TalkBack / Re: Is Q2 2011 Really That Bad?
« on: April 10, 2011, 02:02:04 PM »
Nintendo is handling the 3DS with a "launch-window" approach. Like it or not, this does mean they are not giving it a traditional launch-week treatment, and as a result we don't get anything focused outside of the 3DS from Nintendo for Q2. Aside from a couple announcements prior to it, the fans are being assured that "there are still lots of games to come. I’m sure you’ll see at this year’s E3." Again, like it or not, we will probably have to wait until at least the end of May before anything is heard.
I'll also remind the readers that Captivate was last week and details about 6 games will be released on Tuesday. Four are already known: Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D (it has a demo of Revelations, for the record), Street Fighter X Tekken, Asura's Wrath and Resident Evil Operation Raccoon City. However unlikely it might be, at least one of those two games could be a Wii title.
One more thing: It's been said before that Reggie just tossed out a random number with his "45-million units" quote, and I tend to believe it. After all, it goes against their message of "we always start work on the next home console as soon as the previous one's released." Even with that in mind, I doubt that there will be any announcement this year of a new console aside from a "speaking of which, we're working on our next console" line @ E3. I call it a Revolution-esque quote.
[/size]The rumor mill seems to keep coming up with Monster Hunter 3DS being a possibility, but that has yet to be seen.

I thought I was the only one who was hearing the "Guardia Millenial Fair" theme in Pilotwings Resort's plane mode. Glad to know I'm not crazier than usual.
