Support NeoGAF

[Why would you do that?]

I'm awake, partially in preparation of leaving to go to a job 4:30 in the morning, and partially because if Nintendo Direct.

Hopes aren't too high because there's no announced Western ones

just woke up wats going on, when is this thing.

3 hours.

 

[TriGen]

Fake.

It will probably happen at some point in time... but not anytime soon. Especially that they stated they want to do an original Zelda 3DS title first.

My feelings as well.

 

[Pineconn]

GAF, please enlighten me: What is your final verdict on this Majora's Mask 3D rumor that's been going around? Is it safe to get hyped?

Yes, get hyped.

Spoiler

The higher the hype level, the more hilarity and meltdowns and bans to ensue!

 

[BowieZ]

they stated they want to do an original Zelda 3DS title first.

We've heard mixed messages about this in the past. But the sticking point for me is the SwapNote clue about "New Legend of Zelda" games (probably 3DS).

I dunno how they're gonna juggle all of this Zelda.

 

[Takao]

I want to believe.

 

[Mpl90]

No news about how long it will be yet?

 

[ED Cantu]

Damn I'm getting sleepy, I don't think I can stay awake for 3 more hours.
Well I hope to find great news when I wake up, good night GAF.

 

[GCX]

No news about how long it will be yet?

Probably the normal 30-40 minutes.

9:30pm in Australia, that's great! Have to stay up until 3am for E3 so it's good to just watch a Nintendo event in civilized hours.

Loving the 3DS so I'm really hoping for some cool new titles. Zelda would be incredible but I doubt it- I'm still happy with Paper Mario and Luigis Mansion on the horizon.

 

[BGBW]

Can't believe I almost missed this. Well I know what I'll be doing at lunch/having on in the background as I enter data.

Should start around 9PM, unless you're not East Coast.

Ah yes, you're right. Thanks!

 

[Moz La Punk]

Two more hours to go!

 

[mclem]

Do they normally appear on Youtube first, or start off on Nintendo's own system and take a little time for someone to put them on Youtube? Formulating a cunning plan involving making use of the wifi in the staff canteen.

IIRC, Nintendo opened recently a Nintendo Direct section on their YouTube Channels.

 

[XDDX]

Ustream page is live and it says that the presentation is 47 minutes long.

20:00 - 20:47: presentation
20:47 - 21:18: i guess videos and trailers. Damn, the section dedicated to the trailers is LONG!

 

[AniHawk]

nintendo should totally announce new super mario bros. wii 2, just to fuck with everyone.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

Wii Sports Resort 2 for good measure.

Well, the KHDD trailer was 9 minutes long, for example. Doesn't mean there's gonna be a lot of stuff, necessarily.

Subtitles? Nice.

 

[Box of Bunnies]

17 minutes Iwata staring at bananas, 30 minutes Game Centre CX.

I know, but at least there's a possibility!

Spoiler

Probably, all dedicated to Animal Crossing

@Ragus: Subtitles? Nice! Isn't the first time they do a subtitled streaming, no?

If I remeber correctly, we once already had a Japaneses Direct with subtitles.

 

[king zell]

they always say Subtitles and we get nothing. not gonna fool me again ustream.

 

[BocoDragon]

I'm sure this will be worth the wait (lol).

 

[Dusk Golem]

I'm sure this will be worth the wait (lol).

Iwata: (laughs)
Miyamoto: (laughs)

 

[specialguy]

no wii u news, no care

for me.

 

[StreetsAhead]

I'd put money on Animal Crossing Co-Op/Online play demo, NSMB2 play tips, maybe Project X Zone or Bravely Default trailers. Oh and

Spoiler

Shin Megami Tensei 4 gameplay footage

 

[EatChildren]

I have it on pretty good authority that on tonight's Nintendo Direct president and CEO of Nintendo Saturo Iwata will announce Miyamoto headed Halo-killer franchise called 'Killzone' exclusively for Nintendo 3DS.

when did they change the name?

I liked "Who shoot Peach?"

 

[Velcro Fly]

Do I stay up or do I go to bed.

It's a little more than an hour away.

I'll need to think about this one carefully.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

think about it for an hour slikysmooth and get back to us

 

[Jethro]

Should I drink a beer while watching this?

 

[StreetsAhead]

Should I drink a beer while watching this?

Let's play the new mustache drinking game - mustache on your screen and when Iwata's face lines up, take a drink!

Go to sleep, wake up to awesome news win/win.

 

[@MUWANdo]

This is the first Nintendo Direct to not include a followup from either NOE or NOA, isn't it?

 

[urfe]

So much English in the chat. A lot of people in America staying up late/getting up early for something only in Japanese.

 

[BGBW]

So bets on which room Iwata will be in this time.

My guess will be the ninja training grounds.

 

[Jethro]

Iwata sits on a royal toilet and presenting The great mighty Poo Adventure.

 

[Currygan]

so I slept two hours thanks to horrendous contruction noise, but was happy because I thought it would have started this minute

seems I was wrong and I have to go to work one hour from now, when it begins


feels not so good, man

 

[Metroid Hunter]

choo choo
