You're most likely going to be let down by Nintendo if you're expecting all of that.

 

This.

 

 

Stop hyping E3, people, especially with Nintendo. Seriously.

Exactly. When was the last E3 Nintendo was doing REALLY good(overall, not just one or two bombs)? I can't even remember. Hyping can hurt your mental health. See Killzone 2 sales. ;)

To answer your question E3 2006.

They announced Excite Trucks, Mario Galaxy, Brawl, Wii Sports, FFCC, Red Steel (which obviously turned out to be average), and showed Metroid Prime 3

 



"Pier was a chef, a gifted and respected chef who made millions selling his dishes to the residents of New York City and Boston, he even had a famous jingle playing in those cities that everyone knew by heart. He also had a restaurant in Los Angeles, but not expecting LA to have such a massive population he only used his name on that restaurant and left it to his least capable and cheapest chefs. While his New York restaurant sold kobe beef for $100 and his Boston restaurant sold lobster for $50, his LA restaurant sold cheap hotdogs for $30. Initially these hot dogs sold fairly well because residents of los angeles were starving for good food and hoped that the famous name would denote a high quality, but most were disappointed with what they ate. Seeing the success of his cheap hot dogs in LA, Pier thought "why bother giving Los Angeles quality meats when I can oversell them on cheap hotdogs forever, and since I don't care about the product anyways, why bother advertising them? So Pier continued to only sell cheap hotdogs in LA and was surprised to see that they no longer sold. Pier's conclusion? Residents of Los Angeles don't like food."

"The so-called "hardcore" gamer is a marketing brainwashed, innovation shunting, self-righteous idiot who pays videogame makers far too much money than what is delivered."

Nintendo showed practically nothing at E3 2007 so I was expecting a lot for E3 2008 and look..... The fact that they didn't show anything last year does not mean that they are going to do this.
However, Iwata told that this E3 is going to be BIG. I also remember Reggie saying that they had a BIG holiday season title for E3 2008.....and then it was Animal Crossing. I really hope they come up with something bg this year, last two has been quite disappointing.
That's what I expect from each company:

MICROSOFT

· Splinter Cell Conviction.
· Alan Wake gameplay and a release date for the holiday season.
· Some secret software from Rare, maybe Killer Instinct?
· Mass Effect 2
· Some Halo news

SONY

· Hideo Kojimo new project.
· New ICO team project.
· God of War III and Gran Turismo 5 for 2010.
· Uncharted 2 and Rachet and Clank for this holidays.
· Heavy Rain gameplay and a release date.

NINTENDO

· New Zelda Wii for 2010.
· Pikmin 3 for this holidays.
· Mario team game.
· Retro Studios game.
· Factor 5 project.

MULTIPLATFORM

· Bioshock 2.
· Lost Plannet 2 and Dead Rising 2.
· Final Fantasy XIII.
· Modern Warfare 2
· Dead Space 2.

For Microsoft, please add:

  • Forza 3
  • Lionhead game
  • Real Time Worlds game (Crackdown 1.5? APB?)
  • exclusive DLC for some games.

 



Imagine not having GamePass on your console...

Nintendo has a good chance of having a good E3, although I'm really not expecting anything from them since Nintendo doesn't really do much at E3. So many bombs they could drop.

I say we, the gamers will win.

I think Nintendo will win. I have a feeling they have a Legend of Zelda trailer up their sleeves.

i think SONY has the most going on right now and should be able to "win" E3. However M$ has its cards played close to its chest and the show is theirs to steal. It will all depend on what M$ shows.



Long Live SHIO!
