Last year was going to be all about the 3 next generation systems...and really all 3 companies disappointed with their showing. The biggest surpise was how underwhelming Microsoft's showing was even though they were launching that same year.
Now MS is in full steam and must show the world its system can contend with the PS3. Sony must show the world that its new system can do everything promised and bake waffles.
And finally, Nintendo must make a presence that is felt by the entire gaming world, and show that their Revolution really will be a Revolution in gaming.
This E3 is the biggest most exciting E3 for me because of the drama between all 3 major hardware systems out.
It is also Nintendo's most important E3. They will be sending a message to the world with their new DS games and exciting Revolution system.
I would do anything to be able to be apart of this E3 and the Soap Opera to come.

I honestly expect to say wow. Perhaps numerous times.

It's apparent Nintendo, Sony, and MS will be crashing down a hillside in a roaring ball of garbage this year. We're not looking for the sequel to Mario64 (that'll not show up at launch). We're not looking for the Zelda Spaceworld hoped-was-a-real-game-demo (and turned out to be nothing BLOL SURPRISE! CELDA! BLOL).
Personally, I'm excited for the games-that-aren't-typically-expected-nintendo-franchises.
I'm looking at you, Suda51.

I never hoped that piece of blandness was real. But, apparently, I'm in the minority.
Anyway, personally, I was looking forward to the StarCube (I have a need to use that name whenever possible) unveiling a little bit more. ...But that was spaceworld, wasn't it? Yeah, then, I guess I'd have to say this is my most anticipated e3.

Close man. She is due, but not that day.
This E3 is going to be one of the most interesting because of this new direction Nintendo is taking.

Is Reggie married? Anyone know. With my luck his wife be due too so we wouldn't get a Reggie smack down that we all are so looking forward to. I couldn't even get mad at him if that was the case.

QuotePssh, whose fault is that? I mean, 9 months ago he should have known that it would be E3 time
Though that totally stinks. I mean the baby has to pick that particular week to be around due.

Although I am highly anticipating this year's E3, I don't think any E3 will beat 2001 for me. Not only was it a hardware wars year, I also got to tag along with buddy who had press credentials (he did the video game column for the UNLV paper and also wrote for Nintendojo and he IS Loudhouse2)! w00t!
Post by: JonLeung on April 26, 2006, 03:26:32 PM
I remember really getting really excited about the GameCube just from the information I was finding on the 'net. Those E3 videos were awesome. An E3 before a new system launch is going to have a lot of hype, so of course those are the hard ones to top. With next-to-nothing seen of actual Revolution games (other than some fuzzy scans of Red Steel), we can probably expect to see a lot of them at E3, so it's more exciting than any old year with a few plain old new games. (If that makes sense. :P) New system! New control scheme! (No booth babes? Not an issue!)
But, again, I'm actually going, so HA!</immature gloat> Unfortunately I probably won't have much of a chance to be online at all until I get home. so by the time I write up anything, everyone will be tired of all the other hands-on impressions of the Revolution on the Internet.

I know I'M going to enjoy the Wii..I'm content with what is already known about it. Other people still need convincing. The vids of press members playing Wii on the show floor will make-or-break the buying decision of the people on the Internet who are undecided. But, more importantly...
E3 kiosks = what instore demo kiosks will be like
How do you demonstrate a wireless dual-motion capture device?
If Nintendo has sucessfully answered that question, we'll find out at the show. The answer will determine whether non-gamers will say "WOW!" or "Meh..." after trying it (in-store).

Sadly, I won't even be able to do my standard "refresh the page all day" since I have an exam during the Nintendo press conference!
