Sounds like FF was the biggest one for the stupidest reasons.

I wonder if anyone has brought up DMC yet?

And I suppose the internet was too young in 2001 for the Wind Waker reveal to have been really enormous.

Oh yeah, the Xbone reveal is a reeeaaally good one.

There was a big ongoing meltdown in brazil foruns, 100% on the internet. unlike many events people are listing here, that happened before internet was popular.

I could predict your posts before I even entered, seriously Bayonetta? That was a drop in the ocean compared to FF13. You're making it seem like all those pro Nintendo 'megaton's were huge when they're not.

kinda easy to predict things after they happened. talk to my hand.
