How crap will tommorows Nintendo event be?(Pretty MEH if you're not a weaboo)

[Cerveza mas fina]

27 pages on Gaf already, classic nintendo fan stuff. How big of a wednesdayton will this be?

I predict:
-smash trailer
-mario kart announcement

Nothing new ofc. Also mario kart will look like mario kart wii but in hd. Not even as good as sonic kart.

[Barry Egan]

Oh shit.  I smell a Game Changer.

[Great Rumbler]

-Bayonetta 2 logo

[tiesto]

Miiverse stuff, maaaybe if we're lucky we'll get concrete plans for the WiiU VC. Highly doubt there's gonna be anything as megaton as a Smash trailer.

[archnemesis]

F-Zero reboot with beautiful graphics.

[Cerveza mas fina]

DS games on the eshop? 50 bucks price drop?

[Cerveza mas fina]

F-Zero reboot with beautiful graphics.

Id buy a WiiU fot that prob

[Huff]

Zero new games. Maybe a date or two for some of their already announced stuff

[Tasty]

It's not going to change on of you losers' minds, that's for sure.

I think we might get to see more of Bayo 2 and maybe Monolith's Wii U game. No Smash, too early. Will gladly eat crow if I'm wrong on that one.

[Shaka Khan]

If they announce a firmware update that speeds things up I might buy it this week.

[Steve Youngblood]

Double dip on Tekken and we can play online via the best online game service in the Biz!

Anyway, as for the announcement, I don't know. Personally, I think there'll be something new of moderate excitement, but I'm largely just expecting release dates on the stuff we already know about.

[maxy]

Shenmue 3.

[Don Flamenco]

so crap

[naff]

Something on Monoliths new game would be cool

[maxy]

Who knows,they could have something.

Next week = Nintendo financial report

[Flannel Boy]

20 minutes of Luigi's Mansion.

[TakingBackSunday]

People are expecting something Smash or Mario Kart related?  Lol no.  Those two are E3 only.

Tomorrow will most likely...yeah, luigi's mansion stuff.  Which is cool, I'm excited for that game.

[TakingBackSunday]

oh its only wii u stuff.  45 minutes of lego city or whatever

[MyNameIsMethodis]

Nothing will happen like every Nintendo Direct jfc

[The Sceneman]

Miyamoto needs to be kicked in the nads for being "unhappy" with F-Zero GX and shitcanning the series

[Shaka Khan]

I'll definitely double dip on Tekken, I forgot my copy back home

I will literally shit my pants for a REmake 2.

(Pss: I skipped every RE after 3 )

[The Sceneman]

Baten Kaitos U would be a system seller for me. Shame it isn't happening

[Don Flamenco]

i'd totally pick up REmake 2 once its exclusivity period is up and it gets ported.

[Shaka Khan]

REmake 1 not being ported to other platform is a travesty.

[Don Flamenco]

i think that's because they don't want to put the prerendered backgrounds in HD without touching them up.  When you play it in Dolphin, it looks good but the character model stands out a lot from the background.

[pilonv1]

mario is playing tennis
mario is racing karts
mario is playing board games

[Huff]

It's not going to change on of you losers' minds, that's for sure.

all it would take is one new game to impress me.

not that I'm going to be buying one anytime soon

[Tasty]

20 minutes of Luigi's Mansion.

That would be amazing. LM2 is gonna be surprise GOTY tier yo. Next Level

[Tasty]

Nothing will happen like every Nintendo Direct jfc

Must have imagined the last one ANNOUNCING POKEMON X AND Y.

On the other hand

hnnnng

Coincidence or real attention? We'll find out tomorrow.

[The Sceneman]

Luigis Mansion 1 was pretty awesome. Marioooooooooo

[demi]

Its not us that needs convincing. The General Public needs convincing. Maybe they'll announce the Wii U is launching. For real, this time!

Every game should have a dedicated Mario button.

Lol, general public doesn't give a damn about Nintendo Direct.

[The Sceneman]

Or just a dedicated name calling button. Like in Heavy Rain. Jason? Jaaason. Jason?! JASON. Jaaaason. Jason?

[Tasty]

Hmm Itoi's been tweeting about making "MOTHER platable" again, whatever that means. Port/remake/collection perhaps.

[TakingBackSunday]

that'll never see the light of day in america

[The Sceneman]

Mother collection pls pls pls

[Brehvolution]

Mario Masticates U

[MCD]

just to let you know guys I was always a big Nintendo fan I swear

[Tasty]

@Oscar Wouldn't Mother be a good thing to announce in order to help the J-market? Isn't it a decent franchise over there?

I mean, I imagine a Mother collection in the vein of the Kirby and Mario Wii ones, as barebones as it would be, would be enough to act as a "salve." Certainly it'd be better than nothing.

that'll never see the light of day in america

If Project X Zone and all the Op Rainfall games can, so can Mother.

[bachikarn]

new super mario u2

[Phoenix Dark]

WiiU Gardening

[tiesto]

-Wrecking Crew '13
-MACH RIDER 2
-Retro-developed StarTropics 3
-Mother Anthology
-Super Mario Universe
-New! Legend of Zelda
-Nintendo bought the remnants of Studio Liverpool and are having them make F-Zero U
-Baten Kaitos 3
-Xenoblade 2
-Tales of U
-Monster Hunter 4G
-Dragon Quest XI

  yeah right... it's gonna be Miiverse shit and shit nobody cares about. There's a slight chance we'll see firm announcements about the WiiU's Virtual Console but that's about it, I predict.

[Momo]

Miyamoto needs to be kicked in the nads for being "unhappy" with F-Zero GX and shitcanning the series

.

I dont expect anything that would interest me, current nintendo games usually veer in the opposite direction of what I like.

[Human Snorenado]

Lots of Mario fucking around and Zeruda

Please God don't let Zeruda suck

[Olivia Wilde Homo]

My predictions:

- Talk about how ossom Miiverse is
- Talk about how many people participate online and how many hours logged onto certain dumbass features (530 million hours spent on the Miiverse!)
- Talk about how NSMBU is the fastest selling NSMB game (not sure if that is true)
- A bunch of third party junk that was pinched out and flopped hard

Just as a pointless aside, "Panic-mode Nintendo is the best Nintendo" has become one of my most hated phrases that pops up again and again at GAF, overtaking even "My body is ready."

i've actually got a stainless steel contraption set up over my keyboard which breaks my fingers if i make any attempt to post in a GAF thread containing either of those phrases.

[Trent Dole]

Meh, panic mode just made them release 3D Land and Kart sooner than they would've/before they were really entirely ready. Not something worth celebrating.

F-Zero reboot with beautiful graphics.

Id buy a WiiU fot that prob

Why? there are like five wipeout games on ps3, same thing.

[Damian79]

If by same thing you mean they are both racers that move fast, you are correct.  If you mean by anything else like gameplay for example you are simply wrong.  I cant get into the wipeout games but i love Fzero games.

it's essentially an upside down V8 engine without the housing. you can't take chances on these things, not with wiiU sales being as they are.

[Father_Brain]

The way people use it, you'd think SM3DL, MK7, and MH3G magically appeared out of nowhere the day Nintendo cut 3DS' price.  It's nonsense.  In all likelihood, Nintendo will just have to ride out poor Wii U sales for at least the next couple quarters, with no price drop.

[Tasty]

Actually NSMB2 was even more rushed  and reactionary than SM3DL and MK7 were. Panic mode Nintendo at its worst.

Panic mode Nintendo is nice for when Nintendo is doing something third party/console service wise you don't like, and then seeing them try and fix it. 3DS OS has come a ways since release and I don't doubt they believe it a business priority to get the Wii U's shit in order.

[Cerveza mas fina]

Miyamoto needs to be kicked in the nads for being "unhappy" with F-Zero GX and shitcanning the series

This should happen on stage

[Shaka Khan]

They didn't appear out of nowhere, but there's no question they were rushed to completion. 

I hate memes of any sort that catch on, particularly among gamers, the most insufferable of all human beings, but there is at least some truth to the "panic mode" thing.  Nintendo is at their best when they've got someone's boot on their neck.  Happy Nintendo leads to shit like the back half of the Wii's lifespan, cartridges on the N64, ten years of black and white Game Boy, New Super Mario Bros. 2, and $15 Pokedex apps. 

But that's the thing though, they *were* in development long before the 3DS started showing a weak performance. Nintendo's state of panic seemed to have no bearing on their scope/quality (except an adverse one?), all they did was probably strategize their announcements and release dates better as you suggested.
