Monster Hunter 4G Direct announced for Wednesday
- Thread starter L~A
- Start date
I don't want to spam this topic, but I absolutely agree.
should I open a topic to rant about the lack of a global Wii U direct since E3?

Bring it!
Saturday can't come soon enough. N3DS & MH4G all over my face!!

This is actually them following the latest usual pattern, i.e. Directs for games near their release dates, we've seen this trend starting back in April and they're keeping on doing it, it's nothing so unexpected.
Still, it's true we're due to a new global Direct with Wii U infos. It's probably pretty near, though, just to give SSB's official release date, but not just that.

Damn , gonna need to bring headphones at my IT course Wednesday then, so I can listen to it during breaks.
Excited to learn about announcements, surely about monster unveiling and DL quests.

Awesome! I was expecting a Wii U one, but this is also great. Now, c'mon and show us more Chameleos.
That's got nothing to do with "patterns"... they did the same last year for Monster Hunter 4 (Direct on Sept. 8, release on the 14). They announced the Link/Mario costumes during that Direct, last year.
I see where you're coming at, but I don't think it follows that pattern you talk about, because it's way too close to release. And last year, MH4 actually got another Direct, in July (with Ace Attorney 5).
Makes you wonder what they'll reveal this time around (other than the launch trailer, obviously

True, but this year we've seen quite a lot of specific-games-only Directs compared to 2013, and this is a continuation of that trend, I suppose.

Yep, I'm expecting one late october or early november to highlight holiday season and give a glimpse of 2015 line-up.
I would be really disappointed if it was a Smash only direct.
On-topic, I just want a western release date fr MH4G.

They had a Direct focused on Hyrule Warriors (Wii U game) in August, and a Direct focused on Bayonetta 2 (Wii U game) in September. Since the E3, they also shared a lot of information about Wii U games (outside Directs), such as Mario Kart 8 DLC, Sonic Boom release date, and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U.
My life cant handle a WiiU version anytime soon. The 3G.. Man.. It ate so many hours.

I want the real direct, wheres the release dates for rest of 2014, wheres release date for early 2015??
Ridley is more likely to make it in monhun over smash.
Considering the Captain Toad delay into early 2015, I can see the next Wii U Direct being a Smash Wii U Direct (with amiibos).
I'm really disappointed by Nintendo post E3 Wii U treatment.

Not the direct I expect, but more information is always a good thing.

Or you just happen to be in the wrong region I guess. I'm quite satisfied and I can't wait to upgrade my Wii U with the New Wii U anyway.
It's a repeat of last year. We'll get a SSB 4 Wii U Direct and we won't get any date for 2015 until after Toad.

God, yes. I´d double dip like I did with 3U again.
Around the same time Capcom announces RErebirth for the WiiU.

Yup, pretty much this. I can see a Wii U announcement around the western release at the earliest.They're not gonna announce a Wii U version during this Direct, not right before the launch of the 3DS version... which also happens to be the poster child of the N3DS (which is the central piece of Nintendo's end-of-year offensive in Japan).
This really is a repeat of last year
Honestly, I'm not even expecting a Wii U announcement, period. Though if there was one, it would indeed be in 2015, and not before.
I'd be okay with this.
That's pretty much the same time as the lunar eclipse, lol.
Looks like I'll be waiting for a little while before seeing this, as I'll be out watching the sky.

I added the times and the countdown into the OP of the MH4G-Thread and linked to this one as well, I hope you don't mind.
I can see this happening. Do we know of MH themed faceplates for the New 3DS yet? If not they're likely to be announced during the N3DS talk methinks.

Release Date hype?

what I'm hoping for, but if it does happen I don't expect it this year and certainly not right before 4G's release.
