I don't really see the frothing demand for Mother 3 to be honest. While it would cool of Nintendo to re-release it, we already have an excellent translation. You can play the game and understand it so the only thing Nintendo can do is put it on 3DS or WiiU. Again, that'd be cool, but a version of Majora's Mask with a decent framerate would be a lot more exciting.

You guys are going to riot when they announce it's actually Nintendogs + Cats + Fishies for 3DS, aren't you?

Praying to any and all Nintendo Gods that exist right now that this game is a new Metroid. I need a new Metroid in my life

Its just going to be Majora. Meh.
Maybe if we all pray together they will give us our reward ?
Metroid Prime Pinball 2

Meh? A lot of people have been waiting for it for a long time.

There is no 3DS Monolith game.

I'd like that. As a guy who didn't have Nintendo systems growing up and never played Zelda games properly this would be great as I now have a 3DS

If they announce Strikers 3DS by Next Level Games or an Excitetruck sequel by Monster Games, I'll go ask for a tatoo of Reggie on my chest.

New Warioware/Rhythm Heaven project. What has that team been doing since Tomodachi? Rusty's baseball perhaps, but I'd love a new game that plays with 3D effects in some interesting way.
What are those two companies doing anyway?
I would love what you suggested - ExciteBots wasn't as good as truck i thought.

She also came out with a Majora's Mask sculpture as well..
I've been dreaming of this game since OOT3D was announced and this feels like the last shot this year of this being announced. I mean why else would they drive these subtle hints for the past year? I hope they are doing this to build hype.

0% chance its anything to do with Mother. If I could go less than 0%, I would.
Its either Metroid (please no, save it for WiiU) or Majoras Mask Remake.
Id say its Majoras. All signs are pointing to that.
Plus, MM is the only game you can show for 90 minutes without spoiling anything

I would rather have MM on the next gen handheld and Metroid now
You are a bad man Gurry for not wanting a 2D Metroid

It's going to be Majoras Mask and it will be glorious. All the hinting it has to be it. My gues is the only reason they didn't show it yesterday was between Zelda wii u and Hyrule warriors that would of been a lot of Zelda for one show. Thus they are revealing it today.

I agree with this. Reggie said on the IGN Round Table yesterday that they wanted to pace themselves and the announcements. They didn't just want to dump everything out at once on Tuesday morning. I think it's working out REALLY well for them. Everyone is talking way more about Nintendo than anything else.
As someone who's never played the Mother games, I'd love a Mother collection for 3DS. I'd probably buy it day one, but I don't have the desire to download emulators to play them.
I'd also be more than happy with a new Metroid. Majora's Mask port would be cool too.

Well, you guys have convinced me it's just going to be Majora's Mask. Hype completely deflated. If I want to play Majora's Mask, uh, I'll just go play Majora's Mask; I don't need it on a tiny screen.

Ill gladly take any Metroid they bestow on me.
But I feel like the WiiU needs this game more than 3DS.
Theory:
It's Majora's Mask, but they're not just showing the game. They're showing a 3DS Player that attaches to the Wii U. Allows you to play 3DS games on the TV. Certain supporting games (starting with MM3D) will be rendered at higher resolution when played on the 3DS player.
That would explain 90 minutes.
...I'm honestly just hoping, but every 2nd console has had a handheld playing mechanism on it so please?

Good news. It isn't Majora's Mask.
It is indeed strange that she had that mask on stage... And I would be happy with a Majora's Mask remake, I beated that game in 2001 and haven't played it since. It would be like playing a totally new game since I don't remember 75% of it.
And Metroid for Wii U
Even though I still think the original Majora's Mask is a timeless masterpiece, if there's one thing that I would like to see improved it was the graphics, because somehow I prefered the pre-rendered backgrounds of Hyrule Market and etc. in OoT64 over Majora's Mask on the N64's 3D polygonal landscapes and towns. It's mostly just Clock Town that I think could end up looking really gorgeous on the 3DS.
Similarly, I can't understand why anyone wants the big reveal to be Majora's Mask.
According to you.

Zelda tweeted that she has no idea what the game is, and she's not part of the announcement.
Just an FYI.

It seems pretty inevitable that we are going to get MM3d. It is a good thing if this reveal is something different because it means that Nintendo has something else very high-profile to share.
Haha and people still think it is Majora's Mask.
Dude, either you know what it is or you don't. I suspect the latter, so maybe stop calling out everyone suggesting it might be MM3D.

I want Metroid to be in HD on my Wii U. Not on the handheld where I'm missing out on all the beautiful and subtle nuances and details. It's just too easy to not feel absorbed in a handheld game and Metroid needs to be as immersive as possible.

I'm guessing it's either a new 2D Metroid or Majoras Mask 3D.... The worst part is I really want both and since there's only one announcement left.....
