I have to admit, a YouTube link would be nice to have up with the Direct feed. Just in case on of them goes down, likely the latter.
Expect it to lag like crazy. They'll post a YouTube link hopefully via their Twitter or something, like they have the previous Directs.

Oh man I'm really pumped!! Less than 2 hours left!

I'm doing homework to pass time. Hopefully I'll be done before the stream starts (well not really, it's pretty dang long!)

I've finished all my exams for the day, so nothing to do now but hype (or do homework, but that's due 2 days from now).

Don't do that. The direct will be there after you are done.
it depends on which class, honestly.


but whatever, I'm facing a hard decision whether or not to drop a class atm so what should I know?


EDIT: whoops. off topic, but I really need to get this stress outta my system. sorry guys.

I had a hard time watching animes because the Direct was the back of mind the entire time. Best of luck if you're going to do this. You'll need it. :p
Thanks. I have the ability to put anything aside to do homework. I am able to put off looking at the SSB4 Official Site Dailys Pictures until every Thursday. This Direct will be just as fine.

Apparantly it's supposed to be 30 minutes, so I guess you don't need to hope.
Oh! Cool, half hour about Smash 4.... That'll be epic for sure !

To pass the time, I just have Ryoshima Coast from Okami playing in the background.

The hype is too real, guys. This is the moment we've been waiting for.

Right? I just checked and apparently my assignment is due on Wednesday; so I guess I am not doing that until Wednesday! I already realize that I should really do the homework; but at the same time, this is the first time I have been excited for Smash in awhile. So I am going to be an idiot and procrastinate.

One the one hand, I want to skip class for this.
But on the other hand, if I go to class I don't have to take the final. (You can have at least one absence and not take the final, and I already have one absence.)

I'm also pretty sure that if I skip class to watch the direct, then I'll have an abundance of Internet issues as punishment from some divine source.
Eh, maybe I can get out early...

Getting off work now. I have craft beer that I've been chilling in the fridge since last night, I'm going to make a bowl of cheddar jalapeno popcorn, and I'm already wearing my lucky Nintendo boxers. My phone will be on silent and my girlfriend won't be home from work for another 4 hours so I can act as fanboyish as I want without being judged. Tonight's going to be a good night.

Actually that is a good point; announcing the Direct a week early was a great idea to inform all of the viewers... but that will obviously be a detriment to the quality. The Direct with Little Mac was bad enough. But whatever, I will tune in and try it... probably give up and watch it one Youtube a few minutes after it finishes.

Hype is like a fire-hose at full blast. If you lose control it's going to cause a lot of damage and look hysterical from a distance.

My hype is like a serene Magikarp, floundering helplessly in the dry grass.

In less than two hours my hype will evolve AND DEVOUR THE SOULS OF MY MORTAL ENEMIES!

Gyarados confirmed for Smash 4.

...I don't wanna....

i'm on spring break anyway
Yeah, I have been there. In College I am able to get rid of some online tests at my leisure, my Spring Break is the opportune time to get rid of tests to give my other classes some breathing room.

I wish... Gyarados should have been in Smash already! Ever since Smash 64... but no! Apparently Mewtwo is more important. Blasphemy.

Welcome Lozjam. The community is nice here, but during character debates....tensions can rise.

Spring Break is the opportune time to delay the inevitable and fall behind on all of your work. Or at least that is how I have been doing it all of these years.

debating skipping a class quiz just to watch all of this!
I'd actually say do the class, everytime I've tried to watch Nintendo Directs live, they've always freezed at points so I end up watching segments later on youtube.

The worst part of it is...I have to leave my house with only friggin fifteen minutes before the Direct airs. Do you realize how much agony I'll be in while I'm on the train?!

This is pretty much the go-to hype thread. Always feels good with those.

I'm playing Brawl in the meantime. How fitting! Playing Classic Mode on Intense using 1 Stock with Mario. Any tips?
