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

Reggie is just going to come out and say, "This year we are going to take a different approach to E3. There is not going to be any presentation. I'm just going to let you all sit there for an hour while I play HD Nintendo games on the big screen."

I've got myself firmly prepared for anti-hype. I'll negative-predict:

* Cafe is $499 USD
* Nintendo doesn't announce much for 3DS
* Nintendo spends at least 30 minutes showing waggle games for the Wii/Cafe ala Microsoft
* Nintendo shows Wii Zelda again but the controls are waggly and don't look good
* Cafe graphics are disappointing, lots of posts appear on GAF saying "N64 had better textures than this" and "PS2 level, I am disappoint"
* The only game shown that has not been shown before is Mario Cafe and a couple of Mii party game collections

PROVE ME WRONG NINTENDO

Okay. And this is me talking. Are you fucking high?

I dunno dude. I can't really see that happening, but if it is... Good job, Nintendo.
Why on earth wouldn't it? There was never anything to the "Epic hates Nintendo" nonsense beyond fanboy idiocy?
 
Nintendo can't honestly fulfill gaf's expectations. Since the last 24 hours, not only does Nintendo have to right all the wrongs they've done in the past 10 years, they also have to make up for what MS and Sony lacked.



I'm on the hype train, but pretty close to the emergency exits... ;)
 
I think Nintendo's smarter than having Retro's first HD be merely a DCKR sequel. They'll put them on either a new IP or a Metroid Prime title to wow the fuck out of everyone.
 
BTW, with Sakurai coming to the E3 and having tweeted a few days ago (yesterday?) that he wanted to show to the world the quality of the Japanese games, perhaps we might be seeing a new Smash Bros or some sort of demo for Cafe?.
Between this and something from Epic Games, plus all the Nintendo stuff like Mario and whatnot, this could be quite.. interesting.

Don't wanna get myself hyped though, so I'll expect some sort of "Wii Sports" title and the name of the console, and then them just saying we will see more during next year's E3.

The thing is, Nintendo's showing last year was really good and they have much more potential ammunition this year and even if THAT is lackluster, they have a brand new console to fall back on.

It might not be GODLY but it can't be poor.

With their position in the market right now, they pretty have to show as much stuff as they can.
 
Android users get the ustream app and go to the ustream link in the O.P. there will be a "open in app" link on that page. Stream is offline right now but should be working around showtime.

Nintendo's E3 booth.
They built a fucking fort around their booth.

That's enough to win E3 for me. Imagine if they pressed a button and the fortress rolled up ala IRON MAN 2 style into the Cafe.

I have a feeling that Retro will show Donkey Kong Country Returns 2 and it will look more than fantastic and people will be bummed out.
This would make ME happy. Also, if that tweet actually meant UE3+ show up on Cafe and/or 3DS, then that would be a pretty big hit for Epic, I'd think.

I think they're supposed to get Mac support some day, and maybe Android to match the iOS stuff.

The E3 Bear has left Sony's conference and is headed towards Nintendo's.

Do you think Kazooie is in that sack?
 
I predict it is called Nintendo Blue (a dream told me)

I predict a few HD Collections with Zelda OOT, WW and MM and another one for the three Metroid Prime's (logic tells me)

LETS DO IT!

I'd love for this thing to be $500. That price point would ensure it's way more powerful than 360/PS3.
It will cost $500... because it comes bundled with 4 expensive touchscreen controllers. the console itself is slightly more powerful than an SNES

Nintendo will save E3 from that pile of shit of conference that was Sony and Microsoft.
They will announce Versus 13, MGS HD remake collection, Skyward Sword HD, new Mario and Smash Bros, Super Street Fighter 4 Arcade and lots more on the "Nintendo" - yes that's what it will fucking be called because they will are going to revive core!
STFU and believe.

Yours, a believer who suffered through Sony and Microsoft Conference.
