Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Nintendo - titles of interest to core gamers will be announced around E3

Garcian Smith on 16 June 2008

My guess:

New Zelda
Kid Icarus
New Starfox game
New Intelligent Systems project (Probably a Paper Mario game)



"'Casual games' are something the 'Game Industry' invented to explain away the Wii success instead of actually listening or looking at what Nintendo did. There is no 'casual strategy' from Nintendo. 'Accessible strategy', yes, but ‘casual gamers’ is just the 'Game Industry''s polite way of saying what they feel: 'retarded gamers'."

November

DS Mario Party DS
Wii Link’s Crossbow Training
DS Master of Illusion

12 releases on DS and Wii.

I’d expect at least 10 releases this second quarter.

 You are missing Fire Emblem: Raidaint dawn.

Really?

 

 We recently announced the upcoming release of Mario Super Sluggers. Additionally, we will be announcing several new titles that core gamers will be interested in around the time of E3.

Where does it say that Mario Super Sluggers interest core gamers?

That is VGChartz LONGEST review. And it's NOT Cute Kitten DS

Sounds like he's implying that those games 'core gamers will be interested in' will be coming from 3rd party. It's certainly possible Nintendo has asked for some key titles to be held back until E3 for greater impact.

wow that must be the most subdued E3 announcement ever. Mario Super Sluggers great and "titles, core gamers will be interested in". I really hope thats Japanese understatement.
I really do not understand why the Wii sells so well. Casual gamers are a weird bunch. But alas...

 

Translation: WHY NINTENDO WHY!!?? Why do you keep releasing great games on the Wii, and most specially CORE games!! If you keep doing that my HD console will not dominate! :'( WHY DO 3RD PARTIES SUPPORT THE WII!ONE11? And even with CORE games buaaaaaa *cleans tears*
*I'm going to cry a river inside my room, sniff, I'll wait until next E3 in 2009 where I hope and wish Nintendo turns casual

Bets with Conegamer:

Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.
Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.

I expected the Wii to really take off 2 years after launch. Hopefully I was right!



pichu_pichu on 17 June 2008

well I can't wait to whatever they announce



Smashchu2 on 17 June 2008

I'm a core gamer. This interest me.

Also, rumor is that Nintendo might show a new IP with new characters. From Gamepro

Also, they are in the Kodak theater so expect a good E3.
