Nintendo Gaming / Re: Post-E3 anticipation levels.

« on: June 08, 2012, 08:31:46 PM »

There is too much pessimism here!    I was disappointed with the press conference itself, but that has not really affected my anticipation of the Wii U. I am still sure that I am buying the system day one, mostly for Pikmin, but also for future games. I trust Nintendo enough to believe they will provide us with enough first-party titles to keep me playing.


My excitement for the 3DS is also really high. Luigi's Mansion looks fantastic, and I know that I can't pass up a Mario game. Thanks to Reggie, I will also get Fire Emblem to keep me busy. I am a little down about Animal Crossing though...

I personally doubt we'll see a lot of that. Why would third parties spend extra resources just to make the Nintendo console's version the prettiest? Everyone's hurting for cash right now, I'm just praying to the Videogame gods that we DO get third party games at all. I don't care about having the "best" version out there, I just want to have decent "good enough" ports of either PS360 games or PS4-720 games.

I completely agree with this statement. I'm happy now mostly because of Arkham City and Mass Effect 3, even if they are older games. The real question is if we will have this kind of support throughout the entire life cycle of the system. I hope that poor sales for these games, which might happen considering they are older, does not change third party support. Also, we don't need better graphics to have better versions of games. All they need to do is implement the controls and use the GamePad in a way that makes the game better.


I do very much want to believe that Nintendo has plenty of more games and features to show off, so hopefully the Paladin's theory is correct!
