Nintendo as always will air a direct at E3 and a two hour Treehouse Presentation directly after. The direct will be roughly 40 minutes of new and upcoming Switch titles, which Nitendo has claimed that "most of the titles shown during the direct will be available by the end of 2021"

Bandai Namco also has a stream planned at some point in the day but no schedule has been given yet.

RUMORS:

* More Zelda anniversary reveals will happen at E3 or there will be an anniversary centric direct shortly after Skyward Sword HD launches. Just don't expect breath of the wild 2

* A new Dragon's Dogma is apparently in development at Capcom

* Team Ninja and Squarenix are going to reveal a "Souls/Nioh" like Final Fantasy Action Game called "Final Fantasy Origins". Not much is known except developers involved and that it will somehow directly tie into the original Final Fantasy

* A huge I doubt it but I've read on several forums that NetherRealm studio's big new fighting game they're working on is Avengers vs. X-Men.

* Nintendo Switch's next step (Also See: Switch Pro) will be revealed at E3 with a holiday release.

I want to protests, Sonic Human should not give the shield to Stewart. 😜
Sonic Human was entrusted that shield by Steve Rodgers for him to become the next Capt Video Games.

Na, I am kidding. I think Stu would do a good job. 👍

I need see how Stewart handles getting spit in the face while raiding another person's place of business on foreign soil before I make my decision on if he is capable.

As long as Stuart doesn't do something incredibly brash in front of ALL THE CAMERAS then I think he's fine. Unfortunately I have a lil gremlin to contend with so I'm still being held back at the moment. Stuart did a wonderful job and I actually did approach him to do it this year. If he declined I was going to attempt to do it this year. I'm still going to be doing my normal stuff and I will be supporting this thread like I always do!
