Forums - Gaming Discussion - Has the bar been set low for Nintendo to steal the show?

only if you ignore the third parties. and even then, they can still fail to impress esp without showing the new Zelda

I thought Microsoft's conference was bad (nothing but a lukewarm remake with 4 old games) but while watching Sony's conference, I got bored to death and almost felt asleep.

I do not own a Wii-U but Nintendo would have won the E3 with X and Zelda alone, even if Sony and MS were having a great show which they didn't.



It's really interesting to see how Nintendo show will be

Compared to Sony and Microsoft.



You wouldn't think it'd be hard to beat them so long as they show X, Zelda, Smash and some new games.

But this is Nintendo. There's a chance we could see Wii Music 2, a new fitness game and the Vitality sensor return...so nothing is decided yet.

5 hours!



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

Nintendo show should be very interesting.

We will soon see what they have to offer.

Nintendo fan would say Nintendo conference is the best just because of Mario games

"Sony fan would say Sony conference is the best just because of Uncharted."

"Microsoft fan would say MS conference is the best just because of Halo."

Terrible logic.

Have you been paying attention to the comments the past few days?

The only problem with his logic is he said Mario instead of Zelda.

Anyway, Sony and Microsoft really scored an own goal yesterday. X gameplay, Zelda gameplay and a big new game announcement and Nintendo may have this.



Isn't it only 30 minutes? I don't see how Nintendo wins anything with that.



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

i can name you 25 third party titles sony and microsoft will get and nintendo dont that say NOP


Can you name me 25 third party titles that will make it worthwhile for me to purchase a ps4 or xbone?

I'm not sure why I should drop $400-500 on a console to play games that will be available on my pc.  I honestly don't understand why anyone would.  For me, it really boils down to first party exclusives, and I have yet to see anything all that exciting.


You just won this thread.

Why is it so hard to understand that not everyone has or wants a decent gaming PC? I have one myself but its incredibly naive to think most gamers would pick a PC over a PS4 or XBox One, they simply cant be bothered. 

From that perspective Nintendo cannot Win E3 in their eyes. If I didn't own a gaming PC then I wouldn't own a Wii U. Id be focussing on a PS4 or X1 and that includes all 3rd party multiplats. From that point of view Nintendo simply wouldn't be on my radar. Why cant we understand each other and just get along?

As a PC and Wii U owner, I expect Nintendo to win. In a world where I didn't have a PC Id consider Sony to have won.

You know I ask a lot of PC elitist that question myself when they show up on video comment sections to try to convert every console gamer there. Fanboys will always claim their side won E3 it happens every year because they are so biased to call it down the middle and actually judge each conference on it merits. It alls depends where you sit. Everyone has a preferred side, however some people just able to overcome thier bias recongize more than just thier own views. You seem like one of those people who can be unbiased.

Except you don't need a 'gaming' pc to play games on a pc.  I will never understand why anyone would spend $400 on a "pc" with less available games and much less functionality.  That is essentially what new consoles are. 

So again, I really don't understand why anyone would spend $400-500 on a limited pc, when they could just put together a real one for the same price (or upgrade a current one for less).  I have yet to see any reason why anyone would want a Xbone or PS4 over a pc, because they haven't shown any.  The "24-25 third party titles available on PS4 or XBone" is pitiful when compared to the thousands of titles available on any average pc (which includes those same 24-25 games).  So what's the point?  The main thing that should be selling new consoles is exclusive content, but for some reason that isn't the case.  This E3 disappointed me because it only reinforced that fact.
