-Iwata memorial, introduce new temporary presenter. -At least one Smash newcomer shown. My money's on Wolf. -Pokemon Z -At least one uninteresting-looking game that has way too much time devoted to it -Splatoon update. New stage, new weapons, playable Octolings -More amiibo. More exclusive amiibo. More inevitable amiibo shortages. -Mario Tennis footage. Disappointing -Animal Crossing footage. Disappointing -Xenoblade X launch plans/footage -An update on The Legend of Zelda Wii U. Jaws will drop!
Roll credits. General consensus will be mostly positive, albeit not blown away.
I think they should start with the Iwata tribute, if they're doing it. It would be nice to end with it, too, but I'd say get it up front where it belongs.
I'll be happy with an announcement that Picross 3D 2 will be coming over to the west. Other than that, I have no expectations. Nice to have the Nintendo Directs back again.
I'm not expecting much from the Direct, but I totally agree there. The Picross e games have gotten a bit stale. I'd love to play 3D 2 this year.
Picross 3D is the only Picross game I've ever played actually. Digital crack on a cartridge. It should come with a warning label. I've probably put 200 hours into the DS game. I'll be a happy gamer when #2 lands on the eShop.
Oh man! You're missing out. Picross DS is the best. It's like the 3D one, but with a manageable amount of dimensions. (I didn't like the 3D aspect of the 3D one.) Seriously, I restarted Picross DS at LEAST five times, straight through.
