4 Things Nintendo Should Avoid Doing At E3 2011

Geek Revolt writes "E3 is a week away and everyone is talking about how Nintendo can “win”. Instead of talking about what they need to do, let’s talk about what they shouldn’t do. Here are four things Nintendo should avoid doing at E3 2011."

How about if they just give us grown up stuff.

AdvanceWarsSgt5448d ago

You wouldn't buy it anyway as you never owned nor intended to buy a Nintendo product in the first place.

ChickeyCantor5448d ago

" grown up stuff."

Congrats you just made yourself sound like a Teenager

AWBrawler5448d ago

now i see why you have one bubble

jacksonmichael5446d ago

Hehe, yeah, he can't even continue to annoy us. :)

AdvanceWarsSgt5448d ago

I'm not even sure if they did #1 since E3 2008, so I think that's a non issue.

#2 is a legit concern, but considering they didn't completely ignore the DS last E3 even with the announcement of the 3DS, they more than likely will show the Wii some love as well.

#3 is an iffy. I mean, I know Nintendo is trying to appeal to "hardcore" gamers, so it would be wise if they showed a majority of 3rd party games. But, 1st party titles are the system sellers of Nintendo consoles, so we'll have to see.

Again, #4 has been a non-issue since E3 2008, so I don't believe it should be much of a concern.

I'd swap #1 with "Demonstrating a motion-controlled game on stage" as last year's TLoZ showing was disastrous, and #4 with "Not announcing the localization of Xenoblade and The Last Story for the US" as that would pretty much kill any remaining interest I have in the Wii.

jacksonmichael5446d ago

Excellent points, but I would have mentioned that they will likely do well with #3, seeing how they handled the E3 prior to the 3DS launch, and my localization list would have included Dragon Quest 25th and Earth Seeker. Oh, and Pandora's Tower.

Raven_Nomad5448d ago

I think they should talk up the numbers a bit, I mean it doesn't hurt to discuss how you destroyed the competition for five minutes or so.

Nintendo had the best conference last E3 IMHO and they almost always have a lot going on.

I hope they taught the power to their new console to rub it in a bit, also I hope they lower the price on the 3DS, I have a feeling we will be seeing a $199 3DS going up against a $299 and $349 Vita.

Heres to a good E3 Nintendo!

StitchJones5448d ago

Announce everything days before showing it at E3? Like everyone else does?

L6RD7BLU35448d ago

Who doesn't brag about sales, just saying. But anyway this years E3 is going to be BANG'N :)

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.

PRIMORDUS29d ago (Edited 29d 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.

0hMyGandhi54d 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.

AuraAbjure54d ago (Edited 54d ago )

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

EveryPlatformGamer55d 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.

-Foxtrot55d 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_Box54d ago (Edited 54d 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

Inverno55d ago

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

Eonjay55d 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.

Inverno53d 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.

Killer2020UK53d 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 🤷‍♂️
