Confirmed for tomorrow, February 13, 2019, Nintendo will be streaming a Direct, the first non-indie focused of the year. There are many speculations regarding what will and will not be mentioned, revealed or expanded upon in the presentation and rightfully so, Nintendo has many games scheduled for 2019, some of which have yet to even be announced officially. I’d like to take a look at what I believe we will see in tomorrow’s Nintendo Direct, as well as what we won’t.

Bioware’s upcoming shared world shooter take on the role-playing genre has me super excited but not for any of the words just mentioned, save for “shooter.” I am looking most forward to the abilities the Javelins will provide me regarding movement. All of the marketing of “Anthem” thus far has lead me to believe come February 22, I will be able to feel like Iron Man. With the demo behind us, did it make me feel like my own version of Tony Stark in his prime? Did the gunplay feel good? Did the demo give me good vibes for what “Anthem” will bring?

It is no secret that Sony had an incredible year in 2018 regarding its first party offerings. Sony Santa Monica changed the industry with its April release of “God of War.” Not a full five months later, Insomniac Games came out swinging with a revolutionary experience for comic book fans in the form of “Marvel’s Spider-Man.” Amidst all of the praise I too gave these juggernauts, I nearly forgot the mere existence of the other triple A exclusive the PlayStation 4 earned in between the two. And just over a month into the new year, I can confidently say, sleeping on “Detroit: Become Human” was my biggest mistake of 2018.
