I'm sure I don't have to speak for Neon, but let's keep it rumor and leak focused here, eh? I feel some stuff said here is better suited over in the Miiverse thread.
I really hope these silly leaks are laid to rest. They've amassed too big a following for me to understand. It's like this Justin Bieber crap lately, and I'm Canadian, so i get to hear about our beloved star oh so much more -.-
But anyways, are we really expecting a direct still? I still think eventually this week we'll get one or early next week. One has to remember that Nintendo is preoccupied with other things as of late, I'm sure you've seen the headlines.
