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

Having just rolled the (first) credits in Pikmin 2, all I care about is Pikmin 4 news rn

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?

Metroid Prime 4 has been available for pre-order from Best Buy for years. Mine will be discounted because I pre-ordered it back when Gamers Club still existed lol. Still, I hope that we see SOMETHING for it.

Note: Nintendo's website mometarily had a pre-order for Tears of the Kingdom up and listed for $69.99 before it was taken down. Whether that was a complete mistake, an actual price increase they weren't ready to announce, or something in between like a digital deluxe edition is still uncertain, but I think online stores are panicking as a result and closing preorders of Nintendo games until they know what's up.

Yep, I preordered mine (checks the email) October 2018. Also @WildcatJF I've had at least one other preorder take so long the card I originally used expired and when I updated it they refused to honor Gamers Club pricing anymore.

I am shocked that I did a quick search for anyone mentioning a Mother/Earthbound release in the last few posts, and saw nothing. Have we fallen so far that we no longer predict an "instant" Mother 3 drop? After all this time, have we become so jaded that we do not have expectations of entering the Kingdom of Heaven/New Pork City? I weep for our children, and our children's children, all of whom will never know the sweet sting of hoping to see Lucas again, and then watching those wishes dashed against the rigid rocks of reality.

Oh man, is Tiny Cartridge still going? I can;t remember why I stopped checking them. I gotta add them back into my favorites.

I follow the RSS feed and posts are at least a month apart and often about games that came out a while ago, but it's still going. But I just checked and my feed doesn't have the post above, so might have moved to Twitter or something.

An obvious thing I want that I feel dumb for not thinking of last night:

A Fire Emblem Path of Radiance/Radiant Dawn release. I'll take a remaster if that's all I can get, but am a little wary of reworked writing and characterization not being as good as the original.

I kinda hope they don't even acknowledge the Zelda coming out in May.

Just, really twist the knife.

[trailer starts with a black void]

[stars and nebulae slowly come into view]

[the silhouette of a logo can be seen in the center of the screen]

[a deep, alien-sounding bass synth starts droning]

[the number 4 moves into place an slots itself in the logo]

[the first notes of the metroid theme start playing]

[the words "Metroid Prime 4" slowly fade into view]

[as that happens, a number 2 slots itself into the bottom of the logo]

[the subtitle "Federation Force 2" appears, with a loud horn blaring or something]

[pause for a beat]

[indistinct piano music starts playing]

[triangles converge to the center of the screen]

[a bright flash of light]

[the full title is revealed as "The Legend of Zelda: Metroid Prime 4: Federation Force 2: Tears of the KingdoM"]

[the piano music coalesces into something familiar]

[below the logo this statement appears: "Delayed until September 8, 2023 to commemorate the first anniversary of the passing of her majesty Queen Elizabeth II"]

[God Save the Queen plays solemnly against the still image of the logo for the remaining 35 seconds of the trailer]

I will never understand the deep love this forum has long expressed for Etrian Odyssey.

Fuck Etrian Odyssey.

It's just a dungeon crawler for perverts.

It is deeply hilarious that a Nintendo direct is the thing that utterly crushed post-elon twitter.
