Well it indicates something. This is the first time Shibata will be presenting. Last time Europe got the Japanese ND with subtitles.
 
Hardly has anything to do with what you were trying to say about bad online from Nintendo.

The game has great online.

What I was trying to say was Nintendo doesn't know what the fuck they're doing when it comes to online. I think 3DS is getting there, but look at the Wii. Brawl was arguably the biggest release in the console's history, and the online was appallingly bad. What makes you think they'll learn so fast? If the online service for Wii U is on par with PSN, I'd be very pleasantly surprised.

Wuhu island has an unpatchable glitch that has made MK7's online borderline unplayable. That's not good.
 
I saw an episode of The Twilight Zone with Robert Redford starring, and I thought of you, haha..

Good episode, too. That little ol' lady didn't wanna go..

(Haven't seen it, but awesome :P)

Edit: ah, battery dying, bedtime I guess. Can't wait for tomorrow. >_<

Absolutely absurd.

Yet another hyperbolic use of the word "unplayable".

Everyone knows the glitch, it doesn't affect fairness.

It's disappointing that it cuts short a decent course but unplayable my ass.

Plus, what you highlighted before posting the laughing meme was an online heavy game and Mario Kart is just that.

They're not learning fast, they've had years to work on it.
 
While I don't expect this at all. Does anyone think that it might be possible for the WiiU controller to be mounted near a TV set and utilize its front facing camera to create Kinect like experience? I personally couldn't give a damn, but it seems like a good way maintain high portablity between consoles
 
E3 Predictions:

25% of GAF will hate Wii U
25% of GAF will love Wii U
50% of GAF won't care about Wii U

And 100% of people will be disappointed in some fashion.
 
Is it time to do Nintendo E3 Prediction bingo yet?
I remember watching this forum last year do it.... LOL
 
My predictions....

Wii U will be renamed
to something even worse.
 
Anyway, I just got the Shibata letter box / Swapnote message....
Have sent the European Stationery off to everyone on my friend list...
 
the moretime passes, the less inclined I am to believe the name will change.
3DS is pretty much saved from disgrace, and Nintendo Execs have probably noticed that price + line-up > hype.

As for the redesign, I like white and I also have a hard time picturing a Super Famicom return to glory.

Sigh...
 
I'm not much of an online gamer so the Wuhu glitch doesn't affect me as much. Still annoying though; can Nintendo not patch the game somehow (if patching the 3DS is possible)?

I hope that for the Wii U Nintendo allow developers to enforce patching to play online.
 
Reggie couldn't get to his chin waxing appointment this time

Though now that I think about it, the news of a new Nintendo Direct came during the night, nobody of NOA was probably at the office at that hour, so maybe we'll have their message during the day.

I mean, if NOE has one, I don't see why NOA wouldn't.

It's because they are announcing a new Mother and Earthbound game coming to Japan and Europe only.
 
There's no much chance we're getting Fire Emblem here either.

People WILL notice that you can marry a 10 year old...

Curious, where there any Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 games that dramatically increased the anti-aliasing, framerate, etc. when a game was being output in standard definition?
Doesn't Xbox 360 scale everything? What I mean is, they wouldn't need to program a separate 480i/p mode. This should mean no frame rate improvements (other than something aspect ratio related), but the anti-aliasing would appear greater if they're taking a 1000x600 frame or whatever and scaling it down.

This is actually one of those non-power things I've been curious about with the next systems; I liked how simple X360 seemed to make things in this regard, versus PS3 where you tell the system which of several resolutions your display accepts, and hope devs include a mode that outputs properly for it.
 
I hope for a Pokémon Black 2 & White 2 release date announcement. I expect them at least to show something there.

We probably won't get a date for those for a few more months.

We won't get anything on Wii U, and we won't get anything on Pokemon. It's too far away in the west, and we just got a ton of info from Japan.

Also, I was actually able to post! Yay!
 
This is something I've thought about for the Wii U too:

...I liked how simple X360 seemed to make things in this regard, versus PS3 where you tell the system which of several resolutions your display accepts, and hope devs include a mode that outputs properly for it.

I've always heard this because the PS3 does not have dedicated hardware to scale the image.

Most 360/PS3 games are rendered at 720p. On the PS3, most games rendered at 720p are left at 720p, and it is up to your TV to scale it up to 1080p. The 360 actually has extra hardware built-in that scales all video output to the resolution of your choice, regardless of what it is being rendered at.

I hope the WiiU/720/PS4 follow the 360's example and have the console scale all output to the same resolution!
 
I wonder what the major 3DS software is being featured this time?

maybe that Sega x Capcom X Bamco game in motion? (meh)

I want Monster Hunter 4 stuff... you know you want to stick it to Sony nintendo :3
