Two days ago we got the big news that we are not getting one direct, but we are getting two directs. Tuesday is the Legend of Zelda 40th anniversary direct and Wednesday is the general direct. I can’t remember the last time that Nintendo announce a direct this early. In my last blog I said that my state of play highlights would be my next blog. Then this news came out. Well screw that! That blog can wait. This is way more important. Now the fun part I will prediction what we will see in the two shows. Buckle up this will be a long one my friends.
The Legend of Zelda direct
Since the Zelda direct will come out first, I will start here.
We will see mech like toys and colthes.
News about the theme park.
It have leaked but we will get to officially see the Legend of Zelda switch 2 edition.
An old classic Zelda game will be announced. I guess it will be Twilight princess, but it will only be available on the NSO. The game being on physical? That ship has long sailed. They won’t said it but Nintendo wants to go all digital as well.
we will get news about the upcoming movie. We will get the first trailer? I don’t know. The movie doesn’t come out till April 30, 2027. That is eight months away. It might be too soon to show it. So I am 50/50 on it. I 100% think that we will get the rest of the cast revealed.
I believe that will we get Zelda 40th anniversary amiibos
Oranica of time remake
Now of the heart of this direct. We will finally get gameplay. I do think that Link we get new abilities and skills. I also think that Link will get new weapons as well. This will not be an one for one copy of the original classic. I believe that they we be new villages, side missions, new allies, new enemies, and most important we will get one of two new dungeons. Hopefully we will get the light dungeon that was going to be in the original, but it wasn’t because of the low memory of the N64.
For the last big thing, I really believe that Nintendo will give us a sneak peek of the next mainline Zelda game.
General direct
For the general direct which is on the following day. I will start will the 3rd party games that I think we show up. Then I will predict what will Nintendo have in store of us of the rest of the year and into next year.
Third partys
With the direct being announced early like I already said, this direct have to be huge. I will go studio by studio. I will rank by highly likely, 50/50, or longshot like I did before.
