Someone didn't see the January 2013 direct.

Has anything actually come from that yet besides WWHD?

 

[Shurayuki]

Okay I'm at the brink of tearing up, I need a video of this

Couldn't find it on youtube (that part seems to have been taken down) so here's a weird video site.

Ha it's Kasuga, he's funny know him from Run For Many and Battle For Money, ex baseball pro IIRC.

 

[Kriken]

Probably the best thing to do.

Nah that'll never work, hype just breeds more hype

 

[Linkhero1]

You guys are nuts. Nintendo Directs aren't E3 press conferences; it's usually just a couple of small new announcements after a bunch of stuff we know about.

Don't you remember last January? It was magical.

 

[BMOFTW]

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.

[Rvaisse]

This is the GAF i love !
Only 6 hours left !

I wanna see iwata's banana

 

[Timeaisis]

And to think, when this thread started yesterday I was wondering if it would explode like the last one did seeing as the last Direct was somewhat of a let-down. I guess the Nintendo hype train stops for no one.

 

[Mr Buddy]

Direct hype is the best hype!

 

[Nibel]

Couldn't find it on youtube (that part seems to have been taken down) so here's a weird video site.

Ha it's Kasuga, he's funny know him from Run For Many and Battle For Money, ex baseball pro IIRC.

Very nice, thanks a lot Shurayuki!

 

[AntiFacebook]

All I ask is SMTIV for Europe. Pls Nintendo

Since this game isn't being published by Nintendo,this is not gonna happen

 

[Hermii]

If Nintendos reasoning for not releasing a Direct last month was avoiding People to expect it would be like last years January Direct, it sure backfired.

 

[L~A]

Has anything actually come from that yet besides WWHD?

Yes : Super Mario 3D World, the Wii U update.

 

[Riki]

hello

The French have returned!

 

[Hasney]

Since this game isn't being published by Nintendo,this is not gonna happen

They talk about 3rd parties too. There's just.... Not that many of them.

 

[Sadist]

Oh my

Ideaman

 

[Oersted]

Choo choo motherfuckers

 

[Plinko]

I just want Kid Icarus: Uprising HD.

 

[Linkhero1]

PSA: The Wonderful 101 is at the wonderful price of $23.99 on Amazon

For any of you who have yet to pick it up! :<

Still a bit too expensive for me. I need it to drop $3.99 more and then I'll finally consider buying it.

 

[Wishmaster92]

hello

awww yeah

 

[Silkworm]

I believe Nintendo said they are taking this coming E3 more seriously than the last one so they still need to save something for that show. I know this probably means an E3 reveal for Zelda (not Hyrule Warriors) but they still need a few more things to show off that will probably release in the autumn/fall/winter period.

 

[Ban Puncher]

In honour of Valentine's Day and Nintendo Direct Day, let us remember last year's Luigis Mansion Valentine;

And an edit I did;

 

[Mr. RPG]

all I want is Dragon Quest VII localization or maybe Majora's Mask 3D announcement.

Just give me one of these things.

 

[eighty(one)]

All I want:

SSBU/3DS release time frame

Mario Golf World Tour video and release date

X trailer

A reveal for each 3DS + WiiU:

WiiU: something like Metroid; 3DS: something like LoZ:MM or Wave Race.

 

[silenttwn]

Still a bit too expensive for me. I need it to drop $3.99 more and then I'll finally consider buying it.

 

[Sammy Samusu]

Sega to announce a new Shining game?

http://gematsu.com/2014/02/new-shining-game-announcement-coming-tonight

 

[Hasney]

The hype train is going to get you, like it or not

Spoiler

I know I know, the slapper needs Iwatas head on it

 

[Silkworm]

Still a bit too expensive for me. I need it to drop $3.99 more and then I'll finally consider buying it.

Er, I just checked. Amazon has W101 for $23.99. Go for it.

Edit: Nevermind. I thought the PSA said is was $32.... *doh!*

 

[Kriken]

Still a bit too expensive for me. I need it to drop $3.99 more and then I'll finally consider buying it.

 

[Graphics Horse]

Yes : Super Mario 3D World, the Wii U update.

Well I guess they said they were making a 3D Mario game, ok I'll accept.

What happened to GBA vc?

 

[Hasney]

Sega to announce a new Shining game?

http://gematsu.com/2014/02/new-shining-game-announcement-coming-tonight

Said it when it was mentioned before. It's going to be VC at best for Shining I reckon.

 

[efyu_lemonardo]

Oh sweet lord

keep in mind, every '?' cuts the probability in half

 

[Koppai]

Still a bit too expensive for me. I need it to drop $3.99 more and then I'll finally consider buying it.

That's fucked up

 

[ffdgh]

Lol never seen this unite fail.

 

[Rösti]

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

I'll post the updated bingo card and template within the hour.

 

[Raitaro]

If only the rest of the world shared our hype, what a beautiful Nintendo filled world it would be out there...

That being said: HYPE LIST TIME!

New IP by Miyamoto
New game featuring Wario, preferably something new entirely
New F-Zero / Star Fox / Metroid / Kid Icarus
Reboot of [insert classic Nintendo franchise here]
3DS ports to Wii U (Kid Icarus + Luigi's Mansion 2 in particular)
Gamecube/Wii ports to Wii U (Wii Sports Resort, Mario Galaxies, improved Sunshine)

...

New Mega Man game for Wii U in cooperation with Capcom.

(Heck, I would even be hyped if they annouce that vaguely announced third pillar device / thing that combines gaming with working out and montoring your body etc. If it is a full blown Nintendo quality experience that builds on the foundations of Wii Sports and Wii Fit, but far more in depth and flexible, I'd certainly be curious.)

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

thanks, you too guys

so what's the consensus for this ND? year of peach? nintendo going smartphonzz?

Sacre vert.

Ideaman, stahp.

 

[Ban Puncher]

 

[perfectchaos007]

Any coincidence January's NPD numbers release just minutes after the conclusion of this Nintendo Direct?

 

[Neoxon]

Still a bit too expensive for me. I need it to drop $3.99 more and then I'll finally consider buying it.

What are you talking about, the game is amazing. It's worth the money even without the discount.

 

[Linkhero1]

That's fucked up

Hey now. I would totally be on it if it featured a Cranky cameo.

Any coincidence January's NPD numbers release just minutes after the conclusion of this Nintendo Direct?

Nintendo wants to overshadow the terrible NPD numbers with this Direct.

 

[Malus]

You guys are nuts. Nintendo Directs aren't E3 press conferences; it's usually just a couple of small new announcements after a bunch of stuff we know about.

When that stuff we know about includes X, Bayo, Smash, and MK it's all good.

 

[Kriken]

Lol never seen this unite fail.

Here's the original video, the user compiled failed QTEs in other videos as well
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UnDIdeYwjSE

 

[Regiruler]

Oh fuck it.

Metroid Dread
Kid Icarus Downfall
X(enoverse)
Bayonetta 2 collector's edition with free Bayonetta 1
Smash in June
Universal Account system with eShop cross-buy, half compensation in eShop credit for people who already bought something on 3DS and Wii U
Devil's Third now Wii U exclusive
Metal Gear Rising 2 timed exclusive with MGR port in March
Iwata taking out a PS4, saying "please understand" then throwing it at Reggie's chest where it instantly disintegrates because his body was ready

 

[Silkworm]

Hey now. I would totally be on it if it featured a Cranky cameo.

DLC... believe!

 

[Oersted]

I'll post the updated bingo card and template within the hour.

Almost everyone is back. Shit dem feels.

 

[Fandangox]

Still a bit too expensive for me. I need it to drop $3.99 more and then I'll finally consider buying it.

 

[Version 3.0]

Any coincidence January's NPD numbers release just minutes after the conclusion of this Nintendo Direct?

I don't know if they're related, but the timing there is gonna hit GAF's servers pretty hard.

 

[efyu_lemonardo]

I'll post the updated bingo card and template within the hour.

feel free to borrow from my list if needed

(not this one)

 

[Nugg]
