Oh yes, I'm really feeling this.

After playing Xenoblade Chronicles, I am too!

 

[balohna]

I'm not going to hold my breath, but I would love to see more Splatoon. As in, not the same E3 demo again but a newer build and a different stage.

 

[KingSnake]

BEcause on e3 it was like 2 hours per game MAXIMUM.

We now have more than 7 only for smash

And that's why the title of the thread sucks.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

And that's why the title of the thread sucks.

Yeah, I saw it and was excited and then unexcited because it makes it sound like it is a single game showing.

Then I got excited again as it seems a general showing with Smash footage afterwards.

I feel like we're seeing the evolution of the Nintendo direct.

I feel like we're seeing the evolution of the Nintendo direct.

Or Iwata is not feeling good enough to host things anymore.

Then again, even when he seemed well, they seemed to be transitioning from the standard Direct in Directs themselves.

I want to see the dude one day again though, hope he's doing alright.

 

[ZeroMaverick]

Now Friday is going to take forever to get here

 

[DaBoss]

So I'm not sure whether anyone noticed or not, but I made the last to Nintendo Live threads, but I won't be able to keep it updated, so if anyone else can make one, that would be better. Just stating this assuming people would wait for me or something.

Here is the logo for this event:

Well he did the NEW 3DS Direct, so he's recovering.

He took quite a bit of old age, though.

They could still have Reggie do it.

I think they like the streaming to show off games and the positive response it got at E3. Showing someone actual play the game instead of a canned 2 minute long trailer is so much better.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

Shit, I was wondering about that as I think I heard it.

Good to hear.

I haven't seen it and him since he revealed his health issues.

 

[Cbajd5]

Now that i think about it since this will most likely take place during/for a while after the Japanese Smash 3DS launch will they possibly play online against normal Japanese players?

I can definitely see why they probably wouldn't, but I think it'd be fun(ny).

 

[NickWright]

Do I have to feel bad if I prefer other game's news than Smash? I mean, at least I'll see Erik playing it, but we'll mostly get all the information we need in some early release in Japan.

Spoiler

why did Pokémon X have to be sold early in Canada and not this

 

[Cbajd5]

Spoiler

because it'd still be at least a week after the japanese launch

No, there's going to be a billion streams for Smash very soon.

 

[jmizzal]

8 hour stream with some talk about upcoming 3DS and Wii U games as well. Then a lot of smashing, mind game madness and Treehouse goodness. Official Treehouse theme.

Wow didnt know about talk about other upcoming games, well will be watching now

 

[Akiller]

Oh yeah! I really loved E3 Treehouse!

Spoiler

It will probably end with a Wii Sports gameplay

 

[TreIII]

I feel like we're seeing the evolution of the Nintendo direct.

I would argue we've been seeing it for a while, now. For example, Nintendo had to see the kind of positive response they got from their "Digital Event" at E3 this year, vs. the "E3 Direct" they had at last year's.

And in Japan, it seems to be similar. Nintendo has been getting much more mileage out of having events that can be streamed through Nico.

It really just seems like that we're seeing a logical progression of how Nintendo does these Digital events. Enough "spectacle" to enthrall those who want some type of stage show, but still with enough good information for those of us who just want to see these games in motion and learn about them.

 

[Akiller]

Hype level: Giant blow

 

[Smiles and Cries]

man hope they have a youtube mirror as well

8 hours I am so in if I am not addicted to Destiny tomorrow

 

[Hero of Legend]

PLEASE let this be the "Fall Conference" of sorts where we get legit new retail Wii U game announcements and such.

 

[Liha]

8 hours Treehouse? My body and eyes are ready.

 

[Dr. Buni]

PLEASE let this be the "Fall Conference" of sorts where we get legit new retail Wii U game announcements and such.

The entire E3 was about the Wii U, if anything the Treehouse should be about new 3DS titles.

3DS already had attention last month, Wii U needs all the help and attention it can get.

Lol, no way. Unfortunately.

Or Nintendo focus on what's important : gameplay, REAL gameplay and not some bullshit PR talk.

That's what I liked with E3 Tree house live, they were natural and you could really tell, they no lifed the game before presenting it. They aren't trying to brainwash you with "look all the revolutinary features we haveeeeee". No, they just enjoy themselves.

 

[jmizzal]

Prob wont happen since its NA focused

I think we get Smash Bros WiiU, Amiibo and Toad release dates
And new Smash characters

At best they will talk about some 2015 games but thats even a stretch

 

[Richie]

I wonder if Europe is going to have an equivalent to this so it can be a worldwide event.

Also, guys...How realistic are the chances that they announce N64 VC support for the Wii U in this, and a close date?

 

[Kyzon]

YES! I can't wait to hear Krysta destroy the other employee's souls with her taunts.

 

[Wendler]

The suppossed "Fall Conference" is and never was a real thing.

And if we would get even one new game announcement, the last sentence would have mentioned it somehow, just like the Treehouse Comic Con panel mentioned "surprises", even though they were nothing special.

The Treehouse is just doing what people demanded they should do; create more events similar to the E3 Treehouse event.

Aye! Treehouses are Nintendo Directs on crack.

 

[StreetsAhead]

No one sounds more PRey than Audrey.

It's probably habit after working for IGN for so long.

 

[Sammy Samusu]

They need to bring new games and content. Who is interested in watching an E3 reprise for the third time? Not many people.

I'm over Hyrule Warriors, Fantasy Life, Bayonetta, Smash Bros, etc. Either show new stuff or don't bother.

Yep. Exposure is good for marketing, but yeah we've seen enough of that stuff, bring on NEW games, it's been 3 months since E3 and Sony had NO trouble showing new games on both PS4 and Vita the other day.

We had the JP Directs for 1st and 3rd-party 3DS games, it's time for more on Wii U, the console that's been abandoned by 3rd-parties so Nintendo has to keep up the pace.

Those rumored 3 exclusives are what we need to see. Hopefully a Mario sport game as well as we've not seen any yet, make it Strikers 3 at least so we know what NLG is up to!

 

[Kandinsky]

Well Sony actually had games to show, Nintendo already showed lots of 2015 stuff.

 

[janoDX]

Treehouse 2: Smashing Boogaloo.

 

[munchie64]

Based Treehouse delivering on the Smash (and other game) goods.

 

[ratcliffja]

Yeah Nintendo really doesn't have that much to show unfortunately. They have almost no third party support and there are only so many first party studios.

They should just announce Youkai Watch for the west already.

Spoiler

ust kidding

But you are right. I want to see other games being shown off besides Smash Bros and the others you already named.

 

[Mistle]

Nintendo are spoiling us. This is awesome, I really like what Nintendo have been doing since E3.

 

[TreIII]

As much as I would love to play a third Strikers? After seeing the likes of their apparent Metroid concept, it'd be almost disappointing to see them go back to Strikers immediately.

By all means, I'm hoping they got a chance to revisit that. And maybe, just maybe, we can get at least a glimpse of what Retro is up to now, post-DKC:TF.

 

[DeliciousDoc]

If they show fire emblem x shin megami tensei and it looks good, I'm off to buy a wii u this weekend. Or they can announce a new fire emblem or a compilation of all the fire emblems out of nowhere and I will also be pleased.

 

[Kinsei]

If a new Mario sports game is announced, I hope it's a new Baseball. Superstar Baseball is amazing, and Super Sluggers wasn't bad.

 

[Chaos17]

That's what we though and what did Iwata do ?
Drop bombs and few day before we had another bombs about MK8 DLC.
Just saying to not understimate them.

Though, they usually use Nintendo Direct to annouce bombs so I am not really sure if the Tree house will feed us some new infos. Maybe they're things will still don't know about some games ? Only Nintendo knows~

Then don't watch it.
Not everybody know about them or will buy them soon.
So it's still good to inform people other websites like IGN wouldn't live at all if people don't care about information.

How do you think hype is being created by Destiny ?
By reapeting the same stuffs all over and over again.

No one sounds more PRey than Audrey.

Did you listened to her at least or you hated her because she is blond ?
She never did repeated any revolutionary aweseome XXXX features about the games (not like Sims 4 or Dragon age Inquisition PR, promising you the moon)
All you can say is that she is saying too often the word "cute" and can be a bit spamy. What I saw is a girl who was really playing the games. She tried hard to save the author of Yoshi Wool world, many time, lol.
Also I was generally speaking about the staff, if you've a problem with her that's your problem not mine.

 

[suaveric]

I wonder if we'll finally get the release dates for Toad and Smash Wii U.

 

[Hero of Legend]

If a new Mario sports game is announced, I hope it's a new Baseball. Superstar Baseball is amazing, and Super Sluggers wasn't bad.

I'm up for any of the current series aside from Hoops/Sports Mix, of course I've not tried either , but Golf, Tennis, Baseball, and Strikers are pure gold!
