New February Nintendo Direct Announced Predictions & Zelda Tears of the Kingdom Rumors & Leaks

[@zopplo8300]

I think link dies and wario takes links place becoming the champion of hyrule, and saves Zelda and beat ganondorf

[@nekolu]

Wario will become the new champion of hyrule and beat ganondorf, but he will not save Zelda. She doesn’t deserve a hero like wario. Waluigi needs to be saved

[@ravenebony2267]

Then Wario loots Zelda's castle

[@AnAmericanMusician]

Still more believable than half of the current totk theories out there.

[@canonbro990]

100% gonna reveal some TOTK merchandise. it's about that time

[@julien6871]

100% gonna be a 3 minute trailer for the game and other trailers😈

[@Drew.Mellow]

I just hope to see more about the story and gameplay of TOTK. Also, it would be amazing if they announced a wave of LEGO Zelda sets to be released along with TOTK. I doubt it will happen, but I can always hope.

[@seanlotr]

I would love to see a twilight princess and wind waker remake on switch as well as tears of the kingdom

[@canonbro990]

In botw the hylians discovered the guardians & divine beast from digging them up. Imagine what will be discovered in TOTK after alot more soil is exposed😳.. Definitely gonna show off some of those secrets this Direct

[@AnAmericanMusician]

The islands don't come from Hyrule. They're separate.

[@cairoleblanc200]

@@AnAmericanMusicianhave you not seen the castle detaching and floating?

[@jasonmg99]

I think tears of the kingdom will be the main focus and take up about 12 minutes of it, but I think most importantly is to get new information on Pikmin 4's release as well as other releases for late 2023 and through 2024. I think for tears are the kingdom we should have a big trailer showcasing answers to the big questions that we have whether there is underwater exploration, whether there is dungeons, new enemies, and whether or not there is an existence of large vast underground areas (which could be the dungeons)

[@0perativeX]

The 40 minute February Nintendo Direct will go like this: 38 mins of chibi weeb indie games + 1 minute of TotK footage + 1 minute of Pikmin 4

[@AnAmericanMusician]

You forgot about the 17 farm games.

[@rasul01]

@@AnAmericanMusician Those would fall within the chino-styled weeb games.

[@rubberduck-1]

Remember at E3 2016 when Nintendo Treehouse showed off HOURS of gameplay for Breath of the Wild. Yeah, that was nice. Here’s hoping we get a new trailer for Tears of the Kingdom that’s at least a minute and a half long, to add to the other four minutes worth of what we’ve gotten.

[@freckitt2305]

Perhaps the tear Midna shed at the closing of The Twilight Princess, the Mirror's reappearance in Breath of the Wild, and the mysterious figure paired with Zelda have more to do with The Tears of the Kingdom than we could imagine

[@xrissilvuh8478]

After watching the original announcement and then this back to back. Sounds confirm Twilight realm in my opinion. I also believe there will be a sense of time travel between Present link and link that fought ganondorf pre BOTW. Also are they having Sky/land/subterranean play? It seems like it.

[@mattfry6716]

I can see a couple of indie announcements, upcoming games, a trailer for TotK and Pikmin 4.

[@temp___]

Advance Wars 1 & 2 release date was still listed as TBA in Nintendo's 9 month earnings release today

[@a.jthomas6132]

An exclusive footage of Super Mario Bros Movie would be a great way to included in Nintendo Direct.

[@Anonymimus]

I think, we'll finally get proper gameplay of TotK like... with GUI and all of that. Showing Link's basic abilities, mid-air combat and such. Maybe, we'll also get a teaser at MK8D DLC Wave 4. Possibly GB/GBC for Switch Online will be announced, but not sure how likely that is. What I'd wish to be shown but I'm 100% certain none of that will happen: Prime 4, new DK or DKC Trilogy remaster, F-Zero NX or F-Zero GX remaster.

[@franknbeans8904]

I'm hoping that during this Direct they announce that they will be porting more older Zelda games to the Switch. I've played Ocarina, Twilight Princess and Wind Waker, however Minish Cap and others that don't get the same amount of attention as these 3D games are largely inaccessible to those that don't have (or no longer have) the old consoles or internet, it would be great to play these old games, and even introduce them to younger players.

[@AnAmericanMusician]

So long as I get a solid gameplay trailer for TotK and Pikmin 4, I'll be happy. Those are my 2 most hyped games of the year.

[@closedchill5243]

Good TotK prediction. I would add limited edition TotK Switch and season pass news too. TotK, being a late gen sequel, is in a weird place where it feels like a lot of people are buying it already. Its not part of a major hardware push. Arguably, they could go quite minimalist on the marketing while still getting the same sales. Will be interesting to see how much they decide to show.

[@keo528528]

I'm still holding out hope for Donkey Kong 64 on the online service.

[@HieiZx]

I hope we finally get the zelda ports we been asking for long time 😭😭😭

[@cripheponine]

My predictions : They begin with TotK. They show a fourth Switch model (not a Switch 2) for may 12. They finish with Metroid Prime 4.

[@a.jthomas6132]

What I want for the next Tears of the Kingdom trailer is a glimpse of the story. Link + Zelda’s relationship, Zelda’s fate and her character arc to being a strong/confident person rather than being a damsel of distress, returning characters (like Paya, Robbie, Purah,Kass, Sidon, Yunobo, Teba and Riju), Yiga Clan vs Shekiah Tribe, unlocking the secrets of the Zonai tribe, the Successors of the Champions fight along side Link, some Skyward Sword reference, Demise’s Curse, the Triforce, and the return of Ganondorf. Those are the things I wanted to see tomorrow!

[@Drew.Mellow]

Don't forget the original champions. We need to see a full reunion for Mipha and Sidon!

[@BRN2BNDAIR]

BRO NEW ZELDA DIRECT ARE YOU MAKING A VIDEO????

[@artisanjames182]

it's going to be a DLC direct... Xenoblade 3 dlc, Splatoon 3 dlc, Fire Emblem dlc, Mariokart 8 booster dlc... all of that is going to eat up a lot of time... + trailers to a kirby remake, a Bayonetta prequel, Advance Wars Reboot Camp, Pikmin 4, potentially another brief teaser to Zelda TOTK with the announcement of a Zelda specified direct at a later date and maybe a new Mario baseball game... that's all folks... no new Mario, no Metroid, no F-Zero, no DK... stop getting your hopes up...

[@Moshugaani]

I wonder if they'll do a bit more in-depth look on Tears of the Kingdom with some gameplay and explanations about the changes compared to BotW. But I would be happy with a similar level trailer like we got for BotW in E3 2016 and at the Switch reveal event. The E3 2016 trailer focused on gameplay and the world but presented it cinematically, and the Switch reveal event trailer focused on the story. I think they might do a similar duo of trailers for this game. The gameplay overview trailer in this Direct, and then a story trailer closer to launch.

[@kaiserstiglitz6735]

Hoping for a new Zelda themed Switch/Switch Lite👍🇮🇪

[@KEP1983]

I'm hoping for a big 3d Mario. Something with an open world like botw or Bowser's fury.

[@dragonchi26]

When you were talking about Xenoblade 3, you showed footage of Xenoblade 2. Was that an oversight?

[@sempercompellis]

the puckish side of me wants Aonuma to come out at the end and say something along the lines of "we are working diligently on the follow up to BOTW , Tears of the Kingdom; unfortunatley we will not be showing you anthing today but have a special preview of the game scheduled March 21st- be sure to tune in; thank you very much " just to see everyone loose their collective minds-lol

[@AnAmericanMusician]

I'd be pissed. At this point just give us a real gameplay trailer and a solo direct on May 1st.

[@trinity31409]

Likely a decent size trailer and a please watch for more information as the release date approaches. Editing to add recognition for using the word "puckish." I don"t see it used much at all and appreciate it. Shakespeare added so much to language.

[@VSMOKE1]

I hope we get a Super Mario Galaxy 3 yeah right huh

[@VSMOKE1]

@@Wario1382 ew no?.. lmao 🤣

[@drtremor]

I’m predicting the return of an old IP. Kid Icarus, Donkey Kong, or Dragon Quest. (Or maybe that’s just what I WANT to see lol). Obviously Mario movie news, and a new Mario game. Maybe Odyssey 2 or whatever it will be called, but it will only be a teaser though. And then something bigger at E3. I don’t think there will be anything Metroid, sadly. I agree about Pikmin, Splatoon, and Nintendo Online. But I don’t think there will be anything about Advanced Wars. A bunch of random third party games. And of course a big Zelda trailer. Like BOTW’s big epic trailer. It will show tons of gameplay and mew areas. And have cutscenes with voice acting. And the reveal of the newest Zelda amiibo. I sadly won’t be able to watch it live because I’ll be at work.

[@josemontaya8435]

An announcement of the next console probably 😮‍💨

[@trinity31409]

Later in the year. The consensus among the people watching the situation is that the next thing will be in 2024 unless something goes wrong. If so then it will be closer to the end of 2024 or into 2025.

[@aidandsouza2005]

Thanks for the video, what are you most excited about in Tears of the kingdom Jesse? 🥰

Hyped bro. Yes TOTK will be announced! It will be most likely be last in the direct.
