    1. hope they will make one day a new advance wars a true castelvania a remake for the great and best turn based rpg ever golden sun and golden sun the lost age why not a captain tsubasa or make inazuma eleven more playball like inazuma eleven strikers for the wii adding more survival horror game like resident evil and make remake for lost in blue fire emblem the sacred stones or make some new chapters of any of those games.
      thanks nintendo for all the hard work to make us happy i and we are forever fun ONLY NINTENDO

      1. Finally, someone who mentions Golden Sun! It is al I wait for since I finished Dark Dawn… And I still haven’t lost hope for Isaac in smash :(… Should I?

            1. I forgot so much about the story and the characters and i played it two years ago on my ds and i havent forgotten a thing from chrono trigger and i played that many years ago.

              It didnt have any impact and the puzzles were fun but in the older golden sun games were better.Still the battles were awesome and 1 aspect i like in the series!

              1. Nintendo Elite Commander Quadraxis

                The soundtrack was as wonderful as ever and so were the villains and Chaos Chimera was decent at best…

                1. That was the ONLY boss I had trouble with in that game… To me the second game had the most hardest boss out of the 3! I remember fighting Triton and fighting that stupid dragon from Gaia Rock! And also fighting Agatio and Karst was pretty hard too but that battle was just toooo epic! And when I saw Issac talking I was like “WHAT SO HE COULD TALK THE WHOLE TIME?!?!?!” The final boss in that game wasn’t too bad though and it was super fun because I had to think really well and make sure I use the right turns! That game was just amazing man

                  1. Ridley, the Angel of Death

                    Isaac & Felix suffered from the Link Syndrome (the main character must never talk.) Same for Matthew. lol

          1. I was disappointed by how short it was and how much unexplained stuff there is… WTF happened to everyone from Lost Age? Where’s Felix? Where’s Sheba? We also never figure out where Sheba exactly came from! (unexplained since the first game) They mentioned Piers a lot in the game but you never see him! We also never know where Nowell (Rief’s sister) went!!! Plus what are the Psynergy Vortexes?!?! We also never see the Tuaparang or know what exactly Dark Adepts are! Also what the fuck was Alex after the whole time?!! And does Issac and Garet ever enter the Sol Sanctum again?!!?

            1. Ridley, the Angel of Death

              So much stuff the next Golden Sun game can explain. As for the last question, you do remember that Sol Sanctum has been destroyed, right? It’s buried underneath what use to be a mountain.

            2. Ridley, the Angel of Death

              Oh & I’m pretty sure Sheba comes from a clan of Wind Adepts that pulled a Skyloft on the world since she did fall from the sky. >.<

      2. The castlevainia I’d like to see re-made is circle of the moon a new advance wars Hell yes and golden sun 4 would be a definite yes as for the new 3ds im on the fence about it

    2. 3 things I want to see-
      Mario Maker-Because I am really hyped for this game and what else is new that they didn’t show off at E3 or TheGameAwards.
      Majoras Mask 3D+New 3DS bundle and release date-It seems like a given that both will go hand in hand. Nintendo would stupid not to allow this to get potential increased New 3DS sales at launch by having a bundle of one of the most requested 3DS releases ever.
      Mario Kart 8 May DLC news-At least talk about a new track or two and a new vehicle or at most, a trailer of said things. However, I don’t see this happening as the DLC has still a bit of time until release. However, that being said, it’s not impossible as it is releasing in Spring and this is what the Direct is about.
      What I don’t expect to see-
      Zelda U and Starfox
      On a side note-
      Mario Maker-Mario 30th Anniversary game.
      E3 2015-Zelda Maker-Zelda 30th Anniversary game???

        1. Yes, but you can watch it at your leisure on Nintendo’s Official Youtube channel. So in the end, the time is only a problem if you can’t avoid the internet at all between the start of the live stream and when you get around to watching it…

          1. I will try resist,i messed up last time watching trailers in other channels on youtube and missed a lot until i saw them from gamexplain.

  1. I just squirted a little, I’m so happy. I’ve been waiting for this. I wonder what will be talked about. All I know about that’s coming in the Spring is Majora’s Mask, MH4U, and probably the 3DS, not sure about 3DS, i think Kirby and possibly Yoshi, i’m not sure.

        1. Ohh I see. Your personality has to go along with your profile picture. Last time it was girls, and now him. I see.

    1. Not happening. 100GB is not needed, unlike PS4 and Xbox One you don’t install every damn game to the system. Unless your going ALL DIGITAL you don’t need more memory, and even if you want more, buy it yourself with an external harddrive. And the Gamepad really only needs a better battery…

      1. I live in Australia. The price of the Wii U is already a joke. A for 100 bucks more, I can buy a PS4 with a 500gb HD. That is better value for money. And from what I understand the gamepad last for 4 hours and needs to be plugged in externally. So yeah, there are improvements that can be made for the gamepad. Plus, a 100gb hard drive is another 100 bucks. See where I’m going with this

        1. The industry hate Australia, but your reasoning is retarded.
          You can barely fit maybe 8 retail games on that PS4 without requiring to remove, or purchasing more storage.
          As for Wii U, you can fit at least 25 retail games on 32gb.
          I have maybe 2 or 3 games with install size higher than 1GB.
          And please, if you are going to bitch about digital downloads, then you must not have trouble acquiring money, since digital is always more expensive than retail.

          1. Really. The wiiu OS takes up how much space ? And just an example. Tropical freeze takes 11gb.

            Regardless. 32gb is an absolute piss poor amount given the console is over priced

        2. If you’re spending a $100 for a 100gb HD down here you’re shopping wrong. Here’s 2tb for just over $100: http://www.amazon.com/Book-USB-Hard-Drive-Backup/dp/B00E3RH5W2/?tag=kotakuamzn-20&ascsubtag=9ddb09c28959febfcc64c2851f0b89bfc5597f4f&rawdata=%5Br%7Chttps%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com.au%2F%5Bt%7Cmod-title%5Bp%7C1616444509%5Ba%7CB00E3RH5W2%5Bau%7C5856732741879800112

          I do agree that the Wii U price in Australia is an absolute joke though. Everywhere in the world has seen a price drop except Aus (standard premium bundle is $419 in JB). Add to that, there is literally only the Mario Kart 8 bundle. I’ve seen at least 4 or 5 different ones for both PS4 & and XBone with 1-2 games for about a $100-$150 more… No wonder the twin consoles dominate down under.

          At the end of the day though, I like Nintendo’s games, so I’m prepared to pay for it. I’ve been having a blast on my Wii U for about a year and a half now, and the GamePad charge lasts me about 5-6 hours. Very rarely have I been stuck with little charge. In saying that, whenever I put the GamePad down it goes back into it’s charging cradle right next my lounge :)

            1. Nintendo Elite Commander Quadraxis

              That’s always true until the inevitable extinction but even when technology advances, intelligent ones always makes the most powerful consoles at minimum costs by tweaking the technology to its fullest potential…

              Something the other 2 should learn…

      1. I have 500 gb on and managed to get it on 70 gb and full wii u 32 gb so total 102.If you want to go digitally its more than enough and I got it for 40 euros.

  2. JOYGASM!!!! Nintendo just give me actual release dates for Splatoon, Mario Maker, Yoshi’s Wooly World, Xenoblade Chronicles X, 3rd wave of Amiibos and the New 3DS as well as a teaser trailer for Star Fox Wii U and I’m good but a few surprises as a bonus are always welcomed

    1. omg, why the fk does it always matter if you get a release date. It won’t make the games come sooner, even yet, it’s worse. Headbutt a frozen pillow. Thanks…

        1. I wouldn’t really recommend doing that. Waiting for reviews is usually the smart thing to do. You don’t want to end up wasting your money.

          1. Ridley, the Angel of Death

            We don’t need others to tell us what we’ll like & what we’ll hate. We already know what we’ll like & what we’ll hate.

                1. Ridley, the Angel of Death

                  Thank you! So again, we don’t need some asshole critic/reviewer telling us what we will & won’t like.

          2. No point waiting for Majoras Mask’s review. We know exactly what we are getting. It is a masterpiece and will remain a masterpiece.

  3. Just hope they show another trailer of Devil’s Third i’m tired of people complaining about the “PS2 graphics” when that was very early footage as a result of them porting over the assets of the last gen versions to have it ready to be presented. The game switched to the Unreal3 Engine during development so it would look a lot better. The developers said the game is pretty finished so we should be getting more info before E3

    1. “The game switched to the Unreal3 Engine during development so it would look a lot better.”
      It actually made the game look worse though. Google is your friend

  4. So by”and included the announcement of The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask 3D, which is scheduled to launch this spring.” Thats this spring as in after Christmas into new year of 2016 right? Oh holy blade now im confused, when does my beloved bundle come out damn it!!!!!

      1. Im talking about only Majora’s Mask. That’s the only thing I care about! I’ve been thinking it comes out around the end of the year, but if its Spring as in not far from now then Huzzah! THATS UBER GOOD!!!

    1. Well actually it’s also said that upcoming Wii U and 3DS games that are due this Spring will also be highlighted

    1. There’s more I’m forgetting I know but I don’t feel like typing it right now… I’m tired :/ Also I’m hoping SUPER MARIO SUNSHINE HD YES PLEASE PLEASE YESSSSSSS THAT WOULD BE SOOO AWESOME

      1. Sorry but Nintendo has said that there aren’t going to be any main series Mario games til there next console. But an HD remake might be possible you never know with Nintendo

  5. Soooo excited! I hope to see MP10, Splatoom, Yoshi:WW, Kirby CC, them addressing amiibo problems, and just possibly Wii u menu themes. A girl can dream right? :D

      1. I’m pretty sure Nintendo knows about amiibo stock problems, it wouldn’t hurt for them to talk about what they plan on doing about it. Even if they just announce the cards that’s fine.

  6. Ridley, the Angel of Death

    I’m hoping for a better release date for Xenoblade Chronicles X, some footage of Star Fox U, Golden Sun 4 being announced (fucking please) for the 3DS (I’ll even gladly take a Wii U release with HD graphics as I’d love to see the old summons in glorious HD), a timeline placement of the new Zelda game would also be nice (if it’s a direct sequel to Skyward Sword, I’ll be drinking the tears of the Skyward Sword haters lol), some info about Metroid for the Wii U & 3DS, and hopefully they’ll address the amiibo shortages & NOT screw us over with fucking cards when most of us want the god damn figurine!

    1. Ridley, the Angel of Death

      Oh & please don’t give us a release date of the Wave 3 amiibo before January 30th. If it’s days before then, I’m fucking screwed when it comes to getting the amiibo of Shulk since Gamestop is most likely greedily only taking preorders so they can pull an Amazon & sell new shipments of Shulk for more than the actual retail price.

      1. Ridley, the Angel of Death

        I think it should also be respected for finally answering certain questions like why is the series called Legend of Zelda if Zelda isn’t even the main character. Or why the Master Sword is even called the Master Sword.

      1. Ridley, the Angel of Death

        Actually, there are some people that hated it for the plot. I saw at least one of them on Miiverse back in 2013.

          1. Yes sir! I was told the same day by a friend who was at the game stop when I did this, that the Game Stop associate that made my purchase told him he received an email saying that their warehouse was no longer taking preorders for it. : o.

            Ok? Weird right? And my paper Web Order Confirmation says ” Pre release Ships 12/31/2015. Questions? Comments? Help?

            1. Nintendo Elite Commander Quadraxis

              Well no date has been set yet but they did say Spring so hopefully we get the release date tomorrow…

  7. I just hope Xenoblade Chronicles X is one of those being released during the spring period. Otherwise I can see it getting drowned out by all the other games coming after it on other platforms, MK8 came out in may so lets hope for the same. It’s too good a game to not do well

        1. But if he fails the exam, does bad in school, and doesn’t get a job how will he have the money to serve the empire?

  8. Maybe we might even hear about GameFreak’s new game tomorrow too along side a formal confirmation of Hoopa alongside it’s event DLC in ORAS (and please, Make it like the event like BW’s Liberty Ticket event) and hopefully Battle Frontier DLC for either free or $5. I would like it free but charging 5 bucks sounds right for that only the ones that want it can purchase it for themselves.

  9. Niiice, looking forward to it :) Looks like I’m gonna have to avoid nintendo news sites for tomorrow’s direct. I love watching the Nintendo Direct in itself instead of receiving bits of news on a site. Streaming is always a pain on any site due to stuttering so I always watch it on the eshop later and avoid spoilers until then.

  10. Predicting… New 3DS Release Date and Pricing, release dates for Majora’s Mask, Yoshi’ Wolly World, Kirby, and Splatoon, something amiibo-related (either Wave 4 announced or talk about the stock issues they’ve been having and their plan to fix that), and something DLC-related (either MK8, HW, or Smash).

  11. Having a damn problems with time zone? shit! just look up for “worldtimebuddy” in your desired search engine or whatever >.>

    P.S this isn’t an advertisement lol

  12. Let’s hope for a release date for new Nintendo 3DS and new Nintendo 3DS XL for North America, Europe, and uk.

  13. If they don’t tell us about future Wii U games we don’t know about then this Nintendo Direct is useless. It would be nice if something never confirmed was confirmed and showed. But it won’t happen. Probably just show the same games for Wii U.

    1. There will be future Wii U games coming up later this year… especially the upcoming E3 event. Especially new gameplay in Star Fox U and The Legend of Zelda U. For now, Nintendo Direct’s focus is on SPRING 2015.
