They don't even have to *show* any new games, just announce them. Don't you think people would get excited if a new 2D Metroid was announced, even if there weren't pictures or even a title to go with it?
When Nintendo failed to drop bombs at E3 everyone said "well, they don't drop bombs at E3 anymore, they save them for Direct". So why are people so underwhelmed?
Oh, Band Bros./Jam with the Band... The first real game to make me sad about region locking.
Well they brought the 2nd one to Europe, so maybe they'll bring this one here?
Nintendo announces direct to talk about the games coming out soon. Then in the direct talks about the games coming out soon, announces the return of Luigi in smash and there's an announcement for a much requested japanese game (Wright VS Layton), which is finally being localized for the west.
People is disappointed, Nintendo is doomed, Ridley is too big for smash.
I don't understand you guys. At all.
AC:NL is for the 3DS, AC plaza for Wii U...
What kind of fucked up logic is this?
I wasn't hyping shit, I would have been fine with one new Wii U VC game. They're such failures they can't even do that. This thing is gonna be a year old and we have NES and SNES still.... No words for the incompetence.
Well, that was disappointing :/
Ooooh, the top one looks nice. Wait, was there new footage for Unlimited Red on the JP stream?
Am I the only one who was satisfied with the direct? Or is Shibata just that more awesome?
- Wind Waker release date is early October, fuck yeah
- Layton vs AA
- Shibata cosplaying Phoenix Wright
- Animal Crossing Plaza looks sweet
- Animal Crossing promotion. This is great!
I guess it helps not to hype too much .
Only Tengami, Giana Sisters and Scram Kitty. Most games were new announcements as far as I could tell.I think we are for the most part.
I'm guessing many of them were games from the indie reel back at E3.
.......Guys I think this may be the last generation in which nintendo will be doing consoles.
Yeah, anyone expecting Zelda U to appear somewhere that isn't E3 isn't thinking about it properly.
I'm disappointed that Zelda U wasn't shown.
I thought it was for 3DS?you got super mario bros. 3.
you are welcome
The Direct felt a lot more 3DS oriented compared to the previous ones we got, and in those terms I felt it really provided. I think expecting any massive news for the Wii U this short after E3 was a bit of a lost cause any case. Acting as if this is the nail in the coffin is pretty laughable.
The US Direct sounded incredibly bad but the EU one was great. Shibata is an awesome spokesperson.
My thoughts exactly....Soooo... Europe reiterated EO4 and Soul Hackers release dates but didn't mention SMTIV, I guess we are not getting it this year then...
All I wanted was new Tropical Freeze footage!
announces the return of Luigi in smash
megaton on Friday.
SHHHH
Everyone stop goddamn whining and start hyping the Friday direct. The only thing that can help with hype withdrawal and the hype train crash is more hype. I for one am CONVINCED we'll see megaton after megaton after megaton on Friday.
I'm assuming the people not aroused by the PL vs AA confirmation have never played either game tbh
I thought it was for 3DS?
