Lets wait to full translation on the app, i'm sure it will most likely be out this summer while Mario Kart starts selling

 

[Wario64]

I like that 'by end of fiscal year' is being taken to basically mean '11:59PM, March 31st, 2015'.

People are pessimistic

English release pdf is up!

dat 3rd party release schedule

 

[Pociask]

Can't wait till app is revealed to be a YouTube skin that cannot interact with the game itself.

@gibbogame

On IP licensing nothing to announce today but looking at joint agreement, limited profit so looking at non games usage

With Nintendo, the worst-case scenario is typically a safe bet

 

[StoopKid]

Why the fuck would it take them till the end of the fiscal year to get an app out.

WTF is taking so long. Nobody gonna give a shit about the Kart app if it's fucking months after the fact. That shit should be day and date with the MK8 release.

yea thats pretty dumb.

that MK8 app is useless if it cannot launch with the game seriously wtf

 

[Mango The Magician]

Guys, it says BY the end of the fiscal year, meaning anytime between Mario Kart 8 release and March 31, 2015.

 

[Gonzo The Great]

They've been talking about "regaining momentum" since early 2013. I don't know how the attendees can sit there for two hours without throwing up.

 

[Prometheus Zero]

Looking at this. Smash Brothers for Wii U *is* the holiday 2014 title. It has to be.

My gut is telling me Zelda will be spring 2015.. and maybe slip summer. I guess E3 will tell all.

 

[Isotope]

Thank goodness X is still 2014.

 

[Vanillalite]

It's as if Nintendo feels they have all the time in the world despite the fact that 3ds sale are slowing and nobody is buying a Wii U.

Yet they still are like we'll have that shit out sometime in the future.

I'd be raging as an investor wondering just WTF upper management is thinking.

Well, it may be at the last possible second, that's true.

Also, as it's Gibbogame, it's possible (unlikely) that he is mis-tweeting. Has happened before.

I'd love to see you make an app that hooks into a game and their online system to then edit and share videos etc. These things aren't "that" easy to do, hell even the Battlelog app for BF4 is atrocious atm.

Considering how the second update to the Wii U bootup speed has was supposed to release summer last year and has been pushed back to this summer this year, people have a right to be skeptical about their timing with ANY of this.

 

[Tripon]

dat 3rd party release schedule

See! Nintendo cares so much about indies, they put their releases in their own financial reports!

Man, that still floors me. Just shows how brutal 3rd party offerings are now on the Wii U.

Yay... non-games for my non-wearables.

 

[Hot Coldman]

@gibbogame

So... are they looking into "joint agreements", or did they already look into them and decide they led to limited profit?

Yeah, I cannot see it getting much use if it launches way after the fact.

 

[Vanillalite]

If that shit was ready for day and date release with MK8 like it should be they'd have fucking said so.

The fact that it isn't gonna be is a fucking joke.

Not sure to understand the quote sadly.

Will wait for translations

 

[rokero]

I want them to partner with Disney for almost everything

 

[DarkLinkage]

Pretty funny how everyone here, including me, wasn't expecting X to still be a 2014 release.

No, that update already launched.

Er what. Is this essentially NFC figurines?

Not enough hyperbole. But i agree, it should be there on launch day. Or better even before.

A figurine business?

The figures sound cool, hopefully they look good.

 

[Not]

We haven't had a console Zelda title outside of the holidays since Wind Waker, and that was only because of the U.S. delay. November 2015.

EDIT:

Non game is basically things like merchandise and that's about what was expected to come out of them licensing out their ips.

 

[DNAbro]

wait a mario figurine used across many games? wat? WHAT DOES IT MEAN???

@gibbogame 6:31 PM
NFP game and figures shown at E3, 3DS will also get IR NFP reader so figures can be used across WiiU and 3DS
