Nintendo Direct 4/1 3PM PT

"We're allowing all Let's Plays to be fully monetized by all YouTubers!"

lol jk april fools gaiz
 
...I'll believe it when I see it. Which won't be until April 2nd, because I am not staying up until 11pm.

New Metroid game, please! Anything will do, as long as it's absolutely nothing like Other M. That said, the Pokemon version for this year hasn't been announced either and, with Zelda Wii U out of the running, Xenoblade Chronicles X is carrying all my hopes for the console this year. That needs a release date, badly.
 
That is 6pm my time, so I'll be able to catch it. I've been watching the rumour leaks about this direct, the one from 4chan, another by that German employee, and then the french leak that was like the 4chan one. ALL of them spoke of April 1st in their dates and this seems to confirm something.

My question is, 'What if Nintendo is on purposely posting leaks to get people talking? Anything is possible, or its just real leakers going on their way from time to time?' Still, I'll try to view it. Page is bookmarked and everything.

Spoiler:
 
If the leak about the amiibo and their origin game is true then...well think of Pikachu's first game...I assume it'll be Red version as technically Green(jp)/Blue (elsewhere) are version number 2, plus it'll avoid Blue vs. Green arguements...
 
if this turns out to be true...happy birthday to me. i have this and a capcom livestream to watch as well. all the video games, man. i'm hyped. <3
 
I posted one of the leaks on GBAtemp, and if the leak is legit, then damn this will be a good ND.

Partial leak details:
Spoiler:
Confirmed fake.

Rhythm Heaven 3DS western release reveal let's go. And F-Zero Wii U of course.
 
half life 3, shenmue 3, a new f-zero game and 7th gen pokemon will all be shown as wii u / 3ds exclusives with gameplay footage only to be revealed as fake footage at the end as a cruel april fools' joke
 
Updated first post with the times of airing for multiple time zones, for once I'll be able to see it live so that's cool.
Personally I'm hoping for something on the 3ds, hopefully by the end of the year.
Maybe Fire Emblem: If, with how well awakening did they might prioritize the localization more, at least some more gameplay shown off, I want to know if they fixed the problems with awakening.
Maybe finally an announcement for the localization of Digimon World Re:Digitize Decode, please now is a good time with all the hype building for the new season, learn how to market this franchise already bamco.
 
What I'd like to see:

-More Fire Emblem If info
-More Shin Megami Tensei x Fire Emblem info
-Dragon Quest VII localization announcement
-Digimon World Re:Digitize localization announcement
-Obligatory new Pokemon game(s) because it's about time for some sort of announcement

What will probably happen instead:
-None of the above
-Yokai Watch
-Splatoon
-Splatoon
-Splatoon
-DLC
-More DLC
-Xenoblade
-INDIE GAMES!!!11!1

Keeping my expectations low like I usually do for these.

There's still that 4chan leak the day before the fake German leak was released.

Don't suspect F-Zero, because Miyamoto already confirmed that they're still waiting for a new controller scheme that would fit the series.

Well they said they are giving us updates on previously announced games so the new FE may get some spotlight.

I don't expect a new Pokémon game announcement yet. April will mark 5 months since ORAS came out and even ORAS was only announced 7 months after XY came out. I don't expect an announcement until E3, if we are getting a new main game this year.

@ Pinkie How long ago did Miyamoto say that? Maybe they are nearly done with a new controller and will release a new F-Zero at the same time it'll be available (likely Holiday season).

He mentioned it when guest starring in one of Smosh's videos. Also, they don't make new controllers for a current gen console, only next gen, which is the NX system they mentioned not too long ago.

Ah is that so? We aren't 100 sure what the NX is though, some people online have suggested it being the 3DS' successor...but since the N3DS came out... well the best bet is that it's a Home Console.
