The Digital Event last year had Smash, Splatoon, Zelda, Yoshi, Xenoblade, Mario Maker, Pokemon, Kirby, Captain Toad, and a lot more.

my dude, I need sleep but you got me all hyped
Did those games really make a big impact though? I guess Zelda was a cool unveiling, but given it's sorta just stalled since then. Smash is smash and is kind of a set audience now, nothing that can really grow. Yoshi, Kirby and Toad are real small games comparitively.

That wasn't the point. You were saying the duration of the DE is not enough, but they showed a lot of new stuff last year, along with more information on already revealed titles.
I guess I also meant to add that weren't most of those games already known or had been announced beforehand? I could have sworn most of them were.
I cant foresee any scenario in which N isnt overshadow by sony conf. that was one of the best ever done. that said, it is not a race to me and I am really happy of having being reassured about my future ps4 purchase, I just fear to be let down with the only current gen console I have so far, the wii u.
only a significant amount of new games and 3 or 4 very hot projects could make the day for me, but it clearly seems beyond their possibilities

Yoshi's Wolly World was unveiled, we knew as little about it as we know about Star Fox.
Captain Toad
Kirby and the Rainbow Curse (Canvas Curse 2)
Mario Maker
Zelda U (knew beforehand that they would show it, that's it)
Splatoon
Then ofc more info on Smash, Bayo 2, Xenoblade, Hyrule Warriors, Pokemon ORAS.

It's amazing how much Super Mario Maker has evolved over the past year. At E3 2014 it didn't seem to offer enough variety in the toybox. Now, holy shit they have everything. I can't wait.
Behold the new EAD consolidation and restructuring. Really, they are pumping out a lot of great quality products. Look at where Splatoon was last year (20-30% done) and how quickly it turned out to be such an amazing game.
Yeah, that is pretty much an impossibility. I mean really, can anyone even name three games that Nintendo could make which would have even a remotely similar impact as those three games from Sony?
So tomorrow we have likely
Xenoblade X
Mario Maker
Star Fox
Smash DLC
Hyrule Warriors DLC
Amiibo stuff
Yoshi again

Is 3DS having a separate direct this year or not? If not, then a lot of time will be dedicated to that ( Blastball!)

Yall are so worried that yall falling asleep early lol.. This gon be good
Oh lol yeah. I forgot about anything 3DS...
...actually, what on earth does nintendo have for the 3ds? It's almost like they're abandoning that hardware too with how little support it's gotten..
Oh wait, Hyrule Warriors 3DS. that'll be htere for sure.
Pokemon Z

Yeah, this. I think Sony has it this year.
For Nintendo to match it or surpass it they would need at least 3 or 4 of these:
- Metroid Prime 4 for Wii U
- New 2D Metroid either sprite based or developed on the Retro DKC engine
- Star Fox looking Star Fox 64 style (on-rails) rather than something weird like...all of the subsequent ones
- New F-Zero (or a F-Zero GX HD with Online)
- New trailer for Zelda Wii U showing off some significant new things
- Super Mario Galaxy 3
- A big new console IP (like another Splatoon or Xenoblade X)
- Mother 3 finally coming out (which would probably be about on par with Shenmue 3)
- Nintendo Vs Capcom
I don't see it happening personally, but they might hit a few of those if we're lucky...maybe.
That was a special direct. Before then, the Wii U had so much less going for it. Captain Toad, Kirby, Splatoon have already come out and they all turned out great.

well last year we got
Super Smash Bros for wii u and 3ds
Yoshi Wooly World
Captain Toad Treasure tracker (new game)
Legend of Zelda Wii U
Pokemon gen 3 remake
Bayonetta 2
Hyrule Warriors
Kirby and the Rainbow Curse (new game)
Xenoblade Chronicles X
Mario Maker (new game)
Splatoon (new game)
Star Fox (new game)
Mario Vs donkey Kong tipping stars (new game)
that was all during the conference then there was stuff revealed during the treehouse live
Mario Party 10
Project guard
Project giant robot
Then of course Code name steam so i wouldnt worry too much about the time limit.
I have to wonder why we've never had those types of crazy combinations in Mario games before. It just seems so...INSANE. It's like a brand new Mario game finally, the evolution people who've played and loved Mario have waited for forever. I sorta wish you could switch out Mario with any other character so I could finally have Yoshi ride Mario and drop him into a death pit!
I'm starting to get a bad feeling about Nintendo's Digital Event all of a sudden. It just feels like disappointment is coming in a big way. I'd love to be wrong, but it happened in 2012 and 2013, and it's popping up again.

Mother 3 remake on the level of graphical fidelity of FFVII-R
Pokemon multigen console MMO debuting with the DeNa account system
New F-Zero, 1080p 60fps, loaded with online stuff
Metroid Prime 4, co-developed by Armature
Sony had things that super appealed to me...Nintendo can do that too even if it in a smaller scale.
I suspect we see:
Star Fox
XCX (Release Date)
Quick Yoshi Trailer and release date
Super Hax Maker
Miyamoto Projects if they didn't get placed in Star Fox (Project guard probably did/should)
Rare Project (Diddy)
Chibi Robo
3DS Localizations (Bravely Second, Yokai Watch, DQ)
Possible:
Metroid
Animal Crossing
New Garage Game
Paper Mario Wii U
IDK maybe?:
3D Kirby
Old Dead IP Not so Dead
PunchOut
Nah Son Nah:
Zelda
New 3D Mario
Would be neat but no
Pokemon Z?
Iwata sees what Sony did and doubles down:
Mother 3 Remake Bitch
Outside of Pokemon, the 3DS is the weird wildcard...I suspect they have something huge for winter for that. I still think Super Mario 3dLand 2 is possible.
Should be a solid show. Hopefully the new stuff is amazing

Guys, I don't know. We have NO idea what to expect from Nintendo tomorrow. They pretty much showed all the stuff we already knew about in the last week.
This Digital Event is literally unpredictable. We just DON'T KNOW.
It could go either way. It's either gonna be the greatest thing or the biggest shit.

I really don't understand the hype for the FF7 remake. We knew it was coming eventually, but to me its well past the point where it would have been interesting (would have been a great PS3/PS4 launch title). Moreover, all they showed was a trailer, that looked basically the same as the FF7 spinoffs. Okay? I guess I look forward to playing that in 2017 (or 20xx knowing Square.) All we got was a little CG teaser. All the other gameplay stuff Sony showcased was more interesting to me.

Doesn't read OPs, especially not his own
And mario vs donkey kong which was also a cross title.
Well again, this is Nintendo trying to steer a sinking ship with the Wii U. It makes more sense for them to take the hit this year in terms of PR and not invest too much money in developing games for the console and instead pool their resources and studios behind trying to build up future infrastructure and games for the next hardware. Because there's no way they can get the Wii U to sell anymore given how bad it lags in the hardware power and in how pubic perception of the console is extremely dismal.
Metroid. Simple as.
Not really sorry. I love Metroid and the Prime games to death (my all time favorites), but that series definitely doesn't have the following that FF7 does.
FF7 has a crazy following I cannot even begin to understand. I honestly do not understand it since I never got the love for that game when it came out. It is beyond me.
True they could just show a ton of new things as they have been dropping things here and there. I honestly dont think Wooly World will be in the Direct.
Eh, it'll take on hell of a Metroid trailer to get the same reaction from GAF.
Though I'll be squealing like a baby for Metroid.
Depends on the taste in games of the individual you're asking. I mean I went batshit insane when they announced Kid Icarus Uprising after 2 decades of waiting, but I imagine that did nothing to many other people, likewise my expression was flat during the entire Sony conference, there was nothing that excited me personally.
Anyway I would add:
Animal Crossing U
Fire Emblem If (Awakening 2)
Retro Studios game (popular guesses: Metroid Prime 4 / Diddy Kong Racing / New IP)
We might also see:
Devil's Third
Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem
Project Treasure (Namco's goofy F2P title for Wii U)
And don't forget we already had Earthbound Beginnings and Ryu/Roy for Smash.
Possibilities:
Paper Mario
Mario Sunshine HD
EAD Tokyo's next 3D Mario (Galaxy 3)
Next Level Games (Punch Out?)
Perhaps Blast Ball indicates Metroid Prime Hunters 2 for 3DS
3rd Platinum game (perhaps it's Star Fox) since they haven't really announced anything new yet

You think Metroid will 'top the hype of FFVII remake' ?
It's not even in the same league.
Galaxy 3, Zelda Wii U, Prime 4.

My personal megaton would be a Splatoon title for 3DS.

Did you guys forget about fatal frame? I expext a September release

Yay you can play a game you already played again!!!
Sadly, I doubt Capcom has any interest in supporting Wii U at all.
Realest of the real talks. They announce this and after they are done showing it. I wil turn off the stream.
nothing else will match that for me personally.
