I'm just afraid 90% of the direct will just be stuff we already know.


Every Direct that focuses on 1 Game has a ton of new info in them. You can cherry pick XCX but the thing was it was all new for Non japanese viewers :p



Mario Kart 8 direct mostly had obvious no brainer stuff (time trials, online), disappointing reveals (Battle mode, PGP), and blatant lies (outside drift = inside drift).

Great. This game needs every push it can get to become a success, it deserves it!



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

That was the only bad direct and we didn't know about it until Nintendo posted the footage on their youtube channel lol. It wasn't even streamed.



So excited for this game!

Are you saying they can't ever have a bad direct again?

This is going to be inkredible! And I haven't found a WiiU to play it yet (that and SMT x FE, that looked amazing)! It's driving me nuts!

No, I'm saying that just because MK8 direct was bad doesn't mean this one will be.

Splatoon is a new IP and has much more to prove.

So what you're saying is irrelevant to the discussion you butted into then, as no one said the MK8 direct means Splatoon's will be bad.



3 hours to go!
