Inaba and Kamiya have been talking about doing ROM checks on the game since the start of Golden Week, two weeks ago. Given Kamiya's talk about length of the game, and also tweeting about hating deadlines I would say it's just about done on their end. He also said that he was switching back and forth between Bayo 2 and 101 the other day. A lot if that went unnoticed because most of it was tweeted only in Japanese.

There are titles on Wii U releasing this summer? So we are getting footage of

- Game & Wario
- Pikmin 3 + official releasedate (Aug 2, 2013?)
- Wonderful 101 + official releasedate (September?)
- Wii U Party (September?)

 

[Neiteio]

If we don't get a TW101 release date and/or surprise announcement from Reggie, I'll take goofy-ass gifs of Iwata as a consolation prize, Nintendo.

 

[Persona86]

Salt + water will get you killed my friend.

But so worth it.

 

[Domstercool]

SMT is July 16th.

Bravely Default is 2014.

For America, sure, but us UK/EU peeps have no date but Autumn for SMT IV and 2013 for Bravely Default. >.<

 

[Boss Doggie]

So I take it Japan Wii U Direct is 11pm on their side?

 

[StreetsAhead]

So I take it Japan Wii U Direct is 11pm on their side?

Yep. All three are simultaneous, though.

 

[The_Intruder]

"*Some of the footage shown in this broadcast may be subject to rating restrictions."

So mature title? Bayonetta 2?

 

[SoulPlaya]

Sounds like this is just for already announced stuff. Big one will be in June.

 

[Neiteio]

A nice TW101 logo would be appreciated. Surely the currently font is simply placeholder.

 

[Kimawolf]

"*Some of the footage shown in this broadcast may be subject to rating restrictions."

Hmm DQX maybe? all online games have the same thing.. And if it is Bayo 2.. WOW.

 

[Rocky]

Don't we already have dates for everything launching in the summer?
At least on 3DS.

I think Mario Golf still doesn't have a release date.

Yes, this all I want to hear tomorrow. Hyped as hell for a new Mario Golf.

My ready is body.

Ready is my body

 

[etrain911]

I understand if there's barely any 3ds love given after the last Direct but as someone getting a new XL when Animal Crossing drops....I can only wish.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Then 10pm here.

I wonder if it means more Bayo2 footage.

 

[Neiteio]

"*Some of the footage shown in this broadcast may be subject to rating restrictions."

"May be subject" --> simple stock disclaimer given lack of ESRB ratings for certain games.

Dammit streets. why didn't you make a thread and translate it for us?! =/

I hope so. Its kinda depressing every 101 trailer ending: "here it comes... name of the game in arial or something!!!"

 

[wrowa]

It would be glorious if Bayonetta 2 is a surprise September release, though. It would also give me a sparkle of confidence that Nintendo has something even better to show at E3.

 

[BY2K]

Probably already posted, but I love it.

Yep, completely missed it. Someone shall do the thread.

No way do they release W101 and Bayonetta within the same six months.

Hell, I imagine Platinum was uneasy about Anarchy Reigns and Rising releasing so close and those are different publishers.

Platinum has a dedicated base that will pick up their games but there needs to be some breathing room there.

 

[Jaruru]

SUMMER TITLESSSSSSSSSS

 

[Busaiku]

Probably already posted, but I love it.

What show is this again.
General Hospital or something?

I'm not expecting many big things from this direct (just Summer games after all) but this would be a nice surprise. I'm still hoping that they put the first game on E-Shop for like 20 bucks.

 

[StreetsAhead]

My apologies. In my defense, they were spread out over two weeks.

I have to go to bed now too. Its 1am and I have to up for work. It may be pointless making a thread with the Direct so soon though.

 

[colui]

Can't wait for Iwata holding a watermelon.

No Fit U then? They even had a focus on it with the Miiverse community functions in one of the 2013 Directs...

bayonetta 2 will be a early (first half) 14 release together with smash and project x imho.
or, if one between mario3d and kart will not be a fall 13 game, with one of those two (pushing back smash to fall 14)

 

[Aostia]

SORRY

 

[Outtrigger888]

Can't wait for Iwata holding a watermelon.

To symbolize the season as well as the growing strength of Nintendo?

If that's the case, I expect a big pumpkin in the fall...

 

[Hero of Legend]

When is this in EST?

 

[Busaiku]

Can't wait for Iwata holding a watermelon.

Will Mr. Miyamoto smash it?

When is this in EST?

10

 

[Outtrigger888]

Will Mr. Miyamoto smash it?

10

Yes, with his head, all while having a big goofy smile on his face.

Even though this time we will actually only see a new IP, which is W101 and which will also be ignored in every ,,lol no new nintendo ip'' discussion ever. as usual.

Okay ={

 

[dark_inferno]

I only want to know SMT4 release date. The Wii U doesnt bother me. It has no games.

 

[lunchwithyuzo]

I'd still like Bayo 1 CE on Wii U too. Would be a nice holdover until the sequel's ready next year and an easy way to start priming the userbase.

No Fit U then? They even had a focus on it with the Miiverse community functions in one of the 2013 Directs...

Speculation's been Fit U got pushed to Q4/holiday.

 

[hatchx]

I have some high hopes:


1. New Super Luigi isn't too expensive and comes out before August
2. Pikmin 3 has multiplayer
3. W101 comes out before September
4. VC gets a slap-in-the-face improvement

 

[Mockingbird]

HYPED!!!

 

[lunchwithyuzo]

4. VC gets a slap-in-the-face improvement

16bit Summer?

3. W101 comes out before September

All I really want from the vc at the moment is to be able to hit one button to create a save state without pausing the game. It messes with the flow having to go into the menu.

If you were talking about more vc games, I definitely want that.

I think these are pretty reasonable

 

[Linkhero1]

Forgot about the NSMB U DLC. If they haven't already given it a release date then I can see it being a summer thing.

 

[giggas]

Was trying so hard not to get hyped for this but god damn this thread.

Also that General Hospital GIF made my damn day.

 

[Defunkled]

If the entire Nintendo Direct was just Iwata coming out and saying "The Wonderful 101 will be available this July" I would be entirely satisfied. What I played of it at PAX East was incredible.

 

[GameE]

Why do people still call NDs a conference?

 

[BY2K]

My body is "Only For" ready.
