So what will be the Elijah Wood and Ice-T games.

 

[IdreamofHIME]

Deja Vu

 

[Panda Rin]

So this is basically Nintendo's Valkyria Chronicles. All the descriptions seem to point to that. third-person, steampunkish, cel-shaded graphics, turn-based.

really liking the sound of that.

 

[Azure J]

YO VALKRYIA CHRONICLES

NEED

 

[Salsa]

Intelligent Systems + 3DS = yes plz

 

[Admiral Snackbar]

And I thought Nintendo fans would be happy to see new IPs from Nintendo.

I'm stoked it's IntelSys! I've loved everything they've done! I will play this and enjoy it, I'm sure.

But I want Metroid more. I got my hopes up, that's on me.

 

[Shahadan]

Strategy? BOOOOOOO.

Booo yourself.

 

[Mr. Smiley]

All makes sense now.

It all comes together. Elijah Wood as MC?

 

[Amazeballs]

Cue people complaining of nintendo doing new IPs.

They've been doing that all week. "Where are my Metroid and F-Zero?"

 

[Hours Left]

People so quick to be disappointed without even fucking seeing anything besides 20 quick lines from a live blog.

Shake my fucking head...

Most people seem excited.

 

[Ibrahim]

Turn based strategy? No thank you.

 

[EmCeeGramr]

"it'll be a casual game!!"

actually it's a new turn based IP from the IntSys gods

"we already had like one from them!!!!"


hold that l, JC

 

[mid83]

Sounds like Xcom


I WANT IT

 

[Conrad Link]

Well, I didn't expect this at least.

I honestly thought it was gonna be 3DS Music or something NFC related. You know, something 'weird' in that regard.

Aren't these types of titles the ones they shove in the sizzle reel showing yea there's a new anime RPG whatever thing coming too that you'll love but we wanna show off Wii Party instead?

Seems weird they'd make a big deal over it, maybe cause of all the 'lol no new IP' comments they want to make sure people know this is a NEW NINTENDO THING.

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

Bless thee, Intelligent Systems.

And here I thought you were soon doomed to eShop games for eternity.

 

[Vecks]

holy crap, this is just getting weirder by the minute. Can't wait to see the treehouse stream on this tomorrow.

 

[ItWasMeantToBe19]

Finally, new Valkyria Chronicles

 

[Grief.exe]

@jasonschreier

Holy crap, this looks like Valkyria Chronicles

 

[scy]

Nintendo Valkyria Chronicles?

I'm okay with this.

 

[Mr. Tibbs]

This sounds awesome! Do we get to see the conference later?

 

[Unlucky]

Why does this plot sound familiar?

 

[Cuburt]

Intelligent Systems FTW

Easily one of my favorite studios at Nintendo. I've been hoping for new FE or Advanced Wars from them and this will likely scratch that itch.

 

[Toparaman]

I would laugh my ass off if this became the steampunk game of E3 instead of The Order.

[KxoZz]

daaaaaamn can't wait for Treehouse coverage now

 

[Oxn]

Welp...it's pretty much Valkyria Chronicles!!!

I thought they said new IP?

 

[Northeastmonk]

Didn't they already make a movie about this?

 

[Takeda Kenshi]

Can't wait to watch this on Nintendo's st(r)eam tomorrow.

 

[Wookieomg]

"Players will take command of the unit steam a unique fighting force created by Abraham Lincoln to defend against a mysterious invasion from space,"

Uh yes please. This is a game I didn't know I wanted. Well played Nintendo. Well played.

 

[Riposte]

This is straight up VC he is talking about. Awesome. I really want more games like that.

 

[enoki]

Sounds like the TPS elements will control like Kid Icarus: Uprising?

 

[LegendOfGood]

Does a GIF exist in which Fry is desperately trying to get his money back after realizing he has no shits to give? Because that's the one I need.

Best I got:

Gameplay switches to John, who stealths his way around looking for enemies. After his turn, the enemy bolts forward and attacks.

"This is, I think, because people have a timidity about turn-based strategy," Yamagami said.
6:16:25 PM PDT
"As you can tell from my history I have been working with IS for a long time and became a big fan of turn-based strategy, but I've always wanted to share these games with more people; this has been quite a challenge for me," Yamagami said.
6:16:12 PM PDT
A character named Henry dodges around what appears to be the city's streets. Monsters are everywhere.
6:15:51 PM PDT
"We like to start with how we came about getting the idea for this title," Yamagami said.
6:15:26 PM PDT
"Turn-based strategy, third-person shooter, steampunk ... Codename: S.T.E.A.M. is a quirky little title that came to be from a collusion of all of these elements," Patraschcu said.

Some giggles in the crowd as he mentions honest Abe.

"Players will take command of the unit steam a unique fighting force created by Abraham Lincoln to defend against a mysterious invasion from space," Yamagami said.

wtf? this sounds potentially awesome. wow...

 

[And_Gignac]

This turned out better than expected. Never played a SRPG in my life, though. Maybe this will be the first one

 

[Game-Biz]

First pic :

 

[Vyse The Legend]

Intelligent Systems + Abraham Lincoln? Day 1.

 

[Axass]

Neal Ronaghan:
third person perspective. you move during turns it seems

This is VC alright!

 

[Fey]

i am not happy

 

[Kimppis]

Abraham Lincoln in London... Wat?

Sounds promising tho.

 

[Easy_D]

Three save files confirnmed

Shit just got real

 

[Amikami]

"Players will take command of the unit steam a unique fighting force created by Abraham Lincoln to defend against a mysterious invasion from space,"

Well I'm sold.

This is enough to peak anyone's interest.

 

[Prax]

I am pretty sure I was the first one to think of the Valkyria Chronicles connection and I want credit. lol

Also because I always thought "I hate modernish things, but if IS made a Fire Emblem like VC in ways, then I would play it". This is perfect.

 

[Funkyhamster]

I want to freeze myself Cartman-style and wake up in Fall 2015.

 

[E92 M3]

Excellent this falls within my strategy game love. IS Wooooo

 

[Mauricio_Magus]

We Valkyria Chronicles now? FFFUUUCK I NEED A VIDEO!

 

[dragonlife]

All makes sense now.

Those cheeky bastards!

I wonder if Elijah Wood and Ice-T provide voice overs, then

 

[daydream]

Who needs Sega when we can have IntSys?

 

[Levyne]

I think I'm as sold as can be without seeing anything.

 

[SykoTech]

Lol at the thread title.

2015. The year of games.

 

[HawthorneKitty]

@jasonschreier

Holy crap, this looks like Valkyria Chronicles

hype I guess
