Forums - Gaming Discussion - Will their be anything Sony and Microsoft can do to be the winner of this years E3 if the NX happens to be very highly recieved?

They may as well pull a Sony E3 2014 and not really do much of anything. LoZ and NX, let's face it nothing is going to beat that combination. It's not just because I'm a Nintendo fan either. They have shown nothing of LoZ Wii U, so it isn't going to have that same feeling as more Uncharted 4 news, where yes it's exciting but we already know a LOT about the game. Halo 5 is already released, so obviously Halo isn't going to be a factor. Add in that we will more than likely see the LoZ tech demo for NX, which is always exciting.

Then just the NX in general. I mean what has had more threads created ever? There is so much speculation, hope, and tension that has been going on since it was talked about that I literally can't think of anything that has gotten more media attention ever. Not even their move to mobile or their deal with Universal Studios.

So is their anything the other two can do? Or should they more just go and please their fanbase but hold back a few huge titles for a later event where it won't get outshined?

Sony can bring back Crash and the internet would explode.



Well, I'm sure Sony has a lot of things planned with 3rd parties, and they could always showcase new VR games to counter the NX-ZeldaU hype. Also, Nintendo still needs to create hype for the NX outside of dedicated videogame forums.



You know it deserves the GOTY.

I think more only Sony fans who were around long enough to know what Crash is would explode.

VR is in no way on the same hype level as the NX, let's be serious.

And only Final Fantasy fans that wew around long enough to have nostalgia for FFVII would care about FFVIIR. FFVII Remake was no big deal, amirite.

 

E3 is all about the bombs. People expect both Zelda and NX at E3, so it isn't surprising. Even though it's exciting to get more of both, people know that they will be there.

True, but there is noticeably hype for it with the mainstream crowd, while very limited groups of people know what the NX is.

Do you think Crash right now is as big as Final Fantasy, or is Crach a dead series waiting to be resurrected?

Does Crash have a game that is as highly regarded as Final Fantasy VII?

When you answer these questions you will have your answer.

Lol, if you say so.





It depends on the fanbase.

Nintendo and Xbox fanbases mostly don't care about new IP's, they could see as winner their respective conferences because of a new Mario 3D or a new Halo game.

For Playstation fans it goes both ways. Maybe they could unveil another Horizon (New IP), maybe they could unveil a new Crash, it is not that easy to predict. The fanbase is more varied on the Playstation side.
