If Nintendo finally announces the new Zelda (one that isn't a remake of Wind Waker) and a new Mario that isn't a remake or 2D NSMB style game, then the console will do a lot better.

Do people believe Super Mario 3D World is a remake of 3D Land? I never quite get that.

Yeah if that 2000 Space World demo was never shown, I wonder what the reaction would've been for WW.

I think where this is going is Nintendo focusing primarily on 3DS after their next fiscal year of Wii U software is wrapped up. I think Wii U support should be considered hooked up to an iron lung at this point.

If they had only had the 3DS this year it would have been a profitable year for them. The most logical next step is to scale back from Wii U and focus on what is actually bringing in money.

So no console Metroid game, huh?

I don't get it, the Wii U is going to have a DS back catalog but not the 3DS?

Yes but it doesn't matter because they're never going to actually do it.

Iwata getting canned would be amazing.

I like Iwata but the fact that the Wii U has been out for almost a year and a half I still don't understand why an entire back catalog of Nintendo games aren't available at the eShop. Let me play that poo poo on the Gamepad already.

The two friends I have that bought MK8 called it "Just another mario kart" and didn't feel all that excited about it, so I'm not sure if it's going to be the saviour of the Wii U that people expect.

The fact is not every Xbox One and PS4 release is going to get a PC release. So you're going to have to make a choice between PS4 and Xbox One for a good number of games. For example Kingdom hearts will never get a digital release on Steam unless hell freezes over.

And you can tout the Wii-U exclusives but they didn't bother to show all the excusive Atlus/Sega games that are coming to the PS3 and PS4. Sony's primary strength has always been the second and third parties and Atlus is a pretty big one.

I am looking forward towards Personal Q.

Yes, if you look at people desperate to spin it for Nintendo. If not, most are saying their conference was the same goddamn poo poo, but this time while ripping off others hand over fist, and desperatly buying up the utter dregs of titles killed off last gen as a last ditch effort to say "SEE? WE HAVE THIRD PARTY SUPPORT! WE'RE STILL COOL!"

For fucks sake, the big highlight that every fan talks about from Nintendos E3 is a game that would be put in the indie trailer reel for either of the other consoles.

I am on my phone. I am not scrolling this poo poo.
