Fans go nuts trying to decipher Nintendo's Wii U software teases

▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ ▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ ▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒

Who thought that those marks could lead to so much speculation? Fans are doing their best to find out just what is waiting behind those marks. Here's what we know for sure.

- The first blurb has 33 characters
- The second blurb has 27 characters
- The third blurb has 19 characters

With that, fans are trying to make up names that fit into those spaces. We have everything from The Legend of Zelda HD Collection to Kirby's Adventure 2. You might want to hit up the Facebook page to see what others are guessing!

Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 5 is 27 characters

Not going to happen, but eh.

Yes, yes, yes and YES!

...Ahem. Anyway...I'll bet this is just a silly hype message. Funnily enough, "is your body ready?" happens to fit the 19 character line if you count the spaces and question mark. Heh.

now this is just dumb. I dont see the fun in trying to guess a title (with sub titles nevertheless) when it will only be a few more days before everything is announced.

Wouldn't work even if it did, as the Persona series isn't actually part of the SMT franchise, and based on how P4A is being marketed so far, they may be removing the SMT from the series in the US as they no longer need it to sell copies of the games from the franchise.

Don't count it out, though, as unlikely as it is we're getting SMT 4 on the 3DS... and that is a huge deal.

This is three Wii U launch titles, Pandora's Tower is a Wii game.

Kirby's Adventure 2? Impossible, unless HAL has managed to make the entire game within the last 9 months after finishing Returns to Dreamland last October. lol.

Agreed. -_-

This is a complete waste of everyone's time. (*Which is the point of all this until E3 arrives*)

Back at Planet Gamecube 2001, in the beginning of the presentation, they placed a huge emphasis on 3 games: Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requim, Metroid Prime, and Starfox Adventures. What if we got something similar this year?

Part Three, actually. Japan already got a sequel to FP:TRR, roughly translating to something like Color Changing: Tingle's Love Balloon Trip.

The Legend of Zelda: Space Marine

Pikmin: Olimar's Adventures

WiiU play: showdown


Well one of them is probably pikmin and the large one is too big of a title to be anything other than zelda (probably some hd collection)

We've agonized for 11 months about Wii U's launch lineup that is literally 4 days away, and people are going crazy over a silly facebook post meant for casual fans? C'mon, guys. lol.

I still think the 19-character one is "Super Mario Bros. 4".

This is pretty much what I want... minus the whole "actual adult" stuff.

What 'casual' fan would like any of Nintendo's Facebook pages, though? Come on. :lol: :wink:

The Legend of Zelda Four Swords u (as the console name)
The Legend of Zelda Four Swords + (just because)
The Legend of Zelda - Four Swords (Nintendo trying to confuse us even more)
The Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword (HD version? Too soon though...)
The Legend of Zelda Majora's Mask (HD version? I would prefer a porting/remake for 3DS as the OoT one, though)
The Legend of Zelda: ADD SUBTITLE (completely new game!)
Super Smash Brothers - Tournament (isn't it too early for a new SSB game, though, even if Sakura is making it?)

I can't think of more long-titled Nintendo games... ^^'
