Will there be some kind of timer on this site counting down the days until it is released? I've seen similar timers on other websites, so I'm sure it will be possible.

What we do is, if we ever need that extra push over the cliff, you know what we do?
We put the volume up to eleven. One louder.

That would probably be up to Feld0 or AMAC, but it hasn't been discussed before.

Mind you, I don't want to see one. I remember this time where it was on the CoD site. Longest 90 days of my friggin' life.

I know right?! I believe there was one for both Black Ops and MW3, right?

Yes the Black Ops one!

And when it finally came it out, I was like "... why the hell did I stare at that for 90 days?!"

I think feld0 made one for e3 last year, or maybe it was for the 3DS launch or something.

I had a countdown timer counting down to Nintendo's E3 2011 presentation. I've been considering doing that again this year. Would you guys like that?

I wouldn't enjoy it. Would make the tension be terrible here. I'd be so hyped up that I'd end up letting myself down. Kinda like the 3DS launch.

Games that refuse to use Gameplay effectively to do anything are like films that refuse to use cinematography in film to do anything.

I think I would like it, but others seem to be against it. Maybe we should do a poll.

I would like it.
The timer would add so much suspense and definitely should be considered once a release date is announced.

I'd go for it. It's easier than doing the calculations in my head only to get a "yippee 120 days to go...."

No countdowns, it's gonna make waiting so hard >_<'

Can't you create a new tab named "Countdown" where you put the countdown? Like just not on the front page.

If I make a countdown, I'll do it with Wii U Go's branding. It'll be hosted either on Wii U Go or a dedicated countdown domain (perhaps I'll make something similar to http://ponycountdown.com/).
