TalkBack / Re: Nintendo Direct Announced For Tomorrow

« on: March 31, 2015, 02:08:15 PM »

As for the Direct itself, with it coming on the heels of the Zelda delay I think we're going to get teased with some Zelda & Star Fox footage as some form of damage control. The main focuses of the Direct will probably be Splatoon and Yoshi's Wooly World, since both of them should be out soon. I can't imagine we'll see new game announcements this close to the E3 Direct, though.

Didn't Nintendo say that Zelda won't be at E3?  If they could show Zelda footage at a Direct why couldn't they have a new trailer at E3?  I figure we won't see anything of Zelda for a while now.

Note the wording: Zelda won't be "at" E3. That doesn't mean they can't throw out some footage of it.

The exact wording of Aonuma's message was "we've decided to not [/size]show[/size] the game at this year's E3." If they went out of their way to specify that, it seems unlikely that there'll be any footage, unfortunately.

Question for Neal (or anybody else who has played both versions). I can buy a new sealed copy of the Wii version for $80, or get the New 3DS version for $45. Is the difference big enough that I should just bite the bullet and go for the Wii version?
