Nintendo Direct: new presentation announced for tomorrow

Anyone else hate leaks of things happening in a day? :/ Just seems bad form and they`re a bit hard to avoid, like the thread about MH Generations.

Hopefully there's enough new stuff in the Direct. MHG and the potential SNES on 3DS VC is great but not actually "new" at all in a sense (the VC is more new but not... all-new you know? :P).
The next Nintendo Direct will be announced 5 mins before it start to prevent leaks :p
 
WOW this thread has grown since I checked it this morning! Anyone willing to give a Cliffs Notes version of new info for me?
Most of the details in the upcoming Direct got leaked.

Guessing Star Fox Zero First Print will be an Amiibo Bundle, maybe an Arwing or Landmaster Amiibo? I think that I remember Miyamoto toying with the idea.

Heh.

But seriously, I expect a TPHD treatment in terms of amiibo pack-in. I get the feeling Nintendo doesn't want to be too stingy with the game itself.
 
Then again Capcom is likely publishing this, so really this isn't the Torte City were getting.

So far Nintendo publishes Monster Hunter in Europe, Capcom publishes in Japan and NA. Sincd that was an NOA leak, yeah, Torte City is probably something else.
 
I don't think I've ever in my life seen such a quick sequel announcement. They have to still have plans to get revenue out of the original, announcing Yo-Kai 2 now would be a terrible move.
They do, but YO-KAI WATCH has already got its Season 2 toys revealed and Season 2 of the anime is coming this summer just recently. And if Torte City isn't YO-KAI WATCH 2, I'd be slightly shocked.

- A leak claiming to have contained all the European specific content for the Direct was posted
- It was legitimized, to a degree, when a trademark listing for Monster Hunter Generations, a game which appeared on the leaked list, was filed after the leak was posted
- There may be additional games in the Direct. The 'Main Presentation' folder may include transnational news for all three regions
 
Yes! I assume Yo-Kai Watch in there is referring to Yo-Kai Watch 2 coming to the West?! I liked the first game and heard the second really improves on the gameplay

This is a Europe-specific list. Yo-Kai Watch isn't out here until next month, and the Direct was promoted here with a picture of Shibata wearing a Yo-Kai Watch.
 
It will be interesting to see what Federation Force looks like now.

If the leak is indeed correct and/or it appears, I wonder how they will market it and from what angle. It is going to take a lot of marketing power, on Nintendo's part, to overcome the large negativity which surrounded the initial announcement.
 
The amount of incoming E3 bs rumours and increase of people falling for it after for the first time in history a photographed doc might have actually been real...

Would not surprise me at all.
It'd probably get me to pre-order if I'm honest :x
Screw those, give me Wolf or a Wolfen.

You're most likely right.

Yeah I wouldn't mind nice Amiibo for each of cast members but I'd wager a guess that they're happy with the two Smash Amiibo representing the crew and doing a Amiibo of a vehicle. I heard that Falco isn't flying off shelves either but that might just be an EU thing.

:)
 
But what about the rumors of the NX that have also been leaking out? Maybe Nintendo ninjas are just getting old.
The only known NX Platform leak from a verified source was the Zelda U leak, but that's only because of a mention about reallocating the advertising budget to the NX version of Zelda U.

People keep saying this, and I still have no clue what that functionally means.
It's a joke about the Nintendo Ninjas being so busy with one job that they're neglecting their other duties.

Yes, I don't like this. But I am sure Nintendo has prepared sth more than those inside that photo.

I am going to avoid this thread until the streaming. The leaks are going to spoil the fun.
 
Star Fox Zero and Federation Force in the same Nintendo Direct make it kind of awful.

Have faith. We haven't heard from either game in a while now; Platinum on Star Fox is enough to keep me interested (wish Nintendo would put their damn logo on the box art!), and Federation Force is just a mountain of expected drama.
 
Sweet, this is right after my last midterm as well. My only real hope is that they mention Sun and Moon. I need details man.
 
This Direct is gonna be bad. Just wow. That leak is so boring. Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem.... Please come back and make me smile.
 
Thats it??

Ugh, seeing Federation Force still alive makes me sad. I was hoping that would be cancelled.

.


Fingers crossed they might have dumped the chibi design/improved the graphics...and included a 3D port of the original Metroid Prime. 8-9 months more dev time should have improved things, although given the limitations of the 3DS, I don't know why it wasn't a Wii U title in the first place (with the 3DS getting a sidescroller instead).

it's not impossible we get a western release date. rather, an american one, if that leak is for the EU. It wouldn't be a worldwide announcement since japan got #fe already;
 
Because Nintendo's doing everything in their power to keep the NX Platform a secret, at the expense of their 3DS & Wii U secrets.

Hmmm I can genuinely see that. And they are doing a damn good job at that. I mean, the only real leaks we've gotten is Zelda NX and I guess the Smash port if that counts.

I swear the Tomodachi Life and Mario Kart 8 Directs from 2 years ago were uploaded in their entirety completely out of nowhere. No livestream, no prior announcement, just pure stealth releases.

I remember because I saw people talking about Pink Gold Peach and Baby Rosalina and it took me too long to find out they weren't joking despite normally being on top of Nintendo news.
