That's kinda neat. The original tweeter must be happy.

 

[Okami Haundo]

I think it's haptic feedback, so you can feel you're touching those boobies.

My favorite part about touching breasts is the way they vibrate.

 

[CharminUltra]

So they're finally here, performing for you
If you know the words, you can join in too
Put your hands together, if you want to clap
As we take you through this Ninty rap
Huh!!

BIG N! Ninten-DO!!

 

[Volotaire]

Read the tweet the Nintendo account is replying to.

This makes it even weirder

 

[SuperSah]

Now you mention it, reading the Gaf reaction afterwards will take up a lot of time, plus by the time the presentation has finished I'll be wide awake.

In regards to the pre order, I'm still hoping to get one in at Grainger Games as it's just down the road from me, but I'll use an online site as a back up.

That's how I see it. Ends at 5am, GAF for an hour and preorder it at 6am. I didn't realise they put BST and not GMT, so an hour earlier is all the better for me.

 

[Griss]

It's not pre-recorded. I don't know if there's even a ballpark right now, but there certainly isn't an exact runtime. If I were to just pull an estimate out of thin air, I'd personally assume 60 to 90 minutes.

Wait, it's not a pre-recorded Direct? Really?!?

Wow, that's news to me. I thought this was gonna be a direct. Huh, that sets the cat amongst the pigeons.

I'm hoping 40-60 minutes. Less, and it's not enough. More, and you're probably starting to bore people with stuff that's better off in specific in-depth trailers for each game.

Spend 15 minutes on the hardware on OS and 25-45 on the games, then tomorrow upload a bunch of trailers for everything. That would do nicely for me.

 

[Nimby]

Is their multiple events? Like a Japanese stream and an English stream?

The new crazy IP is simply "Big Reggies Cookie Eating"


We should have seen that one coming

Reggieeeeeeeeeeeee hope he appears on tonight's presentation! He used to be my favorite presenter at press conferences on E3. Top notch way of expressing and talking.

 

[serenewarfare]

Is their multiple events? Like a Japanese stream and an English stream?

No. The event will be in Japanese and dubbed over in English.

 

[V1LÆM]

So amazon are starting preorders at 7am here in the UK. I'll be at work so hope i dont forget.

 

[Rösti]

Is their multiple events? Like a Japanese stream and an English stream?

Nintendo Switch Presentation 2017 in Japanese. Nintendo Treehouse stream in English. But not multiple events/press conferences.

 

[Finale Fireworker]

I have a feeling this presentation is going to be drastically shorter than I want it to be. I can't shake the idea that this will be a 30 minute thing. I really hope it's a big thing, considering I'm staying up late to watch it.

I also hope they mention Pokemon Stars and, also, that Bank is now compatible with Sun/Moon.

 

[Crocodile]

A new version of SF2 with new content.

Who would want that over SFV? Nostalgia junkies? The FGC? Would that appeal en masse to any other group?

To be fair I consider density (how much stuff they can fit in that time) more important than pure time

 

[Athreous]

Guys, when does the stream/announcement starts?

 

[Oersted]

Is their multiple events? Like a Japanese stream and an English stream?

No. Yes.

Well, there are multiple events, but just one conference.

 

[GiantBreadbug]

Which third parties are you guys expecting to be there? Besides Bethesda and 2K Im guessing

Atlus
Capcom
Square Enix
Platinum
Namco

FROM pls

Still not sure whether to expect them so it'd be megaton

So. Switch game preorder pages are up.

 

[friskykillface]

I want cookies

 

[eoa-swam]

This is Nintendo. No matter when that link goes live, they'll be sold out in 15 minutes.

So it'll be 6am for us in London etc?

I was about to ask the same, do we assume Amazon have messed up with using BST? and it's actually 6am?

 

[GwyndolinCinder]

The Amazon UK page for the Switch.

Oh i see, wow 6am is early, fortunately ill be up by then!

 

[m4st4]

Why is Reggie eating a cookie?!?

Super Mario Cookie?

Dude is most likely hungry.

Expect at least one hour

 

[dragonyeuw]

I still have no idea what "Ultra Street Fighter 2" could even mean or who would be the target audience

*scratches head*

A shot in the dark here, but probably hardcore SF fans.

Yoshi Cookie 2 confirmed?

 

[OrbitalBeard]

Guys, when does the stream/announcement starts?

It's at 11 PM Eastern Time. I'll let you figure out where that fits into your timezone from there.

 

[Finale Fireworker]

So do I, and Nintendo has crammed a lot of exhilarating content into relatively short Directs before. But I worry that this won't be like that. I don't know what to expect.

I feel like they wouldn't host this big live presentation if it was only going to be 30 minutes.

Thinking like an hour or more.

 

[GDGF]

Who would want that over SFV? Nostalgia junkies? The FGC? Would that appeal en masse to any other group?

Maybe a good way to get past SFV'S Playstation exclusivity. Something similar was done with the Genesis version way back in the day.

 

[StrikeFirst117]

Four hours.

Seriously 4 Hours seems a bit crazy doesn't it. I haven't been paying much attention other than the date of it, is this including a treehouse event maybe?

 

[TunaLover]

Fuck, it's gonna be 2AM in Sao paulo when the conference hits.

1:00a.m. in Santiago Chile

 

[MatrixMan.EXE]

I'm ready.

 

[OmegaSmash]

I still have no idea what "Ultra Street Fighter 2" could even mean or who would be the target audience

*scratches head*

It's a codename for the return of the best casual fighter Capcom has ever done.

 

[Waylon Drums]

This is starting to remind me of staying up obscenely late for the GameCube announcement. I'll never forget IGN's "we totally know the name of the new system" post.

Spoiler

They thought it was StarCube.

 

[Delio]

Which third parties are you guys expecting to be there? Besides Bethesda and 2K Im guessing

Atlus
Capcom
Square Enix
Platinum
Namco

Only thing i'd add to your list is Koei. I always expect some form of a Warriors game at launch.

 

[Finale Fireworker]

I feel like they wouldn't host this big live presentation if it was only going to be 30 minutes.

Thinking like an hour or more.

It for some reason never registered in my brain that this was a live presentation. I guess I kept thinking livestream like Nintendo Directs always were. Now I definitely don't know what to expect.

 

[ReyVGM]

Guys, when does the stream/announcement starts?

Read the OP!

 

[Plum]

...shall I preorder again on Amazon after doing so with GAME or risk it with just the latter? I can't afford to mess up and buy two but I don't know how well GAME will be able to fulfill their pre-orders.

 

[JustenP88]

I think it's haptic feedback, so you can feel you're touching those boobies.

Did they somehow get sand in the controller?

 

[WadeitOut]

I'm probably not buying a single game until Zelda but I'm still getting this preordered because I'm a tech whore.

The conference starts in the middle of the night. What were they thinking?

 

[Athreous]

It's at 11 PM Eastern Time. I'll let you figure out where that fits into your timezone from there.

2 am for me, tyvm mate!

Stay late. I heard Karen will show up on the presentation! lol.

 

[V1LÆM]

...shall I preorder again on Amazon after doing so with GAME or risk it with just the latter? I can't afford to mess up and buy two but I don't know how well GAME will be able to fulfill their pre-orders.

I'd definitely go with Amazon.

If by 'cookies' you mean Reggie droppin' them Switch bombs, then yes.

Perfect response to a perfect tweet. That black and white picture kills me. I wonder how old it is.

 

[evilromero]

That's so odd being that late in the U.S. 10 AM for me which is my usual Bloodborne session so I'll have the conference on my iPad.
