Those Black sheets are awfully thin. How big of an area do they have this year? Also how will the NWR crew queue insanely early for this when they have the conference?

they need an intern.... (Insanolord?) to wait in line while everyone else watches the conference.

With a 3g/4g card and a laptop he could even be working. I approve.

The term "Microsoft" kind of describes their conference, eh?

ok so im going to do one quick and dirty mockup before tommorow, and here it is

like a telephone cradle! This came to me while i was half asleep and the phone was ringing.

I've thought of that possibility, but if there's a screen on one section, it seems too bulky to hold in one hand. And I hope we don't get a repeat of the Wiimote where additional controllers like the Classic Controller will have to be tethered to the main controller instead of interacting wirelessly with the system itself.

King of Twitch · « **Reply #408 on:** June 06, 2011, 07:28:08 PM »

I really that mockup and think it's very plausible, but the problem will be people (kids) accidentally smashing their screens because a wriststrap isn't going to help.

Bonus: Did you notice that without the remote attached, it looks like SNES cartridge?

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #409 on:** June 06, 2011, 07:28:35 PM »

I think if it went with a detachable Wiimote2.0 design, then you wouldn't need to hold it with one hand as the wiimote would be attached when you are physically using the screen.

ThePerm · « **Reply #410 on:** June 06, 2011, 07:41:33 PM »

i was thinking if one side was wider then the other but both sides were removable and re-attachable you could have bunch of different play modes, i mean if there was a port on all 4 sides, that would be cool. Probably not going to be at all like this.

kinda comfy, and you can hold a controller and touch at the same time

Mop it up · « **Reply #411 on:** June 06, 2011, 08:10:37 PM »

That actually isn't a bad idea, though a controller like that seems pretty expensive. I hope that Nintendo isn't going to abandon their philosophy of affordability, though the 3DS price worries me that they are.

ThePerm · « **Reply #412 on:** June 06, 2011, 08:21:20 PM »

idk it seems line Nintendo abandoned affordability with wii, wii was 249, 3ds is 249. I like my consoles to start at 200 or less. If cafe is awesome enough though, it ends up getting bought anyhow. This is a recession so not as many people had money as they did in 2006, but the competitors have released systems at prices 300 and up and still sold systems in the double digits of millions. I like the idea of a touchscreen, and I like motion control. Now they could release a system with 2 types of controllers, but that plays with adobtability. Its a sticky situation.Also, its hard to say how much a controller like that would cost, but im guessing about $80. Nintendo gets a great deal because they single handedly payed to mass produce touch screens in a volume that lowered their price in the entire computer industry.

"Hey hey IGN boardies, Lucas here checking in from the IGN War Room at E3. It's time to get hyped, Nintendo fans. I think you're going to be very pleased with what you're going to see very soon! I could give you guys a clue, but you'd have to chase me down. You guys have some great guesses. I think that clue is all I can offer right now, but I'll be back with another nugget sometime before the Nintendo's briefing kicks off tomorrow morning."

I hope someone actually chases him down too.

F Zero?

the asylum · « **Reply #415 on:** June 06, 2011, 09:28:29 PM »

If we do actually get a tradtional-styled controller with Cafe, chances of new F-Zero soon just skyrocketed

Come on Ninty, it's been eight long, long, years since GX

cubist · « **Reply #416 on:** June 06, 2011, 09:31:01 PM »

Going to break out GX right about now...and then some Pikmin...giddy like a school girl right now 'cause we have to wait until tomorrow morning.

ThePerm · « **Reply #417 on:** June 06, 2011, 10:50:27 PM »

its been 8 years since gx? wow time flies

Stogi · « **Reply #418 on:** June 06, 2011, 10:54:04 PM »

I still play that single player trial where you have to dodge incoming rocks and beat Samurai Goroh. It's always intense.

Ceric · « **Reply #419 on:** June 06, 2011, 11:09:34 PM »

F-Zero GX breaks my Cube so I never progressed. I need to do it on Wii.

Wow. Vita - a 3DS Killer?!

Enner · « **Reply #421 on:** June 07, 2011, 01:38:05 AM »

I'll wait and see with Vita. The only thing I'm certain of is that it will push up Nintendo's price cutting schedule on the 3DS. Still, I don't expect anything to happen until after this Christmas and after Vita launches. In any case, the US$249.99 Playstation Vita has made the handheld console space very interesting.

Lots of rumblings that GTAV is being announced at Nintendo's conference tomorrow. Think it's true?

BranDonk Kong · « **Reply #423 on:** June 07, 2011, 08:02:18 AM »

Yeah, the "chase me down" is likely talking about Grand Theft Auto.

Dope.
