Nintendo Direct Feb 13, 2014 Thread | 3DS/Wii U Spring games

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, that means 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.

It all sounds too good to be true.

Pokemon FPS confirmed. Thxs Aqua :)
 
I sure hope the Smash newcomer is Dixie on her own and not in a team with Diddy. She is way too awesome to be part of a team like the Ice Climbers.
 
Soraya Saga retweeted, you know what this means?!

Every time someone says "kong" I kill a puppy.
 
GAF, you're getting me so excited about this direct =) I don't have twitter, so hearing about the Platinum, wife, and Sakurai tweets rockets my hype into outer space!

Those 4chan images are incredibly depressing.

Well if it were true, we'd get the Bayonetta 2 and X trailers that everyone is hyped for. I just hope the Smash thing is fake
I know it's probably all fake, but I'd love something like that minus the Smash 3DS date
 
Those 4chan images are incredibly depressing.

The only time I even remember a leaker from /v/ being even semi-legitimate was Wentos, the Traveling Salesman who leaked stuff about the Sonic franchise. When Unleashed was released, he leaked a bunch of details about Colours that turned out to be true and he leaked a bunch of details about Generations after Colours release. He also said that Colours would get an HD port if Generations performed well enough on 360/PS3... Guess it didn't.
