3DS confirmed dead for 3rd parties in the West.

gg

Since I won't run out of good Nintendo games to play on the system, I genuinely don't care about what western 3rd parties are doing on it.

 

[Coolwhip]

Nintendo really went beast mode on 3DS... gatdamn!

 

[Ydahs]

The Wii U section is disgusting. Where the fuck are the first party games??

They specifically said they're showing content from non-Nintendo developers releasing soon on the 3DS and WiiU.

I guess we'll have to wait for E3 to see footage of Nintendo's titles.

 

[FLAguy954]

Grrrrrrr FUCKING SQUARE ENIX, I WANT BRAVELY DEFAULT!

Spoiler

T~T

 

[Javier]

DKCR3D is the same game? That kinda sucks.

 

[qizah]

Nintendo. You make me poor as fuck.

But thank you <3.

 

[AlphaTwo00]

Just me, or does Most Wanted look like shit? So much pop-in.

The Cars on the road? That's the co-driver mode: other players can turn on/off the ai cars

 

[Beermeister]

Nothing interesting.

 

[Mazzo]

Donkey Kong Returns No Waggle Edition? Best version confirmed.

 

[Bjoern the Smexy]

Donkey Kong 3DS? MEGATON!

It's only a model port.

 

[Glass Rebel]

Square-Enix can suck a big one. Where is Bravely Default.

 

[redmetal86]

wait, is EU getting a white 3ds?

 

[Rootbeer]

Pretty happy with the reveals and previews. Obviously not the bomshell of the last direct but there's no way they can lay down such awesome info each and every time so regularly. It's going to be a great year for 3DS owners. For Wii U... I'm still up in the air on that one.

 

[tkscz]

no metroid or majora.

DKC:R 3D makes up for it for me

 

[ZeroGravity]

This is painful right. The Wii U has nothing.

Welcome to every new system ever.

 

[Galang]

A lot more announced today than I expected.

Just wish more 3DS XL colors were coming

 

[Effect]

DKC is only a remake of the Wii game? Bah. Hype gone. I have it for Wii already.

That said, nearly everything else looked fantastic.

The only disappointing thing for me out of the direct and mainly because I have DKCR on the Wii and I've yet to actually open it. I know crazy but when I got I had a few other things and totally forgot I even had it for a while. Going to tackle it when I have my vacation this spring.

 

[Bidermaier]

I <3 nintendo in panic mode It is like an E3 every few weeks

 

[Kouriozan]

Aw still missing the LOCALIZATIONS, what are you doing? >.<
But this ND was still very good.

 

[Mlatador]

DONKEY KONG COUNTRY RETURNS 3D FOR EUROPE THIS SUMMER!!!!!

 

[Enzon]

DONKEY KONG FOR THE 3DS <3 YAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSS. That's the only thing i wanted, i don't have a Wii so this is the first time i'm gonna play that game. Last minute redeemed the first 36 for me

 

[EatChildren]

The definitive version of DKCR is Wii with homebrew remapping waggle to a button on the classic controller.

 

[tolkir]

2013 Nintendo Directs are awesome.

 

[bobbychalkers]

This direct has been great for the 3DS and meh for the Wii U. That third party reel was pretty bad. I was at least expecting at least a new game or two for it.

 

[Jarekx]

Well, the new Mario and Luigi game seems cool, as well as luigi DLC for NSMBU. I'll always be disappointed until we get localization announcements for Fantasy Life, DQ7, and Bravely Default though.

 

[Negator]

*Bravely Default featured nowhere*

Well, fuck.

 

[dragonflys545]

Nothing on the Wii U... Doomed!

 

[Spiffy_1st]

Omg, when? I by a ticket now!

when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when

May something

They're doing more shows all across Europe again.

 

[Sinthetic]

DK stealing Luigi's thunder right at the finale.

 

[Portugeezer]

Those final announcements were disappointing.

Mario vs Donkey Kong, okay, not Bravely Default, then one final announcement... Donkey Kong game on 3DS, I was like fuck no Bravely Default, but then like fuck yeah a Donkey Kong game... then they show it's a port of the Wii game... FUUUUUUUUUUU!

 

[Sialeeds]

I'm really sad. Not even an announcement for DQ VII in Europe.

 

[khaaan]

Sony better step it up on the 20th or this will have taken a tonne of their heat away.

I asked earlier but I think it got lost in the craziness but:
I have a unregistered 3DS XL that I was saving for later to get the extra coins. I'm already an elite with Club Nintendo for this year so would adding another item now count towards become elite for next year or will those coins effectively be lost?

 

[Sn4ke_911]

Nothing interesting.

I told you.

 

[Busaiku]

Dang, no Fantasy Life.

 

[BGBW]

My body... wasn't ready...

 

[javac]

Thanks for watching and happy gaming!

Also, Neogaf crashes, everywhere!

 

[TreasureHunterG]

Nintendo is milking the hell out of the Mario franchise isn't it?

 

[Oersted]

Just me or did Shibata stop in the middle of a sentence?

 

[TheBaldEmperor]

Oh god, all this Nintendo Points (from Wii U eShop games) will go directly to MOnster HUnter 3 Ultimate.

One more purchase and will get a $50 usd activation code!

Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate / March 19th (my birthday! fcyea!)

It's my birthday, too! Just pre-ordered both versions yesterday!

 

[MrT-Tar]

I, for one, am just really happy that EOIV is having a PAL localisation (Nintendo did the first, but passed on the 2nd and 3rd after it bombed iirc). It's a series I've been meaning to get into, but have never got round to it.

 

[schuelma]

They specifically said they're showing content from non-Nintendo developers releasing soon on the 3DS and WiiU.

I guess we'll have to wait for E3 to see footage of Nintendo's titles.

I'm talking about games that were already supposed to be out! Pokemon, Wii Fit U, Wonderful 101..

 

[PreyingShark]

I've never played DKC:R. Should I just wait for this version?

 

[dmr87]

wait, is EU getting a white 3ds?

Oh yes.

 

[dkeane]

Mario Golf this summer is awesome!

Is there any news/screens of the NSMB U Add-on?

 

[Easy_D]

Why all the Zelda teasing, I hate you Nintendo ;(

 

[MagiusNecros]

*Bravely Default featured nowhere*

Well, fuck.

Square hates it's fanbase.

 

[pixlexic]

Must be a another good one. I see the trolls are starting to flood in.

got to get out of this meeting so I can watch

 

[dyergram]

They could at least give us the demo for fire emblem

 

[StreetsAhead]

DK video should be up on the JP Eshop.

 

[Shion]

So...insane Mario milking and a port from a 3 year old Wii game.

How exciting.
