After the divisive times of Bakugan and the partner mini, general sentiment had soured, then from the most unlikely of places life sprang anew.
Pikmin 3 Super Turbo Championship Edition was finally revealed and dated via the medium of the Twitter drop.
The briefly sparked conversation died down and silence fell once again. Though before long rumblings arose, hype grew and a new and powerful meme was born. Two behemoths of the gaming industry performed a most auspicious Fusion Dance and thus created our Lord and Saviour Dill Spowser. Within a week of his genesis we were blessed with a bountiful harvest.

The appetiser has been served, the main course is on its way. Our time is nigh.


Thanks to MondoMega for the banners and thanks to all the previous OT makers for the content I've shamelessly copy and pasted. Many thanks to Cap for coming up with the thread's subtitle as well.

Because you lot can't be trusted some guidelines need to be laid down before we can move forward. This thread serves as a social space quarantine zone for Nintendo fans (and non-Nintendo fans alike) to discuss Nintendo Directs and everything that surrounds them. It has quickly grown into a sort of community with all the potential problems, and benefits, that entails. As such I'd ask that you all be as friendly as possible both to each other and the many insiders and industry members who interact with the thread. No bad vibes, ya hear?

And no harassing insiders/other industry-connected individuals (or anyone else for that matter). Doing so can only make life worse for everyone. So don't do it.

Some new additions
  1. As per the request of certain members, please do not repost screen grabs of hints or post them offsite, just out of basic courtesy.
  2. Please use the hide tag if you must draw attention to specific industry folks/insiders and their hints in your posts.
    • This is the tag - just remove the spaces: [HIDE ] [ /HIDE]
  3. Report instead of replying to severe infractions. It keeps the thread civil and mods will deal with the honest mistakes fairly.
    • Our role here isn't to police other users, but to ensure civility and honest discussions.

Also please do not post fake Direct announcements. This can be a bannable offense even if meant as a 'joke'.

As is customary, here are the sacred texts upon which this thread is based.

Firstly there is the official permission granted to us by Nibel that establishes this thread's purpose:

GUIDELINES

Because you lot can't be trusted some guidelines need to be laid down before we can move forward. This thread serves as a quarantine zone social space for Nintendo fans (and non-Nintendo fans alike!) to discuss Nintendo Directs and everything that surrounds them. It has quickly grown into a sort of community with all the potential problems, and benefits, that entails. As such I'd ask that you all be as friendly as possible both to each other and the many insiders and industry members who interact with the thread. No bad vibes, ya hear?

And no harassing insiders/other industry-connected individuals (or anyone else for that matter). Doing so can only make life worse for everyone. So don't do it.

    • Our role here isn't to police other users, but to ensure civility and honest discussions.

Also please do not post fake Direct announcements. This can be a bannable offense even if meant as a 'joke'.

As is customary I shall now post the sacred texts that this thread is based on.

Firstly there is the official permission granted to us by Nibel that establishes this thread's purpose:

One point I'd like to address: while there will be ultimately some kind of overlap between 1st party discussions and Direct discussions, I imagine the Direct thread would be more focused on speculation, possible leaks and rumors than this one. It would basically be a thread to contain "all the madness" in one place to keep this thread more level-headed and on-topic.

We've discussed to have a dedicated thread after Moon's suggestion yesterday and came to the conclusion that this might work for the best going forward. So: if anybody is interested to make that thread, they are officially allowed to do so.

Only thing I'd like to ask for is that the OP keeps the opening post updated and tries to keep up with the discussion/speculation.


Then we have the official founding charter made by the first OP, one Kevin360:

The purpose of this thread:

To better contain the madness of ResetERA's Nintendo Direct speculation, and keep it relatively separate from the Nintendo First-Party thread.

As a general rule, let's try to avoid too much "reset the clock" type posts, until of course, we have a really good reason to think it's time to actually be resetting the clock. Madness must have some modicum of reasoning, you know?

ALSO: DO NOT MESSAGE/HARASS AND TAG 'INSIDERS' (this should go without saying, but they've alluded these things crossing the line)


And finally some more tips on how to deal with insiders from Furtive Pygmy:

1) Don't blindly trust in anything insiders say. Take it as information of yet to be confirmed validity and a basis for further speculation, nothing more.
2) If it doesn't pan out, deal with it. It doesn't affect you in any way, either way.
3) If it does pan out, great. It's not like that means they should be put on a pedestal.
4) Don't insult or harass them. Just move on and draw your own conclusions on whether or not you still want to listen to what they have to say.
Just my 0.02$.

Very good title! The hard part will be not burning through the thread before the 28th, I think.

LET'S GOOOOOO

Anyone know when the eShop updates with all those tasty shadowdrops and the new indies sale?

I'm never going to get round to playing the cheap PS4 stuff I picked up. Half an excuse and I'll just buy more stuff on Switch.
