Guys, where's all the hype?

I'm going into ND hype stasis by playing Bloodborne from 2-6 PM.

That way all the hype can get into my veins at one time.

 

[LonDonE]

Heh, people didn't believe it.

What would be awesome is if they announced the Zedla wii u delay was in fact the aprils fool and it is in fact on track for a 2015 launch!!! but i doubt it.
So bummed over the delay, uncharted 4 too, now i am going to be playing Halo 5 over fall ms wont let me down!

 

[Morfeo]

blood rituals are involved this time

Bloodborne 2 coming to Wii U confirmed?

 

[Quadraxis]

The big suprise of this direct is obviously a collaboration of Nintendo and Aksys bringing Zero Escape 3 to the 3DS.

Spoiler

I wish T_T

 

[Negaduck]

What if this is the joke. There is no direct and everyone is waiting for nothing.


That would be genius. . .

DeNa's first game, Nintendo Tinder.

 

[Finale Fireworker]

We are all Mewtwos.

 

[Xenoboy]

I have mentally prepared for this since its announcement, and I'm not prepared.
I'm going to go nuts before this have even started

 

[Watch Da Birdie]

Jesus Christ.

Yeah, she really is that great huh.

 

[Akhe]

Guys!!

If Project Giant Robot = Metal Combat: Falcon's Revenge sequel!!?

I want it right now!!

 

[Frodo]

Announcement of Nintendo's first mobile game, called Flappy Mario.

The game uses 16bit era sprites and you control Mario using the cape to fly and you have to tap the screen to make Mario float and avoid the green pipes.

 

[enigmatic_alex44]

*sigh* all I want from the direct is a solid release date for Zelda and to be guaranteed it's still Wii U exclusive. None of this nonsense they pulled with Twilight Princess where it was pushed to promote a new console (Wii) and was delayed by almost a month on the Gamecube

 

[harpingon]

Just reminding everyone I need Fire Emblem in this direct

I just drooled.

Just started a replay of Awakening on my new New 3ds.

FE has been top of my purchase list on gcn, wii, 3ds, ds, etc

 

[georly]

I want the following:

• Collectible badge center
• Mewtwo reveal/release date

That's it.

Spoiler

Club nintendo picross would have been nice, too.

You mean the nonsense knee-jerk reaction people had? They announced they're 'announcing' the console next year. Zelda Wii U won't be on it.

 

[Blackquill]

I just need more Fire Emblem and Mewtwo

I except something more but that's just asking for disapointement

(just stop with Xenoblade and Splatoon we have a thounsand of trailers for both them I think we know if we should buy them or not)

 

[J@hranimo]

We are all Mewtwos.

Yes. I am Mewtwo.

I've been playing through FE8 (The Sacred Stones) on my 3DS. Maybe I should play it some more to distract myself...

Even if that were the case, they aren't going to address it now since they won't even talk about NX until next year.

 

[Finale Fireworker]

Yes. I am Mewtwo.

Nintendo JP Direct has a disclaimer it won't feature DeNa or NX games. So no.

When have we ever gotten a solid release date for a game that is a year away?

You're gonna have to put that on hold until an August Direct at the earliest.

 

[Blackquill]

We are all Mewtwos.

I am Mewtwo, I dreamed of Mewtwo and in my dream, Mewtwo had a totally different moveset (which is great since his specials were bad in Melee)

 

[Sorceror12]

Is the background on the website always like this for a direct?

Looks like the grid for Mario Maker.

I can already guarantee that the first thing won't happen and another TP is more likely the further they delay Zelda U.

 

[SatoAilDarko]

When have we ever gotten a solid release date for a game that is a year away?

I would like a first half 2016 date. There is no need for a year delay three months from a perceived date unless they are pulling a dumb dual-release and delaying the game only for that.

Zero chance of this. It's not a 2015 game, and Nintendo doesn't give release dates until a few months out. Heck, we didn't get a Smash Bros. release date until a month before.

 

[Kriken]

I think I found something on the Nintendo Direct Website:

Oh my God, lol

 

[sinxtanx]

Is the background on the website always like this for a direct?

Every single time

it's their stylistic flair for Directs, been going for years

 

[mStudios]

WHERE ARE THE RUMORS?
I NEED TO GET EVEN HYPER

 

[paolo11]

I hope we get a release date for Xenoblade Chronicles X (NA).

But I hope we get new games for N3DS like a new Megaman game(I wish) or a good JRPG game (DQ7 localization?)

 

[IceDoesntHelp]

I hope that you realize that they kinda hinted Metroid in the work awhile ago.

I'm willing to take a jab that you dislike Smash 4 because it lack the characters you wanted. Right?

As I said earlier it was part of the fact, but also got bored of it quickly

 

[Oersted]

• Collectible badge center
• Mewtwo reveal/release date

You mean the nonsense knee-jerk reaction people had? They announced they're 'announcing' the console next year. Zelda Wii U won't be on it.

The wording was Iwata hopes they will able to share more information next year.

It wasn't even a confirmation of a reveal, which makes the kneejerk reactions even more ridicolous.

How do you feel about Devils third?

 

[tsundoku]

Anyone with experience streaming the directs over a limited bandwidth? Going to be out of the house but obviously worried about missing Amiibo Preorders or Limited Club Nintendo award announcements

Any idea how much bandwidth it would take to stream on 720p or whatever (if the player even has nonhd / hd setttings) if i tether to my phone

 

[Neoxon]

I'm pumped for Nintendo Direct. Hope its more Zelda, Metroid or drop crumbs about NX

Zelda got delayed so chances of more info on that game are slim, & we won't hear anything about the NX until next year.

 

[Jpop]

like i said earlier in this thread. the zelda might have been an early prank and we will see a new trailer on the direct with 2015 release still coming lol

Don't do this. My heart cannot take the disappointment

 

[mStudios]

How do you feel about Devils third?

On my priority list

Just watch it on the lowest settings possible to get the announcements as they come.

If something interests you, they release high-quality trailers on Youtube and on the eShop afterward.

 

[oatmeal]

3p PST is such an odd time for this :/

 

[Kobe24]

Well, when revealing a Metroid game, they have to pick odd hours.

You mean the thing they did once and explicitly didn't do in the exact situation last time?

 

[Morfeo]

I heard Shenmue 3 is coming, but cant disclose my sources. Dont tell anybody!

 

[ShockingAlberto]

3p PST is such an odd time for this :/

I imagine it couldn't be any earlier since 7AM is pushing it for Japan and couldn't be any later since midnight is pushing it for the UK.

[Agent Unknown]

Will the live stream link be available on the eShop or is there at least a site for live stream that's compatible with the Wii U browser?

 

[JPS Kai]

Fingers still crossed for a Yakuza 1+2 HD localization.

 

[balladofwindfishes]

Cool, even before the Direct and Mewtwo, Club Nintendo is already down.

Excellent. Really good sign that, if he's released tonight, that I'll be able to use him. Instills confidence in me.

 

[Shauni]

You could just use the YouTube link, it works fine within the Wii U browser

Twitch.tv is compatible with the Wii U browser.
