 So I don't know about you, but I'm actually pretty excited for the Direct Tomorrow, right? Nintendo has a Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase happening tomorrow at 8 a.m. central time. And look, I understand that Partner Directs don't always get everyone excited. I mean, we could look at it to the last one, which had some pretty big games, like Near Replicant and others. But look, it's not about looking to the past. It's about the fact that obviously Nintendo's lineup is pretty sparse so far in 2024, at least what we know about moving forward. There's basically three games left that Nintendo previously announced for this year, and two of them don't even have release dates, and one of them's coming next month. So it's kind of interesting when I think some people are maybe not that excited for this, but I'm gonna say, look, as somebody who plays little games on all platforms and not just Nintendo games, I am very curious what Nintendo's partners are working on. And today we have actually gathered up a bunch of leaks for the Direct. And that is what I am calling this stuff because it is coming from the bird. If you guys don't know what I'm talking about, it is P.Y.O.R.O. over on Twitter. He literally has a 100% track record, and this is what he does. He leaks information about game announcements and stuff. He hasn't been involved in all the Switch2 rumor mail and any of that stuff. He's actually literally just somebody that this is it. It's what he does. And he's the one who told us the director was gonna be this week as well, and was actually correct. So look, I'm just gonna throw out there that we're calling these leaks technically if you wanna get mad, they're still rumors, but I'm not skeptical about these at all. So get mad at me if this stuff doesn't happen, I guess. But P.Y.O.R.O. knows what he's doing. So let's go do his first one because he talked about Game Freak. And you can see this right here over on his Twitter card. He said, is Game Freak a partner? And then he says, well, yes it is. And that's cool. Like, Game Freak's a partner. Are we thinking Pokemon? What are we thinking here? Well, P.Y.O.R.O. tends to like things that get the teases correct. So he teases them this way, and then people who guessed the right titles tend to get his attention. And that's where we get to go to a couple of posts here because he liked this post by Nugro Philippe saying it would be fun, but Pocket Card Jockey from Apple Arcade coming to Switch I would most like. But that wasn't the only post like that he liked because if you just liked that one, maybe it's not enough evidence. So he went ahead and liked a second post here that says Pocket Card Jockey, Quinty Central Palace, whatever the Pan Land trademark. So this is one where he liked a bunch of stuff but it specifically mentioned Pocket Card Jockey. Now look, Pocket Card Jockey is a game that originally released all the way back in 2014 for iOS and Android, was actually taken offline in 2015 and then returned again in 2016 and then an HD version of it actually launched in the last couple of years over on Apple Arcade. That's the only place you can play the HD version. So it does seem likely that Pocket Card Jockey is the game coming over that seems to be exactly what he teased but because he did also like a tweet that mentioned this other game, I wanna bring it up, PAND Land. PAND Land is that action adventure game that Game Freak teamed up with another company. All we have is this beautiful piece of art that, you know, this was not announced that long ago. So it's a fairly recent thing. We haven't seen anything about it. Maybe that game is here. I still think it's probably just Pocket Card Jockey but we'll throw it out there just because, hey, he did end up liking Mondo Omega's tweet that included this game in it. All right. So what else does Pioro have cooking? Well, quite a bit actually because he made this tweet about, well, Nintendo themselves because you know what? No one says you're a partner with Nintendo than just being Nintendo. So he put out this video and says, is Nintendo a partner? I voted yes. I had no idea what he was talking about but I figured he must be asking this question because the answer is yes. And he says sometimes Nintendo can be a partner because they love dolphins and he posts this dolphin thing here. This is actually real life dolphins. This is actually some really cool glowing footage of real life dolphins out in nature. But anyways, sometimes Nintendo can be a partner because they love dolphins and people started speculating, is this GameCube? What is this? Are we talking about, you know, other specific games out there? Things going to NSO? Well, Pioro kind of had this leaked by somebody else. There was a Chinese leaker that went ahead and said this is endless ocean. And you can see this here from my Nintendo news post here that says, Chinese leaker says Pioro's dolphin tweet is endless ocean on Switch. This person responds, I somewhat doubt it. The guy posted endless ocean on the tweet and typically if they are right, Pioro likes it. He's not wrong. And then Pioro just said that leaker is reliable. So Pioro is backing what that leaker says and saying that he actually thinks that leaker is a reliable leaker. So there you go, Pioro basically confirming it's going to be endless ocean. Which, look, endless ocean is a very, very fun franchise. It's made by a studio known as Akira, but Nintendo published it, so Nintendo owns it. The actually fun fact about this company in Akira as you're seeing some endless ocean footage here, they technically had another series that endless ocean was a spiritual successor to an ever blue that they made exclusively for PlayStation back in the day. I think on PlayStation 2. So they've actually been making these sort of oceanic games for quite some time. And you know what? We don't know if this is going to be a new one, if this is going to be an old one. Like, oh, you know, it's going to be the first or second one, endless ocean one or two. Or a collection, both. Or is it just brand new? Again, there's no specific deals given this way, just something endless ocean. And that is obviously pretty exciting indeed. Now, there are some other things as well that I find to be really exciting. This is maybe, to me, one of the games I'm really looking forward to the most from third-party partners. And that is Penny's Big Breakaway. That's because this guy said, does it have Penny's Big Breakaway release date for it, maybe? And Pioro just simply goes, yes, if you don't know, Penny's Big Breakaway is an upcoming 3D platformer that looks utterly fantastic. And really to me, harkens back to the days of the Nintendo 64 3D platformer. Honestly, I couldn't be asking for much more when it comes to just exciting things, when it comes to just what I'm interested in. So I'm really happy that he teased it. Now, another game that appears to have teased, this one's quite interesting, is Shimagami Tensei 5 Vengeance. Obviously, we know Shimagami Tensei 5 is on Nintendo Switch. And yes, it does look like that he teased it because that's exactly what this gif is from is Shimagami Tensei 5 Vengeance. It's a game that's not out yet. It says, is this guy a partner? And Pioro says, obviously, yes. Now, the interesting thing about that is we don't have to just go off Pioro for this one because as of yesterday, Shimagami Tensei 5 Vengeance has been rated in Korea. Supposedly a complete addition of the RPG. So there you go. It has been leaked already just via ratings board. So we already know that Pioro is telling the truth, highly likely telling the truth that this game is going to appear in that partner direct. So credit to him for that. Now, if you're wondering about some other games he might be teasing, these are gonna be leaks because he didn't say anything, but he didn't like these tweets and didn't respond directly. He liked a tweet that said, Unicorn Overlord demo in the showcase. He just liked this tweet from Hallow. You can go check yourself, we'll link to his likes. That's very fascinating to me. Unicorn Overlord is that game, that HD2D RPG style game that just looked really amazing in a prior director. Just had this really funky name. What the hell is Unicorn Overlord? And then we learned a bit more about it and understand the importance of the Unicorn stuff. And honestly, it's really fantastic looking. And I, you know what? This is actually on my to buy list. And the last little tease he put out there and I think I know what this game is, but we don't know 100% for sure, of course. He liked a tweet from Joseph Joestar that simply said, level five. Now, what I find fascinating about that is a lot of us will know level five from Professor Layton. And there is a brand new Professor Layton game that's supposed to come out in 2025, would not be shocked to see this here. Now, hold on, hold on, hold on. There's one more tweet we have to look at. So if we go over here, we'll see that the person posted this fake leak that came from 4chan. And on there, you'll note a particular game in a moment, cause as we scroll down, he says it's fake and this guy says no Contra. And he says, it will get a demo. Yoroh says Contra will get a demo. Now the Contra that's put on here is Contra Operation Goluger. I can't really pronounce it, but that apparently is the game that he's referencing. And look, that to me is very, very fascinating. And honestly, if we get a demo of this game, that just gives us something to play. Maybe it'd be a shadow drop demo even. They tend to do that in directs, give us shadow drop demos, let alone shadow drop releases. I wouldn't be surprised if some game in this direct ends up getting shadow drop. Look, that is just a big summary of all of Yoroh's leaked stuff for this direct. If he leaks anything else, I don't really know, we probably won't make a second video on it, but we will cover it in the pre-show tomorrow if it happens. By the way, we are gonna be live streaming at 7.15 AM central time. The direct will be happening 45 minutes after that. Now beyond that, of course, we are gonna also have a live stream tonight at 8 PM central where I'm gonna go ahead and give you some of my personal predictions. I have a few percolating right now. I was planning to tease them, but you know what? I think it took us long enough to get through the pure leaks. I'm gonna save all of my predictions for tonight. So show up if you wanna enjoy those predictions and let's go ahead and get this shindig rolling, Nintendo Direct tomorrow. Hell yeah.
