Halo killer is coming.

 

[ZombiePlatypus]

New IP is nice and all, but kind of a hard-sell for longtime fans when Majora's Mask 3DS and DQVII3DS haven't happened yet.

 

[AcademicSaucer]

Hold on gaf servers, dont fail us now

 

[HUELEN10]

God, treehouse is promoting the shit out of this! This is going to be good!

 

[Adam Prime]

Man I cannot wait to be dissapointed in about three minutes!

 

[soxinthebox]

That's an awful lot of purple lighting. I wonder if there will be two announcements tonight.

Purple 3DSXXXL

 

[Cbajd5]

is miyamoto gonna prove he can make a better halo than halo with a mother 3 translation included

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

Yeah they said they will go really in depth on the new IP tomorrow on the treehouse.

 

[Busaiku]

So glad it's not Majora's Mask.

 

[bobawesome]

No stream? What is this, 1995?

In-depth look at the game tomorrow on the Treehouse stream.

just came in to say this. and now it all makes sense. people are saying "why not stream the reveal" and this just answered it. Nintendo is (smartly) playing ball with the new sites.

Step 1
Have roundtable press-only premiere. Give the press time to write up and report on it.

Step 2
Public first hears about said title through the press. Screens, maybe some direct feed video, etc.

Step 3
Nintendo releases the title to the public on Treehouse Live

Everyone is happy. The press isn't left out in the cold from Nintendo streaming everything to the public directly.. at the same time we get more coverage on said thing than a 10 paragraph write up on it from the press after their "exclusive" reporting period of it that night.

Not bad actually. Everyone walks away happy.

No stream? What is this, 1995?

lol wut? Nintendo has been streaming the hell out of this E3.. see my theory right here. Nintendo isn't streaming it on purpose. You are meant to hear about it through the press first (aka throwing them a bone) and then can tune in for likely a 20-40 minute live stream of it tomorrow.

 

[thecouncil]

so where is this announcement steaming?

steaming? in the toilet. it's shit.

 

[Mik317]

hope it's that Mermaid Game people made up lol

 

[Willkiller]

Pleaseeeeeeee don't be NFC

 

[amnesiac]

Maybe two announcements?

 

[kurahador]

Tonight's thing is a new IP, Nintendo says. Clearly a JRPG

BOOM!!

 

[ignata]

Well, this isn't my opinion, but here goes:

I think many feel that Miyamoto has lost the edge that made him so good - many assert that Pikmin was his last good franchise, and that his most recent attempts have not lived up to the standard he set. Project Giant Robot and Project Guard were met with decidedly mixed reception - regardless of how early they are in development.

Furthermore, some see his influence as detrimental to the games he supervises, with the most common example being Paper Mario Sticker Star.

I've only really scratched the surface, but Miyamoto has received a fair amount of stick recently. Deserved? No idea.

I think this is a perfect summary. For me it includes Pikmin, but for most I think many consider that to be his last great game. I'd say it was Super Mario 64.

Edit: If it is a JRPG as Jason Schreier says, a JRPG from Miyamoto would totally pique my interest.

 

[CronoShot]

Well, that's significantly less exciting.

Not that I hate Miyamoto, but his work after Pikmin (especially on new IPs) has been kinda...well, hit and miss.

And why the hell did GAF just go down?

 

[Beelzebufo]

http://e3.nintendo.com/treehouse/

It won't be there tonight

 

[georly]

You guys killed nintendo world report

 

[gamergirly]

No stream? What is this, 1995?

They always do this with big games. Zelda and Star Fox might be the same next year

 

[vinnygambini]

Maybe two announcements?

I'll 1-UP you, maybe 3?

 

[18-Volt]

Please be a platforming game!

 

[Riki]

Well, that's significantly less exciting.

3DS Hype

 

[Rich!]

Not Majoras Mask?

Fuck. I'm going to bed. Not interested now, sigh.

 

[ArchedThunder]

how do you know?

They said it at the end of today's stream.

 

[Rebel Leader]

Here we go

 

[Touch fuzZy. get BizZay]

Yay Miyamoto. Can't wait to see what crazy idea this will be.

 

[Despera]

One minute to go....

excite!

 

[Neiteio]

GAF crashing nearly gave me a heart attack there for a second

Oh, that was just a temporary outage when they revealed WiiU-exclusive Dark Souls 3, Vanquish 2, Kid Icarus Uprising 2, and Metroid Prime 4.

 

[HeisenbergLannister]

Mixed Mario-tial Arts

DO IT!

 

[RPGCrazied]

Sure hope I don't have seller's remorse in a few minutes. No longer have a 3DS. Booo.

 

[Weiss]

Wanted Metroid or Majora's Mask, but whatever.

Just as long as it's an actual game.

 

[bobawesome]

It won't be there tonight

Well I feel like an idiot. I've been waiting with the page open for over an hour.

 

[catmario]

1 minutes remaining!!

Edit: Let's Go!

 

[BinaryPork2737]

It's failure won't be based on an arbitrary date, but rather it's library/offerings. I want more than just 90% of it's AAA lineup being Nintendo first party.b (At least nowhere near the amount of the DS).

The DS was a JRPG machine...and now, it's successor has a handful, in which half of them aren't even available in PAL territories.

Schreier can see into our minds.

[nintendork666]

Pumped for Miyamoto IP.

Have faith, people.

 

[DidntKnowJack]

T minus one minute.

 

[Mr. Bamboo]

Forgot to mute. That typing sound from NWR live blog gave me a fright XD.

 

[Kaljinyu]

NINTENDO DOWN RIGHT STOLE THIS E3

Nintendo played E3 like a drug dealer. Anyone can host a conference and come to us, Nintendo wants to make us come to them.

 

[PaperFlame]

No stream? What is this, 1995?

No it's actually 2014.

 

[Fey]

see u on the other side















bitches

 

[Relaxed Muscle]

BOOM!!

Maybe Sakaguchi saw that his mobile games sucked balls and went bak to JRPG.

 

[……forgetit]

I don't understand this, a new ip behind closed doors? Cool, too bad we can't see it.

 

[kyongwon]

its happening.gif

 

[ShinLuigi]

I think this is a perfect summary. For me it includes Pikmin, but for most I think many consider that to be his last great game. I'd say it was Super Mario 64.

Was he at all involved in the Galaxy games? I don't think anyone can say he's lost it if he had any significant input on them.

 

[enoki]

Tonight's thing is a new IP, Nintendo says. Clearly a JRPG

EDIT: JK? (It's probably not really a JRPG)

 

[Grief.exe]

No stream? What is this, 1995?

On treehouse tomorrow, round table only today.

 

[mid83]

I'm disappointed because Miyamoto makes it pretty unlikely that it's an RPG. Just my own opinion of course, but that's what I mostly want out of my portable consoles (Vita and 3DS), RPG's.

EDIT: God I hope I'm wrong, and that last Schreier tweet is getting me a little excited

 

[Qasiel]

Lets do this!!
