How Nintendo won E3, and why it probably doesn’t matter

Nintendo demonstrated over and over again that they are weird, wonderful, and paying close attention to what their audience wants.

They had the best presentation followed by Microsoft and then Sony, but it is the gamers who really won. A great E3 so far full of amazing games I want on each platform.

Nintendo finished 3rd imo, god awful presentation, shown 1 game in the first 20 mins lol, nothing for me what's so ever, I appreciate the under 10yrs will lap it up, but imo so many gamers over 11/16 yrs plus are playing there brothers xbone or ps4 and once they can afford there own consoles in yrs to come, ms and Sony will benefit from original wii gamers, you can already see the trend now.

What the double post? how does that even happen

randomass1714355d ago

N4G is acting strangely. I think it has to do with the higher traffic due to E3 stuff.

renerak4355d ago

I dont understand nintendo, all thier great games are releasing too late into the consoles life. If they advertised and marketed more i am sure right now there would have been more wii u than both ps4 and x1 combined. Nintendo needs to understand that the general public isn't smart they just go where the most hype is.

I would love to play zelda now. But I can not wait this long and then to be disappointed by a rushed game. The more polish time they have the better.

2015...so far away T_T

Hahaha it's officially a virus!

Nintendo made me rethink my stance on fighting as a Mii in Smash.
That's something impressive, as I had no real clue how it could be fun up until they showed me.

Sword Fighter Mii for life right here!

Also, that new look at Xenoblade?
HOOOOOOOOOLY CRAAAAAAAAAAP, that's some FF-level shit right there!
I'm REALLY looking forward to that game now!

Hyrule Warriors was just incredibly awesome all around.
Playing as Midna and Zelda is looking to be really fun, and I'm glad to see that they've kept the "bosses have weak points to exploit" mechanic despite this being a Dynasty Warrior's mash-up.
It adds a level of strategy that DW games don't have.
That's a big deal.

randomass1714355d ago

Agreed. Nintendo did much better than anyone expected, I think. Love me some Palutena action lol.

WPX4355d ago

God yes!! Palutena is quite the looker too!

U.S. patent examiner rejects Nintendo’s summoning characters patent as obvious: non-final ruling

The rejection is non-final (and even when such rejections are labeled as “final”, the process is far from over, given that there can be, at minimum, an appeal to the Federal Circuit).

Good, as they should! A game mechanic like that shouldn't be locked behind a patent, and Nintendo didn't invent it either.

PRIMORDUS41d ago (Edited 41d ago )

Nintendo wants to keep wasting money on bullshit lawsuits, real smart in this economy. They should put that money aside for other game projects. On the other hand, I don't care if they waste it all either, and they are screwed in the future maybe that will teach them a lesson.

Well dayum lol. Old agent orange pissing off every industry and nation.

0hMyGandhi66d ago

The fact that you have ANY disagrees will forever baffle me. And to the (apparent) MAGA contingent that exists on this website, enjoy your 8-9 dollar gas.

AuraAbjure66d ago (Edited 66d ago )

Yes, they had better be pissed after Trump told them the way they rip off the USA is over.

EveryPlatformGamer67d ago

LOL I read this on gaff, will they refund the money back to the gamers? highly unlikely. Didn't they just raise prices and pass it onto the gamers? Only Nintendo would send out the Ninjas to the US government.

-Foxtrot67d ago

That’s what I was thinking, imagine them winning hypothetically, getting a s**t load of money back which they would have lost if they hadn’t raised their prices and it’s business as normal.

It would just mean people paid more for no reason since they got the money back anyway.

Outside_ofthe_Box66d ago (Edited 66d ago )

A lot of companies partially passed the cost to consumers instead of all of it. They would still have to at least pay that back to gamers, but we know that won't happen. What's also sad is that prices won't come back down after the initial hike caused by tariffs.

People didn't understand the full repercussions of tariffs. That alone should have cost him the presidency if people knew it was a permanent price hike for consumers

Inverno67d ago

The people should sue these companies for having to over pay cause of these tariffs.

Eonjay67d ago

Naw they should sue the government for forcing the tax to begin with. No one reasonably expects these companies to absorb the taxes. Many smaller companies tried and were shut down or faced to increase prices to try to maintain their business. The tariffs effect everyone.

Inverno65d ago

I meant it mostly as a joke cause we all know the costs of these tariffs were passed onto the consumer. But it's seems no matter how vocal we are here in the states our "representatives" don't seem to care enough to represent us. And things are about to get worse.

Killer2020UK66d ago

The companies were doing what the law required then to do, the tariffs however were illegally implemented. Usually it's criminals we punish, you seem to have different ideas 🤷‍♂️
