Really, trully. I started just watching hockey in 96 after the Avalanche won the cup. I knew most of the rules by 1997. Not really complicated compared to football in terms of rules. Much easier to learn.

I'd let them fight me.
I am burnt on most games, and it's happening to me a lot faster than I thought. However I still find stuff I like. Wii U has the best games so far, and right now I think Donkey Kong is my favorite game this gen, I almost cried when I beat that shit (it's that good). I have also clocked like 40hrs into Fire Emblem, and plan on buying the new 3DS Zelda when I want something else to play on it. I think if a person likes the 3DS then they'll like the Wii U.
Nintendo was totally right about what they said imo. Somewhere down the line the jumps will hardly be that noticeable. They shat the bed when it came to selling the Wii U though. That said, I am no graphics whore, but watching that Witcher 3 trailer on my 1080p monitor was stunning. That trailer is in the top tier of video game trailers.

It looks good.
How well will it play? Will the gameplay provide any noteworthy innovations, or will it be more of the same? Will the story be a sloppy bolt-on, a half-assed attempt to fuse gaming with narration by writers who couldn't make it in Hollywood?
(the last clause isn't so relevant for the Witcher guys since they're on the north pole or something, but you know what I mean!)
Hard to get excited about AAA gaming these days. Basically I just look for the dev studios I trust to make amazing games and follow them to the ends of the earth.

Nah, they'll show Zelda U. It won't be coming out any time soon though.
Who cares anyway, I want a Majora's Mask port with a stable framerate!
(incoming disappontment)
Oh I know (well, I'm very sure) they'll show it, but I'm skeptical that they'll show much of the game at all, and then they won't show anything more til E3 2015 even though they need to drum up whatever excitement for the system they can.

If LA win the series, the headline of their newspapers should be "Greatest City In The World".
What's the typical Zelda dev cycle? They haven't shown anything in 2 years. It should be very well along but yeah it won't be coming out this year.

Why would they print something so obvious*?
*obvious to LA residents and no one else.
Seems like it's 3-4 years between mainline Zelda games. (2003: WW, 2006: TP, 2011: SS) They also had ALBW on their plate since SS came out. Still I'd imagine the new one will be a late 2015 game.

EAD 3 made ALBW?
Oh Nintendo, you so crazy.

Not many cities can claim to have every sport representing them by far *Ultra yawn*
Dodgers haven't won it all in a long time.

At the same time they were porting WWHD, even!
Though to be honest, considering the long buildup in game dev projects, it kinda makes perfect sense. Small team starts work on game 2 while large team finishes up game 1, and then once #1 is out the door, #2 is actually in a state where it's planned out and ready for development.
The alternative is the massive hiring->layoff cycle that way too many western devs do.

Where's Philly's XFL title? Don't worry I'll wait.

I'm sad I haven't experienced much of that 3DS glory.
Super Mario Galaxy is GOAT level. Didn't care for the sequel. No Rosalina backstory and over world which were awesome.
Damn kids hate everything that's good.

We have an Arena Bowl title! Jon Bon Jovi bailed on a concert for season ticket holders! Take that! :jnc

I do think SMG > SMG2, but the sequel still had some pretty great stuff in it. Still really impressive to me that it felt like such a different game while keeping all the same control mechanics.
Those games look completely insane in HD on the dolphin emulator, BTW. Unfortunately you need like a 4.2 GHz overclocked rig to run them at 60 fps.

I can run DKCR upscaled and it can barely do 30fps =(
Also yeah, I agree, it just felt like an inferior game with inferior power ups. It's a good game and a fun one but it was a big come down for me.

I've never seen the last gaurdian trailer, but you gotta figure that studio is working on somthing. Even if the last guardian is cancelled, it's been 5 plus years since a release ? Something's gotta be in the works
Yes that movie was quite fantastic.
Right when Im off work for a week.
Perfect!
(Not that I look forward to much except Zelda )

I played NBA2K14 tonight.
Great game, even if I had no idea what I was doing.

It's a bad decision not to cancel.
Long delayed, overhyped games never do well at market.

Probably a technicality.
"not been canceled... this year"
"because it was already canceled."
It's the sequel to ICO and SotC, two of the greatest games of all time.
There is no overhype here, The Last Guardian needs to be released. It's been delayed, sure, but perfection takes time.
TLG will release and it will be great.
