Forums - Nintendo Discussion - nintendo believes the tide will turn for hardcore gamers next year

@trestres: Remmeber that Nintendo has approached a new way of releasing games, by surpise. They just announced a few not all of them.

Huh, why's everyone being so mean to poor ol' Cammie ?

I think she's awesome, since the E3 'Disaster' she really tries to appeal to us no-life hardcore gamers :O
I guess the internet rage actually got her attention



@bob: They have already shell out their Japanese, European and American 2009 release schedule. Europe seems to be the most hated region by Nintendo, with only 1 game there. America comes up next with 5 games then comes Japan with 14 games.

2010 is only a year away, I guess we will have to be patient.

Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.
Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.

"i'd say SCREW YOU HARDCORE GAMERS (well, not out-loud, but just do what they are doing this Christmas)."

Coming in third in software sales?



@trestres: You have a link to provide? Or atleast tell us the games and dates.

Vaan pannaan jalalla koreasti.

That is just a list of the announced games. It doesn't take into account the other games that will be announced between now and E3.



@triple: Well, that's what Nintendo has planned for 09. As for E3... They said they won't be announcing anything else there anymore, so I'd scratch E3 from my head when it comes to Nintendo games.

WOW very bold statement by Cammie, after she admitted that she cry after the E3 conference seem she already have confidence. I think because there are enough core gamers to please the Wii fans in 2008-2009 after the October conference.

And this statement is very significant, she says the "halo crowd" the ones that always plays COD 4 and Halo the one that likes violence and wants online games. Seem Ninty have something hiding on their sleeves we're into a surprise...



end of core gaming days prediction:

 

E3 2006-The beginning of the end. Wii introduced

 

E3 2008- Armageddon. Wii motion plus introduced. Wii Music. Reggie says Animal crossing was a core game. Massive disappointment. many Wii core gamers selling their Wii.

 

E3 2010- Tape runs out
