Would be pretty cool if as DLC Smash had packs of say 4 characters from (as an example) say DC Comics in collaboration with Warner Bros or similar types of deals.

This is practically the same thing as an e3 conference, why were people going insane when ninty wasn't doing it at e3?

Because people can't read.

 

[Beth Cyra]

Because people refuse to read.

Fixed

 

[BassForever]

That's definitely not true. In fact, Tharja has never topped any Japanese popularity polls as the most popular.

Wasn't she the most popular gen 1 female character in the series? Hence why we got the bikini shot in the summer dlc

Cause it ain't live and on a stage.

How we 'posed to be hype without live on stage shenanigans? Nobody gonna cry for a Zelda Twilight Vamps announcement on a Nintendo Direct. IDK, bro, they should just release a new console now. There's no point.

A lot of people on the internet misread or didn't read at all but looked at the reactions thought Nintendo said they aren't going to E3 this year, and a lot of people think E3 Press Conference = All of E3.

Which it is not, at least the message is getting out now that Nintendo will be at E3 and show off new Wii U games, and Nintendo really isn't changing anything just switching Press Conference for Nintendo Direct.

the irony of it all is out of all the big 3, Nintendo has the biggest space at E3.

 

[Richie]

All this insider talk makes me ask, where's Ideaman? He namedropped Rayman Legends before the infamous leak; maybe he could drop some Ubisoft-related hints this time around?
Aaah, the fun ride toward E3...

 

[AniHawk]

Nintendo has the biggest space at E3.

they're also the only company with two new systems.

so have we decided whether we should believe bh7812 or not yet?

 

[Beth Cyra]

Does it matter?

At this point it will either be awesome (if you like that stuff anyway) for the early info, or even better when it comes time for the hachet to drop.

 

[DaBoss]

When is the press presentation happening?

And when does E3 officially start again? Was it 12PM or 1PM?

Man I'm forgetting everything about E3 last year lol.

Quoting for the new page.

so have we decided whether we should believe bh7812 or not yet?

Well we'll just have to wait for the mods or wait till E3.

 

[Skiesofwonder]

No he didn't; Legends leaked with images before he ever mentioned it.

 

[Caramello]

Really? People actually believe that? I'm surprised he hasn't been banned yet.

 

[FrsDvl]

I figured i'd need to learn how to make a gif now that i'm on gaf, and i tried.. Ment to put Kaz on Kim but i gave up. Someone else is free to do that though.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

No he didn't; Legends leaked with images before he ever mentioned it.

To his credit though, Ideaman WAS the first one to leak pastries.

 

[skypunch]

I guess the only thing we can do is to take it all with a pinch of salt until E3 arrives.

 

[megarockexe]

The leaks sound too good to be true, but if it's anything like this old leak, BELIEVE!
This could be like the guy who leaked the Yoshi game, though.

 

[Bronetta]

The only thing I believe in is gif hype, sorry "insiders"!

 

[equippedwithtowel]

Are you kidding? The cost difference is massive.

As it stands, all they need now is a green room/small set up and to edit in video's of software.

Compared to having to rent the entire hall, the massive projector, send out invites, get every one ready. Plus anything extra they planned like the Zelda Symphony.

They're still renting out the Nokia for the analyst presentation right?

 

[ZAMtendo]

My body is SO ready.

 

[neto]

Shulk being in this would feel like a Christmas present.

What would also be nice would be a Xenoblade stage that does the Delfino Island thing where it goes all over the Bionis and Mechonis while stopping at various areas.

That would be awesome, starting from colony 9 and just moving through all bionis and stopping at key locations *Drool*

 

[TriBlade]

This. By doing this sort of ND's, there are even more safe for leaks than ever. If there's a leak, it will only be a couple of hours before it gets broadcasted.



Also, can someone give me a Only For-tag? There's enough space on the right side

So, it comes again. That time of the year that I know I shouldn't hype myself too much, but nonetheless I will put myself into hype overdrive.

Could someone add "only for" GC version to my avatar? I might regret it later down the road, but heck. It's always nice to dream that this year will be THE year.

 

[FUNKNOWN iXi]

So hyped for Nintendo's E3. Can't wait to see what they have in store for their first party franchises finally in HD B]

Black Shadow is such a terrible character. If there's a new F-Zero rep, I'd rather have it be Goroh.

 

[BY2K]

Alien reject.

 

[Talladega Knight]

i think the person we should be asking for is nostradamus himself: motherfucking nighttrain!

lol anyone else remember that tool?

These type of threads always become community threads now that megathreads are gone.

Please, mods, when this happens, instead of saying the servers are down for maintenance...use no words...just..this...

Sort of.

The official poll that was held on Fire Emblem World last year divided the candidates from Awakening by gender, and Tharja was only voted the third most popular female character, beaten out by Lucina and female Avatar. Because of how Intelligent Systems was planning to create the Scramble DLC, Tharja and Cordelia had to have been chosen as the two winners for Summer Scramble, not necessarily because they were the two most popular females ever.

In a previous Japanese poll by Nintendo Dream magazine that didn't divide characters by gender, Tharja only ranked 11th place and was actually beaten by characters like Lissa and Nowi.

And then there's the poll Nintendo of America conducted earlier this year on Facebook, which also didn't divide by gender. Tharja actually did really good and you could argue she was in fact the most popular female character on there, but she was beaten out by Henry, Walhart, and

Marth

.

Ultimately, what's definitely not true is that Tharja is the most popular character in the game. The general consensus shows this is false.

 

[MagiusNecros]

I pretty much believe Chrom/Lucina is a no brainer at this point although having a mage and a dark mage at that would be awesome.

I don't think anyone can take that poll seriously because of this.\

I don't want Tharja in.
