It certainly looks like one hell of a game!!! I can't even imagine how much they are suffering now since they have to wait almost a year till the full game!

"Last time this happened was when Nintendo unveiled the Wii for the public at E3 2006." Wow

it's kinda poetic lol, hopefully good times are coming.



Stampedes can be dangerous. Hope no one was hurt.

I didn't think there would be a literal stampede lol. 



I think we know why Nintendo delayed NX and Zelda BoTW to March. So they could avoid this mixed with Black Friday.

But seriously, this is crazy. The game is simply stunning. I'd be running too. I swear I have been this excited about any game in my entire life. I'm a Dragon Quest fan and I'm more excited about this than Dragon Quest VII, VIII or XI.

Actually, I was watching some GameSpot E3 coverage and one of the guys who was at that 2006 e3 said this is even bigger.  The Wii line topped out at ~6 hours.  The Zelda line topped out at ~8 hours yesterday, despite having 117 demo kiosks set up.  And it only stopped at 8 cause that's where they capped it.

Nintendo may have lost the larger war of E3 with the Nintendo brand as a whole not grabbing much mind share.  But they definitely won a significant victory with Zelda which is now on the minds of a huge number of people.

I agree.  I haven't been this excited for a game since Final Fantasy VII when I was an impatient child.

At first I was extremely disappointed at the fact that NIntendo chose to focus E3 on BotW alone but after seeing the game, the reception and the desperation of people at E3 to demo the game, it looks like Nintendo made the right call.  And just think; while everyone else already got their E3, Nintendo fans are still going to get their real E3 later in the year when the NX is unveiled.



I hope this translates to good sales.
