So they'll be two Nintendo directs tomorrow? One for Euro and NA?
Nintendo Direct 5/17 4PM CEST, 7AM PST, focus on First Party Wii U Summer Titles
- Thread starter BY2K
- Start date
Japan also.
U R NOT E
Japan too. The EU and Japanese Directs are Wii U only while the NA Direct will feature some 3DS news as well, at least going by the announcements on twitter.

So this is not the true Nintendo E3 deliver?
Nintendo is so damn smart though, they've starved Wii U owners so much that we'll think any shitty crumb they give us is delicious!
Should be called the Nintendo Direct matrix though.

When you lay the bar on the ground, jumping over does become kind of trivial.
That being said, I am looking forward to Pikmin3 and Wonderful 101. Wii Fit U will get my wife excited, so I guess they can have all my money.
Here are a few simple things that would make tomorrow's Direct a win in my book:
- Show some new creatures for Pikmin 3, preferably boss monsters
- Give us a final logo, date and plot details for TW101 (I want character names already)
- Show new footage for TW101. If there are areas other than the city, it'd be nice to see them! :O
All of that, plus Iwata's adorable Marvin Martian accent.

In my book all of those things would make it fail.
The last Direct was hardly disappointing and people were hyped up for it in the same way.
Quit killing the fun of the HYPE TRAIN.
What? :lol

At least you can talk. Who are you?
Excuse the poor editing skills but I couldn't help get on the hype train (though this will probably be more suited to the next Nintendo Direct).

step 1. Please be excited
step 2. Please wait a little longer
step 3. Please understand

I'm just saying for my tastes, if that's all we got, I'd still be content.
I'll save all of my fanboy dreams for the June ND.

If there is no AAA highly atmospheric immersive Metroid game from Retro, I'll be disappointed.

I just want some good gif material whether it be some good games or Iwata/Miyamoto/Reggie shenanigans.
Erm, don't go into this ND hoping for such a thing. The one in June is for everything coming out fall and later.

What are your feelings on Star Fox?

I'm expecting an announcement of the first GBA VC games to be the only new information we receive, keeping expectations rock bottom for this one.
How do you feel about a new IP?
Excuse the poor editing skills but I couldn't help get on the hype train (though this will probably be more suited to the next Nintendo Direct).
You have a promising future. Continue to hone your craft.

Thread is getting out of control... People talking Star Fox, Retro Studios and X... this Nintendo Direct is only for summer releases people! There might be a surprise or two like W101 having a launch date announced within the next 3-4 months, or a surprise eshiop game, or feature the Summer update will provide.
I think thats how its gonna go down, this one will be an extended look and all their unreleased stuff focusing on their "b-team" efforts, the next one will bring the guns.

So Pikmin and Wii Fit. Doesn't sound exciting.
we got a good list of what to expect on the first page. trust me, our expectations are very much in check.
Wonder if this is a chance if Nintendo will announce the name of the next 3D Mario, and tease for E3 and than during the June Nintendo Direct we would obviously get a full showcase of it.
This is what I think of your list.

They already warned it was going to be this way. Yet people keep on being stupid.

W101 would guarantee this as ND of the year.

Yessir! Get this stuff out of the way and then on to the good stuff. The wait for the next ND will be tough.

Keeping my expectations exceedingly low for this one.
They are usually 36 minutes long.
Oh, yeah I know Castlevania, just didn't know that was related to it, and now that I think about it Gunstar sounds familiar.
