The Press Conference started off so strong. Kind of fizzled out. The only surprise was Reggie flat-out confirming 2 GamePad support. I had my doubts.

Puppet Master = new Reggie meme?

Zombi U looks decent, but I'm so sick of Zombie games.

Using the GamePad to do things while zombies are all up in my grill looks like it will get old.

Reggie's zombie face is gonna be a GIF.

I know Silicon Knights was kind of a long shot but no Retro Studios?

Is it just me, or does the press conference now feel like it's gone off the rails with this NintendoLand stuff?

Looks like this Luigi thing is the new Pac-Man Vs.

So Nintendoland is the new WiiPlay?

No, it's not just you. Very strong start but 3rd party support is still lacking and oddly enough, so is 1st party support. Only Pikmin 3 and NSMBU are Nintendo's only core games announced.

Hopefully something awesome will happen in the end.

Adrock · « **Reply #111 on:** June 05, 2012, 01:10:01 PM »

If NintendoLand isn't included in the Wii U console like Find Mii, I will probably never play it.

I never thought I'd say this, but...

Ubisoft won E3.

Louieturkey · « **Reply #113 on:** June 05, 2012, 01:12:40 PM »

Okay, now maybe Ubisoft won E3.

BranDonk Kong · « **Reply #114 on:** June 05, 2012, 01:13:33 PM »

That was weak.

We get it, we know what it will be like - now show us some GD games.

broodwars · « **Reply #115 on:** June 05, 2012, 01:13:47 PM »

Well that was a lame press conference, despite a strong start. Pikmin 3 looks great and New Super Mario Bros. U looks "better" than its predecessors, but that's...kind of...it. There were Wii U titles shown that if I did have a Wii U they'd be cool like Scribblenauts. But Pikmin 3 was the only system seller there.

And no Retro Studios showing? Seriously? FAIL.

Ubisoft won E3 with the best press conference. I never saw that coming.

ThomasO · « **Reply #116 on:** June 05, 2012, 01:13:57 PM »

Kind of sucked that Ubisoft was given a great chunk of their time when they already had their own conference.

Adrock · « **Reply #117 on:** June 05, 2012, 01:15:21 PM »

Nintendo's E3 Press Conference felt like it was supposed to be the second half of last year's Press Conference. Most of those games were shown last year. It was good, not great if only because the first 15-20 minutes was really awesome. Then, they started talking about Wii Fit U and spent more than zero seconds on SiNG. How was that a major segment of their presentation?

ejamer · « **Reply #118 on:** June 05, 2012, 01:15:46 PM »

I don't know what to think. Maybe my expectations for E3 were too high as I'm kind of left disappointed by all three platform holders.

The good news is that a lot of additional information will probably come out about additional games for all three systems over the next couple of days, and I'm (cautiously) looking forward to the upcoming 3DS event.

I agree. And people say there were no surprises!

Ymeegod · « **Reply #119 on:** June 05, 2012, 01:17:57 PM »

Ended? Didn't they say they had 23 wii U games to reveal? Really suprised at the lack of 3rd party support? Was expecting the newest shooters like CoD BO2, FC3, or even MoH but not one?

What happened to Grhost Recon Online?

Adrock · « **Reply #120 on:** June 05, 2012, 01:18:18 PM »

I'd give it to Sony if only for The Last of Us. Nintendo spent too much time not talking about games.

I felt they spent too much time talking about how that they were going to be talking about games.

Snake-Arms · « **Reply #122 on:** June 05, 2012, 01:20:04 PM »

Worst conference I have seen in YEARS.

I expected Nintendo to convince me that buying a Wii U would be worth my time and as of right now I have absolutely no plans to buy one.

Jesus Christ it was awful

Ditto. Gosh.. I dont know how I feel now.

I think I hyped myself up more and more during the conference. I kept telling myself here at the end Retro will show something! Then I just started telling myself they would show something, other than Nintendo Land to end it. I just.. Can't believe they ended it on Nintendo Land. Maybe it might be the next wii sports, I have no clue. I just can't believe they ended it on that.

wow Nintendo blew their chance for the next generation. Their head start isn't going to matter without compelling system selling software and sorry Nintendo but that's not Nintendo Land. What happened to their so called attempts at appealing to the "Hardcore"? They are mirroring the 3DS launch, making the same mistakes once again. Pikmin, Wii Fit U and Nintendo Land from Nintendo at launch? What the hell are their other studios doing? It's not like they have released Wii games last year or this year. I've gone from defiantly buying at launch to thinking about waiting for a price drop, and I have bought every Nintendo Console at launch since the GameCube.

Sorry Nintendo you lost me, The lackluster third party support at launch is more appealing than the current Nintendo launch titles and I doubt they will announce any more titles between now and Launch.

This conference was worse than 2008 with Wii Music. It wasn't even horrible in a good way like Konami 2010, it just sucked.
