Lack of hype? Has anyone counted the amount of SSBB threads on Vgchartz?!
That's what I call hype.
I am surprised at the low level of hype for Mario Kart though, that'll be the best Nintendo game this gen unless a super fantastic Zelda arrives! 
As far as media goes; it seems to me that the media outlets and many major gaming sites have grown a bit stale and aren't hyped about anything lately.
