I’m sorry.

I think these have gotten to the point where I have almost no interest watching live, nor do I anticipate anything in particular. I think I’m more excited about this thread than I am the event or anything in it.

Just putting this here for when it goes live: https://2026.gamesrecap.io/

The spirits are telling me…

  • GTA6 gets a Release Date
  • we finally get a new MS console: it is called “XBOX TOO”
  • the PS5 Pro™ will get a new extension: a USB 3.1-connectable Laserdisc Player
  • SEGA teases a new Crossover Franchise, Shen Mew (and a sequel - Shen Mew Two :smirking_face: )
  • Square announces FF15 remake
  • Natsume gets the Football/Soccer license for the next four worldcups, and doesn’t know what to do with it.

…. :tarothink:

I wonder if the ‘Kiss of Geoff’ will be given to a sacrificial game from now on. It is placed upon the altar of hype so that other games may not die within a month of launch.

Nintendo fans will spend then next month perform auguries and haruspices to determine the date of the next “general direct.” A week after Star Fox comes out, they will announce a Partner Showcase or Indie World presentation with only 48 hours of notice. A couple of the games will look like the sickest stuff you’ve ever seen, but you wouldn’t know from talking with a Nintendo fan because they’ll be disappointed that the rumored Gyromite reboot from Ubisoft wasn’t announced there.

Two weeks later, Nintendo will announce a “Metroid Direct” with less than a hour of notice. Yoshio Sakamoto will appear, and state that the last thing he wants before retiring is to have his successors at EPD7 release “Super Metroid Pixel Remaster.” Fans will not shut up about the 2 second clip that appears to show Samus shortcharging.

Geoff is gonna tear up on stage and talk about how four weeks ago he was invited to be the first to have hands on with a dormant franchise that’s gearing up for a revival, and how he’s honored to introduce it for the first time on stage, and it’s just a Lester the Unlikely remake.
