I agree it won't be used by Nintendo for normal games, but didn't you see the rest of the conference? How can you claim it doesn't make hardcore games anymore?

It was him at the end of Fusion.

Hows this any different than Wiimote with wm+, and why is it only now interesting?

Play.com changes the price to euros which is about 10€ for each game, any other British retailer that doesn't convert prices is cheaper.

People "hate" it because Rare didn't end it. The shoehorned Starfox version of the game hyped up the scales dude as the main boss, but at the end "fuck off, here's Andross!". I really liked the game though.

You're talking about the MMO right? Its on the PC too. I can see it eventually ending up on 360. People should realise there's no such thing as third party exclusives.

And that's why I don't care much for the 360, many of its exclusives end up on the PC.

Agreed. But that rarely is the case. I don't know if it is better than a Wiimote with wm+. Seems equal if not more limiting. That natal complaint of not having anything to grab is really a non-issue as it has that scan object function and everything could be scan to be, for example, a wheel, even a plank you could hold sideways like Wiimote. The problem with natal will be its precision and understanding of the environment surrounding the player. We saw that two hours earlier, being on the knees has nothing to do with it. The Eyetoy dudes just made it look more impressive by applying some physics. They're very good at selling their technology, as always. They all seemed very equal, but being a fanboy I can't help but to feel more excited about Nintendo's offerings, that were actual surprises. Who cares? That's the whole point! To show what's new and appealing, and incite gamers beyond what they previously knew. The motion controllers were a 50/50 chance, nobody would be surprised if they didn't show them either, but I did like the dudes showing it. FF14 is not an exclusive, and I'll admit Modracers is cool even though I don't care for it, but that's just me , I don't care much for Mario Kart or racers either. And this is hardly a Nintendo board anymore. I'd love that tech associated to the Pokemon brand.

What euphoria?! They talked 1 hour about Uncharted and then a lot about MAG, talked about the PSP Go which quite frankly is the same system it was before that plays the same home console games you don't want on a portable, and then it picked up with the motion sensing, Trico, and GoW3. Trico would have been awesome had it not been a leaked footage and that was basically the big problem with Sony's conference, there was barely anything surprising, you knew most of the games, even the trailers.

I never denied my fanboyish ways. But I never have a problem admitting I like a game from the competition. And graphical improvement is hardly innovative.

About the same time they became the underdog. Can someone explain to me what did they show for the PSP Go that's so radically different from what they had before?

I've just watched some Ninja Gaiden footage, and it completely explains the footage they showed. Its really fast paced and frantic, just surprised they're doing this with Metroid instead of Zelda.

Hahaha, the japs playing it are having a great time.

And they don't blank, they're being money hatted by the competition.

You think wrong then, I was going to say "I expected a price drop" but wasn't sure if they had announced it. And the conference was so damn loooooonng, I think it showed many interesting games but they could have shortened them a bit. And lets be honest, nobody cares for the PSP.

I really need to watch some Ninja Gaiden gameplay to understand this.

No reason to buy it without a game. I believe its 50£ for Wii Sports Resort with wm+.

The Eyetoy engineers always did great tech demos, way more impressive than Nintendo. But the truth is, if a game requires two light batons, you can use two wiimotes, obviously the nunchuck+ will be the next step as it allows 4 players instead of 2 with 4 wiimotes. I want to see what happens to multiplayer games with this tech. GanePark, I believe this batons also have some motion sensing stuff inside them, you can't detect pitch with just a light source.

Nop, Wii + DS + PC is where its at. I have been tempted by the PS3 before E3 and there wasn't much there to push me over. Did they announce a price drop?

You're probably right. I bet he feels it should be played in the same room and used this as less than subtle "fuck you".

He's not a guy to talk about console power, maybe it does something different?

Haha, nicely done Miyamoto, love the carrot metaphor.

^I've seen the future, and it has facial hair. Miyamoto is not amused by the MS and Sony's efforts.

Link with a beard.

Back, lost part of my internet connection (couldn't access some sites like N-E). I expected the conference to be less redundant.
