I can't tell by the timing, but I guess this thread was started before the mini Direct posted today? Do we want to reboot the forum betting special in anticipation of Nintendo's next "full sized" Direct?
-
Yeah this was like an hour-ish before it shadow dropped (I guess? Does it count as a shadow drop if everyone's freaking out over it for days?)
Also I totally forgot this was a little mini-direct and not a big boy if my grand predictions didn't make it obvious.
-
Yeah, I guess it doesn't count
-
If we're still doing this then maybe edit your first post with big bold text that the bet is for whatever big Nintendo Direct comes next, January or no.

Am I the only one who was deeply underwhelmed (as someone who loves 1&2) of the No More Heroes 3 gameplay?
