I don't do BINGO for Directs, just E3 (and that Switch Presentation)

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

I had a dream last night that started as a shopping trip, then became a murder mystery when I found a corpse. I joined a group of people and it became a survival horror than turned into some kind of conspiracy theory thing when we found out some guy and his company were somehow involved and the company had ties to a secret society or something that had ties to the government since George Washington

Also in the dream I broke some guys neck

Moments like these are why I miss the Illuminati account

 

[Mythra]

I feel we are gonna get 25 minutes of the "rapid fire" announcement format and 20 of pure Mario Odyssey.

 

[A Distant Demon]

I thought my Samus/Metroid amiibo 2 pack wasnt supposed to come until the 28th

Just checked, it comes in on the 15th, so I can get Samus Returns on release day now

I place bets on a similar format myself.

Which is cool I liked the rapid fire don't give you time to breath of the E3 presentation.

Side note: I wonder if Pauline's return will lead to her joining the spin-off crew.

 

[Opossum]

A mix of plausible and unexpected stuff. The Rosalina thing, for those wondering, is about how Rogersbase keeps hearing rumors of Rosalina being in something.

 

[Tree Gelbman]

I hope so. I'd love see her in Mario Kart/Mario Party/Tennis, etc.

 

[Schnee117]

Biggest hope is something Wonderful 101 related but I'm not holding my breath.
In terms of plausibility it's Xenoblade 2 getting a release date for December.

Well...

 

[Guybrush20X6]

Question: What AAA titles on the horizon do you think will be willing to sacrifice the precious grapixs for a switch version?

Breath of the Wild proved that open world titles work well and that's the default model of game these days...

 

[allison]

new Smash game is announced with Steve from Minecraft

I was actually serious about this one by the way

I love this forum.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Oh this intresting

 

[Tree Gelbman]

I'd rather Bayo 3 than Wonderful 102 or whatever.

I'm excited to see Bayo take her smash success to a wider level.

 

[Coricus]

Oh this intresting

The Splatoon Reddit found the Japanese announcement for it a while ago.

Veeeery curious as to what's going on.

Spoiler: Datamine Spoilers

We've known that there's Grizzco themed weapons for a while following the leakers digging through the data, wonder how it'll tie in beyond simply being able to use them.

 

[Aurane]

I'm with ya. No joke.

 

[DJ3DS]

I would take Pauline over Pink Gold Baby Dry Rosalina & Knuckles any day.

 

[praline]

So we are getting Tiki, Caeda and Draug revealed today. Minerva too.

 

[Deleted member]

I saw this on my Facebook feed and I'm NOT SURE whether this is real or not.
I hope and think it isn't, but I'll leave it here to see if anyone can confirm it because I'm getting really tired of what this started

 

[Opossum]

You have a source?

 

[Wario Bros.]

One 4chan "leak" I saw started with "Only the Switch stuff. 3DS stuff is predictable."

How do we know the 3DS stuff is "predictable"? I call lazy and playing it safe.

EDIT: Here just in case http://boards.4chan.org/v/thread/390161763

Would Push Dustin be the one to ask this? I mean, last time I checked, he knows Japanese culture better than others.

That being said, I doubt this is the reason for Splatoon's changing levels. IMO, I always saw it more as "We're making you do some levels even if you don't like them as we want you to actually play with all the levels than just one level whether it's because you like that level better, because you adapted the best strategy for that level or because competitive practices."

 

[praline]

No, it was just a guess.

 

[Opossum]

No, it was just a guess.

You should've made it more clear then IMO.

I find it funny praline said he hadn't liked MHA that much but he has an Earphone Jack avi now

Actually, I looked it up and...

This is... stupid, it's all it is.
They're basically saying they know how someone wants to play a game better than the person knows themselves.

I thought we had reached the conclusion options can never be a bad thing, how can the Splatoon devs be so ****ing stupid?

I'm Pretty sure its the weapons

I wonder how many people go wtf when they see my name on Splatoon 2.

It did in my head.

Well it makes sense to me. You bought the game, but they made it, and they can do what they want with the maps and modes

 

[Coricus]

I think I saw someone link an interview once that said they're using Shadow Dragon instead of the original Fire Emblem because they can get art from it.

So no Draug. The other three have art though, so they're still highly plausible.

But then we wouldnt have a knight unit playable. He was also in TMS...

What you didn't see Kellam there in the background of every trailer?

 

[Tree Gelbman]

I actually hope ''Wild Link" is real. Not only for salt.

But because I want some of the sick ass weapons they could equip him with from Breath of the Wild.

 

[Guybrush20X6]

And that's why Other M has locked story trigger doors and not organic obstacles. Rosalina forbid someone do things out of order.

I wonder how many people actually read the full Rolling Stone interview instead of just getting angry over the Splatoon part.

I linked it several days ago and it didn't get much attention. I actually thought it had an interesting insight on the design differences between western and Japanese games.

Besides, this guy isn't even in charge of the project, like heck if his opinion is the top authority on how it works.

I bet no one even noticed he's a French guy originally trained by Ubisoft that Nintendo hired on instead of one of the usual Japanese staff. One of two non-Japanese people working at Nintendo's primary studio. On that note, I remember a story about the other one making a forum post a long time ago about being in college or something and having aspirations to work at Nintendo.

Trivia is more fun than getting upset over Salmon Run.

 

[Wario Bros.]

Nintendo of America has their YouTube page up

 

[praline]

Still 2 1/2 hours left, riht?

Draug would break the game anyway.

 

[New_Dumal]

If a new Smash game or port be announced, will Smashboards allow us to revive the Leaks group?
Oh... the good old days of debunking photoshop and "I have a uncle who works at Nintendo"

 

[Opossum]

TMS also had Virion and Tharja, but that didn't help them when it came to Warriors.

I think Draug has an outside shot, but there are easily several SD characters to get through before him IMO.
