My prediction for tonight will be the "challenger approaching" screen, but of someone we already know, like Luigi. We're due for big info. New stages, more disconfirmed character trophies, more stage bosses. 1/4 of the most important pics are this week. Hnmnnng.

Still waiting on my Japanese 3ds to arrive any day now.

This is the volume menu. Here you can change the overall volume, the music volume, and the sound effects volume. We're working hard to make sure that all of the volume sliders are better than ever!

Yeah, I'd actually be okay with this.

 

[Lunar15]

Having individual volume controls is great for people that record footage like me.

It helps you find a good balance for things, especially games that don't do their mixing well.

That sounds a little hardcore. You might only get this option in For Glory.

 

[Regiruler]

Get with the times, Regi! Did you miss the K. Rool reveal too?

How can I miss that which does not exist?

 

[SuperAngelo64]

This is the best victory song for Diddy Kong

Nope.

 

[Crocodile]

Right now I'm more surprised you managed to fit Ridley's face in your avatar right now lol.

What always gets me about that gif is the mustached ape who rolls out of the screen. The way he does it is so hilarious

 

[Caladrius]

My hype levels are very slowly ascending.

Spoiler

The likely Ridley de-confirmation will likely send it plummeting back down to 0, but eh.

Nope.

I like how you think.

what would a hypothetical crocomire reveal do for you

We just got Meta Knight. I don't think we're due for big info until September.

 

[IntelliHeath]

He would become Ridley.

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

We're less than a month away from launch. They're gonna have to ramp up at least stage reveals in the meantime.

 

[Xpike]

I agree, no new info until the Wii U launch, 3DS version is literally a slideshow of PotDs until it gets patched with the game later. sakuraiiiii

 

[Neiteio]

Tonight's the night

Maybe. I dunno. Still low hype. :-\

 

[IntelliHeath]

We just got Meta Knight. I don't think we're due for big info until September.

I think we are going to get more character reveal this month.

 

[georly]

We just got Meta Knight. I don't think we're due for big info until September.

No veteran reveals, but tons of stuff we don't know about!

 

[IntelliHeath]

Stop pouting around and start to filling out yourself with insane artificial hype, just hell out of it.

Wait for the direct.

 

[The Great Gonzales]

I just want to say a quick thank-you to everyone here who recommended Kirby Triple Deluxe to me. I picked it up the other day and I'm having a blast. Beetle Kirby is soooo good.

 

[zroid]

Hoping for meltdowns tonight

a disconfirmation would be nice

 

[Neoxon]

Wait for the direct.

Next month

Until then, CASUALTY MONDAY!!!!!!

 

[BakedYams]

I'm surprised Sakurai hasn't revealed anything big with Smash coming out on the 3DS so soon.... I feel confused with this tactic of his.

 

[Caladrius]

I'm kind of hoping they announce an announcement alongside the regular PotD.

what would a hypothetical crocomire reveal do for you

That would actually be pretty awesome. I love Crocomire.

He would become Ridley.

2late.

 

[IntelliHeath]

Next month

Until then, CASUALTY MONDAY!!!!!!

That's why you are not praying to Heavenly Booty right now, are you?

 

[Berordn]

I'm surprised Sakurai hasn't revealed anything big with Smash coming out on the 3DS so soon.... I feel confused with this tactic of his.

He's going to drop a newcomer trailer the night the game's releasing.

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

It's August, dude.

Two months since E3.

Bimonthly Direct.

GIMME A NEW TRAILER ALREADY

Eh, screw it, I'm going to bed.

 

[BakedYams]

He's going to drop a newcomer trailer the night the game's releasing.

I swear if its Chorus Men and not Ridely, I will cry.

 

[PreyingShark]

Haha! That'd be funny, but I don't think I want to give him/her/it away, as I think a lot of people are probably expecting them to place at least in the top 20.

So Young Link obviously.

 

[BakedYams]

It's August, dude.

Bimonthly Direct.

GIMME A NEW TRAILER ALREADY

Eh, screw it, I'm going to bed.

Didn't they do one for Hyrule Warriors this month? I'm honestly scared at the lack of news from Nintendo. Especially with the rumor of them having a remake every month in 2015, or has GAF already debunked that?

 

[IntelliHeath]

I swear if its Chorus Men and not Ridely, I will cry.

Then you gotta to get your handkerchief ready!


It's more likely to be Shulk and Chorus Kids but I'm not entirely sure that we would get more newcomers other than those two newcomers.

 

[ArcaneFreeze]

Its not a remake every month, its a game a month including a remake. That means Splatoon, Xenoblade, Zelda U, etc. are all on the list of "game a month"

 

[JediLink]

So Young Link obviously.

It can't be that because Young Link/Link/Toon Link are all merged, and he's going to easily come first.

 

[J@hranimo]

Tonight's the night

Maybe. I dunno. Still low hype. :-\

Whaat? An un-hype Neiteio?

What is happening????

 

[Sponge]

Whaat? An un-hype Neiteio?

Not sure. I've been feelin' it lately myself.

 

[mrhej]

Yeah! Who is ready for another character sleeping pic?!

 

[Berordn]

Yeah! Who is ready for another character sleeping pic?!

big money
no whammy

c'mon captain falcon

 

[balladofwindfishes]

Yeah! Who is ready for another character sleeping pic?!

Jigglypuff confirmed?

 

[JazzmanZ]

Tonights pic of the day "Mewtwo returns!...as a pokeball item!, once released it mega evolves into one of two forms and unleashes attacks! watch out!"

 

[Spinluck]

Sakurai emailed me and told me Ridley is playable.

 

[Neoxon]

That's why you are not praying to Heavenly Booty right now, are you?

It's too early for that.

 

[C.Olimar788]

Tonight will be another third party trophy. Possibly of Bayonetta. Callin' it now.

 

[random25]

It's August, dude.

Bimonthly Direct.

GIMME A NEW TRAILER ALREADY

Eh, screw it, I'm going to bed.

We'll probably see a new direct (probably Smash-centric) by the end of the month or 1st week of September since the JP release is about 4 weeks away from now. But I'm also hoping for a general bi-monthly direct this August to showcase other upcoming games (a release date for XCX please ).

 

[Neoxon]

Tonight will be another third party trophy. Possibly of Bayonetta. Callin' it now.

But.....Casualty Monday.

 

[Finale Fireworker]

Whaat? An un-hype Neiteio?

What is happening????

Not sure. I've been feelin' it lately myself.

I think it's common for people who are super-hyped to lose steam as the release gets closer. Hype is a difficult thing to maintain consistently, and with Smash so much of it comes from the unknown. But once you accept that in less than a month the biggest secrets will be out, the hype slows down.

Because now you're not waiting for the next Nintendo Direct announcement or surprise Dojo update. You're waiting a finite amount of time for the biggest reveal. Nothing between now and then, like some pictures of Meta Knight, is going to have the same effect as it would have when we didn't have release dates or when the Gemetsu Leak got blown apart.

Once you remove the unknown element, it's easier to just sit and wait.

 

[BakedYams]

Its not a remake every month, its a game a month including a remake. That means Splatoon, Xenoblade, Zelda U, etc. are all on the list of "game a month"

Makes more sense. It will be a godlike year for Nintendo.

 

[Mr. Smiley]

Tonights pic of the day "Mewtwo returns!...as a pokeball item!, once released it mega evolves into one of two forms and unleashes attacks! watch out!"

Mewtwo reduced to a random item with a half-n-half random effect. Better than a trophy I suppose.

 

[EhoaVash]

filler pic tonight baby...yay i'm definitely waking up 3AM for it ._.

 

[The Great Gonzales]

Stage tonight - either a brand new one, or new information about an already-revealed one.

 

[Regiruler]

Sakurai emailed me and told me Ridley is playable.

My email reconfirmed wonder red.

 

[Xpike]

I just realized we haven't seen anything about Falcon or Meta Knight at all.

 

[theprodigy]

filler pic tonight baby...yay i'm definitely waking up 3AM for it ._.

I feel like making a Harry Potter joke right now....
