So you believe they're never gonna have a Nintendo Direct again?

I didn't say that. I just said that their mostly worthless which is my opinion. 



Fixed! Now let's get on topic plz!

I wasn't expecting one this month but in January there will most likely be one, a big juicy one!

Considering the announcements they make during the Directs are picked up and reported about on pretty much every big gaming website, I'd call them far from worthless. They reach pretty much every "hardcore" gamer because of that. Of course casuals don't watch them, but to be honest, I've never seen any casuals watching E3 either, so I guess E3 is worthless as well.

I doubt they are worthless. I'm pretty sure the sales of the likes of Fire Emblem were boosted by ND. Why not just have them? Afaik they have rought a million viewers every time. Pretty much free commercial.

Are you trying to say that nintendo fans buy every Nintendo game? ND have sold me on plenty of games over the past year, a few larger ones (MH, Animal Crossing), and plenty of smaller e-shop titles. And really, how much can it cost them to make these shows?

@Bold You have me wrong on that part.

I don't think the point of these directs are to make you buy games per se. It's just meant to inform the lighter nintendo fans.

Directs don't reach people who aren't Nintendo fans which is somewhat retarded.


Alright, since you kids can't help but bring up pointless topics unrelated to the OP, I guess I have no choice but to go with it. :L

#1. How do you know that?
#2. Even if true (it's not), so what?
#3. How are they supposed to go about about announcing their stuff that doesn't involve the internet?

And your point being? If the NDs sell people on games, and they are cheap to make, why is it worthless?

pokemon Z or X2/Y2 will be completely different from X/Y! Its heavily hinted in the game you'll get to go to another region (most likely east of Kalos) as implied in the game with several hints! Also i bet at least 10 new mega's will be announced for the game. The only Q is if Z or R/S remakes come out first? Either or Pokemon wont come intill  2015 Spring/Summer
