I don't think too many will get a Lupin the Third reference. I know I didn't until I just looked it up.

I don't care.
It's a good title and I'm using it.
*pouts*

Knowing the name allows me to imagine any number of scenarios.
A screen does nothing for me.

When you play games, you don't even look at the screen, you just grab the controller and close your eyes and are free.

I bet you read a lot too.

 

[DefectiveReject]

Crytec (I'll just roll with that one) should be asked to do a Metroid game.

No.
No glossy Samus please.

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

Actually, now that I read the description of the speakers, it might have little to do with game development directly and more to do with using video games as a vehicle for social awareness...or something like that

they said they'd have announcements though

 

[Terrell]

Wii U seems to be the biggest and most discussed thing a GDC.

That's good sign, is it?

It sure is.

Hm yeah, i missed that french canadian article, and lucky me im french canadian!

Somewhere in that article, he mentioned Epic and its Unreal Engine 4 that will be shown in the following days and it says "designed for this newcomer".

Hopefully the guy who made that article know what he is talking about.

Wait, WHAT?! Did a French Canadian news outlet just confirm UE4 for WiiU?!

Crytec (I'll just roll with that one) should be asked to do a Metroid game.

Rerto in turn takes on Crysis.

My money's on Crysis being the better game against some odds.

 

[Shion]

Valve / Irrational Games should be asked to do a Metroid game.

It'll look like magic coated candy floss. And you shall cry tears of sweet sweet satisfaction.

My tears will be delicious, and fuel me through the long lonely months ahead.

Well, I'm on a forum where the only form of communication is words...
So, yes?

Retro should be asked to do a new Metroid/Zelda clash of the titans title

I'd be keen for this.

I don't know, I read the words and visualize them coming from the avatars.

I always do that on messageboards, can't separate the two.

 

[Jaded Alyx]

Sorry but I don't recall what happened in Nintendo's E3 2006.

Knock yourself out.

EDIT: Late I guess.

EDIT2: Everything is amazing. Ah, the days when Reggie could still whip up some serious hype.

Really?
It's all just a bunch of people talking in my voice to me.

 

[WonderbreadUSA]

Ok, guys, you can have only one:

Partial specs for the Wii U

OR

a single random screenshot (with no explanation) of EAD's Wii U game

?????

(I don't have either of course)

EAD's Wii U game, hands down.

 

[DefectiveReject]

I'd be keen for this.

No.

Ubisoft should be given it



Welp........

 

[Log4Girlz]

I will be honest, I would prefer a unique Retro IP. Go back to the ravenblade concept of a western, gritty RPG, maybe akin to Zelda. Would be awesome if it had strong artistic influences from different mythologies (go to the greek isles and you see a greek motif, head north and you're in the land of the norse gods etc).

 

[EDarkness]

no big leaks yet? harrumph.

I'd expected at least a few more twitter comments by now

I'm kind of surprised there hasn't been a lot of information released in general. Been a rather quiet GDC from what I can tell.

All that's been done before though, Retro is better than that.

Show and what not starts tomorrow. Last.two.days have been conferences.and workshops.

 

[Spieler Eins]

EDIT: Late I guess.

I remember how high my expectations were for it but the conference still exceeded it. I would have bought every piece of shovelware shown that day, if I could have, haha. We need angry Reggie back.

 

[guek]

ah I see. Odd considering who the speakers are. Should I make a thread?

On speak of Retro...I would love to see them revive the Lylat system...

How likely do you think a new Star Fox game is for the launch window of the Wii U?

no ideaaaaa, let someone else take the fall just in case

I think Metroid is more likely, but you never know with Nintendo.

40/60 to 50/50

Wait, WHAT?! Did a French Canadian news outlet just confirm UE4 for WiiU?!

It's this article : http://technaute.cyberpresse.ca/jeu...ur-les-nintendo-wii-u-et-microsoft-xbox-3.php

Nintendo a déjà dévoilé les détails de la Wii U, mais ce sont certains développeurs qui devraient en montrer un peu plus au cours des prochains jours, alors que le studio Epic Games prévoit faire une démonstration de la prochaine génération de sa technologie de jeu Unreal Engine 4 conçue pour cette nouvelle venue

It clearly says that Epic Games will make a demo of Unreal Engine 4 for Wii U. Of course, we don't know if the journalist wrote is true.

 

[Log4Girlz]

All that's been done before though, Retro is better than that.

People have boners about them handling Zelda. That's been done before...again and again :/

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

I think Metroid is more likely, but you never know with Nintendo.

Which series is better suited for the 3DS???

I would say a new Star Fox so yeah but it's arguable.

Of course the IPs don't hjave to be limited to only one or the other but for the sake of this...

 

[Shadowlink]

Did they announce a new Yoshi's Island yet?

Spoiler

I think we'll see the UE4 demo running on Iphone before Wii U. Not that it won't happen, but I think it will be showed off first

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

Well, I am not one of them!!!!!

I agree that Zelda could use some changes but I don't want Retro doing the next Zelda or a Zelda at all.

But then again, I am a hypocrite, I want Donkey Kong Country Returns 2 from them.

A new IP would be much more intriguing though.

 

[Spieler Eins]

We need Big Damn Trucks back.

Excite Trucks vs. Bikes Trick Excite Racing HD.
Day 1.

I think Metroid is more likely, but you never know with Nintendo.

New MP trilogy would be a dream come true. I just don't want StarFox to die so soon.

I'll be honest. I'm specifically thinking of Two Worlds II. I loved how they attempted to change scenery. Just...not in the way it turned out.

I'm hoping this rumor is true. Imagine how amazing the game would look on WiiU/3DS. :O

 

[Lausebub]

I shouldn't have even bothered. I'm actually quite happy about the things we got so far. Hopefully we'll get one big info (or leak) by the end if the week. This is enough till the AC3 article comes out.
When is Nintendo's investor meeting about the last fiscal year?

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

How about an all new high production adventure/action/platformer starring Waluigi????

No one would buy the game but it could be an easy-way-out new IP.

 

[A.KU.MU]

Stop it, you're killing me.

 

[Log4Girlz]

I get a suspicion the buzz around Wii U is about the user-friendliness of their app store/e-shop and overall improvement of developer relations than it is to power or features. I think most people in the industry are pretty meh about the screen...nice to have but meh.

I think it has more to do with NN and Nintendo's willingness to play ball.

The creative-est of them all should be huge into the screen.

But then again, not many knocked any ideas out of the park with the potential of the Remote.
