Nintendo Direct coming November 12 [Over]

Theyll talk about Ultra Smash, Amiibo Festival and Xenoblade the most, while leaving out games we actually wanna hear about like Pikmin 4.

Unless its like Ultra Smash getting DLC, then that would be fine.
 
Oh, Minecraft, my ancient foe. We meet again. Maybe I’ll finally understand what is so goddamn great about you this time. But I doubt it.

Bought this recently with the intention of finally figuring out why this thing is worth two billion dollars.

Closed the game 15 minutes later feeling like an old fart who is not with it anymore.
 

Meh it's clearly Minecraft, so I guess that's getting the most attention tomorrow.

You see, Pikmin 4 might not come out anytime soon(even if Miyamoto claims it's almost done) and we don't even know on which console it's coming out.
 
What has the DeNa partnership have to do with WiiU? 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?

I was/am hoping that the partnership with DeNa and the new account system will somehow tie into Wii U so making purchases tied to an account and not hardware. Thats what DeNa partnership has to do with Wii U

Yes I was hoping/expecting something other than F2P and yes F2P does minimize my pleasure with it, usually it's pretty egregious.

I'm tempering expectations if something like Minecraft coming to Wii U is the megaton headline they are going with.

Real question is what's going on with your post? Does any sort of criticism for Nintendo immediately spark you up into a frenzy?
 
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.

You might not go into the thread but when you get on gaf be prepared to see such thread titles as:
  • '5 months later and that's it?'
  • 'nintendo behind the times again'
  • 'where is _____, does nintendo not care anymore?"
and the current favorite
  • "nintendo should just go 3rd party, that's all they'll be good for'

I have it on mobile. I don't really 'get it'.

Tried the Ps4 demo and thought the same. But good for those that want it on Wii u, I guess
Also, that Notch tweet is a joke :p it's an old tweet and he's just saying the Wii U only had two games or something

That will happen, they reconfirmed it.

We don't know how it will play out.

Fair enough, but thats on you.

Maybe your expectations were too high to begin with. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Potentially: Unknown Smash DLC (likely including a character or two or more), Twilight Princess HD, and Minecraft is enough of a "headline" in any normal world.

Especially if they all come out within the next month or two...

minecraft doesn't matter to me, but it obviously matters to a lot of other people, and it's still selling...

The game is a lot more interesting with mods and playing with friends.
 
If Zelda "Wii U" gets anything it'll be a name for the sole purpose of giving people something else to call it besides Zelda "Wii U."

NX is getting revealed next year and it's about time they start distancing the next proper Zelda from the Wii U brand. That way we won't have to keep calling it Zelda U/NX.

I'm hyped either way. If they show it, it means I get to see new Zelda footage and it's most likely being dual-released. If they don't then we have hope that this could live up to it's true potential and be NX exclusive. It's unlikely, but there are so few "Wii U fans" to actually upset, and most would forget and have no hard feelings the instant they saw a name/release date/footage in all it's beautiful glory. This game has so much raw potential it makes me sick to my stomach with hype.

First of all, purchases are already tied to the account and not hardware, it's just the account which does not support linking more than one Wii U and one 3DS.

Secondly, did you miss news on Nintendo Account/My Nintendo? Because Nintendo and DeNA are actually bringing what you want on current Nintendo hardware, complete with cloud saves and cross-hardware saves.
 
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, yeah seems like a lot of people are passing that detail by. It's a pretty uncharacteristic leak from Nintendo I guess no one really expected it.

The original thread has some screencaps in it I believe, but I can't really go looking for it right now.

Between Minecraft and Nintendo making mobile games, I feel as though the Prophecy of Abraham Simpson had finally come true for me:

You need to obtain the innocence of a child to get it. :p

I don't get it either.

My daughter, who just turned 10, never got it either. She'd rather play Final Fantasy IV and Kingdom Hearts and Kirby.

It's virtual Lego where you can build whatever you want. That's the appeal.

The weird thing is that I loved the fuck out of Lego when I was a kid. I guess life has taken away my inner child. *plays sad violin tune*
 
What if unbeknownst to us Minecraft guy won the Smash Ballot by landslide?? I mean he is popular.

I don't think Sakurai would go after most votes. This is the guy who added Duck Hunt duck and dog. Thats what makes me actually think Minecraft guy would have a chance, because he would add something new.

And well, money.
 
I'm actually surprised by how many people want the next Zelda installment to be entirely removed from WiiU and brought over to NX.

I mean, weren't there Kingdom Hearts fans that bought a PS3 specifically just to play the next installment in the series, and that never happened. Are those fans happy KH3 skipped an entire generation just to be on better hardware.

I guess the main difference is the low Wii U install base compared to that of the PS3. Less people will feel the burn if it takes the leap??

EDIT: I wouldn't mind the game being on NX at all, but also wouldn't be dissapointed at all if it only came to Wii U, so I'm just trying to figure out how others feel about this

most probably just want the meltdowns and nothing else tbh.


...though I'm not sure why it's being brought up here. I haven't read all of the thread, but has that been mentioned here?

See, I never got that. When I was a kid I loved Legos. My daughter still loves Legos. I use to build all kinds of crap in second life. I can lose a whole afternoon building stages in Mario maker. Teraria was my jam . If they ever finish Starbound, I'll be all over it.

There's just something about Minecraft specifically that flips the Nope switch in my brain.

They weren't happy. I certainly was not happy at the lack of KH3 on PS3, neither was my cousin or my uncle. It's why I hold some pessimistic views of Square and their delays going on forever and still don't expect KH3 any time soon.

Id just think he would add Minecraft guy due to his bad taste.
 
Banjo-Kazooie has always been my dream character pick for Smash. Getting a Microsoft character in the game only for it to be Steve would just wreck me. lol
