TVGB: "If you’d asked me back in December, I’d have told you that E3 2012 had the potential to be the biggest in show history. Not only were rumors pointing towards both the PS3 and 360 successors getting their much-anticipated debuts, but Nintendo were to finally shed more light on the Wii U, while this looked to finally be the year that Valve lifted the lid on Half-Life 3."
FuRyu revealed on Friday its Exstetra fantasy role-playing game is getting an HD remaster that will launch this summer on Steam.
The Wii is now a retro console. Let’s get nostalgic about an often maligned system.
Crazy to think the WII is to the Switch 2, as the NES was to the WII back then. 20 Year difference.
My wife asks me to bust it out (heh) everyone once in a while to play bowling and tennis with the kids. There was a ton of slop on it but some good stuff as well.
Wii was great but boy howdy did it cause Microsoft to go on a dark walk with the Kinect and the disastrous XBox One launch that they arguably never recovered from.
Not nostalgic for me.. I was there.. anyone who wasnt a little kid realized it was a gamecube with shit tacked onto it, it was the "joke" system and was well below even the switch in terms of comparing it to the latest machines at the time. The machine was well loved by young people and "casual gamers" who now remember it 20 years on, or in most cases more of its sales came in the 15-20 years ago range not right at launch- but again its not nostalgic for people who were "gamers" then really, just for those who ended up with one in their house, the games , graphics, interface and online features were archaic already in 2006.
New Chrono Trigger Form-ism figures of Crono and Marle have been showcased at a Square Enix pop-up store, with pre-orders expected soon.
Nintendo save E3? LOL. Sony's already got that covered (while also saving the core gamer market too).
Whoa whoa whoa, I agree that Nintendo has the highest chance of "winning" E3, but why just automatically assume Sony will have a bad conference?
Doubts for Microsoft's I could understand. And yes, a lot of Sony's E3 content gets announced or leaked before E3, but their conferences have never been actually "bad" (minus 06 lol.) They always have TONS of content at their conferences.
Article fails to explain why gaming is in danger, why Sony and Microsoft can't or won't face the phantom threat, and what Nintendo can and/or will do in their stead.
In that respect the article fails, because it has nothing to do with its title.
Nah, a current Gen powered device that'll mostly gets ports from systems that have a much higher number on installed base, from a company that doesn't have a clue how a well working online environment like psn or xbl is made?
Yes, I am extremely excited to see what Nintendo has to offer especially what games will launch alongside the WiiU. On the other hand the Nintendo showing is somewhat predictable, whereas on Microsoft and Sony's side the stars are the limits...PS4 or Xbox 720?
IMHO the reason I watch E3 religiously each year is because of Sony, year on year they have impressed me with what they have to offer, they like the gift that keeps on giving. So here is hopefully to another great showing by Sony come June 4th.
