Nice. I was expecting to see one soon so this will do nicely. I've been wanting some more info on ARMS as it looks great fun.

Beyond the launch details of Splatoon 2 and ARMS I'd like to hear something about VC on this. That and some Zelda DLC maybe.

Delays Direct.

Wouldn't expect anything on Zelda, they'll save that for E3 surely when we can expect to hear why Mario won't make 2017

I've not heard rumours of any delays, teb? Kart 8 Deluxe is being advertised as launching at the end of this month, whilst I don't think dates have advised for Splatoon 2 or Mario (beyond "summer" and "winter").

Arms is Spring, Splatoon Summer, Mario 2017.

Arms I expect will slip as we've not heard anything about it since January. Splatoon should be ok as it doesn't seem a particularly revolutionary sequel and I'd be very surprised if Mario makes 2017.

I like how delays to Zelda automatically means every subsequent Nintendo game will be delayed also because ???

Looking forward to seeing more of ARMS especially single player content. Also hoping to see Super Bomberman R DLC details and maybe some hints towards VC

If they announce the VC lineup are they also going to announce a double discount for all the games you bought on Wii and then bought again on Wii U?

In addition to the games that have been mentioned, I'm looking forward to seeing more of Fire Emblem Heroes :toot:

Info on Arms single player, other characters and also a release date would be nice. Hopefully a firm release date on Splatoon 2 as well.

I doubt we'll see or hear about anything else major though, think they'll hold off VC announcements until E3.

That's bound to be a big focus, as the huge update is coming tomorrow (game down for maintenance tomorrow as well). FE Echoes is out next month too, so probably a decent chunk of the direct to focus on them :toot: . Can't think of much else coming for the 3DS section though

I'd guess with MK and Splatoon coming soon we might get some details about the online service

I'm excited :toot:

Edit- I bought Pokemon Sun at the weekend so expect Stars to be announced too

Reggie has stated before that they have the systems in place to do the discount (NNID/Nintendo Account), but couldn't share specifics. I assume there will be some sort of discount whenever the games do launch

Interested in what they have to show, but no real interest in ARMS or Splatoon 2 from me.

Very excited for this. Really looking forward to hearing more on Splatoon 2's single player campaign. I never played the original, but have been watching YouTube videos and the original campaign looked like a lot of fun. Hopefully one or two surprises. I'd love Luigi's Mansion 3, but can't imagine we'd hear anything about that until after Odyssey. I wonder if we'll see anything at all on Odyssey. I'm far too excited, I absolutely love my Switch. :wub: The 11pm time is perfect for me too.

I liked the look of ARMS when it was first shown, so looking forward to seeing more from the title. Cheekily hoping for another free weekend of Splatoon 2. :shifty:

There will hopefully be a surprise or two.

ARMS was damn good fun to play so I'm really interested to see more.
