Oh yes.
This should be good.

Sounds like it'll be delivered in-character.
Which is...something I really want to see. Give me news and entertainment, Squid Research Lab.

I woukd die laughing. They need to do this as if they are actually researchers at the squid lab.
Or Iwata dressed as a lab scientist.

That's cool, but I feel like they've already told us all there is to know about the game. If you haven't been following Splatoon, this is nice I guess, but for most of us this'll just be repetition. I'll pass.

HYPE!
Can't wait!!!
Can't wait!!!
I just hope there are regions like in MK8 so I don't have to deal with lags.

They probably haven't that's why this direct exists, though it will definitely go over some previously shown things.
You already know there are unannounced modes, so you pass?

C'moooon proper local multiplayer.
No, they didn't. There are unannounced game modes, the off-tv and control methods are not fully clarified. We don't know how you team up with friends. And so on ...
Your post shows that you weren't following the game cause they said there are unannounced modes.

As in "Heathcliff"
Hopefully they would answer the question we want to know.
Is party system in?
It's a deal breaker for me.

Or you could do the sensible thing and skip your exam.

Hmmm. I don't know whether I'll be able to watch live, but I'll try to catch it whenever I get the chance. I want to see some more of the campaign as well as more info about the other online modes.
Due to Golden Week in Japan most likely.

I have it already preordered but lets go!!!

Why won't you watch it?
Nintendo are going to line up all the politicians against a wall and shoot them. They will use blue ink for Tories, Red for labour etc etc

I have stated in another thread but I really hope they cover two things:
Can I use a Pro Controller to play all game modes?
Is it possible for a friend and I to painlessly hook up and participate in matches online together?
My purchase is riding on the answer to both of these questions. If I am forced to use the un-ergonomic, heavier Gamepad then forget it. If my friend and I can't easily hook up then it defeats a lot of the appeal and I won't buy.

I always wondered if they'd do a demo for this game. Considering this direct is on a Thursday morning, will we see a demo on the eShop after the direct.
I'm not gonna watch it because a Direct focused in just one game is always filled with spoilers.
But a demo would be nice...
1. No info on that yet. I would like to presume the odds are looking up after the recent local multi announcement but don't get your hopes up just yet.
2. Allegedly this is supposed to work yes, but most likely it'll be something like Smash or MK8, assuming that suits your idea of "painless".
No.
No for local(as in both players using using the same Wii U) and not clear yet for online.
