Nintendo Direct coming November 12 [Over]
- Thread starter killercow
- Start date
I checked with other games to make sure its year-month-day so it definitely refers to November 12th.
Example: Mario Party 10 -> 2015-03-20
Your list is like a years worth of directs... Minecraft is the least interesting thing on it but seems like the most likely to happen. I was hoping TP would be a "available right now on the eshop", but no chance after this Minecraft leak.

Notch dropping dem hints https://twitter.com/notch/status/500015083872083968
What you're saying is...the X in NX stands for Xbox? Nintendo bought the Xbox brand.
That is a good point XD! I could see that being stretched across two more directs:
-Third party localization announcements for 3DS: February Direct
-Third party Wii U Support + HD Remasters for Wii U/3DS/New 3DS: April Direct
-Highlighting Direct - Focus on Wii U Line Up plus a teaser for the NX: May Direct

I still dont see why y'all expecting a twilight princess hd..
That's one, though. What are the other(s)? TPHD? NES Remix 3?
Data miners found a logo and title in the eShop database, and Nintendo has released updated promotional art for that game's Link. Unless this is an epic troll, it's all but confirmed.
Thank God that Minecraft was leaked. I would have been disappointed if that was their big reveal. I couldn't care less about that franchise. Now I have lowered expectations. Hopefully TP HD turns out to be real and we will get some Zelda updates, unless they are saving them for the VGA.
Yep, Minecraft and Twilight Princess HD. The filler continues.
please let there be something else
Microsoft would get so much money from the Amiibo sales.

I just dont think that constitutes an hd re release, I mean yeah thats great if it does but people should hold those expectations. Lol
Now to see if it's a good surprise or one that we didn't need lol
Yeah. I already have it for PC so it will be an underwhelming announcement for me.
Yes, doesn't change the fact they they use the year-month-day format I mentioned.

Nah, it does because the title on the eshop listing is "Twilight Princess HD".
I was disappointed to see anything leaked, but now that you put it this way, I agree. I'd definitely rather know going in that this is a part of the Direct and potentially even the last big surprise of it, so I can temper my expectations a bit in that regard. Good point, thank you.
If minecraft is banjo's ticket into smash I won't complain lol.

The name of the entry is literally "Twilight Princess HD"
I honestly thought that minecraft was already on the Wii U -_- Wondering if Nintendo have anything surprising to bring to the table or if they will let the Wii U fade away slowly. I was a bit optimistic in hoping for something decent from their partnership with DeNA but I guess it's just going to be free-to-play garbage with a coat of Nintendo paint on it.
Realistically if this Direct is a sh*t show how many more directs are we likely to see before the much rumoured NX reveal at E3?

They won't.
They're expecting:
"Zelda U is 2016....JANUARY 1 2016! Comes with TPHD bundled for 32$ and a lock of Reggie's hair"
They've got to reveal NX before E3. Preferably in a February/March Direct.
Did you miss the part where there was a TP icon linked to a title ID on a Nintendo server with the text "TWILIGHT PRINCESS HD" ?

Can I just buy a lock of Reggie's hair?

Damn PEGI spoiling the surprise for everyone. Seriously, how many people actually tried to predict this one?
Also, a quick reminder Microsoft was never opposed to bringing their games to Nintendo hardware: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_video_games_owned_by_Microsoft_Studios_on_Nintendo_platforms. Hovewer, this will be the first case of Microsoft games coming to Nintendo home console (not handheld), as well as the first case of Microsoft publishing them without the help of THQ or somebody else.

But how many would consider it a good surprise for a Direct? Minecraft is on pretty much everything at this point and even a toaster of a PC could probably run it. I'm glad it was leaked so I can temper my expectations.

So, minecraft U. Day one!!!
Reggie's hair would be in a limited premium first-print edition. Comes with a silver version too.

Lmao yes I did miss that logo. Does someone have a pic or a screan cap of it? Anyway, if it does release I might actually finish it. Only zelda game I havent finished.
haha,
but honestly, people are already getting predisappointed in thread lol. Tomorrows gonna be bad.
I won't be able to watch it live, so I might be avoiding the thread altogether.
Stuff I read is that DeNA will have some F2P, in-house Nintendo mobile games will more often be the normal pay model we're accustomed to. The Miitomo thing is a passive app for a different part of the market and games coming after will be the stuff people are looking forward to the most.
It's about what I was expecting.
DeNA is also helping Nintendo with other things as well.

Doesn't read OPs, especially not his own
But it wasent on there for months, it being in the eshop listings meant that it was releasing incredibly soon.

Well, it's completely random but still something we actually want; therefore, it's a typical Nintendo Direct surprise.
What has the DeNa partnership have to do with WiiU? Why is Miitomo just a Nintendo paint? Did you seriously expect something else than F2P? Does that somehow minimize/maximize your pleasure with it?
And why are you automatically going for shitshow? Seriously, what is going on in your post?
Well, even with TPHD and Minecraft Wii U Edition alone, it would be better than a lot of other directs. At least better than the digital event of June.
It would be totally fine. I expected pratically nothing for Wii U apart from the titles they already announced before. The big stuff is clearly coming on NX, but those two games would really make me happy.
Jesus, I love Twilight Princess too much.

Nintendo and their fucking limited editions...why are they so anti-consumer?
Yes, specially when they themselves state what the Direct will be about, people shouldn't expect "big" surprises just because. I mean, it could happen, but it's very very very unlikely.
Also Minecraft amiibo you say? As in a Steve amiibo and/or Minecraft-like Nintendo characters? Either way, the only possible outcome of such:

That dream died at E3. Heck, it was probably dead by last E3.
At least we got Prime Trilogy?
Bayonetta 3, innit.

There's something also neat about that page.
