[Jamix012]

Japan only? Edit: Oh you updated the OP.

 

[Hours Left]

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...

 

[Min0]

Cool. Hope to see some new announcements.

 

[ArtHands]

Oh yes!!

Final Fantasy Explorer 3DS trailer I hope

 

[clay_ghost]

Dang Japan only...,

 

[Kouriozan]

Please be worldwide!
We still need Dragon Quest 7 Remake!

 

[Heyt]

Fantastic, after being completely ignored at E3, 3DS needs new announcements fast. I hope they announce it as global direct soon... or at least they announce localizations of he new games in a timely fashion.

Excited about the chance of being able to see Final Fantasy Explorers in action!

 

[vareon]

Niiiiiiiiice. Final Fantasy Explorers? The next Etrian Odyssey?

 

[zeromcd73]

More information on Bravely Second and Final Fantasy Explorers please and of course DQXI!

Also since Youkai Watch 2 was released today Level 5 should be announcing Youkai Watch 3 any moment now!

 

[cw_sasuke]

Bravely Second and Final Fantasy Explorers footage plz.

I guess Iwata wont be present ?

 

[Shaanyboi]

Final Fantasy Explorer

maybe Bravely Default 2

Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate?

Persona Q

.... what else?

 

[kuroneko0509]

Bring me Bravely Second trailer!

 

[Hellraider]

I guess DQXI is too big to get announced in something like that, right?

 

[Rubixcuba]

Excited for Bravely Default 2 info, but bit disappointed in Japan only so far.

 

[efyu_lemonardo]

what games could they show?

 

[gngf123]

Final Fantasy Explorer

maybe Bravely Default 2

Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate?

Persona Q

.... what else?

It's Japan, they won't mention Persona Q. That game is already out.

If we have an EU/US one, it will probably get mentioned.

Niiiiiiiiice. Final Fantasy Explorers? The next Etrian Odyssey?

They were teasing a remake of EO2 a while back, so that's possible.

 

[Jucksalbe]

Niiiiiiiiice. Final Fantasy Explorers? The next Etrian Odyssey?

Etrian Odyssey seems likely. Would be nice.

 

[Floex]

Japan Only ;_;

 

[clay_ghost]

Final Fantasy Explorer

maybe Bravely Default 2

Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate?

Persona Q

.... what else?

FF 16, DQ 11 , tales of F zero and Zelda soul.

 

[vareon]

Holy shit I forgot Bravely Second. Someone ask the Bravely Default twitter.

Edit: And Daigyakuten Saiban!

 

[JoeM86]

Didn't read 3DS at first, and was surprised, then I read 3DS and thought "Oh yeah, that is obvious "

Looking forward to it

 

[tonyh24613]

Wut!?

 

[Earthpainting]

I wonder if they'll focus on new announcements or on upcoming software. 3DS sales are faltering a bit in Japan, so they kind of need to work on both.

More information on Bravely Second and Final Fantasy Explorers please and of course DQXI!

Also since Youkai Watch 2 was released today Level 5 should be announcing Youkai Watch 3 any moment now!

I was going to make the same cynical joke. Youkai Watch 3 announced and split into two versions.

 

[Mpl90]

Cool!

But I hooe the next general ww Direct won't make us wait too much.

Still, I think we'll get a Zelda Musou Direct first, and that should be WW.

 

[kuroneko0509]

Hype train time

Ummm.... Treehouse itself atleast announced 4 new games though.

Steam?
Fantasy Life
Persona Q
And Curtain Call.

And maybe other title too here.

 

[Opinionatedfish]

I hope there is also a 2DS launch in Japan. SNES games on Virtual Console, a new 3DS model, and a new Castlevania.

 

[axisofweevils]

Interesting. We haven't had a non-specific Direct for some time.

 

[jts]

Can I haz hype now?

Wait, 3rd party... nvm then.

 

[Mpl90]

Just noticed. Look at Nintendo's official page.

It's red and black. So much black. I think the only other time there has been a black background has been with the E3 2013 Direct, right?

 

[tonyh24613]

So... Monster Hunter 4G? BDFF2? Sonic Boom? EO2 Remake?

Spoiler

TWEWY2?

 

[Hellraider]

Persona 5 betrayalton confirmed!

Black because the future is dark, and red because they're in the red?

I GET IT NOW... THE 3RD PARTY IS NINTENDO.

 

[Mpl90]

Heck, DQX could get a first look as well.

...How much stuff do they have? It's a lot :lol

Probably, this is when we'll know MH4U's release date.

 

[Tenki]

Bravely Second, Final Fantasy Explorers, Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, Etrian Odyssey 2 remake, the new Ace Attorney...

I don't know what more to expect.

Black because the future is dark, and red because they're in the red?

I GET IT NOW... THE 3RD PARTY IS NINTENDO.

LOL

 

[Heyt]

Curtain call was announced before E3. Localizations are allways welcome but actually new game announcements... that was just Steam.

Regardless, 3DS presence wasn't that big at E3 and 2015 seems pretty empty so announcements are really needed, specially knowing that this console is the main source of revenue for the company.

 

[Labadal]

I hope there are some jrpgs shown.

 

[pronk420]

is it specifically described as Japan only, or has only been announced for Japan so far?

I wonder if this will have something to do with the 8.0 update :O

 

[Gambit]

Bravely Second, Final Fantasy Explorers, DQX and DQ XI (...) and Revelaitons 2, pls.

Also, handheld versions of mobile titles like Sakaguchi's latest.

 

[efyu_lemonardo]

rumors on the net are that update is hiding something big..

 

[BY2K]

3rd Party Japan-only, huh?

LOOK AT ALL THESE GAMES WE WON'T GET!

 

[zeromcd73]

rumors on the net are that update is hiding something big..

Nintendo secretly removing region locking and adding GBA on 3DS virtual console.... Please!

 

[Jofamo]

Japanese 3DS users just yesterday received a Mii Plaza Streetpass Puzzle update, which was a Megaman puzzle panel (very unusual, first third party panel?).

New Megaman 3DS came co developed/funded by Nintendo incoming? Would help with Smash Broa visibility too.

[TrueBlue]

New info on the The Great Ace Attorney would be swell.

 

[efyu_lemonardo]

More 3rd party VC, possibly with some enhancements, seems more likely.
I wouldn't count on either GBA or region unlocking.
