Support NeoGAF

[Vanillalite]

Gamepadless SKU incoming?!?!?!

 

[Japanmanx3]

"Look at them go!"

Spoiler

Blindingly boarding this hypetrain with no expectations with the hope that the best surprises await!

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

My predictions:

-Bravely Default ("hey, it's out now, guys! please go buy it!")
-Dankey Kang ("coming out next week")
-Prof Layton's new game ("coming out next week")
-Disney Magical World ("coming out next month")
-Yoshi's New Island ("coming out next month")
-Mario Kart 8 ("coming out in April")
-Kirby Triple Deluxe ("coming out in May")
-Smash Bros ("coming out later this year")

no new game announcements
no dates for Bayonetta 2 or X
no Dragon Quest VII or Dragon Quest X

Mario Kart is already scheduled for May.

 

[MisterHero]

Get ready for the year of Yoshi!

Yeeah off Yossi

/Please Understand

 

[plutoknight]

Just reassure me that X and Bayonetta 2 are dropping this year (or, hell, early next year), and that's all I really want.

But,I mean, I wouldn't mind some mega-bombs. Xenoblade HD. Zelda U. Twilight Princess HD. Galaxy HD collection. Super Mario Sunshine 2.

....but I bet it's just fucking Donkey Kong, Smash-stuff and MK8.

 

[Xater]

Here's an idea Nintendo. At the end of the NoE direct
announce that SMTIV is available on the European eshop right at a significant one week "we are sorry for making you wait for-fucking-ever" discount.

I like the way you think.

 

[Big_Al]

I just want a release date for Bayonetta 2.

 

[Uncle Rupee]

Gamepadless SKU incoming?!?!?!

Iwata just said they are focusing on making games that advertise the uniqueness of the Gamepad, so a pack-in with SM3DW or something

Mario Kart is already scheduled for May.

Damnit, well thanks, edited

 

[upandaway]

Aaaaahh can't watch it on time

There probably won't be anything, I guess

 

[Grizzo]

My predictions:

-Bravely Default ("hey, it's out now, guys! please go buy it!")
-Dankey Kang ("coming out next week")
-Professor Layton's new game ("coming out next week")
-Disney Magical World ("coming out next month")
-Yoshi's New Island ("coming out next month")
-Mario Kart 8 ("coming out in April")
-Kirby Triple Deluxe ("coming out in May")
-Smash Bros ("coming out later this year")

no new game announcements
no dates for Bayonetta 2 or X
no Dragon Quest VII or Dragon Quest X

And if we behave, we might get some info about Mario Golf: World Tour ("coming... actually we don't know yet").

 

[Albo]

AE Games reveal early?

Are you HYPED YET

#AttackOnIwata #AttackOnWaraWara

Very nice

 

[MetalGuardian]

I am going to spend the evening installing this bad boy:

So long as I can still maintain my WiFi connection and meager power supply to play my NES on a broken TV, I'll be golden!

Don't forgot to bring the canned beans, kids. SOMETHING needs to power us through the onslaught of radioactive fallout from the nukes Iwata is about to launch.

I'll reemerge once Metroid Dread and Platinum's Star Fox game are released! Au revoir!

 

[ILoveBish]

Mario theft auto. Believe.

 

[FlynnCL]

10PM? That's quite late compared to the last few Nintendo Directs.

Then again, it's not like these have a pattern.

Anyway, I'm quite hyped to watch this, mainly for any Smash news and the fact that I'm still in denial about Rune Factory 4's news...

 

[tolkir]

After Nintendo Direct.

Arino -> Iwata
Kids -> NeoGAF

 

[Heyt]

DQ VII, EX troopers, Smash 3DS launch window & trailer, Kirby and one game announcement that I like is what I ideally would like to have.

What I'll get will be more Yoshi stuff, Kirby and that soccer game they talked about a while ago.

 

[Mr. RPG]

My predictions:

-Yoshi's New Island ("coming out next month")
-Mario Kart 8 ("coming out in May")
-Kirby Triple Deluxe ("coming out in May")
-Smash Bros ("coming out later this year")

no new game announcements
no dates for Bayonetta 2 or X
no Dragon Quest VII or Dragon Quest X

"and if Bravely Default is not enough for you RPG fans, we have another RPG coming out for you, Dragon Quest VII, together with Square-Enix we are bringing this beloved RPG out from Japan and to your 3DS."

Fucking lol!

 

[TheCongressman1]

You mean worthless SKU. If they stopped supporting the pad, I'd stop supporting the console. Its the only reason I bought it.

Do you feel they have done a good job so far of supporting that device?

 

[drbond]

Wonder what they could do to make it appealing if they did announce something

NSMB + NSLB + Super Mario 3D World + 64GB HDD for $249.99

is there actually any SKU set up that could make it light the market on fire?

I'd be perfectly happy if they released the 32GB black model with gamepad + Super Mario 3D world (download code) + WiiMote Plus + Wii Party U (plus the little stand for your gamepad) => $249.99.

They would be crazy to release yet another bundle for $299.99 at this point, since its still too expensive. $249.99 is the sweet spot.

I really wouldn't be surprised if Wii Party U is involved in the next bundle, since the game has been put on clearance prices at most retailers (the game bundle is the same price as the black wiimote-plus normally by itself...cheaper in some cases with Best Buy GCU discounts)....and the game has only been out for a few months.

 

[Regiruler]

I want the Bayonetta 1 port already.

 

[Ricker]

I dont care if there's no dates for Bayonetta 2 or X but goddamnit,show us a little bit of new gameplay please,not a CG trailer,some actual gameplay,even if it's a minute long...you know this will make buy a WiiU Nintendo no...? lol

 

[Tehalemi]

I'm sure someone could have fun with this gif. Maybe add the GAF logo/hype or whatever:

HYPPPEEEE!!!!!!

 

[lonely]

A Nintendo Direct and NISA Press Conference tomorrow hell yeah! Come ON SMT IV EU release date.

 

[jmizzal]

Give me Bayo 1 announced for WiiU
Devils 3rd WiiU announced
Bayo 2 announced for April

Hey the late time in Europe could mean a lot of mature content lol

[Frolow]

All I'm hoping for is a date for Layton Vs. Phoenix Wright. Anything else is extra.

 

[Kjellson]

If they don't mention FExSMT and Yarn Yoshi tomorrow I officially give up on their existence.

 

[paolo11]

I just want some news about X. What's the official title? What's the story? How's the online?

Nintendo, please show some X information. Damn!!!!

 

[Tom Nook Sawyer]

I'm terrible with time zones...are these all airing at the same time again?

 

[JinjoUnchained]

It will change your NNID to "thief"

I see what you did there.

Spoiler

What does it say if you try to shoplift Link's Awakening?

 

[Riki]

I just want some news about X. What's the official title? What's the story? How's the online?

Nintendo, please show some X information. Damn!!!!

It should just be an hour long trailer for the game, honestly.
We don't need to know anything about any other game.

 

[Litri]

Bayonetta 1 Wii u edition

includes a demo for 2


please

THIS!

 

[Kandinsky]

ok this is it, we're getting DQ7 and X.

 

[Arzehn]

Just announce DQX for the west, thanks.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

 

[Sendou]

I'm terrible with time zones...are these all airing at the same time again?

Yes

 

[Koppai]

If they don't mention FExSMT and Yarn Yoshi tomorrow I officially give up on their existence.

I'm betting we will probably see Yarn Yoshi and more of Hyrule Warriors. Maybe Bayonetta 2 mention.

[Volotaire]

At last, hype train!

Although it's only info about games until Spring. (focusing)

Looking for some good tidbits about Mario Kart 8 and account/system .

A surprise would be nice relating to SKU or new software.

 

[Ragus]

Hello. I came here for my annual:

-plz DQX

-plz SMT IV in Europe

Goodbye.

 

[Mpl90]

A Nintendo Direct and NISA Press Conference tomorrow hell yeah! Come ON SMT IV EU release date.

NISA Direct incoming.

Iwata wearing a Prinny costume:

"Hello duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude"

 

[FaintDeftone]

Zelda U unveil or GTFO.

 

[Mr. RPG]

This is how I feel about no Dragon Quest VII localization.

 

[Kouriozan]

Remember, the December ND was about Q1 2014 and we still got Hyrule Warriors.

 

[krizzx]

Do you feel they have done a good job so far of supporting that device?

No, even they said they haven't done a good job of showing the benefit of the gamepad. Only the launch games really took advantage of it.

Till this day, Nitnendo Land and Zombi U are the best used of the gamepad available to my knowledge.

I still make use of the offscreen and toupad all the time though. I'd like to see another Nintendo Land or a game like it.

 

[Oersted]

I never heard from that site.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

Zelda U unveil or GTFO.

Then what would they unveil at E3???

 

[Meesh]

Give me Bayo 1 announced for WiiU
Devils 3rd WiiU announced
Bayo 2 announced for April

Hey the late time in Europe could mean a lot of mature content lol

also DQX coming to the west

Is there any real weight behind expecting Devils 3rd on WiiU, or just more hype train madness? I'm behind this notion either way

 

[Riki]

Remember, the December ND was about Q1 2014 and we still got Hyrule Warriors.

A Direct in all three territories usually means one surprise.
The fact that this is a later Direct is pretty interesting as well. It will be more "prime time".
Don't want to get too hyped, but it's exciting!

Is there any real weight behind expecting Devils 3rd on WiiU, or just more hype train madness? I'm behind this notion either way

It's been hinted to be coming to the WiiU since before the WiiU was a thing, so, yeah.
