I find Nintendo's comments on a female Link hilarious in their own right, but even more hilarious now that I see their booth is filled with girls dressed up as Link.

f'n lol
 
I think Jeff did a good job poking in at the Oculus problems. Palmer still seems to be taking a different lesson from the debacle than I was hoping he would but it is what it is.
 
Really liked that segment. Kasavin especially.

I hope Cowboy is on a segment, since he's friends with them he might just be hanging out.

I get that he was frustrated when making those comments on Reddit. But he also has to understand his role in hyping up what VR is and how his comments can be detrimental. I don't think he understands that.

i dunno man if i was a twenty three year old with a reddit account in charge of a company that everyone loved and then suddenly started hating i'd probably say some snarky stupid shit too. there's an honesty that i appriciate even if it's frustrating

Basically what Maiden Voyage said. I can sympathize with the pressure that being the figurehead for Oculus must bring, especially when things start to go wrong, but VR acceptance and excitement is such an uphill battle that you'd think he'd be a bit more conservative with the snark. Although I guess PR did finally get to him eventually.

It's way more formal...but the discussions are alot better as a result. It's obvious Jeff prefers this format over the chaos of the old style

True... We're getting some very good info from these guys. It just seems like such good potential for some interactions we don't normally see from the personality end of things. I guess that comes from me being a huge 1UP Yours fan back in the day.
 
So Phil Spencer is coming back to this year to talk to Jeff, huh? I was half expecting him to not after that one question Jeff threw on him last year but he always seemed like a cool guy.

That question was fine, people act like it was some sick burn but the atmosphere was normal at the time.

It wasn't that bad and honestly, Phil did a great job handling it. I came out of the situation with more respect for both of them.

Lol I know, right. A gif of it is even on this thread's OP last time I checked. People were all like DRAG HIM JEFF on both here and GB chat. It was just really unsettling seeing that narrative.
