E3 2010

[kingkoopa]

So who here watched the Nintendo E3 Conference this year? There seemed to be a lack of Mario there but it was strongly hinted (more like confirmed) that they are making a new Mario Kart for the 3DS and a Mario Sports Mix for the Wii. They also revealed a new Zelda, Kirby, Metroid: Other M, a new Golden Sun, a new Donkey Kong Country, a Goldeneye remake, a new Kid Icarus for 3DS, a Paper Mario for the 3DS, a Star Fox remake and many more games. Link to all of this here: e3.nintendo.com

Paper Mario, Kirby and DKC look sweet.

I'm a little disappointed at the fact that they changed the character proportions in the new Animal Crossing. They don't look cute anymore.

Mario Sports Mix doesn't really do anything for me. Most of the Mario sports titles are rather...mediocre, so I'm assuming this one will be more of the same.

The 3DS is so tiny! D:

Edit: Also, Epic Mickey.

Call me a traitor, but I didn't care to have any new Mario games. After all, wejust got Galaxy 2. My biggest excitement however, is Donkey Kong Country Returns.

The 3DS looks awesome, as expected.

[Le Mario Bro]

Get the **** out of here...

Seriously though, I'm pretty excited for this new Paper Mario, after all that platforming agony I had with Super Paper Mario.

You guys should know. I had my copy of SMG2 the first day it came out, and you two got 120 stars on it already... (I'm catching up, though. I got around 105.)

Were those asterisks directed at me?

I really don't blame you, but you have to admit that Galaxy isn't that long of a game. Plus, its not like that new Paper Mario is coming out any time soon. They haven't even finished the 3DS yet! Donkey Kong Country Returns really got me into hype mode. The second I heard Bongo playing I'm like No... and then I hear the original DKC music and I start jumping up and down on the couch until the preview finished

[SMBBQ]

Yep, when I saw the trailer I was like, "JOYGASM!"

[shadowgoomba]

This conference had pretty much everything I could possibly ask for. It's like they took a fan's wishlist and just did all of it. I love it.

[SMBBQ]

Soooo, how 'bout that GoldenEye remake? I'll definitely be buying it. Anyone else?

[shadowgoomba]

The company that made it also made The World is Not Enough, which I didn't like very much.
Still, it has potential.

[EpicGyllynn]

The World is Not Enough? Sorry, never heard of it.

Are you talking about "The World Ends With You?"

I like all the Mario stuff revealed, especially Paper Mario (I'm so glad that they returned to RPG format). Kirby's Epic Yarn doesn't look too good to be, and I wish that Kirby could inhale, fly, and gain powers from his enemies.

[kingkoopa]

He still seems to have powers, and it is a little too early to say that he won't inhale or fly. (Although it does seem like his yarn whip will replace eating)

[EpicGyllynn]

I'm psyched for the 3DS... oh.. Better than GameCube Graphics... New kid Icarus... 3D no glasses... Best 3rd Party lineup EVER... NEW MARIO KART!! Oh, sorry guys, I'm still pumped from E3. Best E3 Ever! Am I right?

[SMBBQ]

Yup, this was a great E3 for Nintendo. And seemingly lackluster for Sony and Microsoft.

[kingkoopa]

Lol Microsoft fell flat on their face this E3 and we got to see Sony try to copy the Wii's motion controls

[EpicGyllynn]

Well, at least Sony is copying New Tech(Wii MotionPlus), while Microsoft is copying Last-Gen Technology(EyeToy), and throwing in a few enhancements! Plus, at least with the Wii you've got a Controller, but with Kinect you're just flailing your arms around like an Idiot! Also, I'm tired of Sony bashing Nintendo, and then saying Nintendo shouldn't bash Them! Like, right after E3, Sony said that Nintendo shouldn't bash Glasses 3D, because they need to work together to advance Gaming! When only a few months ago, they mocked the Wii in their Move Trailer, and made the claim that they where creating the first 1-1 Motion Controls, when Nintendo did that a year earlier(WM+)! I didn't mean to go on a Mini-Rant, but Sony and MS make me so mad sometimes(I own a Wii, 360, and PS3, I play the Wii most, and I play the PS3 a little, but I haven't played my 360 in a year.)!

[Koopalmier]

At least Microsoft is a respectful rival to Nintendo. While Sony keeps trolling Nintendo like idiots and is far behind Ninten and Micro when it comes to game sales and the money they win.

I simply can't wait for Paper Mario 4.
