"Umm....what does an Ubisoft game have to do with Nintendo's E3 press conference?
Ubisoft has it's own conference."
If you watched Nintendo's E3 press conference last year, you know that prior to the conference, they were promising to deliver all these games to please their longtime core fans. Then, they proceeded to open their show with a video that basically showed all these people with smiles on their faces as if to say, "We're Nintendo. You're going to take any shovelware we throw in front of you with a smile." Then they were acting as if they were going to unveil all of these games that would actually rival games like Gears 2 and Fallout 3 in terms of quality. But what did it turn out to be instead? Just a bunch of videos of pablum games like Star Wars Light Saber Duel and the big exclusive Rayman: Rabbids 2 or 3!
That was pretty much the origin of their E3 conference being held by many critics as the worst one since the CD-I, 3DO, and Jaguar E3's of years past concluding with the ultimate time to get up and do the laundry presentation of Wii Music.
Previously, I had posted in a forum asking "What would be the worst case scenario for Nintendo at this year's E3?" that it would begin with them showing a Raving Rabbids game and end with them showing this year's equivalent of Wii Music.
Well, last night I flipped over to IGN to see their pre-E3 coverage. And the very first game mentioned for the Wii in that article was the latest Raving Rabbids game (Okay, to be honest it looks like this one will be much more substanitive and it is being developed by the same folks at Ubi that developed Peter Jackson's King Kong and Beyond Good and Evil and not the people that developed previous Rabbids games, so it will probably be much more worthwhile than previous Rabbids games). However, it was direct confirmation of my post about what we would see at E3 if Nintendo's worst case scenario turned out to be true, so I couldn't resist posting a thread about it.
I don't think that by itself (and since it is supposed to be better) it means Nintendo will have an E3 like last year's. I just found the coincidence to be humorous. If on the other hand no Mario, Metroid, Zelda Wii, or Icarus games are shown and the conference ends with the presentation of Wii Music Motion Plus instead of Kingdom Hearts 3, don't say that I didn't warn you it was a possibility and a Rabbids game would be an indicator.
