E3 2012 discussion with Wii U information.

Wait wait, did they FINALLY "officially" announce Pikmin 3? I know it's been unofficially announced multiple times over the years...

Snip
Microsoft -> Sony -> EA/Ubisoft -> Nintendo

I agree with your pros and cons on Nintendo unfort :/ but most of Microsoft's pro's are multi platform (aside from Halo)..

My Ranking: Ubisoft-->Sony/Nintendo-->Microsoft/EA

Edit: Soo glad they are having the Black Wii U at launch..even though I might not get it until more games come out. I rather not wait another year for a stupid color change

I didn't watch the stream lol, so I would never know.
Good to see it finally announced though.

I like how the comments are all about the graphics.

Ubisoft and Nintendo were a tie, then Sony, Microsoft and then EA because they showed absolutely nothing interesting and at least Microsoft showed some footage from good multiplat games.

>expecting anything else from average gamer

Like everyone else I was expecting more from Nintendo. They still won the show. They needed a bigger game, but like Reggie said, we already know about the WiiU Zelda and Smash Bros game.

Project P-100 is actually looking like one of the best launch titles.

Honestly, I wasn't expecting a Zelda game. I don't know why anyone was. Zelda games usually take ~2 years after development starts before anything pops up about it. Skyward Sword's development started in 2006, after Twilight Princess was put on shelves. The information about it didn't start coming out until 2008 or 2009 and it didn't pop up at E3 until... 2010?


I was hoping for a new Metroid, though... I wonder what Retro Studios has been working on that hasn't been announced.

Just so you guys know, there are still plenty of games to be revealed even outside of the 3DS conference. Lots of pomegranate on the showfloors.

No Metroid. Oh well

Then again there's still the 3DS conference tomorrow so I still have hope! I still liked everything Nintendo showed as opposed to most everyone else. Atleast it had games. 1st party games at that.

Nothing interesting for 3DS either aside from what we've already seen.

 All Wii U launch titles

Watchdogs Is gonna be on Ps3, Wii as well as P.C.

Oh heck yes. Your using a remote system while trying to remotely kill people with technology

Watchdogs Is gonna be on Ps3, Wii as well as P.C.

I'm trying to figure out where you got that info. I keep seeing PS3, 360 and PC with no mention of WiiU.

>expecting anything else from average gamer

True.
The P100 thing's being bashed to hell and back for being graphically challenged but it actually doesn't look bad at all. :\

Oh boy, only like 3 games I give a pomegranate about for the Wii U lol...
Not really surprising.

If they announce any good titles in the 3DS conference tomorrow, can someone tag me in a post mentioning them? Can't be up at some ridiculous time to watch conference in the morning on an exam day .

Its probably from those "PC MASTERRACE DIRTY CONSOLE FEGS" guys. PC graphics are fucking awesome, but its no reason to snuff out a game just because it doesn't look like something you're used too.

Also, its PLATINUM GAMES. Their stuff is always top-tier.

Yeah, that's the one unfortunate part. The only reason I thought Microsoft did better was because of how excited I got from seeing all the footage, on top of the timed DLC for pretty much everything. If we were ranking them by first-party titles, I would say... Sony->Ubisoft->Nintendo->EA->Microsoft. Then again, they're all opinions.

I also kind of find it funny how Microsoft keeps coming in and pretty much taking Nintendo's ideas. Actually, it's hilarious. They come in and create a better, more accurate motion control, then they come in and show off SmartGlass.
