Nintendo Press Conference E3... letdown?

Anyways I find it kind of funny (and stupid) that people are now selling their Wiis just because of N's conference.

It's amazing how quick people are to jump ship over this kinda shit.  Nintendo is notorious for guarding its best kept secrets.

Plus, even though the conference was still shitty, I still have a lot to look forward to as a Wii owner (harvest moon, animal crossing, basically the entire tales of franchise, the conduit and mroe games from high voltage, ANYTHING from miyamoto, etc.).

Bullshit.  Don't you know?  Link's supposed to be a chick this time around.

make zelda a playable character maybe?  i'd be for that.
 
I've read up lately, and Ninty/Third Parties have been blowing it up.

Dead Rising is coming to Wii.
The Conduit will use WiiSpeak.
Pikmin 3 confirmed in development.
IGN has a crapload of Conduit HD videos of footage from the backstage demo.
Check out gameplay from MadWorld. Really over the top, but looks good.

Wow the 3rd Party developers came up with better stuff this year for the wii than Nintendo by themselves...
All the three press conferences were bad and even as a nintendofanboy i have to say that MS had the best conference (still not that good) and the Nintendo conference was awful.
Except for Wii-Speak and Pikmin 3.
 
Hm, could've seen this coming with the broader audience thing really. But the overall presentation kinda failed hard too, they didn't consider that the crowd that'd be there was not the 48% female gamer buying wii fit and nintendogs.

it almost felt more like an investment bid than a game conference

All those games bolded in the first post sound like crap, xept for AC which might be fun.

But GTA DS??? WTF. Why isnt Sony picking up a portable GTA game?
 
I never thought about it. Maybe this is the third party support they were talking about. I've also heard rumors of Capcom bringing more Resident Evil exclusives to Wii, but I have yet to find confirmation.

One question asked of Miyamoto was Wii Music's qualifications as a game. You know, a game game. Since Wii Music has no discernible scoring system, no goals and little in the way of those squishy innards that makes a game a "game," isn't it just a "musical toy"? That was the question posed by one European journo.

"Yes, that's right," Miyamoto curtly replied "And that's why it's better than a video game."


lol
 
yeah N did let everyone down abit. It wouldn't have been so bad if they didn't make that claim about making more hardcore games, that and the fact that their biggest announcement was a rehash.
