Is the E3.Nintendo page solid black for anyone else too? I checked the source code, and it looks like there's stuff, but I can't see anything but pure blackness, both on Safari and Firefox.

It looks fine to me.

You can use the browser to watch various streams. Or wait until it's done like some kind of loser and watch it on the e-shop.

Speaking of which, do you think Mario Maker is going to get a "and it's available now on Nintendo e-Shop"?

So is there any way at all that I can get my prior eShop purchases to register with Club Nintendo? I might have jumped the gun on a certain game with a certain promotion that would have given me another game for free that I would have liked to have, and it's kind of stupid that I can register a physical game whenever but a downloaded game never.

Almost definitely. Both Microsoft and Sony have had their own AND IT'S AVAILABLE NOW!! so I'm almost expecting Nintendo to pull that, too.

(gently caress spoilers)

It's not a re-release. The time article showed three Miyamoto games - "Project Guard", "Project Giant Robot" and this Star Fox game, and the accompanying Miyamoto interview implied that they might end up being included as part of the same package, or released as an episodic series, or something. He also says Star Fox is at least a year out.

Well, it's visually similar, and Falco's line is actually straight from SF64.

But many have already said that it is in fact NOT a re-release sooooooo I'm sorry for putting that out there.

Weird. It's not like they're competing against any big names post-Nintendo Direct. According to the schedule, all they're up against is "Deep Silver Mystery Game" and the new Dragon Age.

I can remember Miyamoto talking about a giant robot game all the way back in like 1998. He wanted to make a game where 4 players all control different parts of the robot. I wonder if this is the same idea.

No, they didn't. They said that they were showing an exclusive game. That could mean exclusive to Wii U or 3DS, or it could mean an exclusive look by IGN, but it's not going to be something unannounced.
