Nintendo Direct's Hype Thread: September 2013 Edition

Status
Not open for further replies.
For the past two years, MH was the star of the show, MH4 in 2011 and MH3U in 2012.

I don't see a new MH game being announced in 2013, a localization announcement for MH4 would make many people shit their pants though.

I'm hoping for some Square Enix games for the 3DS and Revelachons 2.

Other then BDFF and maybe DQ7 don't expect much on SE's end.
 
The Capcom news specifically said that more would be said about the collaboration within MH4 "directly" before the games' release (including putting it in quotation marks). It's pretty clear what they meant.

It could, however, mean MH4 is getting its own Direct, or that there will be a more general Japan-only one, or a simultaneous world-wide one.
 
I imagine we'll at least get a ND with new Wii U game announcements by the end of the year after the big games for it this holiday have come out.
 
I love me some hype. Hype never hurt no one.

As long as there is hope there is hype.

That link basically said there's a Direct in September.

Or... "We will give you more information DIRECTLY". Maybe it's a bit vague.

So... It's safe to go absolutely bonkers?
 
I can see it now, it'll be 27 minutes long for the NOA one

12 minutes will be spent on
the upcoming Wii U system update

5 minutes will be talking about
the Windwaker HD

8 minutes will be spent on
Wii Party U

2 minutes on
Just Dance 4 and Skylanders

Please understand
 
Pikmin 3 DLC announced. Special mission with Olimar and Louie. $1 per pikmin.

Super Mario 3D World is announced as a pre-release bonus for the real Mario platformer coming out in December.

Retro's secret project revealed. StarTropics? Nope. Tropic Thunder. An FPS based on the Ben Stiller movie. Aiming to be the new Goldeneye.

Iwata resigns; hands over control of company to Aunoma, who announces Zelda will go to iOS immediately just so he doesn't have to develop it anymore.

Stock goes up on Zelda announcement.

X gets a subtitle: MetaMechs. You control a clichéd, mopey RPG hero who pilots a mech, and that mech also pilots a mech. Reggie calls it "a Titanfall killer."

Nintendo starts charging $50 for online play. Gamers praise Nintendo for catching up with the rest of the industry.

Gold, Jerry! Would have also accepted after Aunoma takes charge that all Nintendo PR releases going forward will be puzzles.
 
I still think the best time to do a next blowout Nintendo Direct would probably be in October after Pokemon X/Y launch. My expectations are fully contained for the time being.
 
You'll get DK, 3d world dates and trailers for the games they've shown. Maybe a surprise 3DS 3rd party announcement like bravely default 2

the last time people had this type of espectation, bayonetta 2 was announced, at this same exact event.
 
They're going to announce the new Deluxe Wind Waker console bundle coming out in October for $349.99.

The same bundle I think should be $299.99 or less :(
 
That was an actual event not a nintendo direct. The best Direct nintendo has done besides the mh4 thing which was not really labeled a direct was this january.

It was a Direct everywhere apart from the States. The Mon Hun 4 announcement came before the Direct programme was started.

i've heard people saying nintendo fans were jealous because we didn't have that paywall up, so i wouldn't be surprised one bit if they got away with it.
