I fear this will be more true than ever now that Ridley is more popular and in smash
I feel like the question can be flipped with this logic. If it's so insignificant a thing that it shouldn't matter to people, why bother spoiling it? Why insist on telling people before the advertisement?
Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope, Doki Doki Literature Club Plus, and Kingdom Come Deliverance have been announced for Switch as of right now.
Is a glorified commercial really that worth it?
I don't see a problem with reading a list of names a day or two ahead of time about what's going to be featured in a 40-mintue hype show.
As just one example, people here are throwing around the term "Metroid 5" as if it's a fact it's going to be there. Would it be better for a list of names to be revealed tomorrow and nothing that could pass as "Metroid 5" is on it, or for people to wait until the hype show ends on Tuesday before they get mad at themselves for hyping up a game that didn't exist and was never going to be presented due to it not actually existing?
We flock around these insiders' hints/rumors/what have you for months if not years and then shy away from seeing lists or leaks in the last day or two ahead of a hype show. It's just... weird to me, is all.
Guaranteed, which is another reason to be very restrained about expecting the Metroid IP to ever actually advance the timeline or do anything truly different with the basic set-up.
I ignore most insider stuff. If I want to watch a show, I want to see the trailers and stuff myself and I want the excitement that comes from not knowing what is going to happen. The anticipation of the unknown.
I don't watch every show. I don't even watch every Nintendo Direct. Even when I don't, I still don't look into leaks though.
At this point, enough people have told you it does bother them that it doesn't really matter if you don't understand it, just respect it.
I guess I'm out until Tuesday.
I like hints. I like teases. I like the occasional leak.
I don't like the entire contents of a presentation being dumped. That's no fun.
Practicalbrush I don't really get. Most leakers are doing it to get attention or followers or to try to make a career out of it, but as far as I know he just has a Reddit account.

Some people like to leak. It's giving people who follow them early access. That's all the clout they need, I guess.
They likely just leak because they have access in whatever job they're in and why not?
I deal with inside knowledge sometimes, but I'm mostly blind re: Nintendo and I want to remain that way until the Direct. Maybe I'll dip from this thread til then, too. :P
Alright fine. If no one else will say it, then I will: Rabbid Peach for Smash.
She is easily the breakout star of that franchise and would be so much fun.

I thought about saying it but I didn't wanna get boo'd. She is a lock for base roster of the next smash though
Easily my favorite trailer of all times. Always gets me so emotional and reminds me why I love and play games.
So, good luck, Nintendo. xD
On a tinfoil hat kind of thing:
Do we really believe leaking mario and rabbids early was "a mistake from Nintendo". I dont think it's that easy or common for N to make that mistake.
To me Ubisofts presentation was one huge subscription commercial so they wanted as many people (fans of N) to watch

Sure. After all, I'm not the one going around posting spoilers or leaks. I barely even comment.
But let's not pretend that any of this is rational behavior, because it isn't (especially the weird contradiction of following rumors for months and then backing away right before the actual hype show, which is ultimately nothing more than a glorified commercial).
there was no accompanying twitter post or press release. a dotcom page going live at 4:30 am pdt is incredibly unusual and not a great way to 'leak' a game. i think this was a human error from someone at noa.
who cares about it being a glorified commercial? Everyone has fanbases they are part of and things that are dear to them, so when something gets announced they are excited!

Incredible! What is its name? Please give it a little kiss from me
Yup. Bought the Switch after I watched that trailer. I still watch it from time to time. Still give me chills.
I hope you aren't planning to record yourself using the DSi doing something objectionable
That's the OG
Oh lol, I guess I have to watch that
Thanks, a great start. Still afraid of NintEndir3ct, hoping not to get let down.
Doge Bowser is happy
Will do! Not entirely sure on a name yet. The lady taking care him before was calling him Archie which I think fits him, but I've also been thinking about calling him Hector or something else. Obligatory kitten picture in spoiler tag.
I often watch it as a 'comfort trailer', which might sound crazy everywhere else but on a gaming enthusiast forum so what the hell. xD
That's the expectation as far as I know. No idea to what extent.
Y'all excited about that big Nintendo reveal at the Microsoft + Bethesda E3 Presentation tomorrow?
