Oh, my God, what is going on?Only Zelda U? Is that all they are going to show? They must have other things for the WiiU/3DS, even if they have to bring every unreleased japanesed title to the West. Something, one game on the show is laughable, even if it is Zelda U.

 

Well obviously Sun/Moon and Color Trash aswell, possibly a lower budget 3DS game or two, but yeah beyond that nothing much. Assuming it's another 45 minute digital event, I expect the breakdown to be 15 minutes Zelda, 15 minutes Pokemon, 15 minutes Other. Would explain the dead silence on those games.

But that's still a very weak conference. Couldn't they just make a deal with some japanese companies to bring their japanese-only games to the west? There are enough niche 3DS games that you could bring from Japan and still make a decent presentation. Not great, but something presentable. Now it's the time to ask 3rd parties, pay the localization costs if you need, don't be cheap.



You know it deserves the GOTY.

I can feel the salt. I can taste it. Zelda always gets delayed guys. And Nintendo will announce a few games at E3, they've done it... every single time -.- (the games might suck, but still new games)



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

You really don't understand that Zelda U delayed only because the NX launch? Aonuma clearly stated earlier that they on the finish line with development of LoZ.

GODDAMMIT NINTENDO!

I know they will hold it off for the NX, but damn lord, this game has been delayed for more than 2 years!And it was a game that was promised in the early days of the Wii U.Dammit Nintendo, Nx better be amazing....

For the Holidays Im guessing they are announcing 2 or 3 titles at E3 for it.I mean, the holidays cant be empty, right?I imagine Pikmin 4 will finally be revealed to fill the gap, plus another unannounced game.



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

Yeah if Nintendo wants to earn some goodwill, they wont make the NX version too different like the TP situation and also let Wii U owners get a discount on Zelda NX whenever they upgrade to NX as a thanks for their patience. They dont have to do this but considering TP on GC only sold 1.5 million on a 22 mil userbase, they wouldnt be losing too much profits if they did.

Nope. Nintendo is forecasting only 800k Wii Us sold for this entire fiscal year. That means in layman's terms, they've given up on it.

I think you'll get Paper Mario: Color Splash and maybe Minecraft physical release with Nintendo DLC as the main remaining Wii U titles and that's it. 

Pikmin 4 is likely an NX title.

There's no excuse, Nintendo, this is utterly ridiculous.

Anyway, that just reinforces my decision to not buy NX in its first years. We can no longer take for granted the games we'll get.

If it were yesterday, I would have called you a madman and moved on.But goddammit, you probably are right.Nintendo dug themselves in a PR disaster, and if the rumour about E3 is true, I really cant see them getting out of it, unless NX is the next messias...
