What are we feeling for the Direct tomorrow boys?
I think OoT remake is a given but I also think they'll announce a new Zelda game. With the movie coming in hot next year they'll probably want to capitalize on that as much as possible. It could also be the WWHD/TPHD ports but I think something original would be apt so it isn't so heavy on remakes/remasters.
I think they'll talk a bit more about Star Fox as well. Maybe some Mario Kart updates and perhaps even what is next for Smash Bros.

>I think OoT remake is a given
I hope not. Both OOT and SF64 already have 3DS remakes that can easily be ported over (albeit without the 2nd screen or stereoscopic 3D of course).
>perhaps even what is next for Smash Bros.
I think that's way too early, I think Sakurai needs to find a way to move Smash in a different direction since topping Ultimate is out of the question. I think they'll pull a Mario Kart Word and change the gameplay (maybe having the stages be fully 3D planes), but I bet it's still in the planning stages given that Air Riders was only released last year.
@xianc78 the smash bros development cycle is actually surprisingly short, but a lot of it does rely on reused stuff. Though, I don't think we are getting a brand new one just yet. I don't know what's going to happen but Nintendo does know that smash is one of their biggest console sellers. I feel like something smash related is right around the corner. Every console since 64 has had a smash game and they usually come out within 2 years of the launch of the console. Switch 2 has been out for a year already. So, you know. I feel like it's close.
Star Fox 64 and Ocarina of Time have enhanced ports on the 3DS. They're literally the same code (obviously patched up) but with new assets. I wish they brought them over to the Switch much earlier. That's kind of too late now, I think. Ocarina of Time is a remake people have clamored for almost as much as FF7. I think it deserves one and could benefit greatly from it. It could also be completely fucked, but I'm trying not to put that energy out into the world and I generally trust Nintendo to do a good job.
@beardalaxy @xianc78
The Smash bross is facing the same size creep as X games.
You can not just release a sequel until the old game is completely burned out. You can not just add more game anymore, since the old game had reached that size.
@LukeAlmighty @xianc78 yeah it's quite the conundrum and i can see it going several different ways. i don't know what they're going to do but i'm pretty sure they're going to do something and we'll know about it soon.
