He needs the banana in his hand.
That still looks like Mother to me.
It'd be funny if Monolith soft was doing a Mother remake for the Wii U.
I was so hoping the re-release of Four Swords last year was going to have online. Dreams were dashed very quickly though.
So I've just come to expect Nintendo to never grow out of their "no online MP" shell (except for the two titles I mentioned). Just imagine if they expanded on what franchises had online MP. Mario Party, Star Fox, F-Zero, etc.
But nope.
If this really is more about easing the fears of investors, it is more likely that we get a Wii Sports U announement than a Monolith Soft announcement.
You're right, two is a lot. I never really expect more than two first-party games.
They could announce that during a investors meeting.If this really is more about easing the fears of investors, it is more likely that we get a Wii Sports U announement than a Monolith Soft announcement.
Momma 3 featuring Lucca.Sorry Mother fans, it's a new IP.
So guys. Not meaning to backtrack. But I recently found this, as I said, and as usual quite a bit late:
And now, there's Resident Evil: Revelations for the Wii U:

It could be a coincidence, but personally, I hope it isnt. I would think the other games on that list would get a reveal tomorrow.
Took this from a user on Smashboards. I didn't even think about this at the time.
Does this mean we will see Yoshi Wii U tomorrow?

In 30 mins? At Iwata's rate of speaking that he does in these directs?
2 new titles. Max.
Do some people have the feeling that this Direct will be to counter the slower sales of Wii U in the west, along with the recent leaks of the other two next-gen systems' specs? I know Nintendo isn't ignorant to what goes on in the video-game industry.
I bet more people think that than you dare give credit to. Take off your hardcore gamer hat for a minute and realize that hardcore gamers are only a small fraction of the overall gamers.
Yes, yes it does 100% more likely to be announced!Took this from a user on Smashboards (thanks TheCreator). I didn't even think about this at the time.
Does this mean we will see Yoshi Wii U tomorrow? Seems like the kind of mid-level project they would have no problem revealing before E3.
How many do you expect to be announced?
That happened on NeoGAF. It may, it may not.
That along with Monolith Soft's new project, at the very least, along with some new services and a re-mention of their current titles in development.
That would fulfill Nintendo's promise of "revealing new first-party games."
If they're not going to go all out with a huge amount of pre-E3 announcements to calm investors, that's probably what will happen.
No point in waiting for E3 to announce Yoshi's Land Wii U since it's already out in the open.
I don't want to get too hyped, but I feel like Nintendo really needs to give people more reasons to buy the Wii U. The awesomeness of Nintendo Land can only go so far. The remedy, of course, is a showcase of GAMES. Owners and prospective buyers need to know what's coming.
So I expect a few interesting tidbits out of this Direct, at least. Something tells me the whole thing won't be mindblowing but they're not going to squander a chance to get people talking again.
I do think two is realistic. They could sandwich them around some new info on previously announced games and have a really good ND. That's if the two are core Nintendo franchises. I'm just thinking about their main first-party developers, obviously their could be more stuff if they throw third-party or small titles into the mix.
Oh, ok. I wasn't sure if you were being sarcastic or not.
Anyway, I agree. Two is definitely realistic for Nintendo first-party.
I know the event did--I was there for the entire event--but I did not draw a connection between the Resident Evil: Revelations title and that image until that user brought it up. Only reinforces in my mind that the Yoshi Wii U project probably is a real title, and one that will likely be highlighted by Iwata tomorrow.
I think the Pokemon announcement could also be a factor of that it too early to announce it at E3 2012 (Pokemon Black & White 2 wasnt out then in Europe and US at this time), and too late to announce it at E3 2013 (the game is comming out in October).I think that we care about E3 far more than Nintendo does. I wouldn't be surprised if they eventually stop turning up for it.
Look at Pokemon X+Y, for example. That would have been an E3 Megaton. The game isn't coming until the end of the year.
Man imagine if they actually announced Yoshi's Island for Wii U
I would cry manly tears and dance around the house
But that won't ever happen
And then maybe they'll drop a mention of Wii U VC or something.
Well going to work see you guys in a few hours.

I really wouldn't be shocked if Yoshi's Land gets announced tomorrow, from that picture and how Resident Evil got announced for Wii U, Yoshi's Land seems likely.
If it does get announced would this mean Metal Gear Solid is coming to Wii U?
*shakes Sadist violently*
Believe goddammit. BELIEVE! What happened to you, man? Look at yourself! You're a mess!

It could have been referring to Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D for the 3DS. Another 3DS game (Soul Hackers) was on that list as well.
Absolutely. There is no rules on when a game can be announced before it gets released. It wont be the case for every game of course, but it is definitelly possible =) In Nintendo's case, we already knew about stuff like Bayonetta 2, Wonderful 101 and Pikmin 3 a long time before they get released. Besides, announcing games at E3 that comes out the same year is more rare than common.So by this logic any game coming out in the latter half of this year could be announced before E3
It's sad that I know my dream of an online Four Swords will never happen.
