Umm...what PS3 momentum?
Microsoft is making the same mistake they did last year. They are starting off the conference talking about multi-platform games. Sure they look great, but they'll look great on the PS3 and the 'Beem' as well. They should be starting off showing EXCLUSIVE Microsoft stuff.
Youtube on XBOX LIVE!! Epic win there!! NOW they got my attention.
I can't believe no one bothered to charge the controller before the show!
Put me on board for the NES 2 argument. That name makes the most sense. That or Ultra NES.
I agree.
Project Reality/Nintendo Ultra 64 - Nintendo 64
Nintendo Dolphin - Nintendo Gamecube
Nintendo Revolution - Nintendo Wii
Project Natal - Kinect
PlayStation Portable - PlayStation Vita
Project Cafe/Nintendo Stream - Nintendo Beem?
I guess it is a prerequisite to name consoles something stupid after coming up with a cool concept name for it at first. *SMH*
The only time I think a console wound ...
Is it a prerequisite now that you must come out with a ridiculous name for a new console in this day and age?
Nintendo Revolution - Nintendo Wii
Project Natal - Kinect
PlayStation Portable - Vita
Project Cafe - Beem?
I really, really, really, really, REALLY hope this is NOT the name, but I have a hunch that it is just because it is the stupidest name of all we have heard to this point.
Nintendo isn't selling out to anyone. The best time to buy Nintendo would have been back when Saturo Iwata took over as Nintendo of Japan president and when Reggie Fils-Aime was brought in to run Nintendo of America. Microsoft took a shot at it, Nintendo actually considered the offer, but obviously turned it down.
Right now Nintendo is too profitable as a company after the success of Wii and DS. It's like someone trying to buyout Microsoft after they released Win...
After all that has happened and still is happening to Sony NO ONE has a more 'bleak' outlook for E3 than them. For damage control purposes alone Sony needs to have the conference of their lives. Especially if Nintendo drops the bomb like everyone expects them to.
Microsoft actually can afford to bury another bad E3. Last year E3 was a hot mess for Microsoft and yet from the sales for the Kinect and the sales of the 360 because of Kinect you couldn't tell. Mi...
Yes, Microsoft is working on their new console but NO they will not unveil it. Microsoft instead is enhancing the capabilities of the 360 by increasing the amount of data that can be placed on the discs as well as enhancing the capabilities of the Kinect.
It would be disadvantageous to undermine all of that by announcing a new system that won't be ready for at least another 2 two years, maybe 3. Nintendo has been working on Cafe since the Wii came out and we are just ...
Yeah, I didn't see any of the intuitive 1-to-1 we were promised LAST YEAR at E3 in this demo. There was clearly waggle in there. Pass.
I'm with you on that one. Too old for this stuff. This game is 20 years too late. It might be fun for the kiddies, but I won't be playing it.
Honestly, Nintendo should name this system the 'STFU'. It seems like Nintendo is going out of their way to eliminate all the excuses people have whined and complained about for the past 15 years.
Even if this system only does half the stuff it is rumored to it is still a huge leap for Nintendo. If that still isn't enough for some people, well they basically have a bias towards Nintendo and the company should really care less about them. Those people are cheati...
I say just call it the Nintendo Entertainment System. If there was any system that qualified for having that name it is this one. I wouldn't mind calling it the NES again. Why not?
When people say 'winners' and 'losers' of E3 they mean whom made the best impression and who didn't. It doesn't necessarily translate into sales though.
For instance, last year Microsoft's conference was embarrassing to say the least and Kinect really wasn't received well at all. However since it's initial release the Kinect has been wildly successful for Microsoft. So much so that it has aided in helped Microsoft surpass Sony in overa...
~ I'll speak different when they release an original Zelda or bring back killer instinct ( hopint that's the new ip, heard it's been in development for sum time..although that same article said it was for kinect)~
Several problems with that.
For starters, Killer Instinct is not a NEW IP as it has already been out before. Next, 'Killer Instinct' is an intellectual property of Rareware LTD and belongs to them. Which means that if another K...
Bah. The link is not working anymore.
I don't know what people are complaining about. I guess some people just like to criticize everything. Since this is a reboot I wouldn't expect to see all the craziness from Tricky. Save that for the next game. This game has the feel of the original SSX game. The music is great. The special effects are great. The animations are great. It's a winner to me. Day one pick up.
Yeah. I've heard that Cafe would have a Quad Core processor running at 3.2 GHz. I'm just gonna leave it to Nintendo to tell us how powerful it is. But let me say this to the people constantly saying that the 720 and PS4 will run circles around Cafe'. The top 5 best selling systems of all time are.
PS2 - 150 mil
Nintendo DS - 146 mil
Gameboy/Color - 118 mil
Playstation - 102 mil
Nintendo Wii - 86 mil
What all tho...
The 'Truth and Accuracy' department called. They wanted it to be known that Nintendo WON E3 last year and there were no arguments against it. No intelligent ones anyway.
It is fair to say that no was expecting them to rule the day like they did so the element of surprise definitely worked out in their favor. This year everyone is expecting fireworks from Nintendo's E3 show so it could very easily be a let down with all the hype going in. I can almost guara...
I think the Kinect Fun Labs thing was pretty cool. But yeah, this was a 'meh' conference. Better than last year, but still 'meh.'
