Man, I'm disappointed. There was no news on what Retro is doing nor NST.

You can't be serious

They said there wouldn't be anything related to the holidays

Considering everything they showed today, that's pretty exciting for our holiday prospects. This year is packed.

Yes, I am serious. I want to know what Retro and NST is working on! Metorid: Other M and Galaxy 2 were revealed yesterday. Today was NOA's conference. That's why I expected to hear something from the studios I mentioned.

That was a good show. I got info on the big games I wanted SMG2, MHTri, and MetroidOM.

April, May, and June will be awesome.

Since these 3 are so early, Zelda is a guarantee for holiday release. E3 will solidify this.

The summit was really good, but the black Wii for NA was missing. Hope they are going to show it at E3.

calm down now, the thread was fine, keep it that way.

Don't tell Wii fans what they can't do



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

That's a ridiculously tight barrage of releases. It's like Nintendo is pushing them out early so the back half of the year doesn't get too crowded...

To third parties: Nintendo gave you a chance. Now they're going to show you how they really go about dominating software sales on their platform.

seriously? This is only the 1st HALF of the year. We could get another 3 big titles in the second half, including Retro's or whatever.

 

Theyve won 2010 and all they announced was the first 6  next 4 months.

Trust me that if they are releasing 4 big Hardcore games so close to each other, it means that they have a lot for the 2nd half.

Let's admit that Q1 this year was the weakest one yet, omly game released was Endless Ocean 2, but in Q2 they are releasing MHTri, SMG2, S&P2, Metroid Other M and perhaps Fling Smasher. Q3 could be slow too, but Q4 will be enormous, I'm expecting huge things at E3.

5 "hardcore" games in 4 months, anyone dare to complain?

Trust me there will be.

 

There will always be complains when Nintendo do something, never underestimate the "hardcore elite"

OMG!

Nintendo is going to completly dominate the first half of 2010

Dunaway: She wants to talk to us about Metroid: Other M. “When you finish playing this, you’re going to feel like you know Samus in a way that you’ve never known her before.” This is a game that requires complete immersion, she says.

So this means Zelda Wii is a lock for E3, also it means that Retro's project and Sora's project and DQ X could get some face time as well.
