Nintendo Direct coming November 12 [Over]

Aren't they? Interesting considering they only have 123 emplyees as per Wikipedia. The Tokyo seems to have worked on Skyward Sword(the studio that developed Xenoblade Chronicles X), while the Kyoto studio worked on A Link Between Worlds, Pikmin 3, Animal Crossing: New Leaf, Splatoon and Animal Crossing Happy Home Designer.



Announced on January of 2013(in the very same Direct XCX was shown for the first time, I think) and it released on September of 2013, when it was announced there were a few screenshots only, not actual video until months later, if I recall correctly.


Windwaker announced in late January and came out in late September(in NA and Japan).. 8 months.

Majora's mask was announced last november and came out in Feb, which is only 3 months.

I'm guessing IF we get TP HD announced, it will come out sometime in Feb to summer time.

Thanks.

I still have a feeling that Zelda Wii U won't come out in 2016.
 
I can't usually see any difference between an HD video of a game and the game on my screen so it prolly doesn't make much difference.

I really don't see why what I said is so controversial. Freaking Infamous SS on PS4 has rough spots, Zelda sure as hell will unless they go extremely surreal with the artstyle like a Wind Waker or Okami.

We're done here. You're way out of your depth, buddy.
 
People need to realize that NX version of Zelda Wii U will be... well, just a quick-and-dirty NX port of Wii U game, enhanced just slightly and being made just for the sake of selling more units of hardware and software. It won't push the NX capabilities, neither will it make the new Zelda better.

You will end up being correct.

Why is this still 16 hours to go :/

For sure. Xenoblade has a couple but they're placed in spots you'll not stick around for long periods like the hangar, but the rest of the over world looks fantastic and where they put all their energy towards.

I think it's pretty obvious that Twilight Princess HD will be used to 'tide us over' in 2016 until Zelda Wii U / Zelda NX arrives in 2017. Could well be wrong but that's my sense.
 
He's from Gamefreak tho, so why would he know/care about other companies announcing or talking about their projects?


This just popped up on my Twitter.

Spongebob is never not relevant.
 
Zelda U in 2017 would be crazy considering it was originally promised for 2015. I know Zeldas go through delays a lot but we had a promised year and to miss it by two years would be nuts. I have a feeling the only reason its being held back is to have a killer ap for NX launch, much like TP for Wii. The NX must be coming by next Christmas. TP HD is just easy money and easy filler, not some hold me over because Zelda U is still a years away. At least that's my opinion anyway.
 
Hoping for and expecting Twilight Princess HD and an update on Zelda U at the same time. Would love some Star Fox footage to see how the extra months of polish have paid off and of course unannounced titles like Pikmin 4.

Hashimoto has retweeted the Direct announcement - Star Fox Zero update is a given, I think.

I think they announced Zelda Wii U way earlier than they would have because it was doing poorly and they wanted to build hype. I am thinking at least 8 months earlier.

I believe so, though admittedly it's also hard to tell with him too cause he loves to retweet Nintendo related things and is a big fan of the company. He's a fan of a lot of things and retweets a lot of things he's super interested in. But seeing as the JP direct will talk about at least a couple of titles up to spring, I can easily see that and TP HD.

The Splatoon DLC image is perfect.

It's pretty clear the release date for Zelda U is whatever the release date for the NX is. If the NX was not launching in 2016 I really doubt they would hold it back for so long.
 
Why would they not talk about Star Fox Zero, it's like the only major Wii U game left that isn't a remake.
Wellll... technically not a remake.
 
I really want to get back into playing splatoon so I hope they have some cool stuff. My save file got corrupted and I lost interest for a while but I really do love the game.

Wow that sucks. I'm still dreading the day a big game for me gets a save file corrupted or I experience a game breaking glitch.

I don't think that's obvious at all.

It's Zelda's 30th anniversary. They're not keeping it to Twilight Princess HD and Hyrule Warriors Bad Version. I'm not saying Zelda Wii U absolutely cannot be delayed, I am saying your reasoning is full of holes.

There's a huge difference between being realistic and being a sadsack that just tries to maintain low expectations for themselves by trying to create inane narratives.

"Zelda will be delayed" makes sense as a theory.

"Twilight Princess HD obviously exists because they're going to delay Zelda Wii U and this is their way of distracting people!" is silly nonsense.

Playable Octolings
amiibo support
New stage
Two new weapons
At least a dozen new Gear
New Ranked mode


Now THAT would be a way to double up Christmas sales with an advertising push

Guys, we will get TPHD this or next week if you ask me... and Zelda U next year, they wont have 30th anniversary without a new game...

But I got a question for you guys, what if you buy Zelda U and have it connected to MyNintendo and once NX hits you get Zelda U for NX for free (or a small amount) I think that way nobody should get mad :P

Hopefully the new Nintendo hardware has cloud save functionality from day one.

Yeah, that would be amazing and would really push some sales too.

Yep. I don't believe they'll miss the 30th anniversary as it's a very huge milestone.
 
My prediction for the Nintendo Direct: Smash ballot results (probably Wolf, Shovel Knight and K. Rool). New amiibo line (probably for Mario Tennis) and the big reveal at the end....... Metroid Dread.
 
So is there a chance for Zelda U? I know it was delayed to 2016, but was it ever said anywhere that we would not see it before 2016?
Like could we get a glimpse tomorrow?
 
Not sure if this was posted yet

Can anyone confirm this?

I just want one announcement to not get leaked.

Ryu being in the game was amazing but I really hate that he was spoiled just because seeing him on the stream for the first time would've genuinely made me lose my mind.

Shovel Knight was already leaked

I really doubt Shovel Knight is actually in this for a variety of reasons.

Except this time nobody knows for certain who it could be right?
