Alright a little while ago NGamer stated that Nintendo's media summit would be bigger then E3 09/08 combined. This got my heart racing and totally hyped up the summit. But now that the summit is rapping up in the US and we saw nothing actually new the question begs for an answer. Was the Summit really as big as even a single E3 and if so was it as big as the last two E3's combined?

In the end the Summit simply announced the release dates for some software namely MarioGalaxy2 and Metroid the other M. It also announced some new info on Monster Hunter Tri as well as a couple other games. But was this really as big as E3?

I know the last two E3's have been pretty lack luster but E3 2009 did unviel Metroid and Mario's next outings as well as unvieling NewSuperMarioBros:Wii. Did the summit actually eclipse that?

Also do you think tomorow's European Summit will have anything that the American summit did not? If so do you think that this Summit will surpas E3 once the European event ends?

I just want your input?

Definitely better than 08 and slighty then 09, so I'll go with yes. IMO anyway.

I like the new information, especially the release dates, but Metroid Other M just came out of nowhere and surprised me last year, both that along with Golden Sun 2, NSMBWii, and Super Mario Galaxy 2, and that leaves my answer at not really, but that isn't what it should have been aiming to do. Either way I anticipate Zelda Wii at this year's E3.

No way, I'm waiting some info on Last Story and vitality.

that would better not be the whole thing.

No not at all but definitely was some nice surprises in that the two big games they announced last year will be releasing in the first half this year. Definitely a good media summit, but not as big as their E3's.

Better than 08 yes.

It wasn't bigger, it was better.

absolutely not.

Last E3 we got NSMBWii, Zelda, Metroid Other M, and Super Mario Galaxy.

All we got at this show was release dates and more trailers for some of the above games.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy
