flameboy Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Well it's just around the corner all kicks off on Monday, March 5 with: Continental Breakfast 8:30 - 10AM Miyamoto is doing a keynote speech, as is Phil Harrison of Sony and he confirmed on the 1up Show, that he will be making more than 1 announcement. So we can expect the same from Miyamoto whose speech is entitled "A Creative Vision", to perhaps make some announcements to, his speech is on Thursday, March 8, 2007 10:30 - 11:30 AM maybe a bit premature to start this thread now, but what do people think will be / want to be announced? Put your predictions in here. guess stuff can go in on here as it gets announced. I'd like to see Mario and Metroid dated, plus some news of the online service for the Wii (please something even if it is just a simple update for the address book). thats all really keeping my desires low key so if theres anything more I'll be pleasantly surprised.

Eenuh Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 I just want more news on Super Smash Brothers Brawl, some video, screens, maybe a date... A date for Mario would be nice too, but I'm more looking forward to SSBB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaijin von Snikbah Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Last year alot of Virtual Console info was revealed. And this year looks to be the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCK Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Though any news would be pretty good, I doubt Miyamoto will give us all that much. I wonder how Nintendo will replace their E3 show/press conference. I mean, they have to do something, don't they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Aonuma Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 i wouldnt expect too much screen or video related stuff from his speach. id expect to see alot of history related topics in terms of what nintendo has done over the years when creating video games.

LazyBoy Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 He'll get up there, say how innovation succeds, talk about the success of the Wii and DS, maybe hint to a new channel or two, then call it a day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 GDC don't really give much information to consumers, it's aimed at developers., we didn't really get anything at last years one from Iwata. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 I'm not really expecting much now, but I'm sure that as the date draws nearer, I'll get more excited about it (and then I'll be disappointed when it's just Miyamoto going on about how succesful the DS and Wii have been).

I know I wasn't expecting much either, but with E3 gone (know theres other shows ready to step up) so thought this could have taken more emphasis and just the fact that Sony plan to make some announcements.....

Now that you mention that, I think Miyamoto might reveal things about a plan to let indie developers release stuff on the Virtual Console. That would be quite interesting for us as well.

Teppo Holmqvist Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 I'm expecting for them to say at least the specs. Why? That the idiots can "discuss*" about them?

blender Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 My money (000000000.2p + £4 gamestation voucher) is on something innovative. Its a conference for game developers and so will be something to impress and inspire them. Wii health pack or Wii music or something uniquely wii. FAB new ideas for controller. Better be something.. X360 is might cheap now and PS3 launching here too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
