Lineup announced at 3DS announcement:
Don't know about you, but this line up looks a little more complete than NGP's revealed lineup yesterday.

lol did you even read my post?
The 3DS is releasing in a month, the NGP is releasing in probably 10 or 11 months...did you spot a difference there?

OT Gilgamesh he was listing the 3DS titles announced at Nintendo's press conference at E3. All those games were announced the day the 3DS was revealed. That was about as long before 3DS launch as this conference is before NGP. Fact is Nintendo and third parties announced all these games on the during the unvieling of 3DS.
This is why I created my lack of software thread. Because Nintendo announced what 30 games day one, while Sony announced what 10? I had expected for Sony to go all out with announcements.
My logic is that Sony should want to derail the 3DS as much as possible ahead of launch and a solid announcement on software is the only thing that could potentially do that.
P.S I do not believe NGP is doomed anymore then 3DS, Wii or 360. I write negative threads about all the consoles as well as positive ones.
But I gotta admit Badgenome did make me laugh my ass off with his OP!

During the Playstation meeting they had a list of all developers that were working on the NGP, it was a huge list, I thought they were credits at first. Obivously all games won't be announced then, they would want to save that for something like E3 or TGS like Nintendo did, why play all your cards now when your a year away from launch, that gives the competition way to much time to trump them, not to mention would give them nothing to show off during the biggest gaming events of the year. One of the developers that came on stage last night said he's working on some other games for the NGP but couldn't say anything more about it.

Revealing a name is something that re-assures gamers and wouldn't take away from any big unvieling at any of the years big game shows. When 3DS was unvieled they listed games but they did not show screens or video for most of them. We still don't know what games like Sonic are going to look like. Also E3 2010 was almost a year before 3DS launch and they revealed alot of names.
I know their was a developer list. But game names would have had a much larger impact even if they didn't release screens or video. This in turn would build up hype on the forums and gain them attention at the video game conventions.
Not to mention a big list of like 30 games could really damage Nintendo's launch. Gamers might see games on NGP they would rather have then on 3DS inturn effecting their decision to purchase 3DS.
I always think of how Sony , MS and Nintendo are going to counter each other to gain market dominance. What offensive actions can Sony do to drag attention away from Nintendo. A list of 30 or so games would have been perfect and revealing screens and video at their future conferences would definatly keep the spot light off Nintendo.
