Golden Axe II is a game that exists. It doesn't really do anything new except a few control tweaks. It's incredibly easy, even on the highest difficulty. But the brain dead AI of the enemies is actually what makes it very fun. There are levels where you can get away with barely attacking, just baiting enemies to run and fling themselves off cliffs. Something about juggling enemies on both ends of the screen with Gilius' headbutt is just very satisfying.

Gang, hear me out. I think we might hear more about Tears of the Kngdom this time.

The Metroid Prime remake rumors end up being half true, and Metroid Prime 4 ends up being a reboot/re-imagining of the Prime sub-series.

A suprise new wave of Smash DLC is announced, the 1st new character is... Alear from Fire Emblem Engage! The internet loses it shit.

A whole separate follow-up Direct for Tears of the Kingdom, or else just an enigmatic trailer.

A prominent segment about the Super Mario Bros movie.

Advance Wars release date announced.

Kirby and Octopath covered.

A new announcement of something not yet heard of.

Nothing about Metroid.

I predict interstitial bumpers for:
  • Fire Emblem Engage is out now, and here's what will be in part 2 of the DLC...
    • I think it's supposed to be two or three additional Emblem rings? Maybe Seliph and Hector?
  • Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Booster Course Pack Wave 4 has the following tracks to look forward to...
    • Wario Stadium from N64? Wuhu Loop or Maka Wuhu from 3DS? Certainly one or two more Tour courses, one of them new.
  • Splatoon 3's new season is coming next month...
    • previewing new weapons, stages, and a new Salmon Run boss to coincide with the next Big Run?
    • (notably, predicting no announcement of the paid DLC yet)

Surprise drop - Metroid Prime 4 is actually done and will be released after the direct. It's now a dice rolling/board game style multiplayer party game.

I do not expect a release of a Rogue Squadron trilogy remaster.

But I DO wish to have one.

Also Star Fox, why not

That information has already been data mined, so you may wish to adjust your prediction.

Hey, don't just douse my fun right off the bat like that! In any case, it's a no-stakes prediction and I don't mind just throwing out guesses without much research outside of understanding what's officially been announced. I still think there's a chance that there'll be some mention of Engage in the Direct, at the very least, even if the specifics of what is shown is different. There's a lot of Fire Emblem characters to choose from, after all. Though all told, my predictions are pretty mild. Points for participation, at least?

My predictions:

Vampire Survivors and its DLC are on Switch right-the-heck now!

Showcase of the next Mario Kart 8 Deluxe courses!

First peek at the first of the upcoming free Sonic Frontiers DLC!

Some unannounced Square Enix remaster!

New Splatoon 3 mode(s)!

A brief "Hey this still exists" video for the new Zelda!

More Cloud games to yell at!

Things I'm pretty confident in:
Mario Rabbids 2 DLC update/release date
Octopath II update
FE Engage DLC talk
Mario movie stuff, maybe there's a game tied to it?
Splatoon 3 DLC/update involving Marina and Pearl

Things that seem possible:
FE Genealogy of the Holy war or Thracia 776 remaster in English
Some new mobile game I'll be vaguely curious about, play for an hour then uninstall
Vague Breath of the Wild 2 Update

Probably not but I'd be happy:
Ring Fit 2
New Switch Sports Sport
Detailed Breath of the Wild 2 Update

Apparently, Metroid Prime 4 has a pre-order listing at Best Buy, and it had one at Amazon but that one was taken down. Maybe we'll get some info? Release date?
