I don't know why they'd show Fire Emblem Awakening again; maybe they're for upcoming DLC...but we already know there's a new one each week.

I'm still OK as long as Animal Crossing gets a release date

Spoiler

sooner than June

 

[vagabondarts]

What's the point of these if they just tell us about the same games for 8 months.

Kind of silly if its only about Luigi's Mansion 2. I want the game, I don't want to watch more trailers for it at this point.

We are entering NSMB2 & Sticker Star territory where I'm getting sick of seeing it over and over.

 

[EDarkness]

Point being, these are the trailers that will be shown. If they were going to announce anything reason stands that there would be a video ready to upload for it.

That doesn't mean anything, though. They may talk about other things and not release a trailer. Have they done this before? I'm gonna assume they didn't because no one knew X was coming before the Nintendo Direct aired.

 

[ari]

Wouldn't be so sure bout that.

joke post? That will be a massive flop.

Except for the special Directs this format is for Nintendo to show what's coming out in the coming months, not new stuff on the horizon.

 

[lazybones18]

So we'll be getting that New Leaf release date after all?

Most pleased

 

[Like the hat?]

Assuming we will see google maps here in the US tomorrow

 

[Pikma]

Told you guys, this ND will suck, no way Iwata has anymore bombs to drop.

 

[ohlawd]

ah shiet I have a seminar to attend tomorrow.

praying for good news heh. The last ND kicked my ass with good stuff after good stuff so I hope this one does too.

edit: oh lol the hype train is down it seems. 3DS related? Still sounds good to me.

 

[FearMyWrench]

Assuming my YouTube isn't screwing up, it seems the private videos have been removed from the playlists. Or I'm really stupid and looking at the wrong playlist. Anyone else give it a look please?

 

[ImpassionateGods]

All I ask for is localizations. Seriously NoA we could have:
Bravely Default
Layton vs Wright
Dragon Quest 7
Time Travelers
Fantasy Life

I hate taking up precious announcement time with endless videos of games we already know everything about.

Good.

 

[Darryl]

reggie and bill being in those stills is further proof that there ain't shit to announce. they never get to drop bombs, that's all iwata.

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

I am only watching the NCL one anyways I never watch NOAs or NOE

 

[Father_Brain]

You are correct. But NOA can't un-let (hopefully only part of) the cat out of the bag; I'm surprised that a company so obsessed with secrecy wouldn't be aware of the thumbnail loophole.

I hate taking up precious announcement time with endless videos of games we already know everything about.

Well, we know literally nothing about LCU 3DS aside from the title, release date, and basic story premise, so there's at least that.

 

[Drago]

Watching a Japanese ND is like self torture. All these great looking games coming out and being announced, and then you look at the NoA/E Directs and see 10-15 minutes dedicated to the next Mario game.

Spoiler

yeah I know LM2 technically isn't Mario at all but it shares characters, it fits my agenda ;p

 

[Sandfox]

As long as we get an updated release date for Animal Crossing I'll be ok until E3.

 

[DXB-KNIGHT]

You mean until the 3rd Party Direct!

This is exactly what I want. It would make me go and preorder all of them ASAP.

 

[plank]

It'll be an interesting announcement tomorrow.

 

[eudaemonic]

Has anyone even done that up till now though? Well, posted publicly about it with their material?

 

[Darryl]

the hype train died out fast on this one after discovering that youtube stuff

 

[FearMyWrench]

I remember doing that myself with the Software Showcase for 3DS back at E3 but it didn't reveal anything special so I never posted it.

 

[ffdgh]

They could....you know finally release gba games for 3ds. That alone would make me happy.

 

[ohlawd]

the gba had no games.

today is eShop update day right? I hope we do get Wii Street U

 

[Jawmuncher]

Please surprise me with a new 3ds xl color for the US

 

[EDarkness]

today is eShop update day right? I hope we do get Wii Street U

Anyone tried this on a Japanese Wii U? Looks pretty cool.

 

[ugoo18]

the hype train died out fast on this one after discovering that youtube stuff

What youtube stuff?

 

[Roo]

What youtube stuff?

No private videos on their YT account (NoA)
Edit: nevermind, I think it is in general

 

[Smiles and Cries]

I can't believe you guys resort to hacking Youtube for these

 

[ugoo18]

Edit: nevermind, I think it is in general

Im still confused lol, is it the lack of private videos or there are private videos but not of anything new or significant?

 

[Hours Left]

I'd be ecstatic if this were the case. My 3DS would never leave my side.

 

[StreetsAhead]

It is pretty darn cool. My partner and I sat around one night and showed each other our hometowns/schools, as we're from different countries, for a couple of hours. Good old fun.

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

Just wait for the ND..All this scavenging YT videos trying to find stuff

 

[marc^o^]

If NA ND has Wii U stuff and not EU, I assume it will discuss new TVii features.

 

[Wolfie5]

I expect very little Wii U news on this one. If I had to guess, at most maybe some release dates and maybe something about connectivity between 3DS and Wii U.

 

[Macho Madness]

I'm expecting maybe some news on Lego City but that's it.

 

[StreetsAhead]

I'm expecting maybe some news on Lego City but that's it.

Well, the first footage of the 3DS game will be neat kinda.

 

[Pikma]

I'm expecting nothing.

Spoiler

But I'll gladly eat crow

No Wii U stuff today

 

[pulga]

Is there any general consensus on this? Does it sound like itll be worth waking up extra early?

Or am I just gonna listen to Iwata bang on about games we already know about.

 

[Whiskeymatt]

No Wii U stuff today

There is in America

The odds of this happening is pretty high, but we really don't know what they're going to show for sure. I guess it's like any other Nintendo Direct.

 

[MarkusRJR]

From what we've seen on their YouTube channel it looks to be Luigi's Mansion 2, Animal Crossing: New Leaf, Fire Emblem DLC, and Lego City Stories for 3DS. There will probably be more but I don't think it's worth waking up early for.

 

[lordfroakie]

No Wii U stuff today

bayonetta 3ds: tap it edition plus

 

[FearMyWrench]

Yeah, but it would be very odd if America got a release date and Japan didn't.

 

[RM8]

Haven't been paying attention, does this Lego game look any better than the usual Lego games?

In any case, Luigi's Mansion alone means I'm watching it early tomorrow.
