SURPRISE! Paper Mario for Wii U revealed! Coming this year. (2)

(1) would make my day, but seems a bit iffy (everything else is i think dead on), and (2), while possible, seems unlikely for 2015. i mean, intelligent systems does paper mario; they've been working up until the end of last year on code name s.t.e.a.m., which they're probably finishing up (not sure when it goes gold). that gives them a very narrow window of time to turn out a ttyd-worthy paper mario title... i see it as a 2016 title, and anyway i think wii u is flush with 2015 titles as it is, at least one retail release per month if all goes well, with some surprises thrown in. 2016 looks to be good too, if a little thin on releases as of now, with possibly a metroid and f-zero title as well as the rumored animal crossing u...

Yeah, the ones you bolded are just wishful thnking on my part. :P Paper Mario is far more likely to come out next year, considering Intelligent Systems is working on STEAM and SMTxFE (hm, maybe we'll see that tomorrow?). And Wii U is definitely packed with titles this year, but I can't shake the feeling that we'll have a surprise coming our way for this year. Whether it be Paper Mario or a smaller scale project, I have no clue, but I'm sure there will be something.

New 3DS date for Europe and US
Monster Hunter date for Europe and US
Majora's Mask date worldwide
Xenoblade Chronicles 3D date
Yoshi's Wooly World date worldwide
Kirby-date for Europe
Either Splatoon or Mario Maker date
Codename STEAM date for Europe(we already got US)
something new announced and confirmation of another remaster



*Blah blah blah insert things already said 50 times over here*

But seriously, we're guaranteed to see for Wii U Kirby, Mario Party, XCX, Smash Bros., Mario Maker, Yoshi, n Splatoon, and for 3DS Majora's Mask, Xenoblade, Codename Steam, New 3DS. I'm not expecting anymore than this to prevent disappointment, but I still can't help but hope for more, namely some real footage of SMTxFE, Zelda, n Starfox, MK8 DLC info, and of course some newly announced games.

No more Mario games this year is already confirmed, dude.

And yet Mario Maker and Mario Party 10 are coming out. I'm fairly certain he just meant mainline platforming games.

Regardless, I don't really think it would be for this year anyways. Next year is far more likely.

Those games were announced before he said that. He clearly meant no more Mario games at all aside from ones already announced.

Still hoping for Mario Strikers though.

Ah, well then yeah, I think it could be revealed but slated for next year.

That thing you want the most that you already know is unrealistic but you expect it anyway so you can be disappointed



The new Ace Attorney game will make an appearance, at least on the Japanese stream. Is there a Japanese stream?
