A new Nintendo Direct has been announced for April 12 (3PM PT/6PM ET) with new information about Nintendo Switch and 3DS games. The main focus will be on Arms and Splatoon 2, but we will probably hear about other games as well.

Anyone want to be super optimistic and hope for our first Pokémon Stars tease?!
Day 2 of Breath of the Wild I suppose
I found a statue of Hylia in the woods but I couldn’t find the item it wanted. Ill come back to it later.
After I finally left the forest I cleared a couple Shrines and found a horse stable. I found a horse and named him eggshells because his butt looks like a broken egg shell.
Then I almost had a heart attack because of the blood moon. I was going up a hill when it all went red and I started freaking out looking around for and enemy or… something. Then a freaking merchant comes walking into my view and I freak out until the cutscenes starts and Zelda starts talking. It was spooky
I wish Impa looked like how she does in Ss and OoT. I like her voice though.
Lastly I made it to that other town next to Kakariko and found a girl who wanted me to go kill some monsters. By the beach. I proceeded to spend 30 minutes trying to stealthily blow them up with bombs from atop a cliff until I could safely go in and finish off the last couple.
I adore this game
The statues of Hylia, at the Spring of Power/Wisdom/Courage, need scales from the dragons roaming around the world. At least one of them does, so I assume they all do. You can get the scales by shooting the dragon with an arrow; a scale will drop when you hit it
Woah so they just fly around?
Yeah. To give you an idea where to search you can find one around a bridge south of the great Plateau. Its a big bridge. Another one can be found in the far south of the world map. No idea where the third one is.
my biggest weakness
me plowing through levels in a day or less
i technically am to world 4/5 but all other worlds are like 1/4th finished
i think tomorrow i’ll go back to the start of each world and explore the newly expanded stuff
I’m glad you’re enjoying the game. I’m just planning on playing Banjo Kazooie after I finish up BotW along with 50 other games lol
Didn’t you play that or was that something else
Well if youse playing that youse gots to play Tooie which is the better one
I played up to the ice world
OMFG THIS TRANSFORMATION
I’m not bothering with spoilers since not a lot of people are playing
But this is the water world and the transformation is a fucking school of piranhas
Not a single fish but a whole school
So I know we all think that Castform is useless (which, basically it is), but I found out a decent set for it:
Castform
Firium-Z
Jolly/Modest
252 SP ATK, 4 SP DEF, 252 SPD
-Sunny Day
-Fire Blast
-Ice Beam
-Solar Beam
Basically, z-sunny day first turn, and fire away w/ attacks. The speed from z-sunny day helps it a lot.
I made Basculin, anything is possible
Castform is better off as Rainy form
Rain Dance (or get a Drizzler)
Scarf or life orb
Scald
Hurricane
Thunder
Free slot I found hex sometimes useful since the status
I made a collection of rants
Put it in the “Spiritual” category
And justified it with this description
“I categorized this as spiritual because my stupidity is about to enlighten the actual fuck out of you. Reach into your pants, firmly grasp your dong and get ready for me to unleash the hand of the gods out of your urethra. If you don’t have a dong, grab a pretzel stick and use it as a substitute.”

A new Pokémon game please
Why do Popplio and Noctowl get Moonblast but Togekiss doesn’t
Injustice I say
Another robbed Pkm
You know it
Probably because it’d be OP af, but still :/
Rip special sweepers
Just realized another Toxapex weakness
M-Gengar has the speed, Spe.Attack, and moveset to easily kill it plus it can’t escape due to shadow tag
But it can still set up or potentially burn you
I just picked up my Wii U and I think I just choked on dust 😡
The pro controller has been lost to the ages, can’t find it anywhere XD
I play my Wii U every day for my daily Splatoon “noob punking sessions”
I love it when snipers can’t hit me because I’m zigzagging
I haven’t touched it since I got Overwatch and the two Bravely games, I just picked it up to play some Bayo 2
Aaaargh i was hoping on having my Switch for Easter, but the store still hasn’t received the new shipment.
BREAKING: Masuda’s latest tweet “Pokemon Stars”
Don’t play with my heart boi
Its on his twitter lol
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/28f30663f5c46da33f4dda8b178db5e77e91051cb8ab010bcaf339dbdc5687b7.png
Could just be referring to masuda and ohmori as stars as in famous? Idk im being pessimistic so if we get something I’ll be happily surprised
Source you degenerate imp?
Masuda’s Twitter page?
Yeh post it
Or just take two seconds out of your life to look it up?
It’s taking several
It’s almost like two seconds wasn’t literal
1) Look up Masuda Twitter
2) Click link
3) Scroll down
Even you can’t find that hard, right?
Tell that to my junky wifi
Tweet in question for those of you too lazy to look it up
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/1098a7f99cae5d3404a058863fe897f6b1cf8a1c018d7c583a4d36ee1f7acb09.png

The Stars in question are likely just Ohmori and Masuda, I wouldn’t get my hopes up.
Also keep in mind that it’s Google translate, I’d say it looks coherent but unless we get a native speaker or someone fluent in the language then take it with a grain of salt
It’s a hint maybe? Like Sun and Moon
Could be, I’m just being a pessimist until proven optimist
well as much as it pains me i must restrain myself from overplaying Yooka-Laylee
i probably have 5-8 hours of playtime already and that was day one, i now genuinely fear finishing games too fast because if i beat them then the ride’s over
i gotta spread it out into rotations of
World of Warcraft
Splatoon (granted i only play for like 20-30 minutes)
Plague of Shadows
SOS Hunts (still pissed that Grubbin used struggle, might hunt for Mudbray next or even…Sandygast….)
and finally Yooka-laylee
I hope this direct is good because I just want I play BotW and it’s goona keep me from it
You could play BOTW and just watch it after it comes out ?
Yeah but I want to be disappointed live with everyone else
I came up with my own original shovel knight character!
His name is Night Knight. You might not be able to handle Night Knight’s might in a fight!
… I just thought the name was funny
i have like 3 Shovel Knight Knightsonas
Iron Knight: a Burly Blacksmith who hurls white hot ingots and has anvil armor
Hammer Knight: your standard hulking tough guy with a big club
and lastly Boulder Knight: a big fat knight who has rocky armor who rolls around trying to crush you
but honestly if anything i would just reskin Baz
Finally! My team for the international challenge is ready
Oh crap guys…what if they announced a Pokémon Direct during this Direct like they did with Animal Crossing?
A teaser, logo or whatever would get me hyped so much man. I really, really want D/P remakes
The timing seems right, it really does. D/P remakes would make the world whole again. Speaking of Animal Crossing, they should probably reveal their mobile game as well…which could lead to an Animal Crossing Switch teaser…MAN I’m hyped.
dont get your hopes up too much lol
I know a lot of this is unlikely but I’m excited for Arms and Splatoon 2 as well so anything else would be extra. Also, E3 is super close.
Its possible.
i really want to play Animal Crossing
i’ve been having such a craving for a life sim for a while know
I mean, once they announce the inevitable Animal Crossing “reboot” along the lines of Breath of the Wild, it’s finished. Hundreds of hours of my life, gone. It will be an experience.
I just want the next installment, i love that feeling where you start with absolutely nothing and build from the ground up, until you find yourself spending every waking moment plaything and you close yourself off from society for the next 4-5 months until the very day you find it repetitious and lackluster
as Yahtzee Corshaw once said “don’t start playing animal crossing, animal crossing doesn’t end and cannot be won, at some point you’re gonna get bored or catch alzheimer’s or get trapped in a house fire”
Play Sims then :p
the sims is fun
i honestly never got into the sims it just didn’t……imprint on me,
Its more fun with the porn mods installed
That’d be pretty great lol Altho I wouldn’t get my hopes up. All I’m expecting is some more minor details on Splat2n and Arms as well as their release dates. We might get some in on smaller games for the 3DS, but this is certainly going to be mostly Splat2 and Arms
well we just got our first direct leak it seems
https://i.redditmedia.com/og-BPNbJX7sf983Pt09hLzy8rOTsPG7yXGEmnN1HA6c.jpg?w=896&s=57c68fd2cbd16d5b68a52b81c20681a6
can’t say I’m surprised. It was only a matter of time before they were gonna start doing bundles
Splatoon Green/Purple joy cons please
That would be a amazing!! hahahaha
they should just make a line of removable and easy to apply stickers for joycons, but me i’ve never been one for flashy controllers
yea but the texture of the joycons can’t handle stickers
Very smart move, a bundle just a month after the console comes out. They’re going full force.
theres also one for the Neon. This could easily be announced during the direct
Lmao and I just preordered a Switch ffs just my luck
Nintendo why
because they hate us
I just bought my freaking Switch lol. I would’ve gotten this
I literally preordered mine last week lool. This sorta shit always happens to me
I mean……now that you have it all you have to do is buy the game…..no biggie right? It’s not like there’s anything different about the Switch’s in the box compared to the one you have.
Yeah true
They hate us because they aint us
Y’all getting hyped for today’s Direct when I’m here waiting for the next D23 expo in July, hoping for new KH3 news loool
I can’t wait for KH3 I really need to beat Dream Drop Distance. I always do this. I get all the way up to the end of a KH game and then stop for a long time only to beat it at another time lol
DDD is soo good on PS4 (if you have 2.8) with the full HD and 60 fps
I have it on the 3DS. I was thinking about getting the 2.8 versions, but honestly I’m not sure I’d want to play through the WHOLE thing again. Not that it was bad, but I just don’t think I’ll finish it a second time around…..I haven’t even finished it on my first play hahaha
The PS4 version is remastered and has new Dream Eaters as well. Its definitely worth the buy, also KH 0.2 and Back Cover are sooo good
I’ll have to think about it. Maybe when I my B day comes around. I already have so many games that I need to beat/buy. Still gotta pick up my copy of Persona 5 lol
And as a KH fan since pretty much forever, waiting since 2006 on KH3 has been messing with my mental state lol
Square Enix really knows how to keep their fans waiting. lol
Yep I remember when it was initially planned for PS3 in 2009, then they canceled that because Nomura was too busy working on FFXV and KH spin-offs like 358/2 Days
Yeah they take forever to finish games……..Ah now that you got me thinking about it again FFXV was such a a great game. It may have had a flaw here and there, but the whole thing was just awesome hahaha
Oh I’m excited for that as well. I’m looking forward to Pixar unveiling some new projects.
e3 2017
Smash bros for Switch (port)
Mario kart 8 deluxe DLC
Pokemon Dash 2
Animal Crossing
Zelda Maker
Trust me I know a guy
Lame
also i forgot
Kingdom heart 3 confirmed for the switch
Nice joke but the Switch cant run Unreal 4
yes it can?
Since when? It runs on outdated tech compared to PS4/X1 lol
https://twitter.com/UnrealEngine/status/789201443731288066
unless this means something else
Loooool gg Switch, imagine playing Unreal 4 games on 10 fps. Switch will explode
The Switch isn’t that outdated fam
I heard its like a bit lower then the Xbox one
Not that outdated but its hardware is of lesser quality than PS4/X1. Not a bad thing because it has plenty of potential to challenge those in terms of longevity & games
Honestly before we bash Nintendo Switch, can we wait a few more months to see what it can actually do
Not bashing the Switch, its a solid console but it doesn’t have better tech than the other two consoles and therefore also not capable of running games with a similar engine as smoothly
who knows tho! Maybe it can run kingdom hearts lol
Yes but they’d have to downgrade the engine for the Switch. I could see KH games on the Switch but knowing SE they will release the 1.5+2.5 bundle first to see if it has any animo. They’re not going to release KH3 on the Switch lol
the switch can run the dark souls trilogy i heard
Dark Souls runs on the same engine as Bloodborne, not the same quality as Unreal 4. Still, I’d welcome games of that calibre on the Switch though
Outdated tech for a pure home console, don’t see people taking their PS4 or Xbox around with them.
Still weary if it can run it tho, its weaker than the other home consoles but I wouldn’t call it outdated in comparison to them considering its a whole different ball park
I’ll be able to get home about 30 minutes before the Direct starts. Score! Looking forward to enjoying it with you all.
IM AT WORK. DONT REMIND ME
Seeing YouTube comments like “Breath of the Wild is overrated” is physically hurting me
So is my phones broken freaking autocorrect
Better then Breast of the wild
Breat of the Wild is overrated, Breath of the Wild is far better than it
;_;
Nah but like seriously. Why can’t we just enjoy a game without saying it’s overrated or something like that.
Overrated is also the least thoughtful and unhelpful thing you can say about a game
I think it’s a fair opinion to have a about a game or series that’s been out for a while but to say it about a game that literally just came out not too long ago
BotW ain’t overrated at all. A game like Watch Dogs 2 is overrated
Some people said Sun/Moon was overrated
Also not true but you could argue it was a bit underwhelming considering the hype they created after the initial announcement. Still very good games, actually in my top 5 Pkmn games oat but it could have been better if they added proper post-game content and maybe 10-20 more Mons
Many people (including me) think It’s the best pokemon game
It’s my third favorite but it’s VERY close
My top 5
1 – HGSS
2 – B/W+BW2
3: Emerald
4: SuMo
5: FRLG
If a game exists and it’s popular, someone will call it overrated. There are no exceptions
It drives me crazy. From what I’ve played, BotW is nearly perfect other then maybe some weapon durability
Underrated babs

Just realised that the Direct starts at midnight where I live. And it’ll probably be few hours long. But at least I don’t have school tommorow.
It’ll be eleven for me but I’m in school holidays

If a Pokemon game is announced, would you guys rather have:
An Alola sequel?
An Alola third version?
Or
A Sinnoh remake?
Sinnoh Sinnoh Sinnoh Sinnoh
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qSHI0dauxYQ
gimme the sequels 😉
Just noticed the spear pillar theme is in this theme
I saw an idea on Bulbagarden being tossed around about a Kanto/Johto sequel in the style of FE Fates. In one game you start in Kanto and in the other Johto. I’d be pretty down with that hahaha
If I see Kanto again I think I’m going go scream tbh
Ok ok here me out. I think people are more sick of the idea of Kanto than Kanto itself. Sure a fresh new game featuring one of the other regions would be amazing, but think about how cool Kanto and Johto would look in the SM engine. They’d need to spiff them up a bit and add new areas, but if that happened and they made the regions less empty then it would totes amaze balls lol
Nah I just hate Kanto as a region
I think the Pokemon are bland, the characters are bland, the region itself is bland, and I’d rather see Johto with better pacing and level curving then Kanto for the fifth time
But that’s what they would do in a sequel to make it better. they’d need to flesh it out anyway to fit the engine by adding new areas and making the old ones look more filled and less empty. As for the characters, if it’s a sequel the you’d get both new and old ones. They’ve obviously come a long way in terms of character design so even if old characters do show up they could be much more lively. Well anyway…..The idea I saw featured both Kanto and Johto so even if it was real you could still just play the Johto version hahaha
Johto is the Kanto sequel though
Yeah but this would be a sequel to…….A sequel lol
We don’t need anymore Kanto
Except Kanto is too easy nostalgia bait so they’d probably keep everything as close as possible to the originals, and I’d rather see another region developed then Kanto for the fifth time in the franchise 😡
I just think that other regions need it more because Kanto receives so much attention already 😡
I’m ok with the 3 of them, I just want a Pkm game
