On one hand, I hope this makes up for Nintendo's woeful E3 showing and we see some noteworthy new titles for a system that desperately needs them.

On the other hand this is Nintendo, and they still have Super Mario 3D World, Mario Kart 7, Kid Icarus: Uprising, Luigi's Mansion 2, and numerous other third party titles unreleased. It wouldn't put it past them to pimp the exact same games all over again.

 

[Foffy]

Honestly how hard would any of you laugh if that second analog rumour turns out true. 01net would become the new gospel.

I'd laugh and be mad. I could handle paying $250 and having the price drop after launch, but I'd be livid if the model I had would be incompatible with future software in a way.

I hated the DSi and DSiXL for those reasons, even if the exclusive things were pretty terrible.

11pm EST on Sept 12? *checks calendar* Phew. It's after my first Physics exam. I'll definitely be there.

You're right...

Keeping expectations low for now.

 

[TheNatural]

Is this 3DS only, or is going to be other Nintendo stuff?

 

[Wario64]

oops I have forgot

PLEASE help me to merge the thread or close this thread, thanks !

I like your thread better. Just put that timer countdown into your first post

This is supposed to be their annual Nintendo conference usually in early October which is pretty much new game announcements for the next year. This year Nintendo pushed it up to mid September with a 3DS theme (due to the code red).

 

[EatChildren]

You know that's what this will be.

[Door2Dawn]

Nintendo 3DS new product announcement?

Wow that could mean anything. New software or new hardware? What will it be?

 

[legacyzero]

You're right...

Keeping expectations low for now.

Yep. Is it weird to be physically worried that Nintendo isn't gonna do anything to finally draw me in?

 

[LiK]

shuttupshuttupshuttup

!!!

 

[Dedication Through Light]

I hope its Pokemon Battle Revolution/Mystery Dungeon and Fire Emblem/Golden Sun. I may try to watch.

 

[antonz]

Wouldnt make much sense to hype a conference as New Announcements and just show old E3 things. It certainly wouldnt be exciting investors as said

 

[BurntPork]

No, that's for next year. This year they'll announce the nub peripheral.

And they'll show the secret button that makes 3DS grow a port for it?

This will be all about software. If they're streaming it, it must be big.

 

[WillyFive]

Physically worried?

 

[watershed]

I'm hoping to be surprised and impressed.

Edit: Does that clock mean 8pm Tuesday the 12th on the west coast?

 

[MasterShotgun]

Oh shit, I just noticed that it said "new product announcement". It could still either mean new software or that second nub. I'm leaning towards second nub. Whatever happens, it better be good.

 

[Boney]

Yep. Is it weird to be physically worried that Nintendo isn't gonna do anything to finally draw me in?

yes

 

[Jinfash]

An Advanced Wars and/or Fire Emblem announcement would make me a pretty happy Ambassador. It's about time.

Other than that...it will be really damning if Nintendo comes out with a redesigned 3DS. Early adopters, and new 3DS owners who've bought it at the new low price on 8/12 would feel cheated and wronged.

If you're a stockholder, it's perfectly fine.

Otherwise, maybe.

 

[Gospel]

Physically worried?

maybe he made a bet with someone saying that nintendo couldn't draw him in. if he loses the bet, he gets sent to the shadow realm.

you know, like in yugioh.

 

[Pyrokai]

I don't want the second nub. There I said it.

 

[Sennorin]

So, setting aside the bs-01.net-rumors: What new games would you like to see announced at this conference?

Stuff I´d like to see:

- Monster Hunter as the rumored "extremely big announcement"
- The next generation of Pokemon (maybe only screen or two, NOT a grey edition)
- Endless Ocean 3/Forever Blue 3 (would look amazing in 3D, I´m convinced about that)
- A Metroid-game (Preferably a Prime-style title, since 3DS has all the input options the GameCube had. But Other M 2 would be welcome, too)
- Picross 9D P)
- A major firmware update, introducing messaging with friends and a more comfortable structure for the eShop and your downloaded games (folders!)

 

[Gravijah]

guys... we could get new information on ANIMAL CROSSING 3DS!

YES!

- The next generation of Pokemon (maybe only screen or two, NOT a grey edition)

so, RSE remakes. because we're not seeing anything on gen 6 anytime soon.

 

[Boney]

guys... we could get new information on ANIMAL CROSSING 3DS!

YES!

No more ports please

 

[VOOK]

No more ports please

too late.

 

[TunaLover]

There will be another event for Wii U?

 

[BurntPork]

Yes, but since it's Nintendo it must automatically be assumed that it will suck. It also makes GAF sad when good things happen to 3DS, the worst gaming hardware ever created.

 

[Gospel]

I don't want the second nub. There I said it.

Neither do i personally. but i do want it if it means it gets 3rd party developers comfortable with adapting more games for the thing.

 

[watershed]

Yep.

Thanks, awesome I won't have to stay up or wake up early to listen to Iwata and company speak Japanese and hopefully see some cool new games! Does anyone think Nintendo will release a English subtitled version of the video after or a transcript or something?

 

[Nessus]

- A Metroid-game (Preferably a Prime-style title, since 3DS has all the input options the GameCube had. But Other M 2 would be welcome, too)

Or, y'know, Metroid 5, a true 2D sequel to Metroid Fusion.

Give it really deep parallax backgrounds that show off the 3D effect well.

Plus, it wouldn't require a huge budget.

 

[Gravijah]

metroid is dead. bury it next to f-zero.

Bolded most likely ones. A firmware update could include anything, so I won't make predictions on it. If Pokemon happens, it will not be Gen 6. It would either be RSE remakes or Pokemon Grey.

EDIT: And if it's Metroid, give us Metroid Dread. We know it exists. Unleash it upon us.

Whoa, sounds like you're already bargaining. I thought we agreed that it would be virtually impossible.

 

[Duxxy3]

Gameboy 2 confirmed!

 

[Refugio]

Hope for a new game from Sakamoto's team. A sidescroller would be nice as they haven't made one of those in awhile.

 

[hoverboarder]

Nintendo knows they need to pull out the big guns. Third person 3D Pokemon adventure? It's time.

 

[Guevara]

Gameboy 2 confirmed!

How I wish it were so.

Third Pillar Strategy returns.

You're awesome.

The world would be flooded by sticky white stuff from Nintendo-fans if that ever happens. Aka, it´ll remain a dream forever

 

[Dead Prince]

please bring back the printer.

 

[Gospel]

Whoa, sounds like you're already bargaining. I thought we agreed that it would be virtually impossible.

i'm just talking hypothetically.

there's no overlooking the fact that there's no extension slot to allow an extra slide pad. and even if there was a way to get one on there, you'd still have to take it off when you want to close the system which is super totally mega dumb.
