The first big Nintendo Direct is claimed to be happening next week, potentially on February 5th. Assuming it does end up happening, what are you hoping to see announced?

I continue to think that we HAVE to be getting a new 3D Mario game soon. It has been almost nine years since Super Mario Odyssey. Even if it's not announced at this Direct, I have a hard time believing that it won't be unveiled at some point this year.

Yeah, a new Mario game, especially with the new movie coming out, would SEEM like an easy win, but this is also Nintendo we're talking about.

I would say a new Animal Crossing, but with that big update they randomly dropped for New Horizons, I suspect that might still be a little ways off. But maybe at least a teaser confirming it's happening?

New Mario game, New Mario collection and Switch version of 3DS Luigi’s mansion.

Sounds like we're getting a Partner Direct, which means only third-party games. If that's the case, I'm definitely intrigued to see more of The Duskbloods. The format looks odd but I trust FromSoftware with my life.

I’d like to see the new Digimon game on switch 2

I'm always going to hope for a new smash bros regardless of how real of a chance it could have

I was pleaseantly surprising by how fun Elden Ring: Nightreign is, so I'm quite excited about Duskbloods. That said, I really hope we get some 3D Mario news soon...

I am once again manifesting an actual release date for Witchbrook.

This actually feels really plausible. I don't think it can be that far away from its release.
