We are most certainly getting something in this Nintendo Direct.

 

[Typhl0si0n]

GUYS!!!!!! Sakurai just tweeted saying there is a direct tomorrow, the fact that he acknowledge it makes me think there has to be something smash related!!!

Oh okay, okay... Maybe Pikajew is on to something, then... Well damn. Hope to see either King DDD or someone new altogether.

 

[soviet prince]

where do I view this tomorrow at a later time?

 

[Typhl0si0n]

This might be a dicky question, but how many hours until this direct begins?

 

[AnOkayDM]

This might be a ****y question, but how many hours until this direct begins?

Just over six.

 

[Typhl0si0n]

Just over six.

Cool- I'll fire up the French toast sticks and watch the direct. Gonna be a good morning.

 

[BKupa666]

This is what Nintendo is about to deliver...

 

[Morbi]

Just over six.

I will wake up to whatever news it is then, that is good.

*prays to Jesus, Buddha, Vishnu, The Flying Spaghetti Monster, and Molag Bal that Toad is confirmed (not in a religious way though).

 

[Xigger]

If this thread isn't chalk-full of conversation leading up to the Direct tomorrow, I'll be disappointed.

 

[Banjodorf]

Please be a newcomer that isn't a Mii (because of that one Reddit rumor.) Please oh please oh please!!

 

[Morbi]

They wont reveal Miis, they will probably introduce a 3rd party character like the Xbox Live Avatar!

Hey, it is better than a Mii!

 

[Banjodorf]

Look. I don't care what they reveal, as long as its not Mii's. they can reveal a walking piece of **** on a stick tomorrow, and its Ok with me because it doesn't serve to disconfirm playable Little Mac.

Any month other than December is fine to reveal Mii.

For some reason all of the pre-Direct hype has been taking place in the Daily Photo thread. xD

I expect this thread to fill up once the US people start waking up.

 

[soviet prince]

can not wait hoping for a release date the most

 

[Vintage Creep]

I have pretty big hopes for today. Am I the only one who's hoping for a look at the new modes and features more than the characters? It's time to explain that customization stuff imho

 

[The Real Gamer]

I haven't been able to sleep at all these past couple of hours... I just have a gut feeling this is gonna be something big.

 

[Morbi]

That is also what I want to know, I suppose I was wrong about Spring. So... I want to see what they have in store for us.

 

[Inawordyes]

THE HYPE TRAIN HAS ARRIVED! ALL ABOARD FOR NEXT STOP: NINTENDO DIRECT! CHUGGA CHUGGA I LIKED ALL Y'ALL'S POSTS CHOO CHOO! [/unnecessaryoverreactionbecauseitisfun]

 

[KingofPhantoms]

I'll have to get to bed before the Direct, so I can get up early for Christmas shopping. Wish I could stay up though. I'll stay for a while longer.

Hopefully whatever happens is something very pleasing, perhaps something that'll make my jaw drop when I wake up.

 

[The Real Gamer]

Imagine if Sakurai dropped a double whammy on us and revealed both Ridley and Mewtwo duking it out in a new trailer?

Smashboards would crash for a month.

It doesn't need a reveal to crash for a month.

 

[Banjodorf]

My god. That'd certainly rekindle the hype. They DO need to start announcing the "badass" looking characters like Rids and Mewtwo, so that'd certainly be awesome.

Smashboard's overall reaction if this happens:

That is true, they are kind of the hype characters this time around. Sonic was last time; however, it was overly apparent that no one cares anymore.

 

[The Real Gamer]

Yeah the hype characters this time around are Ridley, Mewtwo, and K Rool.

A reveal of any of those 3 will cause the internet to explode.

 

[Radical Bones]

True, and true @Banjodorf. I think, if there is a new character revealed tonight, it has to be someone fierce, not a third cute character addition. Mega Man is awesome, and he's pretty bad*** if you've played his games, but he doesn't look particularly bad***. Sonic reveal with Brawl was nuts. Sonic reveal for SSB4 was, well, expected.

 

[Inawordyes]

It appears that the HYPE TRAIN is leaving station and I cannot pay the fare. THIS SHALL NOT BE THE END OF HYPE, OH NO, THE HYPE SHALL HYPE ON! But it shall do so with one less passenger. ALL ABOARD THE HYPE TRAIN, VACENT SEAT AVAILABLE!

Haha, I can't stay up any longer. I wanted to wait for the Direct but that's another four hours away, at 9AM. So... I'll see y'all tomorrow while we discuss the new and awesome stuff that gets revealed. And I will be liking every single post in here when I get back, haha.

 

[Banjodorf]

Yeah. I mean, Mega Man is a beast, but compared to Ridley, Mewtwo, K. Rool, etc. he doesn't look very "badass."

I'm super pumped for him, but Brawl had Wolf, Ike, Snake, Lucario, MK; we need summa THAT action.

 

[Xigger]

Thank you: I'm not disappointed anymore.

Besides Smash, are there any other games you're hoping to see? Wouldn't mind some information about X

 

[Guybrush20X6]

We need some info about those Yoshi games. Yarn Yoshi and Yoshi's new Island

 

[MasterOfKnees]

Besides Smash, are there any other games you're hoping to see? Wouldn't mind some information about X

Kirby, Mario Kart, Yoshi's New Island, Pokémon Bank, and if we're really extremely lucky a follow-up to Reggie's Metroid tease at VGX.

I'd be really surprised if we wouldn't get anything on the upcoming Kirby Triple Deluxe game. I don't think I've seen anything on it, yet it launches on January 11th already.

I'd like to see some info regarding Yarn Yoshi.

 

[Radical Bones]

MK8 would be nice, a more polished trailer than what we saw at E3. There's plenty of trailers up on the Japanese site for Kirby Triple Deluxe, so if we don't get any I won't be that upset.

I really want to see Yarn Yoshi, Kirby's Epic Yarn was such a fun game, I can't wait to see what they do here. It's kind of like a sequel/homage to Yoshi's Story IMO.

New Metroid would be insane, but I feel that that'll come to us next year.

DK:TF will be pushed on us again, which is okay, the game looks awesome, but I would rather see something else.

I'd love to see more from X, and more third party games, perhaps something a bit darker?





Oh, and seeing as my new Majora's Mask phone case came today, I'm taking it as a sign that MM will be ported and remade for the 3DS.

 

[PLATINUM7]

I've seen two additional gameplay videos after it's reveal.

Here's the footage from the Japanese site I mentioned:

What? No "Here WII go"? I have to admit, I'm more disappointed than I would otherwise be. Still. ****in hype train.
