Pretty much a thread with everything about E3 aggregated into one place and to discus the event. If anyone wants anything added please let me know.

Where did you get that list of "confirmed" games for the Nintendo Direct? Because I have seen fake lists, but from what I can tell there is no CONFIRMED list. The closest to any confirmation is Hideki Kamiya hinting that Bayonetta 2 will be shown. Super Mario U, Super Smash Bros. 4, and Mario Kart U are the only ones i've seen actually confirmed.

I picked most of the stuff we knew would be there alongside the most probable.

why do we need this, don't we have the 'road to e3' thread already

[TJ Spyke]

Shingi, then they are not "confirmed", are they? More like "expected", it's predictions of what will be there, not confirmed titles.

Pokepal, that is just for Nintendo stuff. This thread would also include Sony stuff, Microsoft stuff, PC stuff, and other random stuff (i.e. Android tablets, Ouya, etc.).

[pokepal148]

I think, based on the reveal and the past two E3s we all know what microsoft has in store for us...

[shingi_70]

Well the road to E3 is a Nintendo mostly thread and is about getting there. It makes more sense to have a separate thread for the event to encourage conversation and not having to look for the start of conversations.

I can't wait for the new Wii U vitality sensor. It has a 1" touch screen.

Didn't you see? The Kinect 2.0 IS the Vitality Sensor. It senses your heartbeat and everything!  :

I guess the E3 thread is someone else's problem this year. I was just considering whether I was going to bother to do press conference threads this year.

[Caterkiller]

Who is going to E3?

I'm debating if I want to try and get my ticket again this year. I have one day to attempt it. Maybe if some you cool people are going I'd be more inclined to try.

[shingi_70]

Nope I'm in michigan.

[TJ Spyke]

If someone can get me a ticket into E3 AND buy me a plane or train ticket, sure. LOL

Otherwise, nope.

[magicpixie]

My body is ready...

[Oblivion]

I'd be fine driving there if I had left two days ago and someone got me a ticket.

Killer Instinct is the only thing Microsoft has shown so far that has piqued my interest and I'm terrible at fighting games not named Smash Bros, which I'm only not-as-terrible at.

I'm at work so I'll check out the recaps and trailers later.

I'd be more interested in it if Rare wasn't making it.

EDIT: Saw the demo, the game has kinda lost it's graphical charm. Now it just looks like any other fighting game.

Rare isn't making it. Double Helix (the studio that made Silent Hill: Homecoming) is developing it.

I stand corrected.

[Stogi]

HAHAHAHAHA

500 bills in the US and EU?

Ridiculous.

[Soren]

FOUR HUNDRED AND NINETY NINE UNITED STATES DOLLARS.

[Stogi]

Awww....Killer Instinct....what happened?

You use to be cool.

[stevey]

The only game I liked was the new panzer dragoon game and it's nowhere close enough to make me buy a xbone surveillance system.

and damn ms to hell for desecrating KI

[Stogi]

The most interesting game for me was Below. It felt like the original Zelda.

[Soren]

I can't wait to play that one dynamic open-world [1st/3rd] person shooter staring white caucasian male protagonist.

But yes, Below looked interesting.
