I feel a bit weird about saying this but this was probably the best E3 conference I've seen in years. Yeah, Zelda didn't work properly but I guess they really had some technical issues. The new Kirby looked great, Donkey Kong and Kid Icarus also looked good.

They didn't work properly because of interference, EPic Mickey also had the pointer going crazy. This same thing happened at the Google conference a few weeks ago and the apple conference a week ago, theres just too many mi-fi/bluetooth/3g signals coming out.

Also free 360 eat your heart out, Nintendo delivered blondes with 3DSs


Sony will have to dedicate most of their conference trying to sell you Move so its easy to see Nintendo "won" E3. ironic nintendo will likely have the least "waggle".

I am most excited about Kirby Epic Yarn.

3DS impressed me more than I thought it would, but it's still not a "must buy".

I love Nintendo right now . I've been wishing for a new Donkey Kong Country for years and now I finally get one <3

Zelda looks awesome, I love Wind Waker and don't get why som many are having a hissyfit over the graphics.

I wasn't interseted in Epic Mickey before but now it's a must buy game and Kirby looks so cute.

Lets see what Sony has to come with, I'm hoping for some Final Fantasy Versus XIII info.

So after years of being derided for ignoring the "hardcore" gamer market, Nintendo comes out of the conference as the only company to focus their show around blockbuster, core games. And holy hell, did they deliver. No new gimmicks; just a respectable system update (3DS) and a handful of A-list titles. This is the first time I've been excited about video games in a long time.

So after completely ignoring the DS for fighting games, Capcom steps in with Super Street Fighter IV 3D Edition. Word. So far this is the biggest draw for me on the 3DS.

If they would have revealed "Project Sora" to be Smash Bros. 3D, I'd be getting in line right now for 3DS. But alas, it does not look as if it has come to pass.

Anyway, The Nintendo conference was pretty great. DK was my top pick from that show. Kirby looked really aesthetically pleasing, but why didnt the little ****er eat anyone?

Zelda looks neat, with cel shading, but the controls looked like ****. Interference or not, I dont want to use the Wii motion **** that much.

Epic Mickey looks fun, as well as Other M.

Damn it. The only thing I've been interested in at the Sony camp (apparently a Jak & Daxter/Ratchet & Clank/Sly Cooper crossover) was reduced to a mention on all sites I'm trying to follow.

Extremely underwhelmed by the new Twisted Metal, Sony mostly bored.

I did like Move though like Kinect. I kinda wish both were really one device. Kinects camera with Sony's controller. Maybe for next-gen....

That's where I'm at. Nothing other than the pretty designs stand out about it right now, given that all they're doing is shoving the motion controls at us. Not a fan of motion for the sake of motion.

On the other hand, I learned many yeas ago never to judge Zelda games by their first E3 trailers. So I'm not sweating over it.

Sony showed absolutely nothing I cared about, not the rumored ICO/SotC HD collection, nothing on Last Guardian. No interest in Move, no interest in LBP2 or whatever other sequel to an underwhelming franchise they showed off. Weak. At least they showed games, though. Microsoft rushed Reach and Gears 3 off the stage for absolute sh*t.

Nintendo definately showed up, though. While I couldn't care less about a Kid Icarus game on 3DS, the handheld itself was exciting to see/hear about. Kirby looks super hot, as does DKC Returns. And I'm totally into what they showed with Zelda, technical issues aside, looks great.

Yes! Donkey Kong Country has always been one of my most beloved childhood games. It will be great playing with the real DK after 11 years.

Only complaint so far is that the barrel blasting sounds too cartoony and that the original look better graphicaly, but thats nit picking. Can't wait!

It should. DKC:R looks so good that those were the only things I could find to nitpick.

Did Sega present yet? I'm hoping for some Sonic Colors videos.

The new Zelda looks really awesome. I like the combined looks of realistic and cel shaded. This game looks really promising as any other Zelda would be.

The 3DS is going to be awesome! So many games! Resident Evil, Saints Row, and I hope that The Ocarina of Time is really on there.

Gears 3 is going to be Epic ass hell!
