Mokong Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 After last nights 800+ posts in the PS3 disscussion in the 2hour Sony Conference (that must beat the Red Steel record) i thought it best to make a seperate thread for the Nintendo Confernce so the Wii Hardware thread is only about hardware disscussion. If you want to talk about the Nintendo conference (what you think will happen, any comments during the show, any views/impressions after the show) here is the place to do it. Remember show starts at 5:30pm UK/Ireland time Don't know where to watch? Here's a suggestion http://www.gamespot.com/pages/special_events/live.php?event=e32006 or http://www.gametrailers.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------- I'll go first, after last night i hope Nintendo come out guns a blazing, and can't wait to hear what kind of comments Reggie will come up with to counter Sony. Aside from "secrets" being revealed here's a few things i think might show up at the Nintendo show. Games (Video Trailers or people playing on stage) 1st Party Super Mario 128 Twilight Princess (i have a funny feeling we actually might see it Wii only and even further improved graphics and still be out for the Wii launch) Super Smash Bros. Wii Donkey Kong Wii Metriod Prime 3 (i think this could be the game the winner of that compo plays on stage) Wario Ware Wii Mario Sports games (Tennis, Baseball, Golf) Pokemon (in some form, maybe a Wii spin-off or even Diamond and Pearl for DS being revealed) And a number of new franchises 3rd Party: Red Steel Madden NFL Wii Tony Hawks FF:CC Sadness Raid over the River DS Dragon Quest Dragonball Z I have a feeling most of the above will prolly have there own slot with a member of the perspective developer on stage taking about it. Plus many more (and new games)
Hero-of-Time Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 Good idea about the thread just respell conference :wink: I want to see Nintendo come out and be unphased by Sonys controller. Mario and Smash Bros have to be shown and these 2 games alone will have me hyped up. The DS will be a main player showing Zelda and maybe even another Mario game, but the star of the DS show will no doubt be Pokemon. 3rd party wise I want to see something from Capcom and NiGHTS. Im telling you if NiGHTS is there on the Wii I may very well cry.
ndreamer Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 im wating for sega's titles (hopefully a new ip in there somewhere) capcoms title(s) (even if they just show video footage ill be happy) konami : i want them to just at least pledge full support this time and i want to see that luna rpg those stands look sweet. most of all i want to see new ip, big surprises and big name games hitting wii.
Waylander Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 I want to see a full gaming demonstration of what the Wii controller can do. I cant wait to see Nintendos conferance this evening.
Hero-of-Time Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 Oh yeah I also look forward to hearing about the VC aspect of the console. Hopefully they will give us a release date and price tonight aswell.
ThePigMarcher Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 Seriously hyped for todays event. As others have stated , seeing the Wiimote in full use is now a must (especially after last night) , further expansion of the Wi-Fi possibilities , and of course brand new examples of all our favourite franchises. Hope to also see this big secret (is it the controller speaker or not) , and the brand new IP that has been bandied about , and one last thing confirmation of a realistic/affordable launch price and a date of around September time would be nice too.
Mokong Posted May 9, 2006 Author Posted May 9, 2006 Good idea about the thread just respell conference :wink: ack, sorry...still tired, little sleep last night, and just home from a french exam in college (didn't go too well :p) I saw you mentioned Capcom and i suddenly got a feeling we'll see something from them today, prolly not an RE game, but i'm sure we''l see RE on the Wii before friday is over... i hope
gaggle64 Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 I can't wait. Thay've got a lot to talk about, and have always known how to hold a genuinly intresting confrence. I'll be away from my computer though, so I can't catch it live. Still just have to get it after.

Hero-of-Time Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 "Come writers and critics Who prophesize with your pen And keep your eyes wide The chance won't come again And don't speak too soon For the wheel's still in spin And there's no tellin' who That it's namin'. For the loser now Will be later to win For the times they are a-changin'." Man Im so hyped BRING IT SONY...JUST BRING IT!
... Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 Worm up!Its great to hear Reggies voice http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jRNn8eStfRM&search=reggie%20Nintendo Haha, Reggie fucking rocks, man! He's gonna kick some serious ass this afternoon.
MunKy Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 Reggie: "Dont worry people, I'm not gonna call Sony gimmicky and we arent gonna copy one of their ideas. Because they have none." "Tilt sensor? Oh yeah I played that Kirby game on GBA a few years back". Reggie had better crush them and hard!
Jimmy3000 Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 really looking forward to this, bring on the digs at sony! I dont think ill be posting here much durring the conferance as i was duirng the sony one, this needs my full attention, unless its as boring as the sony one =/
Hero-of-Time Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 http://www.xgaming.com/newsletter/may06a.shtml An interesting read if anyone has the time. Its all rumours and speculation but interesting none the less.

Its all rumours and speculation but interesting none the less. thats actually a pretty good read. I didnt understand half of it! the interface sound sounds pretty weird but cool, and that shell things looks HUGE!!
The3rdChildren Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 I'm at work for this and Microsoft's conferences. It is just not fair.
Shyguy Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 LOL AT THAT CHILD!!!!!!! man hes more mature than some of us :P
Der_tolle_Emil Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 I may have missed it; But is there any website or tv channel that broadcasts the conference?
arnold Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 2 Hours 15 minutes until Gaming history, I NEED to watch this COnfrence, I want to hear what Regi has to say about Sony if he does say Something, and I want to see soem names taken and soem asses kicked with the Controller and the wii in general.
Scorp Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 If they're not goin to kick ass, im goin to cry Been looking forward to this conference for about 2 months now, and with the "new" controller Sony showed us last night... they really gotta bring out the big guns! Nintendo FTW PS: I really, really hope that they have some kind of 3D fighter like Soul Calibur or Tekken.
