I hope you're right, as long as they don't follow the Shadow Pokémon concept. I found it uninteresting and having to battle in doubles all the time was annoying. Plus, there weren't wild Pokémon to train with in Colosseum or XD.

How long 'til the Nintendo Direct starts, by the way?

About 4 more hours!

Since we didn't have a 3D title for generation 5 yet, I'd say there is a good probability it will be announced, hopefully with the same models as in Pokédex 3d Pro. It would be nice with a Pokémon Stadium-liked game, but I don't mind an entirely new story unique for the 3D game.

3 hours and 26 minutes left by the way.

About 3 hours left.... right?

I have a question can you watch the ustream even if you don't a Twitter or Ustream Account. I just want to know ahead of time before it starts. I really don't want to miss it.

I haven't been following the Pokemon news for a bit, what the heck is happening? I'm guessing it's going to be something big, heres hoping that it'll be great.

Yep, you don't need any such account. I don't think you need a Ustream account to watch it there, and you don't need a Twitter account to watch any stream. Here's a bunch of different ways you can watch it:

Also, I believe you can watch it on your Nintendo 3DS (but I've never done it that way before so I don't know how)

Ok thank you for the insight much appreciated. Now I know I can watch it with no worrys :)

Meh. I might get back just in time after dinner. Ah well.

But the more the announcement time is getting closer, the more I've got this feeling this won't be just any game. Could be something totally unexpected.

Okay, I'm tired but just less than an hour to go now!

I couldn't get into the forums, it says "The server is too busy at the moment. Please try again later." Too many people waiting to see what kinds of news is going to be?

Oh, and 49 minutes left :)

I got that "Server is too busy" message when I tried logging in 10 minutes ago but I knew why.

40 minutes. It seems like I've been waiting for an eternity for this. Today went by too slowly. My heart is racing to hear the big news, I can't wait.

I managed to be up in time for the announcement. I didn't think I would be but now I want it to hurry so I can go back to bed...lol.
