Posted June 2, 2012 So the conference and the software showcase isn't enought to show the goods? Oh lord.... We're either up for something incredible or Nintendo know about ms or/and Sony and trying to damage control. (the rumoured tablet support for 360 or vita play for ps3). So final form and maybe Nintendo network tomorrow, games on Wednesday. So what are they actually talking about in their conference! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 2, 2012 SO HYPED! This Nintendo Direct is going to be in English, right???? Or Japanese seeing it's on the JP site? And it says 11pm GMT, so I am guessing that is actually midnight?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 3, 2012 SO HYPED! This Nintendo Direct is going to be in English, right???? Or Japanese seeing it's on the JP site? And it says 11pm GMT, so I am guessing that is actually midnight?? I'm actually not hearing anything about a Japanese Nintendo Direct which is weird, so chances are it'll be a mix of English and Japanese with subtitles.

Posted June 3, 2012 I'm not usually hyped for E3, but somehow I feel different this year. Which is terrible because I have a presentation on Monday and then exams. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 3, 2012 (edited) What in the unholy fuck!?!?!?!? WHAT!? WHY!? I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE ON AN E3 BLACKOUT! What the hell happens to my E3 prediction Bingo card now!? (does it still count for things that are outside the press conference!?) What the hell do they need a THIRD SHOW for!? This is AWESOME! :D Lol, Sony and MS must be PISSED (they're like, hey let's go first this time to steal the attention away from Wii U - Nintendo: "SURPRISE!" ) Maybe this is how it's gonna work? Sunday - Nintendo Direct focusing on hardware, show off new console/controller design and features (so that 3rd party conferences can show off their games without issue) Monday - 3rd party press conferences with Wii U games Tuesday - Press conference (Wii U first party software with probably some third party), website will probably be updated after conference with even more games/info, developer discussion with Katsuya Eguchi. Wednesday - Software showcase (All 1st & 3rd party games - including 3DS stuff) Edited June 3, 2012 by Dcubed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 3, 2012 Well if they have done things properly for the Wii U, they will have a lot to say about the system itself. Not particularly about what the system can mechanically do but the services, such as how online will work (1st party and 3rd party probably), all the netflix and possible tv services, the new video chat functions and so on. If anything, these services are one of the biggest differentiators next to a games line up. And now I'm going to have to watch those smug fests that are the Ubi and EA conferences! DAMN YOU WHEATON!

Posted June 3, 2012 We're either up for something incredible or Nintendo know about ms or/and Sony and trying to damage control. (the rumoured tablet support for 360 or vita play for ps3). Any peripheral at this time for Xbox 360 or PS3 will be a commercial failure - it will not hit the stores until Winter with few games and give only a few months until their new hardware launches, rumoured in 2013. I have no doubt that both Sony and Microsoft will be leveraging their brands in the mobile space with more features in their apps, but I fail to see any major developments in their home consoles this year. This conference is simple blanket coverage, I think DCube has it right; WiiU will be fully announced tonight, the vast majority of hardware features will be announced but with few, if any, games. Tomorrow, third party publishers are free to discuss their WiiU games openly and without fear of NDA. Tuesday will be about Nintendos games over its platforms, hardware launch recap etc with Wednesday tying everything together - first and third party. This is FOUR DAYS of coverage for WiiU, a real event. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
