What's with infuriating posters and always ending things with a smiley face?

I'm sick of this

I do not endorse Roboleon's post and in fact think he's a terrible person.

Everybody too busy with NX and missing out on the real story right here.

Steve Youngblood v Roboleon: Dawn of Hype

 

[Lights and Waves]

NX + RDR2 trailer would certainly classify tomorrow as a huge day.

Can someone explain what the R2D2 trailer is?

 

[JimJamJones]

C'mon dude - you gotta use the bigger one for the bigger hype!

 

[gafneo]

God, I know it isn't happening but imagine the RDR2 trailer in an NX reveal date announcement video. The reactions would be absolutely bonkers.

Red Dead is in the Fall. Plenty of time to announce an NX port. If no NX reveal this week, at least there is a good ol' R* one.

 

[McHuj]

Which weekend? Of which month? Of which year?

Well, Emily Rogers just tripled down on "big NX news still coming this week."

I am not guessing Friday.

Is ShockingAlberto in the know?

Thanks, so it's friday, thats all i wanted to know

Nah. I'm pretty much tearing up my cue cards and just saying "fuck it" at this point. Perhaps I should just look for some Simpsons memes to post.

Simpsons is always good. And I'm sitting here trying to prepare a lecture while keeping an eye on this thread. I hope I don't end up with schizophrenia by the end of the week.

Twitter and YouTube will fold soon too.

A royal flush. Question is, is there a wildcard in this game.

 

[DownGrader]

Is ShockingAlberto in the know?

He said he doesn't know the reason for the comeback and doesn't really want to check.

 

[DMONKUMA]

A confirmation that the codename is NX and it's coming in March 2017? Because that's pretty much all the official info we have until now.

I was think more of Nintendo confirming whether or not the NX is a hybrid/handheld scenario or if any other rumor is true.

Idk. I can't imagine a big blowout.

 

[Skittzo0413]

Red Dead is in the Fall. Plenty of time to announce an NX port. If no NX reveal this week, at least there is a good ol' R* one.

A port is one thing, an initial reveal trailer in an Nintendo presentation is a whole other.

 

[Rogue Agent]

This is really risky of her. I hope there's something this week, if only for her sake.

 

[OdysseusVA]

when this falls through, could the mods ban those who continue feeding this?

thanks

What a day. What a lovely day!

Y'all ain't ready

I'm ready for either way.

Sure. But two things. First, the stakes of a presidential campaign are much, much higher than setting the record straight on a internet user that makes video game predictions. Secondly, again, my issue is not that one needs to completely bite their tongue if they see a questionable source being hoisted up as unassailable, but that I think there's a point where criticism stops being constructive and starts just adding more attention. Also, people tend to overplay their hand when discussing her. She's had info before that has been correct. I'm not saying that this has happened all or even most of the time, but overreaching about how she's the most awful pundit who has never been right about anything just invites others to defend her record on the things that she's gotten right.

My Trump example probably wasn't the best analogy, but video game stuff is really important to a lot of us, and she still deserves criticism for misleading people even if it is just about dumb games. And there is plenty of criticism that doesn't involve calling her awful or evil.

Anyway, I don't want to talk about this anymore, it's hype time.

 

[ASIS]

Is ShockingAlberto in the know?

Yes, but like every insider he's been wrong as well. Having said that, I trust him.

 

[llehuty]

Chances of Emily crashin GAF when she says it's coming soon?

 

[DarkChronic]

in the famous words of a previous poster ITT:

"gaf i am ascending"

 

[Stitch]

C'mon dude - you gotta use the bigger one for the bigger hype!

I did and then it somehow turned into a small one. Should've uploaded it somewhere else 😏

Friday Horror!

"We know people are interested in what is going on with the NX. We have not delayed the NX, please be patient. We'll be saying more soon"

 

[con-ca-te-nate]

So Friday?!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[BGBW]

Well, Emily Rogers just tripled down on "big NX news still coming this week."

 

[Nibel]

Shocking fact: there hasn't been a single insider who was 100% correct all the time

[Trojita]

She either does know something concrete or she is getting too close to the sun.

If anything does come out there might be arguments on whether it is "big news".

We are steadily approaching when a reveal should take place, saying we'll get news soon doesn't make you a prophet. Saying it will happen by this Friday is different. It's a little outside of the norm for Emily to be that specific.

ShockingAlberto's mistake was pretty big though. But I'm sure he has learned his lesson.

Was that the 3D printed NX controller?

What happen if before the day ends she just tweets...."Just Kidding ".

What would you're reactions be?

 

[Calm Mind]

I am not guessing Friday.

lol apparently even the mods are on board. The hype train truly is going off now!



If it is not friday then it's only.....

Shit... We are gonna sit here in the direct timeline tomorrow yet again aren't we?

Thursdayton it is, folks.

THURSDAY CONFIRMED

So it's happening tomorrow.

keep the flow going. Don't ruin the fun.

Guys it's a trick answer. He's not guessing friday.

HE KNOWS IT'S FRIDAY.

WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?

What a day. What a lovely day!

If you just keep watching Fury Road, the NX will be revealed before you know it.

Have we asked him about the NX yet?

We need a countdown!

I am off tomorrow, news pls.

 

[Vyse The Legend]

Guys it's a trick answer. He's not guessing friday.

HE KNOWS IT'S FRIDAY.

That's kinda how I read it, too. Haha.

 

[gafneo]

A port is one thing, an initial reveal trailer in an Nintendo presentation is a whole other.

That would be nice. I'd rather reserve it for NX rather than be at Gamestop reserving for PS4 and then switching it over at the nick of time before release.

 

[hemo memo]

CBOAT was for a while but then

RIP

Speaking of CBOAT where is he/she when we need him/her the most.

 

[Skittzo0413]

We are steadily approaching when a reveal should take place, saying we'll get news soon doesn't make you a prophet. Saying it will happen by this Friday is different. It's a little outside of the norm for Emily to be that specific.

Don't forget there are at least two other people who have access to insider information that have been saying there will be news this week. Nothing has changed since Monday, except I guess the confidence of her claims.

ShockingAlberto's mistake was pretty big though. But I'm sure he has learned his lesson.

I'm still curious about that. He said someone "confirmed" the 3D printed controller to him, using "confirmed" in quotes. It could be a similar situation to the Gameinformer (?) editor who heard there might be portions that are touch screen only, which the EG rumor has also reported.

This is all off topic though.
