There was Smash news after all. Just some Mii Fighter outfits, but still.
Amazing Direct. Still not happy with Amiibo DLC, though.

Welp, gonna preorder at GameStop (sorry Toys "Я" Us, but Smash costumes are more interesting than a $5 amiibo).

No doubt the costumes are :4miigun:.

Great and informative Direct. SUPER excited for Splatoon!

The Splatoon direct has me fully convinced that Nintendo is trying to get in the hip crowd with the kids and "playa's".

Can't blame them. I'm getting a VERY strange "The World Ends With You" vibe from this game.

I just want more NX news, but 2016... Ugh, the wait is strong.
If it's a home console: I will regret buying my Wii U.
If it's a handheld: well, at least, I didn't waste money on an "upgraded" 3DS.

Eh, really? Got a prediction right, for once!

Inkling deconfirmed. :troll:

Doesn't matter! Biggest question would be... is "T. Yoshisaur Munchakoopas" even canon? Wikipedia says so. :troll:
It will probably be considered canon unless Miyamoto or any other Mario producer were to retcon it in the end like they always do. :p

Better download that demo thingy.

Good thing I ordered the Splatoon amiibo 3-pack. I just hope I don't have to wait too long for it to be mailed to my house (I did say no to one day delivery).

Wait, that was all? Just costumes? Meh. It is what it is, I guess.
Did they announce multiplayer options as DLC because if they didn't then rip competitive Splatoon. :troll:

Yeeeah... Don't care much for the Mii Making on Sm4sh, but that's cool, I guess.
Me neither.

I for one don't think it is. This is the same thing as naming Amy Rose "Sally Acorn" in Sonic CD's US manual.

Speaking of The World Ends With You, how is that game?
Very good action RPG with a unique and fast-paced battle system. The story and characters are entertaining, for the most part.

It has a high learning curve, though. During a battle, you're controlling 2 characters with 2 different inputs (the D-pad and touch screen) on 2 screens at once. It'll take you a while to get used to it.

Or how Sonic Heroes's instruction manual implied that Eggman is a feminist. No really, Sega of America seriously wrote that in the manual.

If it's backwards compatible, that is.
I want it to be a handheld, but I have a feeling (:4shulk:) that it's going to be the complete opposite. If it is, watch me go Super Saiyan and develop a hatred for the company, wanting the NX to become Nintendo's Dreamcast. :smirk:

Well not really, but I'd be disappointed.

if he is a feminist, why did he send robots to kidnap Amy in Sonic Adventure?
Speaking of Amy and Sonic CD, she was a psychic in that game. What happened to that ability?
Went away when she became an annoying *****. Glad she isnt like that anymore

They decided to save the psychic for their magnum opus.

You know who I'm talking about.

Was busy watching the Splatoon Direct. Had a Flash plugin crash early on, shaving a couple juicy minutes off. Not to mention two lag-enduced time cuts! Firefox, why must you be an asshole during a Direct!? Off to watch a second time!

Also, looks like I'll be able to do the Global Testfire this week! Can't wait for this savory preview! Gonna need some dipping sauce!

Still doesn't beat the fact that we never had a new game since the Gamecube Era. Plus Captain Falcon these days is only known just because of Smash and memes.

But hey, at least Pikmin and Starfox were lucky this generation because they are Miyamoto's precious babies. I even bet that Krystal would be retconned in the new game since he's biased towards Star Fox 64.
Your concerns are understandable. F-Zero has been in a very uncertain state for a good few generations now.

However, I tend to think of the whole MK8 situation optimistically. Perhaps the incorporation of anti-gravity, along with Mute City and Big Blue DLC tracks, is Nintendo's way of gauging a new generation of players to the franchise for interest in an eventual new game.

Besides, I have faith that Nintendo has the creativity to put a fresh spin on F-Zero's anti-gravity and courses. Just because Mario Kart made it an endemic feature doesn't mean there's no more room for nuance. Not to mention the tons of new modes and features they could design. Hell, don't you want a campaign mode where you get to play as captain Falcon in flashy, testosterone-surging, Falcon-Punch-in-yo-face breaking, beat-'em-up sections?

Remember, F-Zero is a bit of a risky bargain to develop after its sales records over the past few titles. Can't help but think Miyamoto's statement on them needing to make a unique control interface for an F-Zero U being PR speak of, "The dev costs aren't worht it!" But with this fan demand, only time will tell. Here's to seeing F-Zero get the StarFox treatment!

What if Nintendo releases a third Mario Kart DLC pack with Samurai Goroh as one of the characters? How mad would people be?

Why Eggman was saving her from the clutches of that mysogynic blue hedgehog. Sonic was planning on taking advantage of her body when they were going on a date to Twinkle Park, hence why he sent Zero to save her. :troll:

Yeah, Sega was probably on drugs when writing that section of the manual since we can't imagine an egolomaniac scientist supporting female rights. Besides, that's where Topaz the G.U.N. agent comes in anyway.
