Nintendo usually has 1 big new game announcement per Direct.

 

[NOLA_Gaffer]

Please guys, when did we start believing every fake rumors/leaks.

I'm noticing that myself, it's so odd. In the olden days every leak was treated like it was BS by principle but these days folks seem to just fall for everything.

 

[ChrisD]

YEEEEEES

I'll be sad the whole time, but I'm excited. First time we see Kimishima doing the ND, isn't it?

 

[JoeM86]

But this has SNES games on 3DS! That's as big a megaton as you can get.

I'll be very surprised if that happens. Yeah N3DS can handle it (3DS can't), but that architecture is dying. It'd be a waste of resources IMO.

YEEEEEES

Morimoto is presenting the Direct in Japan, Shibata in Europe.

 

[DrROBschiz]

Or still on Wii U and they're saving it for E3? Crazy, I know.

Why bury it under NX reveal though

Maybe cross gen as well?

This is all assuming this leak is legit

 

[Oddduck]

No international Nintendo Direct has come with no new game reveal. Come on guys.

This.

It doesn't make sense to have an international Nintendo Direct where the only surprise announcement is...SNES games on New 3DS?

 

[Josh5890]

on one hand, yay leaks. on the other hand, eh. Whatever happened to nintendo ninjas.

The ninjas don't care about this direct. Their main focus is on the holy grail that is the NX.

 

[Pancake Mix]

I had forgotten about Lost Reavers. That leak would make a lot of sense.

...they just reiterated DQ7 as a summer release a few weeks ago.

To clarify, NOA did. NOE never said it was a summer release for them.

 

[finalflame]

HOLY FUCKING SHIT LET'S GO. THE HYPE IS SO REAL.

Spoiler

realistically this will be mostly Zelda TP:HD and Federation Force.

 

[MK_768]

Paper Mario wil be a holiday title, probably with an NX version too.

So them waiting for an E3 reveal makes too much sense.

Wow. So much certainty in this post.

Slow down.

 

[Zalman]

There has to be more to the Direct that what's on that list. Everything except Star Fox and SNES on N3DS is already out in Japan.

 

[DrROBschiz]

Yeah but then it should fall under the window this direct is covering

Something is fucking weird about this

 

[Not75Drops]

YEEEEEES

Lol Kimishima probably won't have any presence in Directs. It looks like Reggie/Bill and Shibata will solely take care of Directs outside of Japan. While that Morimoto guy will replace Iwata in Japan full-time.

 

[cw_sasuke]

What the heck is Monster Hunter Generations

That sounds like a MHStories alternate than an MHX alternate name

MHX is a best off including villages from previous MH gens - so MH Generations makes sense. MH Stopries isnt even out in Japan - no way it will be announced for europe anytime soon.

 

[Nibel]

What if that NOE employee removed the new stuff?

 

[sir_bumble_bee]

I'm noticing that myself, it's so odd. In the olden days every leak was treated like it was BS by principle but these days folks seem to just fall for everything.

Nintendo has been painfully quite for the past 18 months, it's only natural people get excited when "rumors" appear online.

 

[Neoxon]

Regarding the rumour from N1ntendo I posted;



A fellow GAF'er who wishes to stay anonymous just PM'ed me and told me that Nintendo of Europe's Direct PR email is called "Little Bird Announcement Blast." If you check the file pic at the link it says "Littlebird_template". Little Bird seems to be the code name for the Direct.

We'll see tomorrow I guess.

Color me surprised for MHX. After MH4U, I was pretty damn sure that the same would happen with MHX. I mean, MHX could still get an Ultimate version on the NX Platform (much like 3 did, which got its base game on the Wii & an Ultimate version on future hardware). But either way, good news for us 3DS owners, I suppose. This is assuming that the leak is on the money. That being said, it'd be a shame if Paper Mario wasn't announced in this Direct.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

There has to be more to the Direct that what's on that list. Everything except Star Fox and SNES on N3DS is already out in Japan.

Truly, the Wii U release schedule is more anemic than previously hypothesized

What if that NOE employee removed the new stuff?

What if Nintendo removed the new stuff

"CRTL + F: 2D Metroid"

*delete*

 

[DrROBschiz]

MHX is a best off including villages from previous MH gens - so MH Generations makes sense. MH Stopries isnt even out in Japan - no way it will be announced for europe anytime soon.

Shit you got a point there

Im kind of hoping this is a fake leak now lol

 

[DownGrader]

Let's hope there is something in "_WIP" folder that just wasn't named and sorted.

 

[Kid Ying]

Most of the games on that leak are already out in Japan, so stay tuned on it to see if there is something new on the japanese stream to see if there is something new.

 

[MrV4ltor]

Why bury it under NX reveal though

Maybe cross gen as well?

This is all assuming this leak is legit

Or it's just Nintendo being Nintendo. The same company that has revealed games like Wonderful 101 after their conferences for no apparent reason.

 

[ch4fx_]

I'm hoping for something like that too. Any color, I just want a regular size n3DS

We have the Animal Crossing & Pokemom bundles if you can find them - but still, a stand alone option would be much better.

 

[BGBW]

 

[Neoxon]

Or still on Wii U and they're saving it for E3? Crazy, I know.

We're supposedly only getting one more unannounced Wii U exclusive, which is rumored to be Paper Mario U.

 

[TheSpaceBetween]

Tropical Freeze on 3DS, let's go

Plis this. Returns is still a great experience at 30fps. Also portable Wise soundtrack is always good.

About the leak, SNES games on 3DS sounds wonderful

Retro said it probably wouldn't be possible technically. And that's really not surprising considering they couldn't even port Returns without making sacrifices. I'd be all for porting it to NX though, more people need to play it.

 

[georly]

Nintendo has been painfully quite for the past 18 months, it's only natural people get excited when "rumors" appear online.

Uh...? 18 months? We've had an E3, tons of directs, and hundreds of youtube videos uploaded in the last 18 months. I don't think that counts as quiet.

Did you mean to write 'hours'?

Fake, everyone knows it's "super secret"

 

[Sterok]

the last Direct

Spoiler

remasters don't count

That still had Pokemon Picross.

 

[DownGrader]

Can we talk about "Star Fox Zero First Print Edition"?

 

[JoeM86]

Precisely

 

[richi_one]

Definitely Yokai Watch.
I hope they will announce EU release date for Fire Emblem Fates.

 

[DrROBschiz]

LMAO

bravo

 

[Zalman]

Paper Luigi Waffle Kingdom Adventures, heck yes.

 

[Ridley327]

Now I NEED to know what those photos are!

 

[Pinky]

Now THAT looks legit, lol!

That Zelda folder! XD

 

[JoeM86]

the last Direct

Spoiler

remasters don't count

That Direct revealed RGBY on the Virtual Console. It revealed Pokémon Picross. It revealed Twilight Princess HD. You may think "it doesn't count", but it does

 

[KingBroly]

I've wanted that Paper Luigi game since Thousand Year Door happened.

 

[NotLiquid]

You just had to go there with the Waffle Kingdom

 

[Already Torn]

That would be the first Mario and Sonic I'd ever buy, and that Federation Force announcement would save the Nintendo.

 

[dampflokfreund]

When was the last Direct without a new game announcement? I suppose Monster Hunter XG could count, but that's Capcom, not Nintendo.

November?

 

[kuroneko0509]

no waluigi game.. smh

 

[MrV4ltor]

Poor y'all still being in denial about the leak.

 

[Neiteio]

Spoiler

Looks legit

 

[oti]

I want them to announce the NX Direct A WHOLE WEEK before it airs. That week would be incredible on GAF.

 

[Akiraptor]

The Subtitle of Significance. I laughed.

 

[Oersted]

Please keep secret lol

 

[Otaku Coder]

If that EU shot is real (I'm skeptical to say the least) it could just be the stuff for the region-specific part (ie the bit where Shibata takes over).

 

[DrROBschiz]

I want them to announce the NX Direct A WHOLE WEEK before it airs. That week would be incredible on GAF.

How long has it been since this site imploded
lol

 

[L95]

What if that NOE employee removed the new stuff?

What if the leak is real, but all the new stuff removed, huh... what if the NOE direct just sucks?

 

[MrV4ltor]

I want them to announce the NX Direct A WHOLE WEEK before it airs. That week would be incredible on GAF.

I want them to drop that Direct onto YouTube out of nowhere and make the internet go crazy.
