Would love if they randomly announce Fire Emblem for North America this holiday season :3

Does anything other than Q and A ever come from these?

I'm looking at the 71st meeting and there was a 4 page Shareholder Q&A discussion with Iwata. Other than that, it doesn't look like we'll get any 3DS or Wii U related announcements.

Just got the email from Nintendo about this. According to them it's at 9PST which is 12EST, someone should fix the thread title.

 

[Plinko]

So what Wii news is expected?

3DS Flipnote already, c'mon Ninty!

 

[zroid]

well they'll probably detail the kirby collection, despite it already being revealed elsewhere.

 

[TrueBlue]

I'll wager this has something to do with those "exciting digital releases" that Nintendo Power teased a few days ago.

 

[AzaK]

What can we expect by experience from other meetings of this kind?

We might get a few more tidbits about the online network or NFC and things of that nature. But unlikely to hear anything about big third party games etc

I really should keep a catalogue of Nintendo bits and pieces cause I can never find them again when I need them.

 

[cacildo]

They will announce that Wii Speak was really a pratical joke

The topic has the time that it is because... it's for the Japanese Nintendo Direct, which is an hour before Reggie shows up. :V

 

[EmCeeGramr]

Wii Vitality Sensor is back, and hotter than ever!

Ahhhh, thanks for the info.

 

[Glix]

Playing MGS on my Vita makes me think about how sick it would be for a Sniping game.

 

[BishopLamont]

I'm still baffled by Iwata's bananas.

Donkey Kong Country Returns 2: Primal Rage for Wii, controlled by Vitality Sensor.

 

[Hale-XF11]

Mario Kart Wii U to be played with real bananas.

Donkey Kong Country Returns 2: Primal Rage for Wii, controlled by Vitality Sensor.

You have the vitality sensor on your third leg, have to keep it pumped up!

Dun dun dun duuuuuun!


XD

 

[Hiltz]

After E3, I'm keeping my expectations very low, especially if this is just mostly for Wii and 3DS/Pokemon Black & White 2 news.

 

[RelentlessRolento]

Just focus on eShop and have some immediate releases n I'm happy

 

[boyshine]

The GBC port is okay, but I didn't enjoy it as much as the Land games. Donkey Kong Land is a really underrated gem on the Game Boy in my opinion. I loved those temple levels.

aaaaand... as opposed to the Country series the third game is by far the best. Donkey Kong Land 3 might be my favourite GB game.

 

[Terrell]

Pandora's Tower announced for NA on Wii in October for limited retail release, with an eShop release on WiiU for launch. That's my guess. I'm likely wrong on that, though.
But yeah, I think we're gonna hear about retail DD pricing with some DD titles approaching release semi-soon.

I don't think you should be expecting uncharted...that has like a 5% chance of happening.

Supposedly Uncharted 4 will be a launch title for the Wii U and that Majora's Mask teaser we saw, it was real.

Also a 3D remake of LTTP is coming to the 3DS and monoliths new game is Skies of Arcadia 2.

Did I mention Nintendo is going to announce that they bought Sega and SE out. Which is why we haven't heard of Versus much since it has been taken over by Retro studios and turned into it's own franchise.

Platinum is secretly making Bayo 2 for the Wii U. P-100 is just smoke and mirrors.

Japanese press conferences were more exciting when nintendo had a region free system.

[Brazil]

MYSTICAL NINJA 3 GO GO GOEMON.

Well, the Japanese eShop did get the two GB Goemon games over the past few weeks...

 

[Wiseblade]

Etrian Odyssey 4 confirmed for EU! Fire Emblem: Awakeneing EU release date announced! Mother 3 announced for VC in all regions!

None of these things will happen!

Oh you guys.

 

[BlackJace]

Show me what you got, Ninty.

*grabs seat*

 

[Nekki]

I expect some sort of system update to be announced

 

[StreetsAhead]

I expect some sort of system update to be announced

Folder colours!

 

[TheUnknownForce]

Supposedly it will be 53 minutes long and bonus stuff will play for 11 minutes.

From twitter, so who knows.

Expectations:
Wii - Kirby Collection, Dragon Quest X blowout
3DS - 1-2 new eShop games, Culdcept remention, NSMB2 emphasis, games Sept-Oct

It should be okay.

 

[EloquentM]

Wow, Usually these threads would be to 20+ pages by now.

 

[chris3116]

I can see for the Wii side :

Dragon Quest X
A worldwide Wii price cut (maybe next week to be announced)

3DS :

A repeat of games at E3 with release dates for Japan
Maybe new games

 

[Bo130]

Is it correct that the Japan Nintendo Direct is in 2½ hours and the other two regions first is in 4½ hours?

 

[Conor 419]

Wow, Usually these threads would be to 20+ pages by now.

E3 fatigue, it's a thing.

Add in some Brain Training and Pokemon and I'm there (for the Japanese one, anyway)

Wow, Usually these threads would be to 20+ pages by now.

E3 confirmed that Nintendo is only working on games they will release up until April next year, doesn't care about its fans, and has no surprises to reveal again, ever.

 

[DarkLegion]

Wow, Usually these threads would be to 20+ pages by now.

I guess after E3 we're not expecting much :/

 

[EloquentM]

E3 fatigue, it's a thing.

Pre-E3 nintendo direct was awesome though!
