[Valwin]

– Fire Emblem is projected to show up around January in the US with
the Japanese Blue Special Edition to go on sale with it.

– Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon will come out in February. At the same
time the Black 3DS XL will also come out and there will be a Black 3DS
XL Dark Moon version with the game bundled in.

– Animal Crossing planned as a Spring/Summer Title between March and May.

– Most of the Nintendo 3DS and 3DS XL colors, including 3DS XL
Purple, will be out in America by the end of 2013.

– A few eShop first party @ 3rd party Wii U titles will be announced
for the launch window and a good mix of first and third party for
spring which ends at the Nintendo E3 show for the rest of 2013.

– No idea if the Pokemon 3DS XL’s are coming, even though NoA wants
them to for Mystery Dungeon that is all up to the Pokemon Company USA
to decide.​

Or, we can just not bother with rumors and wait a few hours only to be disappointed.
Like almost every Direct...

"Here's an unannounced game that somehow you all already knew about! No release date yet, but it's going to be fun!"

Yes, because getting hyped up before Nintendo Directs is always a great idea.

Given that the alternative is that Nintendo waits until E3 or TGS to show ANYTHING to consumers, I am more than happy to have a Nintendo Direct every month or so. It's the Personal Touch That Means So Much.

Yeah because ND hasn't revealed any first hand big titles before, oh wait.....

hmmm... DualPixels seem to be spouting a lot of rumours lately, regarding Durango, Orbis, 3DS+ (really!?), and now today's ND. All their rumours sound more like wishlists than anything credible, but I guess we'll see after today, right?

EDIT: read that 3DS+ stuff it's full of so much fail and reads like some 5 year old's unrealistic letter to santa. It's clear that this site is just spouting BS to try and rope more readers in.

Once in a blue moon? Perhaps, but let's be honest here, that is the exception, not the rule.

It's better to be skeptical and pleasantly surprised than anxious and greatly disappointed. We've seen how people on this forum handle disappointment, after all...

Without doubt me favorite thread on this forum. I swear I could almost taste the angst.

Why post a rumor of something everyone will know the day after?
