Has anyone confirmed that this is not the Final Fantasy that was revealed in Jump today?

 

[Experien]

After the successful Fire Emblem, they have to make a new Advance Wars . I want a new Advance Wars more than Halo 2...that's insanity.

How's that insane? New versus something you've already played.

That's too early in development to be featured I think. This is a round table about a game we can likely expect this holiday season.

 

[Axass]

I don't think the series is so high profile that it'd get its own event. I think either a Majora's Mask remake, or Monolithsoft's 3DS RPG seem like big contenders.

Though that assumes either one of those exists, especially the latter. We've heard nothing on that title for years.

I don't think that was ever a thing, just speculation on the basis of a concept pic done with the sole purpose of hiring artists.

Monolith has helped co-developing a bunch of games on 3DS but there never was a proper game announcement from them.

Usual case of media outlets shitting the bed and reporting their own fantasies as truth if you ask me.

 

[ratcliffja]

Has anyone guessed Daigasso yet?

I would be so crazy happy for that. It kills me that they still have never released band brothers over here. Also am I wrong for translating daigasso as megaband?

It never existed. Honnes studio is just seen asset support studio.

 

[TheSlySoul]

Majora's Mask 3DS is a pretty decent bet. All the Nintendo nods they have been making to the game (Hyrule Warriors and Zelda having a mask) would also believe to point to it.

 

[Voliko]

Everytime I'm reminded of this, I die a little inside.

I love Halo 2 with all my heart and it was some of my best gaming memories; so that's definitely insane for me. Though, I am sick right now and nothing would make me happier than laying under the blankets and playing a new Advance Wars. You know...fuck it actually, going to go play some Dual Strike.

 

[Platy]

Does we KNOW it is an YET unnanounced game ?

BEcause the descriptions of the round table are pre-e3... so a Fantasy Life localization Round Table fit the bill

 

[Vyse The Legend]

Majora's Mask
Advance Wars
Metroid

If it's none of these, I'll be disappointed.

 

[Coolwhip]

Wont be Zelda, there is enough Zelda coming. Metroid sounds like a safe bet. Or maybe a new Mother game?

OOoooor a new IP.

 

[Axass]

This.

Think about it from Nintendo's POV:

1. They used the digital event to hype up the WiiU after many months of void in the games department and lackluster sales.
   
2. They are also using a different approach to E3, sending out news more gradually, during the whole event, not just in the conference.
   
3. The 3DS holiday season is a big gaping hole of nothingness.
   
4. At the roundtable there will be all the world's media outlets ready to post on their sites the breaking news about the new game.

It's the perfect setup.

what happened to the 3rd person shooter game

We don't know shit

For the bolded:

 

[random25]

Is it also possible that this is...Pokken?

Pokémon fans are on the handheld platform. So there is a possibility.

 

[Axass]

If this is anything to go by, no.

 

[sindbadthesailor]

I'd much prefer a new 2D Metroid over a another Zelda game.

 

[Rizsparky]

I'd much prefer a new 2D Metroid over a another Zelda game.

I dont think anyone wants another 2D Zelda in the same engine as A Link between Worlds.

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

I dont think anyone wants another 2D Zelda in the same engine as A Link between Worlds.

I do. Best handheld Zelda since 1993

If this is anything to go by, no.

Weren't there two Pokken trademarks?

 

[random25]

If this is anything to go by, no.

A 3DS version perhaps?

 

[MarauderShields]

I'd much prefer a new 2D Metroid over a another Zelda game.

Especially one I already played but there is no chance it is Metroid so I guess it doesn't matter.

Nintendo PR told me yesterday that they plan to announce the game at the roundtable.

 

[Axass]

That's true, hmm.

 

[Claneko]

Normally I would be hesitant about getting my hopes up for anything, but after Nintendo's E3 showing...it's impossible. They have proven themselves crazy in the best way and there is no telling what sort of incredible reveal we will witness.

 

[GhostTrick]

Nintendo PR told me yesterday that they plan to announce the game at the roundtable.

Eh, did they specifically said a "big game" ?

 

[Sammy Samusu]

It's either NFC or Majora's Mask.

 

[Axass]

Nintendo PR told me yesterday that they plan to announce the game at the roundtable.

What were the reactions from the press to the Pac-Man reveal? I remember WTF leaving people bummed last year.

 

[Scooter155]

I'd buy it!

I'm hoping the announcement is more than one game, and I hope it's Majora's Mask and Metroid.

Brill Trinen re-tweeted this tweet saying that it is not Fantasy Life:

For the bolded:

I have time for that. In fact, I'll set aside the time to watch it if that is the case.

 

[jschreier]

Lots of applause, excitement. But the room wasn't just press; there were lots of Nintendo fansites and other guests.

 

[Hylian7]

OOoooor a new IP.

Did you see Zelda Williams last night?

 

[Midnight Believer]

Something new that nobody expected would be great.

 

[vinnygambini]

I have time for that. In fact, I'll set aside the time to watch it if that is the case.

It's the roundtable discussion, it won't be streamed.

Fantasy Life is a great title to speak on Nintendo's TreeHouse Event - not as the big 3DS game to be spoken about at the roundtable.

 

[catmario]

Has anyone confirmed that this is not the Final Fantasy that was revealed in Jump today?

It's too soon to reveal at E3. Unless that title is TBA, It'll be difficult to reveal right now.

And This big announce is hold by Nintendo, so It won't be Final Fantasy.

 

[Scoops]

Mother or Metroid

The Robot Chicken Mother reference during Nintendo's digital event. The Star fox reference turned out to be true.

Metroid because everyone wants it.

 

[cluderi]

Please be a new Advance Wars...
Please be a new Advance Wars...
Please be a new Advance Wars...

Spoiler

I really need a new Advance Wars game to finally stop playing Fire Emblem

 

[DCKing]

Any reason I see so many people explicitly mentioning a 2D Metroid? Isn't a 3D Metroid more likely for the 3DS?

 

[Scooter155]

Did you see Zelda Williams last night?

So she was in the Smash Bros. tourney, right? That's weird, but OK. Someone said she made some kind of Majora reference, is that true?

 

[dmr87]

I just don't want to play a FPS game on the 3DS.

That was nice of them.

 

[Demon Lizardman]

2D Metroid with 3D graphics and maybe a 2.5d perspective at times?

 

[DXLelouch153]

Aonuma is basicly a troll
Zelda was holding Majoras Mask
subtitle could be titled literally
Zelda:Majoras Mask
shes done commercials, you honesly think she wouldnt be in on this trolling her dads robin fuckin williams for god sake

 

[jokkir]

I just don't want to play a FPS game on the 3DS.

I do.

Bring on Metroid Prime 3DS!

I'm leaning more towards Majora's Mask though on what's actually being revealed.

 

[tim1138]

Even as a huge Zelda fan, I really hope it's not a Majora remake. Something new please.

 

[Thatonemoor]

It better be Metroid we already have 2 Zelda games in development and we got a new 3DS Zelda last year :/

 

[Vyse The Legend]

So she was in the Smash Bros. tourney, right? That's weird, but OK. Someone said she made some kind of Majora reference, is that true?

She walked on stage with a giant Majora's Mask.

 

[Hylian7]

So she was in the Smash Bros. tourney, right? That's weird, but OK. Someone said she made some kind of Majora reference, is that true?

She came out holding a big Majora's Mask, set it on stage while she played, and then picked it up and took it back with her.

There was also that tweet that she was doing "something special" at E3.

That was the smash tourny
