E3 2011 Nintendo Press Conference Thread: What's in your coffee? [Over]

kaskade said:
So do you guys think they will announce a price cut for the 3ds because of the Vita, or will Nintendo just say fuck it?

If they have an awesome cafe showing, + a 3ds price cut they could kick some ass.

Whatever it is though, I'm excited.

I doubt they will cut the price just yet. I do think they overestimated the potential of 3D or had bad marketing but nothing's over yet. If they announce and release some good games it'll eventually pick-up and Nintendo said they will re-launch the 3DS sometime later this year. If it still sells slow after all that then they will cut the price.

Just my prediction.

Hold on to your butts, ladies and gentlemen
 
Sooo close. This last hour is going to be tough.... :\

Wouldn't a price cut right now just tick off the people that bought a 3DS during those couple months that it cost 250? Announcing an immediate one would be great for e3 hype, but I don't know if it would help them out that much. Around holiday, sure. I have an easier time imagining a bundled game though, at the same price.
 
Hmm, I should probably start fixing my food soon.

They won't even acknowledge the Vita's price at E3. They'll do a bundle this holiday with Super Mario or Mario Kart.

They won't cut the price now. If they do it would be much later in the year.
 
Someone in the Cafe thread asked for a slow connection stream.

Last night I watched Sony's conference with my smartphone and youtube was a bit choppy, but Gametrailers has a mobile stream that worked flawlessly. Maybe people with slow connections can use this too on their PCs
 
I predict an onslaught of 3DS software, literally nothing for Wii besides Skyward Sword and an hour of Cafe/Stream/Next Gen Console.
 
Don't tell me the Nintendo got Mark Rein and company on board. No way? Why would they announce something when everyone will be watching the nintendo presser

IF there's a price cut this year it will be toward holiday time. I think you guys are overestimating any damage Vita will do to 3DS. Two handhelds at $249. One's in 3D the other is more powerful. History doesn't always repeat itself but this really feels like PSP vs. DS all over again at this point. Vita will sell well out of the gate to early adopters and 3DS will be declared dead. Then the kids/casual market (which makes up the bulk of portable sales) will ultimately decide who wins and they don't give a shit about power, obviously.
 
I am so not ready for this. My body is trembling.

Starfox HD
F-Zero HD
Smash Bros HD
Metroid HD
Zelda HD
New Miyamoto IP HD
Pikmin HD
Mario HD
Retro Studios project HD

Gahhhhhhhhhhhhh......
 
I'm guessing Nintendo hasn't had leaks, because there is nothing to leak. Either that or they bolstered their already strong ninja forces.

I am convinced that the two super secret games in IGN's schedule are nintendo related

I thought they were Move related. Eh, I dunno. IGN hasn't gotten a Nintendo exclusive in ages, I doubt they will today.
 
Damn I'm hungover this morning! I need to go sweat it out!
 
Okay Nintendo, it's down to you

I haven't payed that much attention to the project cafe rumor cause most of what I read left in me a "WTF?" state of mind

DO NOT DISAPPOINT ME!
