oh neat, an actual article about the new Windjammers

 

[Keyser Soze]

I just realized the Switch stuff is going to be 4AM my time... I was expecting sooner.😫

 

[mnz]

It's kind of a bad point of time for everyone!? Like 1 pm on a weekday in Japan, late evening in the US and 4/5 am in Europe.

Yup, RIP people in the EU basically. I'll be doing what I have to do and then when I return home I'll watch the conference, obviously I won't be checking or looking at anything else except for a link to the livestream which should be Nintendo's youtube channel.

Great read.

 

[Alucrid]

hope someone from the east plays GR2 and talks about it on the beastcast

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

It's a perfect time for me. I'm going to curl up on the couch with my cat and watch some Nintendos before bed.

 

[Basileus777]

I'm going to be at work during the Switch thing.

yeah it's basically a terrible time except for people on the US west coast. kind of ridiculous.

I would love to sleep right after it but I have a feeling that im going to be up all night f5'ing for preorders

Brad is taking over the whole operation

I bought the Wii U at launch, i'm sure im gonna do the same thing here. Can't help it. especially if we're gonna get a new 3d mario

 

[daveo42]

I expect there to be a ton of interesting things to come out of the conference but I will ultimately not pick up a system because a Switch would do the same thing my Wii U currently does: collect dust.

yeah it's basically a terrible time except for people on the US west coast. kind of ridiculous.

11pm EST isn't that bad. It does suck a bit worse for those in Europe tho.

Did you all get this to gaint bomb yet?

[Volotaire]

Going to sleep early so I can catch the Switch stuff in the early morning.

Hm, good point. Maybe preorders will go up Friday at some specific time?

 

[robotrock]

They're going up at the Nintendo Store NYC at 9am EST I believe. So it's probably gonna be that everywhere else too.

I'm staying up anyways to catch sites fuck up and put it up early

Is this some viral marketing shit or just dubbed i cant tell

 

[Volotaire]

Amazon UK confirmed their pre-orders go up 7:00 AM GMT in the morning with limited stock.

 

[Piston Hyundai]

Please make this a Game Tapes.

 

[funkystudent]

It it viral marketing if the name of the game its marketing is in the youtube channel name?

I...uh...wat? I wonder if they made these press videos and did separate takes to say the name of each gaming publication. I mean it wouldn't be hard to edit in a few seconds of footage.

Edit: Here's one to Gamespot: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWJ79-JJtK4

 

[robotrock]

I think so? I get why you would say it wouldn't, but I don't think that's true. if GB acknowledges this, capcom won.

 

[robotrock]

ahh yep that re7 shit is all here http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1333123


"GET THIS TO ANGRYJOE"

 

[Catvoca]

Apparently they sent publications a VCR with the tape.

Here's ours. It's funny because just like 15 minutes earlier, we got a package that consisted of this on tape (I'm assuming) along with a VCR to play it on.

"GET THIS TO ANGRYJOE"

Yikes. Why would they do that?

 

[Piston Hyundai]

They'll probably mention this in the same way they did with the Dr. Tracksuit stuff appearing in a WWE 2K trailer.

 

[robotrock]

I hope Giant Bomb never acknowledges it and just takes advantage of this new VCR for Game Tapes.

Do you think the VCR has an HDMI port?

 

[daveo42]

I'm kind of disappointed the CNET one doesn't call out Jeff Bakalar by name. At least they could mention the fucking refrigerators.

ahahaha, "Capcom sent us a VCR for some reason" starting off the latest Game Tapes and that being it would be perfect

it's a shame that scenario requires Game Tapes being a feature

[popo]

I bet GB only got included because Tim Turnip works PR at capcom. Jeff's feelings on RE are well known, should have marketed it directly at Brad.

They did one two weeks ago. Shame as I hate that feature.

 

[Megasoum]

Oh hey, I just noticed that

Brad premium content.
Truly this is gonna be the year of #content

 

[LiK]

thought you guys wanted more content.

 

[ev0]

I want to see Brad to a Frank the Pimp run, then the full 7 day survivor mode.
This should go as well as Hitman

 

[repeater]

Breaking Brad

Spoiler

's fans

 

[Piston Hyundai]

good to see Brad coming through with a fresh one-off premium feature

we need more of that kind of stuff

a 7 Day Survivor Extra Life run would be amazing

Spoiler

if it wasn't just Brad at his home

 

[OdysseusVA]

why dont they play titanfall 2?

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

I actually rather enjoyed him playing DR1 and 2 on his stream, but Dead Rising 4 just looks so boring.

 

[robotrock]

That looks like DR1 to me

I'm good with this

#thankyouBrad

 

[Basileus777]

I hope Jason is his wingman for Dead Rising.

 

[LiK]

I actually rather enjoyed him playing DR1 and 2 on his stream, but Dead Rising 4 just looks so boring.

nah, it's a lot of fun.

 

[Ketch]

Dang, kind of bummed gravity rush looks like exactly the same as the 1st one. Was hoping they'd make a lot of improvements, doesn't look like they did.

 

[BearPawB]

I bet they will watch it again and comment over it.

 

[robotrock]

nah, it's a lot of fun.

I don't disagree with this, but I would rather watch people suffer through a tough game than have fun with one.

either way I'm gonna take what I can get tonight

 

[Zaph]

Two fresh, new features in one week 🙌🏼

I think they're listening

Spoiler

(or is there a sub sale on?)

 

[LiK]

I don't disagree with this, but I would rather watch people suffer through a tough game than have fun with one

well, that's true. DR4 is a very easy game.

 

[Data West]

why dont they play titanfall 2?

Not even a top 3 game of 2016, why play that garbage

 

[BUNTING1243]

I don't think I can watch a press conference without giant bomb commentary anymore
