Support NeoGAF

[jmizzal]

there's a distinct lack of hype in this thread. Hell the Pokemon Direct thread reached a bunch of pages while this barely scratched it, and it's almost Direct time!

Well there is a Smash bros thread already going on, so i'm sure that has something to do with it

 

[friskykillface]

haha i thought it was on wednesday for EST, its tomorrow D: D D: D:

well damn, tomorrows pic should be a Smash Direct graphic/logo

Nobody knew what was going to happen in the Pokemon direct. The net generation f pokemon, the games so many peope were waiting to buy a 3ds for, the 1st 3d pokemon, was announced in that one

I hope we'll see a certain vampire killer tomorrow. If not, I'll cry bloody tears like a wicked child.

Sitting in a lecture when this happens, goddamnit.

Yea, so do I.

EDIT: Wait, this doesn't work lol.

 

[atr0cious]

I really hope the existence of Project M hasn't gone unnoticed by Sakurai.

Could we possibly hear tomorrow an unveil for NFC support in the game? Perhaps a battling card sub game or unlockable content via cards or figurines?

Seems like a perfect match.

Dooooooooubt this.

What seems logical to us is illogical to Nintendo and vice versa.

Anybody going to create a spoiler-free thread for those of us who won't be able to see it when it premieres?

GAF will be dead. Don't worry

No thanks.

Just go directly to the Nintendo Direct Archive page.

There's a possibility it won't be down.

 

[Mr. Smiley]

I hope the Youtube stream will up again. I won't be able to endure pain of UStream this time around.

Well, you could make it now so everyone can bookmark your thread?

 

[Sammy Samusu]

Nintendo will obviously use Smash as a tool to advertise Bayonetta... embarrassing.

Spoiler

Please do the same to MH4U.

 

[TheChits]

Just a direct? Embrace the madness

 

[ShockingAlberto]

Watching the mass-panic and everyone running around like chickens with their heads cut off today is really weird.

It's just a Direct about one game, you guys. It'll probably be twenty minutes long and, best case scenario, will reveal characters that you will know about by the end of this year, anyway. Everyone just chill.

A (summer) release date and (new) character reveals are enough to get hyped.

EXCITE.

 

[cafemomo]

Requested the day off for tomorrow. Call me super hyped.


This direct better make me drop my pants in a heart beat. That hasn't happened since LR's launch back last November.

 

[Neiteio]

I hope there's a special mode for the elite among us who kept their DK Bongos.

(I really just want an excuse to use those things again.)

:duca: !!1

 

[Spinluck]

I want GIFs guys, lots of GIFs.

 

[R0ckman]

yah. they tried. Sakurai does whatever he wants though. at least that's how I hear it

And yet people feel that Sakurai has no choice but to make Ridley or whoever playable...

 

[DaBoss]

No you don't. You want WIFs.

Yooooo!

 

[JStein0222]

A summer release date is all I want - All I'm hoping for!!

 

[emb]

I get off work 30 minutes before the Direct starts, but live about 40 minutes away. If it was on while I were at work, I could just watch most of it. If it were on after I were back home, it'd be no problem. It's managed to be at the worst possible little time frame of the day for me (almost). :\

It's ok though, because it's less than a day lahguohwouqhg[hog[jg[h489439h8renklbnbihglkhja;lj

 

[RobFox64tm]

Do we have any indication how long this Direct will be?

Eh every creator knows the worst part of creating is the fans. That's why they all have PR people and agents.

Would have to agree, asides for the times the community helps creators too.
For the most part though, I agree.

Yooooo!

I know where I'm DEFINITELY watching it now. YouTube all the way. Sorry but the only thing worth watching on GT, I think, is Bonus Round or their E3 coverage.

 

[L00P]

Same. I really wanna see the crazy reactions (or lack thereof) and the 404's

 

[Platy]

Sora Ltd. is just the office Sakurai and his wife work out of -- it's not an actual development studio. Project Sora was the name of the team put together to work on Kid Icarus: Uprising, but it dissolved after the game shipped.

Nintendo, Namco and Sora.


So Smash Bros 4 is like 1/3 indie ? xD

 

[Neoxon]

Her last name changed from Takahashi to Sakurai, and they're the only two employees of Sora Ltd.

Oddly enough, Sakurai's Japanese Wikipedia page (I think this is where I saw it) used to have a source, but it appears to have been taken down. One of Sakurai's friends (a fellow game developer) made a blog post in 2008 congratulating the two on their marriage. I distinctly remember the blog post saying that Sakurai promised to marry his fiancée as soon as Brawl was finished. It was only a few months ago that I read this, so I don't know why I'm having trouble finding it again.

Awwwwwww

Wonder if Sakurai will ever join EAD/gain his own full team

Sora is technically a Nintendo subsidiary, iirc.

Oh, you changed your avatar. Strange, I preferred your other one.

People taking off work to watch this tomorrow?

I love NeoGAF.

Just trying it out since I finished TW101 for the first time last night. This is the 4th (?) avatar I think I've had.

Would you like to make an avatar bet and increase that number?

[Javier]

So hold on a sec.

I've always been a supporter of Rayman in Smash, but now I'm reading that Ubisoft actually wanted him in?

 

[Sponge]

I'm going in to work, but I'm gonna leave around 4 so I can catch the direct.

The hype controls me.
