Hey Nintendo, you could have announced some of this stuff at E3.....

 

[Bulzeeb]

Pretty much. Nintendo will never learn :/

on the contrary, Nintendo decided to make his own little show, they doesn't care about E3 anymore

 

[Hiltz]

Can someone explain why, operationally, NOA gave such an abysmal E3 and now there's like multiple megatons? How does that make sense?

Nintendo simply defies logic.

 

[BassForever]

 

[Exeunt]

I wonder how much of this will carry over to the West. According to Andriasang, the sale is a 20% cut off select titles for a week to celebrate the e-Shop's first anniversary. Not too bad, I guess.

 

[Anth0ny]

e3 is dead

[aceface]

I need a cigarette now.

What's the link for the NoA one?

 

[Bruno MB]

So many things that I want:

Devil Summoner Soul Hackers
E.X. Troopers
Project X Zone
Bravely Default Flying Fairy
Animal Crossing 3DS
Nintendo 3DS LL

 

[Prophane33]

people are fuckign with me about that 3DS XL right? cause i literally just bought a 3DS not 2 weeks ago.

Me too, no regrets though. That thing looks too effing big.

 

[nckillthegrimace]

Yes, i REALLY do.

Fucking goddamnit.. bought 8 retail games and spent near $60 on the eshop.

Well, that sucks. At least you can transfer all that shit over and then dump it on a kid or something, I guess.

 

[Dragoon En Regalia]

NoA simply defies expectations. The wrong way.

But Iwata knows what's up. Shit was this relevant as fuck.

 

[XeroSauce]

Monster Hunter, ye?

 

[Jintor]

If this DX10 is on 3DS, I might conceivably be interested in a DX game for, like, the first time ever.

 

[Doc Holliday]

DQ X looks good!

 

[Neferteetee]

Uh.

Hahahahahahaha

 

[brucewaynegretzky]

Um what were the megatons?

New 3DS redesign we all new was coming eventually but not really that big of a deal and.....?

 

[Dmax3901]

Uh.

 

[Kazerei]

Remember the 3DS-centric presentation that Scott Moffitt did during E3? That was crap. This Nintendo Direct was waaaay better. I'm so jealous that Japan has this awesome 3DS lineup.

 

[The Hermit]

Uh.

Wollan would be proud...

Exactly

he dropped the bombs

I was planning to buy one next week so this is great news for me.

 

[Omnicent]

this looks pretty good

 

[Brainiac 8]

Yup, this proved that E3 is truly dead. Nintendo will be dropping their major bombs on their own terms.

 

[also]

It was worth waking up early for this. I hope NOE's stream is also this good.

 

[Big Papa Husker]

 

[Busaiku]

YES

 

[Vanillalite]

Etrian Odyssey IV is supposedly going to have a demo up on the eShop (soonish?).

 

[TheNatural]

US stream time with info.

 

[bounchfx]

wow, this looks way better than when they first showed it. WAY better.

 

[Forever]

Best Nintendo Direct ever?

 

[evilromero]

This was way better than their E3.

 

[SparksterMeta0]

1 Destroyed village?
Check.

 

[Conor 419]

So...Monster Hunter news. Does that mean this could be announced for the EU/US at last?

 

[velvet_nitemare]

Thank god there is no second stick, if it had one I'd have to pass.

wtf, how is more options ever a bad thing?

I had forgotten about the NOA one thanks to all this actual news. Thanks!

Here we go again!

 

[enzo_gt]

Having just bought a 3DS, I don't give a shit about the XL. Looks ugly, probably would be a bit more comfortable though.

If it had a second pad and was an actual redesign and not a seperate model line like the DSi XL, I might have been upset.

[smr00]

Anyone get a screen grab of that XL?

fucking knew they were gonna pull this fucking shit.. i even waited till after both nintendo conferences to make sure they didn't announce the XL then went out and bought one.. they did this shit on purpose for people who were on the fence and wanted to wait till E3 was over.

goddamn you nintendo you devious sum bitches

 

[Eggplant Wizard]

Is there a link to the NoA video that isn't through Facebook?

 

[rpmurphy]

Link to NA Nintendo Direct? Ustream preferred!

 

[Bullza2o]

Wow this single ND is infinitely better than all of E3 combined.

 

[MarkusRJR]

DQX looks really bad. Ugly with a inconsistent frame rate. Will wait for Wii U version (if it ever comes to NA).

 

[Alexios]

DQ X looks good!

Yep. Don't get the haters at all as far as the visuals go. Great art style as every DQ and scale on par with Xenoblade. Don't see how anyone could expect better out of the Wii. As for frame rate, even NSMB2 looked low, I'm sure it's better outside ND streams.

 

[ZenaxPure]

Uh.

Can not unsee, oh god.

[leroidys]

Can we swap NoJ and NoA parent trap style?

Wow 3DS XL! I wonder if it'll still fit in my pockets...
