Hopefully we'll get GBA on Wii U/3DS, cross buy on Virtual Console games, Dragon Quest 7 for Summer and Monster Hunter 4 for fall.

Realistically: Zelda Wii U trailer, X release date for next week.
 
So discussion of everything we already know about, announcement of whatever the next incremental step towards an account system will be (and it will be such a tiny step that we will be bewildered that it was possible to isolate it from anything else) , something vc release related, a date for mario kart, a smash character, and at least one new game announcement. Maybe some localizations for na.
 
Done earlier than expected by about a month. Emergency Nintendo Direct?

So probable:

Donkey Kong Country Returns: Tropical Freeze
Kirby Triple Deluxe

what else has already been announced for a Q1 release?

Hoping for a comprehensive multi-device, multi-platform account system like PSN that let's me re-download my purchases as needed.

That PS3 to PS4 games transfer went so smoothly for me. I just hated the wait when I had to download GTAV to my PS4.
 
Iwata comes out wearing Majora's Mask.


"This is a new item for Club Nintendo members and will cost 1500 Coins. We have no information on any sort of Majora's Mask remake at this time. Please understand."

Sounds like something they would do. Nintendo are some of the biggest trolls in the industry.

Did not say multi-generation.

Wouldn't it be awesome to buy "A link to the past" in VC and it being cross buy on WiiU and 3DS.

I'm still buying the games, just wishing for something better.

Reggie comes out in a Captain Falcon costume, Miyamoto wears Majora's Mask and Iwata is in a Power Suit. They then proceed to do the entire presentation without mentioning any of these games.

I would die inside. Just spent 70% of my coins for the 3 Zelda posters, which are beautiful though.

This is the likely content. That plus "Please Understand"

I think if there was going to be "please understands" (like Mario Kart being delayed), they'd wait until the holiday buying period.

I expect some DK:TF footage, Mario Kart (announced for April), and Wii Sports Golf which can be downloaded as soon as the Direct ends. Maybe lessons for Art Academy will finally pop up, as well as some talk about Miiverse on 3DS. On the 3DS side I haven't been keeping up as well, I know they've got Kirby to show off but what else?

If this only goes through Spring, we may not even get new announcements (though technically Nintendo could do whatever they want and still show stuff a ways off). Maybe they'll do some indie game plugs too, since I'm pretty sure a lot are due Q1 and Q2.

Of course, I'd love to see Wii U F-Zero, Metroid, or Star Fox, or a mature (non-mascot) action/adventure ala Naughty Dog from Retro. And a complete VC reboot with cross play for NES/SNES/GBA along with a bunch of Sega support being added would make my day. Or deal with 2K Sports to get some sports content on the U, a middle finger of sorts to EA.

I'm betting more HD ports like Super Mario Sunshine HD & Luigi's Mansion HD. Remember, we had that one retailer listing although grain of salt with that one.

Pokken Fighters or a Pokémon Wii U RPG ala Colosseum/XD BELIEVE

The Nintendo Direct starts. A boisterous party is going on all around. There's Shiggy taking shots. There's Reggie doing a keg stand. And here comes a man in a giant Donkey Kong costume. He takes off his head, and... it's Iwata!

"You may be wondering why we are having such a party. Please understand... it is time to open the orange port."
