Just decided to check Twitter to see that tweet from Emily. Great stuff. Hope it's true, Nintendo needs more successes like Splatoon :)
 
Seriously wtf is wrong with her. She can't call us weird. She's been tripling down on there will be news this week and she even disagreed with Toto.

How is she "now" speaking to people?? She's making herself look bad. Either make sure everything is verified 200% or just don't say a damn thing.
 
Well, it seems that Nintendo is investing on new IPs at least:

I'm ready for the project HAMMER revival.

Yeah but it could also end up being like Codename STEAM.......

Even tho it wasn't made 100% by Nintendo like Splatoon but yeah.

Yeah I'm not expecting many projects to turn out as well as Splatoon. That game is lightning in a bottle. There should be some good stuff though.
 
No Corporate Management Policy Briefing is quite strange. Either some info happens before and makes the briefing redundant or Nintendo is in hiding mode, which doesn't paint a great image for NX.

Also I don't know if you know too much about GAF culture, but Emily just shot herself in the foot.

Wouldn't the investors think the same so if after the meeting they still don't know anything about the NX I doubt they will be filled with confidence....

I feel like Nintendo needs to take Splatoon's success and run with it in every way. Best story of this gen among the Big Three, imo.

Also, re-imagining popular genres in creative ways could be the NXs claim to fame, potentially.
 
They say that only wise people learn from their mistakes.

Weird people cry because someone was wrong and rectified.

And yes, this is getting very weird.
 
Sigh, we are fools to listen to any of these people really. But I blame Nintendo.

How hard is it to let people know when to expect some news? If Nintendo would have said "wait for the first week of November" at E3, this madness wouldn't have happened.
 
She does say this new IP is trying to be like Splatoon which is s good thing

It isn't trying to be Nintendo's next Wii Sports. It's trying to be next Splatoon. Remember how weird Splatoon looked when you first saw it?
 
I think I'm in denial. I had to reread her tweet like 5 times before I saw the not in between I'm and 100%. I guess my brain just didn't want to accept it lol.

'I'm getting something through, its something from Japan, its a new IP, its going to be fun, good god they don't have anything like this'
 
Forever going round in circles. 'Guys there will be an announcement this month'...'oh no sorry it's next month now'. 'Guys there will be an announcement this week'...'oh no sorry it's next week now'. Eventually she'll get it right just by carrying on this facade.

So from the sound of things next week we'll hear something very unspecific about the system and potentially a reveal date?

Oh, they would. I mean it doesn't paint a great picture. Only Super Mario Run is a safe bet at this point (until it's delayed or something). FE and AC mobile games delayed. The 5th mobile game doesn't even make it by the end of FY. No NX info will just through this FY into bigger uncertainty.

But it's not like Nintendo has been very communicative since Kimishima stepped in, so it wouldn't surprise me that much. I don't understand how they think they can be successful acting like this, but it wouldn't surprise me.

Not trying to discredit this but did Nintendo ever launch a new platform without a new IP
 
Yes, few weeks ago. I don't know the details, but heard about journalists flocking to Frankfurt fro that.

Why would a guy from New Jersey be brought to Germany though...and we still dont know, if the rumors about the Frankfurt meetup were true or not...the thread got locked...just like we are locked inside the crazyness of this NX thing...

You never know with this damn company. When you always came expecting the worse with them, they always deliver big time. It happened with Splatoon, and more recently with Zelda BOTW. Just hoping the same for this new IP if it turns out to be true of course... I honestly don't believe any of Emily rumors anymore. She lost credibility from me since the Mother 3 thing about being released during E3 and stuff.

But I like to suffer so here I am anyways.

I can't remember exactly.

She probably talked with serkan toto
And? Didn't she talked to her people when she was making claims news would happen this week since Monday?

I'm sorry, but she can't say anyone is weird. I'm not trying to be offensive, but she's acting weird and she's losing credibility now.

We'll see. Gonna need a lot more than weirdness to match Sploon. Innovative and incredibly fun/addicting core gameplay mechanics complemented perfectly by memorable and cohesive audio/visual presentation.

Not that I have any issue with them trying to make more games of that quality. Reach for the stars bby. Nintendo could do with a new suite of major franchises.

BOTW still needs to prove itself. Zelda team and open world haven't always been a harmonious duo, and this is on a scale they've never done before. Though they sure have had a lot of time to polish it up lol.

Well, I've heard only about European journalists. And yes, they were in Frankfurt - we just didn't know back in the time it was for Sun & Moon previews.
 
"Need to unfocus attention from the NX news fail"
"Just throw in some new IP rumors , fans love that shit."


And looks like it's working.
 
Lol, this is funny now.

I also have some insider information:
- Nintendo is making a new Mario and Kirby game for NX
- Nintendo focussing on a revival of an old IP aimed at bringing the family together
- NX will feature more Nintendo titles at launch than either 3DS and Wii U

Nate Drake said earlier they had east coast guys play Nintendos holiday games yesterday. I'm not sure if that's what you guys are talking about.
 
I can't help myself, but be excited as fuck at the thought of the new Nintendo IP in the vein of Splatoon. My imagination is going wild at the moment, damn you Emily!
