X new trailer (title reveal?)

Longing for it.
Praying for it.

*_*

Secret wish : Fantasy life!!

 

[Tricky I Shadow]

This thread is so weird.

 

[Frodo]

But seriously, does that really matter? I doubt even if the direct turns utterly utterly terrible people will be that shaken.

Feels like an significant amount of the posts in this thread are regarding why people are hyped or expressing worry about this fact anyway. The spiral of the hype train

It is always like that. People can't hype in peace anymore...

Hype =/= Expectations. Some people never get that.

 

[Sadist]

remember fire emblem x shin megami tensei? anyone?

We all do.

Maybe so, I mean I don't want to be disappointed, but we know how bad Nintendo can be sometimes when it comes to announcements, just look back at the VGX's.

The VGX? Really?

 

[Axass]

Majora's Mask 2 WiiU

Corrected that for you.

 

[friskykillface]

I think them taking those down from the Wii VC might point to some license issues with those three games.

ah bummer , didn't know that


Donkey Kong Land 1-3 on 3DS vc then B^)

You have to be kidding me...

Virtual Boy Virtual Console
Super Mario 3DLand 2

 

[Chindogg]

Throw Ace Attorney 4 in there and we'll talk.

It's the Phoenix Wright collection. If anything they'll make another collection with AA4, AAI1, and AAI2

Spoiler

make it happen Capcom.

Bayonetta 2 E-Shop Demo after Direct.
GAF would explode

I've been trying my best not to think about exactly that since I heard this news. Trying to half-think about it, from a sneaky sidewards angle so the thought doesn't see me coming. It's too good to be true, but the thought won't leave me.

 

[Axass]

I feel like the majority of people in this thread are going to be disappointed..

Nah, as long as they show X, Bayonetta 2 and one character for Smash I'm set. I think all 3 of those are a given so...

 

[gamerforever]

Corrected that for you.

Not sure I want direct sequels to games and is there any point in getting a new Zelda on to the Wii U anymore?

 

[Hasney]

THAT'S FINE. Just announce them both (or just AAI2 digital only on 3DS)

Bayonetta 2 E-Shop Demo after Direct.

I don't get why they don't do things like this. They have no problem dropping new downloadable titles on the eShop after a Direct, so why not demos to some of the big games that are coming?

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

Probably, not like it matters it'll be on there anyways

 

[CronoShot]

Thank you good sir.

 

[DaBoss]

This thread is just pure hype...there should be a limit on that.

if you sum them up, you'll have 123, the exact cm number of Bayonetta breast circumference

Thanks, that is pretty long.

I 'm calling it right now.

Nintendogs+Cats+Ferrets!

I kid, I kid.

I really hope to be pleasantly surprised.

2 as in using the same mechanics and atmosphere, just like ALTTP and ALBW.

It's not a matter of if there will be a new Zelda on WiiU, we know for certain there will be one, it's has been in development for a good while already. I just wish it's similar to MM.

Aaaaaaaaaand.... now I want it.

 

[Finalow]

my body is so ready for X.

but probably more ready for being disappointed by a shitty direct as usual.

In before 20 minutes of Donkey Kong.

As a ferret owner I know that game would be hell, think of all the destroyed chairs/couches in the game.

 

[Riki]

The E3 demo for Bayo 2 on eShop today would be perfection.

 

[PlumCantaloupe]

Watch the direct be full of eShop Indy games (and DK and MK) ... and X and Smash left for the "fall" direct

 

[Oersted]

Maybe so, I mean I don't want to be disappointed, but we know how bad Nintendo can be sometimes when it comes to announcements, just look back at the VGX's.

I'm joking btw. VGX are just not, by any stretch of imagination, relevant.

Thanks LA

 

[drgambit]

here's everything I think is within the realm of possibility, in order of likelihood.
the main idea is focusing on first half of 2014, with an emphasis on western appeal.

Have I missed anything GAF?

• Tomodachi Collection Western Release in depth
  
• DKCTF launch trailer
  
• Mario Kart 8 new info
  
• Kirby Triple Deluxe western release new info
  
• Yoshi's New Island 3DS new info
  
• DS VC on Wii U details
  
• GBA VC on Wii U or 3DS details
  
• 3D classics on 3DS
  
• Pokemon Bank mention
  
• Club Nintendo nonsense
  
• Smash Wii U and 3DS new info
  
• NNID account integration/upcoming Wii U quick launch system update
  
• Sonic Boom Wii U/3DS new info
  
• Bayonetta 2 trailer
  
• X new trailer (title reveal?)
  
• eshop indie games new info (FAST on Wii U, on 3DS - maybe Moon/Ironfall?)
  
• Steel Diver SubWars reveal + trailer
  
• Localization/release info on known 3rd party titles?
  
• Yarn Yoshi teaser?
  
• SMT x Fire Emblem teaser?
  
• Yoshi/Zelda DLC for Sonic Lost World - further info??
  
• Hyrule Warriors further info??
  
• Luigi's Mansion announcement?? (DLC, port, etc.)
  
• Bayonetta 1 port???
  
• Unannounced Projects from Next Level or Retro or Monster or EAD/other subsidiaries????
  
• Unannounced 3rd party multiplat????
  
• Unannounced 3rd party exclusive?????

If Tomodachi Collection is on that list, FANTASY LIFE should be on there as well...

You've got 40 minutes of disappoint this time!

I am actually beginning to believe this will be a good one though. Damn my expectations.

 

[Gianni Merryman]

So this Direct's eShop surprise will be Bayonetta 1, right?

I hope they have something more substantial than a port of an old game; I mean, as far as I'm concerned I would buy a copy without a wink, but Wii U needs more than that at the moment, so I hope they have some aces - i.e. exclusive games - up their sleeve.

 

[RoadDogg]

I just want to know when I can play Mario Golf World Tour. That was my most wanted game last year.

Wasn't February 2013 the direct that dropped all the mega bombas last year?

[CassSept]

I can't believe the E3 2013 Nintendo direct thread had 43 pages in total ( http://neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=583441 ) and this one has 60+ while the broadcast hasn't even started.

Aside from what others had said, mind that GAF died about 30 seconds into Direct, recovered for about a minute in the middle and came back up near the end of the event. If GAF didn't die the thread would be thrice the size at least.

 

[Hasney]

I believe so. That's my thinking: Awful financial results = PANIC TIME.

Panicked Nintendo truly is the best Nintendo.

 

[Diddy Kong]

Snowing here so there's a really good chance my class is cancelled. THANK YOU BASED IWATA

 

[Azure J]

This 9-12 inches of snow coming down today better not affect my viewing of this event.

New York City/Northeastern GAF?

It totally fucking sucks that City Universities are open today. I have to trudge through this crap for a 10AM class, come back home (because fuck staying around on a day like this) and hope to God that they cancel my 2PM class (which would have me there from 2 to 4).

I think those are the big new things being announced. Who knows what else.

New trailers on already announced games.

It was the one in late January iirc.

All these people posting guesses what they think will be at this Nintendo Direct... just do a Nintendo Direct Bingo!!!

Right above the city, I'm just happy I'm off work today.

 

[KageZero]

Damn i though direct was at 17:00 but it's 23:00. Weird time if you compare it with other directs so i hope they will announce something special.

 

[Azure J]

Come to think of it, where is our Nintendo Direct bingo? I don't think I've seen a pre-hype thread since E3 2010 that didn't have one.

Posts like this remind me of why I'm always down for (big) Nintendo Direct threads. :lol

 

[phanphare]

so this is probably old news by now but I just woke up. so the Direct is 41 minutes long? that's the same length as the E3 Direct, no?

Spoiler

hype
