Then you calmly reply that there wasn't really any reason to expect anything exciting from this event? I don't know why you're getting worked up about this.
I'm sorry I can't stand the absurdity. It was already there when people bitched about no Vita news during the PS4 Reveal. What the hell.
And those Directs are happening far more often.
At least bitch for something real and true.
None of those. It was almost a complete waste of time.
I'm not sure if this level of animosity is really necessary. The argument being presented here is that the "event" nature of a Nintendo Direct suggests something more eventful than humdrum news. You think that it's their channel to communicate to end users however they desire, and that's fine. But I don't think people hoping for good news are complete nincompoops for hoping that such an "event" carries with it news worth being excited about, particularly given the current dire situation of the Wii U.
yesDo people complaining about this Direct lack reading and comprehension skills?
I think that's just a vocal minority. Most people seem to get it.You realize E3 is less than one month away, right? Again, E3 is less than one month away.
Nintendo has already mentioned that there will be a substantial Direct around the time of E3, which is coming in less than a month. It seems as if GAF lacks the ability to think and bring some foresight to the table before deciding to grab the pitchforks...ESPECIALLY when it comes to Nintendo. I truly don't see what you were expecting other than some new footage and solid release dates this go around. And quite frankly, that's fine.
My only question is: Where is Wii Fit U or Wii Play U?

I did bitch about something "real and true", you didn't care. If this Direct was as packed as the one with X, there would be far less "absurdity," but it wasn't.

I am also disappointed it just seems so basic now. I also recall that the items were used to enhance various parts of the game like captain olimars suit NAD upgrading the ship etc..Am I the only one really disappointed by the choice to focus on collecting fruit in the next pikmin?
I loved all those trinkets and parody descriptions of real items....

where is summer update rundown and wind waker?
First of all, no, I don't know what this E3 is. Thank you for the update.
Second of all -- with that bit of derisive sarcasm out of the way -- I wasn't really expecting anything. This event is probably about on par with what I figured it would be. I'm just making the case that -- in general -- I understand where people are coming from when they expect big news to drop at a moment's notice. Did you hear those NPD numbers yesterday? Because if you didn't -- and I'll just assume that you might not have since that's apparently the game we're playing as evidenced by you reminding me of E3 being next month -- they're awful. Some may be of the mindset that they don't have the luxury of just sitting around waiting for the big events to come to start tipping their hand and generating buzz.

is "going to sell my wii u" some kind of meme now? i seen it being spammed all over 4chan while GAF was down
But it wasn't the point of the Direct. If this Direct was all there was for E3 or if they said "Summer games will now be released on winter" then I'd agree.
Are you serious? They fucking told you what was going to be in the Direct.I did bitch about something "real and true", you didn't care. If this Direct was as packed as the one with X, there would be far less "absurdity," but it wasn't.

When it's less than a month from the biggest gaming event of the year and you've already revealed a significant portion of your hand out of desperation already (that January Direct), then restraining yourself from blowing it all out weeks early and ruining your E3 doesn't exactly seem like indulging in a luxury.
My only question is: Where is Wii Fit U or Wii Play U?

Dude...NINTENDO
NoA needs a slap in the head.
EVERY SINGLE GAME is coming out at least a week+ later than in other regions, some games even months. WHY?!?!
Although the biggest bombshell is easily that Best Buy E3 promotion... because that raises the very real possibility of a playable Smash 4 demo in just a month. And that might be too much for my meager mortal mind to handle.

I guess I'm fundamentally in agreement with Ninja Scooter then, "This Nintendo Direct didn't need to exist." I don't expect megatons, but I do expect something "more" then what was shown, perhaps a preview to their E3/Fall show, but they just cut the thing off, and thats where I'm salty.
