You know what would be awesome? If at the end of the Direct, Reggie comes on to say "But before you leave, we want you to step into one more world for the Nintendo Wii U. . ."
*footage of a massive field that is absolutely stunning. No music, we just hear the tweets of birds and the sound of running water coming from a river that is running through the field. Then the peaceful tone changes to an ominous one as evil creatures rise from the ground. You then hear the faint sound of galloping. The monsters hear it too. Could it be..?!
We now see a figure riding a horse through a forest setting, but it's too fast too to make out any distinct details.The figure exits the woods and enters the vast field at lightning speed, but the glare from the fiery sun that is setting in the distance turns the horse rider into a black silhouette.
The army of monsters spot him, and ready their weapons, but before any bombs are thrown or arrows are fired, the rider draws his sword, which glows with a brilliant golden light and reveals a teenage boy with point ears, donning a green tunic.
At this second, the camera zooms into Link's face as he cracks a smile, and the epic Riders of Doom song plays. This is followed by the most incredible gameplay footage of Link destroying this army of monsters that range from massive Moblins, Dodongos, as well as Tektites, Octorocks and Stalfos. While we see Link massacring what we can assume are Ganon's goons, we see quick flashes of dungeon and exploration gameplay.
The trailer ends with an overhead shot of Link sheathing his sword with the corpses of monsters all around him. They all POOF. The camera zooms into Link and we seem him wipe the sweat from his forehead and he breathes a sigh of relief. That is, until he hears a cry for help in the distance. As he turns to the voice, the camera very quickly travels across the field in first person until it reaches the window of Hyrule Castle. It's Princess Zelda. Her hand is pressed against the window, and we see a gloomy figure behind her who begins to laugh manically.
The screen fades to black and we see the Hylian Shield appear, and the Master Sword to follow as the blade slides in behind the shield. The title appears in front of the sword and shield--"The Legend of Zelda." The music and logo fade, and we hear galloping.
After the trailer, Miyamoto appears dressed as Link, and Aonuma is Princess Zelda. "We hope you enjoy the best Zelda ever when it comes to Wii U this Holiday" they both sing in harmony before flying out of the frame. Reggie runs out in a Ganondorf get up "Hey, guys! You forgot me!" Iwata appears to tell Reggie to "please understand," then he turns to the camera, winks, and flies off screen, leaving Reggie alone. "I guess my body wasn't ready."

Just give us Star Fucking Fox U and call it a day. At this point I would much rather have a true sequel to Star Fox 64 than another Metroid Prime game.....we should get both though honestly.

Oh my god the disappointment could very well kill people here. I think the hope for something surprising and redeeming has reached a fever pitch.

A number of things are all but guaranteed to appear, but that would make it all the more disappointing should they be absent tomorrow.
The Direct giveth and the Direct taketh away.

The moment Soraya Saga retweeted it was time to go full hype.
You mustn't be afraid to dream bigger: Nintendo Fireworks Simulator!

If anyone wants a challenge is it possible to have an "X" on the forehead of Kaine (left) and Nier (middle) and another "X" on Yonah's (right) arm?
If you're not overflowing with hype, you're doing it wrong.

Oh man.......I can’t even tell who's being serious and who's being sarcastic in here anymore.
Some of you need to calm down. If this thing doesn’t deliver I fear mass suicide will happen.

Remember guys:
1) This Direct is later than usual
2) Bayonetta 2 will most likely be shown (two retweets from Platinum Games executives, only project they're working on with Nintendo is Bayonetta 2 and they don't usually retweet Directs)
3) X will most likely be shown (Soraya Saga, the wife of key Monolith Soft director Tetsuya Takahashi, only retweets when X will be shown, and she retweeted this Direct)
4) There will most likely be a new character reveal for Smash Bros. (Sakurai retweeted the Direct, and usually when Sakurai retweets an upcoming Direct, a new character will be announced)
It definitely seems like this Direct is more hardcore than usual.
This sounds like a retread of GAF wishes / speculation. Looks like whoever wrote that reads GAF.

How do you expect me to be calm when a new Yoshi's Safari is about to happen!?
It's late because Iwata will get into trouble for showing off Devil's Third before 10pm. ;-)
