Shit just got real... Sakurai just tweeted about the Nintendo Direct! (Link)



Edit : oops, it's better with the link and the tweet :p

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
Sakurai tweet could mean anything, really. Like, Toon Link was just announced, and Wind Waker is right on the edge of a retail release, so we might get a Toon Link trailer.

You guys are getting too excited for an explanation about yesterday's update. The hype train already arrived to it's destination last night without crashing, don't let it get off the station now.

They said it's about 3DS and Wii U games. Will the update have a few minutes? Sure. Will it be the entire Direct? Hell no. Come on

here are my realistic predictions (i've done really good on these in the past):

wii u:
-account system rolled out immediately after direct. connects to club nintendo account.
-nintendo power network is a subscription service that gets you free games, early access to demos, and nintendo secret directs similar to how gaf gold users can ************* and ********* in the *************** forum, but normal users will only see asterisks.
-bayonetta 1 announced for wii u, and will be a free download to anyone who buys bayonetta 2 from the eshop.
-sonic and mario platformer announced as the third sonic game for wii u
-persona 5 wii u exclusive. more details from atlus on november 24

3ds:
-miiverse support, and integration with the new account system
-super mario galaxy 3d announced for 3ds
-majora's mask 3d announced for 3ds
-persona 4 the platinum announced for 3ds: includes everything from golden and extra stuff

eshop:
-bill trinen talks about mother 3 coming to the eshop... right now. as he talks, the camera slowly zooms in on his face until all you can see are his eyes


Since it got quoted again this page, just wanted to point out my love for "realistic predictions" then lists BOTH persona 5 and persona 4. :p
 
Dual Destinies coming out physically thanks to Nintendo funding Capcom.
I can only dream...
I'd personally try to help fund this. I know I'll eventually buy AA5, but the swap to digital only is definitely delaying my purchase. Blame Pokémon for that, plus no physical copy killed my hype a little.

Which is funny because delivering the game early to fans was the whole reason to do a digital release.

Unlikely. Sakurai implied (but didn't confirm) that new trailer would only be for new characters, and so far, no returning character got a trailer. Only the Villager/Wii Fit Trainer/Mega Man got a trailer.

So if there's a new trailer revealed during the Direct, it'll be for a new character. Unless they're gonna have a 3rd returning character reveal in a month.

STOP! JUST STOP! YOU NEED TO BE HYPING IT UP WITH US, NOT BEING REASONABLE PERSON IN THIS THREAD. WHAT HAPPENS TO YOUR LOONEY NINTENDO FANBOY SIDE!?!??

Yeah, you are more likely to be right tho. I'm hyped to see the game in motion so it's all it mattered to me.

I'm still saddened that Soraya Saga hasn't retweeted anything...

No X...

I know this will be for 2013 games, but I can hope, damn it.

I have watched every N Direct on my Wii U browser live, and this one is showing up for me as well.

I'm sitting here trying to refresh the page on my gamepad as I type this and I'm getting a blank screen. Is there another link besides the one in the op?
 
I'd like to see some more HD updates announced for Wii U, N64 VC and show us some of the more impressive stages of 3D World (maybe a throwback stage?). But I'd be happy with more details on Wii Sports Club, such as baseball and boxing.
