Anyone else slightly expecting a Smash 3DS Japanese demo?

 

[Labrynian Rebel]

I just want my Shulk newcomer video.

That's literally the only thing I ask for from this Direct.

Japan only so little chances of that.

Only for Japan and bricks imported 3DS's for downloading outside Japan

Here's a lovely screen to look at for the next 18h or so!

3DS Direct? That must totally mean Mother3, 2DMetroid and Advance Wars.

I feel like there hasn't been a noteworthy 3DS game in forever, so looking forward to this. Maybe Nintendo can release some other games in Europe before Shin Megami Tensei IV comes out.

 

[Glass Rebel]

I don't think I could take Golden Sun 4. Release The Lost Age first so I have something to fall back on, in case it's like Dark Dawn.

Err... SMTIV comes out in September, there really is no game they could release on such a short notice. And besides, even if they could, they're not gonna reveal it during what seems to be JP exclusive Direct.

Talking about SMTIV, hope we get a date soon

 

[dampflokfreund]

So really no NoA/NoE direct, eh?

 

[Kandinsky]

A Twitter account called @nintendoamerico said a few days ago that a Direct was coming Friday. Some fell for it, including Yahoo and big dumb dumb BY2K. Ironically one is coming after all.

Omg LOL, man I missed it and now I'm sad.

haha

Yeah, seems that way.

 

[Cody_D165]

fuckkkkkk

I want a new Direct for America

 

[EulaCapra]

Don't leave the rest of the world hanging, NCL!

 

[ArchedThunder]

fuckkkkkk

Not counting the E3 digital event (because Nintendo said it wasn't one) the last regular Direct released outside of Japan was in February. Come on Nintendo, what's the deal?

 

[Drago]

Nice, I should be able to catch most of it before I have to leave for school tomorrow.

I have a gut feeling that they're gonna announce Rhythm Heaven 3DS.

 

[Busaiku]

Seriously, why does NoA not promote games.

 

[Zeyphersan]

No NoA direct is really really disappointing. Feed your fans, Nintendo

Looooooooooooooooool

 

[Koppai]

Meh the demo was pretty boring when I played a few days ago.

 

[Azuran]

I don't think I'm ready for F-Zero 3DS. I won't be able to handle that much goodness in the palm of my hands.

Region unlocking is happening this weekend on 3DS, thanks to homebrew

[L~A]

This is a parody animation. Well... no sh*t Sherlock, ha ha. Pretty cool though!

 

[Spinluck]

Don't even begin to do this to yourself, lol.

My philosophy: Expect no Smash news at all.

 

[Aβydoς]

There's going to be a trailer. Well, anyway, tomorrow's POTD will surely say something about it.

 

[Volotaire]

Not surprising we still haven't heard anything from NOA/NOE, since most international direct announcements follow a confirmation by the other two regions in the following hour.

 

[TheFLYINGManga_Ka]

Yay, time to get hype for more games we'll never likely see!

[Hibiki Kurosawa]

I don't know what to expect, but EOU2 coverage and Shulk announcement would be quite nice!

Edit: Wrong thread
haha

 

[Aostia]

expect 2ds. that's all.

 

[Reveirg]

Actually Nintendo owns the Glory of Heracles trademark:

http://www.trademarkia.com/glory-of-heracles-77749703.html

Don't know if that means they own at least a chunk/exclusive rights to the IP, but that seems to be more than a 3rd-party IP.

How was that game anyway? Picked it up cheap a while ago and I wanted to try it out because Yoshitaka Hirota composed the music. I'm grasping at every remnant of the Shadow Hearts team possible.

 

[Jigolo]

Nintendo 1DS incoming?

Perhaps they pulled a Natsume and trademarked the western title but Paon owns Herakles no Eikō outright.

 

[JB2448]

Is it possible that they'll just upload a Nintendo Direct Mini for NA/EU at the same time that the Japanese Direct airs, or am I grasping at the air?

Where's Paon?

They would've announced it by now

 

[Son Of D]

Won't be surprised if we get confirmation on the Japanese 2DS release. Maybe to tie in with Smash and MH4G.

I'd like a Smash newcomer but I have my doubts, especially if it's Japan only.

 

[Sgt.Pepper]

no smash bros. bros

 

[JB2448]

That's the thing. They don't really announce Minis. They just kind of upload them to YouTube. Sure, it's been a while since the last one, but that doesn't mean they're dead and gone.

 

[Hyperactivity]

It feels like its been such a long time since a proper ND.

Time to get the hype gifs back out

 

[Litri]

Majora's Mask finally???

 

[Aostia]

I am already tired of this comeback of Japan only events..fatal frame, pokken, ff explorer, kagura, directs..Nintdndo dropping the ball during iwata desease on the west..
