Oh man, the amount of fake leaks that are gonna pop up between today and tomorrow.

It's gonna be hilarious as hell.

 

[The Stoopid Unikorn]

Get ready for 2 days filled with "*Character* is going to be revealed guys, I promise!"

Well, I wouldn't mind Wolf, to be honest.

Finally, we can laugh at bad leaks again

I really missed those days

 

[Chrono.]

So how long till people start buying that recent fake leak that was "on 6th but might get delayed to the 12th"?

 

[Frostwraith]

Wait, wasn't there a rumor that claimed that a Nintendo Direct would air on November 12th?

This date is suddenly familiar. Getting a déjà vu here.

 

[SlickWylde]

Wow... just this morning I was thinking "I'll stop going on the nintenzone thread for a while, at least until a direct is announced and we have something to hype about." So, you're welcome guys. That was me.

 

[Baskerville]

Apparently on the Direct website there won't be any updates on the NX or mobile

Do you think there will be a character announcement.

Satoru Shibata will be presenting the European Nintendo Direct.

What are the details about it?

 

[IceBreakerXY]

Dude, that's a 791 base stat

Tell me the truth, was it you that created Mega Rayquaza?

 

[Kenith]

AZ IS ALWAYS RELEVANT.

I am so ****ing hyped right now! There better be a new character T-T

 

[IceBreakerXY]

Dude, that's a 791 base stat

Tell me the truth, was it you that created Mega Rayquaza?

Yes.Yes it was me all along

But in all honestly all I want is a special attack, special denfense and a very small health boost
101/83/90/130/130/80. Just a little weaker than mega gardevoir

 

[tsvlink25]

tsvlink25 You've done us proud.

NoE also confirmed the Direct for the same day - https://mobile.twitter.com/NintendoEurope/status/664095188789403648

Just to step away from ERHMAGERD MA DIRECT HYPE, seeing that the Nintendo Badge Arcade will be out in Europe on Friday is kinda exciting.

...I just wish NoAUS would let us know if we get it at the same time as the EUs. ._.

Thanks c: I got super excited as soon as I saw it, and wanted to share it here.
that being said, I hope the US gets the badge center too.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Wolf plz. Maybe a cool newcomer, but preferably Wolf

 

[Strofirko]

Remember those april fools leak,surprising uh?

 

[Chrono.]

What are the details about it?

Chandeelure just posted them

Yeah, this one:

Nintendo...direct. It's...it's actually happening now.

I'M NOW OFFICALLY HYPED! More Paper Jam, Xenoblade Chronicles X, Twilight Princess HD, Star Fox, SMASH BROS, virtual console, I'm so excited!

 

[Bedoop]

DIRECT HYPE!!!!!!!!
I had such a strange feeling that one would be announced today!
LET"S GO SMASH BROS NEWCOMER TRAILER!!
Shovel Knight Digs in?

 

[KenboCalrissian]

Check out @NintendoAmerica's Tweet: https://twitter.com/NintendoAmerica/status/664095209534435328?s=09

ITS HAPPENING

Someone in here called it.

Who called the 11/12 date? I will gladly gift that person Premium if they don't have it already.

 

[Chandeelure]

Mega Quagsire:

Has more Defense, a little more of Special Defense and it's a Special Attacker now like Mega Pidgeot.

Ability: Sap Sipper

I think it will be a little broken with Recovery/Rest and Amnesia, but who cares :^)

 

[Champ Gold]

So Kenith are you gonna do your usual countdown thing?

 

[SlickWylde]

I bet there won't be a character reveal... Anyone want to take me on again?

 

[Bedoop]

I was having a bad day at School today
But this has flipped everything all on it's head
IT IS GOOD DAY TO BE GIANT MAN

 

[AncientTobacco]

So how long till people start buying that recent fake leak that was "on 6th but might get delayed to the 12th"?

They already are. People can be really gullible sometimes.

Directs are "leaked" for like every day, so one's bound to coincide. Pretty sure there were even several that called November 12.

 

[The Stoopid Unikorn]

Yeah, this one:
http://www.gamespot.com/forums/syst...r-12th-nintendo-direct-leak-rumored-32737714/

It's analysis time!

Spoiler: Text Wall

Smash ballot results, 6 characters 3 available after the direct

There's no way they completed 3 characters in ONE MONTH!

Twilight Princess HD is announced and will release in February as part of the 30th anniversary of Zelda

What's with all the Twilight Princess HD stuff? For all we know, all our speculating could basically lead to not a TP remake, but more stuff on Zelda U.

Pikmin 4 is announced and will release sometime in Spring 2016

It WAS confirmed to be almost done, so that one is likely, fake or not...

New remaster series for 2016 announced for Wii U and 3DS including Super Mario Sunshine HD and F-Zero X 3D

I love how Twilight Princess is not on that list...

Also, the lack of Galaxy makes me sad

Details on Nintendo Account, Miitomo, and My Nintendo

I'm not sure for this one...

Details on Super Mario Maker DLC

That would seriously be a great thing. I could see more items, more game styles, other stuff like that.

Also, it's a huge success, so of course Nintendo would keep making money with DLC....but Nintendo's DLC always offered more than you'd expect from the price, so I'm really excited for that!

Short tribute for Iwata is shown

As if we needed a leak to see this coming

I'm surprised it's not at the top, however.

Direct concludes with Splatoon DLC and new game modes.

Hyrule Warriors Legends trailer and release date of April 22nd

Mario and Luigi: Paper Jam trailer and release date

Fire Emblem Fates trailer and release date of March 25th

Xenoblade Chronicles X trailer and demo after the direct w/pre-load

Star Fox Zero gets a new trailer and releases on February 26th!

Zelda Wii U gets an official title but no gameplay is shown

More Wii eshop titles and virtual console games announced with discounts leading up to Christmas!

Those are so generic/obvious that even if that leak is fake, they'd happen anyway...

Release dates are oddly specific; I'd have expected a "[enter season here] 2016" from them.

However, despite this odd precision of release date, Paper Jam's is not shown, which makes me very doubtful of the leak as a whole.

 

[Kenith]

So Kenith are you gonna do your usual countdown thing?

Well, It's already DAWN OF THE SECOND DAY so it wouldn't be the same...D:

 

[Metal Shop X]

I bet there won't be a character reveal... Anyone want to take me on again?

BUT I WANT TO BELIEVE!
Also, the 4Chan rumor have the exact date. So....Maybe?

 

[DoodleDuck97]

A new Direct.
An Actual Confirmed Direct and not a rumour in two days.
YAHOOO!!!
New Games Hype. New Info Hype! More info on Mario and Sonic Hype.
New and more Amiibo Hype.
LUCAS AMIIBO HYPE!
New DLC for Smash and Mario Maker Hype.
All of this on my day off too.
Oh and just to make this Day even better.
Finding Dory everyone.

Today has been a very good day.

 

[RawstyleEevee]

I dunno why, but I have this feeling one of their secret announcements could be Pokemon Z, afterall this months Coro Coro hasn't leaked yet & they can't tease Mega Zygarde forever

I also hope that we get some localisation news for Fire Emblem Fates & Offcourse some Smash DLC

 

[KenboCalrissian]

All this hype is like...

Spoiler: Undertale spoilers (sorta)

 

[Deleted member]

Yes.Yes it was me all along

But in all honestly all I want is a special attack, special denfense and a very small health boost
101/83/90/130/130/80. Just a little weaker than mega gardevoir

Well, HP can't be boosted by Megas for various reasons

And I know I'm probably being annoying but I think it's easier to just say by how much they would be boosted while keeping a max of 100 total if using specific numbers
Your Mega Meganium got a Base Stat Total of 614
Meganium has 525 BST, so that's a little you could use

Oh yes, I am Mr. No Fun Allowed and I can't stop it

 

[Champ Gold]

I bet there won't be a character reveal... Anyone want to take me on again?

Nope. I'm might side with you.

I can just see that we won't get another character until December/January

Well, It's already DAWN OF THE SECOND DAY so it wouldn't be the same...D:

Ehh. What can you do.

 

[Knuckles the Knuckles]

So there's this going around and people are more pissed about this than Xenoblade and Fatal Frame 5

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2015-11-10-street-fighter-5-sparks-censorship-debate

Xenoblade? I can see why the did it. Fatal Frame? Its conflicting with the story a bit but you can work around it, sosure. But this? I WILL NOT STAND FOR THIS. I NEED MY ASS. GiVE ME BACK MY ASS. THIS IS AN OUTRAGE

 

[powerprotoman]

so we can imedieatly discount the rumor to quote nintendo
"no nx or moblie news"
http://www.nintendo.com/nintendo-direct/11-12-2015/

 

[BluePikmin11]

@UNiKO
To be fair, we haven't had a character reveal in months, during those months, they probably had the time to make about 3 characters.
