Man, like I don't even know how I should feel... All the potential in the world to say hey we're here and it wasn't even quarter realized... At least they have more events to do things at because if this was the only thing they had planned as an E3 presser, I really would find it hard to agree that they failed hardest, not in comparison to Microsoft & Sony but because everything it should have been was not there.

I'm not an anything fanboy, but seriously, seeing Ubisoft give the best conference...
I mean, I'm looking at my PC and seeing the future, honestly.
Liked the look of ZombiU, SMBU and Pikmin, but other than that, it just felt underwhelming... the pad has so much potential, but Nintendo failed to show it.
All three companies failed to WOW the crowd with an unexpected announcement. That's what E3 was all about and only Ubisoft delivered on that front. Hopefully there's more to come...

Each had some cool stuff but failed when they showed off Usher, Books, and Nintendoland.
Hal0 4, TLOU and Pikmin3 are all nice...but daaaaaamn

Should've had Pikmin 3 last. That was a terrible end.
Highlight of E3 so far

That bananas bit was hilarious
so disappointed in the conference, but I'm hoping they've got more via these stupid online things.

In my head I am all "STOP. TALKING. ABOUT. NINTENDOLAND. NO. ONE. CARES."
So they cut to WiiFit U.
Last gen I was PCWii. This gen, maybe just PC? Or 16-bit gaming, my SNES still works.

That didn't worth a single hour staying up. A single damn hour.
Nintendo, what the hell?

Pikmin 3 looked wonderful, so happy that the primary method of control is the Wiimote. The 3DS games looked really nice as well, NSMB2 &U look fun.
The rest, though....
I feel the same way but the thing is we know that they are keeping their cards close to their vest and that their studios are working on games but they didn't give us a taste of what is coming from EAD Tokyo, monolith soft, Retro Studios or anything. That is what makes me feel bad for them.
Ubisoft: A-
Microsoft: C+
EA: C-
Sony: D
Nintendo: F
Nintendo had this all wrapped up for themselves and they completely botched the whole thing, holy shit. And that's even WITH Pikmin 3 and New Super Mario Bros. U. What a disaster. The weird thing is that it seems like they do have at least some of the goods and just flat out decided not to focus on them and instead went with whatever the hell Nintendo Land is supposed to be.

I think it's safe to say Naughty Dog won E3
What a crock of SHIIIIIIIT!
MS and Sony handed E3 to Nintendo on a platter and even they fuck it up.
I think there's a hidden agenda from all three to push all of us back to PC gaming.
Also, i became abundantly clear that the HW is most likely on par with a 360 or PS3, even better!

Now I have no problem with people thinking this company has no focus for this console.
They showed me they are just grasping at straws, and the last time they were in that position they ended up with a GameCube.
I cannot believe how much that conference sucked. Pikmin is fucking awesome of course. And ZombiU could actually be interesting, but yikes.
Just fucking yikes.
Ubisoft had more games for Wii U than Nintendo? I didn´t count, but that´s how I felt.
Only Pikmin 3 is interesting for me. I was pretty sure I would buy Wii U after last years conference. I was just waiting for the new Nintendo games. Metroid, new IPs, F-zero, etc.
No Wii U for me with that line-up.

I hope someone got a screen grab of Adam Sessler (spelling?) with his head in his hands, right as Spike TV came out of Nintendo's conference.

He wasn't alone.
Are you guys still watching?
This is the best part.

willing to concede that nintendo lost just because i'm watching a guy play a game with his butt at this moment
I knew that Nintendo would make a big deal out of AC but I didn't think that would ALL they'd have. In a situation like this no one 'wins'.
And in typical E3 tradition I was going to make a big deal out of being right but you've taken the wind out of my sails.
That's very classy of you.

I can't believe Sony somehow finished with the best conference. Nintendo unveils a new console and shit the bed. How can you launch a console with just New Mario, Pikmin, Lego, and year old ports?
If they do have something up their sleeves I have no idea why they wouldn't show it now. Considering this console is supposedly releasing this fall, no?
Sony, MS and Nintendo blew this E3.

So worse than WiiMusic? I'm thinking yes.
I like how everyone talked about how new generations bring new IPs and ideas and all Nintendo could muster is a wii mario and ports.
The 3DS stuff, while more of the same, was still the best part of the conference. I have no idea what they are doing with wiiu. They hyped up games with that pre-show a couple days ago and then came out with nothing.
Good thing I only gave MS a D because this was an F. I'd like to give it a flat zero since there appears to be no effort for wiiu, but pikmin was a least a small bit of good.
