I can't be the only person just looking forward to info on the new modes, right? If they confirm DLC then that's a bonus, but I'm basically here to hope that Master/Crazy orders and the board game are entertaining.
Eh, most people seem to only care about the roster sadly. However, I too share your mindset, and eagerly await the reveal of the Master/Crazy orders mode.
You've gotta be ****ing kidding me LOL, why are people EXPECTING a new character tomorrow?! Even if we somehow get one that'll be free DLC for 3DS and unlocked in Wii U...

Y'all really need to lower your damn expectations, because the same people that expect the most, are the first ones to be pissed the **** off.
This. While I wouldn't put it like this, it would better suit people to have a realistic mindset, over a pessimistic/optimistic one. As there's a chance you'll end up disappointing yourself for something that wasn't promised. At the same time, if you do get something that you wanted, you'll be just as hyped.

I'm trying to take as pessimistic a stance as possible, that way I'll be happy no matter what.

This is going to be the first post-Smash announcement Direct I won't be watching live. There's just no reason for me to stay up late just to hear about modes and stuff, the reason I'm excited for Smash Wii U is because it's a console game, the rest doesn't really matter that much to me. Trailers? I already know that those two characters are in, so whatever. New characters? C'mon guys, the launch roster will be the same on both versions, we've known this for ages.

I'll of course watch it later, but there's just no hype for me with this, modes, stages and overglorified hazards just aren't enough to make me watch this. Of course I'll buy the Wii U version, but that's really only because of the home console experience.

It's obvious that the new DK stage they haven't shown off yet this entire time was meant to debut alongside Dixie Kong in the new trailer that is shown later today.

Believe.

Like say... a board game type mode? That would be pretty unexpected.
I was under the impression it was multiplayer.
The Orders stuff will probably be single player though.

In those cases, you try to assume the worst possible cses:

Cpnsidering there will be a livestream video, nothing says its contents.

Which means it's theorically possible we get a black screen for the whole direct.

There we go, that's the best pesssimism you can do :)

No Trailer was necessary. Brawl hype worked perfectly fine without reveal trailer.
The trailers for Pacman and Shulk where also shown after we already knew they were in the game. It's still nice to have them. We will most likely get a good laugh out of the reveal trailer for Duck Hund and Bowser Jr. And I don't know how this is a bad thing.
Pac-man's trailer yes, but not Shulk's...

Instantly praised as the best Direct in Nintendo history.

Imagine if the 50 things were 50 newcomers

(And none of them are Ridley).

Hey

Hey guise

Guise

What if

Hey guise what if

Ridley is too big to be just a stage hazard, and is actually the major boss of the board game mode (i.e. like Bowser in the earlier mario parties?)

The Livestream will be going on while I'm at school. It's going to be a long wait to get home.

Speaking of Australia, since Australia has started making Directs of their owns, shouldn't this next one feature Tom from Nintendo Australia instead of the Sakurai?
Possibly yes. But who gives us the info doesn't really matter, as long as the info is given out.

I would prefer if Reggie-nold did this direct and not Sakurai. But SSB is Sakurai's baby so I guess he'll be talking to us in a few hours.

I think Sakurai needs to say for certain no Ridley so this "plz plz Ridley" talk can die.

So, sorry if this has been asked a lot already, but... is there a YouTube link for this? They tend to work the best. ^^

I would like this too... as I'm on my Wii U right now and I'd like to be able to watch the Direct live on my Wii U...

Pandora's box opens in 3 hours and 20 mins.
Be careful what you wish for.
In this game:



This person (the guy):



Opened pandora's box and all hell broke loose. Will all hell break loose after this Direct opens pandora's box?
