It's gonna be big, you guys. Hopefully.

It has to be big. If any of the three don't show big stuff, they're dead in the water. Wii U needs a new lease on life, Microsoft has burned the hardcore and needs a pick-me-up, Sony is on life support without a strong Playstation brand. They all need to come out swinging and I'm SUPER EXCITED TO SEE IT!

Things I'd love to see:
Nintendo - New IP, EarthboUnd,
Microsoft - Rare IP coming back in a big way, devotion to creating new (non-shooter) IP, further work with Mistwalker
Sony - The Last Guardian (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PLZ!!!!)

Things I expect to see:
Nintendo - Smash, New 3D Mario, Wind Waker HD, Iwata is "so sowwy" for the lack of Wii U content
Microsoft - Shooters, more Halo, more Forza, more Fable, Kinect bullsh*t
Sony - Shooters, more Killzone, more InFamous, more LBP, continued sh*tting on the Vita

I'm trying to talk myself into Microsoft and Sony being awful so that I can be super happy regardless of the outcome.

I don't think Microsoft will disappoint in the games department, but I do think they need to get everyone on the same page and deliver the same message to everyone.

I think Nintendo has the most to lose from E3.

Maybe Uncharted 4, a new Mega Man game, a new Perfect Dark game, and a new James Bond game.

This will easily be the biggest E3 in a long time, maybe in its history. Two new consoles, Microsoft bored people with TV and promised it's all about the games. Sony also needs to bring a lot to the table. And finally Nintendo who messed up two E3s in a row needs to prove their Console can play with the two new big boys. I mean in theory it should be the biggest E3 because they all have everything to prove or could suffer repercussions for the rest of this generation. Who knows if any of them will actually deliver.

I'll be interested too see what the PS4 price is. I didn't see anything that makes me want to go out and drop $499 this year on an XBox.

Ryse looks great and Dead Rising is always fun, but I honestly can't say I gave a sh*t about anything else they showed, exclusive wise. Killer Instinct? F*cking really!? Of all the truly classic Rare stuff you can bring back, it's that POS you decide on? Then you've got your typical pile of FPS's. Truly next-gen! Microsoft had to make up for some truly heinous sh*t in regards to their draconian DRM and this wasn't enough for me to care.

Sony has the ability to take me 100% by showing some decent games at their conference and by simply saying there are no online checks. Lock games to a console via RF or whatever, I don't give two sh*ts about used games or game resale, but don't punish me for playing expensive games I own.

Best thing so far? EA teasing a new Star Wars Battlefront from DICE and the Dragon Age 3 trailer.

KI Gold could be revived but not this way, it looked terrible. Overall I cared for nothing in the conference and the price doesn't help. Let's see what Sony shows but I think I'm joining the PC Master Race this generation, a little more expensive but a better and upgradeable machine, exclusives are basically dead with the exception of Nintendo titles to me I think.

Sony's conference wasn't that good now that I think about it but all they needed to do was no DRM/cheaper price to "win" it. Killer Instinct looks a little bit better upon a second viewing but cautiously optimistic. Now if Nintendo goes full killer mode I think they can still take the news away from Sony, but then again, Nintendo never misses an opportunity to miss an opportunity.

The same multiplayer/competitive experiences I can have on PS3 with the same bland FPS's that most of us have been bored of halfway through this generation?

I play far more single player games than anything else, online is just an added bonus. And since Sony gets 90% of third party games and their in-house exclusives are more interesting than Microsoft's, what else is there to say?

Of course I have to get a Wii-U simply because I enjoy Nintendo games, but for everything else Sony has me covered.

Nintendo's E3 wasn't good, I felt like I played all the games before. Super Mario 3D World looks almost exactly the same as 3D Land, Mario Kart and Donkey Kong look exactly the same as their previous versions, Wind Waker is a remake, but Smash looked interesting.

It was bad enough the "New Super Mario Bros" series was rehashed 4 times, but it looks like they're doing the same now with Mario 3D Land and Donkey Kong.

I miss the days when Nintendo would take risks like Mario Sunshine, Wind Waker, Metroid Prime, Pikmin, Luigi's Mansion, Starfox Adventures and F-zero GX. The Gamecube was a truly awesome and underrated system.

I was thinking about that when I went out to pre-order a PS4 earlier.

Really disappointed in Mario....it looks like such a downgrade compare to the Galaxy games. Should have just been on the 3DS and given us a full blown 3D Mario instead.

lololol overreaction, man. So 3D World is not what I want either. They want to push the multi-player aspect of Mario, but they're already doing that with the New Mario Bros. series, so I don't really get this. But I'm sure it plays fine and will be a fun game. 3D Land was great....for a handheld Mario. There MUST be a 3rd person single player Mario title in the works somewhere down the line, and they would put it out now if it was ready and they seriously wanted to push this system this year. There isn't a system seller right now and there won't be for the rest of the year.

Makes you wonder why we're not seeing the next 3D follow-up to Mario 64, Sunshine and the two Galaxy games then?

This looks like it should have been on the 3DS as a sequel to 3D Land, because that's what it is. Small based levels with 4-player co-op gameplay. I don't understand what Miyamoto is doing.

I agree with that, the problem is by the time it and the new Zelda come out, the Wii-U might be dead in the water sales-wise.

Mario 3D World and Wind Waker HD may be "fillers" until the new 3D Mario and Zelda, but they're still far off. 2014 will be filled with Mario Kart and Smash, and small titles like the Yoshi Yarn game and probably another Animal Crossing.

Even the Gamecube was outselling the Wii-U in terms of its first 6 months on the market. I don't think Nintendo really wants to sell worse than the Gamecube.

Peanut
06-11-2013, 07:46 PM
You're nuts if you think there's going to be another Animal Crossing next year.

And I honestly don't know what you expect Nintendo to do. Do you want them to magically have these games appear? Do you want them to just spring forth fully formed with the level of polish and quality Nintendo is known for? It's not going to happen that way. Look at where the 3DS was in its initial year and look at it now. The problem with the Wii U in the last half of this year and into next year won't be a lack of support from Nintendo, it's a lack of support from everyone else. Just imagine what the PS3 or 360 would look like with nothing but first-party titles in the span of a year. Pretty f*cking grim. Nintendo just has to support the Wii U as best they can and hope sales pick up.

I'm also 100% sure we'll get one or two more Nintendo Directs later in the year that will show off more stuff intended for 2014.

I understand that it takes time for these game to come out and maybe some of the titles we're getting are "filler" titles but it's been 2 years now since it was announced, this is their third Wii U E3. Nintendo is killing it with the 3DS right now and I expected something similar.

I actually thought Super Mario 3D World was a 3DS title...it is a downgrade from Galaxy and I loved SM3DL. I mean their biggest surprise was Retro doing a DKCR sequel...really? Hope for more directs very soon. I was also hoping to hear more stuff on the VC and 3DS accounts but I guess we can expect those in future directs as well. Oh well, let's hope next year brings some new surprises, new Star Fox, Metroid etc.

The Last of Us is a PS3 title, but its already being considered the best game of this generation and got high 9's and 10's from all the major gaming websites. For PS4 there isn't much shown yet, but Infamous: Second Son and Order 1886 look interesting. Its the start of the generation anyway so it doesn't matter.

I don't see what being a FPS fan means considering all the same FPS are on Sony systems except for Halo.

I'm more surprised that people aren't completely sick of first person shooters yet. Unless they have a different atmosphere like Bioshock Infinite did, I almost can't play them anymore.

MAn that megaman trailer looked great, cant wait to try it out. And I really hope they make Donkey Kong a badass again, I was so disappointed with how he played on the Wii.

After watching a few more gameplay videos of Mario 3D World....this game looks pretty fun after all. It might seem similar to the 3DS game but I'm sure this will have more types of gameplay.

Besides Mario 3D Land was based on the Galaxy gameplay anyway, just in bite-zied levels. 3D World however can make bigger levels using the same aspect.

I don't see what being a FPS fan means considering all the same FPS are on Sony systems except for Halo.

I'm more surprised that people aren't completely sick of first person shooters yet. Unless they have a different atmosphere like Bioshock Infinite did, I almost can't play them anymore.

Halo is the obvious exclusive, but Gears is the game that keeps me going. Bullet storm was pretty good., chrome hounds and few lesser known titles.

ANd as for why fps haven't died out is Competative multiplayer, no match is ever scripted and is different every time, unlike rpgs those haven't died out bc they keep coming up with new stories.

I love Pikmin, but nobody knows what the franchise is outside of hardcore Nintendo fans. Its only two installments were on Gamecube which was Nintendo's least selling console, but also both games didn't sell that much either. Couple that with the fact that Pikmin 2 came out in 2004...and its been almost a decade since an entry in the franchise came out.

If it wasn't for Olimar's inclusion in Smash, it would have probably been forgotten.

Yeah, there totally wasn't a ton of clammouring for years about it or anything. Nintendo fans weren't asking for a new Pikmin all through the lifespan of the Wii or anything.

I love the way you act like you're talking facts when you're just spewing complete nonsense. I don't even get the point you're trying to make. Nintendo doing something for its fans is a bad thing? It needs to have worldwide recognition to be valid? I don't get it.

Pikmin 3 only exists because its Miyamoto's own personal project. Pikmin 3 was originally a Wii game (it was originally confirmed way back in 2008 after all), and it literally took them 5 years of development time to finally get it out in 2013.

Look at the way Starfox and F-zero have been abandoned on home consoles, simply because their last entries didn't sell as well as they could of. Pikmin is not a huge seller, the only reason its getting a sequel is because its Miyamoto's favored concept.

The only reason why Donkey Kong is even getting a huge comeback is how well DKCR sold on Wii. Starfox, F-zero and Pikmin simply do not have the selling power that Mario, Zelda, Donkey Kong and Smash Bros do. Metroid is another franchise Nintendo only really continues for the hardcore Nintendo gamer, especially since Other M bombed and the Prime Trilogy didn't light up sales charts.

People have been asking for a sequel to every franchise for years. People wanted an F-zero sequel since 2003....we're 10 years later and we still haven't gotten one.

If it doesn't bring in tons of money like Mario, Zelda, Donkey Kong, Pokemon, Kirby and Smash....it usually goes long gaps without sequels.

That's why Starfox, F-zero and Pikmin have gone nearly a decade without a sequel, and while other stuff like Kid Icarus/Punchout/Wario Land etc. had to be revived after a long period of death.

Had Miyamoto not favored Pikmin, I doubt they would have spent 5 years of development time on the title. It was originally announced back in 2008 as a Wii game.

Why are you trying to be clever when this is the only reason Pikmin 3 is being made? It's actually been discussed on all the major Nintendo forums.

It doesn't take a genius to figure out why some Nintendo franchises go long gaps without a sequel while the money makers get new installments regularly.

Apparently Ubisoft has 3 more Assassin's Creed games in development all at the same time. They're really running that franchise into the ground.

They didn't say they were main series games, did they? Could be a portable game, a Facebook game, mobile games, some sort of spin-off... and just because they're working on them doesn't mean they're gonna "BAM BAM BAM" all be out right in a row.

I mean I'm not really defending the series because I haven't played it since the first game, but come on, use some common sense for once, man.

There's been a new Assassin's Creed every year since 2009. Ubisoft said that Brotherhood, Revelations and ACIII were all worked on at the same time, which makes sense as it takes at least 2 years to make a decent game.

Logically with ACIV almost done at this point, they're probably working on the next two right now so one can come out in 2014 and in 2015.

Xbox One is worthless, most of its major games aren't even exclusive. We'll be seeing Titanfall on PS4 in a year. I have mild interest in Killer Instinct but I get the feeling its going to be a horrible disappointment.

I probably won't get a PS4 till mid/late 2014 though....there's no rush since the launch titles aren't that interesting.

There are still a lot of PS3 games for the rest of this year:

- The Last of US
- GTA V
- Batman: Arkham Origins
- Rayman Legends
- Beyond

And then crossgen games like Metal Gear Solid V and Watch Dogs.


I'll mainly be on the Wii-U though thanks to Super Mario 3D World, Donkey Kong Country, and Pikmin 3. I might get Wind Waker HD too...but not right away.

I know this is what people say on places like Neogaf, Kotaku, IGN and so forth...but a lot of people come to the same opinions because that's the case.

I really have no interest in Xbox One, and this is not even counting the always online or no used games fiasco. The games they have simply don't interest me. Killer Instinct is the only thing that piqued my interest, but its most likely going to be handled horribly just like Perfect Dark Zero killed the Perfect Dark franchise.

So what does everyone think they're gonna go with? I'm getting the One first, but I'll get the PS4 eventually.
PS4 pre-ordered. i was F5ing amazon and ordered one within seconds of it going up. But here it is over a week later and they still have stock on the Launch Edition bundles. Oh well, better safe than sorry.

I'm definitely getting Watch Dogs for it. Probably Destiny since it has some borderlands vibes and I have some friends already fiending for it. But since that one will also be on PC, it's still in wait-and-see territory for me. Granted, so is Watch Dogs but the PS4 version has some exclusive gameplay, etc. I'm sure it will keep us busy for a while. Beyong those two. I'm inclined to wait for some discount deals on the other launch games (well, and reviews), and there should be lots of them leading up to the holidays. I have my eye on a ton of their upcoming games, including Second Son, The Order, Knack (even if I think it's ugly), thief, and yeah even Killzone.

KH3 and FFXV are also immediate buys for me, but those are a ways off.

I did place an Xbone pre-order but it's just a placeholder until I'm totally certain I don't want one at launch. I've never owned an xbox or 360 so chances aren't looking good. I'm open to changing my mind though.

On Wii U I'll be getting every game showed at Nintendo's E3 Direct. Toying with the thought of getting Disney Infinity on the Wii U to play with my nephew. I really wanted them to announce a PS4 version but that didn't happen. So, I think Wii U may be the next-best.

PS3: Lighting Returns, Beyond, GTAV (unless a PC version magically surfaces),

There's also tons of 3ds, PC and a few vita games also on my list.
