raditts posted:

There has literally been nothing revealed about the NX besides "it is a thing that will exist at some point in the future and will play video games" but people on the internet are acting like they are the head of Nintendo R&D

basically, if you find yourself giving a poo poo about what some internet rando thinks they will or will not do, you need to stop and do something else

Given how bad WiiU has failed on the sales front it's pretty logical to assume they will want to move on as quick as they can, especially given how its known that something is in the pipeline and will be discussed next year. Last year's E3 felt like Nintendo was going to bust their balls to move systems via quality software and dig out of the low sales quagmire. This year did not give off that feeling. This just seems like the no man's land before "the next big thing" is announced. Whether true or not I dunno but that sure is the perception they gave off.

Hey, at least Mario Maker is going to own bones and give me infinite Super Mario World levels. Also, that box art is slick.

Truth. This alone should sell people on getting a Wii U. Why would you need any other system?

This is kind of like last year where I was confused as to why everybody was so happy with Nintendo, only now I'm confused as to why everybody's mad at Nintendo.

I'm in the same boat. Starfox looks like it's exactly what everyone's been asking for (pure SNES/64-style courses with no Kystal or lovely shipless sections), Mario Maker is now a day one purchase, and Mario & Luigi Paper Jam looks like a must-buy. The only part I was disappointed by was the fact that Federation Force/Blast Ball is Metroid branded, but even that looks kinda fun once you get past that. Are people really that salty about the lack of new game announcements? I figured having playable demos of games available in the next year is better than pre-rendered teasers of things that are years away.

I think that the Animal Crossing Amiibo game looks p cool but I wont be able to play it because I can't buy any of the Amiibo that I want. Has anyone got on their poo poo at this E3 about it?

The weirdest Pokemon game is that 3DS game they announced ages ago where Pikachu can talk and has a weird mocapped human face and he's a detective in the real world hunting Evil Pikablu or something? Like, I'm not making that up, right? What the gently caress happened to that game? What the gently caress WAS that game?


I still can't believe this isn't a thing you're making up and actually existed. Or almost existed. Or whatever.

The 3DS's resolution is so low that every 3DS game looks like poo poo when blown up for viewing on a device other than the 3DS itself. It looks exactly like they took Dream Team and Sticker Star's assets and stuck them in the same game.

I don't understand why an apology was warranted at all. Their E3 presentation was FINE! Yeah, it wasn't the most earth shattering thing of all time, but it was perfectly okay.

More like how sad that he has to apologize for not announcing a bunch of HD remakes, kickstarters, and for not re-affirming that a game in development for over 7 years still totally exists you guys now here's some pre-rendered "in-engine" footage for our games that won't be out until 2017.

true, but at least there was quick to apologize meaning this wasn't their plan B, it better then in 2008 after wii music someone ask Reggie where are the core games and he said "Dude you got animal crossing".I am glad Nintendo is a bit more humble then most multimillion dollar companies.

It's pretty clear that Nintendo is focusing their energy on the NX at this point and I would bet a ton of money (like $20) that the next Zelda is being made for it instead of the U.

Nintendo should make a game called Entitlement where your actions consist of crying, making online petitions, and harassing everyone involved with something you don't like, until they finally cave and appease you to stop the noise.

I saw them switch 1-1 from above ground to below ground, and there were several other options they could have chosen.

What purpose would there be in Nintendo lying about which platform their upcoming game is going to be on? At worst it'll be a twilight princess situation where there's a current gen and next gen version. But they gain nothing by lying to customers about what system their next Zelda title is going to be released for.

The game is also coming out next year and the NX definitely won't be.
Technically we don't even know if the NX is a home console, handheld, or some kind of weird combination of the two.

To sell more Wii U? I mean they have to repeat it won't be on the NX so people will buy a Wii U for Zelda, but lets say (and I don't really think it'll happen) there's actually a chance, a big chance everyone is aware of, for the game to be pushed back again and also be an NX title, they don't want people right now to think that's a possibility because they'd rather you buy a Wii U right now than find out there's a chance the game you want is coming out in two more years and it'll be available on another console you can also wait out on instead of giving them money right now.
