This is my opinion on the matter:



The rest I can't bring myself to expect for tomorrow's reveals.

Yeah I will also bold Monolith, I don't expect it to be Earthbound though. If Nintendo did announce all of those than I would be blown away.

9 hours 9 minutes?

 

[Wolves Evolve]

A real list:

- VC for the Wii U - repurchase your games, one by one, released one every six weeks.
- Wii Fit U release date (June)
- Pikmin 3 release date (August)
- Miiverse on the 3DS (November)
- Goodnight everybody!

Hopefully Nintendo pushed the Panic Button
Panic Nintendo is the best Nintendo

 

[Ezalc]

people are really expecting a yoshi game?

haha

Did you miss the fact that it was basically leaked that it exists a while back?

 

[EatChildren]

Sorry man, no Platinum love this time.

Nintendo's not developing Bayonetta 2 / The Wonderful 101.

Man, you're taking that statement way too specifically. Both Bayonetta 2 and The Wonderful 101 are funded by Nintendo, published by Nintendo, and I guarantee are being meddled with by Nintendo. As far Nintendo need to be concerned, they're Nintendo games, and can be comfortably discussed alongside your next Mario, Zelda, and everything else being built internally.

EDIT: Oh, and for everybody else, the only thing on that list I expect is GCN virtual console support. That's it.

 

[Blood Diamonds]

I hope you're joking. Lol

Of course I am.

A little.

 

[Soriku]

Holy shit are these plausible?

TEMPORARY GTAV EXCLUSIVITY?

I DON'T EVEN.

HOW?

Nintendo magic. Believe.

 

[Kyzer]

Wii Fit U
Pikmin 3
Mario Kart U
Bayonetta 2
W101
Beefed up VC support
Some kind of reminder that SSB is in development, to somewhat sstave off potential damage from Durango/Orbis

 

[Instro]

Real talk, Nintendo brought all the Cing guys in and they are making Hotel Dusk WiiU.

 

[Box]

Wasn't Retro supposed to be working on a FPS going by past job listings too? or was that mere speculation?

I hope so, that would be really wonderful.

I know shooters get a lot of flak for being associated with realistic graphics and blood and intrusive cinematics, but at the core of it, there's a really solid gameplay mechanic that's one of the best ways to play games in 3D.

It's a really simple thing. You just aim and dodge. That kind of simplicity is often associated with Nintendo. It's disappointing that they ignore this genre, because they would be the ones to take away the intrusive story, the excessive violence, and the need to have top of the line graphics.

 

[jerd]

I think if we hear of anything resembling a megaton, it will likely be in the form of "Oh yeah, we're making this game. Expect it sometime in the future."

Which is plenty for me. I'm Nintenstarved.

 

[Mailenstein]

Back on my way home from Miyazaki to Fukuoka. Tired as fuck, but this is a pleasant surprise, Nintendo!

 

[onipex]

okay so going by what has been discussed over the last few pages the following is looking likely

- Retro's game shown, either Metroid or Zelda.
- Yoshi's Island: Wii U.
- Monolith's project, which is a next gen remake of Mother.
- Resident Evil 2 remake.
- GCN virtual console running at HD resolution, plus GamePad support.
- Temporary GTAV exclusivity.

Might as well throw in a first party FPS co-developed by Bungie while you're at it.

 

[Tehalemi]

Shit...im sorry nooo dont page EC!

Let's get our minds off the hype for a sec.

Spoiler

Yah right, lol

What are you all doing to kill time before all hell breaks loose? Besides abusing the F5 button.

 

[VertPin]

haha

There's been enough proof, so why not? People actually like the Yoshi games too bro.

with Toy Story 3-like graphics.

 

[Mlatador]

I'd be happy if it's Yoshi's Island U developed by Retro. I mean, they deserve HUGE CREDIT for bringing Donkey Kong Country back in a way that not only was truthfull to it's originals, but IMHO even surpassed them.

Since I'm sure Nintendo EAD is bussy with other things, Retro may have been given the task (since they are the only ones besides the EADs who can do it).

Yoshi's Island U really needs to be a AAA efford, though (like DKCR), in order to get my approval! It may even need to be a AAA+ efford, since Super Mario Land 2: Yoshi's Island is still THE BEST 2D Jump'n Run/Platformer ever created.

 

[elostyle]

If I am going to get up at 6am to see WiiFit U, I am going to be furious.

I'm at work playing Puzzle and Dragons on my phone. I'm so productive.

I'd love to see another game like Geist.

No, don't do this.

 

[Morts]

It could be real, but I think people are putting a little too much faith into a debug screen that a QA tester plugged some uncapitalized test data into.

Waiting for the inevitable Zero Suit Samus alternate outfit in Bayonetta 2. If it's good enough for Fatal Frame...

 

[?oe?oe]

I've been saying it for two years and I'll say it again: Star Tropics.

Get enough people saying it's real and it'll come true. Same happened with Kid Icarus.

Self fulfilling prophecy. It's simple maths.

 

[Erv]

What was the leak exactly?

 

[Hugstable]

I better see 3D HD Yoshi when I wake up

u will...
and moar

 

[beast786]

Haha awesome. But the last has to be a smiling face

Come on give my WiiU some love nintendo

 

[hatchx]

My prediction:


-More Pikmin 3 and Wii Fit U
-Some third party ports (god knows, maybe an RE6 special edition or Tomb Raider port)
-Game and Wario release date + trailer
-Virtual Console of some kind
-something special


....it'll be akin to the announcements of the September conference. We got announcements of Monster Hunter, Bayonetta 2, Black Ops 2, Skylanders, etc.

 

[Codeblue]

Believe, GAF.
BELIEVE

There are few things I want more. I choose to believe.

Edit: Fixed the button layout.

 

[TheCongressman1]

Haha awesome. But the last has to be a smiling face

I was thinking the same thing. He's missing that beautiful smile.

 

[(mat)]

I'm not sure if this was brought up anywhere else, but Click, the electronics magazine that Future Shop puts out, had this in it:

 

[Batman]

Yeah that would be even better.

 

[Skiesofwonder]

Real talk, Nintendo brought all the Cing guys in and they are making Hotel Dusk WiiU.

You and the Skies of Arcadia 2 poster are going on my ignore list tomorrow at 9:31 AM EST.

Some things just shouldn't be joked about.

 

[Ezalc]

What was the leak exactly?

IIRC, it was listed on Nintendo's site briefly before it was taken down. Only the name was there, something like Yoshi's Island Wii U.

 

[canadian crowe]

Yoshi's Land had better be a 3D platformer.

 

[Fandangox]

Oh this is still going.

 

[Greenzxy]

Aight, I think I'm headed to bed.
Waking up to Megatons! Don't disappoint Nintendo.

 

[Medalion]

I'm not sure if this was brought up anywhere else, but Click, the electronics magazine that Future Shop puts out, had this in it:

its true... wiiu at future shop ain't selling like hotcakes...

Nope
it was found on Miiverse
HERE, FULL STORY

 

[Jacobbles]

I have a horrible gut feeling that there won't be anything that exciting coming out of this ND

Having two bombshell Nintendo Directs in a row? That doesn't seem like Nintendo's style.

 

[ffdgh]

Yoshi's Land had better be a 3D platformer.

Glaxay1/2 physics with yoshi in 3d worlds :O

 

[Mariolee]

Getting hyped is half of the fun.

 

[toddhunter]

Ideal situation is finally having Yoshi's and revealed...as a new collection of dance mini-games.

 

[Aquamarine]

I'm not sure if this was brought up anywhere else, but Click, the electronics magazine that Future Shop puts out, had this in it:

Just add it to the list of evidence...
