Swoby's right. We got a lot, even if most of it was under the table.
That said, since there weren't any major announcements, I dared to make my own in the RP section...
(If BW leadership is looking, it would be pretty neat to pick up MEA2's story in the beginning of looking for the Quarian Ark - maybe looking for clues on a planet?)

I didn't even consider that - the next game starting with the Pathfinder searching for the Quarian Ark and that starting off grand events, while surprising people (who haven't been paying attention out of game) with next gen hanar, elcor, volus, quarians.

This is actually a better N7 Day for me than last year or the year before. Why?
Well, I'm usually actually kind of cynical about the day. Sell some merch, say some nice things, any otherwise usually not have that much going on.
Wait, that sounds like this year too. What makes this year special?
2016 I could wave it off as them wanting to promote Mass Effect: Andromeda. 2017 I could wave it off as them wanting to not scare people off of buying stuff in MEA MP.
What's happening this year? Surely the MEA MP can't be that important with Anthem coming up. Surely they can't be relying that much on merch. My worse expectations were less than a blog post - but nearly nothing save for a couple nice tweets.
But what happened? -upgrade to Xbox graphics, an upgrade that didn't need to happen but was a bone to relevant players -a focused video, with people seeming genuinely in good spirits about the series -implications and near-statements of more games to come, from Casey Hudson -the book actually happened, and it's all a sort of setup to the future -merch can annoy me, but the idea that they seem to be ramping up/adding to merch is interesting -the idea that both MET and MEA treated as equal or near equal arcs in perhaps the larger vision, continues -they still have a MP guy that can still do his events and tweaks
In 2018. If this was a dying franchise, not even half of these things would happen. Are most of these things interesting to me? Not really or not much. But I'm inspired by this N7 Day because the narrative seems clear to me - more Mass Effect is intended for as soon as they can get to it. Bioware is really pushing expanding Edmonton capabilities, and I wouldn't be shocked if they outright decide for the 2020s to have large Anthem, Dragon Age, AND Mass Effect divisions so there's always production instead of too many shifting priorities.
I didn't get much this year.. except hope. I'll take hope.
At best, if production gets faster and easier through Frostbyte engineering, we see teasing as soon as next year, though I still doubt that.
Logitech G @logitechg Alright Mass Effect fans, #N7Day is here and it’s time to party. We’ll be celebrating Commander Shepard and all of his space travels — RT for a chance to win a ME:Andromeda G810 keyboard!
Catherynne Valente @catvalente I will be doing an AMA on the Mass Effect subreddit tomorrow at 1pm EST. Come ask all your Annihilation/ME related questions! Or anything else! www.reddit.com/r/masseffect

No Geth though.
RIP Flashlight heads...
After time adrift among open stars, past tides of light, and through shoals of dust, I will return to where I began.
"I have a huge email thread about what the Volus look like, and thought we had it all sorted out, and then it was decided to keep that revelation back in case they wanted to do it in-game later on."
Josh Dean @joshingtron Happy #N7day ! As someone who has been in (first character killed in 1 & 2), mocapped for (yes, I am responsible for the Sheppard dance) and directed within (@masseffect andromeda) I have much to be grateful to @bioware for. I love you guys and will always be grateful!

Wait....is he saying his is the motion for the Shepard dance? 'Cause, that's probably not something one should be admitting in public....

Michael Gamble @gamblemike I’ve got a few ideas. We should talk.
Quotes like that imply, to me at least, that no real work has started on the next Mass Effect game but they have intent to do something at some point, maybe.
