Nintendo Direct 1/14/15 (6AM PST / 9AM EST)

It does not. Picture the scenario about the boss splicing things together and then the guy seemingly has seen all the content and can describe every bit. Plus Metroid by IntSys?

WTF? lol Get real.

Yeah, I mean, in the off-chance the hiearchy described is true, if he could see the boss editing, then at best he'd see some stray frames/short clips/file names.

Jason Schreier mentioned it too:

@jasonschreier
Nintendo Direct at 9am Wednesday, then they've got a media event in San Francisco right afterwards... this one's gonna be good
It's just to try the N3DS most likely.
Plus a surprise game that will be announced.

The part of me that likes watching the world burn would want then to announce Retro is working on a HD version of Donkey Kong Returns.

Does that part of you somehow override the part of you that wants to play new games? If so, you might have the wrong hobby...
 
That's exactly what I was thinking : /. Hope the NA/Europe Directs don't spend too much time talking about the N3DS like if it was something we have never seen before. A 5 minute segment to announce release dates, prices, a cool trailer showing games that will only work on the N3DS and move on.

15-to-20-minute-long New 3DS introduction is actually the thing I fear the most at this ND. I never feared anything on Directs before that much.

And if they really do just slot in videos put together by other groups, I imagine much of the editing would be the transitions between those...can't imagine you could glean much info from that stuff.

Metroid Pinball 2 here we go

I mean, I'd buy it.
Oh man, that's why we got Pokemon Pinball R/S and Mario Pinball Land on the Virtual Console a few weeks back; to build up to Nintendo's other Pinball franchise, barring Pinball and Revenge of the Gator!

Probably already mentioned, but the email I got from Nintendo said that they're just going to show some games that will release this spring. So expect some MM3D wooly world and Kirby info, but no new announcements.

An announcement for a new 2.5 Metroid game, huh? Coming out in January, you say? Intelligent Systems has development duties?

How much do you guys wanna bet Nintendo reveals the New 3DS like a surprising new object that will blow out minds as if it did not already exist and was released in other countries for months? I hope they at lease acknowledge that its been out elsewhere for months and don't waste our time hyping up the thing..

oh they will, they haven't said a thing about the N3ds so they will probably spend a whole big chunk of the direct focusing on it :/

Yeah same here. N3DS might be a big deal but it's non-news at this point, everything we want to know, we know. but on the other hand I don't see how they could fill up the entire 30 minutes with just spring releases + Xeboblade
Virtually non-existant - they promised more info at E3 2015 and broke their rule only several months later, only to save the day at TGA. Which was, speaking of it, not more than a month and a half ago.
I don't know, Zelda Wii U might be teased. Never rule out anything from Nintendo.


Also I wanted to reply to both posts and then I realized you were the same poster. I'm subconsciously stalking you 0_0.

Damn now I'm worried they will spend the majority of the Direct talking about it, :/ Hope they won't.

Will we get some info on Starfox?

This is a must. Can't believe it's been 7 months since it was announced and we have seen ZERO footage of it and it's supposed to release before Zelda U...
 
I mean, I'd buy it.

And in the Direct, Iwata, Miyamoto and Aonuma declare that the Pinball series is the one and only canon. All other Nintendo games ever made are spin-offs.

I dont think they would tease new releases in an email

But yeah Spring 2015 games will definitely be the focus alongside the New 3DS

As for any surprises? Who the hell knows
