I guess 3DS and Wii U are done then next year.

Been a good run.

 

[Linkhero1]

Where's Retro? ((((

Most likely developing on the NX.

 

[Velcro Fly]

i feel like the developer story stuff could have been stuff they show on the treehouse

it really felt like they had NOTHING and they knew it.

so disappointing.

 

[Distresssss]

Can we please make the theme of this Direct, "No one asked for this?"


It fits really well.

 

[BFIB]

Nintendo just needs to stop with E3. They don't do a live show anymore, they do this "Nintendo Direct" thing. So disconnected.

Haven't touched my Wii U in months. Loved what I played, but I think its time for me and Nintendo to part ways.

 

[Majine]

Really bad game output. You can tell they are scraping the bottom of the barrel when they bring in the niche anime games.

 

[Poyunch]

Austin's too positive for the cynicism of GB. Beautiful Cinnamon Roll Too Good For This World, Too Pure.

But yeah, I'm disappointed too.

 

[alfredofroylan]

Do we even got a date for Fatal Frame?

 

[TreasureHunterG]

That was the worst Nintendo Direct/conference since 2008

It makes 2008 looks good, really.

Iwata needs to step down and Nintendo needs a change of direction.

 

[Jon]

I don't even know what to say. Very disappointing, not just compared to this year, but any year. Very strange.

 

[Captain_Wreckus]

Soo..trade in WII U to get PS4 and just have my 3DS as my nintendo machine...

or,

keep WII U just for Mario Maker.

 

[cireza]

Awful, as planned.

 

[-BLITZ-]

After 30 years, man, this press confferences felt like they remained in the 80's. Stuck in time *shivers*, Nothing modern, excluding Paper Mario & Yoshi.

 

[Always-honest]

So.... the NX has to be next year now right?

Can't wait to see what cheap components they were able to find this time.

 

[Randomizer]

Hard not to be disappointed with so little new games. Excited for Star Fox and Mario Tennis.

 

[bequietdrive]

That was awful.

Disappointed.

 

[JoeM86]

I exaggerate, but I was expecting more :/

It's not like it was bad, but it dragged in bits and didn't have enough reveals. They really should have used the Yoshi time for something else.

 

[ohyouagain]

Guys, please stay.


It might get worse.
Unbelievable.

 

[entremet]

This is what happens when you have dead console.

Why are people surprised?

 

[Beats]

Dunno if I even want to watch the Treehouse stuff. That was really awful.

 

[Hikami]

I liked it, would give it a B
people here had some unrealistic expectations

 

[RedNumberFive]

D-

Please see me after class.

 

[Anth0ny]

WELL THAT WAS FUCKING SHIT

Wii U is dead as fuck. At least every big team at Nintendo seems to be working on NX at this point. Hopefully that means there will be some cool stuff at launch.

 

[clay_ghost]

Well at least i can clear my backlog.


And buy a PS4.

 

[Mysterious]

Is the digital event just supposed to be a teaser for their real event later today? Serious question.

This was the real event.

 

[Aeriscloud]

I have never been so disappointed with Nintendo ever, this includes 08 and Fireworks.

What the fuck have they done?

 

[Beaniedude]

The mario rpg was cool.

They were really pushing the Super Mario Maker thing.

 

[NotDreamcast]

uh well

at least paper mario x mario & luigi looked alright

 

[Floridian]

Not one megaton. Not one game that made me go "Day 1". Amiibo content that is irrelevant to me. Developer Stories that could have been saved for another day. Mostly handheld games covered. 1/10. Compared to last year, it was a huge FLOP.

 

[NZerker12]

3/10. I think Square did Nintendo a favour, because if they had gone with their original time there would be no one left watching Nintendo's. Sheesh

 

[Phediuk]

Literally worse than EA holy shit.

 

[Vashetti]

That was... it?

It was like 20 minutes long.

 

[Roo]

They did good on the 3DS front, me thinks.
Wii U on the other hand....

 

[ExpressGalaxy]

"Buy our action figures" - Nintendo 2015

 

[Ninjimbo]

Man, you guys are brutal lol.

I thought it was fine.

 

[.J.]

I'm really shocked that they announced most of this stuff.

The Paper Mario / Mario & Luigi crossover interested me, just because I love those games, and I started getting a little excited about Super Mario Maker there toward the end, but ouch...

It's 2015--you really shouldn't be making video board games and branded games without the actual protagonist people want to play as when you're up agains the wall in the way that Nintendo's has been in the last few years.

 

[offshore]

Well, on the plus side, this can surely only mean that E3 2016 will be an amazing one for Ninty.

 

[MrSaturn99]

don't be crazy. It was just bad relative to every other conference this year. No way this reached anywhere near '08 quality horrendousness (although the backstabbing of Metroid and Animal Crossing is incredibly disappointing)

Pretty much. It was a very mixed conference IMO but you're crazy if you think it's on the levels of 08 or 12.

 

[amnesiac]

Honestly considering selling my Wii U and getting a PS4 after watching this

what a fucking joke

 

[PfantzyPantz]

I would have never imagined that even the Microsoft conference would appeal to me much more than Nintendo, man.

 

[dampflokfreund]

Wow that was downright awful.

WiiU is pretty much dead. 3DS has atleast a brand new Mario RPG.

 

[rjinaz]

Nothing here interested me except Starfox and FE. Xenoblade is out in Japan so basically I didn't need to see that. The date was nice though. Otherwise, yeah, not impressed at all. 4/10. See you next year Nintendo with the NX.

 

[Spruce]

I thought the puppets were great.

 

[ExVicis]

For Nintendo.

Sony gave me enough hype to get through this.

 

[Korosenai]

I've never felt this much disappointment.

 

[Discomurf]

NX launching in 2016 confirmed

 

[orioto]

Well let's see the good thing in all that. They are clearly hard at work on the NX!

 

[El Topo]

That was one of the most disappointing things I've ever been subjected to during an E3, at least others E3 missteps have been unintentionally hilarious, but that was just a non-event.

It was definitely unintentionally hilarious. At some point it got so bad, I couldn't help but start laughing.

 

[Party Popper]

Boooooh Nintendo, boooooooh

 

[GregLombardi]

C-. At best. They just hinted at some other announcement though.
