BELIEVE, jesus that sounds desperate doesn't it.

From now on im not going to say it, ill privately hope for Nintendo core announcements.

OT, Looks like every console is handing out the pain lately.
Nintendo's E3, MS's ahh Halo Wars and now Sony's BIG ANNOUNCEMENT for a system no one gives 2 sh--s about



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

Still this isn't uncommon, Sony pulled a Keighley. http://twitter.com/geoffkeighley/status/1389733471

Press requires attention, so they build anticipation ahead of time to get that attention. It's for the same reason that news articles often have misleading, but eye-catching, headlines.



A game I'm developing with some friends:

It is largely a technical exercise but feedback is appreciated.

So this was the "BIG" announcement?

Just wow...



I'm not a fanboy, I just try to tip the balance in favor of logic and common sense.

LoL it's Kotaku who spead the news about big annoucment. Sony never said they have big news :D

Still I can't understand how can anyone choose Wii when he can buy PS2 for 130$ or Arcade for 200$.
