Yes, it's that time again when I create a topic for Nintendo's E3 three months ahead of the event. Discuss!

Gamecube Games in Wii U Shop and Paper Mario 5. :D
Star Fox and Zelda trailers, both will be playable, Gamecube games, possibly new Metroid? New Pokemon?
Quote from: K-NiGhT on March 05, 2015, 07:03:28 AMNew Pokemon?
wat
Hopefully at E3 we'll get a title and release date for Zelda game=pure bliss
I think we'll either get a year off from Pokémon or we'll get a remake of X and Y. I wouldn't expect too much after two, really three straight years of new Pokémon games.

There's been a new/remake pokemon game every year since 2009. That's only the main series ones too
Quote from: NocturneOfShadow on March 05, 2015, 09:10:51 AMHopefully at E3 we'll get a title and release date for Zelda game=pure bliss
That's what I'm most excited for. That announcement would make my year :)
Xenoblade Chronicles X

I'm honestly hoping you're right. I think Pokémon won't do well with yearly installments. Most games that go yearly seem to decline in quality exponentially as the years progress (see: Assassin's Creed, Call of Duty's sales).
Quote from: Maelstrom on March 05, 2015, 10:03:16 AMXenoblade Chronicles X
oh yeah the hype is also too real for that
no but X's are cool
Quote from: Olimar12345 on March 05, 2015, 10:34:40 AMYAS PLZ
I think a new Metroid isn't out of the question tbh. They seem to be doing a lot with the smaller franchises that appear in Smash. (Xenoblade and Star Fox come to mind.) Maybe we could even see a new F-Zero or something? They've said it's unlikely because of something with the controllers but why even make it a racing game at this point? Just make it a Captain Falcon beat-em-up and people will lose their minds.
The only thing I'm anticipating from Nintendo is new Zelda. If anything else turns up that looks really interesting then it will be a pleasant surprise :D
I'm definitely excited for the new Zelda and Xenoblade Chronicles X. I hope Pokemon takes a break, because god, it really needs it. I'm not sure what else to be looking forward to at the moment though...
Actually most experiences I have with yearly games (which is admittedly mostly Pokémon and Professor Layton) are that each one is generally better than the last.
My wild hope that probably won't happen is some announcement to do with Professor Layton, either Layton 7 or something to do with the series. That new Ace Attorney being confirmed for America would be amazing too. I'd also love if we got a 3DS re-release of Apollo Justice and the Investigations games like the trilogy release we just got.
Also this isn't really Nintendo but I hope to god Danganronpa: Another Episode gets localized. There's a slim chance because of some really questionable content (children murdering people and some rape elements from what I can tell) but I still really want to play the game.
If my girlfriend hears about another 3DS Layton she'll probably freak out lol
If there's another Layton game I am going to drink nothing but tea the whole day to celebrate.
That would be the absolute dream but they still haven't even fixed the crashing bug on the Layton Brothers app...I think they've just forgotten about it :/
Probably some stuff about Yokai Watch instead.
I'd also like to see another single player Mario game akin to Galaxy, but then again, where do you go after space?
I think Nintendo has said that there won't be any new Mario games in 2015 (besides Party I guess)
Ahh, okay. Well maybe even a teaser/hint about something next year, perhaps.
Quote from: Nebbles on March 05, 2015, 11:31:29 AMI'd also like to see another single player Mario game akin to Galaxy, but then again, where do you go after space?
the logical answer would be the bottom of the ocean
I don't think I want a game completely composed of water levels...
Quote from: Nebbles on March 05, 2015, 11:37:38 AMI don't think I want a game completely composed of water levels...
I was talking about in real life
Zelda U for sure looking forward to.
Pikmin 4?
Pikmin 4 would be nice but unlikely and unnecessary. The series is fine as a trilogy at the moment imo.
Wouldn't mind hearing something about or a confirmation of Cave Story 2 though.
Oh, yes! I almost forgot about that. Gosh, that'd be awesome if it were real...
This is Nintendo, but another Banjo game would be amazing!
The team that developed Banjo Kazooie is currently working on a spiritual sucessor lol
And it's coming out this year. (I think)
Quote from: K-NiGhT on March 05, 2015, 07:03:28 AMnew Metroid?
I'd love a new Metroid, but at this point, I'd actually like to see a Metroid II remake... it's a pretty underappreciated game in the series, and I think that if it was remade, it would be even better.
Quote from: blueflower999 on March 05, 2015, 12:58:45 PMPikmin 4 would be nice but unlikely and unnecessary. The series is fine as a trilogy at the moment imo.

Really? Awesome!
What do you mean by Spiritual Successor?
That means they're going to make something in the spirit of the old games, without it being directly related (or even remotely associated at all, in this case) to the original work. So basically something with similar humor and feel, but not "a new Banjo game".
So it won't be like Kazooie or Tooie? Crap.....
It's not going to be a sequel, or anything dealing with the franchise, if that's what you're asking
.....ok
Spiritual successor pretty much means it'll have a feel of the original series/game itself, but the plot/story/world itself is totally different.
I see.
Who cares where it is as long as it's like the originals (getting jiggies and defeating bosses in a 3D World.)
Example of "spiritual successor":
Megaman ------> Mighty No. 9
I can tell you right now that there's not going to be jiggies.
I see. How do you know?
Jiggies=Banjo=Lawsuit
Sorry. Now I'm confused :p

Nice quote bro
The only thing I ask Nintendo gives me is more stuff on the Zelda U. As far as Pokémon goes, they can't put a new game until I get the last 8 'mons for me pokedex in X.
Honestly there's nothing I'm really looking forward to from Nintendo with the exception of Zelda U, which is probably going to be the big focus this year. They've been pretty good about pumping out games I liked/got excited for these past few years so I'm just going to sit back and enjoy the show.

Same here.
I agree. Unless they've got things up there sleeve, I don't think there'll be a lot of classic Nintendo titles released this year. One thing I certainly hope for is they don't announce another Pokemon game. XD
Yeah, they've kind of flooded the market with Pokémon these past few years.
I think Pokemon becoming this huge yearly franchise might make it crash and burn if the quality goes downward. I wasn't too impressed with Gen 6 honestly, it was pretty good but that's kind of it. Like, the long wait between Pokemon games got me more excited because you know 2-3 years of waiting will generally produce a quality game. Gens 1-5 proved that much, at least.
If they make it a yearly thing, then at least do like Mario; one main series entry every 4-5 years or so, and spin-offs in between.
Though the only real spin-offs Pokémon can do are Mystery Dungeon and the Coliseum type games.
Hahaha! Let's hope we get better quality spin-off titles for Pokemon down the track. Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity wasn't up to scratch...
Y'know, I'd really love to see another Pokemon Ranger game! I always liked those ones, and imagine what the graphics would look like! BEAUTIFUL!!
On the topic of games I'd like to see: Wario Land 3DS and Super Mario Galaxy 3D would make my life. They've been increasing the years between Wario Land games and it's starting to concern me... At least the old ones are on the eShop, but a new one would be nice! Also, a remake of the Galaxy series for the 3DS or a sequel would be nice!
I haven't mentioned a Wii U Mario game 'cause we know it's coming. The portables always lack in main-series Mario... XD
Quote from: MaestroUGC on March 08, 2015, 06:41:09 PMThough the only real spin-offs Pokémon can do are Mystery Dungeon and the Coliseum type games.
Pokemon Kart Racing! Pokemon Party! Poke-Mansion! The possibilities are endless!
Or they could just make yet ANOTHER Pokemon puzzle game. Plenty of those around at the moment. :P
Quote from: fingerz on March 08, 2015, 07:27:03 PMThe portables always lack in main-series Mario... XD
Well the portables tend to lack main series anything for the most part. Nintendo has always tried to keep the focus on the home console, though I would like to see a follow up to 3D Land. I don't think Galaxy could work on something as small as the handhelds, it'd probably just make me want to play it in the Wii.
I do want to next main Mario to be more in the spirit of 64 than anything else. I want to be able to run around and do whatever again, and Galaxy didn't let you do that.
I don't like how they're using the franchise for benign games like Pokémon Shuffle (sorry, fans of that game!). I'd rather see something with some actual content in it, instead of having a generic puzzle game with Pokémon plastered over it.
And please, no more educational games... I don't need Pikachu to teach me how to type or add nine plus ten or trade stocks or differentiate functions or whatever.
The handhelds could benefit from a good Mario game that lets you roam around freely. It's a bit tiring to have them marshal you through every level.

Shuffle actually seems like a fun time waster.
^Pokémon Battle Trozei does the same thing except much better. And it's a marvelous puzzle game, very addictive.

Wow I thought I was the only one who wanted another Wario Land. Though I'd like it to be for Wii U, with 2 player co-op as Waluigi, and Syrup as the villain again of course.
Now that I think about the 3DS, I'd love Golden Sun 4...
Maybe a Wario World 2? I like 3D games and Wario World is the only 3D Wario game.
Quote from: mariolegofan on March 09, 2015, 07:57:26 AMMaybe a Wario World 2? I like 3D games and Wario World is the only 3D Wario game.
Ofc! But I fear they end up doing it as short as Wario World.
Wario World was kinda short.
My favorite games are 3D adventure games. For Example: Banjo-Kazooie/Tooie, Super Mario 64, Super Mario Galaxy, Legend of Zelda OoT, Wario World, Paper Mario, etc.
I like them especially if they are long. Some people don't like long games, but I love long games.
Like Donkey Kong 64. That's nice and long.
Some games are just short.....
Nah, I prefer 2D platform games or the top-down Pokemon-esque games. Hence my love of the Wario Land series, most Mario games, Pokemon and the good-old classic Zelda games.
And that also explains why I hate most 3D adventure games - no freakin' depth perception and shotty mechanics. I don't mind these so much on a handheld, but give me one on a home console and I won't touch it.
But hey, I'd love to see some non-shotty-with-freakin'-depth-perception games for the Wii U and some more old-style 2D/top down games for the 3DS. :D

Well, I just saw somewhere that every Zelda game since OoT has been delayed by a year, so this shouldn't come as a surprise.
honestly, i wish more devs would do this. i don't mind waiting for a game if it could be that much better.
They do, but they don't say it this way. And there is always massive backlash.

I agree. I can wait for a game if it'll be improved in any degree.
The bigger issue with it being Nintendo is that there are barely any games on their console already, and this is one less title for their already sparse holiday lineup
but
assassains creed unity was a polished and finished game
What another console may or may not have is entirely irrelevant to this particular discussion.

The "no games on the wii u" argument became irrelevant about a year ago
^Nintendo's holiday blockbuster game lineup for the future so far is really underwhelming, especially now that Zelda was postponed. The most impressive things coming out are Xenoblade and Star Fox, and neither of them are big sellers and can't be compared to Mario or Zelda.
Well let's not forget Retro. afaik, they mentioned quite some time ago they were working on something, which they started on November 2013 iirc. Be it Metroid, DK or another Nintendo IP, maybe we'll see something in this year's E3.
Nintendo has been really good a keeping secrets, so they probably have something of substance planned for E3, even if it is only smaller stuff compared to their big IPs.
cmon e3 daddy needs a new Animal Crossing
Quote from: Waddle Bro on March 28, 2015, 02:10:56 PMcmon e3 daddy needs a new Animal Crossing
Maybe on the New 3DS but probably not.
I'm disappointed that they said the game would be finished and released by holiday 2015, which was already a postponed date, and then pushed it back even further. I realize that they're messing with advanced stuff, but I've waited long enough for another console Zelda. I've been patient. But they keep pushing it further and further back and it's irritating. At this rate I might not even be around to play it when it comes out. Wind waker was chopped into a smaller game and it's still my favorite game. I fail to see exactly what they could be doing to the game to make me enjoy it any more than I already will.
^Ugh, the lost dungeons of WW still hurt me, specially the water one. I kinda agree with what you say, there are always going to be scrapped ideas for a game, but if that means to cut off real content like what happened with WW just to release the game on time, I'm absolutely against that. I'm not saying this is the case of Zelda U, but just in case, I'd rather wait. That said, the delay is obviously infuriating and frustrating nonetheless.

Perhaps in a world where the only other platform is the original Wii.
There are still only around 3-4 single player games worth playing on the console that I am aware of, which in my opinion doesn't make the console worth buying. The other two major platforms have the merits of major multiplatform releases at the very least, which the Wii U lacks entirely. Not that I would buy any of them quite yet, but it is a significant concern that has been around since the damn console came out.

Nintendo is actually one of the few game developers out there who are doing it for the fun and art of it all, not necessarily for a paycheck much to the dismay of its shareholders. They don't have to do anything, in fact they could close up shop tomorrow and that'd be the end of it.

*Reminder post about the nine year Pikmin 3 wait*
^Seriously, you act like the game is flat out cancelled, Noc.
The 2015 release was canceled though
They delayed the release to add more content to the game, not for shits and giggles. We'll get it eventually.
Or they said that to not have everyone say shit about them.
I've lost faith in all of the big companies being 100% honest about their shit
Geez, there's no reason to be so negative about everything.
I fail to see the negativity?
I just feel like no one's taking this delay for what Nintendo actually said they're doing and just going "wow those fuckers are delaying it for no reason". Like, yeah it stinks it's delayed, but if it's for more content I can wait. I'm not gonna say bad shit about them for that reason.
imo the new zelda game doesn't even look that good yet. Noc you should use this time to play older zelda games you haven't beaten yet.
^I agree, you should start on the CDI Zelda games /sarcasm

Another one?
Quote from: mariolegofan on April 28, 2015, 07:53:51 AMAnother one?
Another what? There's only one afaik lol
So... Any other thoughts about the E3 so far? Now I'm more inclined to think we'll see an Animal Crossing U because of the AC MK DLC. And still thinking that a surprise trailer for Zelda U is very likely, they didn't really specifically ruled out a trailer, just that it won't be shown maybe referring to actual gameplay.
I think Animal Crossing for Wii U is really likely for a fall release tbh
also the next Super Mario game since we didn't get one last year.
Like Main Series Mario? I don't think we'll get another entry until 2016. It'd be cool, though, if it was a return to 64-style game play.
Honestly I'm more expecting a remake of Super Mario Sunshine than anything. They've been churning out new entries for so many years, and Wind Waker HD was so well received that I doubt that'll be the last Gamecube title to get the Wii U treatment.
I'd totally like that, but the only issue I see with Sunshine are the trigger L and R buttons. Maybe they can implement it somehow, but I personally find it difficult to emulate water pressure as natural as it was in the GC.
Sunshine HD would be amazing, all that water could be beautiful. Random idea, but Luigi's Mansion would be awesome to see in HD.
At any rate they need to start making good on GC on VC soon.
I agree about Luigi's Mansion (that already looked good on Gamecube tbh) but I doubt such a short game would get that kind of treatment. However, with that game getting so much love on the 3DS sequel and in Smash, I think a new entry for Wii U is a potential possibility.
Oh I should of specified a new game, but yes. I feel as though is should move closer back to the original; one mansion, unique ghosts, etc. The sequel felt a little lacking to me.
I am hoping for another main-series Mario entry a-la 64, as Maestro said. Nothing would make me happier than doing the usual Mario antics of running around getting stars in a nice world to explore. I'd like new Animal Crossing news too, if that's actually happening...
I thought this thing was like over a month away
E3 is the first week in June, or around that, right? It's a tiny bit over a month away, April's almost over.
Quote from: NocturneOfShadow on April 28, 2015, 06:03:36 PMI thought this thing was like over a month away
and we're speculating considering it's that close. stop being a fun hater >:(
My expectations for E3
- Star Fox Horizons trailer and release date
- New Smash character
- More DLC in some game (Splatoon? Maybe more non-character Smash DLC?)
- Zelda Wii U news
- Pokémon
Well Sakurai did confirm new modes for DLC in Smash 4 so most likely.
It would be nice for them to acknowledge the Smash Poll in some way and tell us who/when they'll implement someone.
Yeah, maybe some hints to who's leading the poll would be nice, but it closes on October, so I doubt we'll get a definitive pick at E3.
A discussion on it nonetheless would be great.
I've got a feeling that there's going to be at least 2-3 characters that are miles beyond any of the other suggestions, so who's to say there isn't already one clear winner?
What I'm expecting this year:
- Star Fox; maybe a trailer, but at least some info
- Zelda U; more info regarding a final release date?
- More Mario Kart DLC; likely around the holidays (fingers crossed they fix Battle mode!)
- A surprise game from a lesser franchise (Animal Crossing/F-Zero come to mind most)
- The usual e-Shop indies
- Something Sm4sh related; New character, poll, play modes, something
- More titles for New 3DS
- More games coming to the VC; at least one big title that'll make people lose their minds
- The Nintendo Gang being dorks like normal.

Yeah, I recall hackers found data of Ryu inside Smash 3DS, so maybe him. Roy is pretty much confirmed with Sakurai being at the Fire Emblem Concert anyway tbh. And more modes are also very likely.

If we know something for sure in every E3 is this, 100% guaranteed. lol
After Iwata vs Reggie, Rhythm Karate Iwata, and other past shenanigans such as "Reggie, who's your daddy?", anything is to be expected.
I bet we'll get another Mother 3 joke.

Quote from: Nebbles on April 29, 2015, 01:52:33 PMMother 4 is a fangame.
Yup. http://www.mother4game.com/
All the Modern Men thing looks intriguing enough, and it seems a lot of effort has been put in making the game (particularly, I'd like to remark its soundtrack, very very good work so far), so I'm definitely gonna play it.
Also, iirc Itoi expressed interest in playing it, and maybe it changes his mind and decides to do something more with Mother himself, who knows... ::)
Who knows indeed.
Every Mother game is like a trial by fire for Itoi though, they were all almost cancelled at some point and all of them had to be saved by higher-ups at Nintendo (Miyamoto and Iwata mostly), so I think when Itoi says he's done, he's done. He's getting pretty old and quite frankly it's understandable if he doesn't have the energy in him to make any more masterpieces.
That being said Mother 4 looks fantastic and I'll definitely play the crap out of it.
If anything, I just want the Mother series to have something more in the West than just EarthBound on VC. Anything. Please.
Mother 1 for VC!
Japan only.
I'm good at Nintendo-ing.
Don't tease me like that :C
Mother 1 is officially fully translated though so it'd take about 2 seconds to put it on Virtual Console. Plus there isn't nearly as much controversial stuff in the game compared to Mother 3.
Mother 3 will get a NA release.
For Virtual Boy.

Thank goodness, no Nintendo smartphone games on E3. (http://nintendoeverything.com/nintendo-not-talking-about-smartphone-games-at-e3-since-the-event-is-for-dedicated-gaming-systems/) Hopefully they'll focus on unannounced titles then!
Actually, I was kind of hoping they'd elaborate on that a bit more, but I guess they don't have anything solid yet at this point?

Top Comment: A Scalper. :P
That's really mean
NINTENDO WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS 2015
THE FIRST ONE IN 25 YEARS
WHAT DOES IT MEAN
For those who haven't watched it:
One word. lol.
Nintendo makes the best videos. What a band of dorks.
I don't get the ending
Quote from: NocturneOfShadow on May 13, 2015, 02:10:14 PMI don't get the ending
The kid knows Japanese, so Reggie doesn't need Bill anymore to translate. Didn't get it at first either though...
Man, I was kind of looking forward to the games that kid was going to design.
Me too.
But seriously, whoever is in charge of making these videos deserve more money and praise. This one was probably their best yet.
At least if Nintendo drops out of the gaming market they'll have a bright future as the GREATEST PR/MARKETING FIRM OF ALL TIME.
Quote from: DonValentino on May 13, 2015, 02:19:14 PMThe kid knows Japanese, so Reggie doesn't need Bill anymore to translate. Didn't get it at first either though...
is bill in charge of localization then
cause he's not very good lol
He's localized some games, yes , but he's more of a marketing guy as well as Miyamoto's translator. He's something like Reggie's second-in-command at NOA.
oh he must be pretty good then
The part with the Virtual Boy killed me lmao.
"These games are great!"
then he should have looked up and crossed his eyes
That Virtual Boy segment really made me wonder if they are actually considering VB VC games despite the fact that there are only being two games that are actually memorable. (Mario Clash and Wario Land) Maybe they'll do a remake of VB Wario Land? Who knows.
I also liked how they had the Super Scope in the video, since I thought I was the only one who still remembered that thing outside of SSB.
Mario clash was so much meh imo. Though it would be cool if they would bring the VB library to the eShop. Lol it'd only be like 13 games for us xD
How would that even work though? Those games were kinda designed specifically for that console. Though I suppose it could potentially work on the 3DS?
The 3D techniques used in both systems is similar, what would be so hard about it?
All of the things in that video were obviously just poking fun at themselves and are not hinting at anything but ok
Quote from: SlowPokemon on May 23, 2015, 06:13:44 AMAll of the things in that video were obviously just poking fun at themselves and are not hinting at anything but ok
Maybe that's what they want you to think!?
We are exactly 2 weeks away from the E3 today! I'm glad they already announced Dr. Mario: Miracle Cure, Chibi Robo and Mario and Sonic, that way, there's more time at the E3 to show the real stuff.
Anyway, I've just found out that there's a supposed rumor that says that a multiplayer mode for StarFox will be shown, as well as a new Metroid for Wii U by Retro and Super Mario Sunshine 2 (http://www.gamespresso.com/2015/05/30/rumor-nintendo-e3-metroid-starfox-and-super-mario-sunshine-2-details/).
This was supposedly leaked by a Nintendo rep, but even if it doesn't sound too implausible, I'd personally take it with a grain of salt. I really hope Metroid and Sunshine 2 do end up appearing eventually though!
Sunshine 2 would be crazy. Well welcomed, though.
Sunshine would be great if:
1) They fix the numerous game pacing problems. Seriously, a third of the game is just tedious and frustrating.
2) They offer more variety in what you can do with and without Fludd.
3) The make the physics even more broken.
Quote from: MaestroUGC on June 02, 2015, 09:45:56 AM3) The make the physics even more broken.
THIS. THE STRATS.
Also, I really hope they bring back all that variety of voiceclips for Mario, some like the "Hooray!!" are just hilarious.
dang bro
I can do the wall jump at the end but that's about it
And Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Games
If we get another Mario game like that, we need the Sunshine voice clips. They were the absolute best.
Maestro. Nebbles. The adventure isn't over yet.
Our suffering may continue.
I'm ready.

Are you sure you weren't playing 3D Land?
I mean I don't have a Wii U so I can't really know, but the games seemed identical from the footage I've seen. Is there some massive difference that makes it suddenly greater than the minor distraction that 3D Land is?

Strangely enough that's all accurate, they just got the names wrong.
But still, who ever posted that leak now has to deal with Reggie...
An intriguing Youtube comment on the "Reggie gives us Mother 3" video:
Quote from: SolarYoshi"Oh Great another Mario game!!"
Mario Maker announced.
"GIVE US STARFOX!"
New Starfox game
"Come on Reggie, give us Mother 3!"
...?
It doesn't mean much, but it's definitely something to think about... I still find weird how they openly acknowledged Mother 3 and rejected it, I mean, in a normal world, that's not good image for a company. Then again it's Nintendo, but even so, why bothering in including a rather insulting Mother 3 joke just for the lulz?
And here's a very interesting article about Diddy Kong Racing 2. (https://kevincallahangames.wordpress.com/2014/07/09/the-strange-development-of-diddy-kong-racing-2/) Everything makes so much sense I already think DKR2 will be really announced at this E3, this article totally convinced me. Hopefully they bring back K. Rool's lost persona from the cancelled Dididy Kong Pilot, Pilot K. Rool:

DKR2 sounds like a pipe dream. I wish it as was an actual thing, but I doubt it.
Nintendo DID just trademark "DIDDY KONG" for use in the UK, so...

It said nothing about purchasing them.
...I'm not really gonna buy the n3ds port just to transfer characters.
It definitely felt like a game that would be more enjoyable on a portable for the mindless melee sessions, so I look foward to that release. Well, until it's reveled that due to hardware limitations only Nintendo has there's only going to be like 10 enemies onscreen at once or something :|

Any thoughts on the Nintendo Best Buy World Championship? I personally thought it was pretty good, especially during the final Kaiso Super Mario Maker showdown. It was pretty intense.
(Here's the link for anyone that missed it. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J9H8VcU21j4) Skip to around 3:31:00 for the Super Mario Maker showdown!)

I recomend trying Rive. It's a twin stick shooter that is both a side scroller and a platformer with large explosions and such. I stink at it, but I had a blast.
Any last minute speculations? I'm really irritated that I can't watch it since I'll be at work. But I'll try to keep up to date with the announcements.
Last minute speculations:
Reggie will pile drive someone, or otherwise cause great bodily harm.

I think that was a big problem as to why Nintendo's presentation wasn't as great. Like, they show all this cool stuff... but then not follow up on any of it, kicking it to the curb to move on to the next thing. There were some points in the presentation where I legitimately felt confused because there weren't any breaks or follow-up afterwards (looking at you SMT X FE). It felt like they wanted to show all this new stuff, but didn't have enough time to thoroughly explain all of it, and just left some trailers there instead.
I'd also like to point out that for the record, we still don't really know much about Metroid: Federation Force, other than the Blast Ball minigame. Maybe the game is as bad as people are saying it is, but I'm not convinced until we know more about it.
Too much Mario Maker. Seriously.
It's now gotten to the point that people are saying that Nintendo is holding off on all the games to release them on the NX instead of the Wii U. Nintendo really shouldn't have kept mentioning it.
What's NX?
And still no details about the system itself either. "We'll be happy to tell you all about the NX... at next e3." I'm happy about the new Star Fox game though. It looks really good!
NX is Nintendo's next console. As of right now, we know pretty much nothing about it.
The Wii U probs has a few years left. It's got Zelda Wii U next year and probably some other stuff, but I thought NX was a mobile platform, and not the actual next gen console?
Nintendo has begun working with DeNA, a company specializing in mobile games that has worked with companies like Square Enix and Disney. The NX might be a mobile platform. It would make sense. But, I'm not sure if the NX is related to Nintendo's newest partnership. There's just not enough information yet.
Wii U is already a stale console that they're just stalling with a few token titles until NX can come out, at least that's the impression they're giving everyone. They didn't even bother to talk about their replacement for Club Nintendo/real online service today which is another huge disapopintment.
No, NX is not mobile platform, everything beyond "NX is the next thing" is pure rumor. The only definitive descriptor was in the announcement back in March:
Quotededicated game platform with a brand-new concept
Shit, I almost forgot about the Club Nintendo replacement. I was hoping for news about that...
Just to be clear, NX isn't a replacement console for the Wii U
Quote from: Waddle Bro on June 16, 2015, 04:08:39 PMJust to be clear, NX isn't a replacement console for the Wii U
Well, that's also what they said about the DS.

That's pretty cool, they've gone from blowing off indies to actively supporting them in promotions. A nice change from all of those horror stories with Wiiware indies.
Starfox: WOO!
New Legend of Zelda: Ok, I guess.
New "Metroid": METROID IS DEAD. :'(
Come on, the Metroid spin off is obviously supposed to tease us for a main series game TBA later this year. Nintendo ain't stupid enough to be content with this.
I am really hyped for Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam, because it looks more Mario & Luigi than Paper Mario (imo the former is far superior to the latter) and uses what looks like the same graphics engine and sprite work as Dream Team (which, regardless of how you feel about the game, was incredible visually speaking).

I'm not quite sure about that...

The sprite work was good in Dream Team. But, as I've found, I seem to prefer more stylized 2D artwork than 3D. Like for Ace Attorney. I just think the cartoony feel really fits with the series.
The fact that the new metroid game is a Prime spinoff anyway makes me not care for it. Anything with the Prime name on it except for Pinball is a game I skip. I prefer 2D Metroid any day.
Metroid Prime 1 is worth playing, no matter how much you hate FPSs. 2 and 3, on the other hand, are up for debate.

This.
Especially with the Wiimote controls. If you can find Metroid Prime Trilogy (or just have a Wii U), it's definitely worth picking up.

It's definitely a fun game. I spent as much time as I could in the morph ball though because first person point of view gets on my nerves

Normally, I'm not a fan of FP view. But I found I came to like it due to all the nice touches Retro added. Like how water runs down the visor when you jump out of liquid. Like how bright flashes briefly show Samus's reflection in the visor. It just felt so right.

While he may not feel he's making a side-story, no real artist does is they put any effort into it, it is probably going to be regarded by official canon as such.
All I can saw is nobody cares about Metroid-shooter games. Go back to the original 2D games. Then people might actually be happy. :P
Except for the part where Metroid Prime is considered the greatest Metroid game of all time
And really, at this point all we want is a new main series Metroid game period.

^ pffft lol no it isn't. It's the best 1st-person game in the prime series, sure, but it can't hold a candle to Super Metroid.

Why not bothThey're both great in their own right. Personally, I'd like to see a new one in each line.
Metroid will probably follow the same route as Zelda and Castlevania; with the handheld consoles getting the older, classic way of playing, and the home consoles getting more games in the vein of Prime.
^ Hell, I'd settle for that, so long as we get SOMETHING in the next decade. Federation Force obviously doesn't count.
I still want to see a Metroid II remake...
Lovin' the hate for the new Metroid spin-off. ^^
I'm not a huge Metroid fan to say the least, but even making a FPS version for the Wii U and a Platform version for the 3DS would've done the job nicely. But no, of course not...
On the other hand, HOLY SHIT THEY PUT PAPER MARIO IN A MARIO & LUIGI RPG GAME!! Man oh man, if it's anything like Sticker Star and Dream Team Bros. smooshed together, it'll be amazing! :D
But please, not more 3D and 2D world interchange... Two games like that were plenty enough... XD

I agree with this completely undoctored statement.
HEY! I reckon it has the potential to be fabulous, so long as they keep true to both aspects of each game's heritage. Fingers crossed the storyline's better than Dream Team Bros.
Am I the only one who's actually surprisingly really hyped for Super Mario Maker?
Quote from: SlowPokemon on June 18, 2015, 07:16:16 AMAm I the only one who's actually surprisingly really hyped for Super Mario Maker?
I am! I can't wait!
I'm excited for Super Mario Maker, Xenoblade Chronicles X, Starfox Zero, Fire Emblem Fates, the new Zelda, and quite a few other titles.
Also on the subject of Metroid, I am deeply ashamed in the community for their reaction to this new game. It's a spin off. This doesn't mean that Metroid is dead. There will more than likely be a main series game within the next year or so. This is just something to keep us waiting. Besides, with the disaster that Other M seems to have turned out to be, they probably want to spend plenty of time making sure Samus' next story is her best yet.
But they confirmed that a true Metroid Prime title was not in the works. They also said, if they started it now, it would most certainly be on the NX.

They also said the NX would be shown at E3 next year. Imo, the probability of a new Metroid being a launch title is not that far fetched. It's a series that a lot of fans would be clamoring for, and that would definitely push units of Ninty's new console straight out the door.
Let's just hope they get it right this time on
both fronts.
I didn't really listen to anything E3-ish. Only heard about it.
Did they talk about Zelda U?

Nope. Not one bit.
Wow.....crumby e3 this year :/
ok, I know that this E3 wasn't as good as last year's, but god damn you all are so entitled.
"Waah they didn't show off a new Zelda. Waah they announced a Metroid spin-off instead of a new main series game. Waah Star Fox looks like shit. Waah."
Be excited for things that are coming up! It's not the end of the world if Nintendo doesn't announce every big title in their arsenal at E3. That's what Nintendo Directs are for.
We can be bummed out if we want, damn. Let's face it, Nintendo didn't bring much to the table this year in quality.
Edit: wait one damn second that starfox game did not look like shit. It might have been the best thing they had this year.
The only thing I'm legitimately disappointed about is no new Super Mario game, since it's been nothing new since Super Mario 3D World. Mario & Luigi RPG 5 makes up for it tho
Like I could care less about the Zelda, Metroid or Star Fox franchises honestly
I've found myself caring less about Zelda and Mario, and more about the more obscure Nintendo franchises, like Metroid, Fire Emblem, Mario & Luigi, Xenoblade, etc. over the years. It's kind of weird.
People get bored of seeing the same recycled content, which is what Nintendo has been using as a crutch for a long, long time. Zelda manages to stay fresh simply by having such sparse releases at the very least...
I've always enjoyed Nintendo most when they've tried something very different, i.e. Mario Sunshine, Mario & Luigi, Pikmin. They don't even need a new IP, just do something fresh with one of their existing ones, I don't care.
Ah well, luckily everything besides Nintendo at E3 was far beyond expectations, the next year or two will be very very good for games in general :D
I still thought the whole thing was pretty underwhelming IMO. Earthbound Beginnings, (Being my favorite in the series) Fatal Frame, Super Mario Maker and Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon were the highlights for me this year. I am still not impressed with the lack of Zelda and the decision to delay in the first place. However, since Reggie finally gave a legitimate reason for the no-show (Focus on titles coming out really soon instead of a year and a half or so from now), I'll give it a pass for now, but I at least expect one final look before the year ends.
However may I ask at least one thing? Am I seriously the ONLY one who thought Star Fox Zero didn't have the "N64 quality graphics" everyone on facebook and youtube are complaining about right now? On my HDTV the trailer looks fine in HD, better than SF643D for me and that was a beautiful game IMO. Is there something I'm not getting or is that a case of serious nitpicking?
If anything I'm more upset about how it's yet another reboot and how it plays just like SF64, which was really a reboot of SF on the SNES, Which was an After Burner II clone. Did Adventures onward really "destroy" the Star Fox series like people claim it did? All I remember of Star Fox growing up was a magazine preview of Adventures I saw in a store when the game was about to come out, and then the commercial for Command when that was released. I didn't have the internet for the first eight years of my life, and even afterwards I didn't start using it until 2009 (Long story...), so I really would like to know why I see some people overjoyed it's SF64 gameplay and others upset that it's a reboot, as I didn't follow it back then...

I could make the argument that this is game design 101 and that Nintendo is nowhere near the worst offender of this, but I will agree that there is room for improvement and expansion on the formulas they've already created.

Call it a clone on older concepts or not, the core gameplay of Starfox that Nintendo had set out to create in the first place was space battles and dogfights. Adventures was a huge mistake in that regard, as the game wasn't even supposed to
be a Starfox game until Miyamoto saw the early builds and was like "gee, the main character looks a bit like Fox, doesn't he?" Starfox 0 is taking the series back to its roots, for better or for worse.
So uh, there's no F-Zero but this seems like the next best thing:
Supposedly this is the slowest speed setting.
Shinen makes great games most of the time, so I honestly hope Nintendo would work with them to make this an F-Zero game. Have another company do the work so they don't have to, and fans will be happy!
I don't think we necessarily need people to make Nintendo's IPs for them, I find it totally acceptable and perhaps preferable for developers to come to the console themselves with their own games. That's the kind of thing that makes it actually appealing to buy, since they're pretty lacking in exclusives beyond first party.

It's really kind of sad only one of those four actually got time during the digital event.
The digital event seriously felt lacking.

Basically describes my thoughts about the e3 digital event. thinking about everything "big" that has came out recently it feels like they had no cards in their hand for e3.
