario Bros. Movie, and they did one for the Super Nintendo World amusement park. Today’s is actually about the first expansion to Super Nintendo World, Donkey Kong Country. So what kind of stuff did they have to say?

I realized today that I never did a results post for my E3 predictions this year. It’s way, way too late for that now, but you know what? I’m writing a post every day this month, so why not finally talk about how I did. Feel free to go back and look at what I was saying back in May (yes, May!) before seeing how I did.

After many rumors and lots of speculation, we got our first Nintendo Direct of the year this week. It wasn’t too hard to guess that there would be one, there’s almost always one in either January or February. And sure enough, we got one. Was it any good? You probably already know this, but yes, it was very good. Let’s talk about it.
Talking About That Nintendo Direct That Might Be Happening Soon
If you follow gaming rumors at all, you’ve almost certainly heard about the possible Nintendo Direct hitting in the coming weeks. Personally, I don’t think any of the “leaks” are real, but I do think they’re popping up now because a Direct being right around the corner makes a lot of sense. There’s almost always one in either January or February, and since we didn’t get one in January, it makes sense that we can expect one very soon.
How About That Direct?| Monster Hunter Digital Event January 2021
Earlier this morning, Capcom streamed the first presentation of the year that fits the “Nintendo Direct” description. It’s actually kind of weird that it wasn’t a proper Direct, considering it was for information on the Nintendo Switch exclusive title Monster Hunter Rise. But anyway, let’s talk about the presentation, what I liked, what I didn’t, and maybe some of the news itself.
How About That Direct?| Animal Crossing Direct 2/20/20
It’s safe to say that Nintendo fans are pretty starved for big announcements. We’re currently in the biggest gap between general Nintendo Directs in the history of Nintendo Directs being a thing and we have no idea what the company plans to release after March. So, when Nintendo announced an Animal Crossing Direct a couple days ago, it was easy to be a little disappointed. But, that game is only a month out and we knew very little about it. So, from that sense, this makes sense. Continue reading
How About That Direct? | Pokemon Direct 1/9/20
At the start of every year, Nintendo fans start to go a little crazy. There’s always an early Nintendo Direct that highlights what to expect In the first several months and sometimes stuff even further off. As such, it was a little disappointing when Nintendo announced a couple days ago that the first Direct of the year would be one focused on Pokemon, rather than a more general Nintendo Direct. But hey, I like Pokemon, so maybe there will be something cool here. Continue reading
