Honestly disappointed since we need a proper Wii U Direct and not these singular ones.

At least they're on a roll at the moment with this being the 3rd in what, a month? Hopefully with TGS not even having begun yet, more will be coming.

Like a Fall Conference, hey remember those Nintendo? The New 3DS Direct vastly decreases the odds of that though, since that would've been the place and it's where the DSi was unveiled in 2008.

HAPPENING

 

[Oni Link 666]

I work during the direct

Call in sick. Get your priorities straight, man.

 

[Son Of D]

What "specials" could they reveal? I mean they revealed at E3 that the game will include Bayo 1 and the Nintendo costumes. We also know about the online coop. Do you think they will announce anything new?

-Bayo in Smash
-New Platinum Games project???

Edit: But I'm also kind of disappointed. Was also hoping for a genera/Wii U direct. I've actually seen/heard enough, almost too much, about this game.

More details about Bayonetta 1's extra content (if there is any).
Details about game mechanics for those new to Bayonetta.
News of a demo (should there be one).
Special Edition details (if there is one).

 

[Zeyphersan]

Call in sick. Get your priorities straight, man.

Nah, I need the money so I can actually BUY Bayonetta 2, which seems more important. Marginally.

 

[zroid]

WHY DID I SCHEDULE A HAIR APPOINTMENT FOR THE SAME TIME AS THIS DIRECT

 

[AcademicSaucer]

I work during the direct

Just today i got the ok to work from home, and now this direct is announced, i love my life

 

[The Xtortionist]

Never played Bayonetta and I'm so hyped. This package is insane! I'm not ready...

 

[Mlatador]

*NintendoGAF when they fully reveal the Bayonetta 2 Special Edition(s) tomorrow*

PLEASE

 

[Revven]

Man, this sucks because I don't get out of class until 5:45 PM and probably won't get home in time to watch it live.

Looks like I'll have to watch the archive/Youtube upload. :/

Looking forward to it all the same, though! Wish Bayo was coming out sooner... it being at the end of October is laaaame.

 

[Ninjimbo]

I want to keep my blackout promise, but it's a Bayonetta direct. Shit.

Might as well watch I guess.

 

[JDSN]

You better run, don't wait here I'll come, no
The fuel in my fire won't run dry,
It burns bright
And you better hide, I came for a fight, yeah
Until Tomorrow Is Mine!

My body is ready! I hope Kamiya presents it.

 

[Locamotable]

This is my first direct as a member of gaf.

Hold me.

 

[Zeyphersan]

You better run, don't wait here I'll come, no
The fuel in my fire won't run dry,

Every time this song is linked I need to listen

It's too damn good

 

[maxcriden]

Max doge failing at life right here.

I wear that failure proudly

 

[Zubz]

More details about Bayonetta 1's extra content (if there is any).
Details about game mechanics for those new to Bayonetta.
News of a demo (should there be one).
Special Edition details (if there is one).

My guess is we're getting all of those, especially alternate costumes for Bayonetta 1 (I'm hoping to see a Wonderful 101 one where her Weaves are more powerful based on how much health she has left, and I'd honestly be willing to bet there's a Zero Suit Samus skin, too, if I wasn't sharing the blessing of Uncle Jesse alongside Neiteio [Bet wears off when Smash 4 comes to the Wii U].

Still hoping for a Smash reveal (She's my most wanted between Ridley and Wonder Red), but it's been less than a week since we all got Shulked; we're not even getting a veteran, let alone a surprise 4th 3rd Party. Or at the very least, Kamiya directing this again; I honestly liked him more than Iwata, and he deserves some rest anyway.

Either way, I have class until 6:45 that day (It starts at 5), so I just need to make sure I don't check my phone from then until I get home, seeing how I tend to get at least one spoileriffic message from a friend every time something cool's announced. But until then... We wait.

This is my first direct as a member of gaf.

Hold me.

Welcome! And barring the Japan Only one, this is my first as well, so I'm with you there.

 

[Goldenmoney]

I get off work at 2 pacific time. Fuck yeah.

And it won't interfere with the seahawks-packers game. Fuck yeah.

 

[Coda]

I'd be happy for you guys who haven't bought a Wii U yet if there was a special edition console but I doubt it if they haven't announced it at this point. Maybe a bundle but I don't think Nintendo thinks Bayonetta 2 is a special edition console seller. Not trying to be a naysayer just realistically don't think they'll be anything like that.

Honestly all I want is a demo right now.

 

[Dreavus]

WHY DID I SCHEDULE A HAIR APPOINTMENT FOR THE SAME TIME AS THIS DIRECT

Gotta be looking fabulous to get that Bayonetta 2 info.

 

[TDLink]

Excited for a Bayonetta direct, but also a bit disappointed we aren't getting a big general Direct.

 

[Alaskanbullworm]

We all know what's going to happen at the end of the direct....

Can't wait to watch this, already made plans not to do anything else at that time.

 

[jackal27]

If Kamiya hosts this direct, I will lose it.

 

[Hot Coldman]

maybe this will be where they show off the Birdo costume

 

[XDDX]

Confirmed for Japan too.

[chadboban]

YAAAAAAAS!! Cant wait!

 

[ShockingAlberto]

Confirmed for Japan too.

https://twitter.com/Nintendo/status/506959185976643584

I imagine it would pretty much have to be, considering it comes out there in like 14 days

 

[StreetsAhead]

It's at 7AM though. Weird timing. Afternoon in the US, morning in Japan. Timing doesn't really seem to suit getting many views anywhere. Well, Europe.

 

[SweetDonuts]

Sweet, I was hoping it'd be an overall Nintendo direct, but I'm very pleased with a Bayonetta 2 one.

 

[Oni Link 666]

Is Cereza 1ft tall or is Bayonetta 10ft tall?

 

[Mlatador]

This is my first direct as a member of gaf.

Hold me.

LOL? Is that a chicken with boxershorts?? XD

Oh yeah, and... have fun!

 

[Smiles and Cries]

we always have to wake up at 7am for Japan Directs
about time for a switch

maybe Nintendo thinks Japan will not but this game much so

anywho, not many calls for Media Blackouts I see

I bet this direct spoils a good bit

 

[InsuRn]

We all know what's going to happen at the end of the direct....

Can't wait to watch this, already made plans not to do anything else at that time.

I was like, hell yeah Bayonetta in Smash, then I saw the dog... Well played, sir !

I'll totally watch the Direct live

Spoiler

after work

.

We though the W101 Direct did, but it was edited in such a way the trailer was downright misleading about how stuff happens.

I think they'll do the same thing here.

 

[foxuzamaki]

oh shhhhhiiiiiiit
wait 3PM PT is like...7PM central right? I'll be at work

 

[-Horizon-]

 

[Smiles and Cries]

well I hope we get some shocking news relating to Bayonetta

so I can't miss this

just hope this sells W101 was a damn enjoyable game

 

[Papercuts]

Dammit, that's right when I start my night class.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

oh shhhhhiiiiiiit
wait 3PM PT is like...7PM central right? I'll be at work

5pm central would be my take on it

 

[XaosWolf]

What a good night to be at work! Not in the US, but info on Bayo 2 is info on Bayo 2. =D

 

[-Horizon-]

Looking at the time this airs, I'm gonna miss it by an hour because I'm on my commute at that time. Nice ._.

 

[foxuzamaki]

5pm central would be my take on it

Maybe I will be able to see it

 

[crinale]

It's like 7 a.m. in Japan. I don't think they're really aiming this to Japanese audience, oh well.

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

We all know what's going to happen at the end of the direct....

Can't wait to watch this, already made plans not to do anything else at that time.

Lmfao, I would be ok with that

 

[Hikami]

I know nothing about the Bayonetta series.. maybe this will get me to buy it

 

[SenorArdilla]

I know nothing about the Bayonetta series.. maybe this will get me to buy it

Do it. Nintendo is packing in the first game as well.

 

[BakedYams]

I hope they'll tell us the release date multiple times, in case I'll forget it during the Direct.

I really hope they don't do this again... I got nauseous hearing it over and over and over again.

 

[Riki]

I know nothing about the Bayonetta series.. maybe this will get me to buy it

You get the two best action games ever in a single package.

 

[Capra]

So pissed NA isn't getting this until a month later. Would've made an excellent birthday present.

Oh well, maybe I'll settle for a birthday pre-order. As someone who never had a 360 I'm so ready to play the best version of the first game for the first time ever.

 

[zroid]

It still amazes me that we're getting Bayo 1 packed in for free and on a disc. Talk about the ultimate EverythingWentBetterThanExpected.jpg
