New Nintendo Direct Tomorrow (January 14th, 2015)

[Mrwhatzitooya]

I'm really hoping for the announcement of a new Wario Land game actually. It's been a long time since my favourite Nintendo character has been on a real adventure , so I hope it's his time to shine!

 

[Soul.]

Well, hype time I guess. New 3DS stuff is a given. I wonder what titles will be made exclusively for that thing, since Xenoblade is one of the New 3DS exclusive titles.
I'm going to try to keep my expectations low for this.

 

[Pazzo.]

Here's hoping....

 

[Zeppelin]

I'm excited to see some Star Fox!!!! Going to play the crap out of that game lol

 

[Pale Tuna]

Hope to see Mewtwo's moveset and some Xenoblade.

 

[Modular Zeal]

Mewtwo and Dark Pit trailer, please! <3

But Dark Pit was already featured in Palutena's trailer... -__-

 

[fenyx4]

Here's a Time Zone converter that I configured, in case anyone wants to know the time; maybe it could be included in the opening post for convenience?:

----------------------

Yes; another presentation! I'm hoping for more mentions of Mewtwo (possibly a unique Super Smash Bros. 4 "veteran" trailer for him), as well as more news on The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3DS, "Star Fox for Wii U", and Splatoon. News for F-Zero and/or Mother 3 (English localization) would just be full of pure win.

I anticipate something Battle Frontier-ish related for Pokemon OmegaRuby/AlphaSapphire might be mentioned, although I'll be somewhat irritated if that happens, since Game Freak's stance is that the games are "complete" on cartridge, not to mention that the Hoenn Battle Frontier should have come with the game in the first place.

 

[Losnar]

9am EST... just in time for work! Yeeee

 

[Stoven]

CHOO CHOO!

 

[Ravioko]

I'm placing my bet on this horse:

If the New 3DS comes out the 26th, I'd die of excitement. Everything else here sounds decent.

 

[SphericalCrusher]

If you live in Japan where the last direct confirmed a Spring 2015 release date then it is a spring title.

Don't live in Japan. USA here. No idea if this is a spring title, I was expecting summer... but MAN IT LOOKS AMAZING!

 

[LordCQ]

Please give us one more *smash trailer flames intro* and Mewtwo!! I'll have to arrive earlier at work to watch this live!

 

[Selenite]

Don't live in Japan. USA here. No idea if this is a spring title, I was expecting summer... but MAN IT LOOKS AMAZING!

It is a spring title as it is releasing in Japan in Spring 2015. It was confirmed in the last (Japanese) Nintendo Direct back in November 2014.

 

[Ryan.]

I hope they show Mewtwo off a little bit if he's ready for that. I won't be able to see this live though unfortunately because I'll be in class. Hopefully I can watch it later on in the day.

 

[Cthulhu_MD]

My body is Reggie!

 

[DeiSakuChris]

Wolf pls thank you

 

[AirFair]

Mother 3 or Majora's Mask 3D gameplay pls.

 

[TheDarkKnightNoivern]

So will this finally be when we see SMT X FE, I mean it'll officially be 2 years since it was announced on the 23rd

This is a North American Nintendo Direct. Obviously we're talking spring title for North America, not Japan. =)

 

[PsychicHero]

I just hope....that skip over Mario party10 no one cares about thAt brunt out series.

In smash news I would just be happy with a Lucas return

Or just make a good mario party, hell pull a 3D world and make an awesome trailer at the very least

 

[ミスティック Speed]

But Dark Pit was already featured in Palutena's trailer... -__-

Doesn't count. He didn't get his own "Dark Pit blah blah blah!" phrase...thingy.

 

[TheDarkKnightNoivern]

Doesn't count. He didn't get his own "Dark Pit blah blah blah!" phrase...thingy.

I still don't get why they didn't just reveal him then

 

[n8han11]

Doesn't count. He didn't get his own "Dark Pit blah blah blah!" phrase...thingy.

Why bother making a trailer focusing on a clone? The trailer with doesn't count since most of the focus was on
.

Things that Nintendo fans will always speculate in Nintendo Directs/E3s until the sun explodes:

-F-Zero
-Star Fox
-Mother 3 re-release or Mother 4
-Remake of *insert wildly popular N64/GCN game here*
-New Smash Bros (it's been two months since the last one, what the hell is Nintendo waiting on?!)
-Long awaited sequel to or reboot of *insert cult classic here*
-Localization of *insert Japanese exclusive game here*
-Wildly improbable Nintendo/Third Party crossover
-Pokemon MMORPG
-Metroid game that somehow satisfies both 2D and 3D fans

 

[Sahfarry]

Nintendo of Australia released a tweet at the same time as the announcement. The contents of said tweet?

"YOU GOT BOOST POWER!"

Youre giving the Fzero fan so much hope.

Some info on the new Starfox would be a nice surprise.

Surprise? I expect this.

It would make sense though; because think about it, Smash 3DS costs $40 (i think) and Smash Wii U costs $60, so to accommodate for the fact that they wouldn't be getting all of the money that the whole game could get them, they instead charge you up (since they aren't letting you off the hook that easily)

Then that would mean different regions would have completely different prices then. Smash 3DS in Australia is $60 and Smash Wii U is $80 -___-

I mean, they COULD do a KOF XIII and give you $5 characters >_>

 

[EpixAura]

"We will be giving all characters invincibility frames on their recoveries, as well as giving rolls more invincibility frames when you are behind in stocks or percent. We will also be removing pivoting of all sorts, as well as that one technique some guy found last week, and the other 3 found last month. I forgot what they were called, but they look hard to do, which is unhealthy for the game. Anyway, they're gone. This is to help balance the game for competitive players and those who just want to play for fun.
Please understand."

Who knows with Nintendo? From the looks of it, it appears as though it's subject to change.

Edit: Then again, there was some Japanese text in the vid, yet most of it was English... so we have no idea what region the price was supposed to be for.

Seems pretty accurate.

 

[Mach5Mike]

Another out-of-nowhere announcement like they did for Majora's Mask 3D would be nice, preferably F-Zero or Metroid, but I'd really like to see them comment on the amiibo shortages and announce that we'll get restocks of rarer amiibo figures in the near future.

Also, Mewtwo DLC trailer and release date :D

 

[ItsMeBrandon]

-F-Zero
-Star Fox
-Mother 3 re-release or Mother 4

I can agree with this, for the most part. But I thought Nintendo has already been doing a lot of cross-over games. Legend of Zelda x Dynasty Warriors, Fire Emblem x SMT (well, there's at least been the intention to make this one), Pokémon x Tekken, and recently, Super Mario x PAD. Smash Bros. might as well count at this point. Unless something else is meant by "Nintendo/Third Party crossover?"

And I couldn't tell you if a Mother 3 re-release might happen, but I thought it had already been established that Shigesato Itoi wasn't interested in working on Mother games anymore. Plus, it may not be official, but there is that fangame, Mother 4, that's coming out soon... eventually.

 

[The 0ne]

Yo I don't even care about Mother 3 at this point. What I want is either a remade Earthbound in HD with 3D models at 60fps with full PSI and battle animations, or all that for a Mother 4. PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEZZZZZZZ

 

[MarioMeteor]

 

[LittleKirby]

I find two things wrong here:
1. The tweet is gone.
2. Its not 7/8/13

 

[SS-bros14]

Top three wanted things:
1. New 3DS announcement for US and UK to come sometime next month. Or even better this month.
2. Some Mewtwo Smash gameplay, and announcement that also with the Mewtwo Smash code you get a Mew code for Pokemon XY and ORAS.
3. Kirby and the Rainbow Curse info.

 

[Flaxr XIII]

Can we get a Splatoon release date? And hopefully some Amiibo function to get character costumes in game?
Please let there be some SMT x FE news too.
