Last minute predictions:WHOA. Wait, you think there's going to be a STARFOX game at E3? That's nuts.
- The Grinder will be announced for both the Wii and Wii U.
- Conduit 3 reveal trailer will be shown and it will be for the Wii U.
- Biggest prediction of all: Star Fox will be shown and it will be developed by Retro Studios, but ti will not be a launch titile.
Why doesn't Nintendo just get 'em to develop a new Super Mario RPG? It's been like 15 years, Paper Mario is a biiiit played out and Kingdom Hearts itself has certainly seen a fair amount of sequels and side stories.Three words: Mushroom Kingdom Hearts. I would eat that shite up.
Or, to set the universe on fire, a Nintendo character cross-over RPG orgy-fest that centers on Geno the stellar dimension-hopping puppet badass.
THAT is the fusion saga I be wantin.
I'm not saying the Wii's lineup isn't good; as I said somewhere else on these forums today, it's probably my favorite home console I've ever owned, but it still could have been significantly better with some of these changes.Well, I agree with that, for the most part.
Agreed. I think the fact that they're having a discussion with Eguchi shows that they want to set the record straight. They've been unwilling to discuss the hardware up to this point because they don't want their competition knowing what they've got and they just didn't want to discuss it before a major event like this.I have to Disagree. Why host a session like that if you didn't mean to answer those type of questions? They could have easily had Iwata speak and him say that he had full confidence in his engineers and that they handled the performance specs.Nintendo put up their Nintendo All-Access @ E3 2012 page just a few minutes ago.Eguchi is billed as the WiiU Hardware Developer.

Nintendo E3 Presentation: Tuesday, June 5 @ 9 a.m. PDT
Developer Discussion with Katsuya Eguchi: Tuesday, June 5 @ 11:30 p.m. PDT
Software Showcase: Wednesday, June 6 @ 6 p.m. PDT
Speculate.
I speculate he will be asked many questions about WiiU specs that he will not answer, because Nintendo does not discuss hardware specs. I speculate the session will be painful, with many awkward silences. Maybe it will end early.
Golden Sun 3DS (God I love that game)Yeah, the thing I keep forgetting is that the 3DS is going to have a hefty lineup for the rest of the year/some newly announced titles that are going to hit us hard. Paper Mario, NSMB2, Luigi's Mansion 2, and probably one or two new big titles (I am also hoping for a quality Metroid title, Zelda's a bit more of a stretch). Plus, dat third party support. Give me Monster Hunter 4 localization, baby, and I will guarantee my 3DS won't leave my hands for months.
New Super Mario Bros. 2
Metroid For 3DS/Wii U
New StarFox for 3DS (I think that game works better as a handheld)
Paper Mario 3DS (I've been waiting two years Nintendo)
Monolithsofts Wii U and 3DS games (Xenoblade was awesome)
Zelda for 3DS (No remakes. Remakes are rude)
Pikmin 3
Super Smash bros. 4.

My body will be ready.
Iwata, Reggie...Time to drop the bomb.
Classic Controller Pro + Gamecube controller + wireless technology + NES d-pad = The greatest controller ever created in the history of time.Are... are you implying that the Wii U controller has that?
I posted this else where, but about the Retro rumor...here is my thoughts.I am thinking of something along the lines of Star Wars Battlefront, but a little more story driven. You'd have missions with different vehicles and such available to you, or maybe you could have a Slippy science bay and upgrade to new tech, all while trying to route out the enemy. Almost RTS esque, but from a third person perspective... and depending on how you want the multiplayer to be, the story could either only focus on Team Fox, or it could introduce a galactic defense force to buff your numbers a bit.
This is a pretty stupid rumor...I don't believe it.
Unless, they took the Metroid leap too literal.
If they said the gameplay Started as a standard Star Fox mission and Fox McCloud was stranded on a planet...and he sends his team off to finish the battle while we repairs his ship I would buy it.
Then you would have Fox playing the part of explore trying to find make shift parts to repair his ship...all along while being on a hostile alien planet...potentially being controlled by Andros's Army.
Now, that would be a cool game. Mix in exploring and shooting action...as well as tight space control. And even allow Fox to jump into vehicles for combat would be great...
But more importantly...this could be Nintendo asking Retro to create a bigger universe for Star Fox for the express purpose of multiplayer.
Imagine, If Retro designed an all out robust Star Fox battle system for 8-16 players online...with Star Fox Tank, and Ar-Wing battles as well as well designed on foot combat.
Now that would be an Epic game.
