I really don't pay attention to Splatoon as much so I thought he was some sort of like NPC. Even then, the Inklings are main characters of the series and them not getting in first is like King Hippo getting in Smash before Little Mac
Agent 3 is literally your player Inkling (i.e. the main character) in a pre-set outfit and color (though the eyes are what your natural color is).

It is nothing like King Hippo getting in before Little Mac.

Agent 3 is the Inkling. It's the name your character is called in the single-player campaign. "Inkling" and "Agent 3" are literally just different names for the same character.
I see. Even then, most people call them Inklings so I didn't even know they had official names

Still to go back to the actual info.

Anything that can outright kill it?

Aside from that huge ****ing typo and I'm convinced its a typo. People aren't that stupid.

It's amazing how the the leak actually sounds sorta plausible riiiiight until you get to the Smash stuff.

Barring the SFZ date typo of course.

I'll bite the gun.

What about the Smash stuff is implausible.

I mean that's one of the things I can't find anything inherently wrong.


Devil's Third is not getting a discount price.

Implausible is the wrong word here, but really, Wolf, Snake, Isaac, Dixie AND Inklings? It just sounds waaay too good to be true.

Another weird thing is Fatal Frame's supposed delay, apparently it's so it doesn't compete with Star Fox Zero but that doesn't make sense. Fatal Frame is really niche and is likely going to be a digital-only game in the US, there is no "competition'.

It'd make more sense to delay XCX if that were the case but all he mentions about it is that it's going through odd glitches.

Eh. To be fair he says probably. I don't think he knows why.

Still, I just saw "Sold Snake."

Lol.

I guess DK being a series that is always made by foreign studios has an impact in how incorporated the series is in with other Nintendo games. Even Dixie wasn't in Mario Maker and she's been used a lot more recently than DK Jr.

Though I guess DK Jr. Has the game on the NES so he's a bit more relevant to the Mario Maker style...

Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, and Donkey Kong Jr are all playable in Mario Maker as costumes.

And that's without us knowing all the costumes.

Isn't possible at least Dixie and Cranky are costumes?

Series are grouped together and theres no room for any other DK reps.

If anybody wants the Mii Fighter amiibo, they just went up on Amiami.

Both Pixel Marios, too.

What's that?
I actually don't fully know, but it is some Pokémon even, I guess? MegaSlowbro was shown off last year. And everyone agrees that the next Pokémon games will most likely be revealed in the opening of this year's, which starts in 20 minutes. ^^

If all the Zygarde focus so far is any indication that may be where they show off Pokemon Z (or ZX/ZY depending on how they do this.)

I really need Pokemon Z, just so I have a Xerneas to finish my living Pokedex.

Masuda and the ORAS director are at Worlds. Make of that what you will.

Also, it's the 20th anniversary in Japan of the first Pokemon game.

HGSS were announced at Worlds in the past.

Anyway, we'll find out soon enough.

Well, both the XY legendaries outta be catchable if the new game is about Zygarde (which is almost certanly will be). ^^

And Masuda has tweeted taht Pokémon fans should watch the opening, which is sure to have 'a' reveal now.

Also I just read on Serebii that Masuda tweeted that peeps should watch the opening of the Worlds this year. Which is when new stuff comes out.

Being Greninja'd is so fitting right now.

Anyone got a link? The Pokemon Twitch doesn't have anything.

And I think it's in four hours, not twenty minutes.

But everyone said it was gonna be, well, 18 minutes ago. :/ It's not for another 4 hours..? Really?

Even Serebii Joe said it would be now, I think. ._.

Depends on timezones. IT says on the website that is't eastern times so maybe I'm getting my time zones mixed up

EDIT: I double checked and if I'm correct this time it'll begin in 30 minutes from now.

Good NEWS, the twitch started a countdown.

I have a serious anger issue.

Lost a match of Splatoon after I personally got 17 kills and the closest was 4. Raged. Self-loathed.

Just a game, Radical...

My internet is fricken effed. So slow these days I hate it. I need to call my provider. Twitch hardly even works. If this was the E3 stream I'd be furious.
