Forums - Nintendo - Nintendo planning press event for end of January

Jools Watsham from Renegade Kid has told his fans on Twitter that he has been busy preparing a playable demo of Cult County for a press event which is supposed to take place at the end of the month. Nintendo hasn’t confirmed that it’s holding a press event or a Nintendo Direct for the end of the month, but hopefully we will hear something soon.

We are finalizing a playable demo of our (new?) FPS on 3DS. It’s pretty stellar. Hoping it’ll be part of a press event at the end of Jan. :)

Nintendo Press Event? Interesting.

Maybe. Maybe not. Either way, yes, definitely interesting! :)

I am inclined to believe its another Nintendo direct. But we shall see.

Yeah, I don't see them doing anything else, at least this sudden. But don't they release their financhials in the end on January? Maybe they'll have an masterful direct to make up for our sad hearts when we see the Wii U numbers. :P



Last year they had a Nintendo Direct the 23th of January, so it's likely that this press event will be another Direct.

Let's hope this one is better than the one they had last year (The Wonderful 101, Bayonetta 2, "X", Yoshi's Epic Yarn, the crossover between Shin Megami Tensei and Fire Emblem, etc.). Just by showing new (or first) gameplay footage from those games, will already make it awesome.

A press event? That would be really cool. He is probably talking about the Nintendo Direct though.

He says it's at the end of jan so I expect a similar date as the one from last year.

Personally I hope for Tvii in Europe as well. Can you watch Netflix/hulu just on the gamepad using Tvii or is it TV(ii) only? :P


Of cource, a big new IP would be on time, and a new X trailer would make me dream sweet the night after!



It's probably a Nintendo Direct followed by a press event. I've seen a couple indie devs saying that Nintendo asked for some footage or demo so it's likely that Nintendo is being a bit more indie focused with this event

Yup, there's an investor's meeting at the end of the month. I'm expecting the announcement of a Wii U Pokemon before the end of the financial year. It would certainly explain the wild sales forecasts from both Iwata (9m) and Patcher 6m).

I'm surprised they didn't have a Wii U Pokemon available on launch day or during the launch window tbh, hardware sales would have been insane!!!



a Nintendo direct hopefully sooner than later...

I've always hoped they would make a "3D Mario" for the Pokemon franchise. Imagine playing as the pokemon on a 3D battlefield! Sort of like the anime really.
