Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Nintendo's E3 Conference, a realistic prediction

trestres said:
Your prediction isn't unreasonable, TX109, but there's some people expecting most of the companies to have secret game #1, secret game #45, 1st party blowout, etc all on the Wii. Those are the ones setting unrealistic expectations in everyone and the ones that will end up bitching at the end of E3, so use a bit of common sense, I'm not talking about predictions like yours, be a more centered person.


i have seen those pretty unrealistic predictions, but thats their problem, not yours. if(and more than likely when) their predictions dont come true then they'll freakout and get on with their lives. it seemed to me that you just didnt have faith in nintendo this year.

Maybe I'm setting the bar low, and you a bit high with the Mario/Zelda/F-Zero announcements, but I never lost faith in Nintendo. I just know that we might have to wait until 2010 to get all we want.

Tres, your expectations are so low that it's almost unrealistic. I know it was silly to expect even a Zelda teaser last year, but now, it's been 2 1/2 since the Wii launch, so some sort of announcement is in order. If Nintendo really does a conference similar to what you predict, then I just give up on them. I'll focus on the much better games 3rd parties are giving us. Seriously, I'm beginning not to take Nintendo seriously any more.

Oh my god, trestres being pessimistic? It's like we've entered the twilight zone.

They seem low, but in fact, I'm predicting more new games than what they got last year. I know, I wouldn't like this to happen either, but right now it looks like it's very probable. Good thing is I'm already prepared for the worst.

I'm being realistic, rather than pessimistic. Who wouldn't like a new Zelda, Mario, DK, etc? Everyone would, but the chances are rather slim, sonsidering they only have 1 hour to showcase the games and even then, I'm already predicting more games than what thye showed last year.

Wii Fit+, Art Academy, Mario Party 9 and Pikmin 3. Would at least be better than last year's terrible disaster.

@Soriku: On nothing? Lol, the only predictions I'm really making are the appearence of Mario Party 9 and Pikmin 3. Pretty much the rest of the games have already been announced, even Art Academy and Wii Fit Plus have been recently trademarked, which can only mean they will be shown. I think that you simply don't like my prediction and you're trying to bash me for no apparent reason.

Of course not, this is just a prediction. I can't see into the future. That's why I said this was a prediction, never claimed otherwise.

But remember that last year Nintendo only showed 3 new games, expecting 4 is already better than last year, so I think you might be unrealistic in expecting so much.

I'd say these predictions are pretty reasonable, they are however on the pessimistic side imo. I just think most people are expecting Nintendo to redeem themselves this year and show lots of core titles, that's all, nothing against your predictions :)

i for one hope for a great show, but i am prepared for the worst. but besides that, this E3 is already WIN for me since i saw the No More Heroes 2 trailer (AWSOME!!!) and Final Fantasy: crystal bearers will be there... and whatever Nintendo does can't screw that up ;D
