Ban bets? Is that still a thing around here or did we ban that.

 

[Clunker]

Cranky Kong is the hero Nintendo deserves, but not the hero it needs right now.

 

[Not]

Nintendo hasn't risen to meet GAF hype levels since the WWHD and ALBW reveal. What has it been, like, a year?

 

[NotLiquid]

 

[Zalman]

fuck

 

[noal]

I think Nintendo will save the big guns until a Direct 2014 or E3. Their slate for this year is done and they will let the bundles take care of the Christmas period.

A nice Direct in February or March will do me just fine.

Considering both games were announced in 2013, I am going to say your math is a little fudged.

 

[Sadist]

Hmmm I got me a bag of Doritos Nacho Cheese

I wonder if Cranky likes Doritos

 

[Riki]

All Reggie/Nintnedo did is the original announcement that Reggie might be there and the recent tweet that they are showing off an already announced game.

They're still using one of the biggest gaming events to show off a game that not only meshes with every other game shown, but they just showed off in great detail not even a month ago.
It's completely idiotic.
Almost anything from their unreleased library would be better right now.

 

[TheCongressman1]

I would feel better if it was "previously announced gameS"

Same. Putting all the bananas in one bunch isn't a great idea.

ALBW was announced in April.

I was referring to his comment about Nintnedo building up an insane amount of hype and IMO this event is a joke but it might be big to others so who eh.

 

[Nibel]

Ready for megatons ☢

 

[daakusedo]

I think I'm wrong predicting smash bros.
I change to Ridley playable in dktf.

 

[SuperSah]

Brb, LOL.

 

[Not]

It'll be Zelda or Smash. Probably Smash.

You silly man

Considering both games were announced in 2013, I am going to say your math is a little fudged.

OK, OK, eleven months

 

[Anth0ny]

Still think it's gonna be mario kart

 

[Zalman]

Ready for megatons ☢

Megatons of bananas

 

[Mundharmonika]

My banana is ready for Cranky Kong

Get this Ridley crap out of this thread. He's not going to be playable in any game period.

 

[Riki]

I totally thought this was something else at first...

 

[TheCongressman1]

DONK.

 

[Caffeine]

he is using the banana for scale.

 

[Linkhero1]

Still think it's gonna be mario kart

I wouldn't mind if it's Mario Kart. Would love some new footage.

I scrolled down this page too fast...

I thought dudes was just going nuts over no Zelda like Kee Whatever and just posting YOLO dick pics

 

[C.Olimar788]

Get this Ridley crap out of this thread. He's not going to be playable in any game period.

2014 confirmed to be Year of Ridley. Ridley playable in Smash Bros. Playable Ridley DLC in Mario 3D World. Ridley playable in the Wii U Legend of Zelda, and a special downloadable Ridley Mask for Majora's Mask 3D.

 

[Not]

ALBW was announced in April.

Oh, my bad. I was talking bout this, though:

http://www.nintendo.com/nintendo-direct/archive/01-23-2013/

It still sucks. Wow. Love that brand spanking new Mii Party info

 

[TunaLover]

How much time left, I want to play some Conduit MP

 

[Loco4Coco]

Cranky Kong is going to be the most hated character by the end of the night. Poor Cranky

 

[Zalman]

Smash is the best-case scenario here, and Nintendo knows it... Which is why they'll show Cranky Kong.

...For a split second I that i saw something else lol.

This doesn't happen until after Donkey Kong is shown :lol

2014 confirmed to be Year of Ridley. Ridley playable in Smash Bros. Playable Ridley DLC in Mario 3D World. Ridley playable in the Wii U Legend of Zelda, and a special downloadable Ridley Mask for Majora's Mask 3D.

But it's the Year of Cranky!

 

[-Horizon-]

My sides, omg my sides. Perfect.

We are reaching that point fast

 

[ShockingAlberto]

The people having tantrums are funny, but now that everyone realizes it's not Zelda, this thread is just going to be wall-to-wall bitching, so I'm going to, like, play some video games or do something productive until the (probably very boring) show.

 

[icy_eagle]

Guys help me. I'm getting HYPED for potential smash reveal, despite odds being in DK's favor.

 

[Sandfox]

Even if they show off DK why are people assuming that we're getting a Cranky reveal rather than just in-depth gameplay or something?

 

[Riki]

That would be even worse, considering they just did that on the same station less than a month ago...

 

[Linkhero1]

It's a running joke since Amazon leaked the boxart around the same time it was known that Nintendo would be at VGX.

 

[Mango The Magician]

Guys, I figured it out! It's totally a DEMO of Zelda Wii U! lol

 

[ffdgh]

The nintendo hype does that but do keep your expectations in check lol.

 

[C.Olimar788]

But it's the Year of Cranky!

Cranky is secretly Ridley in an elaborate disguise. Between Metroid Prime 3 and Super Metroid the Space Pirates accidentally revived him as an elderly primate and Ridley decided to role with it.

Posting this one last time in preparation for Cranky Kong.

 

[JoeInky]

All these people complaining about seeing a DK trailer because "muh Spike TV audience".

It's glorious.

 

[TunaLover]

Quick, to the eShop, maybe the demo it's already available to play D;

Its online only so I don't really see the Spike TV audience caring too much about this.

 

[Mango The Magician]

No that's after the reveal, cause the e-shops are going down, and rember how reggie was wearing that jacket! :3

 

[Zalman]

Geoff isn't hyping up the Nintendo announcement. He usually hypes up everything.

Prepare your bodies for Cranky Kong

 

[Linkhero1]

Its online only so I don't really see the Spike TV audience caring too much about this.

Nintendo's demo probably won't even be shown on the TV VGX.

 

[Agent Gibbs]

Majora's mask in ALBW, Skull kid in smash bros, Reggie wearing a zelda jacket......its gonna be Majora's Mask HD on WiiU

i can pray
