Honk! Unless I'm already in I don't know I have crap eyes.

I'm also hyped for maybe more eShop reveals. Been playing Denpamen at the moment, hopefully announce more games of that quality/ quirkiness.

 

[Zen_Arcade]

Speculation time! SSB4's roster is nice, but there's Mario Kart U too! So, what do you tnink? Mk7's roster was mediocre... I hope they changed it. Bigger and better, with Waluigi.

It should have Professor E. Gadd.

 

[reelbigtink]

Wouldn't it be alright to just paste it over New Leaf, like so?

Thank you kindly. I was torn on getting rid of my New Leaf avatar for this but man it just looks so good.

 

[Persona86]

This is final.. I cannot add anybody today because Im going to sleep.. Maybe tomorrow if the hype train is still alive..

There is still like 3 weeks to go, the hype train might break by then lol.

 

[Sacul64]

Just saw a post on pastebin talking about the other guy's statements about "Super Mario Retroverse U"

Don't know if anyone wants me to post it, I will if you guys want me too.

Edit: Nevermind.

Gaf, Internet, Gaf.

 

[DaBoss]

Thank you kindly. I was torn on getting rid of my New Leaf avatar for this but man it just looks so good.

Do you still have the one with the New Leaf logo?

I can add this if you want so you can have both logos.

 

[IntelliHeath]

almost 2 weeks and half.

 

[Persona86]

Gaf, Internet, Gaf.

The amount of GAF, internet, GAF posts I've seen over the last year has been surprising.

almost 2 weeks and half.

Woooohooo!

I have a feeling she's more closely linked with X considering the fact that she's Tetsuya's wife and pretty much the mother of the Xeno games (excluding Xenoblade, since she wasn't involved in it) it's possible she could be lending her talents to both projects but I would of thought she'd be too busy with X.

Wait, Xenoblade is connected to Xenogears and Xenosaga? I want to play Xenoblade, but I've never played either of those games. But wasn't the Chrono Cross writer, Masato Kato, responsible for those?

Ah, you're right, that makes more sense. And I just remembered that the Kyoto team headed by Honne is working on the 3DS game.

 

[MYE]

Can someone add the "only for" logo on the top left side of my avatar plz? :3

just symbolically because the same guy directed them, no real relation

I do! Doubly awesome of you guys

No they are not connected. Xenoblade is only vaguely related thematically, like the Quintet saga. There are no story connections. Xenoblade is completely its own thing.

 

[Hermii]

Star Fox X Metroid

Two first party franchises would not make sense, because half the point of crossovers as I understand it, is to share the development burden (cost and such) between two companies.

 

[Valjean Lafitte]

Oh. Is there at least a connection with the way the word "xeno" is used in the titles? Is he just fond of the word or something? lol

Something something Iwata respected his works or asked to have the Xeno- part in there. I don't remember what it was exactly, but someone on GAF explained it.

THE HYPE TRAIN IS STRONG! IT WILL NEVER BREAK!

 

[Valjean Lafitte]

Star Fox X Metroid

I'm not going to lie. I want this more than a new Smash Bros. game.

 

[DrWong]

Please understand I want to be added. Thank you.

[Arc Christelle]

So anybody expecting any surprise reveals?

I'm expecting something from Capcom (maybe.)

Possibly Square, but I have doubts.

 

[reelbigtink]

Let's keep this train rolling y'all, well after E3 even

 

[Hermii]

There is still like 3 weeks to go, the hype train might break by then lol.

Once you get on the hype train, there is no getting off. It will keep on accelerating exponentially until it either takes off in glory, or crashes spectacularly.

 

[DICKS AHOY]

Oh. Is there at least a connection with the way the word "xeno" is used in the titles? Is he just fond of the word or something? lol

It's more or less the same amount of story connection the Systemshock games share with Bioshock. Same developers, same design principals I guess, but definitely a wholly different franchise.

EDIT: Whoops, several minutes too late. Still, it's a naming convention I see a lot when developers change publisher but want to keep doing spiritual successors.

 

[Calamari41]

If Nintendo announces Star Fox X Metroid, I will blow my brains out live on webcam for you all.

 

[awm8604]

I'm on board the hype train. Save the industry again Nintendo!

Got to make up for the last 2 years.

a real mario and sonic adventure

Masato Kato was involved in Xenogears as a script writer but he had nothing to do with XS or XB from what I know. Also, Xenoblade isn't connected to either XS or XG but it juggles with some of the themes you can find in those games, albeit very loosely.

Uhm, the upper brains or the pleasure brains?

You'll get different kind of public for either

 

[CrisKre]

HOOOONK!

Can i be added to the hype bullet?

 

[Arc Christelle]

a real mario and sonic adventure

A real Mario? lol

You mean to tell me all the other ones were lies?!!!

As for the Sonic Adventure..... I'm sorry man.

Whoah. thatescaltedquickly.gif

Oh go on then. I'd like to be on top of Bowser's head please, hiding behind his tuft of hair.

I've that they all deal with religious and sci-fi fantasy themes, buts that sort of a given in JRPGs these days.

I'm glad to hear there aren't any real story connections between XG/XS and XB though. I've seen how good the game looks like in Dolphin and I think I'll play it soon.

 

[Rehynn]

I'd love to join you guys in the picture, but I'm just a fucking bass drum
