If this happens, I don't know what we'll think.

Do we call the leak real or fake?

That is what we call a coincidence. It happens (The leak predicting Richter and the leak predicting characters of the day). None of the characters there are particularly outrageous. If the models arent the same, we cannot call it real. It would remain a fake (unless information surfaces that corroborates the issue).

 

[Polan]

Unlikely. There WILL be disappointment.

And salt. Don't forget the salt.

also smashboards crashing. there is nothing more certain in life than smashboards crashing during a nintendo direct.

 

[StellerRJay]

Of course, i guess you already played Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo's Dungeon? God, i love that game so much

Of course! One of my most favorite games of all time! I'm really looking forward to "Chocobo's Mystery Dungeon: Every buddy!"

So happy they revived his series. It's been too long <3

 

[Roberk]

Approx. 11 hours until it's time.

How many of you can I get on the 2B boat?
I've already managed to snag a few!
We're being driven insane as a team!

2B's chances of getting in are worse after just being included in Soul Calibur 6, and I doubt a ballot would help her since Automata isn't on a Nintendo console and people would mainly vote for more mainstream characters.

Sakurai please if you have any more based taste left, give me my 2B.

"ESRB Rating PENDING to Mature". Does this mean anything significant?

 

[Gameboi834]

There are way fewer users users lurking the thread tonight. Guess it must be to prevent seeing true leaks.

Probably not if they show footage from Bayonetta. Why Would they? I have no ****ing idea.

Probably for the Treehouse.

"ESRB Rating PENDING to Mature". Does this mean anything significant?

Probably since Diablo III is being shown in the Treehouse. It does have an M rating iirc.

 

[perfectchaos83]

Probably for the Treehouse.

Oh Right. I forgot about the Treehouse. With the RP there it makes sense.

 

[Dyamanttine]

Of course! One of my most favorite games of all time! I'm really looking forward to "Chocobo's Mystery Dungeon: Every buddy!"

So happy they revived his series. It's been too long <3

So, who are you expecting to show up tomorrow? My bets are Banjo, Sora or Hero ( Dragon Quest )

"ESRB Rating PENDING to Mature". Does this mean anything significant?

That's a little odd. I think it's just a disclaimer for directs in general? The site has the box still rated as E-10+

 

[Jeck]

If this happens, I don't know what we'll think.

Do we call the leak real or fake?

We call the leak awesome.

 

[Roberk]

https://www.nintendo.com/nintendo-direct/11-01-2018/

"ESRB Rating PENDING to Mature". Does this mean anything significant?

Nope, already E10+

The Rating Pending-Mature is probably just a blanket statement for the content that Nintendo has on their site in general.

 

[Deleted member]

Between that mystery item and the Rathalos Tweet, I just know Isaac will appear. That's all I want tomorrow morning.

Everything else would be gravy.

 

[Izanagi97]

If we get a demo after the direct, I hope that audio embargo is lifted.

"ESRB Rating PENDING to Mature". Does this mean anything significant?

It’s literally right there on the case E10+

The esrb thing is the tree house since diablo 3 is there

 

[SushiRoll]

If this happens, I don't know what we'll think.

If that happens I say we riot in the streets and demand answers!

 

[Smashoperatingbuddy123]

Unlikely. There WILL be disappointment.

And salt. Don't forget the salt.

A most is because of which team was wrong about the grinch leak

 

[TheCJBrine]

Spoiler: So, Deltarune...

That ending had me worried.

Seriously, what the heck.

Also, #SansForUltimate

 

[Deleted member]

Good night everyone, have a fun direct!

 

[Shroob]

11 hours, and I'm committed to stay up to catch it.


Tonight's gonna be long.

 

[Mc.Rad]

It’s literally right there on the case E10+

The esrb thing is the tree house since diablo 3 is there

Actually yeah since that means that there’s an unrated game there as well. Something new or even something that’s going to be revealed

 

[JLU51306]

How the **** did Nintendo get an E10+ rating with Bayonetta in the game?

"ESRB Rating PENDING to Mature". Does this mean anything significant?

It means the Treehouse is going to get a little blue.

 

[Noipoi]

I'm the exact opposite. I've gotta get to sleep soon so I can wake up early.

 

[Vasculio]

If the Grinch Leak is real... i guess Mach Rider will be my new Secondary Main.

 

[monadoboy]

What I do is go the Nintendo YT channel and get it exactly from there. I think there's an option to specifically choose livestreams as well, so that'll make things easier if I'm not hallucinating on that.

I think even the Switch spoils this type of **** for you when you check the news on there.

Yeah, I'm prepared now, and that works. The livestream's up. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kAbu0LaQxmc

Anyone under 15 is not allowed to Smash.

 

[Omega Tyrant]

On the earlier topic of Vergeben's sources possibly mistaking an Isaac AT for Matthew, I'm heavily skeptical of that being the case. However according to Vergeben's words, the source that erroneously claimed Isabelle was an Echo did so after seeing some footage of her and assuming from there with the similarities to Villager she had, without being knowledgeable enough to distinguish between an Echo and clear semi-clone. So considering that I suppose it's possible the sources that claimed an Isaac AT saw a golden spiky hair boy pushing people with a big hand and immediate made the assumption it was Isaac without distinguishing if it was Matthew first.

But then a Matthew AT would have to exist alongside playable Isaac in the first place for that to be a possibility, and I'm very doubtful that Sakurai would do that. However obviously Isaac's AT move wouldn't carry over to his playable form without being nerfed into pretty much an entirely different move, so it could be possible that Sakurai made Isaac playable yet found his old AT's function to be investing enough to bring back with a nigh-identical but technically different character while simultaneously giving a boost to Golden Sun's representation.

It's definitely not a prospect to get your hopes up over, but it might not be impossible.

 

[Dixie Kong]

The night before the August direct, LOZ18 leaks a photo of Vergeben messaging him that he heard there may not be any DK characters.
Yesterday, Vergeben announces Isaac is an assist.
Coincidence?

 

[PsySmasher]

I'm the exact opposite. I've gotta get to sleep soon so I can wake up early.

I should go to sleep so I can get up for class tomorrow...

But I have HW due in 55 minutes.

And HW due tomorrow morning... which I haven't started.

Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

 

[TyrantLizardKing]

I could be eating my words in less than 12 hours, but I refuse to believe box theory is right because it’s just so...illogical. 69 characters and 7 Echo Fighters will never make sense to me, even if it’s real. I suppose my Transformers fanboy is following the wise words of Shockwave: “Clarity of thought before rashness of action.”

And regardless of people say, everything I’ve thought about points to the Grinch leak being real. I’ll downplay my hopes as much as possible, but damn does everything line up well.

 

[TheZoologist]

Good night all! Try and get some rest and not worry too much! Tomorrow is a bright day full of possibilities! Let's all stay positive and hope for the best. Love you all! See you on the other side! And Happy Halloween! <3

 

[Deleted member]

How the **** did Nintendo get an E10+ rating with Bayonetta in the game?

No jiggle physics, no nudie scenes, not "actual" bullets...

ESRB's ratings system can be gamed, and it's hilarious.

 

[monadoboy]

If Mach Rider's in and the trailer doesn't include a race with Link riding the Master Cycle Zero and Mario/co. in their respective bikes, what's the point of having Mach Rider at all?

Rating Pending is for Yoshi, Mature is for DIablo.

Slap yourself in the face, find a song that motivates you and turn it up to 11, and do that Homework as quick as you can. Once you're done you can hop in bed and dream of Sakurai.

Yeah, I'm prepared now, and that works. The livestream's up. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kAbu0LaQxmc

How'd you get the link? I still can't get it to show up on youtube.

 

[StellerRJay]

So, who are you expecting to show up tomorrow? My bets are Banjo, Sora or Hero ( Dragon Quest )

I honestly don't know who to expect. Everyone has been saying so many different names. But most seem to agree Ken will definitely be showing up.

Banjo would be really nice to have though!
