The Iwata bomb was Nintendo is developing a new 3D Brain-Age. Kind of significant news. Just disappointing to others.

 

[Xun]

What's up with the Reggie avatars?

 

[Medalion]

Not really. I mean, yes, they do- but my expectations were very low. I was at least hoping for some new paper mario/luigi's mansion info.

That's why we still have 2 more conferences left, Europe and North America

 

[khefka]

Mickey Mouse VA was really painful to listen to, not that I care about KH anyways.

 

[Alexios]

Fire Emblem and Fatal Frame were worth it. For others also Etrian Odyssey 4 and Rune Factory 4. And really curious about the Capcom/Sega/Namco game(s?). Good stuff all around, not sure what everyone expected if this is considered a bad presentation...

 

[Effect]

Some of us were saying that the hype needed to be dialed down. I enjoyed it in the end and wonder what the US Direct will have. The last time it was done some different things were covered. This Kingdom Hearts video is selling me on the game though. Haven't played since the first game. Looking forward to the new Brain Training game as well. Not even holding out hope for the Fatal Frame game though but I expect Fire Emblem.

I do worry that the other Kingdom Hearts games will be required to understand what the hell is going on.

 

[AceBandage]

Kingdom Hearts looks really good.

 

[RPG_Fanatic]

The only disappointing thing for me was the lack of luigi's mansion 2/Paper Mario footage/info.

 

[jump_button]

Iam still happy most of us know we where over hyping it

 

[Vermillion]

Haha, and now begins the inevitable hype backlash.

Surely, you must have known that this was going to happen.

 

[DefectiveReject]

Some kind of Resi Evil crossover??

 

[Lausebub]

What's up with the Reggie avatars?

Hello, Blitz!

 

[DECK'ARD]

FFVII will obviously be announced when 3DS passes 7 million in Japan not 5!

 

[sfried]

Didn't really see anything i'm interested in, besides whatever that SEGA/Capcom/Bandai Namco thing is.

Kid Icarus seems like it'll rake in a lot of sales.

Classy RHF avatar.

Spoiler

Where'd you get it?

Although Nintendo + Capcom + Sega + Namco Bandai developed by Banpresto could only mean one thing:

Super Video Game Taisen.

 

[fabricated backlash]

it was to be expected honestly.

This thread was massively fun though.

 

[Metallix87]

The most disappointing part was the lack of DQ7 remake...

 

[sorijealut]

Fire Emblem and Fatal Frame were worth it. For others also Etrian Odyssey 4 and Rune Factory 4. And really curious about the Capcom/Sega/Namco game(s?). Good stuff all around, not sure what everyone expected if this is considered a bad presentation...

Yeah no, this was a stellar one.
FE alone was worth it for me. Love the art.
Rolling Western releasing today?

 

[zroid]

I cannot get excited for this KH game. As much as I want to, it just isn't happening.

 

[IrishNinja]

Oh well.
...
ALL ABOARD FOR GDC

my bags will just stay packed. do we have a timer going?

 

[SpiffyG]

The only disappointing thing for me was the lack of luigi's mansion 2/Paper Mario footage/info.

Those are what I was looking forward to the most, too.

 

[BGBW]

1pm CET!

[AB12]

Nice trailers. goodbye.

 

[donny2112]

i guess we got the super secret capcomxsegaxbanpresto teaser?

http://pxz.channel.or.jp/

.

 

[Billy Lee]

So basically the whole point of this was just to troll the PS Vita launch.

 

[Gomu Gomu]

I think they just showed the entirety of KH 3DS lol.

 

[eXistor]

Some damn cool games shown, shame almost none of them will make it over here (I need my Game Center fix dammit! Best damn game on the DS).

 

[Medalion]

See u at the Europe stream next

 

[wrowa]

I'm pretty sure most people were just having fun hyping it. We all know that Nintendo Direct isn't the place to drop some bombs.

 

[AceBandage]

The most disappointing part was the lack of DQ7 remake...

It continues to allude us...

 

[?oe?oe]

I've got a feeling Reggie will spill the beans on the Capcom/Sega/Namco game. Get ready guys. Nintendo are implementing the one-two punch!

 

[squall23]

Although Nintendo + Capcom + Sega + Namco Bandai developed by Banpresto could only mean one thing:

Super Video Game Taisen.

Your logic. I understand and agree with it.

 

[EloquentM]

So basically the whole point of this was just to troll the PS Vita launch.

lol I'm pretty sure that was the idea

 

[Bo130]

European one is a best of..

 

[tsab]

http://www.nintendo.co.uk/NOE/en_GB/news/nintendo_direct_47764.html
it starts

 

[SolarPowered]

I trusted you, GAF...

D:

 

[guek]

Fire Emblem
Mario Tennis Open
Etrian Odyssey 4
Rune Factory 4
Kingdom Hearts

It had some good stuff. The only thing it was really missing was a bomb. A single big surprising game would have left a better taste in a lot of people's mouths. People wanted megatons, not a solid slew of software.

 

[Mistle]

NOE stream started, same thing with subs

 

[DECK'ARD]

So basically the whole point of this was just to troll the PS Vita launch.

The point of it was this thread.

 

[IrishNinja]

Those are what I was looking forward to the most, too.

animal crossing, maybe theaterhytmn or whatever, but yeah, mostly those 2.
if NOA conference gives dates, ill call it a wash in my book.

 

[Box of Bunnies]

The best thing about these is the people that don't realise that all the silly hyperbole is done in jest and instead get caught up in the hype and earnestly expect ze bomb droppen. Never fails.

 

[ToastyBanana]

See u at the Europe stream next

The EU stream is just the Japanese one with English subs.

 

[Diprosalic]

the european one started. with english subs this time.

 

[DGRE]

That's some awfully shitty logic.

Yeah the logic contained in your response is infallible.

 

[radioheadrule83]

What's up with the Reggie avatars?

Highlights for me:

Kid Icarus online looks really good, but also really insane and frantic.
Amazing Fire Emblem trailer
DQM looked nicer than screens
NES World Cup style online soccer game
Horrible Capcom x SEGA x Bamco / Banpresto teaser thing I want to know more


Hopefully there's some Western relevant news in the Euro / US feeds

 

[pramath]

Has the EU stream begun?

 

[also]

''Welcome to Nintendo Direct! Find out all the latest Nintendo news right here! Start by watching our main video of Satoru Iwata presenting to the Japanese market on Feb 22nd, 2012. Our subtitled video delivers the most important updates and news for Europe and gives you an insight into what to expect in the coming months. Come back after the video is finished for more European news and updates!''

No EU version yet.

 

[Foffy]

Euro stream seems to be a highlight reel, so we'll see what misses the boat for localization.

It's also in American English. Is this going to the same for the NA release?

 

[Medalion]

The EU stream is just the Japanese one with English subs.

see u at the na in 2 hrs then

 

[ScreenSplitter]

Wait, does this mean the majority of all that crazy Japanese shit will be coming to Europe?

 

[Mistle]

whoa, sakurai now speaks fluent english with no accent!
