[MassiveNights]

That Splatoon fake out was something else, especially if you were following all the whining in the Direct thread

 

[HandsomeCharles]

2018 release date, I can't believe it :D

 

[gcncontroller]

legendary. so stoked

 

[LightKiosk]

At first I was like, "meh, more Splatoon." Then I noticed they were making the cross and my hype went into overdrive.

[Cort]

That was an amazing announcement

 

[maximumzero]

Shocker of the century. Super Smash Bros? On a Nintendo Platform? You don't say!

I swear to god if Smash for Switch is a fucking Wii U port I'll have lost all respect for Nintendo.

 

[Abstrusity]

Smash damn near crashed resetera mate

 

[Alvis]

And with the superior Link :)

 

[ZhugeEX]

Can't wait.

 

[Rygar 8Bit]

Was hoping for Pokemon, but this wasn't a bad announcement.

Give me Simon Belmont or give me death.

 

[SweetNicole]

Smashing.

 

[jack_package_200]

Awesome.

It redeemed the direct from the overlong bore of the Splatoon DLC trailer.

SMASH HYPE

 

[OrangeAtlas]

They said it could not be done!

Aghast you vile non-believers!

 

[Ghostsonplanets]

Holy shit! Splatoon characters confirmed! Link to have BOTW visual! HOLY SHIT! 2018!

 

[CaptainBojangles]

[Kalentan]

Roy better be in the game at launch.

[MouldyK]

[ItsOKAY]

Epic! The music, the silouettes! Epic!

 

[Deleted member 3925]

Well there it is.

 

[Alvis]

And with the superior Link!

 

[Alrus]

Someone gif the smash logo in the Inkling's eye.

 

[SpeedyBlueDude]

Nintendo the fake out was too much. My heart. ;-;

I'm so fucking hyped. Lets go! Everyone trade in their Wii U!

 

[Dragnipur]

They didn't call it Smash 4 DX, so its potentially a new entry!

 

[SoleSurvivor]

YESSSSSSS!!!!

 

[Geg]

That was an AMAZING trailer

 

[Jazzem]

Bahaha, lost my mind when the logo appeared in inkling's eye

 

[TheIdiot]

HYPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Broken Joystick]

THEY GOT ME

 

[Mistle]

Such a tease of a trailer. Probs gonna be a port, huh? :/

 

[DigitalOp]

Nintendo has no new games. Theres nothing to play in 2018.

/s of the first 2018 direct

 

[Mecha Meister]

OMG!

Oh damn, the forum got Smashed!

 

[HockeyBird]

That was totally Breath of the Wild Link.

 

[City 17]

And it broke Era servers.

 

[YolkFolk]

Did Link have the BOTW outfit on? Thought he did from the outline.

 

[bobbychalkers]

That was a good was teaser

 

[PancakeFlip]

I don't understand, is this a new game or an enhanced port, cause they showed BotW Link as the standard.

 

[Zippo]

Fuck.

Best direct ever.

 

[Malajax]

Shooooooook!!! So hype

 

[Phendrift]

THIS LOOKS NEW

BOTW LINK

 

[Kinsei]

I'd be a lot more excited if they clarified whether the game is new or an enhanced port of the Smash U/3DS.

Also Link is BotW Link. Blegh. Hopefully the green tunic is an alt.

 

[Dreamwriter]

Didn't they already say they were working on the game?
