Nintendo 3DS Direct 3rd Party Publisher Games (2014.7.11)

Why doesn't NoA do one for the 3rd party games here.
Persona Q, Story of Seasons, Theatrhythm, Monster Hunter 4, eShop games, and announcements would be an ok stream.

Besides Monster Hunter 4, nothing got promoted during E3.

Fantasy Life? Not really that much covered but they announced several new 3DS titles during E3 event.

But with the recent pattern of Directs, I'm sure some will get a 3DS Direct for NA/EU, just like how Tomodachi life got one.

i think fantasy life was too, but you're right.
 
Fantasy Life and Professor Layton vs Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney are being published by Nintendo.
Though I suppose the latter wasn't on during Treehouse (as far as I can remember).
Plus more Fantasy Life promotion wouldn't hurt either.

This is a JP only Direct and those two are only by Nintendo in NA (and EU?).

I hope they have a nice amount of new games and not too many games we all know about already, worse is when they focus on a game that's right around the corner.

I hope so too

I remember posting something like this in an old MC thread. 3DS is the leading system in sales but it sure as hell isn't getting a lot of stuff announced for it like it should be.
 
I'm going with Bravely Second and Great Ace Attorney. It's about time for the first one - summer is here.

Guess I'll watch live :S
 
Contemplating getting up at 6am to watch a Direct in a language I can't understand, showing games I'll probably never play.

But then I'm like it's Nintendo. Anything could happen.
 
DQ11. I can feel it.

Nope, Squeenix is going to keep it to one of their press conference/events, and they would have teased it beforehand.

At best, expect a new spin-off, maybe a brand new Dragon Quest Monsters... but nothing more.
 
Who will host this though?

A third party direct needs to be hosted by a third party host.

Wasn't the case with a similiar Direct they had quite a while ago.

And which host would it be? Why would, for example, someone from Square-Enix talk about games by Marvelous or Atlus?

Maybe they'll just have several hosts, one for each publisher? Who knows.
 
So this will essentially be full of JRPGs that either won't ever come out here or won't until 2017?

Exactly.

Basically, this is the big "Fuck yo couch, western gamers"-Direct with some quality games being shown that we will never be able to play because a) they won't be localized and b) Nintendo's region lock on the 3DS and honestly

I'm excited for it
 
Still slowly waiting to buy a system. Hope this leads to more incentive to own one :)

You do know the 3DS already has a pretty decent selection of quality games, right? If what's on offer currently isn't enough reason for you, then what is?
 
Well I'm already awake so I might as well watch this. I know I said before I wouldn't be excited but I am a little bit. Betting there's probably a handful of games we'll see in the west from this thing.
