Nintendo Direct 11.5.2014

[Kikirini]

I'm hoping for just a little more info on Zelda U, though I know it won't happen. Otherwise, I'll be happy provided they talk about something other than Smash Bros.

 

[KingVamp]

I guess some people are living under a rock in a cave when it comes to the Wii u.

If the 3ds get Galaxy ports/remakes, that doesn't mean the Wii u wouldn't get its full 3d mario.
Galaxy would look awesome in 3d.

I'm sure that at least one new game will be announced. There's no way we are getting a release date for
Zelda U.

 

[Vanth88]

I just wanna see them announce Majoras Mask. Every time they announce a new direct I tell myself this will be the one! it never is

 

[djbubba2002]

Super Mario Galaxy U!!! That would be nice!!!

 

[Joe88]

why is everyone asking for ports?
some new games would be nice...

 

[CathyRina]

why not both?

I still don't understand why people are so excited for a game that's readily available as a Virtual Console title.

 

[Deleted User]

I was hoping this would be almost ready to start by the time I got up. Then I had a nightmare and woke up early.

 

[Chiejina]

I called Nintendo and they said they're releasing a new metroid tomorrow. All speculations can end now.

yeah, with those fancy shnancy N64 Grafics and not on a portable console.

Perhaps Nintendo should just release N64 Virtual Console on the N3DS (perhaps not the 3DS, it's not exactly capable, but who knows? Maybe it'd work) instead of trying to charge people four times for the same game across multiple platforms.

(Not even using a hyperbole here, you can play Majora's Mask on the N64, the Gamecube, the Wii and the Wii U)

Perhaps Nintendo should just release N64 Virtual Console on the N3DS (perhaps not the 3DS, it's not exactly capable, but who knows? Maybe it'd work) instead of trying to charge people five times for the same game across multiple platforms.

I dunno, was the N64 running at 240p or 480p? because if 240p then it would be perfect for N3DS.

The N64 used a variety of resolutions between 256x224 and 640x480, it also depended on whether or not you had an Expansion Pak, so yeah. That being said, it's really no biggy to scale down to the screen, whatever the native resolution might be.

 

[Sakitoshi]

I could care less about Splatoon.

your soul will burn in hell .(not really)

I still don't understand why people are so excited for a game that's readily available as a Virtual Console title.

and you can play it with proper controls on the go??.

I dunno, was the N64 running at 240p or 480p? because if 240p then it would be perfect for N3DS.

most of the N64 library ran at 240p, there are some games that could use the Expansion pak to run at 480i, said games generally had an option to switch between low/normal(240p) or high(480i) resolution. Rayman 2 is the first to come to my mind that did that and now that I think a little better DK64 ran at 480i during the short dancing N64 cube and Rare logo intro before the DK rap.

now, on topic.
We can agree that a Smash Bros announcement will be somewhere in the direct, that's a given.
what I think they will be announcing is the release of the DLC packs of Hyrule Waifus Warriors and Mario Kart 8, probably mentioning what will come in the HW Twilight Princess pack.
after that the typical remainders of what games are coming and the like.
I'm being realist.

but I reeeeeeeaaaally want Majora's Mask on 3DS, I never finished it.

 

[Foxi4]

and you can play it with proper controls on the go??.

It's been played to death on every single Nintendo home console ever since it was released, why would I even want to? And if I did, yeah, I could totally play it on the go with proper controls - gamepads with clips, NVidia Shield, Chinese gaming tablets galore, no shortage of devices for Majora's Mask. I will tip my imaginary elf hat to every other gamer who would much rather have a new properly made third-person Zelda game than a re-release of a decade old one.

50 Minutes left! get hyped!
I hope they show more Xenoblade N3DS and Inazuma Eleven 2 for the Eshop, They will probably show the Duck Hunt Trailer for SSB WiiU too.....

 

[Hyro-Sama]

I know this is going to be a big fat ball of nothing, but I would be tickled pink if we got some info on SMT x Fire Emblem.

well, some games deserve a little facelift and a enhanced re-release is perfect instead of a ducktaped rom+emulator. or you will deny yet another port of DooM for PS4/Xbone?? that is the game that is available on the largest number of devices, I'm even surprised you can't play DooM on a potato yet.

 

[WiiCube_2013]

Metroid Trilogy: HD Edition -- this needs to happen. The Wii release is going for $100-$260 and it's just limiting the market to who gets to play it.

Of course I'd prefer a new Metroid but I'd also welcome an HD remaster of the Trilogy.

Inazuma Eleven 2 on Eshop the same day Inazuma Eleven GO2 Chrono Stone arrives on Europe.
I'll buy it.
But it would be better to have the entire Endou Mamoru Densetsu either as a retail cartridge or an Eshop release.
