Embarrassing.

Embarrassing.

How so?

Actual passionate gamers showing passion is embarrassing?

Go play more CoD.

I can't argue against passion.

Is anyone? 2004 was a different time and the stars aligned for that kind of reaction.

That said, Smash still gets some big moments.

After Miyamoto dies there's gonna be no more recognizable (for mainstream gamers) Nintendo execs, gonna be interesting from a PR perspective.

Also, Nintendo just has to give their fans blue balls for each next-gen mainstream Zelda title for six years (four years in this video since the GameCube launch) and they'll get a huge reaction. Hard to gauge since these days people just pretend to react for clicks and Nintendo does all their reveals online now.

Bru....when Link jumps off the island in the TOTK trailer you tryin' to say that wasn't epic?

There wasn't an audience though.

There was a thread on here some time ago that showed people waiting in line just to play BoTW at E3. Someone even did the praise the sun meme. LOL. I wish I could find it and link you to it. It was Nintendo's only thing they had to show during that E3. So that has to count right? People waited for hours just to play that demo.

The only thing that'll get me out of my chair in hype for a Zelda trailer is a big-ass dungeon.

Not without Reggie and Miyamoto, they can't.

No because E3 is dead.

I'm not paying $100 for an Ape to eat bananas.

They don't need it anymore
Now they have a lot of unconditional love and funny faces on their characters

Is the question about generating hype or if they'll ever have a live show again?

I'd say yes to the first and no to the second. I mean, they literally just dumped the Switch 2 reveal trailer randomly on Youtube and got 17M views in like a day.

 

[SkylineRKR]

Trailer was nothing like the game though.

But it was 20 years ago, on stage with an audience. Won't come back.

No one is

This was legendary at the time and you just had to be there

This is what I wanted to answer with immediately. That trailer generated a lot of chatter, hype and drama.

 

[Neff]

There wasn't an audience though.

So the real question is 'Is Nintendo still capable of generating hype for audiences which aren't there?'

Pretty zen

It wasn't?

Willing but not able unfortunately

DAMN!!! it's the time to beat my Zelda collection on my WiiU.

 

[Hyet]

They are more than capable, just looks at Smash fighter reveals live reactions on their stores for example.

 

[L*][*N*K]

Nintendo doesn't do live audience anymore but we get hyped

 

[ADiTAR]

This was also a huge surprise:

 

[Instant_Classic]

DAMN!!! it's the time to beat my Zelda collection on my WiiU.

I was late to playing OoT, but eventually did on the collection.

Great game
