Forums - Gaming - Sony and Nintendo need to announce something big at E3

As for Sony, I don't think they have anything to worry about. Their momentum is so strong, they could ride the year out on multiplats alone. Heck, if they announced tomorrow that they've decided to adopt the same DRM Microsoft was castrated for proposing in 2013, I reckon gamers would roll with it.


There'd be an outcry at first but it would die down quickly :P

Nintendo could announce Pokken, Metroid and Animal Crossing this E3

That´s 3 big titles.



Nintendo has a big selection of games coming up for the rest of the year. I'm not worried about them at all. I'm even less worried about Sony. They could release a statement that says they remove a unicorns horn with each PS4 sold and most likely their sales will increase. I'm actually more concerned about MS with the rumor of QB being delayed.

Metroid = Automatic win


I don't know about that, but it would definitely help for the Nintendo gamers who need some hype once Halo launches.



Sony has plenty of ammunition left. They've learned from the past and have been in no rush to reveal games that are still deep in development. That situation is further strengthened by the success of the PS4, allowing them to be conservative with their approach. I doubt they even lay all their cards on the table at E3.

A drag for short-term excitement but smart with the long-term in mind.

Nintendo's position is less advantageous. Zelda is the only big gun that we can count on, though I think there is still a chance of a Mario Galaxy type title, which could be huge. It all depends on when/if they decided to stop developing major titles for the Wii U and cut their losses. Neither Starfox nor Metroid would do much for them in the overall market.

It might be Microsoft's year in terms of big games. Still, though, it's not that big of a deal either way; as Microsoft has said in the past, this is a marathon, not a sprint.

Metroid and Animal Crossing would be nice buys. Pokken wont get very much hype and i'm a fighting game fanatic. That game hasn't gained any major stripes in the fighting game community yet.

I'm expecting Nintendo's E3 reveals for Wii U to be relatively modest; nothing massive on the level of open world HD Zelda, but rather lower key stuff on the level of Yoshi's Woolly World, Captain Toad, Kirby and the Rainbow Curse. If I had to guess, I'd put my money on Diddy Kong racing 2 by Retro.

You know, at first glance your last statement is preposterous, but it's pretty true. They can do anything they want at this point.

OT: I think Metroid and SMTxFE from Nintendo and GT and GoW from Sony are essentials. Even if they're not gameplay footage, a teaser is better than nothing.

Hmm, regardless of what Ninten and Sony do, I think Sony will continue to do well, and they will have plenty to cover at E3. Sony is usually covered in spades when it comes to announcements. So Sony is probably fine.

Ninten also can`t do much either. No matter what announcements they make (unless a console announcement) likely won`t sway those outside of Ninten fans. Regardless of what they do, Ninten will probably drag along like usual. But I do hope they announce for goodies in the near future, and put on an awesome show like last year. I`m hoping for Fatal Frame 5 and finally the announcement of SMT x FE. Some new game announcements would be nice.

Also, the title could use a `do` in it. I thought I should point that out.

Very true, but at E3 its when the most hype occurs in the gaming world. Gamers who are normally ignorant to most news from the yearly conventions at least hear about one game from E3. Nintendo has won E3 before and they can do it again. The Wii U might not sell amazing numbers, but at least it will have a more competitive year because seriously...they lack the third party. Everything is coming down to the exclusives.

I don`t doubt Ninten can have a great E3 and even win the show, though with how poor the Wii U is, almost nothing can save it. It wouldn`t help if the digital event is done again (granted I really like that).

I don`t think exclusives factor a lot with this gen. PS4 and Xbox 1 I honestly think are/were lacking in that area, but they are still selling well, especially with the PS4.

Microsoft has more big titles confirmed for release and one rumor isnt exactly hurting their chances. They will have an almost unanswered 3rd and 4th quarter from Sony and Nintendo, we'll see.

A GT7 teaser at E3 wouldn't surprise me, but given we only got GT6 in 2013, there's no way in hell GT7 is coming this year.
