now you guys are trying to get me overhyped for a direct and last time i got overhyped we ended up with cranky kong.

But...everybody or atlease most saw him coming after that amazon box art leak lol.

 

[Fantastical]

It would be funny if Reggie acknowledged the Cranky backlash.

Personally, I'm still only hyping Cranky Kong.

What backlash?

 

[anon_mastermind]

+1 for an ExciteBots 2. Wii game deserved much, much better sales. Monster Games get on it!

 

[Hero of Legend]

It was taken down because it was false.

So the email was fake? He said it was August originally and now he said it's Autumn, not August (which is actually better since Autumn begins in September). I'm confused.

 

[Benzychenz]

The best part of Excitebots is playing as the Hummingbird and flying so far over the course that you can't figure out where you're supposed to be going anymore.

The best part of Exitebots is that it never released in PAL regions

So the email was fake? He said it was August originally and now he said it's Autumn, not August (which is actually better since Autumn begins in September). I'm confused.

He somehow read "Autumn" as "August".

But that wasn't for a direct though, that was for VGX! Iwata always brings the bombs, don't worry!

Yeah, point is it's Autumn, that was true.

Yes. From an Australian PR email.

Yeah, point is it's Autumn, that was true.

Edit: And now I see VOOK was telling the truth and not kidding, looks like Autumn does start in March in Australia, why did I think the world shared the same time for the seasons? I guess I confused that with months, which of course is shared throughout the planet, but not season dates, wow, the more you know.

 

[Riedinizzo]

I used to get excited for these. I've learned my lesson. Hopefully we get some new cranky kong footage... Fucking Nintendo

Half of that thread was trying to convince the other half to go in expecting Cranky. They didn't listen to us.

3D World felt like it even had a kitchen sink. Not really expecting any DLC but it would blow my mind.

How Earth works spoiler:

the Southern Hemisphere has Autumn starting in March, the same time Spring starts in the Northern Hemisphere. Opposite seasons and all. Like right now, it is Summer in the Southern Hemisphere.

It's time.

OK everybody calm down.

 

[NateDrake]

The email is real. He just mentioned the wrong information by saying August instead of Autumn (meaning Jan-March in Australia). NoA says Spring 2014 which = Autumn 2014 for Aussies.

Yeah just googled it, mind blown. God I feel stupid.

 

[DJIzana]

God... I'm reeeeeeeeally hoping for X and Smash Bros. Mario Kart is expected so there's one title on my list covered but yeah. Those two really have me hyped the most!

Shouldn't fall in Australia be March to May ie the opposite of spring?

 

[Griss]

Miyamoto said they could have shown it at E3, but planned to save it for a later date cause they didn't want all their eggs in one video game conference basket

If they want to be able to have a full E3 show again next year, they need to keep Zelda a 'secret' so that they have something to hype for the show.

There is no chance of Zelda unless they are seriously freaking out and making bad decisions.

 

[Not75Drops]

Pokken would be a good surprise for Spring but watch it be one of those Japan-only arcade games.

 

[Benzychenz]

Yep, Australia's Autumn is March/April/May.

 

[fredrancour]

Nintendo needs to get over its last minute announcement trend and let the internet hype monster do more for it with teaser trailers and stuff like that. If you wanna rely on word of mouth give stuff a chance to propogate.

 

[ArchedThunder]

Pokken is hanging out with Pokemon Z.

If that means more Megas in both then I am down for that.

 

[HardRojo]

Some Metroid news would be nice Any chance? Probably not.

Any other bizarre renames?

I know Lay's is called Walkers in the UK for some reason.

Not to get off topic.

 

[Nightstick11]

I had a multi-page meltdown about Cranky Kong and trash like Donkey Kong Country in general.

I am hoping for X and Fire Emblem x SMT but I am resigned to some Yoshi crap, more DKC Returns, Kirby Party or some shit and other things nobody gives two shits about.

 

[Steve Youngblood]

Some Metroid news would be nice Any chance? Probably not.

I would anticipate something along the lines of Reggie wearing a different piece of Metroid clothing. Maybe he bends down to tie his shoes and reveals Metroid socks.

Wendy's is a completely different organisation down here. It's a small vendor style store that sells ice cream, milkshakes and hotdogs.

I was mindblown when I went overseas and Wendy's was like McDonalds
