Forums - Nintendo - Nintendo Direct announced for tomorrow - Wind Waker HD/3D Mario/Mario Kart/New Monolith game/Yoshi's Epic Yarn and more!

AlphaCielago on 23 January 2013

I'm astonished, simply astonished. I don't know what to say. This N-Direct has been making me think of buying the Wii U when MH3 releases now. My wallet gone. The best announcements were WWHD and Monolith Trailer. I can't wait for Xenogun Chronicles to release and WWHHD looked amazing with those screenshots.
For E3, 3D Mario, SSBU, Mario Kart and probably even more titles. This year will be amazing.

I think when they talk about Zelda multiplayer, they're going to do something similar to Dark Souls/ZombiU/certain roguelikes/their patent application for the Super Guide. Not multiplayer as we know it, but something where different adventures interact with each other in a "cooperative" way.



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

I thought it was going to suck. When they spent 10min on Miiverse I thought it was going to be a snorefest. So glad I was wrong.

-Miiverse stuff was boring and to long imo, but it was expected.
-Was good to finaly get a confirmation about what's going on about the VC. It's launch for April is almost confirmed. Those who are complaining about having to pay to play their VC games they already bought should stop. You don't ''pay to play'' them, you pay for the new features. Nothing stops you from getting into your Wii Channel and play your VC games the same way you have been doing since the WiiU launch and even years before it. Iwata said they had to redevelop them for WiiU, obviously meaning gamepad play, but could this also mean HD? Or would that be to much of development? I doubt it but 1 can dream right?
-The Famicom 30th anniversary is extremely appealing. I'm soooo buying Super Metroid for 30cents. I'll probably buy all 10 games, wich is great since I would have never bought some of those if it was'nt for the price.
-The Wonderfull 101 trailer seemed great. I use the word ''seemed'' cause it became super laggy during the trailer for me, I need to rewatch it. Could'nt help but laugh at the end when they were water sliding :D
-Can't say I was'nt disapointed when Iwata mentioned Bayonetta2 only to say that they can show us any footages yet. I thought he was trolling us lol. But that developer video ended up being a great tease. Rly well done, showing us the perfect amount to keep the hype going. I seriously hope that the PG Iwata ask will get into details on this game, possible since he mentioned he wanted to make a wonderfull101 specific Iwata ask meaning that they talked about other things during their first interview.
- A 3D mario game developed by the EAD responsible for Galaxy and a new MK game was'nt news for me. So up to that point I remained disapointed. Confirmation of these being at E3 atleast gives me the assurance that I won't be disapointed at e3 this year. Same goes for Smash.
-Can't say I really care about that party game. It looked bland imo, I thought it lacked that special Nintendo unique feeling.
-Yoshi's Epic Yarn (is that the confirmed name?) looked gorgeous. I heard good things from Kirby's Epic Yarn, but because I also heard that it was WAY to easy makes me wonder what the difficulty will be for this game? Unlike Kirby tho, I feel Yoshi did'nt get much love in the past 2 gens, so I may pick this up.
-Shin Megami TenseyXFire Emblem is interesting. Can't say I'm super hyped cause I know nothing of the SMT series plus we still dont know what kind of game it will be. Fighting game like MarvelVsCapcom? or more like ProjectXZone or RPGish like that Pokémon Conquest? hard to say. But that game deffinetly have my curiosity.
-If they had my curiosity for that SMT Vs FE game, they deffenetly had my attention (see what I did there?) when they mentioned Zelda. Open world sounds great, multiplayer not so much but I'll wait for more details before judging. The artstyle looked rly good. Alot of ppl will be disapointed that it's not like the Zelda HD experience. As for me, I think it's hard to judge before we see link, but I'm sure it will be fantastic. I only wish they gave us a title so we can stop refering to it as ''Zelda WiiU'' lol.
-Wind Waker HD is a great announcement since I've been hiting my head against a wall for years for not buying WW back when I had a GC. At the time I thought the game looked for babies, I was a 13year old brat, did'nt know any better :( They seemed to have changed the artstyle tho, not sure how I feel about that. But it seems that WW HD and ZeldaU will look awfully similar, unless all the screens were from ZeldaU but that last screen showing Toon Link with that Tetra gave me the impression that atleast that paticular screen was from WW.
-And the icing on the cake. The new Monolith Soft game looks fantastic. Is X the name or a teaser name? Ppl should stop refering to it as Xenoblade 2 since I don't think this game has any conections to Xenoblade. It looked like it should be more called ''Xenogun'' lol since I thought they were using alot of gun (jk, that would be terrible). Will this also be a Mech game? The idea of traveling inside a Mech around a gigantic open world fighting giant monsters is making me drool lol.

Overall I'm more than happy. I was seriously hoping for atleast to hear from either Retro or Monolith's new game :D

My prediction, 3D Mario and MK this fall. SSB 2014, Xeno game and Bayonetta 2 spring 2014.

I think those screenshoots were all from the wind waker remake not "Zelda wiiU"

As always, you spin everything to suit your agenda. Good job. You don't say the same when Sony shows the same games at E3 during three years, or the games leaked weeks before every E3, then it's the best E3 ever and megaton after megaton.

PS: I saw your thread were you say you are grinning like a little girl with the Wind walker remake. Don't be an hypocrite and admit you were wrong, as almost always you are. Not even Patcher is wrong so many times.

Meh. A bit underwheling, except for the monolith game. That looked genuinely interresting.



I LOVE ICELAND!

You are 100% right. I realised that the second time I looked at the video. Must have missread the first time trying to read the subs quickly while still looking at the screens :P

I will say the only disappointment for me during the ND was that users had to buy the VC games again, it doesn't affect me as much because I only own a few VC game, but I can definitely see how this will anger a lot of people. Even if it's just $1 it should be free.

It would have been nice to see footage for Bayonetta 2 and 3D Mario, but I can wait for E3.


The games don't magically work on Wii U. It takes time and work to get to run properly and to integrate stuff like Miiverse. Yeah, it should be free but you can surely understand why its not.


no, it shouldn't, we've already payed for our games.  If they want to raise the price for future downloads they can do that, but we have already payed for our games.  Can you imagine steam or Apple doing this 

I can totally imagine Apple doing this.  They charged $2 for a software update to enable 802.11n for certain Macs where the feature was not available at purchase time.  They said it had to do with accounting requirements for retroactively adding major features to old products.  For the same reason they "had to" charge money for major-version releases of iOS.

I don't know anything about accounting but this $1 fee is so small that it reminds me of that.  Maybe Nintendo has to charge something proportional to the added value in order to make the books balance.  Then again, Apple later figured out a way to make all iOS updates free (I think it had to do with not recognizing all the revenue upfront, but holding back a portion to be counted later).

i'm actually quite interested in one of the more overlooked games that was announced, Yoshi. I get that a lot of people are turned off by the art style, but I see it as fresh and different. I have epic yarn and enjoyed it, so it serves a good purpose by adding diversity to Nintendo's Library.
