Can you please link to the site itself? I'm not used to navigating the foreign language sites.
Here's the UK page. BTW, I can see the "5 days ago" message when searching for Dark Dawn specifically in the Nintendo UK site as well:

EDIT: Also, I updated my avatar for a nicer version of that art. :estatic:

Dude! The next Smash Direct should definitely have Isaac revealed first and also Felix as his echo. Then after Sakurai talks about them, he'll be like, "btw, here's even more Echo Fighters coming in!" That's too good to imagine.

Sorry, just still hyped after the Direct yesterday. I don't see myself cooling down for awhile.

Okay, let's play a little game. We've seen that Dracula and Rathalos are bosses of some sort for some kind of singleplayer (There's a lot of evidence to support this). So my question to you guys - What would Golden Sun's boss be?

Personally, I'd love Dulluhan. No offense to Saturos/Menardi or the Dragons, but the former are a little too small to work as a boss in the sense that the game's asking for, whilst we already have the Rathalos so another Dragon wouldn't really be needed persay.
Dullahan would be really cool. Actually I've always had this cool idea where once in a while Saturos and Menardi appear as bosses in a possible Venus Lighthouse stage and other party members like Garet, Ivan and Mia would be fighting them in the background. They will eventually turn into the fusion dragon and which ever player defeats them will have one of the background party members helping you with a different move. Ivan will stun the other players, Garet will strike with a fiery blast and Mia would heal you.

Ok also.. nintendo germany and nintendo switzerland added golden sun dark dawn to their site last weeks

Dont know what that means for us
I'm actually getting kind of excited right now guys. I know I should keep my expectations low to avoid disappointment but I'm just starting to get more hopeful by the day for Isaac's long awaited inclusion. Like it feels like it's almost the end for the dark era of the Golden Sun series and we're almost at the point of making the come back we have been begging for years

So, there's a lot of potential for more Golden Sun games then? I hope we either get remakes or Golden Sun 4 because I would love renewed interest in the series.

If visiting the updated Dark Dawn site, would Nintendo get to see this? Like many IPs from various countries are visiting it, so people are still interested there?

On my side, I have extra links to the Nintendo website's other pages. I think it's just a coincidence.

By the way I informed the reddit Golden Sun page about this, letting more people know is only a good thing :-)

There are also links for a bunch of other games, including Fire Emblem and ARMS. So the Smash link does not indicate anything specific.

Are there any Smash Bros. promotional sites or social media that link each series or character in Smash Bros. to their own individual sites? I think we had that for Smash 4, no?

If so, could the DD page have been created in anticipation of Isaac, since it's the last game in the series and Golden Sun doesn't have a page for itself?

Yeah, unless Golden Sun is getting real busy with its crossovers, I think the more interesting tidbit is the fact that they just now built a Dark Dawn site. Granted, somebody could've just realized "oh shoot, we never made one for that game", but I'm not sure why they'd bother going through the effort at this point.

Dang! This is such a strange coincidence. Yet, the question remains, "why?"

Man, I feel slow on here. Not used to so many people posting here. I kind of like it though.

This isn't happening for Ultimate but the Smash Wii U/3DS websites linked characters to websites for a related game like Tropical Freeze for Diddy

Are we sure this site didn't exist back in 2010? Because it does feel pretty old school.

Ok. The link is a coincidence couse animal crossind and Mario kart are also there. Besides that , the page is still new and created 5 days ago (the austrian one). So something is still fishy here

<!-- Structure ID 270902, Last Generated "Year: 2018, Month: 08, Day: 04, Hour: 23, Minute: 39, Second: 12" -->

Do you mind telling me which page the element we're supposed to inspect is on? I would like to see this for myself
You can inspect just the page. Just right click in the middle and inspect. But as mentioned before, it is just the smash link in a banner (which i cant find on the page somehow)

Are there any other pages you can find that have been edited recently, or is it just Dark Dawn and newly relevant games? This is big news if the latter, since this could mean the website is in the process of being retooled.

Yeah, it looks pretty old. But from what everyone is saying, it wasn't there but was added (or at least updated) recently, no?

The site did exist but it was taken down, and got replaced by something bland on the nintendo page, just mentioning the game there, nothing serious (and I am not sure how long this existed there either).

By the way the official Lost Age site got also taken down, and we lost the trailer from it, but I had a very lower quality one uploaded on youtube from my old phone I had as a kid, some might have not seen it, so I post the link for anyone to enjoy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fXxt49184wo

If the page did used to exist, is there a way of finding out when exactly it was originally taken down? It would be suspicious if it's been gone for at least a couple years but was suddenly brought back in its original state for no apparent reason.

I can confirm the first part, I went looking for a Golden Sun site before Ultimate was revealed because I assumed that a website for Golden Sun would be needed if Isaac was getting into the game, since website links for the games of characters were included on Smash 4's site. All I found was a generic Nintendo page with very brief information about the games. This looks like something they only recently brought back for some reason.

Good thinking! I am sure people can do this! I hope so at least, but this is the internet, everything leaves a trace behind XD

Thank you! I knew I remember correctly! Since you remember this as well, then there is no doubt to this anymore!

Anyone know if European Nintendo pages just got updated in general any time recently? I can't seem to find a North American version of this Dark Dawn site.

This is the current generic page for Dark Dawn in the US Nintendo website. We should keep an eye out in case it's updated somehow. :laugh:
