I don't know about you, but I find all this pretty fun to watch.

She's reminding me of this guy now

The problem is that those tidbits are so vague that they start to seem silly.

A new 3D Mario that feels different from last generation's? That description fits every single one of them! Sunshine had a different feeling to it than 64, same is true for Galaxy and 3D Land/World. Saying this will be the case for the next game as well is just stating the obvious.

A crazy new IP? Splatoon was Nintendo's most important hit on Wii U, of course they'll further move into that direction on the NX. That's again just the obvious. There's no merit to it.

I would say that her and Eurogamers reports about the console itself are pretty specific - as someone said above that will be the information to judge whether she is trustworthy or not.

Other people seem to have similar information to her (NateDrake) and SA as verified her sources. Information may be incorrect of course, or even flimsy, , but i do genuinely believe she has real links and sources to certain people that means she does get information, some correct, some not, whatever.
 
Re: Emily's tweet on the last page.

Disappointing if true. Mario Galaxy/3D Land were great, 3D World is a great game too but felt like it was lacking an identity as it tried to merge what defined 3D Land with Galaxy often.

But it's time to move on, and if this new game is indeed similar to the last decade of 3D Mario titles I find it hard to get excited about any reveal.

Didn't someone at Nintendo/on the Zelda dev team say that they planned to use the Zelda physics engine in other NX games? A 3D Mario might be a good fit -- I'd embrace a game that uses physics in an interesting way. Mario 64/Sunshine used them for traversal to the point where you couldn't just navigate environments easily without mastering the controls and grasping the physics. Galaxy simplified traversal and getting around but used physics to simulate tiny planets' gravitational pull, which was cool.

I'd like to see a return to 64/Sunshine-like traversal, which makes those games such a joy to play around in, while also giving the player enough flexibility to pull off crazy moves to bypass chunks of environment like they can in Galaxy 1/2/3D Land/3D World.
 
Dunno whos alt you are, but man, change your script.

Ad hominem is the last resort of the losing side of an argument.

My main hope here is that the next time people rush to believe a twitter rumor (such credulity appears to be human nature) those who call for caution and skepticism are not shouted down again.
 
Well, something uplifting is that we are less than a week away from Nintendo's FY 2016 Second Quarter Earnings Release:

The earnings release ought to be published when the market closes at 03:15 PM JST. And then there's the news conference.

No briefing, though. Any words about Q&A? It's that also not happening if there's no briefing?

There will be a briefing, the only time Nintendo release their financial results without an investor briefing is for Q1 of a Fiscal Year. Just (if the spokeperson the guy from WSJ talked with is right) not a Corporate one.

There appears to be a bit of confusion regarding IR events on October 27.

Ruled out: Corporate Management Policy Briefing
Likely happening: Second Quarter Financial Results Briefing (with Q&A)

A Corporate Management Policy Briefing usually includes updates on how the company is managed. A Financial Results Briefing is like a CMPB but lacks details about management and is instead more focused on financials, forecasts and upcoming products and services.

While it has yet to be confirmed, I do not see why a Second Quarter Financial Results Briefing on October 27 wouldn't happen. Only for Q1 they don't have briefings as far as I know.

We have Mpl90 calling you out for selective quoting.

Snake is asking you to proof she said September.

I replied to your "september deadline" with a post from September 13 stating October.


To translate it for you, you are perfection.
 
Why is her saying Mario being at the reveal "rolling eyes" worthy?

I've been attacked for saying Mario would be at the reveal because all I hear is "Miyamoto said Mario won't be shown until E3 2017!!!"

I know you can say it looks like she's piggybacking off of MCV though lol

It's sad people are saying she's vague and attacking her. Like she said she said things first and she's the one who went in depth on the NX specs. Yes, games and other things have been vague and she's been a little wishiwashi, but she's been specific on things.
 
Emily just tweeted "I'm done" reporting on the NX...i.e. she now realizes people are onto her shit, and know she's full of it!
 
People need to relax when it comes to Emily Rogers. Just be glad there are SOME leaks here and there when it comes to Nintendo.

Yo dawg, relax a bit. It just means she's said whatever info's she's got and is done for now. Literally even mentions updating in case she hears something new.

Man just stop. People attack her too much instead of appreciating atleast she gives us some info UNLIKE Nintendo who won't say a damn word.
 
¨If I hear an update on announcement/reveal I'll let you know¨ Isn't that exactly what she's been saying for the last couple of days, that she's heard something? God..

Exactly, atleast we got something to discuss...I guess we would already gone all mental if there was NOTHING, like no talk or rumbling at all...

as bad and sad as it sounds, we just can wait now...

Or maybe some people don't like being harassed? It's fine to be critical but the accusations really are not warranted.
 
How can Emily's tidbit that a reveal of Mario coinciding with the unveiling of the NX be true, when Miyamoto has already gone on record and said that we will NOT see a next gen Mario until E3 2017 (and then...it's still a MAYBE that the game will be ready for next year's E3)?

Miyamoto even explicitly says next gen Mario's reveal will be "in about a year or two"....and this quote was from June of this year.

This has officially become the hate on Emily Roger's thread.


Damn sad actually.

Yeah, the one day I come here to discuss that stock market email and this shit goes on.

Two ways. One way is that its existence will be revealed, but any gameplay will likely come at E3 2017.

And the other way would be the fact that they've said "Only Zelda will be present at E3 2016"
 
Yeah, honestly just take it easy on Rogers. Everyone should know to take rumours with a grain salt at any rate, so lighten up and have some fun speculating. It'll be a long time before we get to do it again after all and we have no reason to believe that the reveal will be delayed (even though I personally think it will be :P), so it's most likely not far away even if it isn't this month.
 
...Why the holy hell did you ignore the rest of my post where I talked about how she corroborated the EG article yes, but only for the hardware part. Why did you just take the last part of my post to say "You see? I'm fucking right, you loser!!!11!1!1" (basically). There is an entire post to read, don't take one single part just to feel that you're right, otherwise I'd start thinking you're discussing her legitimacy with malicious intents and with no will to actually discuss, just to show at us how you're the one who was right about her all along.
My friend, please believe that I am not happy about being right. I would stage a hunger strike if I thought it might bring us the NX reveal sooner. The point I have been trying to make is that questioning a twitter source with a spotty record is not heresy but prudence, and that we should not be so quick (and so angry) in dismissing skeptics just because we want a rumor to be true. We have at least one poster in this thread who still will not give up the good fight (I have no intention of feeding such hostility) even after the truth has become obvious to all. I'd like to think that we can learn from this experience and perhaps evaluate claims more critically in the future.
 
I'd wager anyone who delves into the world of football (soccer) transfer rumours will find this all quite tame. After you've read Indykaila, everything else looks solid.
 
The only one guilty for this hype cycle full of man babies here is you, guys. I totally understand Emily's and even NateDrake positions. You can not wait. You can not even fucking think about what you are actually asking for - RDR in NX, sure - and you want everything now and fast. Plans change, information is affected. Get over it.

I totally understand her reaction and if I was her, I would have said fuck you all during the first pages of this thread, to be honest.

Well one it was MCV who broke it she said she has heard the same thing. Two did he say which Mario since there are two types of Mario Games.
 
Man this thread was fun until the random bashing against someone from twitter....

She wasnt the only one talking about news this week...even Nate Drake posted "the time has come #NX" calm down dudes...

Calm down, sir.

We are glad that at least someone is feeding us with information. But like one of the posts above me says, she shouldn't say stuff if it's so flaky.
 
The Eurogamer report said a bunch of things. Emily talked about it and said she heard the same.
Let's not forget that she said it before Eurogamer. I don't assume all of her leaks are set in stone but they certainly are grounded.

I don't get why so many people are aggressive when it comes to leaks and NX. This thread is really not going to last long.

The most depressing thing they could do is tell us at the earnings release that they'll talk more about NX later in the year.

You're right

I just want to know (In her words) if NX hardware is finalized and NX is entered a very early stage of production (September 20th) and Zero percent chance of NX being delayed from its March launch, what is Nintendo waiting for?
 
Anybody else think Gamefreak might have a Pokémon game ready for NX launch or a tease of something Pokémon related besides the inevitable Pokken Fighters port?
 
Calm down, sir.

I'm totally calm and even more, I got some empathy. Not like most cry-babies here that post and sound like kids hitting the table. As I said, information that is certain one day can be flaky the day after, so get over it.

By the way, I mised that MCV rumour over Mario being shown. Anybody can link?
