Wii U`s schedule will be shaky til August, but then it will go full steam ahead! Woo-hoo!

Do you guys think Nintendo will announce a Wii Sports game at E3 or will they save it for next year?


I think that this would be the only logical thing to do. The Wii was not about Wii Fit and the other motion control games. Sure, they pushed units, but Wii Sports was what everyone wanted. I had 100's of hours of fun with each game. Wii Sports resort was hours exploring the island like in Pilotwings, and some of the sports were good as well. My other favorite was sword fighting.

Then with Wii sports I played Golf and Tennis for hours upon hours. Even got the top points in the Tennis game. Oh, bowling as well.

I too had a lot of fun with both. Tennis, of course. Table tennis, basketball, the "wave race" mini game was fun too.
Also, wouldn`t mind having a Pilotwings with a Panorama view option to explore the island more.

I do hope they add more depth to them the same way they did for Nintendoland.
Can`t wait for Wii Sports 3!

That surprises me. Did you not like Resort as much as Wii sports?  Or are you saying they are the same. Do you not want the island anymore?

I don`t know if i liked one more than the other, but i missed Tennis in WSR. That was the biggest loss to me.
What i said was that it would be cool to have a Wii U Pilotwings game where one of the areas was Hulu Island and that it would be cool to add the Panorama View to it.

Speaking of Pilotwings, wouldn`t it be great to visit several areas from present and past games from Nintendo?

Well there have been plenty of islands in Nintendo's past. Not sure who makes pilotwings, but it is definitely possible for SPorts Resort 2.

Wind Waker, Skyward Sword, Mario Sunshine, Resort one, Pokemon Snap, Mario Galaxy, etc.

Or even just explore old games. Majoras mask, OoT, Banjo Kazooie, and other game lands.

 

With the Wii U, really anything is possible if they would just get on with it already.

Explore any kind of game. Sunshine levels, Wave Race, Zelda, Donkey Kong Country, Earthbound, Yoshi`s games, etc.
Of course, many levels would have to be redesigned.

I would just leave them as they were for nostalgia reasons. Or maybe the ability to turn old versons off and on for the updated version. I just think it would be cool to see how everything actually was. Like in Shadows of the Empire, when you were able to put in that monster code that let you fly through walls, and pretty much do what you wanted with the code. Just see the whole game!

Obviously they would not be able to allow you to go through code, but they could make the land like it was supposed to be back then.

I know that would never happen, but it would be fun I think.

 

@ Thread title.

 

Are we tired of F-Zero being restricted to those little race paths?


It depends. If they allow for a lot of freedom, they will have to do something about small areas. They can rework it but always keeping the original feel of the level or area.

 

F-Zero GX had normal racing tracks. Some were quite big.

But I am saying, what about a futuristic City? Or landscape? Maybe like The Fifth element or Blade Runner?

To be honest, i remember like 3/4 tracks from the game. But one i do recall to be placed - or at least, partially - in a forest. I liked that track.

But that`s a good idea. Making the tracks be a part of something more specific.

Miyamoto looks like a little kid sometimes. Awesome!



I really hope they put out a better ND!



All I am seeing right now on their E3 direct is Lag Lag and more Lag! Great choice Nintendo going the direct way!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

No it has not good sir, thanks!

 

we have not been able to talk. What did you think  of E3? Nintendo in particular.


Ur welcome!

I think its been a fairly good e3! Every conference has been good, but nothings been perfect. MS brought some good exclusives, but failed to address the most pressing issues. Sony showed alot of games, but hardly any exclusives. Nintendo showed some great games, but totally skipped every 3rd party game and didnt bring any surprises.

Whats ur take on e3 this year!?
