Should I get excited duders?

Its the only reasonable choice for this train ride.

 

[Outtrigger888]

Give me wii sports u or nintendoland dlc and ill be happy

You know, Wii sports u might be announced. The producer of sm3dw said he has another game to announce soon. EAD was behind the first Wii sports. This could be a holiday game.

Wishful thinking..

 

[10k]

N64 VC to be announced. Please.

Bun that, yo. GCN VC games to be announced starting with F-Zero GX and Viewtitul Joe!

 

[Kokonoe]

More Mario games guys!

New Super Mario Bros. by Retro.

 

[LocalE]

Sooner or later we should be seeing some info on those games that Nintendo have alluded to, the games that they said were being kept under wraps until they were near release. I assume that those games may be the type of games that are intended to be disruptive or have a chance at very broad appeal, like we have seen with things like Brain Training and Wii Fit and Nintendogs.

We may or may not see these reveals tomorrow, but whenever we do I expect them to be met with anger/disappointment and derision.
And then if everything goes as hoped for Nintendo, core gamers and gaffers will be surprised by their success.

I can't wait to see what they've been working on.

I want to see more Mario 3D World tomorrow, as much as anything else. Maybe announce a new Metroid title, that would be cool.

 

[GulAtiCa]

More Mario games guys!

Neo Super Mario Bros Extreme!

 

[ffdgh]

More Mario games guys!

Mario universe!

 

[mario_O]

Will watch

Spoiler

for the meltdowns.

 

[axisofweevils]

because new games have been shown at previous ND's that were not expected. Like X earlier in the year.

Heck, even the minor pre-E3 Direct revealed Sonic Lost World.

 

[Scoot2005]

Hypity hype hype

 

[anotherVegan]

Mother Trilogy on 3DS / Wii U confirmed

VC Cross Play confirmed

New Side Scrolling Metroid confirmed

Spoiler

LOL

 

[KillerTravis]

If it's worlwide I definitely expect to see a surprise or two.

 

[schuelma]

Why do people keep saying this? Aren't the Nintendo Directs scheduled bimonthly? Don't expect another one until October.

Because like I said earlier, other than I believe one year, Nintendo always has a pretty substantial pre-TGS event/Direct in September.

 

[Cosmozone]

Summer update news would be really nice, but I'm not expecting them at this point, alas.

 

[Murrah]

Dammit I just said I'm trying to not get hyped and people are talking about Mother 3

Stop just let me die in boring non-hype

 

[evilromero]

i hope its a white 3ds for North America announcement

That's right. Keep your expectations low.

 

[Bullza2o]

I have work tomorrow, so I will be on GAF-blackout until I watch it at night.

 

[Kurtofan]

I want to see more of Tropical Freeze.

 

[BowieZ]

Did Iwata/Miyamoto hint at new [types of?] games being released THIS year, or this FINANCIAL year (up to March 2014)?

Anyone got some links?

 

[ash_ag]

Would be looking for an Enix localization, but since Bravely Default isn't out yet, I'm not sure. Since the weather is too hot for big announcements, I guess it will be mostly an update-esque Direct, and there's an especially big number of things we need an update on. It's high time they started promoting TW101 too!

I'm eager to see some eShop goodies for Wii U though. Remember that minor 3DS Direct that started showcasing the huge eShop support, including first-party games? That's yet to happen for Wii U, and Sakura Samurai is the only out of Pullblox, Dillon and itself that doesn't have a sequel yet.

 

[InsaneZero]

September pre-TGS NDs are the ones that we should be looking forward to.

I expect concrete dates and price cut announcements tomorrow if anything.

 

[Fey]

shit i keep forgetting AA5 still doesn't have a release date.

catiously hyped.

 

[schuelma]

Did Nintendo launch any big games to coincide with their 3DS price cut last August? I want to say know, but just checking to make sure..

 

[Drago]

Really as long as I get info on GBA VC, release dates, and bundles then I'm satisfied.

 

[FlashbladeGAF]

about time

 

[qizah]

I really hope there's a few surprise announcements of smaller titles on the eShop or Virtual Console.

It'd be nice to see Link to the Past being released on the 3DS VC. Rather than buy it on the Wii I've been waiting to see if it gets a 3DS release so I can play it there then A Link Between Worlds in November.

I've never played A Link to the Past before so it'd be nice to play both on the 3DS.

 

[marc^o^]

Pikmin 3 secret code could be in.

 

[Zierath]

Maybe we'll get details on F2P Steel Diver.

 

[Frolow]

-Summer Update info
-GBA and N64 VC info
-Account System Details (Few people have been teasing this lately)
-New trailers, details, and release for some upcoming games.

Not expecting much else beside that.

 

[Black Republican]

My first Nintendo Direct as a new Wii U owner looking forward to it,

 

[shouamabane]

I want to see more of Tropical Freeze.

All I want is more footage of Dixie Kong and that 4th character. I'm pretty much sold on everything else accept Wind Waker.

Yeah, Tropical Freeze is the game that has the most to gain for me.

Out of the Wii U games announced, I'm definitely getting 3D World and W101 as of now.

 

[Fey]

Did Nintendo launch any big games to coincide with their 3DS price cut last August? I want to say know, but just checking to make sure..

NSBM2, right? But they had announced that in June/July, didn't they?

 

[Mpl90]

Did Nintendo launch any big games to coincide with their 3DS price cut last August? I want to say know, but just checking to make sure..

You mean August '11? Nothing in the West, Super Pokémon Scramble in Japan.

 

[RobotVM]

The one thing that I would love to hear is that the fall update will make accounts unified and you can control ever aspect of the OS with a wii-mote or pro controller.

 

[RawkHawk2010]

All I want is more footage of Dixie Kong and that 4th character. I'm pretty much sold on everything else accept Wind Waker.

I screamed like a schoolgirl upon seeing Dixie Kong was playable. I screamed even more like one when David Wise was confirmed as the musician.

Provided Tropical Freeze is shown tomorrow, who knows what my reaction will be...

 

[PumpkinPie]

There is a new "what the gamepad does" video on Nintendos UK youtube site with comedian Rufus Hound
http://youtu.be/_wNrmEyjUOM

Dear God, hiring Rufus Hound is really scraping the bottom of the barrel. They'd be better trying to get a slot on The One Show or something.

 

[schuelma]

You mean August '11? Nothing in the West, Super Pokémon Scramble in Japan.

Whoops, yeah 2011.

 

[Goldenmoney]

I'm guessing mostly Wonderful 101 coverage, maybe the Pikmin 3 secret, new pokemon revealed. Possibly some Wii Sports/Wii Fit/Wii Party stuff.

 

[Übermatik]

MEEETROOOOOIIIIIID! Oh, wait, RETRO are working on DKC:R2.

 

[Scoops]

If all they do is give us release dates for stuff already announced I'll be pretty satisfied.

Anything else is bonus.

 

[.la1n]

I look forward to new information and media for the upcoming titles this holiday. Mostly want to see new levels / footage from Super Mario (frog suit please.) I hope they will dedicate a decent amount of time to W101, it looks great.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

I doubt they will reveal whatever that Pikmin 3 secret is now. America just got the game.

 

[plutoknight]

Price Cut? No? I'll take my hype train and go back to the station.

(...Even though I don't own a Wii U, I want that DKC game so bad.)

 

[KennyLinder]

I doubt they will reveal whatever that Pikmin 3 secret is now. America just got the game.

What secret?

 

[Reveirg]

Any chance for a new 'X' trailer?

I guess not since it's a 2014 game =/

 

[ash_ag]

I doubt they will reveal whatever that Pikmin 3 secret is now. America just got the game.

Hyping the revelation of the secret might be a good marketing idea too.

 

[Exile20]

There is a new "what the gamepad does" video on Nintendos UK youtube site with comedian Rufus Hound
http://youtu.be/_wNrmEyjUOM

Okay , that video got me. I chuckled a bit then I saw the arrows pointing at the "New Console" and "New Controller" and LOL.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

What secret?

There are yellow chips around the game that you can pick up and they usually give you tutorial advice.

A few of them (I think ten?) contain numbers that, Miyamoto says, will reveal a secret somewhere down the line.

 

[CrunchinJelly]

Redesigned 3DS?

Timing is about right.

 

[MagiusNecros]

I wonder if that Dragon Marked for Death 3DS game is still a thing. Inti Creates/Marvelous.

Shame on Treasure co-developing Gaist Crusher. Doubtful that will ever leave Japan.
