Nintendo Direct: Watch The Wii U Direct Presentation Live

Posted by Damien McFerran

We'll be watching with you

Today's Nintendo Direct presentation has a special title which should leave no doubt as to what the subject matter is going to be.

Tune in at 2PM GMT / 9AM EST to watch the presentation. We'll be live-blogging events as usual.

Damo: I demand F-Zero GX 2.

13:46

Tom: While VC and a couple of eShop games are my realistic expectations, I'd love Bayonetta 2-style teases of Holiday 2013's big hitters. Mario Kart seems likely this year, and possibly Retro's latest. I don't think Ninty will do that, but I like to dream.

13:42

Ant: someone just said Wind Waker HD, that's optimistic - but would be awesome!

13:38

Ant: wondering what we have in store today, should be a good one I think! Not expecting to many game reveals though - probably a mention of Resident Evil Revelations - hopefully something on what is happening with VC on Wii U. Excited.

13:23

Not long now! What are you expecting to see? Wii U Virtual Console, perhaps?

I'm expecting them to roll out the Wii U Virtual Console, and for it to incorporate GameCube games. That's not jaw dropping though. I'd like to hear about something new and unexpected. A new service or channel would be good. It's a bit sparse at the mo.

While the repurchase price is small, it just seems like an absurd idea. Give existing customers that supported your service on Wii by making them pay even more money to use it sufficiently on Wii U?

15 minutes have passed and what, where are those new "Wii U Games?" I honestly don't give a poo about again the same virtual consoles games from NES and SNES (and now even GBA games are coming to VS but not for 3DS but for Wii U? WTF?)

So far no confirmation of Game Cube titles. I'm glad the upgrade cost is only a dollar for NES titles. I will definitely be getting them as they release. (Good thing I transfered my Wii software library over to Wii-U).

@Chrno-x and @MultiMariosonic I know, seriously? Yeah it's great that they are coming but the GBA is a portable, you'd expect 3DS owners to get first dibs -.-...and if we even do get GBA on 3DS(aside from Ambassador ones), obviously we'll have to repurchase them yet again.

sigh At least the new reveals are making up for it slightly.

Kirby's Epic Yarn is selling for $15. It was too easy and not very well received.

Oh well, at least it's new.

@3DSLUIGI I'm pretty sure they are saving Majora's mask for 3DS.

@FiveDigitLP Yeah, unfortunately. I've been relying on the texts and posts mostly so far, haha. I'll rewatch it once things are over with.

@Chriiis
I'm not saying The Legend Of Zelda: The Wind Waker doesn't look good recreated on Wii U. It's just that I question the decision as to why they chose Wind Waker. IMO, A Link To The Past or something along the lines of Link's Awakening would have been a better surprise.

Xenoblade sequel... It looks amazing... My jaw literally dropped...
Plus, Mario Kart, 3D Mario, Smash bros, Yoshi Land, Wind Waker HD, Wonderful 101, Bayonetta 2, Fire Emblem crossover.

This is going to be Nintendo's best E3 of all time. I mean it. This is perfect.

XCWarrior

#213

XCWarrior said:

OK, so I was basically right. They showed us stuff to help Wii U in the long term, but nothing to shore up the next two months. Showed a Mario sports-ish title. Showed Bayonetta 2 and Pikmin 3 with no release date.

Only surprise was awesome, the new Monolith Soft game. Would be nice to have this year, but don't see it.

So basically, we got Virtual Console tryouts to hold us over until March. But March we get lots of stuff. So Jan and Feb, people clean out your backlogs or go buy games you missed!

I rate this Nintendo Direct 6/10 - because we won't be getting that stuff for awhile. Though what in the world will they bother showing at E3?

Rebuying virtual console games for play on gamepad at a reduced price is the best thing that realistically could've happened. I'd rather just be able to play my old games on it at no cost, but $1 is not that bad of a deal to upgrade. It's better than paying full price again which I wouldn't have done.

They didn't confirm it was a new mario party, just a new party game in the style of 'wii party' - but here's hoping!

I was a bit unimpressed (wow... a new Mario & Mario Kart game? You don't say), but Wind Waker HD and a new epic MonolithSoft RPG rocked my socks off.

And I guess the Miiverse improvements are welcome too.

so, now the wait for E3 begins~
titles i'm excited for:
that new 3D mario game
mario kart
the next Zelda
super smash bros
that new yoshi game

but most of all, I'm excited to see the new Zelda games at E3~ >o<

rjejr said:

@3DSLugi - They're redoing Windwaker probably b/c it' c ell shaded graphics are easy to update to HD, and as Iwata said - not a lot of people played it on Gamecube so it will be new to them. Makes sense to me.

Best Nintendo Direct in...in fact, pretty much best Nintendo Direct ever!

I said from day one that Kirby's Epic Yarn, while a brilliant game in it's own right, would have made more sense as a Yoshi game (Yoshi's Epic Yarn), for multiple good reasons, and I am soooo happy to see Nintendo is actually making a Yoshi themed version of the game. As long as they don't change it too dramatically i.e, break it, and just add in all the Yoshi game specific aspects that would work so well in this type of game, I genuinely believe they could have one of thee very best platformers ever on their hands. Honestly. I am soooo excited for this game.

A little bit more info on Pikmin 3.

Great to hear there will be a playable, playable, versions of both the new Wii U Mario 3D and Mario Kart games at E3 too.

The HD update of Windwaker is a great little touch since I always thought that all that game really needed to truly shine would be smooth anti-aliased HD graphics and improved real-time dynamic lighting and shadows and then it would just about be perfect graphically. The rest of the game is solid as is and if they fix a few little fetch quests and make sailing a bit less empty at times then this will be a great addition to the Wii U's library.

A couple of casual games, that didn't take up too much time and indeed actually looked kinda interesting in some ways; such as the two player baseball game using only the Wii U GamePad.

A nice and indeed unexpected cross-over game, in Shin Megami Tensei + Fire Emblem.

That HD Xenoblade looking game is also going to be very popular among a large group of gamers and it was a great announcement to finish the presentation on.

This is how to do it right, Nintendo. No silly gimmicks, a nice lineup of high quality games, some of them even brand new and unknown to us hardcore gaming geeks. Some nice takes and updates on previous great games. Good details about how you are slowly but surely working on fixing all the little issues many gamers have expressed with the system and just improving the experience overall in general. No "Americanized" cheesiness and patronizing to the presentation either, or really cringe worthy demos of corporate goons trying to demonstrate their games in badly staged demos and just looking like tools. In fact, it was all good stuff.

Yes, Nintendo, you've finally done it in such a way that even I am happy with!

I can only assume that at E3, Nintendo will also have to show us a little bit of the new Zelda Wii-U game, at least some images or character models in a video package. This E3 will be a huge one for Sony and Microsoft, so I wouldn't be suprised if Nintendo is holding their cards close to their chest and that the new Zelda game is further ahead in development than they let on.

So much for this year being a good E3. They are announcing all the AAA titles now.

And another thing: WIND WAKER WII U?!?!?!?!?!? WHY!?!?!?!?!?!?! this means that Gamecube on Wii U VC might not happen.....

This was a great Nintendo Direct, but it was too great. It makes me less exited for this year's E3...

fluggy said:

Yawn. Yoshis epic yarn appeals to me cause loved playing Kirby with my niece. Zelda Windwaker 'remake'??? ....pointless!!! In fact, the hd version seems to have lost all the character of the original. Fed up with remakes. Want to see a realistic 'new' Zelda like the hd teaser where Link fought the giant spider. Xenoblade looked good until those numbers continually flashed over screen. Hate stupid hit point games. Wish we could go back to plain old enemy energy bars. 101 looks like weird, quirky japanese nonsense. Still, Mario kart and a galaxy type game (where was the preview reel for these 2) might be enough to hang on for. . . il probably be blowing the dust off my wii u ..... 2 years from now.

I guess for E3, we'll likely have Retro's project to look forward to. And while we know Mario/Mario Kart/SSBU will be shown, it'll still be nice.

@3DSLUIGI That Wind Waker comment was in general, makes me think we'll get HD GC at full price rather than GC VC now.

As for the Majora's Mask thing, I was saying I remember hearing possible plans of that on the 3DS a while back, but probably after an original 3DS Zelda title.

GBA VC was still disappointing, why have it on the Wii U when we haven't even gotten it on the 3DS yet(aside from ambassadors), especially seeing as it was a portable system? With no joint VC, if we even do get GBA on 3DS, we'll obviously have to pay for them separately and again.

That was bloody epic,so many surprises there.
Nintendo really does need to pull out the big guns this year,with the announcement of the new next gen consoles,but if they continue like this they'll be fine.

A Xenoblade sequel,and a Wind Waker remake,is enough to make me happy for a long while.

So, in order to play a virtual console game from SNES or NES if you already bought it on Wii and want to play it on the gamepad then you have to pay to transfer it to the Wii U?!!! Forgive me if I misunderstood.

Chriiis

#263

@tealovertoma I'd love to be able to play on both though, but as of now that won't be possible without paying double the $$, haha. It's also bizarre because we have barely been getting any Gameboy (Color) releases in the VC.

Lots of good things here!!!:
Updates for faster load times, improved Miiverse functions, Wii U VC, GBA on VC, Yoshi's Epic Yarn, 3D Mario, Mario Kart U, Smash Bros at E3, HD Wind Waker, new Zelda, Xenoblade sequel

What I don't like:
paying for Wii VC with Wii U functions (I know I'll end up paying it but I'm not happy about it), new Wii Party game (just give us the ultimate Mario Party 10 I've been wanting for years!), no chance of a HD Majora's Mask now, and waiting for all this awesome stuff!

For those wondering what they'll show at E3, that is no longer the big show. I expect Microsoft and Sony to make first reveals on next console NOT at E3. They all will flesh things out for the media at E3, but internet news stuff like this is going to be how all 3 announce stuff in 2013. Just be ready for it. E3 will be for the mainstream gamer that doesn't follow this stuff daily.

@Mario_Party_Fan_999
Obviously I'd have been happier to download my VC games for free but I wasn't expecting that so I'm happy with the minimal cost. Honestly I don't think we could have realistically expected any better than that especially if each game truly does have to be recoded.

Nareva

Nareva said:

Some great reveals there. Looking forward to the rest of the year.

Regarding the GBA VC: putting this on Wii U is an interesting idea. The gamepad obviously makes gamboy games a no-brainer on the system. I think this also shows where Nintendo might be heading in their next hardware iteration. As they hinted previously, some kind of hybrid portable/home console. Should be interesting to see what they come up with.

Quite disappointing. I'll have to pay again for the very same virtual console games I already purchased on the Wii U, about 20% for each game and if my console will eventually break I'll have to repurchase them again at full price on a new console. That's not really intriguing

The VC Solution is a bit meh, having to pay for games again, just to play them on the gamepag alone is a bit...well, meh.
Wind waker is one of my least favorite Zelda titles, wich doesnt mean that its a bad game at all, say, if every other zelda is a 10/10, WW is an 8 in my book ;) But still very very awesome.
And HOLY Macarony Batman ! A (more or less) Xenoblade sequel O.o If its size will be compareable to its predecessor, its a bigger RPG bite than i can chew :D
I need to finish Xenoblade as fast as possible :P
