Alright, I've compiled a list of some things we basically know are coming but haven't been announced and thus are probably likely to be announced here, let me know if I missed something.

1. Boss Battle Mode
2. Tourney Mode
3. Yellow Team
4. Event Match
5. Coin Battle
6. Special Smash
7. 8 Player Smash
8. Special Orders/Master Orders/Crazy Orders
9. Ticket Selection?
10. Smash World
11. Official Tourney?
12. Stage Builder
13. Temple Stage
14. Great Cave Offensive Stage
15. Metal Face (in some way)
16. Ridley (in some way)
17. More with Amiibos?
18. 3DS/Wii U Connectivity

Not even close to 50, although these may be most of the big things...

Was boss battle mode revealed in those audio files?

 

[BGBW]

Oh cool. We'll finally see what Ridley can do as a boss.

He just flies around in the background mumbling about not being a playable character. Typical Ridley, can't even be a proper stage hazard either.

 

[KingSnake]

What if Bayonetta comes with a code for a demo or if you register it on CN you get a demo?

That would be so cool, despite the guaranteed outrage.

 

[kuroneko0509]

So this is at 9am Saturday here.

I start work at 9am.

And do a double shift.

That day is going to be torture.

How come you're 1 day ahead? :lol

 

[10k]

My source tells me that:

8 player smash mode
First DLC character will be revealed
Bayonetta and Wonder Red will be future DLC characters
Ice climbers are the first DLC character
Anybody who preordered Bayonetta 2 or buys it gets a demo code on the eShop for Smash Wii U
Wonder Red will be able to transform to different wonderful ones (Red, Blue, Green, Yellow and Pink)

 

[Benzychenz]

How come you're 1 day ahead? :lol

Because time zones.

 

[kuroneko0509]

Because time zones.

Which timezone? Everyone else either watching this on Thursday or Friday, but not you

 

[Rosur]

Bayonetta as Wii U only character/ other Wii U characters? Reckon it could be due to being on the Bayonetta 2's release day.

 

[tnaden]

Because time zones.

L~A's countdown is 1 day off. It should be friday at the latest.

 

[BodiesWithoutOrgans]

Finly a nintendo direct haven't had one since e3

 

[Benzychenz]

Which timezone? Everyone else either watching this on Thursday or Friday, but not you

Australia but...

L~A's countdown is 1 day off. It should be friday at the latest.

That explains it.

9am Friday means I can watch it live

 

[IntelliHeath]

50 must-see things?

Even Sakurai can't resist going all clickbait on us.

50 new things. I'm very curious about it.

 

[KingSnake]

L~A's countdown is 1 day off. It should be friday at the latest.

Right! It's 3 days and 10 hours until Bayo.

 

[phanphare]

yessssssss!!

 

[jorgejjvr]

Hmm same day as bayonetta 2 release, there must be something about that there...

Imagine if you put bayonetta on club Nintendo you get a smash wii u demo, great marketing strategy to sell copies

 

[Hero of Legend]

SIGH, knew they'd give us a Smash U direct before a proper one. :/

 

[NateDrake]

It really comes down to how they classify the "50 new things" for the Wii U version. We know game modes, maybe Amiibo, but if they count individual levels then those will eat a decent chunk of that figure. Online modes/options will also likely be detailed greater.

SIGH, knew they'd give us a Smash U direct before a proper one. :/

You won't see a proper Direct soon. The company is focusing on individual titles to better market the games. Maybe early 2015 we'll get a full Direct covering several releases.

 

[AcademicSaucer]

Turn on your notifications people!

Selected platinum members only

 

[IntelliHeath]

We have 49 characters so far, not counting the different Mii types. #50 will be the first DLC character reveal.

Believe.

Too bad, Sakurai already confirmed that he counted those 3 separate fighters so it's 51 for sure.

 

[Francokid1]

I hope there are some surprise trailers at the end. Hopefully SMTxFE.

 

[Diddy Kong]

Oh fuck yes!!! I have class though

 

[Kissenkopf]

Hmm same day as bayonetta 2 release, there must be something about that there...

Doubt that.

Maybe we get a demo on friday. That would be a nice surprise and would explain all the maintenance of the Nintendo Network this week.

 

[Zevenberge]

DHD to be cut from Wii U version confirmed.

 

[Akiller]

50 new things. I'm very curious about it.

Bayo will probably be the 51st.

Spoiler

BAYONETTA CLIMAXS IN

 

[IntelliHeath]

DHD to be cut from Wii U version confirmed.

Huh? I don't see how it can related to my comment.

 

[Shahadan]

Unless bayonetta is announced as a playable character (which won't happen) I can't see this doing anything else than harm to bayonetta's sales. Even then it would still steal the spotlight. It's hilarious.
And fucking sad.

 

[ferrasvansen]

Really looking forward to this, have decided to bring the Wii u back into my bedroom, this has cost me a white ps4 to make it up to my nephew, but it will be worth it. I played melee for three days solid with my girlfriend in Nov 2002 we had such a blast over the weekend, holds sad memories since she passed away the following Monday, but I'm going to smile so much playing this and remembering her smiles.

 

[TDLink]

Was boss battle moved revealed in those audio files?

Yes. The first 11 I listed there are all from the audio leak.

 

[Javier]

Inkling for Smash 4 DLC.

HYPE.

wut

 

[『Inaba Resident』]

Calling it:
Demo or more characters

Exclusive demo for who register it on CN.

Naw, I don't think they would intent to hurt the sales, and people are more likely to pick up Bayonetta 2 to kill their times until It's a time for Direct.

 

[L~A]

You added an extra 24h. It should be on the 23rd GMT.

Damn, you're right. Thanks for the heads up.

Correct countdown timer:

 

[NateDrake]

Is Bayonetta 2 even out before this Direct in all regions?

 

[ferrasvansen]

Damn, you're right. Thanks for the heads up.

Correct countdown timer:

Going to be a long wait, ah well I'm tempted to buy Smash on my 3ds to ease the wait, could be here tomorrow.

 

[phanphare]

Is Bayonetta 2 even out before this Direct in all regions?

nope, comes out the next day in North America

 

[Hours Left]

Is Bayonetta 2 even out before this Direct in all regions?

The direct is on Thursday for the US/UK, Bayonetta comes out on Friday.

I see no reason why one should affect the other in anyway.

 

[IntelliHeath]

nope, comes out the next day in North America

Oops. I got the date messed up. My bad.

 

[Grexeno]

Thread title is confusing. It only says 24th but it's the 23rd for NA.

 

[BGBW]

It's a typo. Technically it is also 23rd for the UK.

 

[Zevenberge]

Huh? I don't see how it can related to my comment.

"50 things to show"
"51 characters"
= 1 character cut. And your avatar does the rest

Spoiler

Also because it is my most hated character.

Since the NES.

 

[Hero Prinny]

I gaspee in rl. CMON LEZGO GUYS! HYPE TRAIN ALL THE WAY

 

[Kazerei]

50 new things in #SmashBros for #WiiU

They mean "new" as in it's not in the 3DS version, right? NOA please don't toy with my heart.

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

It's a Japanese game about a witch who shoots bullets from her shoes. I'm sorry, Nintendo could force people to buy it at gunpoint and it'd still be a commercial flop. Make peace with it.

 

[The Elite]

50 Must see things and stuff.

 

[JoeM86]

They mean "new" as in it's not in the 3DS version, right? NOA please don't toy with my heart.

Yep. Japanese page says it's stuff not in the 3DS version

 

[Litri]

HYPE???... HYPE!!!

 

[IntelliHeath]

I think you are right since it said that they will show 50 things that aren't in 3DS version.
