Nintendo's all about smiling

All I have to say about Nintendo's press conference, no surprises. I was shocked at the lack of new titles for the DS. Pokemon Ranger, Guitar Hero "Decades". Great. We all saw it coming, but I'm excited to try out Animal Crossing. Oh, did you hear that Soccer Mom/Vice President of Marketing hurt her wrist snowboarding?

All we get for the Wii is Wii Sports 2, some Star Wars game (could be cool), and another Rayman. Woot? I don't even know what my opinion on Wii Music is yet. I'm sorry Nintendo, the lack of harddrive, hardcore games, and specific plans for WiiWare not present, you failed to put a smile on my face. Nintendo's press event felt more like what wasn't there, rather than what was there.

Animal Crossing is going to be great, but they pretty much failed to keep me interested after and before that.

I like the Wii Music idea. I want Wii sports too, but I'm not about the Wii mote add on, which I'm sure they expect you to buy 4 of.

Really I think Nintendo has forgotten the core audience. It doesn't matter because they'll make plenty of money off everyone else.

Wii Sports 2 sounds kind of good. I'm going to try to find some info on it now, hopefully they'll say what games are included.

Pft. I agree, they are all bark and no bite. They had only Animal Crossing to satisfy our hunger, and I must say, I've finished the appetizer and I'm ready for the main course.

Oh wait, there isn't one.

@kikook : well those are some cool news... but not as cool as M$ snatching from sony one of their most Precious Exclusives.... again. if this keeps going on i wouldnt be surprised hearing soon an announcement of Tekken 6 and MGS4 coming to the 360.

FFXIII isnt as big as you would think.....THink about all the games Sony has that was exclusive to MS as well.

Nintendo got me at wii sports and wii music, but thats it they really disapointed me. Sony was my favorite.
Posted Jul 15, 2008 6:44 pm PT
not as big? are you serious?
Posted Jul 15, 2008 6:52 pm PT
What exclusives does the PS3 have besides Resistance? They have that 256 player shooter (MAG) that'll probably get canceled, and I don't know if DC MMO is exclusive, but it's a console MMO. 90% chance it'll be canceled.

FFXIII isnt a big deal. A lot of the REAL FF fans are pushed away once that battle system was changed. And Steven I can get a whole list of the games in a matter of minutes believe me Sony has more exclusives confirmed this year. And MAG wont be cancelled, Its too far through its like saying "Heres Halo Blue and its 75 percent finished, We put a bunch of money in it to make it happen, But we cancelled it, SORRY" And MAG is well into the making already so if Sony wants waste money than their idiots. And why do I feel that im the only one with a Ps3? Also you CANNOT confirm a game at E3 then cancel it, You will lose all credibility.

Also again im a little tired sorry for bad grammar. And im not a Fanboy, For anyone who thinks otherwise.
Posted Jul 15, 2008 7:31 pm PT
Games are confirmed at E3 and cacelled all the time. 8 Days
Gateway
Heavy Rain
All those Sony titles

Also random ones, H.A.M.M.E.R., Warcraft Adventures, I think Starcraft Ghost was announced at Blizzcon, Marvel MMO was announced at E3 a few years ago, I just don't have much faith. If this game is real, then it'll be awhile before its release. I mean jesus Killzone was announced in 2005, and its coming out in 2009. and where's GT5?
Posted Jul 15, 2008 7:35 pm PT
and if you don't think FFXIII isn't a big deal, I suggest you got to the Playstation forums. If its not a big deal, why have both I and others in this community wrote blogs mentioning it?
Posted Jul 15, 2008 7:36 pm PT
Ypu never know if anything will happen. it can get cancelled yes, but we'll have to wait and see.
