Haha. He is known to do that, isn't he? Well, W101 has got to be coming sometime this summer, so I'm expecting it as a part of tomorrow morning's event.
I like Nintendo more than j00!

I know right? How dare they lie to us like that?

They obviously outsourced that to TOSE.

Thanks Iwata!

As for this Direct, I'm not expecting much. Nintendo's going to save their big Wii U announcements for their actual E3 Nintendo Direct, and they already blew their load on the 3DS. All I'm expecting tomorrow is a bunch of talk about minor Wii U games I don't care about, more MegaTen 4 coverage, and if I'm lucky maybe they'll announce a date for Earthbound.  There's really no reason to expect more than that, and as I'm going to be working during the Direct (and in mostly a media blackout till early evening) I don't see a point to getting hyped for it.

probably something like Wonderful 101 that has already been announced along with some new indie games, a pikmin announcement...

Seemed pointless to me. They could of at least hinted towards something good coming for E3.

NeoGAF broke during this Direct.

That only usually happens during E3s.

Too bad my internet was also acting up and i missed most of it...

It was decent but easily could have been apart of E3. I think the sonic bomb was nice but should have been saved for E3. Will pick up the oracle games before June 20th.


I wonder what the deal was to get Sonic Lost World to be a Wii U exclusive after all the rumors pointed it to be on every platform known to man.

Sega saw sales of Sonic Generations and compared them to Sonic Colours.

This direct was a waste of everyone's time and if it suppose to be a glimpse into the Wii U Future.  It has no future.

Yes, it was horrible.

They said this Direct they will solve world peace problems but instead they killed my dog with an iron.

Thanks Iwata!

You'll be singing a different tune come E3. I think most people figured all we would get were the summer dates for W101, Pikmin, Wario and Luigi. Seems fine to me.
Nintendo players and One Piece readers, just better people.

My problem is that Almost all of that we known about since launch and had just been delayed or could have already be played on a Nintendo system.  The sole real exception was Sonic: Lost World but if its not in the Sonic Storybook series I could really care less.

I sure hope not.  Because just think at how bad E3 would need to be to make this an ok Nintendo Direct.

We knew all of the details unveiled in this Direct except for the details that we didn't know.

Thanks Iwata!

So I got my time zone mixed up and thought this was at 10am PST but the front news on NWR was such minor stuff I didn't pick up on the fact that the Direct had already happened.  That's when you know it was lame.

We did get a new game announced but it's Sonic and this isn't the 90's so I don't give a ****.  Even with Nintendo's involvement I pretty much assume that any Sonic game will be a sucky waste of time.  I didn't even make the association of tying it with the Direct because I'm just used to ignoring Sonic games and figured that as long as Sega continued to churn that **** out it would end up on Nintendo consoles.

"Sonic?  Yeah, whatever.  Where's the news from the Direct? ...oh, that was it.  Huh."
