Okay... obviously this is a few weeks away... umm, in addition to the Project Cafe successor to the Wii, what do you hope to see there?
Personally, I'm hoping they'll announce another Professor Layton game US release (maybe the Phoenix Wright one, even), a Pokemon 3DS game, a fourth Mario and Luigi RPG, and I hope they officially announce the Super Mario, Mario Kart, Animal Crossing, and Paper Mario games for the 3DS.
Also looking forward to the inevitable new information on Zelda: Skyward Sword and Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance.
Expectations:
HL2 EP3 not being there.
Portal 2 DLC stuff.
ME3 trailer with gameplay.
More Skyrim stuff to drool over.
Batman Arkham City gameplay trailer.
Microsoft will either try to relaunch Kinect with "real" games or just give it another random casual mention.
Lots more NGP info, hopefully pricing and playable demos.
The 3DS either finally getting games during the autumn/holiday or just plain announcements. They have to put games on it because Sony sure as hell is going to on the NGP as they aren't really the gimmick squadron kind. If they only drop on 2 or 3 more then it will severely hurt sales.
I want more stuff on the new Kirby game coming out for Wii.
Also:
Skyrim
Skyward Sword
Borderlands 2(crosses fingers)
and whatever else looks cool I guess
Borderlands was dull, lifeless, and rather boring. I don't know why you would ever want more of that.
I would actually agree with that, but it's probably because I'm not a fan of fp shooting games. :P

just like yo mama. SNAP
Wii 2 is probably the most interesting thing. Then I don't know, GTA 5, Skyward sword, some new 3ds games and the latest spyro-game perhaps (beated spyro 1 during the weekend again)
I bet a lot of surprises are coming this E3
Quote from: SuperFireKirby on May 16, 2011, 03:14:38 AMjust like yo mama. SNAP
Ha. Ha ha. You're just so funny.
Skyward Sword definitely looks promising. It's good that they realised the Wii really can't handle the realistic style they were going for with TP and changed it to a blend of the cartoony and realistic styles.
Yeeaaah...Twilight Princess was alright and stuff but the "realness" of it was off-putting
Quote from: KefkaticFanatic on May 16, 2011, 04:28:35 PMHa. Ha ha. You're just so funny.
Glad to hear it.
Anyways, the original idea for Kirby Wii(that is, a traditional 3D-2D sidescroller with 4-player coop) is apparently going to become a reality. Hope to see much more at E3.
Also, I HOPE FOR A BORDERLANDS 2 BECAUSE THE ORIGINAL BORDERLANDS WAS A VERY ENTERTAINING, WELL THOUGHT OUT GAME WITH STYLISH GRAPHICS AND ENOUGH DRY HUMOR TO FEED A LARGE ORPHANAGE IN SOUTH CENTRAL CHECHNYA. I SHOULD KNOW. I BEAT THE GODDAMN GAME. TWICE.
Anyways, Skyrim gameplay trailer. I want.
If LoZ:SS has those skulltula things, I'm giving up on that series. Seriously. I can't even beat the first dungeon in TP because of those.

Ya those were very annoying. But I think they should be easier with the new controls.
Gamecube TP > Wii TP. very obviously
Why? The gamecube version didn't have the idiotic motion controls
Quote from: Raymondbl on May 17, 2011, 02:21:43 PMYa those were very scary.
fixed. I'm so totally afraid of spiders it's not even funny.

this was probably your favorite part
I'm not expecting anything this year, 'cause I want to be surprised. Plus I know Nintendo's conference can't be as awsm as it was last year haha.
Quote from: KefkaticFanatic on May 17, 2011, 04:36:06 PMthis was probably your favorite part
I haven't even made it there. >_<
Armogohma looks very different from the N64 version... I like it. :D
You mean OoT? I'm pretty sure that it had a different name.
Anyways, the spider boss in OoT...
I remember throwing a deku nut at it right as it was jumping to the ceiling. It disappeared.
I walked around for a few minutes looking for it when suddenly the game froze.
...that's a pretty serious glitch. XD
No, it just didn't like you. :P
I just hope they make you able to climb faster than in twilight princess. (So frustrating... Go get a snack with something holding the control stick forward.. :P) (Yes, that would be the Gamecube version.)
I haven't but want to make it to an E3 conference. Where do they usually hold them? (Yeah, I know. I haven't done much research)
They were closed to the public years ago. You need to be press or a developer.
Which is why I've been working for the Virginia Journal Constitution for the past 27 years.
Your photo doesn't depict your age. You look like you're 18 in it... :S
There's no way Jub is 18.
He says he's 15.
OR IS HE. :o
Yes. I've heard him on the phone and there is no way he's eighteen.
I would say that he looks like 16
Why does everyone get to talk on the phone, but leave me out.
15, now get back on topic.
Most likely, they're going to reveal tons of games for the 3DS in order to make it worth buying in the eyes of gamers that say they aren't buying the system because it doesn't have any of the games they want.
I look forward to watching it live at the http://e3.nintendo.com/ website.
Paper Mario 3DS, first and foremost. I JUST WANT SOME GOOD FOOTAGE IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK
And a trailer for SS, and the Cafe. That's really all I care too much about. OH, have you guys heard about this? (http://www.mediafire.com/?bdba5gldf0pgsgu) It's really interesting, and I really hope it's true.
:P why tempt us with a deleted file?
I'm looking expecting to be left with a dissatisfied feeling after the Nintendo conference as I am almost every year. Major build up to what might be an awesome game? No, just Wii Music, possibly the most generic, boring game every conceived!
I've seen some videos of the 3DS AR cards and I look forward to seeing what else they'll do with that.
Edit: ...What if you played with the card directly from your computer screen?

2010 = Probably one of the best conferences (if not the best one) Nintendo had. I don't think this year's going to be as awsm as last year. And yeah Wii Music was meh, but this year we should see moar stuff on Zelda Skyward Sword.
Last year was pretty good. It almost makes up for 09's failure
I disagree completely. I thought '09 was great. SMG 2, Bowser's Inside Story, and NSMB Wii.
All great games, no matter what everyone else says.
In contrast, I don't recall anything fantastic about '10.

Rofl. Skyward Sword, Kirby's Epic Yarn, Donkey Kong Country Returns, Kid Icarus Uprising, Metroid Other M, the 3DS was shown, Golden Sun Dark Dawn.
Oh and I meant 2008, not 2009. 2009 was still meh in comparison to 2010 though.
Oh wait wasn't skyward sword 09 too? Oh yeah...only one poster :P
Still, Epic Yarn was something of a disappointment and quite honestly...I haven't played the others you mentioned. Dx 3DS is cool though.
Haven't played all of those games either, it was just amazing to see them being announced.
wait... was 08 Wii Music? If so, that's what I meant. I think it was. Only good announcement then was AC: City Folk.
Yeah, iirc it was in 2008. They announced AC and Wii Speak. That conference was awful.

Oops wrong link (http://www.zeldauniverse.net/zelda-news/skyward-sword-choir-at-e3/)
I have a feeling we'll have a release date for Skyward Sword tomorrow, there is apparently going to be a massive announcement for it. I have a friend at Cal State Fullerton who's telling me that their choir is going to be singing SS songs at E3... its going to be huge.
Oh, and apparently they're showing off Project Café, but that's no biggie -- you all knew that! ;D
So... Café is Wii U? At least, for now?
With... SUPER SMASH BROS.!!! And Battlefield and some other fun stuff. Nice!
I'm pretty excited. However, there's a ton of questions left unanswered and we'll probably have to wait a WHOLE year for the next E3 until we get the rest of the details.
My biggest concerns are really just the price tag and how much the console will take advantage of its backwards compatibility. I want to play most games on the Wii remote cause that tablet just doesn't seem too comfortable to play for a while. Online also needs some fixing, but I don't use that anyway.
My theory on the price is that the console will be really cheap, like only a hundred dollars or something, but the controllers will also cost about 100 dollars. So getting the system and 2 controllers would be 300 dollars and that seems pretty fair. The 3DS should hopefully get a price cut by the time Wii U launches too.
Games wise, Luigi's Mansion 2 was a huge surprise and I know that I have to get a 3DS now for that. The rest of the 3DS lineup seemed great too. But why was there no word on any Wii games except for Zelda? No Pikmin 3 news makes me sad...
Well that was awful.
3DS games: Luigi's Mansion 2, Mario Kart look moderate
Wii-U (Wu):
Horrible name
Controller is a tablet except it's horribly thick, looks between 2-2.5 DVD cases
They claim it has PS3 quality graphics (based on prerendered demo trailer)
3rd party games: Assassin's Creed, Batman Arkham City
No Bethesda, Epic, Valve, any other srs hardcore studios
All 3rd party demos show maybe 360 level graphics
All of the concepts for Wu gameplay show that there will be only one giant controller and other plays use wiimotes (5 player possible)
Wu controller is horribly ugly btw
There are only 8 tech demos for Wu at E3, no games and Nintendo had no actual games to confirm besides New Super Mario Bros Mii (replaces toads with Miis)
EA guy mentioned a solid online experience, however no talk of online from Nintendo AT ALL
No Pikmin 3, Kirby, new Star Fox
Cross platform Smash bros announced, but nothing of it
So yea, Nintendo I am freaking disappoint. At least you have some 3rd party support but all the devs listed were gimmick devs (EA sports, Ubi), though you did get confirmed Batman and Assassin's.
They probably didn't show a whole lot of games or features because the thing won't even be released until late next year. They'll probably get more stuff to show at next year's E3.
The games they did push were all for the 3DS. Though nothing was really amazing, it was more than enough to get me to want to buy one.
I won't pass judgement on the controller until I actually get my own hands on it. And maybe look around at other websites to see if their hands-on experience was really uncomfortable, cause I would bet that Nintendo spent a lot of time testing out the ergonomics of this thing and wouldn't just rush out the first prototype.
All of the concepts are just concepts and there's probably a huge variety of play styles that can be utilized besides the ones demonstrated.
And on graphics, again, there's over a year to wait and that time could give these games even more polish, and people will keep pushing the graphics all through the life cycle of the system, so we'll get graphics better than the 360 and PS3 in time. And the fact that there is finally a 1080p HD console, regardless of whether or not it's late is pretty interesting news.
Basically all the complaints I've read around the internet are based off of a lack of knowledge about the system or footage that is being released over a year before we'll get to play any of the games. There's plenty of time for questions and concerns to be adressed. Actually, there's still the developers roundtables that haven't happened yet. I bet we'll get more information then too.
Wtf you guys. Paper Mario, animal crossing, Luigi's Mansion 2, Mario Kart, and a Super Mario game. All looking completely epic in my opinion. my complaint: Wii-U looks meh and the excitement was too centered on 3DS.
no pikmin. :/
no kirby? well this was a disappointment
There were some good title offerings. I still wanna hear about SS, maybe ill ask on Thursday. I am finally glad to see solid third party titles, hopefully there will be more awesome titles in the future.
Wii U is a horrible name, but I guess Nintendo wants to stick with their shitty nomenclature of their systems.
I do like the controller idea, but that thing is fat and will probably be heavy. It totally needs to be refined further, but I do like the fact I can play console games on it sans TV.
I will end up buying the 3DS, when the 2nd version comes out with better features (or there's a price discount)... and after I get a car. Thank God I have a job for the summer!
lego city stories looks like grand theft auto: lego.
There's a few games on the Nintendo E3 homepage that weren't talked about at the conference including the two Kirby games we know about right now. Right here. (http://e3.nintendo.com/games/#/all)
Yeah the website is where all the goods are. Trailers and screenshots for everything, like Skyward Sword and Kirby Wii.
Edit: The Japanese site is so much better.
Here's zelda, you can navigate your way around from here (http://www.nintendo.co.jp/n10/e3_2011/04/zelda_skyward_sword/index.html)

Fuck it. Nintendo isn't getting any more money from me for games. From now on, I'm pirating all the games I want.
Fuck you Nintendo.
And about the name: (https://www.ninsheetmusic.org/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2F26.media.tumblr.com%2Ftumblr_lc3ujuPC6q1qccnmio1_500.gif&hash=f61c861b7efbf80e2b5b39d80238499f3a45dc0e)
My disappointment is mostly gone. Kirby Wii looks AMAZING. 4-player co-op, new powers I've never seens before along with new enemies and bosses. And looking at some of the more over the top powers in the trailer, it looks like they're bringing power combining back from Kirby 64 which would be awesome. HAL, you never disappoint me. :)
Also, SS trailer is giving me more excitement for the game than I had before.
I pretty much got everything I wanted out of nintendo since I really couldn't care less about the Wii U or the 3DS. Except for Pikimin 3. :-\
But they're bringing Rhythm Heaven to Wii which is pretty awesome, because the DS one was really neat.
Luigi's Mansion is being developed by the studio that did Punch Out for the Wii. Now I'm unsure about it :\
At least Mario Kart 3DS is being partially done by Retro. They do a good job.

On the 3DS eShop they have all the trailers as free downloads so I got several. Luigi's Mansion looks actually pretty good. Nintendo's audience has been demanding a sequel for a long time at this point, I don't think they'd just allow something to be crappy just for the sake of "here's your sequel now go away."
Mario Kart I was skeptical about but you know, the 3D looks pretty good with that game.
Also, the animal crossing people are too tall!!!! D:
I'm so pissed off at Activision now, they seriously ruined Spyro
But the Wii 2 looks epic, but still weird, I guess it depends on the games (how the controller is used)
The new Legend of Zelda that was shown looks seriously epic
and...
OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG
Super Smash Bros 4!
OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG
EDIT: I just read your comments now
Seriously, Nintendo was great this year, I don't care if they didn't announce Pikmin 3, F-Zero or anything like that, there was so many great games revealed that I won't care
The Wii 2's graphics look stunning, the controller might be used well (Mii Chase for example), and playing while sitting in your bathroom and taking a shit
Seriously, it was amazing.
I'm waiting in my little corner of excitement until AlphaDream anounces something.
Aw man! No new F-Zero? Well, at least there's a Luigi's Mansion 2...
HOW DID I MISS THIS?! (http://www.destructoid.com/e3-pikmin-3-is-officially-coming-to-wii-u-203253.phtml)
You of all people.
SKYRIM LOOKS SO FUCKING EPIC.
Just saw a 15 minutes gameplay trailer thingy on G4's E3 coverage. *Pre-orders*
Don't even get close to excited about Smash Bros.
1) They haven't even put together a development team yet
2) Sakurai says he wants to put a bunch of BS like a leveling system and what in it
About Pikmin:
Also is ages away. All he's said is "oh yea actually it will be on Wii U because it's cool"
Honest is no different than previous "announcements", it won't be coming anytime near launch.
Games at E3 I'm actually really excited about:
Elder Scrolls V Skyrim
Mass Effect 3
Batman Arkham City
Skyward Sword
Maybe games:
Bioshock Infinite
Luigi's Mansion 2
New console Ace Combat (forgot the name)
I'm worried that they're going to easymode up Ace Combat based on interviews and gameplay footage, but we'll see. I don't count Zelda, Star Fox, or the 3DS MGS because they're remakes.
If you still get excited about Animal Crossing then there's something wrong with you.

Really? Youre going to try to de-hype the biggest pikmin fanboy? lol.
ZOMG ANIMAL CROSSING
No but really, my whole post was shut down by the "Don't even get close to excited about Smash Bros."
Looking forward to Skyward Sword, but then I remember the E3 demo from last year when the creator was forced to spin around indefinitely. -.-
Well, they've probably fixed the glitches by now. Gonna play and enjoy the game anyways.
I just hope it comes with Wii Motion Plus so I don't have to go buy it seperately
Watched Nintendo's E3 conference today.
I'm definitely buying the Zelda wiimote. I was hoping for a Gold 3DS, but that wiimote kinda makes up for it. Plus I hope the orchestra's going to perform in Canada too. Also Luigi's Mansion 2 is amazing. :D
Anyone hear about El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron? Just saw it at E3 and they have a demo on Xbox Live/ PS3 marketplace. Downloaded it, played through it, and its fairly AMAZING. Normal mode is really difficult and kinda frustrating but the game is really well designed, has insanely weird but awesome graphics, and its just a really fun game overall from what I played in the demo. Totally buying it when it comes out
Nintendo of Europe apparently said that Skyward Sword is supposed to be released sometimes in August even though Reggie said it'd be released in the holiday season. Thoughts? Methinks it'd be freaking amazing.
Also link: http://www.zeldainformer.com/2011/06/skyward-sword-is-coming-out-in-august-according-to-nintendo-of-europe.html
^Ohhh. Well that might let me have more time to buy a Wii.
Also this. Not sure if it belongs here though.
http://blog.us.playstation.com/2011/07/23/soulcalibur-v-at-comic-con-ivy-natsu-z-w-e-i-detailed/
I have never owned a portable gamconsole before (exc. my phone), but I'm really interested in the 3DS now as I think there are a better class on the games now
So the problem is that there isn't a single chance for me to get enough cash to get both a 3DS and Skyward Sword before the Wii U comes out in the middle of next year (assuming it will, it's after April at least)
