Smash Bros Direct on April 8th, 3pm PST!!

[Kapus]

Hmm, I just got back home from my classes, and there's about an hour to go before the direct. I'm glad I was able to get home at a decent hour.

I must say, I am quite excited for this event. This is actually the most hyped I've been for this game since Mega Man's reveal trailer (and I was all over the place on that day). I'm just really eager to see what kind of information is going to be revealed here. It's going to be the first super-informative update since the developer direct. There are basically no limits. Since the developer direct at E3, we have gotten daily pictures with occasionally cryptic captions, and a few short videos for newcomers. The daily pictures would occasionally show something extensive, such as the Super Mario 3D Land stage, but they're still rather brief updates with little information. But with the direct, there's basically nothing stopping them from telling us anything. Anything could be revealed. Anything can be discussed. Anything can happen. And it's 30 minutes long.

I do my best to be calm and reserved at all times, but on the inside I'm squealing with excitement.

 

[Starlol9]

I think... I'm just going to try and play some Professor Layton to calm down... Maybe it will give me luck...

Jussssttt a little bit of Hoooppppeeeeee!

 

[FalKoopa]

[Nintendotard]

[RelaxAlax]

Spoiler

The train approaches the destination. (This is the last time I post it I swear)
But whatever happens guys ... we made it together.
We have eachother.
Let's get out there and truly witness the moment an enemy from Samus' past arrives!
Or a swordsman and samurais fighting beside one another!

 

[PigmaskColonel]

By the time I'm posting something another three pages have already appeared.

...OH SHII-
A PAGE AND IT'S COHORTS ATTACKED!! WHAT DO YOU DO? Attack, Magic, Items, Run...

 

[EnthusedPanda]

Is there a way to get the social stream without a facebook account?

 

[Sarki Soliloquy]

I dont know if this was posted yet, but apparently Nintendo of America played a joke, posting an image of a heavily requested character on their twitter, saying "Did you enjoy the nintendo direct?" then quickly removed it.

luckily someone got a screen shot and posted it on tumblr.

Expect me to vomit blood if this is real!

Someone already got a pic, it's almost 31 minutes long.
Earlier in the thread.

edit:FalNinja'd

Is the link for the YouTube stream open yet?

I second this request

 

[Lugubrious]

The sad irony is, that despite my unceasing hype for this direct, I must go leave for work right before it airs.

Oh, well...

 

[N3ON]

Keep in mind that collapsing a video doesn't actually help, so please refrain from posting anything but links to them. Thanks.

[StreetPassWanter]

You guys, could've sang this, but no one replied to my thing. Oh well. Too bad I only got 3 people to do it. : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VehvQt99HAw

Also, hype up for 16 minutes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XfakyKZdAiA

 

[Shin F.]

Mfw, Palutena has nothing on this

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Is that whole Shrek thing some kind of miiverse joke or something?

I'm behind the times when it comes to common smash memes

 

[Morbi]

One day we will all look back on this thread and think we were drunk... But still. The hype is real.

I never look back; it is more ideal to look towards the future while living in the present. That being said, I wouldn't be surprised if most of us were ****-faced.

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

Only about 45 more minutes to go. Good luck for Yoshi and Wario if they're going to be revealed to us.

On a side note, I'll be out watching the Smash Bros. Direct, but I plan to come back here once it's over.

 

[The Drilling Juggernaut]

Calling a newcomer, Mewtwo, and Mii.


Also, I've been here for hours. I need to make my presence known before the direct.

 

[WoapGang]

FalKoopa you must be up pretty darn late for these things.

Shrek is totally the most wanted newcomer worldwide. I mean, he's green and fat like K. Rool and is dressed in white like Palutena. What's not to like?

 

[Guybrush20X6]

2 pages in less than 10 minutes. this is getting insane.

45 minutes to go.

 

[Inawordyes]

Quick! What's everybody doing to pass the time until the Direct starts?

I'm playing Europa Universalis IV (the MEIOU & Taxes mod, specifically) and using command console cheats because I got tired of waiting for forever for my Pueblo Empire to get anywhere, haha.

Mfw, Palutena has nothing on this

Yay, I'm on the list this time!

 

[FalKoopa]

FalKoopa you must be up pretty darn late for these things.

I am. It's close to 3 am now. Luckily I don't have classes tomorrow.

Imagine if Ridley gets revealed. 25 pages in 2 minutes.

 

[Malcolm Belmont]

DO YOU SMELLLLLLLLL WHAT SAKURAI IS COOKING!!!!!!!!!

Oh ho ho ho, you got me! I laughed more than I should have.

 

[ZeldaMaster]

Got off of school early (rather ditched it) for the Direct! Can't wait!

Wario and Yoshi would be fairly anti-hype. I mean; it isn't as though any competent speculator doesn't already realize that they will return with minimal changes... Yoshi might have some changes, but nothing worth announcing a Direct a week early. IMO.

This reminds me of the 'Shrek is Love, Shrek is Life' video... That scared me for life... -.-

That's crazy. Its only 5:20 in the evening on the eastern part of the states. The Hype is too real. I respect your ability to be awake at such a trying time.

Yay, I'm on the list this time!

I'm training up my Pokémon Red and Blue team by fighting the Elite Four over and over.

YOSHI MUST NOT BE REVEALED!! It'll mean bad things for Yarn Yoshi, and I want that game so badly

 

[Meelow]

Soon! The direct will be here!

 

[LF2K]

And here I thought this kind of hype only happened at E3.

Responding to this thread... and now I am going to pick my sister up from school... and then we will wait... doing nothing to pass the time... nothing.

Imagine if Ridley gets revealed. 25 pages in 2 minutes.

Now imagine if by some epic trolling of Nintendo, Goku is revealed. 50 pages in 1 minute? lol

 

[Cutthemac]

Mfw, Palutena has nothing on this

Well, trying to find myself in there wasted a couple minutes.

 

[SchAlternate]

YOU WANT HYPE?

COURSE YA DO!
