Nintendo 3DS Direct on 8/29

[4cast]

C'mooon, Chorus Kids...

and yeah, I honestly think they're late unlockables, and that the "missing stage" on the 3DS leak is a Rhythm Heaven stage. Honestly they're the last newcomer I still have hope for.

But Chorus Kids are 3 characters (Which would be a huge Middle Finger to Ice Climber fans) Do you mean you want Marshal?

So wait, will this be for English only people too, like most directs? Looking at the first few comments makes me think it will be Japanese only. :T Also, that is suuuuper early in the morning where I am. (4 am) [](/ajugh)

 

[Svenshinhan]

Good thing I've been learning Japanese! Hoping for at least another character reveal, if they're going to feature Smash at all (this close to release it would be weird not to). I'm also curious to see if what they end up showing will be influenced at all by the recent leaks.

 

[JaidynReiman]

Speculation and hype running at an all time high? More like an all-time low...

 

[Turmalinium]

FINALLY! We waited ages for a new direct.

 

[The Original Robot boy]

come on guys ride with us into the streets of hype!

 

[BobEugCox]

Dixie or K.Rool please!

 

[The Light Music Club]

Wait so in EST would that still be the 29th? It is right?

 

[Ragna22]

Newcomer trailer?
Bowser Jr.
Shulk
DHD
Dr. mario in 1 trailer?
Hopefully :3 (most unlikely though)

I highly doubt that, even if Sakurai knew about the leak I think it'd take more than three weeks to make a CGI trailer just for the leaked characters.

 

[WwwWario]

So the direct is tomorrow... Friday... Friday has 6 letters in it.... 6 + 8 = pasta, so if Earth still plays chess at 36pm, that can only mean one thing:

Mario confirmed.

 

[Prism]

THE RUMORS ABOUT A FRIDAY DIRECT WERE TRUE?

WHAT? LIKE ACTUALLY, WHAT?

 

[Sahfarry]

It'll talk about Smash 3DS no doubt. I just wonder what other games that they will be talking about. New games mostly? I mean what big games are coming out that we already know about? If there IS any, I'd honestly like to know.

 

[Tollhouse]

They already confirmed that.

I really don't wanna hear more info on smash run. lol We must've has the same information repeated to us 3 or 4 times now.

Did you know that You can customize powers in Smash Run?

 

[quotidianmusic]

I really really hope it isn't delayed... I just got a Japanese 3DS.

Hahaha so did I, and stuff like that always happens to me

*bangs head on table repeatedly.

Probably like Pokemon OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire. Those are the only two I can think of.

 

[Aguki90]

The time has come... The real truth is there!

 

[WinterShorts]

Sarcasm since Sakurai won't shut the f*** up about it

Oooohh.....ok.

 

[JaidynReiman]

THE RUMORS ABOUT A FRIDAY DIRECT WERE TRUE?

WHAT? LIKE ACTUALLY, WHAT?

No they weren't, the fake NoA leaker just got lucky and a Nintendo Direct on Friday was happening.

 

[ShInXBolt]

My thoughts exactly

 

[SmashAdr]

japan only direct???? don't think it will be big to be honest

 

[Themandme]

I do not think there will be a character because they would not reveal it for japan but not America at the same time.maybe a veteran.

 

[Delzethin]

If this really is at 7:00 AM Eastern...I doubt there'll be more than a Japanese version of the Direct. We might see some smaller information, but I'd be surprised if there was anything as big as a character reveal when it's that freakishly early for part of the world.

 

[LordCQ]

This might not even be Smash Bros related tho.

 

[Wren.]

It'd be awesome to get a Metroid 3DS announcement, and maybe a little somethin somethin on Ridley?

 

[A_Phoenix_Down]

Maybe this was the reason for the boring PotD's this past week. Building the hype caused from the leak by ignoring the fact and then explodes with crazy reveals during the Direct!

 

[bradleysmash123]

Dixie or K.Rool please!

OMG YESS ID BE HAPPY WITH THEM BOTH!:D sorry for the shouting theyre my most wanted characters!!

 

[extremechiton]

is this just a regular 3ds direct?
i thought it was a smash 3ds direct,

oh well, we will more than definitly get some major smash news anyway.

 

[Gene]

Eh, people are still going to complain.

 

[SmashBros50]

oh my gosh new character

 

[LasermasterA]

Golden Sun 4 announcement!!!!

And then Isaac confirmed for Smash 4

This sums it up right here.

 

[synesthe-sia]

It will be 10 minutes straight of Sakurai staring directly into the camera and gently tapping a pen on his desk. Then it'll get louder and louder and the stare will become more aggressive. He'll start to crack a smile smile at first and then he'll laugh as a newcomer trailer starts to play and reveals Metal Mario to spite everyone.

And Tanooki Mario as well

[Jason the Yoshi]

I'm not catching dis one, nor do I think Smash will be covered, but here's hoping to Majoras Mask 3D and some coverage of Pokemon ORAS and SB Shattered Crystal!

But Chorus Kids are 3 characters (Which would be a huge Middle Finger to Ice Climber fans) Do you mean you want Marshal?

Absolutely not. I'd really dislike it if Marshall got in.

Yes, there are three, but they do not have to function like the Ice Climbers. Instead, they'd share one giant hurtbox, but instead make up for it with having seemingly wacky disjointed hitboxes, especially if they could add a rhythm mechanic into the mix.

Marshall's honestly dull. I feel the Chorus Kids are a far better representation of what Rhythm Heaven is all about. That, and they're much cuter.
