Excited for this one!

IceDoesntHelp · May 16, 2013

That's too far.

Kouriozan · May 16, 2013

This one will be the MEGATON Direct.

Skiesofwonder · May 16, 2013

This is the one that really excites me. I'm guessing the week before E3.

Edit: wasn't aware that you were already making a thread BY2K

Joqu · May 16, 2013

Now this is the one where the good stuff will be at!

Father_Brain · May 16, 2013

So will this be on the morning of June 11, when they'd normally have had their E3 press conference, or a few days earlier?

Gambit · May 16, 2013

This is the more important one.

Hope it's E3-conference-sized

Wiz · May 16, 2013

I expect many bombs.

TheCongressman1 · May 16, 2013

Please be understanded.

I'm excited.

If I was Nintendo I would put it before the other two conferences to avoid all information overload that will be the unveiling of PS4/720.

Bad idea. That means any coverage on sites will get pushed to the bottom. Releasing at the same time or after means their coverage is the lastest on various gaming sites. You have to go through Wii U information to get to PS4 and new Xbox information.

I would think so as well, but they do have that small-scale press presentation as well as the larger retailer/publisher presentation on the 11th.

Yup, they must be preparing some bombs for Fall and Winter. Repeating the 3DS success, especially within families and people enjoying casual-ish games.

takriel · May 16, 2013

No love for the 3DS?

AnbaLeumas · May 16, 2013

I hope to see good stuff. My brothers Wii U doesn't get as much love as I was expecting.

Volotaire · May 16, 2013

This is the Direct. The Direct that will make you cry.

Almost every Direct was for the 3DS lol.

Azure J · May 16, 2013

So fucking hyped son.

JDSN · May 16, 2013

I thought NIntendo pulled completely from E3 and cancelled the 3DS.

I was hoping they revealed a date, but oh well

Can't fucking wait anyway. I hope this is huge!

You can never have enough 3DS, good sir. Not with Pokémon and Zelda on the horizon!

StreetsAhead · May 16, 2013

NCL also reiterated there would be a Direct in Japan around E3 to deal with titles releasing from Fall onwards.

We all know it's going to be around E3 time, I was hopping they were going to announce a date.

Dantis · May 16, 2013

Make me care, Nintendo.

If they don't announce anything good at this one, it might be time for me to just sell off my Wii U.

Diddy Kong · May 16, 2013

Bombs away!

you mean the ps4 thats already been unvieled and the 720 that gets unveiled this week? they'll be old news by e3

Depends on the team that's developing. I'm only a fan of SMT games from Nocturne onwards.

daripad · May 16, 2013

I'll wait and see what Nintendo can bring. When does E3 starts? June 9? I think I'll be free of school by that time.

Tuck · May 16, 2013

Makes sense. So I wouldn't expect much from the one tomorrow.

roddur · May 16, 2013

i'm ready to be disappointed

I should have put "fully unveiled". They might be old news on June 5th, but what will they be on June 10th? Old news during a Megaton-filled gaming explosion. Not many are going to care what Nintendo is announcing when in two hours we will get our first substantial hands-on reports from the 720/PS4.

A week before would mean they have the whole week to themselves, and Tuesday (June 10th) will still be filled with Nintendo news via the retailers/distributors meetings and hands-on from the show-floor.

Usobuko · May 16, 2013

Just give me W101 first, I'll buy a Wii U just for that game to tide me over.

Lunar15 · May 16, 2013

I'm coming for Retro. There better be some Retro. I honestly don't even care if it is Mario Kart they're working on.

Also, I won't believe any dates they reveal during the direct. We're still in the "launch window" right now, right?

while what i said was meant tongue in cheak ms and sony have taken 'some' of the impact out of e3 that they could've had, so it boils down to what games each of the 3 show

Retro is confirmed, said retro's game will be unveiled shortly.

http://www.officialnintendomagazine...nterview-retro-are-impressed-with-the-remake/

If Retro aren't making Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D, what are they making? Does it involve a certain bounty hunter?

HY: I wonder what kind of game it is? I hope to introduce it to you in the not so distant future.

Beermeister · May 16, 2013

~~Launch window.~~ Fall relaunch window. Please understand.

vareon · May 16, 2013

Excuse me, is this the train where they will drop the bombs?

Possible, but after last year (biggest E3 letdown ever), I'm not getting my hopes up until and unless Nintendo explicitly confirms an E3 showing.
