Is it only an hour? For some reason I thought it was longer, hopefully E3 will have some longer ones, best thing about conferences is hooking up a computer to a tv and sitting around with snacks watching stuff happen and the internet flipping out.
Lol, is there a reason behind them doing it? Isn't the "only on xbox" just the lead up like the Kazification of avatars before the PS4 announcement, is there some secret Nintendo thing going on?

Outwardly its impossible to tell though.
This has huge potential for context senstive functions. It could be the menu during standard play, etc. but if you open a text field, the screen could transform to a Swype-input full qwerty keypad. Yes please! No more clumsy analog stick navigated keyboards...
Where is your source because from what I can tell 8GB is around $150.
Nintendo direct. Hardly warrants hype and it's not exactly original on their part.

Really, Nintendo fans on here started the themed company avatars leading up to a presentation with Reggie avatars, then Kaz, then only on Xbox.

Nintendo fans in a nutshell though. They are a different breed of gamer.

No idea why they're doing it. Insecurity perhaps. The Only On Xbox thing happened organically in the Nostalgia thread. That's why it works.

We have one more spot for the aftershow if anyone is interested. Going to have 10 of us!
I have this amazing feeling its going to be a wild discussion about hype busting and hype beating. If you are interested PM me so I can get you added to the roster.
10 Neogaffers enter...no one leaves!

Righto. But wait...who is doing this?
Nvidia/AMD manufacturing cost studies including high end GPUs. It would have been $120-$150 a good year ago. Most likely cheaper now.
4x 2GB @ $30 = $120

That's no way to get people to join. May I suggest, 10 Gaffers enter...everyone gets pie.
I'd guess many of us in here are.
Oh... So people totally forgot that GAF did avatar theming back in the early 2000s?

I was only here for a short while. If people were doing it for so long I don't get why it's upsetting Nintendo fans are doing these kinds of avatars now.

HAhahaha. God damn it you make me laugh.
As for Nintendo and MS...oh AND Sony. Count me in.
Also count me in for the TurboGraphix 16, Sega as well.
It's obviously reactionary (and amusing at the same time)
Now now. Don't put all of us under a single banner.

I really hope theirs a keyboard attachment at launch.Man, now I kind of want them to have an Smartphone like Controller. The controller should be made with two things in mind.
1-Managing Apps. (A touch pad like Sony's should work well with zooming and scrolling etc...)
2-Current games. I don't care about Gamepads that barely get any use in today's games, focus in improving triggers, buttons, analogs and form factor to be a pleasure to play games.
Also don't get rid of this.
.
It fits nicely and gives a neat weight to the controller, just improve the keys and rearrange them in a way that works.

You should consider that Imitation is the most acceptable part of Worship, and that the Gods had much rather Mankind should Resemble, than Flatter them.

I guess they could also put "Not on Youtube"
I am of course kidding. I am, as I said, a fan of them all.

Bro fist between Statham and Mattrick. Agreed completely. Still the best addon I have bought for a system.

Oh I don't mean it as an insult. I just mean that there's Xbox/PS3 fans, who pretty much act the same way, then there's Nintendo fans which are pretty much detached.
One of my favorite peripherals for my xbox 360. But I would still prefer this built into the controller:

Yes, the trends inspired others. Similar to Kaz avatars inspiring Ballmer and Don avatars and gifs, I just don't see how it's sad, stealing or a sign of insecurity.

Agreed and far before the Kaz avatars. Its been done for years. Everyone is just funnen.

Cease
STAHP. No! Hahahaha
Thank you. I don't want to be paying 100 bucks for a controller man. I have rage issues. It would be 400 bucks a year easy...or I could stop throwing them...but no. Rage.

Maybe a separate Pro-Media controller? The controller with keyboard will scare casuals.
If that's what they wanna do fair play, I just thought it was amusing. The Kaz/Only on Xbox thing seems very nautral and fitting for such big events. It does look like they're jumping on board (for what is a minor event).
I mean in general you can't help but think a lot of sole nintendo fans are envious right now.

So are we going to see the new controller any time now? PS4 PSVita every game confirmed... Makes me believe MS might have Touch or even Touch Screen on a controller? Yes, No?

Man, all I want is one megaton from this event. Even something like MGS V Durango exclusive (next gen version) would be mind blowing! Gaf would be down for the entire day lol
Found that ironic.

Ya, he told me that around July 2012. We shall see. He told me in 2011 that it would come out 2013. 4 days away until annoucement and he makes my sites thread look good!
I hope.

Thank god we have boogie here to tell us how wrong everything we say, think, and do is. A rather sharp contrast to how he acts in Sony threads. Glad he's here to chaperon us though. We wouldn't want to get too hyped or excited in a new console reveal thread. Wouldnt want that.
Surprising!

Halo still has the best local splitscreen co-op around. My friends are getting together for some pre-megaton hype play on Sunday. Can't wait for dat Slayer.
I dunno dude, I think he may be a Sony console fan or something.

People talk of all these possible megatons, but the best megaton IMO, is the fact that the next generation is being unveiled in the first place. Imagine, in just 5 days, we will see the message Microsoft has for next gen. Whether they deliver or not will not be decided then.
Really??? I'd never have guessed! #Megaton
Mm, remember that 'solid' rumour that one of the big 3 was exiting?
I swear you can't believe anything on the internet until it's confirmed, we never learn tho.

It's more like the NFL/NBA draft. You won't know for at least a year how they did.
