Nintendo Press Conference (discussion and live stream)

That was the greatest E3 conference of all time. Miyamoto / Iwata / Reggie are AWESOME

Red Steel looked ABSOLUTELY STUNNING in the presentation. I didn't expect them to match the competitors grapihcs, but Nintendo has everything covered.

Super Mario Galaxy = My most anticipated game. Holy shit.

So many things to digest...

Most amazing jew boots

Yoshis Island 2 holy crap!

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Super Paper Mario!!!

Brand new Mario platformer for Nintendo GameCube with Paper Mario style graphics.

EDIT: man this thread isf ast

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Speaking of Matt IGN, he just revealed that Duck Hunt Wii is going to be revealed and playable tomorrow. Super Mario Galaxy will also be playable!

Capcom has also officially announced Resident Evil for Wii, but no details yet, hopefully it shows up in the next few days.

How ya doing, buddy?

$249 is actually the price that EGM speculates it will launch at, same with the virtual console games prices. Whether or not they have hidden info that backs up this speculation, is unknown.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Check this out guys, the Wii line - http://www.gamespot.com/pages/profil...iM2l2H65bsMuj4

6 hour wait to play Wii games! PS3 and Xbox 360 wait is just 5 minutes.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Pokemon Colossum uses 48 blocks! Ouch! That's why I've never played that game dispite having it since I got the console.

Pokemon Colloseum comes with a free memory card in the case.

FELIPE NO

Quote:

Exactly but they wouldn't do it unless they were absolutely sure Wii won't mess with their milionaire market share, leading me to thing that they've been performing market studies about Wii and the results haven't impressed them, thus allowing them to use the Wii as a pawn.

You don't know what you're talking about. YOU are exactly the reason they said that. It's so they wouldn't look desperate, and to the unknowledgable, it worked! You don't judge companies on words, you judge them on actions.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

To add to the injury, some "professional" had a say in Nintendo's plan, "Although the Wii will have a lot of features, the PS3 will still lead because it simply looks better in terms of graphics." What kind of F**ker is that? Hasn't she seen the DS?

A bit better, a bit more unbiased, but have a look at the "Best of E3"!! Assassin's Creed (PS3), Viva (Pinata), Crackdown (360) and Crysis (PC). They included Mario Galaxy and Spore, two games in which I would agree with but most of it were games to do with extreme violence. WTH!!!

The title is "Nintendo, Wii Love It"... But what's this? Only two paragraphs and a photo of Shiggy playing Steven Spielberg in Wii Sports? Bleh. And then the rest of it talks about the upcoming games on X360 and PS3, almost all of which are violent or "Mature".

Why so much bias? There were as much things to talk about in the Nintendo section as there were in Sony's and Microsoft's.

Yep, it's pretty obvious why though, Nintendo just doesn't have the marketing and presence here, while Sony and MS could get the front page just by opening their pockets. That's how the media works though. Sony could get shit in a paper bag advertised by almost every news outlet, Nintendo Australia can only afford to give away a free GBA SP in K-Zone.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
