...

I'd literally leave work early to update it as soon as possible, just in case they change their minds later.

Rollin deep into LA.
 
I also would really like to see something big from SquareEnix like FF:Crystal Bearers retooled with Crystal Tools or KHIII.
 
I'm waiting for that unknown light gun game that was mentioned, and possibly, maybe, unlikely a secret Capcom Wii title.

And yeah, they NEED to show off Crystal Bearers already. It's been way too damn long!
 
I'm kind of debating at the moment if I should buy a Wii or not so hopefully it is a good showing from Nintendo so I can justify it better if I go ahead. Personally, I think Animal Crossing is bilge and I have never quite understood the love for Kid Ikarus so I'm hoping that if either of those games shows up it is not a huge focus as say WiiFit was last year.

Barring a new Zelda game being announced, which I would expect next year rather than this year, a new 2D Metroid for WiiWare would be most excellent, but a new F-Zero and a proper StarFox made by a competent developer would also make me happy.
 
Man, this tread is moving pretty fast and it hasn't even begun.

Half-hour until the scheduled start, but since I have to leave for the doctor in an hour, I'm sure it won't start before that.

Lol, I think it probably takes multiple hours to propagate a new email to all users with nintendo's infrastructure.

That's because everyone is watching Nintendo.

Everyone is watching them because they have a history of doing the shittiest OR most insane conferences ever, depending on the year.
 
. . .If 1:1 isn't a megaton by it's self than I don't know what is. And thats info they released before their event! (To me FF was just. . .a confirmation that theres, as of right now, no 3rd party game for ME worth getting the PS3 for over the 360. Big butt hurt for sony and their fans as thats another "nail in the coffin" as the system wars people say)

Can't wait to see Wii Music on stage with a demo of it using 1:1.:D

Really, other than P-O!!!, Wii Music and AC I don't know what to expect.

(But 1:1 controls for a Wii LoZ is auto win for E3! Regardless of what else they show, thats more megaton to me than FF could ever be!)
 
Speaking for myself, Nintendo really needs to announce some new games today. It doesn't bother me when MS and Sony don't, because their offerings for this year are already really good. But I look at the '08 release list for Wii, and it's at least 90% shovelware.

I just need some assurance that Nintendo still cares about actual gamers, outside of Pikmin or Animal Crossing (which I do not care about).

Exactly. They're the big kahuna right now, the top dog. The mover and the shaker.

Also, their even E3's tend to kick ass hard.

The OP forgot to link to the GAF E3 channel:
Server: irc.globalgamers.net
Channel: #gaf-e3

Hrm...

...so the WFC channel has more users than all E3 channels together?

Which one is the correct one, by the way?

Also, I'm expecting more of a femtoton, to be honest. I don't trust Nintendo one bit.
 
Anyone an IGN insider and on the boards? Doesn't cassamassina normally do a hot or not thing which gives away at least one game we'll be seeing? Has he done it yet?

not this year.
Nintendo hate him and have filled him with false info

The screenshot above is from his PC.

See the Suicidewatch tab for proof

Meh. LoZ isn't an action series. The 3d games, especially, have all been rather easy, besides one or two harder locations, so 1:1 wouldn't add much.

If it is LoZ, it should be a spin-off, but (even though I dislike when people say this usually) I'd prefer if it were a new franchise.

Anyway, about old series, I'd like to see a new F-Zero, new Fire Emblem or Paper Mario (though I wouldn't complain about a RPG Mario game with Galaxy-style 3d graphics), the GC Kirby game or even a new DBZ Tenkaichi (Nintendo did show BT2 in the pre-launch Wii E3, so it's not without precedent).

The correct channel is in the OP, it's set +s.

Thats true. When was the last time Nintendo ever had just an O.K. conference. They're always very good or very bad.

They already announced it for 2008 :)

I'm excited over Pikmin 3, at least if it's really coming.

We'd compare his IQ to day-old mayonnaise, but that would be a grave insult to the poor condiment in question.

I'd take it to Vegas that we're going to see a Animal Crossing... but I don't know how I feel about that on the second DS.
